It's over and Obama is the nominee. Hillary, it's time.
You had your fun, you gave it a chance, but it's over. Watching NC stay at a 20% margin and the gap close to 6% in Indiana, it's time to realize (if you hadn't already) that the race is over. Barack is now the nominee presumptive and should be treated as such. An attack on him is an attack on the Democratic presidential candidate. Hillary can do no good by harming or weakening the nominee for OUR party.

Get behind the Democratic candidate or go support McCain.

1. I despise Obama. I'll sit this November's vote out.
1st time in all my years. I'll not vote for the man. Better to stay home and ignore the next 4 years if he's the nominee.

10. Why do you despise him?
I admit I have supported Obama from the beginning, but I also like Hillary and said I would vote for her if she was the nominee. My feelings towards her have changed, I hate the way she has run her campaign and her negative campaigning. But, even with that, I would still vote for her as a vote against McCain. I won't like it, but I know he would be worse. My question to you, is why do you have so much hatred for Obama. He has not attacked your candidate the way we have watched ours attacked. So, why would you rather have McCain as president?

14. Worse than McCain? Worse than Bush's 3rd term?
You are deranged or Republican, which is the same thing. Come back before it's too late.

18. Please don't
I have supported Hillary from the start and is the only candidate I have ever donated $ to. I really thought that she would be the better candidate (after Biden and Richardson dropped out)becasue she is a hard ass and would take on problems with more tenacity, but the majority of democrats disagree with me. Barack is a good man. He is sooooo superior to McCain that I can't understand anyone voting for him over Hillary or Barack. Please think about the ramifications of a President McCain.

7. As a Hillary supporter from the start
Edited on Tue May-06-08 08:23 PM by Lebam in LA
I have to agree. I would have voted for either one of them, but I really think that dragging this on any longer, does start to hurt our chances in November (even though if I think a ham sandwich could beat gramps). We need to start focusing on gramps.

17. Thank you!
We need to see that this battle is over but the war is just beginning.

Like him or not, Obama accurately portrayed a McCain presidency: a third Bush term.
