Deconstructing Hillary

I can’t believe there is a question about this! Why keep her off the roll call? This is a process and it needs to play out. It’s obvious that Obama is scared, but come on, we are supposed to be democrats. I think his days of pushing people out to run unopposed need to end.

As an Obama supporter, I understand her point and want a unified party coming out of Denver. As for “yelling, screaming and having their opportunity”, however, a lot of her supporters have been doing that since the primaries ended.

IF THE DEMOCRATS HAVE HALF A BRAIN LEFT, THEY WILL MAKE SURE HER NAME IS PUT INTO MONINATION. OBAMA CANNOT WIN IN NOVEMBER, AND THEY KNOW IT. IF THE DEMOCRATS WANT THE WHITE HOUSE, THEY WILL WISE UP. IF NOT, AND THEY ARE HAPPY WITH POWERHOG PELOSI, THEN MCCAIN WILL BE OUR NEXT PRESIDENT.

If I thought there was any possibility that Hillary could end up overturning Obama at the convention, I’d go. Problem is that even if all the supers did want to change to support her (and there were some who never committed to either), they won’t because of all the social problems that would stir up, even though she truly is the better, more qualified candidate and has been from the start.

Hillary may have received more votes, but Obama will not lose this because he will be behind in vote.
Do you not understand that the Independent/Socialist/Repubs. still need to cast their votes. As far as I can tell most are for Obama.
Stop spinning the lame more vote issue now, it does not hold for the general election.

It’s obvious that Obama is scared, but come on, we are supposed to be democrats. I think his days of pushing people out to run unopposed need to end.

Brilliant insight!

LOL…Beck. When will Obama and his supporters take responsibility for his actions? Why would it be Hillary’s fault that he lost? Has it ever occurred to you that Obama WILL lose because he is the worst Democratic candidate in recent history? For that simple reason?

“Problem is that even if all the supers did want to change to support her (and there were some who never committed to either), they won’t because of all the social problems that would stir up, even though she truly is the better, more qualified candidate and has been from the start.”
So you’re telling me he is such a weak candidate that the DNC has to fear a better candidate and must go with the loser because doing otherwise would make them look bad????
Is this the ‘We go down with the Titanic because we’re the right kind of people’ defense? When is losing on purpose a virtuous act?

“Obama has done nothing to try to unite the Democratic party so why would anyone believe that he will unite the country?”
Who cares about the party or the country, he is going to unite the world!

descentamerican, you are too descent to say things which are incorrect. Hill has not won more votes than Obama or more delegates than Obama. Very clearly for anybody who was following the elections the conclusion is clear that Obama has won the primaries in February 2008.

Obama has gotten a free ride throughout the campaign. Why have people not pointed out how ridiculous and corrupt every aspect of his campaign has been. That’s Chicago politics for you.

Can anyone EVER remember when a roll call vote was not done?????
I can’t. I remember how Ted Kennedy wanted to take it to the convention when he was down by over 700 pledged delegates against Carter.
ALL VOICES DESERVE TO BE HEARD. This should be a no brainer. She won and the nomination was stolen from her. Of course she deserves a roll call vote. She won the popular vote.

I never though I would be saying this but McCain is right on with the “Celebrity” ad. How could someone who was in the senate for 1 year, voted “present” on over 100 votes, got reprimanded for not showing up for votes and changed positions repeatedly in the short time he has been in the spotlight, be this close to running this nation?

Two losses will be more painful and shameful than one respectable loss. It goes to show that some people don’t have shame. HRC and are supporters are typical examples.

President Barack has spoken. Hillary will work with him to deliver results in his administration.

I’m for Obama. If they did a roll call in 1980 with Kennedy then they can do it now. (Of course, Carter lost in 1980.) As long as the goal is to show the Democrats can come together in true support of Obama then why not.
If Hillary is the loyal opposition, then do it right.

Two losses will be more painful and shameful than one loss. If HRC makes the mistake of putting her name on the ballot in Denver, then she will lose again. Barack will obviously hand her a second defeat. So be careful.
Inflammatory statements and boastful acclamations (e.g. having 18million votes etc) by HRC supporters will make retiring her debt impossible. Do not expect any assistance from BHO and we the supporters.

The creepy Clintons and their even creepier octogenarian camp followers do not realize how dispised that have become. America is sick of this “cute” act they play with everything from parsing what is a good candidate to how one counts delegates. My hope is that we get more of Lanny Davis and the rest of those sycophants going on about the Clintons. That will push the rest of us over the cliff.

Obama is in a dead heat with McCain. Why?

Simple. Hillary has not put to rest the theroy that “something” may happen at the Convention. There are alot of people holding out, just in case Hillary tries “something”

Obama will never agree to having Hillary’s name put in nomination. He prefers to have everyone think he won the primary by a big majority, which obviously wasn’t true. Without Oprah’s name and money, the Kennedy’s private and then public backing, and big donors (which he doesn’t want to admit to) he never would have won Iowa. People also tend to forget he only one 30 some percent of that caucus anyway, between Edwards and Clinton, nearly 60% of the voters voted against him. His arrogance continues to totally irritate me and a many more of his “constituents” here in Illinois.

Before an Obama supporter points it out, yes, I know, I misspelled “won.”

Beck, when we loose in November, hold yourself responsible for voting to nominate and empty suit, that cannot even beat John McCain, how about you all start taking responsibility for your actions, as democrats or americans in general we should have been voting to nominate the invidual that we know would be most effective and that would be able to beat the opposition, but you all decided to vote on hope and change, now take responsibility for that vote and stop voting the Clintons they are two people with two votes. You all are quick to blame Clinton and her supporters but you take no responsibility for voting for someone that you did not properly vet and research, now he is slipping in the polls like we knew he would and you want someone to blame. Look in the Mirror and stop the foolishness.

Just let us march around Denver yelling and screaming and vetting our frustration over this election. Mind you its got nothing to do with Obama. We would never imply he’s an imposter.We would never imply that we were cheated out of the nomination.After we all feel better we’ll all hold hands and sing songs.Wait….one more thing…about the Inaguation…..kidding

Calls for her not to be on the ballot are just more blatent mysogyny from the DNC.

Hillary first, McCain second, Obama NEVER.
I am already sick of seeing Obama’s face all over the television. With all of his OVERexposure,I feel like he has been president for 4 years already, and I want a CHANGE. He has never captured my imagination with his cultish persona. He is all fluff in my book, and that’s why this Democrat will regrettably be voting Republican in the general election for the first time in my life. This was supposed to be the year of the Democrats, but now that will have to wait until 2012.

I don’t care what anyone thinks about Clinton or Obama. The fact remains that NEITHER on has the pledged delegates to secure the nomination. Democratic Convention rules allow for a name to be placed into nomination with the presentation of a petition of a minimum of 300 delegate signatures. It has been done this way, BY THE RULES, for 100 years.
The very fact the Obama and his supporters thinks it is just fine and ok to control the convention to favor Obama, is facisim at it’s best. Arrogance incarnate at it’s worst.
What don’t you people understand about the “democratic” in DEMOCRATIC Party? The whole country is watching THIS time. Not so easy to game the system so your guy comes out ahead. LOL

obama CHOSE NOT to be on the slate in Michigan and, as for Florida, he was the ONLY candidate who actually DID campaign !
Yet Obama was GIVEN some of delegates which should have gone to Hillary from Michigan
And Obama was totally against the representatives of these states being seated…..
Of course, after he assumed the title of presumptuous nominee, he realized he couldn’t win if all the delegates weren’t seated so, this last week or so, this is what he’s been pushing for.
NOW THAT HE HAS BEEN FORCE-FED AND SELECTED BY THE BROKEN DNC… IN CAHOOTS WITH A NEW KIND OF POWER HUNGRY MEDIA….. OBAMA FEELS IT IS SAFE FOR THE DELEGATES TO BE SEATED!
Is this the kind of change Obama is alluding to>
Because if it is, I want no part of it.
Read quickly; this should disappear with the next fell breeze………arghhhhhhhhhhhhh

Hillary would have won the presidency by a landslide. Obama lied to the far left to hijack their vote then flip flopped as soon as he became the nominee. Noone believes him anymore, they are just going through the motions and regretting it every second.
If the primary were held again Obama would lose by a landslide. Hillary just needs to go through the motions and turn down the VP spot. She can win in 2012.

Time to hoist the Jolly Roger.

Look Clinton supporters are only helping McCain. The nomination process is 50 states with various rules and procedures. It’s not pretty, but it’s as fair as can be expected. Don’t blame Obama for that. He didn’t cheat. In fact, I think he understood the realities better than Clinton. For example, he understood the rules in Texas better. He lost the State, but won more delegates based on shrewder use of resources in districts that counted more. If Hillary’s supporters are so fired up, why don’t they use the convention to present a cohesive, better nomination process for the next go-round instead of distracting everyone with this lame argument to be heard. I want to be heard to! Yelling at the top of my lungs when Obama wins.

I hope Hillary is nominated at the convention and wins BIG. Obama has failed to carry through on his promises to her, just as he is lying to the American people. I just hope and pray that he is found out before it’s too late. I am a Democrat who will NEVER vote for the fraud Obama!

Hillary’s run was more historic than Obama’s we have seen many men win primary’s one after the other. Hillary was the first woman to win more than one state and her 18 million votes is a big deal if people continue to treat it like it means nothing and if MSM keeps lying then we can assume our elections are fixed and this country is in big trouble. remember the 55 delagates just given to Obama

Hillary s/b dumped with her supporters. The Clinton machine is out to mess up everyone except themselves.
More votes than Obama? No wonder she lost. It’s the delegate count ladies.
If you don’t like it, why don’t you change it. Otherwise, you all are just ranting for nothing.
Just think if Hillary won, Bill would already reclaim his space.

Senator Obama is not a middle of the road democrat but a far, far left socialist. Fools selected him as the nominee.

Being a woman, I have to say I’m pretty embarrassed by these comments. So you are going to choose McCain, a man who allies himself with an oil tycoon who said “if a woman’s being raped, she might as well try to enjoy it”, a man who wants to make abortion illegal, a man who really doesn’t care about what women want (he even voted against equal pay), just to spite Obama?
Does that make sense to anyone? cuz it’s not making sense to me. If that is the real RATIONAL reasoning that comes to you all, then I must say that I can no longer fight against American sexism, we women are just idiots.
Hillary is selfish, even if she was held down and made to lose (which she wasn’t), she should be the bigger person and walk away with head held high. Now she’s asking for controversy. Pathetic….

Cultists are usually irrationally devoted to a set of myths that they’ve accepted and perpetuate as facts. They resist any suggestion that their “facts” may not be “facts” and, when challenged, often resort to name calling, innuendo, personal attacks, or questioning their challenger’s motivation.
It’s ironic that Senator Obama’s supporters are accused of being cultists. What we seem to have is a Clinton Cult so intent on perpetuating its mythology and poking sticks in its “wounds” that it threatens to support someone who is the total antithesis of everything that Senator Clinton is and believes in.
1) If you’re going to blame the DNC for some sort of conspiracy, you need to remember that it has been the Clinton’s DNC for the past sixteen years. It was the Clinton’s DNC that penalized Michigan and Florida. Senator Clinton had a majority on the Rules and By-Laws Committee which settled the mess that they’d made by shutting out Michigan and Florida to begin with.
2) The Democratic Party does not allow a candidate to determine what counts and doesn’t count. Senator Clinton did not win the “popular vote.” Even if she had, it wouldn’t have mattered. The nomination is determined by the delegate count.
3) I have repeatedly seen suggestions that Senator Obama ran a “sexist” campaign. I have yet to hear a single example of Senator Obama’s alleged “sexism” toward Senator Clinton.
4) Senator Clinton ran a bad campaign and lost. She played the George W. Bush inevitability game and assumed that the DNC script that had been set up for her would give her the nomination on Super Tuesday. It didn’t happen. She didn’t have a Plan B until she developed the “kitchen sink” strategy in Ohio and Texas. That did nothing but generate ill will on both sides…a lot of which still lingers in Senator Obama’s supporters.
Please come up for some air…consider what’s at stake this time. Haven’t the last eight years demonstrated the dangers of irrationality and myths rather than dealing with reality and practical consequences?
John McCain will not further any of the ambitious policy goals that Senator Clinton articulated during her campaign. Senator Obama will.
If you are, in fact, offended by sexism, I don’t know how can consider supporting someone who calls his wife the “c” word and parades her in front of a bunch of bikers while talking about entering her in a topless beauty contest. The mind faileth.

A Roll Call vote could backfire on Senator Clinton. Most of her ardent political supporters jumped ship to Senator Obama. Her roll call votes can fall short, thus embarrassing herself and her supporters.

I wouldn’t put too much stock into the Rasmussen Poll. That poll tends to trend republican. Many of its writers on rasmussen are conservative.

The voice of the voters -who Voted for Clinton should be heard.

Why? Why should those voters be heard? What’s so special about them? If Hillary really wanted to be a hero, she would REALLY make a conscious effort to help Obama (a TEAM MATE, not an opponent) win.

Hear in lies the problem, people tell Hillary to play by the rules but let Obama slide by on anything. Let their be a freaking roll call like most other conventions. Hillary has dealt with the loss she hasnt dealt with the lack of respect. Obama reaching how,,, by sparing 5 seconds after a long speech saying oh yeah if you think about give Hillary some money. This whole thing is so stupid. If it was so wrong and barack had lawyers fighting seating of Michigan and Florida during the primaries why is it a okay now? He should have listened back then and he could have avoided many in those states from beign upset. I mean it wouldnot have changed the out come of the primaries right????? at least thats what the obama camp and his supporters were saying. Now barack my forgo a normal procedure during the convention, for what? it wont change the outcome that he will be nominated right??????? People keep pushing the blame on the clintons, but you see you fail to realize that no matter how you try to spin it there are people that wanted Hillary to win and sorry no they are not all pumas or repbulicans in disguise like you want to beleive. Her delegates have a right to be heard. This a big chance to think of the Covention as a family meeting gather air out your differences and leave them there, but no they want to go the route of submit or shut up and get out.

As a journalist I am sure you know that it is legal to skip an occasional “you know” or “I mean” when writing down spoken words (unless of course you want the interviewee to appear dumb).

Take it to the convention Hillary. Obama doesn’t “think” that Clinton supporters will disrupt the convention -but b-e-l-i-e-v-e me he’s in more trouble than he could EVER imagine.

This is ridiculous. If it was about an issue, I’d understand. I would have supported Kucinich at the last convention keeping his delegates to push for a real end to the Iraq occupation, but he chickened out. Clinton has no policy differences that would necessitate keeping delegates and fighting out the platform. Therefore, its over.

Obama had better hope that Hillary Clinton rides in to saves the day (and the Party) at the convention because if he gets the nomination,
he will go on to lose the election, and his political fortunes along with it.
He is in way over his head.

Yes I am a Clinton supporter and yes I will vote for McCain.
Go McCain!
Hillary 2012!

Any body read newsmax. Obama doesnt keep his promises. Before all the obama supporters get up in arms Us hillary supporters know its not Obama’s debit but its common practice for the presumtive nomoniee to take on the debit of the other nomoniees, but even that doesn’t mean he has to help, but his promise to help her does mean he should feel obligated.
When Obama and Hillary “kissed” and made up during their unity rally in June, both made a private pledge to each other to help raise $500,000 from their donors for the other’s campaign.

Though deep in debt, Hillary quickly fulfilled her promise. But cash-rich Obama has yet to cough up the dough from his backers.
“Hillary has done her part in that regard,” a Hillary adviser told Time. “Obama has not.”
Then there was the warm and fuzzy call between Bill Clinton and Obama. Obama told Clinton he wanted to sit down with the popular former president, the most successful Democratic president since FDR. But Clinton aides say Obama has never folowed up on the verbal invitation.
Proving that hillary at least tries to keep her word, she helped barack get the money she promised he did basically nothing for her in return, but at last she is paying off her debit without his help she just paid off all schools she owed over a 140,000 dollars.

JayBoz…Hillary is leaving her name on the ballod to help Obama. He will be declared the nominee and the imense cloud of doom will lift. She knows we need a Dem in the white house. She is a politician and so is Obama. There is no such thing as “Old Politics”. It was a phrase put out there by the media. And “change” was a campaign stratagy. Either Dem canadate would be a welcome change in the white house. Hating on someone in your own party is something new. Is that the change we need?

Obama doesn’t need Hillary supporters for the general election.
He has some brilliant strategies like enrolling Republicans to become ‘Democrat for a Day’ and vote for him, bring busloads of supporters to the caucuses, Republicans will vote for his historic candidacy, and such. You see, Obama is a new kind of politician!

John:
“This supposed new great knight isn’t really that great which is why the race was so close.”
Had Obama’s “Wright baggage” been known before the first 11 primaries, Clinton would have won. It was nip and tuck in the voting after March 13, when Obama’s association with Wright hit the news.
In fact, Clinton won 8 of the last 13 primaries. The Obama “won” because he had not been vetted, and that’s a shame

Hillary is the best qualified to serve as Commander In Chief when comparing her to Obama and McCain. With reluctance I will vote for Obama but my preference is Senator Hillary Clinton. I would never vote for John McCain because it will be more of the same policies and our govt. will continue to be under the rule of a lame duck President.

The Obamabots don’t want a Convention, they want an innauguration. Obama ascends the mile-high Mount, delivers his Sermon, and everyone chants “yes we can”. Next Obama will bless the loaves and fishes to distribute to the crowd.
There aill be photo-ops and sound bites galore. Why let a little thing like “Democracy” interfere with a perfectly staged event.

Obama’s camp reminds me so much of ‘W’ – mirror images of eachother really.

Is Bill going to be announcing Hillary as the next VP? I wonder. David Gergen has been pushing for that – saying that Obama needs some fighter to go against the Rep attack machine.

Hillary wants to look like a good loser. Just because she received more votes than Barak she knows she really isn’t worthy to be on the same stage as him. She really should resign from the Senate and start baking cookies. She is as irrelavant as her husband is.

Since neither candidate has enough pledged delegates to secure the nomination, how can the Democrats possibly justify not putting Hillary’s name up for a vote?
If the candidates were two white men, would there be any question or resistance?
If the candidates were two black men, would there be any question or resistance?
If the candidates were two women, would there be any question or resistance?
What is it about Obama and Hillary that causes the democrats to try to block a vote?

Hillary scares me too, glad she’s not the nominee.

If the “Democratic Party” will not “allow” a vote on the floor, then I feel we are seeing the slow and steady death of one of our most prized constitutional rights “the right to vote”. I am sure some will say that I am being to dramatic but I do not like the direction this party is heading towards. I do not like how Speaker Pelosi runs “our” House or the
Party, no descent, no disscusion, no votes. I can only hope that there still some citizens of this party who are more interested in our liberties and rights than creating a mirage of unity for the TV cameras.

Destini, isn’t that exactly what Hillary was trying to do with Mi and Fl delegates, change the rules???? I guess you could say how dare Hillary, right.

Unfortunately and sadly all of hype regarding a vote at the Democratic Convention for a count of Hilary Clinton delegates has been strategically planned from the beginning. Hilary Clinton declared this option was going to be kept open. Fact is Hilary Clinton herself dropped out of the race, and she publicly endorsed Barack Obama. Clinton plans for this convention vote were/have always been their political strategy. She is portraying herself as the victim and appears to be the good sport. Facts support appearances by both of the Clintons reveal and appear they are very polarizing individuals using devious methods for their own benefit. History reveals when these two are involved in something enormous controversy and confusion present. I am very disappointed about the recent implied suggestive words used by Hilary Clinton to get supporters going again. This is good example of political campaign strategy gathering support slowly but surely. Both have been very quiet until reently. Now News Media hype stories have jumped to further nurture it’s growth. President Clinton has now come out to reveal he just can not say he endorses Barack Obama and can not say he feels he is qualified. He further reveals he is upset about how he feels he and his wife were treated during the campaign. Yes, Hilary did experience gender bias, but is negated by fact Barack Obama experienced racial bias. Hilary Clinton herself is playing both sides saying all is well and stating she supports Barack Obama. It does appear she is trying to portray and gain support for herself as the good upstanding victimized Democratic candidate. This is another example of a “populist” political campaign strategy. This is very disappointing to see happen and to be tolerated by so many people.
I truthfully have some difficulty understanding why all of this has to occur. Facts just do not support many of the Clinton stances.
My long records with facts from articles on each candidate reveal Hilary Clinton was:
(1)Hilary Clinton was the more attack candidate secretly giving out and indiscretely inflicting smear tactics on Obama – examples are long and verified – Clinton’s were indeed more personal smear attacks. Records about Barack Obama attacks on Hilary were much lower and were not personal strong smear attacks. Clinton has many bad, bad baggage that could have been used against her, but Barack Obama did not use. Facts seem to support this is not the type of campaign Barack Obama conducts. Facts reveal Clinton used in various public advertised and underground venues not publicized.
(2)Hilary Clinton took “populist” stances that were not factual fairness nor solutions, only wanting to gain votes for herself. Everyone needs to look up the true meaning and reasons for using “populist” stances. These political strategies play on emotional issues/concerns of the voters. Voters gain nothing by these stances as any beneficial outcomes of the stances will never be realized. Discouraging to see these types of stances taken when we have so many financial disasters affecting us today
(3)Unfair conduct pursuing votes and voters support(another “populist stance”) for Michigan and Florida DNC declared non-sanctioned primaries – requesting votes stand from primaries when Michigan court made decision primaries were not legal primaries as state law moving date up is not legal – Hilary Clinton Campaign representatives were non – negotiating and took hostile stances – revealed and displayed during televised DNC Committee Meeting where final decision was voted upon regarding Michigan and Florida primary status and results and allocation of their delegates- facts reveal Barack Obama representatives displayed good stances and were trying to be fair and “give a little” as good will gestures – this was not shown on TV, but was during time when committee was out negotiating away from cameras- expert witnesses publicly testified Barack Obama had majority of vote for more delegates to go to his side but they suggested and supported giving Hilary more. This whole situation was most definitely not something any good parent would want to teach their children as an example of how to live life with good values abiding by present laws and rules for total fairness for all involved.
(4)Unfair to blame Barack Obama for not attempting to do more to pay off her campaign debt. Obama has been so polite and supportive. Would not let his supporters ridicule her- end of problem. He has asked his supporters to give to her campaign. Some have, but reality exists. Money is short for many people today. Difficult for them to give to both campaigns and support their families. FACT -Hilary Clinton raised great outstanding record breaking totals of campaign donations for her primary campaign too. Facts reveal Clinton campaign had intense personal controversies going on between staff, more confusion and blowups, revealed poor campaign management to keep campaign financially sound and in black, lack of control and questionable selection of campaign staff. Hilary Clinton should have been quite capable of clearing her debt if she truly had a great voter support existing even after the close of the Democratic primaries. Her monthly records of campaign donations indicated her debt would be whipped out easily if she really still had supporters as she now claims she has. I saw she campaigned strong even at the end not curtailing expenses even though her campaign was deeply in debt. So who is to blame for piling campaign debt up further? Barack Obama had nothing to do with any of Hilary Clinton Campaign finances or management of the money spent. Hilary Clinton did though. The Clinton’s continued to pile up this debt themselves. Barack Obama had actually backed off heavy campaigning at the end saving money. Now Barack Obama is being blamed for this debt??? Unbiased common sense supports fact Hilary Clinton Campaign present debt is in all ways is reflective of Hilary Clinton’s ineffective campaign oversight and financial management, and continued strong campaigning without regard to financial stability of her campaign.
These are only a few example of my long records I have accumulated and do not includes all the facts or reason I would /could include. This response would be qay too long.
I attempted to evaluate both candidate fairly from the beginning and throughout. I am actually Republican, but was not satisfied with present administration and Republicans. I was willing to evaluate all candidates o both parties. I originally started out favoring/supporting Hilary Clinton. But Hilary herself pushed me away. The records I kept do speak what is true and what isn’t. Words are cheap. Barack Obama came out way ahead as a more honest and less vicious.
I find the all of the currents actions by Hilary Clinton Campaign and President Clinton planned all along. Their public appearances are very disturbing. Seem to reveal they want and feel they deserve and are entitled to alot of things. All is so very secretive??? Guess we will all see and evaluate facts as this story unfolds. I am quite disturbed and skeptical about their true motives. These two are well known for their polarizing political moves. All to be continued—

People get over it almost every other convention has a roll call? why not this one? Oh cause it’s Hillary? Where is edwards? were is dodd, where is kunich? why is hilllary alone responsible for supporting barack? And I would think the DNC would want the last democratic president to speak at the convention.

PARTY?????

Well, well, well, Bill Clinton has been tapped to give the opening speech at the convention prior to Obama announcing his running mate for the campaign. This can mean only thing! Either Hillary is being tapped as the vice-president or being given a large roll in Obama’s administration otherwise Bill Clinton would have told them to go fly a kite! So, little Obama couldn’t get the polls to go high enough in his favor and now he has to go to a girl, the gender that he bashed during his campaign in the primary, to help him get elected! lolololol! I am loving it! And, I actually still hope he loses to McCain, little pompous nit!

Bill will not be announcing Hillary as VP. Evan Byah is not on the schedule to speak and that could be telling.

Let the roll call happen. Just as it has in years past. This is the democratic process. Frankly the DNC is loosing this race.
If Hillary looses, she looses. If Obama looses he looses.
This is politics people.
Personally, if Obama wins, I will not vote for him. He is not the experience we need.
I am a Life time Democrat who is ready to change parties!

I have been a Democrat since I started to vote at 18. I have never voted for a Republican in my life but, I guess there is a first time for everything. Obama is an inexperienced, half of a first term senator, who, instead of serving his term and trying to LEARN something, let his ego get the best of him. He has spent almost his whole time in the senate running for President. As shown in the debates, he knows little if anything on the important issues, he would wait for Hillary to answer and either agree with her or say the same thing just changing the words around a little. Had voters in the first primaries known about Wright, Rezko, Ayers, and all of his other crooked friends, I doubt he would be this far anyway. I bet there is more “buyer’s remorse” out there than anyone realizes. Hillary Clinton knows the issues inside and out, and made him look like an uninformed idiot in the debates. How anyone can vote for this ego maniac is beyond me. He was given stolen votes by the “rules committee” for a state that he took his name off of the ballot. Why should he get votes that were rightfully hers? Not to mention that the “super delegate” system is a farce! If you look at how many of the super delegates got money from Obama’s and Pelosi’s pacs and how many voted against their own constituency after that donation it shows you how many elected officials can be bought and paid for. Obama is crooked and he just knows how to work a crooked system. I will be voting John McCain in November.
