Only Real Clinton Supporters will Heed Her Comments
At this point, I don't expect the Clinton people to run en masse to Obama...it will be a trickle coming bunch by bunch. But for the Clinton supporters who will never vote for Obama and will vote for McCain...they obviously don't really care for Clinton or the Party. Many are giving the excuse of Wrightgate, but I suspect there's more to it. My opinion is, we're just going to have to ignore them and let them go. We can't beg anybody to come back to the Party...because they obviously have some really personal issues with Obama the Man...not just the politician. Whether that be race, controversy, or whatever. I don't think a significant portion of her supporters represent this belief though. Most of Clinton's supporters in the audience were calm and clapped when she brought up Obama. Only a few voices could be heard dissenting and booing. I think in the end, many or most will come home to the Party. The rest will be irrelevant.

3. Vote for John McCain....
the guy who thought it was funny...actually funny... to sing "bomb, bomb, bomb bomb bomb Iran". Gee a real arm slapper for a Strangelovian!

the guy who visited Liberty University a few months ago. They weren't talking about making AMerica a more tolerant nation, you can be sure.

The guy who gets to nominate several Supreme Court Justices, who will in turn throw out Roe v Wade, and trample on what ever is left of our Constitution.

And who happens to be .... MALE!

I think the question is do they follow Hillary for the policies and ideals she fought for, or do they just want a herd leader/cult leader?

The cult following will vote for McCain or not vote at all out of disgust that their cult leader wasn't the nominee.

I think, however, that they represent a minority of the Hillary backers. Most...like Hillary....are good Democrats.

4. I think you have it dead on. This is what I have been thinking all along. There are other issues
involved with these people, and that just can't be helped.
