[NJSecularist]

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Big win for Hillary in Indiana, and she goes on to West Virginia.

[The Ghost]

1. BIG ?!?!?!?!??!?!!

[jillan]

69. As Obama says "A win is a win".

[kid a]

2. funny thread

[kid a]

7. its over

[still_one]

No money, what is the point to keep it up /nt

[Cali_Democrat]

3. You're spinning like a top (nt)

[alcibiades_mystery]

4. Watching you over the next few weeks will be a joy indeed

:rofl:

[BringBigDogBack]

agreed

[Bread and Circus]

5. LOL.

[Colobo]

6. Are you for real?

[Kittycat]

36. This one is a flipper

was a washboard Obama supporter until PA, then flipped. Probably trying to save face or something.

Let them have their hollow win. It doesn't change the facts.

[Condem]

8. Sorry you changed sides, NJ?

[VeraAgnes]

115. We all are DEMOCRATS!

That's the ONLY SIDE!


Go on now....think about it!:wow:

[TwilightGardener]

9. You're not right in the head. Really. You jumped onto the Titanic as it

was sinking, and now you don't know what to do with yourself. Good luck to you.

[umtalal]

10. You are not for real. n/t

[DontTreadOnMe]

43. Hillary just announced her VP!!! series!!!!

Joe Lieberman :)

In God We Trust -- Obliterate We Must!

Military manufacturing futures are soaring...

[NJSecularist]

This is an thread for Hillary supporters ONLY.

I see a lot of non Hillary supporters here.

[GarbagemanLB]

24. Does that include fair-weather supporters?

[rodeodance]

46. I have never seen you as a Hillary supporter

[Leopolds Ghost]

119. Agreed, he was a terribly "concerned Obama supporter" with an unkind word or two for hillary.

Out to wound Obama from the get-go, I'd say.

[Boz]

27. I support Hillary, Ill even pay for her trip home

[foo_bar]

31. did you know there's a "Hillary Clinton Supporters Group"?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=334

That might be the appropriate place for fan fiction.

[rodeodance]

53. so, this means all the treads that say "obama fans only" will more to the Obama forum. Right!!

[foo_bar]

95. I wouldn't have a problem with that, but we aren't talking about moving (mooring?) t(h)reads

Since the name and history of this forum is "General Discussion..." it seems unreasonable to expect propaganda like "big win for Hillary" to go unremarked upon. In that sense, the Hillary 12-Step Group is the ideal venue for making shit up and not getting called on it. Welcome to DU.

[Jamastiene]

114. If the mods see fit to move it, you can bet they will.

In the meantime, it's not your decision, now, is it?

[foo_bar]

116. did you reply to the wrong post?

I'm not sure how your post relates to mine, since the post above mine raised the extraneous subject of moving threads. I pointed out that it's unreasonable to expect a "cease fire" on GD:P by putting "Hillary Supporters Only" above a flamebait post.

[kwenu]

38. Can we afford to give Hillary any more peace? For the party, she must stop!!!

[JVS]

39. You'd better get used to it. I have a feeling everyone will be Obama supporters soon

[Kittycat]

45. Then post in the Hillary forum.

This is GDP

[rodeodance]

59. then post all your "obama fans only" threads in the Obama Forum also. Stop being a bully

[Kittycat]

64. Not being a bully - just being realistic.

I post "Obama Supporter" threads - and if HRC people want to post in there, then more power to them. But you can't expect to post anything in GDP and have it be exclusive to your wishes.

[rodeodance]

82. Good manners are in short supply here on gd-p. I expect each supporters

threads to be honored and so do many others.


But there are always a few immature people who have no manners.

good bye

[TahitiNut]

94. Such an expectation is nothing but premeditated resentment.

Who died and made you playground boss??

:eyes:

[jgraz]

65. Go to the Hillary forum if you want an echo chamber.

Out here in GDP we're celebrating the presumptive nomination of Barack Obama.

[rodeodance]

84. go to the Obama forum if you want an echo chamber. What a hypocrit you are.

[donheld]

80. You post a funny OP like that and don't think people will react?

Boy are you dreaming.

[shadowknows69]

125. Well when you're owner of this site you can make private forums.

There is a Hillary group is there not? I promise we won't follow you there.

[onenote]

127. if you want a thread for HRC supporters only, find some sort of closed forum

This ain't it...

[greguganus]

128. Then post it in the Hillary forum. n/t

[Fox Mulder]

11. She barely won.

And how can anyone be happy with this shit being dragged on and on and on???

[Exultant Democracy]

12. lol

[cici4691]

13. Meow

She must have been a cat in a former life. Nine lives and all. }(

[Arrowhead2k1]

14. BIG WIN!!! ???

:rofl: Holy fuck, that's pathetic. You people scare me.

[CreekDog]

15. If a tiny victory in IN matters, then all the huge victories in 30+ other states matter more

by measures of votes, delegates, etc.

i just wish you would at least reflect some appreciation of reality.

[Zachstar]

20. Bingo

[GarbagemanLB]

16. When will you be switching back to Obama?

[cici4691]

56. When pigs fly or hell freezes...

whichever comes first.

[Zachstar]

17. Big win? Please PLEASE dont spin. It was a win leave it at that

[washingdem]

18. is this a joke?

[donheld]

19. Big?!

[sfam]

21. Terry Mcauliffe, is that you?

Welcome to DU, Terry! :)

[saltpoint]

22. A thin win by an otherwise defeated candidate.

Even after her "victory" speech, she canceled all public appearances tomorrow.

It's over.

She lost.

[Swamp Rat]

50. Way'at OC!

:hi:

Can you get me up to speed before I hit the books/bed? I have just a few hours of sleep before an exam tomorrow morning. Can't spend it here.

What happened today?

Is Obama officially the nominee?

[saltpoint]

71. Not yet. We drove home from the grocery when the first returns from North

Carolina came over the radio and thru the dashboard -- a huge Obama win projected in NC with LESS than 1% in -- so we knew it would be a very sturdy percentage roll-up for Obama in Carolina, and it was.

At that hour -- maybe 8:00 or so Eastern -- Clinton was leading in Indiana by 35%, although the report did not say what parts of the state that % came from.

Within the hour it was down to maybe 12%. Then by 9:30 or so, maybe 10:00 o'clock, the numbers began to collapse for Clinton and despite CBS projecting her the winner in Indiana, the numbers kept collapsing for her and rising for Obama.

It was announced that Lake County, an Obama-rich stronghold, had not counted even 1 vote by 10:00 p.m., and that they wouldn't even get around to begin counting until an hour or two later.

Within the last 2 hours or so, Obama's number rose and rose and rose in Lake and Monroe Counties, but evidently not quite enough to win.

But. More than enough to knock her out of the race. She gave a victory speech in Indianapolis at the Murat Theater, with Evan Bayh cheerleading the crowd, but even as she spoke, the numbers began to betray her. She lost Tippecanoe County, for example, home of Purdue. She lost Monroe County, home of IU. And she lost Lake County by a landslide. Even in counties where she won, there was a significant show of support for Obama.

During her victory speech, she did touch on unification but the speech overall was lackluster and undynamic, sounding hastily cobbled together by a committee. The Big Dog stood behind her, looking like he'd spent the entire day fucking pumas. He was pale, exhausted, and looked for all the world like he needed someplace to lie down and sleep it off.

Obama's victory speech, in North Carolina, was better written and better delivered. It's up on his site and several blogs if you want to drop in and see how it went. I think you'll like what you hear.

Clinton at last was declared the victor in Indiana, losing Lake County big but not quite by enough to erase gains she made in southern and rural parts of Indiana. She "wins" the Hoosier State, 51-49 with 99% of the votes in, but will do little better than a tie in delegates in Indiana, and will lose the delegate count big in North Carolina, easily erasing her gains in Pennsylvania two weeks ago.

The cancelation of her public appearances tomorrow is an ominous sign for her supporters. There was talk on MSNBC this evening regarding her acknowleding that she's lost, withdrawing from the race, in exchange for the Obama treasury reducing her campaign debts, which are considerable at this point.

It wouldn't surprise me if she held a press conference to withdraw tomorrow, early afternoon.

Christ knows it's long overdue. :hi: :dem:

[Swamp Rat]

106. LOL!

"he'd spent the entire day fucking pumas." :rofl:

"withdrawing from the race, in exchange for the Obama treasury reducing her campaign debts." - That would be extortion. x( Anyway, he needs his campaign money to fight McCain. Forget her. Time to move on.

Time for bed.. :boring: :hi:

[saltpoint]

109. LOL! I don't like the use of donors' campaign contributions for that

purpose either, but if it wraps this thing up by close of business tomorrow, I'll look the other way while it happens.

Like you, I want a clear shot at McCain's Far right-wing kook voting record.

I'll pony up for more money. But we have to pick a nominee first, and I'm hoping Mrs. Clinton gets the religion soon.

Sleep tight.

[Divernan]

124. No, no. The Big Dog is into Cougars, not Pumas.

[scheming daemons]

23. Tropics Dude re-saw the light and re-joined the good guys.... when will you?

[ampad]

25. LOL

This thread is a trip!

[kwenu]

26. No. It's absolutely ridiculous at this point. Her PA gains are now erased.

He's gaining. She isn't. She can't win. Stop the insanity now!!!

[Scooter24]

28. Obama just wiped out all her Penn delegate gains tonight

and Obama will still net +1 delegate tonight. His popular vote lead is now over 700,000 votes.

YAHOO! BIG WIN FOR CLINTON! :woohoo:

Face it, the game is over.

[Catherine Vincent]

29. You're an awesome Hillary supporter!

Never give up!

[Colobo]

42. You know it's over.

[Catherine Vincent]

Oh hush!

I'm supporting this Clinton supporter.

[TexasObserver]

30. magic pony rides here!!

and don't forget to pet the unicorn!!

[TooRaLoo]

32. lmao.

[msallied]

33. Big Win?? Delusional much? My god... I hope you're not licensed to operate heavy machinery.

[The_Casual_Observer]

34. This thread is a no-pest strip

[BringBigDogBack]

35. LOL....

:rofl: :rofl:

Big that she managed to squeak out a win. Let's see how the delegates are allocated.

BTW, if IN (~20k) is a big win.... What would a bigger state be (with more delegates), (NC) and a 320,000 or so vote margin be considered by you?

A fuckstomping, perhaps?

[Bright Eyes]

37. Here's another thread to save for posterity.

[Diane R]

40. Oh. I get it. "Big" win in Indiana, as in 'double-digit' win in Pennsylvania.

[ButterflyBlood]

41. "Big" win?

Did you forget the sarcasm tag?

[rodeodance]

44. FORWARD FOLKS ~~~ WV, KY, AND OR...........

[NJSecularist]

52. Yup - WV, Kentucky and she may even win Oregon.

Then she can work on getting the Florida and Michigan delegates seated.

A big win for her - she can move on and fight to try and win the nomination. She split with Obama.

[XOKCowboy]

73. What are you drinking? No way she wins in Oregon

She'll lose Oregon like she did NC tonight. Besides, unless you and thousands like you start sending her $$$ she won't have any money to blitz those upcoming states.

Face it. America has seen what Hillary Clinton really represents and want a real change.

[NJSecularist]

88. Blacks don't consist of 33% of the electorate in Oregon like they did in North Carolina.

Hillary has a chance in the state.

[XOKCowboy]

105. So you think that only black people vote for Obama? How naive of you

I'll overlook the somewhat racist comment and point out that Oregon has a LOT of young, progressive people too. You know the kind that Obama has been turning out in record numbers.

[Forkboy]

113. Sounds like the Hillis44 poster being glad there's "no more black states".

[K Gardner]

133. Racist flamebait, here you go again. No, Oregon consists of WHITE EDUCATED people.. NOT her base.

You need to be tossed.

[saltpoint]

89. Senator Obama is going to win Oregon. Big.

[thewiseguy]

47. Its over.

[charlie]

48. The neocon trajectory in squintuple time

Bomb thrower for one side reinvents himself overnight as bomb thrower for the other side.

See: Horowitz, David.

And I was here to see it happen. Lucky me.

[cboy4]

49. I'm happy she won so we can continue this wonderful

political process.

I just love all of this, minus of course, the obnoxious taunting of the usual suspects.

[thewiseguy]

51. Its over. Why should she continue?

[NJSecularist]

54. What's over? Did Obama get 2025 delegates? n/t

[thewiseguy]

61. Is Hillary going to overcome Obama's pledge delegate lead?

[NJSecularist]

63. Doesn't matter.

Neither candidate will get 2025 pledged delegates, so the nomination is up for grabs.

[thewiseguy]

67. Yes and Obama is going to get the majority of SDs. As I said before. ITS OVER.

[jgraz]

75. .

[jgraz]

78. I bet you also keep calling ex-girlfriends until they take out restraining orders

[NJSecularist]

104. Are you mentally insane? Why would you bring up such a thing? Get help. n/t

[mitchum]

121. LMAO!!!

nicely done :)

[Catherine Vincent]

60. Let's count how many times Obamabots will post "It's over",

I think she should bow out but hey, if she wants to stay in, more power to her.

[k8conant]

55. West Virginia doesn't need you or her...we're fine with Obama

here on the Blue Ridge of West Virginia

[Petrushka]

99. (**ahem**) "...we're....the Blue Ridge of West Virginia" speaking for ALL

of West (by God!) Virginia's voters . . . since when?







:spank:

[Umbram]

57. How do I make official OP's? I want one! (nt)

[gmudem]

58. 2% is a big win?

Interesting math there. Any gains she made in PA have been wiped out by Obama's huge win in North Carolina. Indiana will probably be 37-35 for Clinton, maybe 36-36 if it gets that close.

Sorry but Clinton didn't gain a thing tonight, and I'm hoping she heard that death knell.

[BlooInBloo]

70. Less than that, actually.

[mkultra]

62. and after she loses WV?

on to the altered state of drugachussettes

[woolldog]

66. A difference of 20,000 votes out of 1.2 million cast is not a "big victory"

[jillan]

68. Thank g-d she won Indiana - I was ill over the thought of President McCain.

[Hoof Hearted]

72. I'm getting in conntact with one of her South Dakota offices..

I would say to them a prayer.


Tanyán yahí yélo.

[rocktivity]

74. For Hillary, a "big" win would have been with 69% of the vote

Now she'll have to get 86% of the vote in ALL SIX of the remaining contests to pass Obama in pledged delegates:

77-point or more margin of victory = blowout

72 - 76 points = a "real" win

40 - 71 points = good, but not good enough

11 – 39 points = a wash

5 - 10 points = useless

1 - 4 points = concession speech

:headbang:

Oh yeah ... MATH.

81. Maybe you shouldn't have been so fast to jump ship NJ...feeling a little

awkward I'm sure aren't you?

[nsd]

83. Is this some kind of joke?

We trying to find a way to bring the party together and you're still doing this stuff. Seriously? What is your deal?

[rocktivity]

85. All she has to do is now is get 86% of the vote in all six of the remaining contests

and she'll win it fair and square!

77-point or more margin of victory = blowout

I blame it on the Level 4.

:headbang:
rockantion

[gmudem]

102. You are obviously in need of a heavy dose of reality

Yeah Hillary would win Kentucky and W. Virginia if she stuck around, but she would lose by double digits in Oregon making it mathematically impossible for her to get to 2,025.

Also she has NO MONEY. Did you not notice her begging for it on national TV? For her campaign to continue it will sink further into debt, and nobody's going to want waste money on a candidate that clearly cannot win.

[rocktivity]

97. All she has to do is now is get 86% of the vote in all six of the remaining contests

and she'll win it fair and square!

[LVjinx]

98. Onward...

And I hope that Hillary will somehow magically get the nomination. But, realistically, she cannot.

But I still hope she gets as many delegates as she can between then and now! She has the opportunity to become a very powerful voice in the party, even if she doesn't win the nomination.

[NJSecularist]

100. Hillary is taking this to the convention.

You can take that to the bank.

[gmudem]

103. She doesn't have anything in the bank.

Hence, she is done.

[kwenu]

110. She can't affooooord it. She can't affooooord it. She can't affooooord it. Hillary, want a donation?

SIKE!!!!!!

[Leopolds Ghost]

120. OH, Ohhh, Down low? Too slow!

[rocktivity]

112. With no pledged delegate lead, no popular vote lead, no money,

a shrinking superdelegate lead, no MI/FL leverage, and half of Obama's wins, how does she "take it" to the end of the month?

:headbang:

122. The thread says FOR HILLARY supporters; yet all the nice obama supporters have to come in to piss.

[NJSecularist]

123. You're not surprised, are you? This site is their litter box.

[OzarkDem]

126. Sending a donation today!

[Jennicut]

129. Hey, its nearing time to change this board to the GE board, its over baby

Time to move on and support Obama against the Rethugs.

[phrigndumass]

130. Good luck!

I'm being sincere.

:hi:

[Phillycat]

131. Listen, it's over. I say that as a Hillary supporter.

She needed to win Indiana much more decisively, and she needed to be more competitive in NC. Be realistic. I would much rather have her as the candidate, but it's just not going to happen. It's over now. Let's concentrate on November - what else can we do?

[yourguide]

132. sad

[Straight Shooter]

134. Thank you for your optimism.

Seems like the better Barack's chances are, the nastier his supporters become, sort of an inverse relationship.

I'm in Oregon. May 20th will be my final vote. I was denied the opportunity to vote for Dean by Kerry's supporters who swore on the altar of God and all his angels that Kerry was electable. I want to vote for Hillary. Then I won't have anything to apologize for when the disaster arrives.

[bvar22]

135. Congrats to Hillary on her big win.

Hillary is still IN this race to WIN it, but she needs more money.
NOW is the time to give until it hurts.
Forget the high price of gas, the rising cost of HealthCare, the exploding price of food.
Dump the Savings account and the College Fund and donate the money to the Clinton campaign.

Don't listen to the experts!
Remember, the only math that counts is how much money you donate.
If you're short on cash, you can put it on your credit card and worry about paying it off later, so don't let that stop you from sending more money.

If you really support Hillary, send $MONEY$ TODAY!

[GihrenZabi]

136. Give it up

You just look foolish at this point.

Hillary is the walking dead. Done deal. Even with FL and MI seated as is she's losing by 100 pledged delegates and 150,000 in the popular vote.

It's over.
