Please, honestly, please, HRC supporters - share the strategy.
I totally want to know. I promise, I won't jeer or criticize. I am just
so damn curious.

Tell me exactly how you see her winning?

1) Popular vote, somehow?

2) A major, major O gaffe?

3) Some new poll that no one can dispute - that he can not ever, ever win?

4) VP?

5) Some rules/credentials monkey business?

I am serious as a heart attack. I know, there are many among us who love
her and want her to be the nominee.

But, I haven't yet heard any concrete strategy to pull it off.

What are you placing all your eggs in her basket for?

4. But, honestly, what does it prove? Isn't it rather demeaning? Like I
think of Tiki Barber - got out at the height of
his career(ugh bad example -- the year after
her got out the Giants win the SB)

5. A combination of 2 and 3, plus the fact that ---
neither of the candidates can win without SuperD support, and SuperDs are free to vote however they wish at the Convention, even if they have publicly "pledged" support to one candidate or another.

So I think the plan is to stick it out, hopefully with a nice final victory in Puerto Rico, then just to sit back through the long summer. By the end of August, perhaps some large O-gaffe plus polls that show Hillary to be far more electable will give Hillary a chance in Denver.

6. Puh-leeze. Like it's not perfectly obvious the purpose of your post is to rub it in?
