Re: The problem is
Hillary did not lose. She was literally forced out by the DNC. She was forced to not say anything that would "hurt" Obama, and then forced out of the race---as she was winning. Count the popular vote first.
Now, lets have the superdelegates follow the "will of the people" as Donna Brazile wanted. Have every single superdelegate from every single state that each of them won vote for the candidate that won her state. All of the superdelegates---Carter from Georgia will vote for Obama, Gore from Tennessee for Hillary and so on.
Now...count the delegate tally...ok? Just count it, and tell me what the new number is.
She didn't lose!!!
As to Roe: I am pro-choice. We will have a Democratic senate and they can reject any anti choice judges. But-----if Democrats are so eager to defend Roe, why did Democrats support Robers and Alito??? The would never have been confirmed without help from....Yup, Democrats.
And as a signal to anti choicers, Sen. Bob Casey has a speaking slot at the Democratic Convention...sigh....
The politics of fear aren't going to work. Not this time.
If not Hillary, then MCain.
Grow up yourself pod
IF your kool aid freak candidate had been forced to endure even one day of the sexist humilition that Hillary Clinton did he would have run home to his gramdma in kansas. We are angry because Hillary Clinton was abused and denigrated and disrespected. And we have every right to vote or not vote for whoever we choose. Now the empty suit adds insult to injury by picking Joe Biden. He thinks cause Biden was born in Scranton and can ape Hillary he will get the blue collar vote for him. I dint think I could get any more angry. I was wrong. I wouldnt vot for him if he was standing between me and an angry mob. Grow up yourself loser.
The problem is
to Grownup and overit:
The attitude of the Obama camp is arrogant and seems to me fearful of someone as strong as Hillary Clinton. The DNC and the media backed the wrong candidate. That is now obvious. Obama could never ask Hillary to be VP. He does not have the confidence to swing it. So whine on and blame the Hillary supporters when McCain wins in November.
Is it above Sen. Obama's pay grade to comment at all on the shockingly low poll numbers he's gathering as result of the dissatisfied HRCO supporters and Pumas? It shouldn't be.
His anorexic resume was submitted for the Top Job. He should start getting off his Celebrity Pedestal and walk with the hoi polloi who'll be doing the bloody interview: Voters!
Periodically, Obama feels low and starts launching attacks...But precious should be more consistent and understand that passive-aggressive behavious confuses voters.
Ah, well, sweetie will have to way till November to get his grade from the pumas who by now have viewed his major references:
Youtube's mega hit: 'OBAMA GIVES HILLARY THE F!NGER"--his scratching (Hill) off his shoes and dusting her off his shoulders is sooooo uncool and between the movement of his midfinger and his zygomaticus muscle he lost the election.
Sweetie, you should go back and try to work on your homework...
Obama lost my vote
I was an Obama supporter up until I saw his performance at Saddleback. He totally stumbled all over himself. At least John McCain was direct and to the point. I have really been doing a bunch of research on each candidate after Hillary dropped out. There is just way too much supporting documentation that shows how Obama supports a Communist ideal for this country. No way! He was also the only one that voted against a bill that would offer medical care for an infant that survived late term abortion. That is really disgusting in my mind. I think Hillary supporters REALLY need to look in depth at both the candidates and not just rely on the ads. Obama lost my vote. I was really bothered about Rev. Wright but I tried to move past it. After deep thought, I have realized either Obama believes everything Wright was saying, or he is completely ignorant. Not good in either scenario.
rePUMA:
Hey Bonnie Whiny,
Getover It!!! I'm voting McCain. YOU don't dictate that Hillary supporters vote Obama. Go back to baking cookies you limo- liberal
Hillaary's Die Hard Supporters, are they broke?
Please explain to me that if Hillary has 18 million die hard uneducated supporters vying for her as veep or threatening to vote for McCain, why won't they at least donate one dollar and get her out of debt. Where are these supporters. According from past reports from CNN Hillary the majority of HIllary supporters are uneducated. Umh, they can hollar loud but can't produce a dollar. Obama supporters support him financially. Hillary supporters need to put up or shut up. Obama does not need Hillary to win the Presidency. This should be beneath the Clinton's to want to live downstairs when they have lived up stairs. Where's the class?
re:the problem is
Well, "she lost, now get over it!" would be fine, IF the process had been fair. But anyone with half a brain knows it was not. Further, it would be Fine, IF we were not abandoning the most qualified, most proven, most intelligent candidate for..well for one who is very, very scarey. Oh yeah, and it would be ok, IF we were not now living with a president who was not chosen by the people...and we see where that got us. Hillary Clinton's 18 million votes, more than ANY other candidate, ever (yes more than Obama has now), make the IF even bigger. It's really easy to say, "I won now YOU go home", when you get your way. But for the good of the American People, it sure seems that we need to look deeper this time.
Though I am a New Yorker, I agree totally what they say about Obama in Texas...he's all hat and no cattle. It says it all.
This is important folks, this is our lives, our children's lives, and probably thier children's lives as well. We can't just jump on a bandwagon because it's "cool". What has the man accomplished, ever? Watch the news? Even his people cannot name one thing! It was embarrassing for them. But I took no joy in that, only fear. I say let the people be heard. At least save us from the next time.
No Writein
If you write in Hillary, Joe Biden or anyone elses name for that matter in some states the vote will go to the candidate--in this case Obama. Be very careful!!!
