I THINK PEOPLE NEED TO CALM DOWN,PUT THEIR EMOTIONS ASIDE,AND THINK LOGICALLY ABOUT THE PAST 8 YEARS.THINK FOR A LONG TIME.NOT SO QUICKLY,WHY WE ARE IN THIS ECONOMIC TURMOIL,WHY PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE JOBS,WHY THE WHOLE MIDDLE EAST HATE US,WHY WE ARE IN THIS TERRORIST STATE,WHY.IF THIS ADMINSTRATION WAS GOOD,WE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN IN THIS SITUATION.EVERY POLICY FROM DOMESTIC TO FOREIGN HA BEEN A FAILURE.SO THINK ; WE MUST CHANGE THE COURSE OF THIS COUNTRY WE HAVE NO CHOICE AND OBAMA SEEMS TO BE ABLE TO DELIVER THAT MORE THAN THE OTHER TWO CANDIDATE PLEASE THINK AND VOTE WITH YOUR HEAD
FAY FROM VA

What bothers me is that all of us encouraged Hillary to run, I agree she should step down now because we need to concentrate on Mc Cain. But I hate the fact we since Obama is in the race we have ditched her. Before Obama entered the race even Oprah was with Hillary.

I want Hillary to contine to talk out their as well as Bill. The more they talk the worse they look. If she keeps going to the end, she will kill any chance of running again in 4 years. Just think of all the replays of her and Bill yelling about how unfair this has been to them! Keep going Hillary....I'm lovin every minute of this!!!

P.S.

If you wanted Michigan's votes to count, why did you say no today to the deal offered up? In our fake primary you won 73 delegates and we offered you 69 of them today. Apparently we don't matter as much to you after all.

Even though I'm sure this message will be under moderation as all my others are, I'll try to write another one.

I'm definitely for Obama, but it makes me sick that people for either candidate are so hateful and childish calling the candidates awful names. Please be mature and think before you speak. This just makes you look like a fool–which I'm sure you're not, just frustrated.

At this point Hillary should bow out gracefully and start helping Obama get this nomination and I would be saying this to him too if he were the one losing.

Please, please, please quit acting so immature–and I'm saying this to anyone being so tacky about either candidate.

It's time for her to leave. The republican should not use her to gain cheap points on Obama.

I’d hate to think of the most horrible outcome of all of this, but here we go. Since Hillary will not accept defeat, I am fearful that she’ll run as an independent to prove a point in the General Election. Thus far she’s shown she has no best interest of the DEM party leave alone the Country.

Hillary I beg you to prove me wrong!

Billary...you should just go and spend some time in front of the kitchen sink...so rewarding to do mindless tasks...just like you are doing now. Get a brain, woman! You are wasting time and money you don't have!

Primaries do not include independents. In November independents sick of pandering (gas tax etc.) will vote her out. Moreover, religious Christian White Women (many of them ELDERLY) will vote AGAINST her in 10s of millions. So much for women support.

SO much hate on both sides. What should have been a shoe in for the Democrats (and a few of us Republicans) has been destroyed by a bitter emotional battle. The last thing I'd like to note is the only way Obama won't win in the fall is if a good percentage of the Clinton supporters take their ball and go home because they didn't get their way. If the nominee should be selected on someone's perceived idea of electability then why even have us commoners vote? Oh that's right because we live in a democracy!

Give Obama no degates from Michigan, He chose to remove his own name..........His fault............Seat the delegates from Florida and Michigan as is..................................

WE GOT YOUR BACK HILLARY

KEEP FIGHTING

The fat cats of the Democratic party hijacked this election from the voters. Granted some believe in those inspiring speaches but the majority is following the media coverage and the pundits.
The long drawn process shows how corrupt the party insiders are and how they believe that no matter what, we will forget come November, will unite and heal.............NO WAY NO HOW........as soon as this charade is over and the boys are done pouncing on Hillary I am changing my registration to INDEPENDENT. That party does not deserve my vote. I hope all true Hillary Clinton backers do the same.
Let the Obama adorers carry this election and I am going to sit back and see this fiasco unravel.............Change?? with who on his side? The insider politicos who have been divorced from reality years ago?? Good luck!!!!!!!!

A Clinton Supporter,, Take it to the convention...........Get every delegate seated.................................

It is very hard not feel so angry towards Hillary. She has been on the ATTACK from the beginning. She gave plenty of "motivational" and "emotional" speeches, but none truly addressed any issues. She has been caught in so many lies, who can believe her?

Why did she feel the need to attack with such venom? I understand that negatives will emerge throughout campaigning but will when it end is the question.

In my opinion, she shows signs of bi-polar characteristics-- she cried in the beginning, she was happy in the middle and appears out of control and angry in the end. This is what we need leading us, unh?There was negative thrown at Barack hand over fist but he held his ground and continued to press on. That is who we need to lead this nation -- someone who will stand in the face of adversity all the way to the end.

As has been the case from the beginning, the media pundits have pushed Sen. Obama as the Democratic front-runner, even when he was obviously not performing well.

No one has a crystal ball; therefore, no one can predict the outcome of this contest. How does anyone know what might happen between now and mid-June?

Sen. Clinton has made some remarkably poignant observations during the course of this campaign, and she has done a superb job in presenting her plans and ideas to the American people.

She has proven to be a true fighter whose persistence is admirable. I wouldn't be so quick to count her out.

Skewed Democratic Nomination Process
This year’s Democrat nomination is the most skewed process in terms of races, genders, and ages. The most striking skewers is the race. Take the NC primary as an example. 93% African Americans (AFA) voted for Obama in the NC primary, while only 39% of the rest voted for him. Yet, he had a big win (14%) over Hillary Clinton. Do you know that Hillary would need 30% AFA votes or 73% of non-black votes just to tie Obama? This over 90% AFA support of Obama has been prevailing key for Obama’s lead in the primary contest. The only chance that Hillary can still win is that the remaining voters and super delegates understand the above numbers, and make a wise choice for the more qualified candidate

really need to get out now clinton, stop dividing the party. and if she thinks of running in '12, people will look back at now and they still wont vote for her

Yeah, June 15th......what year?

To the guy worried about Roe vs Wade being overturned:

I bet your pretty glad your mom wasn't pro-choice.

The drumbeat calling for Hillary to withdraw may be reaching a fever-pitch, but it doesn't actually change anything.

Despite what all the Obama supporters want, Hillary CAN still win this, and in my opinion - and the opinions of millions of other Americans - she should.

How can she win?

Simple. She can hold her own in the upcoming contests and then demonstrate to the Superdelegates that she has the best chance of beating McCain in November. And isn't that what we all really want? A Democrat in the White House?

How can she convince them of this?

It shouldn't be as tough as the SD's are making it. She may very well wind up winning the popular vote. She has won handily in states that we NEED to win in November - specifically Ohio, Florida, and Pennsylvania. We need a victory in 2 of those 3 states to win, and she is much better positioned to do so than Obama. And finally, according to the polls, the liklihood of Obama's supporters moving over to her if she is the nominee is much greater than the other direction. I personally think it is self-destructive of someone to say they won't support the Democratic nominee regardless, but apparently it is so, and the SD's would be foolish to ingore the facts.

And remember - it doesn't matter what an SD ~says~ they are going to do - they can change their mind right up to the last minute.

Why should she win?

Because she would win, and he would lose.

Don't get me wrong, I like Obama. But I am TIRED OF LOSING! The Republicans will make hay of his inexperience, will play the race/bigotry/Islam/hate/fear cards like we've never seen before, and if they can't find some dirt on him they will make it up, and MCCAIN WILL WIN. Say whatever mean things you wish about Clintons, but the liklihood of there being any skeletons in their closet that we haven't already drug out is exceedingly slim.

So, let me be the first on this board (I think) to call on Senator Obama to do what is right for America, and DROP OUT! Personally I think he would make a fine VP, and I am confident Senator Clinton would be open to extending that offer.

Huffington post and Fox are same for me I never believe both
Both are Unfair and Unbalance
Only CNN is fair and Balance

The question is, how much damage to the Democratic Party would Sen. Clinton have done?

If she is leaving on June 15, then why is she sending out all these damaging messages (debate in Oregon, she should be on top of the ticket, Sen. Obama work with me to get Florida and Michigan votes to count, working Whites prefer me).

Something is definitely wrong in that camp.

What possible reason would she have to stay in the race until June?
I'll give you 11.4 million.

Under current ethics laws, she can only recoup that lost money if her campaign can raise it before the Convention. Otherwise, her loan becomes a contribution, and is 'lost' forever.

No one wants to donate money to a losing candidate, so she needs to keep fighting and stay alive, not for the American people or voters in FL and MI, but for her own bank account.

As the song goes: "Sad but true."

If she doesn't get the nomination, she better leave the Democratic party because this party is crazy if they don't pick her. Next step is running as an Independent and she will win the general election because real democrats will follow her. Obama already damage our party getting in the middle when he knows that Hillary was going to run, and of course he get the help from the republicans(only in the primeries) and the help of inmature people that think this is an election for a student council president, not the U.S.A President. Its very sad, put in the end Hillary will be the President, count on it.
Hillary for President 2009!!!.
She have the support of millions, do not forget that.

It's not about voting for Mccain because Hillary lost it about the fact that he has more expierence and the last time america voted in a president without expierence we got what we have now. Knowing how washington works in the only way things will get done, not by hoping things will get done just because I say so.

Hillary Clinton did not drive a wedge in the Democratic party. The leadership of this party is driving the wedge. They just do not get it. We should have this election in the bag given the last eight years of Bush. But...that is not going to happen. I still see a loss for Obama in the fall and the Dems sitting back and once again scratching their proverbial heads. Think about it people, the only successful candidate the Dems have had since JFK has been Bill Clinton and that was not without the HUGE battle he had to fight with the Repubs. The Repubs were obsessed with getting the presidency back and did everything they could to discredit Bill Clinton. A Dem can only win if they are in the center. Why the party continues to support and back far left candidates is beyond me. There is no way that Obama will be elected, especially in a time of war and economic collapse–it will not happen. That is why we need more than two parties in this country. We are often left with voting for the lesser of two evils which is exactly what will happen in November. McCain will win because Obama is a lefty who is bordering on the unknown. His influences with anti-patriotism and Marxist philosophy will do him in.

I have changed my party affiliation, because I cant take what the Dnc has done to this party. They wont take the credit for it. No they will blame Senator Clinton who has given her whole life to public service. They make me sick. Let them clean up their own mess at the Dnc. They have split this party not obama and not clinton. Thanks to them, Clinton is being asked to step down, and Obama presumpted nominee will be beat by McCain in Nov. and his political career will be over. Have any of you thought of that? Hilary can recoop in 2012 but he cant. Just like Kerry. Superdelgates are making mistakes by choosing early. Ted Kennedy and Kerry arent even voting with their states. Thats not the will of the people. Notice how little you are hearing from them these days. They are politicly doomed too. Well I hate to say I told you so. but I told you so. So for all of you voting for obama good luck in neverland. I am independent now

Somebody.... please...MAKE IT STOP!!!

((go barack!))

This is beautiful. I respect that Hillary wants to gradually phase out. I just hope she will do it in a positive way. No more negative attacks and divisive politics.

People really need to wake up and realize that in order to save and/or change this country; we need to be united as one. No black, white, Native American, Hispanic, Asian, red states, blue states, gay, straight, young, or old. We are all our brothers and sisters keepers; because we are Americans.

Just like the black, white, Native American, Hispanic, Asian, gay, straight, young, and old Americans; that is over there fighting for us. At the end of the day, the blood that is shed is red. No different color. And the money that is being spent is green.

We rise and fall as one nation

Let's unify people.

I love you all!!!!

Peace

Clinton can't afford to look like she's weak or a quitter. i think she's well aware that she's not going to claim the nomination.
but she'll want to run again at some point and if she looks like she's a weak leader or one that quits when the going gets rough, she'll have even more trouble securing the nomination at that time.
i agree with those who say that she should back out now. a good leader has to know when to say when, but i do understand why she may be continuing. with three weeks left i say let her continue.
the dems don't need to risk disenfranchising a majority of women voters by pushing her out. if she's not willing to concede by the end of June, then its time to move her out. its also not very wise to risk the election based on one (very important) gender's feelings.

sorry Hill

Rovian tactics worked bush, but it didn't work for u this time.

try again; hmmmmm...yr 2016 to be exaxct!

Obama '08 & 2012!

yes she will !

what makes Hillary and her supporters think that, if she manages to steal the nomination ( could only be a steal at this point), the vast majority who voted for obama would happily accept being tricked and vote for her in november ?

Obama suppoters WOULD NOT GO AND VOTE FOR McCain...They' d just stay home.

The smart thing to do would be to get behind the front runner and start campaigning against the Republicans. Smart isn't even in the Clinton neighborhood. Just hardworking, uneducated whites.

Mrs. Ricks, I don't know if you realize it but registering in a party doesn't lock you in to vote for that party's nominee. Democrats will cross over as they have in the past to the Republican party one more time in 2008.

John McCain will win in November.

You people who are supporting Obama are really ugly. Do you all remember when al gore won the pop vote here in florida, and Gw bush was picking out his transition team, just ignoring all the recounting etc? That is exactly what your doing to Clinton. Pushing her out and there are alot of States out there who havent voted yet? If I were Hilary I would run as an independent... Seriously folks she will win the big states and take the nomination. We already know shes gonna win Florida and Michigan, because we have been through enough already. Sounds like Obama is the same old politics if you ask me. Oh by the way if he does win, I can guarentee he will not honor the signed pledge he made with John McCain. Then all of you will realize what we already know. I am sorry I hear alot of racist comments reguarding why we are not voting for obama. Far from it people. He has no record, has no experience. GW had more experience than him, That is toooo scarey for me. Stop being racist and vote with your head.

Obama-Edwards for President first Tuesday of November this year!

Hopefully she keeps it clean until then. Obviously Obama isn't interested in contributing to any trouble, he's moved on to repairing the party already.

If she goes heavily negative like she has the last month the supers will end it for her. I suspect that was communicated because she's come out much softer this week.

Nobody has seen Berry win or do anything except be handed the nomination by the press and the Republicans. He has not won anything it has been given to him and it is all because of his color and the fact the republicans know they can not beat Hillary. Ask my black boss and co workers why they voted for him, and they are all women. Because of his color and only that. They all have this illusion that with him in there they are going to get my job, my boss's job. A house, a car, an education. You all are nuts. I worked for my job, I went to school to get an education, I worked to get my house and car. Nothing has been handed to me, I worked and saved. Nothing is going to change for them. Why because they like to scream discrimination and file discrimination charges.

Hillary was the best choice. Too bad she wasn't appreciated by the American democrats. You will regret it if she leaves this race.

Disappointed democrats, those of you who love your country more than party of obviously unqualified candidate, come on over to McCain. He is well experienced and proven statesman. He will be a great president for ALL the people, not just the Blacks and "elitists".

Yes 4 more years of Bush, if people start thinking with their heads instead that with their .................!! not saying that they will vote for a republican or stay home shame on those people, it's actually so disgusting to me how people can think like that!!!!>.. Yes, if people are going to react so childish then yes we are going to have 4 more BUsh years!!!!..

I'm for Obama 100%, but for some reason he doesn't get elected to run for the presidency, I would never react in such ridiculous way to say I won't vote for HIllary on NOV, that would be so stupid and ignorant on my part!!!
But unfortunaly some people are either ignorant !!!

"If Senator Clinton would change and run as an independent, she would be our next president."

Not in this version of reality. She'd be another Ross Perot – a joke and a sideshow.

Let them both finish it out so all the voters have the right to make the choice. It is highly doubtful that the outcome will change and this way no one can say they weren't give the chance to vote. Except MI and FL of course – which was not the delegates fault! Maybe if she stays in to the end and cuts out the negatives the party can finally unite behind one candidate without the crossover to back McCain by disgruntled voters.

Personally I think all primaries should be held in a 1 or 2 month time with all candidates remaining in until the end. It sucks right now that someone is out before your state even has a chance to vote.

Obama '08

I will never give my vote to Obama. What you will see is more medic-aide, welfare, etc. Not to mention his wife. That woman really scares me.

Think she will still be running after we have a sworn the next president into office

Obama/Democrats 2008+

Lets see how many more new democrats he will bring to congress and the house

This is the second time that I have tried to get in on this. Please let Sen. Clinton continue until all voters are heard from. My candidate pulled out before our primary but i still voted for him. I know it didn't count, but it was my way of protesting.
I can only hope that after November (no matter who wins) the Democratic Party will eliminate the Super-Delegates and go to a winner take all strategy. It would also be great if they would set one day for a primary date and let all states vote together. Imagine all the money that would be saved and we would have our nominee without all this bickering and back biting.

If it's God's will for Obama to be the next president, nothing or no one will be able to stop it....that's the kind of God I serve....and so far the kitchen sink and the house foundation has been thrown at him and he's still standing......However, if it's not meant for him to be the Presiden then since basically Hillary agrees that she can win without the black, young and well educated democract supporters, I can stay home for real if they give her the nominee....

For the love of this countrey...I sure hope you are right. Sooner rather then later.

OBAMA 08

Hillary Clinton is "more electable"? You mean except the fact she can't raise money, can't run a decent campaign, can't figure out how to fix healthcare, and can't even win the Democratic nomination, losing to a freshman Senator nobody from Illinois?

Yeah, she's more electable all right. To the annuls of political parody.

I can't help but notice how ignorant Obama supporters are. This just goes to further the stereotype. Is it even a stereotype anymore? No, they're just ignorant. Clinton carried almost EVERY big state. How can people possibly think Obama would do better int he general? IDIOTS!

This is nothing new – why is this news? Hilllary has always said the race will be over once all states have had the chance to vote, Michigan & Florida are counted and superdelegates decide who is the best candidate for the party and to win! Clearly that has always been and still is Hillary (i.e. Obama cannot win) and since the difference will be about 100 delegates the decision is essentially split. This is the reason for having superdelegates – they have a (partial) say just like everyone else! Let EVERYONE decide.

Hillary '08

Fools. Obama will lose by a landslide in November. Makes you think the Republicans are footing his campaign expenses.

Once again I see that the CNN moderators are shucking good factual posts with questions that must be answered by Obama and his supporters if they hope to gain the support in November of Clinton supporters.

Once again I'll try;

IS OBAMA'S VICTORY A FRAUD!

College students are giving up their dependant status to register to vote in their college towns stacking Congressional Districts heavy in Delegates. Is this fraud or are they really contacting their finacial aid providers and their parents insurance companies of their new legal residence? If not it is fraud and they should be identified and charged…

HILLARY CLINTON IS SO SELFISH!!!! GREEDY!! NO , SHE'S NOT STRONGER AT ALL, SHE'S FULL OF GREED!!! STEP DOWN ALREADY, NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO, POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS ETCCC YOU ARE DONE..

I guess her attitude is, if she can't have the white house, Obama isn't gonna get it either! That is a Clinton!

Will never vote for an unqualified candidate, even if I have to vote for the other party nominee. This is not a joke, and it is sad how many Americans have been fooled and brain washed by empty promisses. But it is still OK, because he has no chance against McCain, and as a democrat, I hate to admit that! Perhaps Hillary is not perfect (what politician is?), but at least she is strong and she gets it and provides ideas and solutions; even after 2 years it is still not clear what Obama wants to do "specifically"! This is sooooo sad, and sooooo disappointing. The people of America, at least the Republicans it seems, are not as naive and will set this whole mess straight. Another 4 years of Republicans in the White House, and then hopefully Hillary or another qualified candidate from the Democratic Party will run and win the election. Obama is a phony, acts like a phony, sounds like a phony and walks like a phony.

Obama is as arrogant as Bush and we all know what that brought us.

Theresa,

Just because it's never happened before, doesn't mean it never will. After all, he did win Iowa. That wasn't supposed to happen. There are virtually no black people in Iowa.

It seems that, every time someone says that Obama can't achieve something, he does it. He just singlehandedly beat the most powerful politicians in the world – The Clinton Machine. He must be doing something right.

Both Obama and McCain have a greater than zero chance of becoming President.

Unfortunately, I can't say that about Hillary Clinton.

matt you are dense the big O will spank billary to end this mess. he will win3/6 and the 3 that he loses will be by no more than 3% SEE YA!!!!!!!!!!

Now...if this is true, why is she asking for a debate in Oregon?

I hope it is true and that she's giving her supporters (the petty, "i'll vote for mccain if i don't get my way" ones) the time to get used to her not being around and giving them a gentle push to vote for the democratic nominee.

DEMOCRATS UNITE UNDER OBAMA!

This is past sad – moved to tragic – if she doesn't bow out gracefully before she is forced out it will be the end of her career for no reason. Dignity still matters. Please please please HIllary – we still need you – you would be an awesome Senate Majority Leader – you would be an awesome Governor of New York – if you keep up this craziness you won't be able to do either. Practice what you preach – RESPECT THE VOTERS – WE HAVE SPOKEN – and please – DO IT NOW.

HILLARY CROSS OVER TO THE REPUBLICAN THEY WILL TREAT YOU BETTER THEN THE DNC HAS. we need you john mccain needs you i hope he ask you to be his vp that would teach the dnc for the way an all the obama people have treated you with all there hate. if not at least take away the speaker of the houses job you are perfect.

Jim nobody can tell you what Obama stands for b/c all of his sermons..oops I mean speeches have been nothing but double talk. Everyone one has fallen for this slickster in a high priced suite. I am an African American woman who is embarrased to be a registered democrat! Once again we are supporting someone who will not win the general election. Just b/c he is popular doesn't mean he can be president, we should have learned that from the Al Gore disaster. If I even vote on election day I will write in Hillary's name before I vote for this Chi-town slickster

Why June 15,why not june 3?

I believe Wright is right, maybe he knows Obama, maybe our chickens are coming hope to roost. I am totally abandoning voting for dems if Hillary isn't the nominee as I think most independents will. McCain is not a terrrible alternative. He's not stupid like George. At least he won't abandon our country or hand it over to terrorists and muslims who hate us, unlike Obama who wants to sit and chat with them. He's been a Christian for 20 years, what was he before that. Most boys love their mothers but they identify themselves through their fathers-even if they leave them as young children. I know this to be fact, so where is it then that Obama identifies – Kenya maybe? Nothing takes the place of your heritage.

Clinton, I really do appreciate the strong compaign that you have held all this long. I would like to advice you to quit the race soonest possible because I strongly believe that your opponents want you to spend upto the last penny in this compaign. Then, you know what? You lose the nomination and lose millions of dollars too. That means, in simple terms, Obama beat you two nill. How about this, try to strike a deal with Obama so that you at least secure a VP before someone who never spend a penny in this compaign grabs it. At least you will have something to count on. Again, running on a duel ticket would boost the solidarity amongst the democrats and that is the main take home point.

Think Hillary and keep thinking.. remember a dying man clutches at a straw... the VP post is more than a straw, so u will be clutching at something more than a straw.

Bye Clinton and look forward to seeing you as a VP

Jim:

Can you please tell me what Hillary's stands are since they keep changing from day to day, state to state and primary to primary? Please treat yourself to Time magazine where it is clearly stated that Mr. Obama has more governmental experience (time and legislative) than Hillary. Hillary doesn't have the experience she lies so deftly about ... face it.

I'm so tired of hearing that it's time for a women president, about the reminiscent 90s (because we are in a different era in case you didn't notice), and her selective math and demography depending on the state she's currently focusing on.

What is she waiting for GO AWAY HILLARY .OBAMA 2008

Does anyone have a suggestion for s good liberal candidate to vote for? If Hillary is forced out, I need to look around.

As a liberal for many years, I cannot in good conscience vote for Obama because of his racist and antisemitic friends and organization membership. I see we just heard from Sharpton – remember his anti-jewish remarks?

I suggest a write in campaign for Al Gore.

The DNC and Obama might as well send out email saying "all serious liberals please leave as quickly as possible – go away".

If McCain wins it is Obama's fault – although I am sure there will be the usual whining and blame.

it is time for hillary to quit
she is being a lot nicer now and i feel she will help people get over the sadness of her loosing. i support obama and i feel she will be vp

BS.. i dont believe a word of it. I honestly believe she is staying in to try to re-coup her debts and i cant say i blame her though. Who wants to smell like a loser and be stuck with the dry-cleaning bill for it?

when i vote in nov. i will write her name in. don't b blaming hillary's supporters 4 this, 4 more yrs. of bush. all u'l obama supporters r the blame, becuz u'll can't see, but come jan. when mccain is being sworn in then it's going 2 b 2 late.

Hillary thinks she is entitled to the presidency. What a shame!

Do you think that I'll believe it? Not really. Clintons are Clintons. Power is over everything else.

We can only hope. Not sure what she's thinking by waiting. Maybe she'll re-sign the Senate also and do us all a favor? Then her and Billcan get their divorce and she can come out of the closet?

Mr. O'Donnel does not know what he is talking about. Hillary Clinton should not quit until a candidate has gotten the required "Delegates" that are needed to become the nominee. keep in mind that the "Super Delegates" can always change their mind about their supporting Obama. It is important to choose the person that WILL win against McCain.

Obama CANNOT win against McCain in November! And if Obama is the nominee, then I as a democrat, will end up voting for McCain. I don't want some sort of "Rookie" or a "OJT" President. I want a President that can get us out of the mess that this President (Bush) got us into.

If Obama becomes our next President, then I do believe that Obama will end up taking us further down and deeper in a mess than we already are.

WAKE UP AMERICA! We truly need Hillary Clinton to become our next president or we are ALL going to regret that the "Blind" followed the "Pied Piper" instead of choosing Hillary Clinton as our next President!

MARK MY WORDS!

June 15th is about a month and 6 days too long!

I just finished a nice PowerPoint presentation showing 2,025 reason why Hillary should go home (wherever that is).

I've been unable to figure out why anyone would be a Clinton supporter throughout this race.

However, after reading all the Clinton supporters' childish comments about how they'll vote for McCain over Obama, it all became quite clear.

Clinton's supporters are just like her – petty, small-minded, and shortsighted – so, naturally they prefer the candidate they identify with more.

Hillary's "clear exit strategy" now..., is to come back in four years and run against McCain's re-election in 2012, wink, wink...

Do you think she'll have enough money to carry her to June?

Since she is getting so much support from white voters, maybe they can float her a loan – subprime, of course!

In September 2007, the Clinton campaign formally pledged not to participate in primary or caucus elections staged before Feb. 5, 2008, in defiance of Democratic National Committee rules. She now says that delegates from Florida and Michigan should be seated at the Democratic Convention, despite their flouting of rules that all the major Democratic candidates endorsed. Hillary has been disingenuous on a few issues during this race. It would be very hard to believe the Clintons' would support Obama's general elections efforts wholeheartedly.

Why should Clinton quit. Do football teams quit when they're behind? To tennis players stop playing if they're behind? Listen Obama has not received the required votes as yet and who knows what might happen.

Jim, in answer to your question Obama stands for hope and change. I think he is hoping he can change Washington. Fat chance.

I still believe Clinton is the better candidate for the general election as Obama has not shown he can take the large states or the swing states. And I for one will not vote for Obama because I do not share his values nor do i believe he has been truthful about his relationship with Rev. Wright and the TUCC.

No she needs to exit the race now, no need to wait, the sooner the better.

What happened to Hillary's gas tax holiday? She said experts opinions doesn't matter so why she stopped talking about it?

Was that for her target IN audience only?

Let's hear more about that Gimmicky Gas Tax Holiday Dorothy…… I mean Hillary

Hillary Clinton, The Gimmick candidate
Bill and Hillary, The Gimmick Family
Do and Say Anything "08

I'LL BELIEVE IT AFTER THE "LITMUS TEST" BECAUSE SO FAR THERE IS NO OTHER PROOF OF AN "EXIT" STRATEGY AT ALL. SOUNDS LIKE BUSH'S IRAQ FAILED POLICY "POOR PLANNING GOING IN AND NO PLANNED EXIT STRATEGY".

. . . and Barack Obama has absolutely no chance of being anywhere near as capable a president as Sen. Clinton would be.

Wishful thinking on behalf of the media and pundits.

Hillary is being misquoted and will be balmed if Obama is not elected. She was quoting AP and throughout this campaign we have heard the demographics of this contest. 'Course if she says it it must be racist! Give me a break!

Hillary 2008/2012/2016..........................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To poster Sharon above!

You know – I had to slap myself when I read your post!

You are right! If Al Shapeton is telling Hillary it's over – you know it's over! Ha,ha,ha,ha, what's even funnier is how he layed it out for her!

I wonder if he was ever a singer! Maybe Hillary can do some sit-ins!

Bob, you are sooooo right. lol.

I hope HIllary does not consider the VP position. She should follow the lead of the Obama-supporting Ted Kennedy and hope that Obama doesn't win just like the Kennedy's hoped that Stevenson didn't win in 1956. That opened the door for his brother in 1960.

The Clintons are the best minds in politics and they are years head of us in their planning. Hillary, if you are not the nominee go for it again and keep on fundraising!

Hillary in 2012 (if not 2008) and 2016!

Ever since Hillary's fabrication of running through sniper fire, it has become increasing clear that she is suffering from mental health issues.

The voters' preference has become irrelevant to Hillary. What do they know? It's the 800 superdelegates who should get to choose the party's nominee – not the millions of ordinary people who went to the polls.

This lady needs psychiatric attention.

HIllary if you want to do something nice tell your supporters to support Obama then you will prove to all of us that you are true Democrat, instead of wasting time we should be concentrating beating Mccain.

Every vote counts. GO HILLARY!

It appears that it will now be up to the general election voters to determine what change we can believe in for America. Whether it springs from rhetoric and manner or whether it is based on courage and self-sacrifice. Whether change arises from replacing one political party with another or whether it depends more on the candidate's proven record of change. Whether change is the result of selecting our president based upon superficial appeal or by the content of his character. And whether, in the end, real change is delivered by inspirational speeches or whether it requires heroic effort and straight talk to produce meaningful and lasting change.

Americans for McCain '08

For all the Obama supporters who truly believe he will bring about change, can you point to one, just one, piece of legislation that he authored or was involved with during his two years in Congress that demonstrates a desire for change? He's a good talker, but his record as a polititian does not show any ability (yet) to bring about change in Washington. Clinton, on other hand, from her days on the WalMart board to her days as first lady and as a senator were all about change – changing WalMart's policies, lobbying for healthcare and sponsoring groundbreaking bills. You may not like Hillary, and you may think it's over for her, but with HIllary we know exactly what we're getting – a career polititian who has dedicated her entire working career to helping people. We simply don't have that with Obama and that is one major reason he will not win the general election if he is nominated.

That's a long time for her to tout the notion that white Americans are not ready to vote for a black man; forgetting that many polls have suggested that Americans are ready to vote for a black man more than they are ready to vote for a woman president. I don't vote for anyone based on my emotions. I vote for someone who has something to offer my family and this country. I pray she makes makes an ealier exit before June 15th.

What a load of crap. Leave NOW.

The fact of the matter is : The Clinton era is OVER. Let's move on.

Why should Hilary quit, Obama has the same "math problem" she has, granted not as bad but he can't win either until the convention. The media is so biased it makes me sick, they know he has the same math problem but that goes unreported. I would not vote for either of these socialists fools anyway. JFK would be aligned closer to republicans today if he was still alive. Obama is a racist who has extremely poor judgement and is basically a well spoken con man. He cannot win a general election in my opinion due to his inexperience and the piss poor judgement he continues to show.

Why do we have to wait that long? End the long national nightmare already.

Good because Hillary is a racist and that is the reason she lost the Black vote In South Carolina Hillary wants to divide us Obama is a uniter.

She needs to leave now. I'm starting to feel sorry for her. Hasn't she been booed and heckled enough? Please Hilary, keep what little dignity you have and LEAVE now!

If she plans on leaving then she should leave. She can count obviously. If she cares about her party and her country then she should do the right thing and leace gracefully now and unite the party. Properly apologixe to Barack Obama for using the race card over and over and start focucing on fighting the republicans for the fall. Otherwise, she should get out of politics all together, cause she is done in NY.

Clintons never quit. That is so annoying.

That's too long.

I hope you are right!! With the Clintons one never knows though!

Of course Mr. O'Donnel also said in this interview that Hillary would be gracious and a uniter during this time. Like yesterday when she spoke about getting the White Vote?

This is very sad.... Omaba will not be elected in the Fall...here comes another 4 years of Bush.

Thanks for trying Hillary...you would have been awesome, just what the country needed to rebound... Its a big loss for America

This sounds like the kind of unsubstantiated story you'll find on squeezingbucks.com. At least THEY say it's all made up.

Can anybody please tell me what Obama's stands are?

Everyone is being very unfair to Senator Clinton. Change will not occur when Senator Obama enters the white house. He will have to follow the same process that every other candidate promised on the campaign trail and then became president. And when it comes to the final decision there will be a reason why it can't happen. Senator Clinton is keeping it real and Senator Obama is giving hope that is not going to happen for some time.

I don't think anyone will have a problem with her staying in until mid-June if she stops saying stupid and divisive things.

her supporters are angry at her loss ,and the longer she puts off the inevitable,the longer they will stay angry.some may never return to the party.some are promising to vote for mccain.are you losing it,hillary?please drop out ,now!you're only making things worse,than you made them ,in the first place.you had your chance,and you used negative tactics to try to catch up,and it didn't work.when you attacked obama ,personally,you began this carnage w/in the party.if we don't win in november,hillary will be personally responsible.

would rather stay at home than vote for OBAMA...disappointed that everyone just chooses to ignore the fact that he'll likely lose the general election....

Someone tell the Gimmick Candidate Carl Rove is on the phone, he has something to tell her.

From what I heard, the GOP dumped Hillary after Tuesday. They thanked her for her hard work and how she followed their every instruction but they declined her membership application to the GOP party, they called her a JUDAS

Hillary Clinton, The Gimmick candidate
Bill and Hillary, The Gimmick Family
Do and Say Anything "08

Hillary should not have:

-lied about her 35 years of experience
-Bosnia sniper fire
-Whites only vote for her
-pandering to voters e.g. slamming shots of whiskey, pumping gas, having Mexican boy dancing on stage during Texas primary
-lying about letters written and handed to her from soldiers in Iraq
-NAFTA
-Saying "as for as I know" when asked if Obama was a Muslim

I could go on. But these should be lessons learned for her. I used to support her and her husband. But that is long gone unfortunately.

I thank God for one thing in this Democratic race and it is the number of people who have registered under the democratic party one than a million I last heard. This mean we can do it in November. Mrs. Clinton please give us a chance and stop thinking about yourself. Let's UNITE!
Thank you,

Better late than never!

Thanks you,

She is going to the convention floor

Hillary isn't listening. She's still at it, damaging the chances for the Democrats to take back the White House. She's fomented anger and bitterness on all sides with her scorched-earth campaign against Barak. She's even played on the color of his skin, hard as that may be to believe!

Fact is, I used to think highly or her. That's gone, never to return. And yes, I would swallow hard and vote for her come November if she were nominated.

I'm also firmly convinced that a lot of the haters on these forums were never Democrats, in spite of what they say, and are there at the bidding of Rush Limbaugh to foment division.

Women especially need to seriously reconsider their backing for her. She's damaging their cause.

We need to come together, and unite behind the presumptive candidate. Those who have yet to vote can help heal the wounds now by voting for Barak.

As long as she behaves and doesn't spend any more time or money tearing down the Democratic nominee, that is fine.

All Obama supporters should be respectful of her decision – a few weeks isn't going to do anything bad, as long as she keeps it positive.

good, and then we can all get together and defeat the GOP

to all HRC supporters saying u will vote for McCain just because HRC lost

just think you want those gas prices to go higher? you want more time in iraq? how about iran next??

you want nothing to change?? then go with mccain

HRC and obama have very very similar policies essentially they are the same candidate just have different personalities

you cannot vote against the party just because of sour grapes

look at the bigger picture!!

Democrats in 08

Kevin, I second that motion.

Why are all of my statements under moderation. CNN what is wrong with that statement)

She'll stop tearing down the party?...... Get outta here!!!...... Never!!!!
Oh god I'm sick to death of this person..... mommie {DNC} make it stop!!!!

At which point about 20% of Hillary's supporters – myself included – will declare their support for John McCain. He may not be perfect, but he is battle tested and can be trusted to serve as Commander in Chief.

Thank you for your information sir.

By the way love your show but why in the hell's name did you let Rob Lowe and then Sorkin leave it?

Hillary...please exit the race. You need to move on. You did not get your way and now it is time for you to leave.

Wow O'Donnell you must be a psychic...
How lame is Hollywood people?

We all understand that Obama will be the nominee, but it has been a difficult campaign and it will benefit the party if everyone shows Clinton and her supporters respect. Let her make the decision and let her leave with dignity. Further dividing the party by angering supporters will make it more difficult to unite in November.

Word Out Hillary!

I will believe when I see it. She might want to take the party down with her.

I am a Clinton supporter but more importantly I am a Democratic supporter and all the hate coming from our party towards one another is sadding....It is not the candidates fault the polictical bashing has gone on for a long time but to see the people of this country throw so much hate is just crazy.....here is something for you HATERS to chew on. "STOP BLAMING HILLARY AND OBAMA THE HATE IS YOUR FAULT." Stop keeping misery company........I hope she does drop out for her sake and believe me it will be a sad day because McCain will win in November. I will vote my party even though I really don't care for Obama nothing personal he just leaves a bad taste.....BTW before people start calling me a uneducted for supporting Hillary I am college educated, African American Woman in her 30's I am also a disabled Gulf War Vet so you can bash and hate me all you want. If you wan the Democratic Party united stop blaming the candidates and take a long hard look in the mirror and change your hate.....

He is probably right. Superdelegates will risk the country rather than their career.

I just want to say, that Obama will be our nominee and to all the Clitons supporters who claim they are voting for McCain is very stupid! Do you really want your sons and daugthers to continue a meaningless war for 100 years or more or do you want peace and better jobs and lower gas prices? Vote for any democratic nominee and kick the republicans out! ONLY MAKES SENSE!

If this is the case, as a registered Democrat I will be campaigning my heart out for John McCain.

Sounds good to me.

John McCain will win Florida, since the DNC doesn't care about Florida, I know that he will get my vote if Obama has the nomination.

How can you believe what the Huffington Rag says.

Better late than never.

Hillary will be in the race by herself, she is talking to herself right now because Obama and McCain is not paying her any mind. She is just wasting her supporters time – trying to get her money back that she has loaned her campaign – she is fooling her supporters once again.

Hillary you are pathetic! You are trying too hard……let it go please, save the little respect and dignity you have left. This your Kitchen-Sink Campaign has been a failure. Honestly B, what is your goal? Is it to make Obama unelectable in November? Its time you graciously withdraw before we carry you and throw you out! Congratulation Obama, we are almost home!

Our President Obama 08’ & 12’

You know its bad when even Al Sharpton has to tell you its over!

Hillary should be trying to heal the Dem. party, not still trying to divide it.

Her exit strategy is to completely drive a wedge in the democratic party which could possibly get McSame elected.

This will set her up for 2012, and at what costs. Four more years of the same that will put this country into a depression.

Her do or die attitude or all of about self-centered power, not about the people.

good bye hillbilly
we will def not miss you
thank you for dividing america
thas ur legacy
like bill's legacy is the blue dress.
good bye hill
america has spoken
na na na na
hey hey hey hey
goodbye

This race should have been ended. The fact is people respect Hillary so much, they let this bull crap continue on.

The stupid Democratic Party will pay a price that they can't afford in the general election if obama is the nominee!. And terrorists are laughing and happy now for obama!!!

While I do believe Obama has won, I was glad to see him hitting the campaign trail again today and going after Pledged delegates. He needs to stay focused on this thing till the end, not so much for pressing the votes, but if this is indeed for the party, they need to have both candidates participating and giving these final states their voice. Democrats will hopefully realize how differently Rep policy under McCain is so different than Clinton, or Obama. They may not be excited about their party's candidate, but to go the other way will be disaster.

Still mathematically possible... though incredibly unlikely. But you never know. With both the Republicans and the Clintons looking for a way to smear Mr. Sunshine... they just might find one that would do enough damage. They came close with Rev. Wright, but to no avail since the very base of Obama's support was also put on the defensive with that one. But she has a right to stay in and quit when she's ready. What does it matter. We thought Kerry vs. Bush was a lousy choice to have to make. But Obama vs. McCain or Clinton vs. McCain is even worse. Vote Libertarian... unless their candidate is Barr... in which case... geez maybe we should revolt! lol

Why waste everyone's time then? Let the democrats begin their focus on McCain and bow out now. You're pathetic, Hillary.

What is she planning to accomplish by the 15th? Why not now? Trying to safe face? If she was in Obama's shoes right now, she would be beating i am the winner drum and will be forcing Obama to quit. But we all know Obama is not that type of person.

Quit Now Hillary, you do not have any reason to be around.

Is time for her to end things now, she has proven to be a fighter and will go to any length. Her time will come again.

Sorry Hillary, not this time. Will you let us begin healing and unite as a party.

If Senator Clinton would change and run as an independent, she would be our next president.

One of the main reasons I won't vote for Obama is the meanness, nasty, down right cruel comments from his supporters regarding Senator Clinton. Other reasons include he is not at qualified, he is arrogant, both he and his wife ooze a sense of entitlement, plus their radical beliefs. He can come across as the nice guy since his supporters do all the back stabbing for him.

I repeat . . . If Senator Clinton would change and run as an independent, she would be our next president.

Thank you......... If it's true... Why wait til then??? I guess she just wants to see how much more damage she can do...

Well, I sure hope so! However, from the looks of it, this ole-girl wants to fight til August...lol

BE Nice Eeveryone. Yes, I do agree she should end it now giving the whole party more time to re-unite and develope a plan to kick the Republicans out of the White House. Yet we must show some respect to the Senator who although misjudged the whole campaign process making several tactical error's she did run a good race. So give the Senator some respect and let it run it's course, as we all know how it will end in the long run.

Why? I mean, this DOES not change the facts. Let's stop wasting time and get focusing on Sen. McCain. The more time she takes to concede is just wasted time at this point. It's a stall tactic, nothing more.

I'm sorry, Sen. Clinton need NOT wait till June, it doesn't change her LOST in any shape or form.

I think this is just another delay tactic on Sen. Clinton's part to delay the reality. I think once Sen. Obama gets more superdelegates, it's over, there will be NO NEED to wait till JUNE. She support will have dried up and she won't have the finances to continue on through MAY.

I mean that's the reality, she needs to deal with it NOW rather than later.

This is getting downright silly.

In my best-case scenario, Obama will head the ticket. He will choose Hillary to VP with the understanding that she will be responsible for pushing the Legislaive Agenda in the Senate. Just for good measure, I would love to see Bill as the Secretary of State.

I will believe it when I see it!

Democrats, we need to come together. You need to stop threatening to vote for John McCain. John McCain is going to try to overturn Roe V. Wade, he is going to keep us in Iraq and possibly go into Iran, he represents the failed policies of the Bush administration. Obama and Clinton have very similar views, their main difference lies in their personality.

Please don't vote for him out of spite, think logically.

won't believe until i see it. hillary is a stalker.

THATS WHAT YOU THINK ODONALL. I THINK SHE HAS SOMETHING UP HER SLEVE. I HOPE SHAPTON SHUTS THE DEM CONVENTION DOWN IF SHE PULLS SOME SLICK STUFF. YOU HEARD OF SLICK WILLIE, BUT YOU HAVE NEVER FELT THE STING OF SLICK HILLIE

So Some people are saying they are going to split the remaining 3 states.. Others are saying shes going to carry all 6 state.

It really depends on how Divided this country has become over the race issue from Rev. Wright. and Barack Obama.

I think HIllary Clinton will Win 5 out of the remaining 6 States, Barack obama will have the amount of delagates to give him the nomination. Hillary clinton will have the popular vote..

( am i wrong to say this outcome is the most likely outcome )

.. then democrats have to face the republicans calling us Hypocrites.

Bye Hillary. Shoo fly.

I hope he's right. I really hope he's right. This needs to end. Yesterday.
