Obama supporters, I've got three words for you: GET OVER YOURSELVES.
Some basic facts:
1.) Obama is not the Party's nominee. The Party won't select their nominee until the Convention at the end of August.
2.) Until the Convention, the superdelegates' votes mean nothing. In fact, until the Convention, even the pledged delegates' votes mean little. It's how they vote at the Convention that counts.
3.) Superdelegates' votes are not on-record until the Convention. Until then, anything goes! What the superdelegates do at the Convention is subject to the ever-shifting political landscape--which could turn at a moment's notice on a dime.
4.) Do you really want the Rethug 527 machines to start letting loose sooner rather than later? Keep shifting the conversation to the revisionist concept that, unbeknownst to myself and tens of millions of Clinton supporters, somehow, Obama's already won the Party's nod.
Obama is not the Democratic Party's nominee; and he won't be the nominee until the Convention.
He will not be the Democratic Party's nominee unless and until he attains the necessary votes to close the nomination come Convention time. Until then, at best he's:
a.) Someone with not enough pledged votes to guarantee he's the Party's nominee;
b.) Involved in the most closely contested Democratic Party nomination fight since at least 1964;
c.) Someone whom--maybe in a few weeks--might be referred to as the likely nominee, or the frontrunner for the nomination, but he's not the Democratic Party's nominee.
So, all you folks taking up the Obama and MSM meme that somehow, Obama has enough votes to win this thing now, come to your senses. The guy doesn't have enough votes to close the deal! And, for all intents and purposes, superdelegates can hem and haw all they want about "support," but as we've all seen--even in recent days--that is subject to the political weather forecast, too!
So, stop acting like this thing is over. It's not over. It won't be over, until it's over. And, that's not until the end of August.
Because every time an Obama supporters postures in this manner, they're simply disaffecting us Hillary supporters with a bunch of make-believe drivel, that has nothing to do with reality.
Reality: There's a good chance Obama will be the Democratic nominee. But, that is it. Period. End of story. To posture in any other manner is both fictitious and disaffecting.
