Hillary Is Hemorrhaging
and has stuck a band-aid on the gaping wound. All that money has leaked all over the place.

Please Senator Clinton it is time to stop before you bleed out.

1. I guess she feels she has gone this far, and as long as the magic
number has not been achieved by either side, the rules provide for continuation... Rules and all, ya know?

20. Not true. Please name one instance when Obama didn't play by the rules to which he'd agreed. n/t

21. Obama is a good candidate, but he is a politician and therefore
all of his actions and words are scripted by advisors, like it or not...


The rules provide that one Candidate reach 2025, and they are trying to get Clinton to quit.. That is not playing by the rules...

I don't support either candidate, but I at least recognize the fact both are politicians.

23. I understand you believe all politicians are the same. Support that opinion...
...by a couple pieces of evidence regarding Obama.

25. Name one instance where HC didn't.
That suggestion cannot go unchallenged. I've seen accusations, innuendo and out-right lies concerning her from people like you, but ultimately no real evidence of any wrong-doing.

4. She's loaning
herself money.

That has sort of a strange sound to it. I wish I could loan me money.

6. It's allowed so I don't blame her for it, but...
...it really damages the whole idea of preventing candidates from buying an office.

8. It is a back door
method of funding.

Asking blue collar working people to send in money to help her floundering campaign did not help her. I am sure they would like it to be just a "loan."

26. Justify the term "lunacy."
Anyway, most of her supporters are either rich and have donated the maximum already or else are too poor to donate. Most of HC's supporters can't afford a $4 cup of coffee to say nothing of an imported car or college tuition. Frankly, they support her because they cannot take a chance on an untested new-comer with nothing to offer but a lot of hot air and empty promises.

5. Vicious in battle and completely without grace in victory.
Sorry to put it this way, but I really don't want thousands of people like you being anywhere near a postition of power. Would that be worse that more war and more debt? I really don't know at this point.

12. You don't like democracy?
The "power" in a democracy is supposed to reside in the people, not in the politicians.

13. Just remember you said that when November comes around.
I probably will end up voting for your guy with a clothespin in my nose, but many won't.

Anyway, for an Obama person to be squawking about democracy is pretty disingenuous. I don't have twenty minutes to explain why yet again.

14. I'm not an Obama person.
And, I'm undecided whether I'll use the clothespin, as usual, in November.

15. It's
the lapel pin... Come on, admit it.

Or is it that he demanded to take the oath of office on the Quoran?

You don't believe that Senator Obama believes in democracy?

27. I don't really care what he or anyone else "believes in."
I don't care what they say, either. I can never understand the attraction of these rallies and public speeches by any candidate for any office when all the listener will get is the self-serving words of those candidates. I look at actions. As I have explained at length, the attacks on HC's commitment to democracy and other things by unoffical surrogates are groundless and are in and of themselves an effort to manipulate the result. In my mind, dishonesty = undemocratic. Besides, the result will never be fair or democratic as long as two states are excluded.

22. It's slightly more comfortable if you put the clothespin on the outside of your nose.
Todays handy tip.

Good luck, whatever your personal choice.

3. In the end the money was the controlling factor.
Pretty ironic for a candidate running on change.

9. True enough.
I'm a little disappointed you didn't see my pun. "Change?" As in loose change, small change, change for a dollar.
