CNN announced Hillary Clinton will suspend her campaign on Saturday

A lot of speculation and even articles had been saying that Hillary Clinton was ending her campaign on Friday.

Adam Nagourney was the only who called Clinton's move a suspension and just a few hours ago they update their post to reflect the news coming out of CNN --that indeed Hillary Clinton is suspending her campaign. Yet, just in crazy making, pyschological space hogging fashion, some insiders say she's "expressing her support and party unity" to Barack Obama while others are saying she conceding defeat.

I don't trust her.

I don't doubt it was her intention all along to have yet another big event after Tuesday so she could take away from Obama 4 more days of enthusiasm and focus.

I don't doubt either that she's going to use this moment to show her force and draw the line on the sand as far as the VP nomination goes. And because she gets to keep all her delegates, she'll use that as a way to steal the show from Obama come August.

I have no doubt at all that she'll want as much air and party time during the convention as Obama and that's why I don't trust her to do the right thing on Saturday.

As I wrote before, Hillary Clinton needs to unleash her psychological violence onto others, even as she considers herself a victim of circumstance. It's what gives her a sense of purpose.

She's going to use Saturday to focus the spotlight on her, once again, and even maybe get Obama on the stage with her so she can make her terrible, horrible and self-serving case to be VP.

WHATEVER IT TAKES

Once again we see the cunning of the Clinton machine in action. Hillary, by making herself open to be VP, has figured the odds of Obamas early demise. She is banking on stepping into the Presidency after another tragic assassination. She will stop at nothing to become Queen Hillary.

QUOTES

Sometimes it feels satisfying. But more often it seems ineffective and pointless. This blog has been more my platform for venting than an actual tool of change --lazy activism, if you will. Or maybe it's just that my interest in seeing the world change has been replaced by a deep cynicism about whether that change will happen. It takes a lot of energy to sustain anger against a cultural machine. And that anger is starting to feel more futile and self-defeating. I mean, how many times and in how many ways can you say "Fuck racists. Fuck sexists. Fuck rich people. Fuck community-destroying trolls. Fuck Republicans."?
