In a last-ditch effort to “count all the votes,” Senator Hillary Clinton today demanded that she be granted “half” of the delegates given to her husband when he became the Democratic nominee in 1992. The New York senator says that under community property laws she is entitled to “half of everything her husband owns.”
On the morning after a disappointing showing in North Carolina and Indiana, Mrs. Clinton struggled to put the arithmetic together that could get her the nomination. Since Mr. Clinton was nominated by “acclamation,” at the 1992 convention, the Clinton campaign would garner more than enough delegates to put Mrs. Clinton over the top. Senator Barrack Obama reached at a North Carolina basketball court says his lawyers assure him that Mrs. Clinton has “a better chance of getting delegates out of Florida and Michigan,” than claiming any of the former Presidents’s nominating glory.
Meanwhile, Senator John McCain separated himself further from the Bush administration by blasting the incumbent’s handling of the Spanish Armada after the attack on the USS Maine in the Havana harbor. “When was the last time Mr. Bush remembered the Maine?” McCain said at a gathering of the Daughters of the American Revolution. “I can assure you that I am ready to become commander-in-chief and that the next time it rains in Spain, it will rain on McCain!”
McCain aides immediately assisted the secretary to his afternoon nap place.
If you’d rather go see live comedy than your nap place this weekend, make a point of visiting Dwight Slade at the Mainstage Comedy and Music Club. Slade performs shows Wednesday through Saturday at 8 pm. Saturday evening, enjoy an extra late show at 10:30 pm. Remember, if you are married, all tickets to weekend shows become community property — so bring your spouse!
