It'll take a lot more than Obama, the media, the Right Wing, & a small army to make Hillary quit
so enough with this silly notion that she should pack it all in just because she lost some dinky little state, Obama dreamers.

This isn't Mary Poppins you're dealing with. It's the Goddess of Peace and she won't go away without a fight.

Well, it's off to Texas and Ohio where she'll be rolling up the sleeves, kicking some ass, and VOILA!...another momentum shift to give all you dreamers a few nightmares...just to make the race interesting. :smoke:

2. Yup - it will take the superdelegates who will start calling her tomorrow
and tell her it's time to let Obama go head-to-head with McCain.

18. That comment is offensive in light of her POLITICALLY MOTIVATED IWR vote!
Tell that to the families of many soldiers who have died in Bush's war which she enabled him to start by giving him the authority with her big AOK!

Goddess of Peace?

I'm sorry, but you are misguided.

43. That comment is directed to the OP
He called her the Goddess of Peace. The poster you responded to was expressing their disgust. Just an FYI.

9. "some dinky little state"

Nice..... they'll remember that kind of sentiment in November, should Hillary steal this nomination.


I don't expect her to quit. It's not in her nature. Everything is about HER, not about what's best for the nation. Always has been, always will be.


It's not in HER best interest to quit, so she won't. Which is fine.


"Plagiarism-gate" blew up in her face.

Next week's "gate-du-jour" that her campaign cooks up will blow up in her face as well.


Stay in it Hillary... destroy every last vestige of respect that the Clinton "brand" has in the Democratic party.

Go for it.

15. LOL! This post made my night!
The "Goddess of Peace" won't go away without a fight? Do you have any idea how silly that statement is? Also, calling a state "dinky" just because a slight majority voted against your candidate is just petty. I don't call you an idiot just because you type idiotic posts.

took her for granted, and made her look like a fool for 30 years for this and it is slipping away.

21. It is a HUGE win for Obama tonight.
The exit polling is devastating for Clinton(s).

Eleven victories in a row and almost half of all the states won by Obama.

The polls further indicate that Obama is on the way to win Ohio and Texas, too.

This is now going to be less about the likelihood of an Obama nomination, and more about how sad Hillary and Bill Clinton will look if they cannot understand that they have lost.

will sue for Michigan and Florida. As painful as that would be I don't doubt it for a minute.

27. The last I saw was that Obama was beating her by about 50 delegates.
Right now Obama is beating her in WI by 13% with 21% of the districts supporting.

This race is still close, and there are alot of people that say that - not here, not on msnbc -
it's not over.

And there is a debate on Thurs to look forward to.

36. If that's the best he can do at this juncture, I think he could be in serious trouble
He still could pull it out, but I doubt it. Anyway, we can't really blame all the Obama supporters for being so worried about his chances.

33. Right, they will have to drag her out of the convention hall kicking and screaming.
And that is one of the things that is wrong with the Clintons right now. They will do anything, legal or moral or not, to try to steal this nomination. And that's one of the reasons why I am supporting Obama and why he will ultimately win this nomination in spite of whatever dirty tricks that the Clintons come up with.
