Clinton Will Use Ron Paul Delegate Strategy To Clinch Nomination

Just as Ron Paul will harness confusion at the Republican National Convention to convert supposedly “pledged” delegates to his uplifting cause, Hillary Clinton will do the same on the Democratic side. A senior Clinton adviser told Politico’s Roger Simon, the guy who looks a bit like Henry Waxman except without the insane nose, that if forced the Clinton campaign would pursue the votes of pledged delegates—those assigned based on the results of primaries and caucuses.

“This time, one candidate may enter the convention leading by just a few pledged delegates, and those delegates may find themselves being promised the sun, moon and stars to switch sides,” Simon writes today.

The great unmentioned stalking horse in this whole debate is Mike Gravel, who will in the end persuade every delgate pledged to Clinton or Obama to come to his side, leading to an apocalyptic Gravel versus Paul ‘08 election throwdown in which no one wins … except America.

A Paul vs. Gravel would be the greatest run ever. I mean, of course I love Paul 100x better, but at least the Democrat runner wouldn't be someone horrible.

I used to be a Gravel supporter, and for the record, these are not press releases, these are messages written by supporters on the campaign blog. I am not sure if this was one was written by a supporter, as it has quotes in it, therefore; I think it might have been an article from a newspaper, at least part of it.

I hope it works for Gravel and Paul, then Paul would win a landslide.

Hilarious. The only confusion is from those thinking the official Paul campaign ever had a delegate strategy! :p

If there's any truth to this story, I guess we're looking towards an Obama nomination.

between ralph nader + ron paul, there could be pressure on the
two main contenders to have at least a four-way set of debates
