PRESTONSBURG, Kentucky (CNN) – Hillary Clinton defended her reasoning for staying in the presidential race Monday afternoon by pointing out that Karl Rove's analysis shows her to be the strongest candidate against John McCain in November.
“There has been a lot of analysis about which of us is stronger to win against Sen. McCain, and I believe I am the stronger candidate,” said Clinton, repeating a line from her stump speech.
Then she veered from her usual argument.
“Just today I found some curious support for that position when one of the TV networks released an analysis done by – of all people – Karl Rove, saying that I was the stronger candidate,” said Clinton. “Somebody go a hold of his analysis and there it is.”
Clinton was referring to electoral maps drawn up by Karl Rove’s consulting firm that were obtained by ABC and forecast her currently leading McCain in the electoral college by 53 votes (259-206), while Obama trails McCain by 17 (238-221)
270 electoral votes are needed to win November’s election.
Clinton continued to push for Florida and Michigan’s delegates to be seated but said that even if that happens, the race won’t be over.
“Once we include Florida and Michigan, neither Sen. Obama nor I will have enough delegates to get the nomination so there is no way that this is going to end any time soon because we’re going to keep fighting for the nomination.”

She must be desperate to cite Rove as her reason to stay in....poor nut case!
Republican Clinton once again, she's playing on Rove's words???
I think they have been working together throughout this campaign
You gotta be kidding me Hiliary. Come "sweetie"...put the royal crown dowwwwwwnnnnnn
That's so sad, having to rely on Karl Rove for anything. I would think any self respecting Democrat or Republican would want to get as far a way from that guy as they possibly can. Next she'll be quoting Bush, oh my!
LMAO..Rove is her reasoning????....
WOW! Now all we need is an endorsment from Bush and HRC should be in...
NOT!
The GOP still think that a small amount of rich white folks run the nation, like in the past.
But it's time for them to wake up... IT'S ALL ABOUT WE THE PEOPLE!
She keeps moving the goalpost. The only thing left at the end of the day will be a coup d'etat, which if she can, she'll attempt
She's using an excuse she can find to stay in. First it was her pledged delegate "lead" excluding all caucus votes and including FL and MI, which didn't even have Obama on the ballot. Now she is using Rove's analysis, which is based on WHAT?? Rove wants Hillary to be the nominee because she is easiest to beat. It's all political maneuvering on his end.
Relying on the lunatic views of Karl Rove to stay in the race is really scraping the bottom of the barrel for reasons to stay in, Hillary !!!!
Admit it. You've had your run. You've nearly wrecked the Democratic Party. Now it's time to bow out gracefully!
Rove? She can't be serious....nah....she's not serious.
Pathetic, desperate and extremely sad.
She really needs a second opinion.
Apparently the polls didn't include FL, MI, Ohio, PA, NY, MA NJ, KY and CA. Probably polled the bitter old farmers in Iowa and Nebraska. Won't it be something if Hillary wins Kentucky when the polls say she is behind by eleven or so points. Amazing how inaccurate the polls can be when they are run by the opposition.
Give us a break and go Hillary
Now, this is the clearest sign of desperation!
Oh boy... really – Karl Rove... desperate much Hillary?
Thankfully – there are only a few weeks left of this lunacy from the HRC camp.
It is unfortunate for S. Clinton that many people are not ready for a strong woman to be the US President for now!!! But the DNC has played right into the hand of the RNC and will pay for it in November if S. Obama is nominated!!!
YOUR WRONG CONNIELP. KARL ROVE IS RIGHT. THE PRESIDENT GETS ELECTED BY ELECTORAL COLLEGE. SHE DOES HAVE MORE ELECTORAL POINTS THAN OBAMA AND MC CAIN
Hillary!!! Pay attention!!!! Karl Rove has been a slimeball, and done NOTHING except make the political environment miserable for Democrats!!! Don't you think he might have a hidden agenda?!?!?!
If he can continue to create chaos in the Democratic nomination process, he can cause the nominee to be less prepared to go after McCain when the time comes! He's NOT endorsing you, he's making trouble for your party!
I am DUMBFOUNDED you would listen to Rove after all he has done!
No she didn't....Com'on Hillary girlfriend you know better. Don't sleep or eat with your enemies, they will feed you poison.
Obama 2008!
Oh no... She DIDN'T!!! Did she? Oh man...
Rush Limbaugh things you're a better candidate too. Why don't you cite him in your speeches?
Wow, this is absolutely ridiculous.
Please say she was at least half joking.
That's so sad, having to rely on Karl Rove for anything.
I keep telling you the Clinton's are in bed with the Republicans. People!! Big money is Republican. Just like CNN keeps pushing for Hillary. They do not want a true Democrat like Obama. CNN is owned and RUN by Republicans. Dare you to print this one CNN. You always delete the ones that tell the truth to the minions.
Ok, I have tried to be quiet and give Hillary her respect, but how can she actually accept what KARL ROVE has to say. She is trying anything now. I am getting upset......
If Rove wants to say that Hillary is stronger...it means he thinks the opposite.
75,000 in oregon?
GOP is scared out of their wits about Obama.
She just loves talking about herself doesn't she?
Maybe she should turn her focus towards us, our needs?
Instead of playing up how great she is?
Wow – how low will she go? Desperation is not pretty. Once a Goldwater Girl, always a Republican. How can any reasonable Democrat support her now?
This proves that Hillary and Rove are best friends.
I liked the way Karl is handling both democrats for McCain
I'm not sure I'd be touting that as a reason amongst Democrats. Seems kind of like a turn off.
Pathetic
LOL! People with addictions use lame reasons to continue doing what is not healthy.
How desperate has hillary become? What is wrong with this lady ?
I believe she is mentally ill, and should be considered a danger to this country .
it would appear the man is correct in this, he is no idiot in his math.
That's kind of like asking the Pope to talk bad about God or Bush to talk about his mistake of going to war or McCain's wife to talk about being a poor woman. Come on – Rove's analysis.... Next – Hillary will be a guest speaker for Rush lImbaugh.
She is just quoting give it a rest we all know Obama is King of the Jungle now.
Maybe Clinton would be better suited as a running mate for
McCain...
Oh, Hillary you poor thing...
You have stooped so low that you are looking for Karl Rove to bail you out? You poor thing!!!! THAT is desperation!!!
This is laughable...ROVE...of all people. I guess we should go with this...NOT!
We all know that if Karl Rove said it, it must be true.
So, now Democrats should follow the advice of Rove?
Yeah, Rove would *never* try to influence people to support the weaker candidate by saying he/she is the stronger, right? Just like Rush would never do that... oh, wait – he already has said he's done it several times.
Sheesh. This is getting ridiculous...
Has she been mainlining Maker's Mark??? When you start quoting Karl Rove's analysis after railing against his and Bush's policies, you know you are desparate. Especially after Rove's bringing back all the Wright B.S.
Everytime I think Hillary has become as pathetic as humanly possible, she puts her shoulder into it and surprises me again!
Go Hillary!
Racing towards irrelevancy!
A little strange. I think it is pretty clear what Rove's motivation is – continued democratic carnage. I'm sure he would say the same thing about Obama being stronger if Clinton was ahead but it was still this close.
Karl Rove looks like that guy from the FeedThePig.org commercials. Aside from that, I wouldn't trust anything the GOP says. The GOP would much rather run against you that Obama and that is a fact.
The longer you stay in this the more crap comes out. Like a major Clinton supporter trying to buy off the YDA for $1 million dollars.
No! No! No! You're the reason.....
At least she found one. Maybe she should look to the Hearings coming up in Novemeber with Judge Munoz.
Yeah and didn't Karl Rove say Bush was the stronger candidate as well??
Bloomgerg, and Buffett don't have enough mony to buy this election, and CNN is about worthless for their treament of Sen. Clinton.
Bad move, Hilldog..
I think I've had enough. What's next? Is she going to quote Dubyah on how her gas tax holiday is a good idea too?
Sisters
Listen to what you are saying. Your ego's are engaged. This is bigger than each of us. You are saying that it is more important to make an anti obama statement and vote for McCain. How about your daughters. You are making a decision that the courts can be overturned for more than 4 years. that your children will fight an unjust war.
All of this because you feel slighted. It is about the future for our children not our hurt feelings
Go Hillary!!!! We need you to beat Mccain!!! Barack cannot beat Mccain in November. He's already telling the republicans to lay off his wife and they haven't even started Yet.
LOL Hillary...we all know Rove never lies.
Mr. and Mrs. Clinton ,your lack of political judment, moral fiber, your difficult relation with the truth, are obscuring your mind.
It is sad to see you imploding this way....with no dignity, or vision for the future of this country.
Political narcissism is a bad thing , not just for you, not just for the Democratic Party, but for the U.S.A.
You two are becoming the Juan Domingo and Evita Peron of North America
Oh goodness. She looks more desperate by the minute. Has she no shame? No pride? How will she hold her head up after this if she continues to behave like a blathering idiot? The sheer desperation she is displaying makes me believe she is mentally unbalanced. Bill, take your wife in your arms, give her a kiss and tell her, "Honey, it's time to go home." This is a really sad caricature of what I once thought was a great woman. She has ruined her reputation here at home and abroad. Hill, you gotta know when to fold, honey.
Major sign of desperation, she now using Karl Rove the devil as a source of inspiration. I guess desperate times calls for desperate act.
For Christ sake Hillary keep your dignity in tact.
Karl Rove has other reasons for supporting Hillary. He needs a job and knows that his tactics are more Clintoness.
Why Primary Processs, Lets just ask Karl Rove....
Of course he wants you to stay in! The longer it drags out the better for McCain.
I knew it, I knew it, I knew it. You have been using Karl Rove's play book all the time and finally you can't hide it anymore. Go on quote him all you want. Like the saying goes 'He in this case she that is down needs fear no fall'. 'Man/Woman in hot water does not fear heat'. What else do you have to lose.
If Hillary thinks that any Democrat should believe one word that falls from Rove's lips, then she is horridly naive and not ready to lead our party as the nominee.
next she be saying Rush Limbaugh told me to stay in
Mcsame is the other reason , she is on the race.
Be more honest with us--please.
Hillary you are grasping at straws. Please end with dignity. You are right, we don't have a nominee yet, but the handwriting is on the wall. Don't be remembered not only as a say anything for a vote candidate but a spoiler as well.
There are other fish you can fry.
When Rove says Hillary would be the toughest candidate, that means she is the one Republicans want to face.
For all those Hillary supporters questioning Obama's judgment–what does it say about Hillary's judgment that she accepts and touts analysis by Karl Rove at face value?...Like he'd never have a reason or be smart enough to throw a wrench in Democratic nomination. One can just imagine what "wisdon" Hillary would believe from foreign leaders if she were president...
Save us Obama!!!
Um. What? Come on Hillary. Seriously? ROVE?!?!
Just drop out Hillary. I do support you before but now the math is over. I will support OBAMA because I will not support MCcain. MCcain will be running bush/MCcain
Please if you care about your party you should drop out.
CNN is really overrun by obamabots. It's pretty sad that they actually think Obama will win against Mccain....soon I will say "I told you so". Grow some brains, people.
Dear Hillary: West Virginia and Kentucky are only in your column till the primaries are over.
Obama said America has 57 states and you wants us to elect him as The President Of the United States!!!
Go Hillary go! We know you can win, now you have to convince the voters, who shouldn't be making up their mind just because the Kennedys say so.
OMG!....Now she's going to bring Karl Rove in as a reason she should continue her campaign...
Well I guess that just goes to show that she was using Karl's playbook during her presidential run anyway.
Obama 08,12 (need I say more)
First, Hillary says that if the democratic primaries followed the Republican rules she would the the Nominee.
Now, she cites one of the most republican, republican to argue her case.
I am an Hillary supporter. I am so dissapointed with you now!!
In Ohio she blamed Sen. Obama for using tactic right out of Karl Roves handbook when he mentioned NAFTA. Well is this the same Roves man?
Everyone is an honest person as long as they imply or state that she is the stronger candidate. Take any line you wish out of his handbook as long as it benefits her.
Unbelievable but true!!! Karl Rove has become a Clinton's supporter. And I have noticed that he has been given advice for our party (Dems). And now Hillary (she would be willing to grasp a TEN MILLION VOLT WIRE to become the nominee) is legitimazing one of the guys that have done the most damage to our country, domestically and abroad!!! "Cosas veredes, Sancho", said Don Quixote.
A Republican trick she should know better
How sad it is that Hillary has to look for support from none other than Karl Rove! This proves what I was thinking all along... Hillary is a bona fide republican... explains her "throw the kitchen sink" tactics.
NO SHE DID NOT, PLEASE
Be reminded that ROVE is Republican so is Hillary now suggesting that their advise be taken in consideration in the Dems nomination? This has been a problem for her, she thinks too much like a republican for the likings of most Democrats.
I can see it now: the day after Obama is sworn in, Hillary will run screaming from her tour bus, "...but I won!!! How can this be????
Lame. So very, very lame. She's been handed her hat and coat, but still refuses to leave.
Clintonian logic and mathematics defy all known paths of reason.
What will it take to get rid of this loon?
Hillary......You are going off the deep end!!! Now you find it acceptable to produce something positive coming out of the mouth of some1 you have basically called a criminal in the past!!!!!!!!! Please save whatever face you have and go into hiding for a bit. Your too good a woman to go out like this!!!
Well ain't that a BLIPP!!!!!!! Told you so. She's part of the "GRAND OLD PARTY" They plan to be around for another 20yrs. " Not This Time" . HITLLERY. She needs to be stopped NOW!!!!!!!!
If Hillary were a man, the DNC backroom boys
would've taken out in the alley a loooong time ago
to knock some sense into him/her.
SO she is getting kid glove treatment for being a female/shemale
I think that if Mrs. Clinton is going to stretch to Karl Rove's (nefarious) opinion , the Atwater of my generation, for her argumentative basis then the United States has already been saved be Obama once. Hillary was my candidate, but hat stopped in June, when she should have bowed out gracefully. She could have been the next Ted Kennedy, now she is the next Ross Perot!! so to speak.
Obama in 08 for 8 years!!!
Oh, Karl Rove says so.... Ok maybe I'll change my vote.... NOT!!
Hilary its time to let go!
Dems United!
Barack the Vote!
Wow, if you people could actually comprehend what you read you might be going places!
She said that Karl Rove called her the stronger candidate and it's true. The Republicans know they can beat Obama in the general election with one hand tied behind their backs. Hillary will be a much tougher opponent against McCain.
And Zoey, royal crown is a soft drink. Crown Royal is liquor. FYI, sweetie.
Whatever.............I guess she'll use whoever/whatever, even Karl Rove. She used the kitchen sink tactic before; she must be cleaning out the garbage disposal now. Look what got caught down in there....a shrew screaming nonsense!
Oh, I am completely sure Karl Rove is not up to any tricks saying Hillary would be a tougher opponent for the Republicans. I am sure he is not trying to divide the Democrats further by causing the nomination process to go to the convention. Do either George W. or Dick Cheney want to weigh in on this speculation? I am sure they, too, would give some genuine advice to the Dems.
First Hillary wants to change the Democratic nomination process over to what the Republicans use, now she wants to take the advice of the Republicans? I guess she is really banking on the support of the Reagan Democrats to carry her through.
Did anyone happen to mention to her that the Reagan Democrats are getting older and the young are going to be the ones to carry the Democratic Party into the future? Some foresight is needed in politics, unfortunately, Hillary's campaign has been stuck in the 90's and has been unable to adapt to the next generation.
Maybe Karl Rove has his own "Operation Chaos", but is a lot smoother than Limbaugh.
For Hillarious to look up to Karl Rove for analysis this late in the game, just show how she misjudge her chances of winning the democratic nomination!
This woman is broke ($$$millions in debt) and she is now looking up to the REPUBLICANS to do her political math for her!
Sorry lady, you've lost it!
Waiting for your next spin. NEXT!!!!!
Did she ever stop to think that he might be saying that to get the more beatable candidate nominated. Sounds like another one of his tricks and once again like the war....she's falling for it.
I wish I knew how to explain to so many women who are not voting for Obama because Hillary lost. There seems to be an expectation that Hillary would win and thus anyother outcome is unfair. She ran for office. That means there is a contest in which she could win or loose. She voted for the war, she lied about Sniper fire, she started with the politics of fear. Those are the reasons the majority of people did not vote for her. Does it not smack of punitive to vote against Obama because he won? I understand that NARAL is a Pro-Choice Org., but that does not make it a Robot without opinion. Women always have this "Do what I expect or I will destroy you" attitude going on. Destroy Obama because he dare run against Hillary, and Destroy NARAL because they dare endorse Obama. Is it only women who are suppose to have a choice in this world?
WOW! This has got to be one of the saddest campaign moments this year. Not the Hillary tears before New Hampshire. Not the Hillary battle cry, "Shame On You!" before Ohio. Hillary is now citing Karl Rove as a reason for her to stay the race. Once Hillary cites GW Bush as a source for her to stay in the race, her Gallup polling number will put her 35 pts behind Obama.
Obama...is within 110 delegates of clinching the nomination. Superdelegates are flocking to Obama a rate of 28 per week since May 6th. If Obama does better in Kentucky than expected and wins Oregon wider than expected, the superdelegates will move to Obama so that with June 3rd voting complete, Obama will be the presumptive Democratic nominee.
Obama in 08!
Come on lady, you can do better than this...If ever you have to lean, lean on a leader...
Say what you will about Karl Rove, but at least you can't say he wasn't successful! He knows how the game is played, and he knows that if the DNC primary was held like the GOP's, i.e., winner takes all, Clinton would have already cinched up the nomination.
Since when do Democratic voters care what Karl Rove has to say, and follow it?
She "thinks" like Bush, and Karl Rove..... Voters.... Look at HOW she has run her campaign ..... 20 million dollars in debt.... she threw the kitchen sink.... she lies with TOTALLY ease.
Obama/Hagel (I want Chuck Hagel to be VP)
I guess all liars like to stick together. She should never have used Karl Rove since he is a liar himself. Pretty desperate to use a man who won't answer for his wrongs.
Of all the voices to listen to, she zeros in on Karl Rove's. What a nut job...both of them!
What are these people going to do when Obama loses the general election... run to McCain???
poor hillary.. trying to save her face
Hillary, you are an Idiot!
You believed Karl Rove and Bush, and followed them into Iraq.
Now you are listening to them again, and following them by splitting the Democrat Party!!!
With issues on the economy, gas, housing, Iraq, and eavesdropping on citizens; anybody going against the Republicans will likely win. I think the recent election in Mississippi demonstrated that. It's good that Hillary is campaigning as long as she can. It keeps more eyes and ears on Democratic issues. Our pocketbooks and war casualties remind us of the quality of life the Republicans have brought us.
Well, if Karl Rove says its true...Now all you need is to capture 80% of all of the Super Delegates and you'll get the nomination!!
Basing your decision on the "analysis" of one of the most anti-American blowhards the world has ever seen...
I worry about what kind of acid flashbacks you'd have at 3 AM. You're clearly delusional and psychotic, and now you're a borderline Fascist, Neocon Psycophant.
WE KNOW ROVE WOULD RATHER HILLARY WIN.
SHE IS AS MICH A REPUBLICAN AS HE IS, & NOT A GOOD
ONE AT THAT. THAT IS NOT A SURPRISE.
THE SURPRISE IS THAT SHE IS STUPID ENOUGH TO SITE IT.
I guess she should have run as a republican. ..
hey why not have the Green Bay Packers play the super bowl since they had a better record than the Giants and a better shot at beating the patriots. Give me a break, you played the game and you lost!!!!!!
Now it's not "working, hardworking white voters" who are making Clinton to remain in this race: It's Karl Rove. It's not her experience and being ready on day one. She is very desperate. I don't know what would have happened if she had control of instruments that would have made it possible for rigging to take place. And you tell me African or Asia are the only places where are power-hungry politicians.
Hillary is becoming hysterical. We are not interested in her political antics. Go home please.
SAD & PATHETIC .........................
What does she not get? Of course Rove wants her to be the nominee. The Republicans would actually have a chance against her. Why does she think the Republicans had all these voters cross over for her in the primaries? God, for such a so-called smart woman, she is some kind of dummy – or is she just grasping at any straw offered. Karl Rove!
If Hillary is following Karl Rove's advice......she is more delusional than I thought~!!!
T. Kennedy was the one who decided to wreck the democratic party. Putting all that money against HRC to support a relatively unknown senator. Mysogeny was definately at work here. Sad to see all the rest of you go along with it. There is still time to put it right. I am praying for her.
Come on lady, you can do better than this...If ever you have to lean, lean on a leader...
HilLiar gets desperate and cites Lucifer for reasons to go down in flames
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Thanks Hillary, you just made my day.
Obama 08/12
Hillary would get her butt superkicked in an intelligence war. Obama sure used this weakness against her. It should be evident that as President this intelligence weakness of hers would become a national weakness.
You never take enemy intelligence at face value. It is meant to steer you on the incorrect path, Clinton camp.
With issues on the economy, gas, housing, Iraq, and eavesdropping on citizens; anybody going against the Republicans will likely win. I think the recent election in Mississippi demonstrated that. It's good that Hillary is campaigning as long as she can. It keeps more eyes and ears on Democratic issues. Our pocketbooks and war casualties remind us of the quality of life the Republicans have brought us.
We know now that there is a real problem in the Clinton camp if she is quoting Karl Rove. Rove is a Republican and wants the Democrats to send forward their weakest candidate. Senator Obama has been kind in not bringing up things about the Clintons that the Republicans would not think twice about bringing up – they would have a field day with the Clintons.
Karl Rove – don't forget to go testify before they put you in the honeycone (jail).
Wow... I don't think I would have told people that I am basing my actions on a Republican who wants McCain to win the election.
Hillary is a desperately sinking ship clutching a straw!
WOW...There are no words.
Seriously...this is the worst comment she has made since this process started... BTW Obama by 15% in November...mark my words
For the person signed the Truth, What pole are you looking at that has Hillary down by 11 points in Kentucky? All th polls I have seen have her 20 or more points ahead. I guess you are like Hillary, you make up your own facts to try and look good.
I will be writing Hillary's name down in november if Obama is the nominee.
The democratic party has failed over 15,000,000 people, this country will hear our voice.
Hillary Clinton will be the first person to win a state with a write in.
When its over, its over. Please think about the party and not yourself Hillary.
Remember Obama saying that he didn't think Bush could say anything new that would surprise him......
This is how I feel about Hillary after reading that she is now listening and heeding the words of Karl Rove.
Hillary,you poor dear.Of course he would say you have the better chance against McCain.They know at heart that Obama has a better chance against McCain.Man what a trip this election cycle has been.
*BREAKING NEWS*
SEN. HILLARY CLINTON ARGUES BEFORE THE NCAA THAT THE RESULTS FROM THE BCS NAT'L CHAMPIONSHIP SHOULD BE REVERSED AND OHIO STATE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED THE CHAMPS. SHE ARGUED THAT EVEN THOUGH LSU SCORED MORE POINTS, OHIO STATE IS ACTUALLY THE WINNER BECAUSE THEY HAD MORE TOTAL YARDS. A RULING FROM THE NCAA IS EXPECTED NEXT MONTH.
THERE YOU HAVE IT OUT OF HER OWN MOUTH.
CITING CARL ROVE AS HER REASON FOR STAYING IN
THE RACE, NOT ONLY PROVES HILLARY THE REPUBLICAN
WE THOUGHT SHE IS, BUT SUBSTANTIATES HER STANCE
ON THE WAR AND HER LACK OF COMMITMENT TO THE PARTY.
Please pay close attention Hillary supporters!!!!!
She's turning herself into a joke. Why, Hillary, why?
A Roving a Roving a Roving I will go!!
How many of you here voted for Bush?? Both times??? Well, you can thank Karl Rove for that! He was behind getting W into office, and most of you fell for his tactics then. Now look at the mess we are in.
Hey everyone vote for Obama, he hasn't run a state, a county, a city, let alone a business. But, oh yeah, he can take this poor economy and turn it around. Yeah, that is right, change, yeah, that is it, he will just change it. How? Who cares, he will just change it.
Hillary is the ONLY choice people, like her or not, she and Bill could make this country respectable again, but no one is going to give her a chance.
We all just want CHANGE!
People read up, 'cause you'll never hear this from the Clinton News Network:
Peter Paul vs. Clinton; the largest election fraud case in US history. In the courts in CA, being clamped down by the Clinton Machine.
People, get educated about Hillary!!!!!
She used his tactics......might as well rely on his analysis too.
This is sad. I hope she sees the light soon. Wow.
Honestly, how can ANY Hillary supporter, who considers
him or herself a true Democrat, sand beside her after
this remark?
ENOUGH
Mrs. Clinton -
Karl Rove has been counted on by the Republican Party as their master strategist for the past 8 years.
I can see you dimissing the meddlings of Rush Limbaugh's Operation Caos effort to have red meat republicans cross over in Indiana and other states to support you.
But surely if Karl Rove is touting you publicaly as the "stronger candidate" you realize that he's attempting to play you and everyone else (Democrat, Independent, Republican) that is considering voting the GOP out of the White House. You are savvy enough to know that Rove would do his best to spread mis-information to help them run against the weaker candidate.
Hang in through the primaries to keep your supporters engaged but continue to bring this thing to an orderly, civil conclusion so that you and Bill can say with conviction that you are backing Mr. Obama
All of us dissatisfied Democrats are gonna
derail the Obama train
and vote for McCain.
Obama is a lost HOPE. We'll see to it that he's not nominated. Then he and Michelle can go back to Chicago and continue having dinners with Ayers and Farrakahn.
Karl Rove is playing Clinton like a patsy. Of course he would like her to be the nominee because she would be the one easiest to beat. Maybe she should as Ms. Phlame what she thinks of Karl Rove? I heard Joe Lieberman has some good pointers she could use.
The little respect that I had left for Hillary has just gone out the window. Please tell me that a Democratic candidate for President did not just site Karl Rove (enemy to every Democrat) as a reason to stay in the race.
You fool...Karl Rove would have the Democrats tearing each other up from within just to hand the Presidency to the Republicans.
Someone please put her back on her meds.
The longer this Democratic nominating season goes the more Hillary sounds like a Republican, all joking aside. Hopefully someone has Hillary on video citing Karl Rove's analysis!
Oh. My. God. She's lost her frakking mind!
Wait a minute? Clinton is citing Karl Rove's opinion now? Jeez. I feel sorry for her now. I support Obama but I always liked the Clintons. This is just erasing their legacy. What a shame.
Um...Shane, what difference does it make whether she has more electoral points? She has to win the nomination before electoral points even matter, and she is not going to win the nomination. I hope you have a better point than that. Otherwise staying in bed should have been a better option for you.
Why is a democratic candidate putting credence into what Karl Rove says? Who does HRC listen to, anyone who gives her some support. Sad state of affairs when the opposition party is providing the basis for staying in the race.
NOW THAT WE KNOW WHO IS RUNNING HER CAMPAIGN
THINGS MAKE SENSE. PROBLEM WITH HER THINKING IS THAT
CARL ROVE DOES NOT RUN THE DNC.
Why do Obama supporters ignore the whole way the math will work out in the fall with the Electoral college?
Does any of them believe Obama will made any of the blood-red always republican states somehow magically democratic in the fall? That's what's bolstered his campaign by and large due to African Americans voting for him overwhelmingly. But if someone thinks he'll somehow get the bible belt states they're kidding himself. And frankly not many are convinced he'll get Ohio, Pennsylvania, Florida, Michigan etc. That's how you lose an general election.
Why is this so hard for Obama supporters to understand?
She's taking advice from Bush's brain?!?!?!
That's new low.
You know what...??? Karl is right with his comments because he knows the dems will do the opposite of what he says....so go right ahead and put Obama in front of Mc Cain so he can tear him apart. Obama is not ready maybe another time but now....So you know what...??? It's going to be another fours years of a Republican running our country. Come on Dems!!!! Be smart....!!!!!
She has really been smoking on the crack pipe now that shes listening to anything that Karl (the untruth) Rove has to say.
Now that it's clear that Obama will be the nominee, I'm even more worried about Huckabee's remark about someone pointing a gun at Obama. I'm afraid that once the realization sinks in that he might really become President, it becomes a bigger problem.
Oh good grief...she really is desperate, isn't she? Citing what Karl Rove says, lmao!
This makes me sad and worried about the Democratic party.
The comment that MCCain and her is ready to be president
The denouncing Fl and Mi and now a complete reversal
The Ferraro problen
The Mark Penn problem
The Sniper problem
The pregnant woman story
The about of her money and debt to local businesses
Her overall debt
Constantly moving the goal post:
Small states does not count to small states matters
From 2025 to 2210 for delegate
Pledge delegates can change their minds
The popular vote is what matters
Now counting on Karl Rove as reason to continue
This is incredible
Wow.... Clinton is now using KARL ROVE as a reason to stay in?
She really is willing to use any excuse and try anything to win this one.... what comes next... having her buddy Bush (he owes her for IRAQ and NAFTA support, you know... before she was against them) to declare Obama a terrorist and crown her Democrat.
That way we can have 2 candidates vying to carry on the Bush mantra of lies, deceit and Karl Rove tactics.
Don't you think that Karl Rove may have an alterior motive with his analysis? The Republicans drool over a Clinton nomination because there are just too many people that hate the Clinton's. The Republicans want a Clinton nomination!
And why does Karl Rove want Hillary? Come on Hillary supporters...time to explain this one to me. I'm waiting patiently. Looking through the 52 comments so far, I think this is the first time I havent read one from a Hillary supporter.
I had high regards for her. Now she is out of her mind.
is she so stupid that she doesn't realize that republicans like rove WANT her to be in and continue to divide the party??? i'm mean, honestly. is she REALLY that stupid?? if she is, then she should be forced out of the race immediately.
ROVE SAID I'M BETTER!!!! Is she kidding, thanks for the laugh today Hillary I needed it. What's next dinner and a movie with Rush Limbaugh?
Please give the re-count of FL & MI a rest. Remember in February when you thought this nomination was a lock, you agreed to the punishment even signed a document. You are making yourself look pathetic.
Shane – Actually she has NO electorial votes, they have not voted. This is pure speculation. When they do vote she will have 0, since she will not be the nominee and he will have the 370 for the Presidency!
Umm "The Truth" you are really losing your grip on reality aren't you? Ms. clinton is NOT behind by the 11 or so percentage you claim "Won't it be something if Hillary wins Kentucky when the polls say she is behind by eleven or so points" she is leading in Ky sorry to break reality to you.
That said I really do not have a problem with Ms. clinton staying in for the next two weeks. It will be better for her to stay in, the rednecks in KY (NOT all the residents of KY but a large majority) will never vote for a black man, pure and simple, so she will WIN in KY. It is a forgone conclusion and Mr. obama could campaign there until he was as old as Ms. Clinton and it will make little difference in the outcome. So by her staying in the race he will lose to an opponent NOT to someone who is not in the race. It is better to lose to an opponent than to a "usta-run" she is doing him the final favor in this race! I suspect that after tomorrows votes he will be slightly shy of the 2026 needed to win and will not receive enough superdelegates to put him over the limit until two things happen. One the final outcome of the (cheating) MI and FL votes are determined and two the last primaries begin this way he will WIN cleanly and she will say so Wednesday June 4th leaving her supporters with a positive ending and closure and allowing her to support Mr. Obama before the convention. I believe the Dems will be here in Denver supporting Mr. Obama, and I think Ms. clinton will give one he&& of a keynote address!
Karl Rove has a motive for saying that.
Don't be fooled Hillary and get yourself in a trap.
Yeah do you really think Karl Rove is the most reliable source for information. Here is how you use Karl Roves opinion on the democrats: Take whatever he says, and do the opposite. So in turn Clinton is the weaker canidate, no doubt. Obama's strength with independents is a nightmare for Republicans the only hope they have is that Clintons bitter supporters dont see the mislogic of voting for McCain which I doubt their bitterness will continue. Its understandable to be upset but just take some time to cool off and help the democrats and the womens movement become stronger in November.
Karl should be in jail now!
Well, of course she would cite Karl Rove. After all, this is a person who wants Michigan and Florida to count in the Democratic primary, and some of her supporters suggesting that Obama really only sees 48 states in the Union.
Cough! Cough! According to the way Hillary counts the contest, we only have 38 states in the Union. They don't include any caucus voting. There are 12 states that hold only caucuses. That means states such as Iowa, Colorado, and Alaska, states which are actually in play – IF OBAMA IS THE NOMINEE – doesn't exist in her mind.
And that's why I won't vote for her. If I were hiring someone, with the way she's painting the picture, I'd fire her before I'd hire her!
This argument is a case study in desperation. She is definitely in denial.
she needs to see her doctor to give her bi-polar!!
obama 08/12
Ilene actually stated that CNN hates Obama? Jeez, that's about as laughable as CNN's journalistic integrity at this point.
Hilaryland lost bearings when L. Davis, Kiki Mclean, and the likes began listening to Hannities, Gingrichers, and Roves. Simply pathetic!. On the eve of North Carolina and Indiana primaries, Karl Rove predicted that Senator Clinton would carry Indiana by more than 10 points, and Senator Obama would win North Carolina by 4 points. I am lost of words Senator Clinton believes in mr. Rove. That's 40 years backward.
Why can Karl Rove finish colleg?
Karl Rove spent the last 4 years preparing the GOP campaign against Hillary, he wouldn't dare let that work come to nought. Hillary seems too desperate to even realize the GOP prefer her to Obama because they think they know how to beat her.
Hey, superdelegates – could enought of you move over to Obama to give him 2210 without Florida and Michigan? I don't know how much more of this stupidity we can take!
Has no one concidered the fact that Obama is winning these primaries because the typical red states might go blue. The standard swing states will not be the same for this GE. Obama is not a traditional candidate and he will not win using the the traditional red state/ blue state map. Looking at the democratic primary map shows me the voters are trying to pick someone who is not from NY or AZ (or CA, TX etc)I am curious if anyone has looked into Obama winning traditionally red states.
Isn't the fact that the Republicans want her to be the Democratic candidate an indication that she'll be the easiest to defeat? No surprise that's what Rove wants.
Looks like we know who Clinton takes her orders from.....
OBAMA 2008/2012
JE "75,000 in oregon?" They where not all supporters, me and my 6 friends who are Hillary and Nader Supporters just wanted to see what he said, which was nothing (People got to stop driving SUVs and trucks was a funny comment that would only do down in Oregon...), at least we got to see Bruce sing!
Obama will lose the GE because people are raciest, and if only 2% of the Hillary supporters vote for McCane (thats much less then the 38% saying they will now) Obama will lose the GE. A true reach across the isle ticket of McCane/Hillary would be amazing... but that will never happen. Obama is so left its not even funny and Bush is so right... why cant we vote for someone in the middle for once (Hillary, McCane and Nader)
Poor Hillary. No one is even paying her any attention. I really feel bad for her. She wants to be heard so she is backing at anything to get her in the news. That's okay Hill. It's okay to drop out. We don't consider you a failure. Obama '08
JUST WHEN YOU THINK SHE HAS HIT BOTTOM,
SHE SLIMES A FEW FEET FURTHER DOWN.
CARL ROVE CAN RUN HER CAMPAIGN, NOT THE DNC.
BLATENT HIPOCRISY ONCE AGAIN!! She bashes all the pundits who say the exact opposit, and then quotes them when they agree with her.
Phong Nguyen said:
"It is unfortunate for S. Clinton that many people are not ready for a strong woman to be the US President for now!!!"
Actually, I'm perfectly willing to vote for a strong woman. I just haven't seen one in the running yet.
You see, you and others don't want to accept the following fact: People aren't against Clinton because she's a woman. They aren't against ber because she's white.
They are against her because she has a lifelong history of corruption and scandal; she has a campaign that is bankrupt, both financially and morally; because she told outright lies to make herself more popular and then told more outright lies to cover for those lies (sniper fire); she moves her own goalposts on a weekly basis to claim she is "in the lead" despite some benchmarks being the exact opposite of what she claimed to be the benchmark just weeks ago (popular vote); and more important than anything else, she demonstrates, still, a greater interest in her own political career than in the welfare of the Democratic Party and the American people.
Saying that people won't vote for her because she is a woman is irresponsible, oversimplifying, and turning a willful blind eye to the truth of the now-infamous Clinton legacy.
I think she want to see a new ticket
Clinton/Rove 08 what a joke
Hillary –
Did you ever stop to think that the Karl Rove stragegy was a plant to keep the dems divided? Yes, he is just that conniving. Put your ego aside for American. Please, good people of Kentucky end this and show the empress that she has no clothes.
Karl Rove, Karl Rove you got to be kidding me Hilliary. Can't you see he is a republican attact dog. He would want nothing less to see that this nomination process break up the democratic party.
Get out of the race Hilliary because you are starting to really bite the republican bate.
Obama will lose in November, don't kid yourself Obamabots.
Daryl from Seattle: "Yeah and didn't Karl Rove say Bush was the stronger candidate as well??" Bush Won... so he was stronger, which means he was right... again
Time for a new CNN poll ... do you think Hillary Clinton has become mentally / emotionally unstable during this primary?
- Yes
- No
- She was nuts before the primary
I'm surprised everyone's so dismissive of this, whatever you think of Rove's political views he is skilled and knowledgeable in the field of politics. I mean he got Bush elected, obviously he knows what he's doing. And really what he says is just common sense, Hillary does better in the swing states, obama does well in states the Dems will lose anyway; obviously Hillary has a better chance of winning.
That's not to say she should be the nominee, whoever wins the most popular votes should, though even that is hard to determine, when it's murky as to whether Florida or Michigan should be counted in the popular vote.
YOU OBAMA SUPPORTERS ARE SO DEMEANING THAT IS ALL YOUR DOING IS SENDING HILLARY SUPPORTERS TO MACAIN..JUST TO SPITE YOU AND THE WAY YOU HAVE TALKED ABOUT A WOMEN WHO HAS DONE VERY WELL IN THIS ELECTION.
Yup, she's done. She need's to head back to NYC and get some rest.
I'm confused....I thought Clinton was a democrat??? Guess I was wrong.
WOW, since when did Rove become an advisor to the Clinton campaign??? Oh well only two more weeks and this will all be over anyway. I don't think anyone is really looking at this race any longer, McCain and Obama realize who their opponents are. I'm hoping that these past few days of McCain getting his comments onto the front page makes all Democrats realize what's at steak here, we need a Democrat in office we cannot afford a third term for Gorge Bush!
BAD, BAD, BAD, BAD public statement Sen. Clinton
There is already serious questions as to your own loyalty to the Democratic Party and these types of comments DOES NOT win you any brownie POINTS!!!
While at it, I am also becoming more and more distraught with the 'moderation' of these message boards. The 'moderators' seem non-shy about applying their pro-Obama bias, allowing Obama supporters posting single-word entries, personal attacks, insults against Hillary, occasionally even in all-caps, and allowing for very few comments from any other sides. In fact, not once did any of my comments, which include none of the same level of condescension and personal attacks, and certainly no all-caps entries, make it through this biased 'moderation.'
Hillary Clinton is such a confused, calculating woman...and that's what makes her so dangerous.
Citing Karl "Wormtongue" Rove in a stump speech? Shame Hillary.
The Clinton's reputation in the Democratic Party is officially soiled.
Oooops...did I say soiled?
SHE HAS NO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SAYANY THING!!!!!!!!!! DO ANY THING AGAIN SHE HAS NO SHAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gallup Daily: Obama Opens Up 16-Point Lead, Biggest Yet NEW May 19, 2008
Barack Obama now enjoys his largest lead to date over Hillary Clinton in Gallup Poll Daily tracking of Democratic voters’ presidential nomination preferences, 55% to 39%
Obama and Odinga in Kenya
Standing behind a tree
k-i-l-l-i-n-g
First comes the church
filled with the people
then they set fire
to the doors and the steeple.
Wow. Just... Wow.
for those of you who voted for obama will have a rude awakening once mccain gets a hold of him. vote for a stronger candidate, GO HILLARY!!!!
WOW She ahs gone even lower than she did LAST week!! Whats Next?? "Satin worshippers prefer me 5 to one???"
Hey DNC Know THIS!! You let this nut within 100 MILES of the Ticket and we willl not send ONE RED CENT!!! I cannot support this nut and look my kids in the eye while she does EVERYTHING I taught my kids not to do and expect to be rewarded.
LOL i got a good laugh out of this one. LOL. Wow Hillary is great. Her and Huck should start a comedy tour together!!!
In all honesty though, after this charade is over we will welcome her to our corner. She has shown that there are few out there who can match her in determination, resiliency and YES smarts.
Her and President Obama will make a terrific 1, 2 punch, Executive Office and Legislature being led by outstanding talent.
Is this her argument to the super's?
Endorse Clinton because Karl Rove says so…HAHAHA!
She is pathetic!!!
Her desperation has hit an all time high.
What a CLOWN!!!
Rove? She must be off her meds!
Is this the kitchen sink, stove , fridg, and bathrooms too??? I am thinking, it is the comode.....Please FLUSH!!!!
rove? really! hahahahahahahah
he's going to prison... she's going back to chappaqua.... or to a mental institution...
Rove is a reason to stay in the race? Rove?!! The woman has become a total cartoon of the worst in politics.
Rove and Hillary are both right and the Obama campaign is going to find that out sooner or later, preferably sooner! Tomorrow Kentucky will add its name to the growing list of states that have rejected Obama.
Hillary can save it all for the Dems and their supporters so let's get the Superdelegates behind her NOW!!!
President Clinton 2008, 2012!
Hmm so we should have just asked Karl Rove in January then waste millions of dollars in campaign funds and all this time.
Next she will say Bush is for her ... hes at least one of the very few that have less cred than Rove. He's as responsible for our childrens deaths in Iraq as W.
Call Dr. Phill, He is the only one who could treat such kinds of "denial" ... "denial of imminent truth" ... Dr. Phill, please help Hillary!
Please stop. Not worth a comment from me
I've always been for Obama, but even I had always figured that Clinton was smart enough not to listen when Satan, the God of Lies speaks. But I guess I was wrong.
That settles my vote. I want Hillary for President with Dick Cheney continuing as VP and Karl Rove as White House Chief of Staff.
Why is Karl Rove not in prison anyway, especially for the treatment he gave the Governor in Alabama not counting other felonies. He shouldn't be allowed to roam the streets, you see how he is beginning to pollute even the minds of toughie girl Hillary!
Wow, you're citing Karl Rove as your reason to stay in? Why don't you run for the Republican nomination? If you start now, you might still have a chance!!!! Hahaha.
This is all so nuts that I wouldn't be surprised at this point by a independent Clinton/Rove ticket.
Clinton should stay in because satin says so is one thing.
Agreeing with the anti-Christ is another matter all together!
She thinks she can beat McCain and she can't even beat Obama? I guess that's why her financial advisors are trying to bribe the Young Democrats with $1 million dollars. Glad they were smart enough to say no. She is pathetic.
Have my eyes deceived me. Hillary is taking advice from Karl Rove....I never thought I would see the day that a Democrat is taking advice from a future convict.
I propose a million women march on Washington in support of Hillary Clinton. For all of the women out there that support Hillary and oppose the DNC's and the Obama Campaign's behind-the-scenes push to support Obama and block Clinton's nomination, I recommend this action. I and many other women are not going to support him in the general election due to this egregious, non-democratic and arrogant approach for selecting a candidate. The media bias along with the continued slams against Ms. Clinton should have been openly rejected by the DNC and were not. I am with Geraldine Ferro and the rest of the Hillary supporters who plan not to vote or switch sides. Yes, this will not be a united party no matter what the party officials and supporter say.
Hillary will know what to do when the phone rings at 3 in the morning as they say. obama will be wanting to talk to the terrorists and say,
" Oh don't send in the nukes. Its early lets meet for breakfast and talk about it." as we all fry.....Hes, no substance, a real great orator though. Got to give him credit in that area. Lovely speeches. Change America Change. Does America know from why back when all presidents have said that. We need change, America wants change, alittle change. With Obama there won't be any change. Its all talk like they do. However, Hillary will do more than talk. She will get down to business right away. She will not embolden the enemy PERIOD.
Karl Rove says she should stay in? She may get a second opinion... from Rush Limbaugh. He wants her to stay in also. She's the easier one to beat. Pretty soon Bush will be chiming in and telling her the same thing.
Hillary and Bill cannot let go of their Whitehouse dreams. Its sad to see her put herself before the people.
She should bow out gracefully after her win in Kentucky.. where both she and Bill throw their support to Obama, as well it would be a 'victory' speech of sorts for her. Let's be done with these primaries and on to the general election with an overwelming majority for Barack Obama as President and a new politics for the 23rd millenium...
The Republicans love what they have helped do to the Democrats Party............and that is totally "D I V I D E" it. You know unless we screw our heads back on instead of all the bickering and fighting the Republicans will rule the White House for decades to come. With Hillary's supporters not voting for Obama and Obama's supporters not voting for Hillary we will never see the White House; and the division will just grow deeper. I do believe that the division that is being created will be lasting; PRIDE can be so stubborn; but in staying PRIDEFUL we all lose. To both sides I say enjoy watching the Republicans regain power!!!!!! The sad part is that they will get it even with a weak candidate. We all should be celebrating and we are not. And to those that don't think this will go on to the next election think again. Time to switch to an Independant, this party is doomed.
It takes on to know one.
Oh, by the way, she'll be on Rush Limplips show tomorrow cuz he say
shes the best to beat McCain- -oh wait a minute the chaos mode on
Obama now? I get these flip floppers mixed up.Sort of like McShame
New Analysis from George W. Bush sees Clinto Beating McCain by 76 Votes and McCain beats Obama by 16 votes!
How about that?
This is too funny! She is now getting numbers from Karl Rove! My goodness KARL ROVE? This is unbelievable. Talk about losing miserably. She should lose with some pride. Just acknowledge the loss and leave the ring with some dignity.
Obama now leads national polls @ 55 to 39. What math is she looking at?
Did you all see the crazy crowd and supporters that came out for this man yesterday. Portland is one of the most educated states. Smart people can not be easily brainwashed by rush limbaugh and the other idiot that was shut down my Chris Matthews. Get real Hillary.
Oh lord Hillary Carl Rove!!!!! Lets unite, they want us to continue fighting against each other!!!
Wow, that's all I can say is...Wow!!!
Gee Hillary, do you think maybe Rove might want to influence voters into THINKING you are the stronger candidate because you are the one the Republicans WANT to run against? Because they feel they have a better chance against you then they do Obama! Come on Hillary, surely you are smarter then that!
Wow. She's nuts!
And, I am stgill confused by Hillary supporters who indicate they will vote for McCain if Obama gets the Dem. nomination! Are you folks not Democrats!!?? Would you really prefer to cut off your nose just to spite your face?
McCain is not an independent! He is a Bush Republican! He has sold out any "maverick inclinations" in him to pander to the right-wing conservative base of the Republicans. His reversal on the tax cuts, his speech on appointing conservative judges, his denial of not having voted for Bush, etc. all speak to this pandering.
Obama is a black man running for president. He has received Secret Service protection earlier than any other candidate in history. His life, his wife's life and the lives of their two daughters are being threatened every day. Would not only a patriot go through this!?
Don’t Obama and Hillary agree on most major issues!?
Thus, the questions become: Are you more racist than Democrat!?
Are you more racist than pro choice!? Are you more racist than anti-tax cuts for the rich!?
Huh?? She is actually citing Karl Rove's research as her source. You have got to be kidding me.
If all of this information is truly relevant, then the democrats should just abandon their current nomination process (i.e. securing a set number of pleged delegates). And replace it with the Electoral college. That is of course only if it benefits Hillary Clinton.
Hillary wake up! You are citing Rove's analysis as why your staying in the race?????
It's laughable that Hillary would fall for Karl Rove's tricks. Though I don't believe for a second that she believes Rove's analysis. Nice try Hillary.
I think that Clinton citing Rove as support is the most honest thing she's done during this entire campaign. She's played slimeball politics right out of the Rove handbook over the past few months, so why not invokve the man himself to help her (admittedly futile) cause? It's certainly more honest than when she tries to play the anti-elitist blue collar mama.
I can't believe she went there!
Is she trying to make points with the GOP? Maybe she wants to be McCain's running mate!
It's OVER OVER OVER. I guess Clinton will let it go when Obama gets Bill Clinton endorsement. LOL!
Hoooo Boy...!!
Hahahahahahahahaah!
And everything Karl Rove does or says has some hidden meaning behind it. Do we really want his analysis of anything anymore, with all of the corruption he has been infuential in with this administration? I hardly think that Rove should have any say in the Democratic Party; which he clearly would like to see upset by McCain. If history shows us anything, Karl Rove can get even George W Bush nominated. What does that say to anyone!!
How low can she sink? It's sad to watch her. Karl Rove?? I guess she has no dignity left.
Jeanne said, "That's so sad, having to rely on Karl Rove for anything. I would think any self respecting Democrat or Republican would want to get as far a way from that guy as they possibly can. Next she'll be quoting Bush, oh my!"
----------------
I agree 100% Jeanne. However, Hillary already quoted (or channeled) Bush, when she said to the Democratic Congress (regarding her gas tax holiday proposal), "You're either with us or against us."
How pathetic is that? Sounds like her Republican upbringing is rearing it's ugly head after so many years of playing Democrat to try and pursue her agenda.
Hillary has blow-out numbers in the state of Denial.
Good lord woman – enough already!!!
This man gave advise on the Fox Network on how Obama could defeat her.
Hillary, find another reason to stay in the race.
The problem with Karl Rove is the enormous size of his head.
That's because Rove wants McSame to WIN! Rove is only causing chaos to our party. Clinton makes crazy people look sane. This candidate should just stop using Republican tactics!!
And you believe Karl Rove, I taught you were smarter than that.
Hillary has really lost her bearing and her marble. The office of the president is not your inheritance.
Hillary, just go ahead and make your switch to the GOP complete. You have shifted your entire position to try to win white, racist, southern, poor, uneducated, toothless hill people who cling to their guns. You basically are a republican anyways, in all but name. Just get it over with so we don't have to deal with you anymore. And take all your racist supporters with you, we don't need their bitterness.
This is a laughably poor reason.
She gets Rove's endorsement and Barack gets two Alaskan superdelegates...that is FIVE today!!!!!
Billary/Rove – a perfect match. Good God America – enough is enough! Can't we please get past this psychodrama that is the Clinton grip on Democrat politics and move on to a more stable, honorable, truthful, honest, connected, hopeful, promising (did I say truthful) candidate that is Obama!
To even mention that horrible, evil man's name in connection with any reasoning to stay in the race is absolutely deplorable. I love Hillary.
Why has she made so many stupid mistakes during her campaign? If you want to know what a person is going to be like as president, watch how they run their campaign. That's why, with sadness as a woman, but with hope as a human, I am voting for Obama.
UNITE OR IMPLODE!
USE YOUR BRAIN.
it is so sad to me how the obama supporters (who are supposedly so "educated") often ignore the REAL analysis (it's not about Rove – it's about a little something called THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE and who will win it! This analysis was done FOR Rove, not BY Rove) in favor of ridiculous personal attacks and empty rhetoric. I am a democrat, and I am ashamed of my party and at this point feel they deserve to lose in the Fall. This election was handed to them gift wrapped, and they choose to run the unelectable candidate over the electable one.
HMMMM,SOUNDS SUSPICIOUS TO ME. WOULDN'T IT BE CRAZY IF HILLARY JUMPS SHIP TO BECOME MCCAIN'S VEEP . SHE'S DESPERATE ENOUGH AND I DON'T THINK OBAMA WANTS HER ON HIS TICKET. STRANGER THINGS HAVE HAPPENED.
Wow Wow Wow...... Wow....... just Wow.......
This woman is absolutely nuts. She's taking advice from Karl Rove now?
Clinton/Bush '08
I cannot believe that Sen Clinton would use Karl Rove as a reason for staying in the campaign. I am now in the Obama camp.
??????????????
You know, just read next article.
Did she ever think that Rove said that because the Republicans want her in the race, because in fact they feel McCain is more likely to beat her?
Are you really that desperate Hillary? Yeah, I BET Rove wants you in this thing until the convention – so does Limbaugh, O'Reilly, and the rest of the Right-wing, Redneck, Narrow-minded and Bullet-Headed AM-Radio mouthpieces for the GOP.
Heck, they really want Kucinich back in the race so they can taunt him about UFOs! They're hoping Lyndon Larouche will win the Dem nomination! They're still trying to find a way to get ANYBODY but Obama on the ticket, 'cause they know that McSame hasnt got a chance against him.
Puh-leese!
Money can NOT buy people's heart. Elite doesn't need a president, average americans do.
Puppet Obama will never win average american's heart.
Hillary is real gold, she shines forever!
Go Hillary, millions of your supporters stay with you all the way!
Go Hillary...Rove will tear Obama a new one!!! I really can't wait!!
what about todays Gallup poll that suggests "Obama holds a 16-point lead over Sen. Hillary Clinton" ? The clear messege for Hillary from democrats all around the country is that they already started rallying behind IL senator.
who is Carl Rove by the way?
Since I Just came from Church yesterday, I will let this slide!! who listens to Rove? grrrrrrrrrrr... let me stop here,
Karl Roves wants Hillary as the nominee...because he knows Obama is so much more difficult to beat!
If I had millions of corporate and lobbyist dollars, I would move to China and run for Kung Fu leader and vote democrat, at least there my vote may count. In retrospect, I will be crying because Mc Cain's gonna win. Ouch, see we're gonna go republican if the primary vote will not count here in FL.
Karl Rove, Rush Limbaugh, John McCain – all seem to want Hillary to become the Democratic nominee. Wonder why?
PS Hillary: see the next article "Obama opens up biggest lead ever over Clinton". If you'd be the strongest candidate in the general election, why can't you win the primary?
Yes Hillary...but remember Rove would love nothing more you and Obama to "cat fight" each other to the bitter end. He feels you ar both beatable.
Oh yeah, Hillary. Karl Rove, one of the great minds of our time.
Just goes to show you, Hillary will say anything- she will even tell people to listen seriously to Karl Rove- if she thinks it will make you vote for her.
OK Hillary, YOU ARE NOW GRANTING LEGITIMACY TO KARL EFFIN ROVE IN YOUR DESPERATE ATTEMPT AT ASCENSION! Hillary I was really hoping you would exit this program with some kind of dignity but now you are just totally full of bovine excrement!
You know you're losing when....
This gets better every day!
She is showing future woman what not to do if they run for president!
Karl Rove-------– says Hillary can beat Mc Cain but she can't beat Obama?
Go Bam! Every thing Hillary does makes you look better!
Wow Karl Rove..
Are you serious...she just said her reason is Karl Rove??..
I'm sorry but this women is just awful my god...any one who still supports that women is crazy
HILLARY YOU HAVE BECOME SO PATHETIC,YOU WOULD LISTEN TO ANY THING THAT KARL ROVE HAS TO ,SAY THIS MAIN BELONGS IN JAIL. (SHAME ON YOU) YOU HAVE JUST JOIN THE LIST OF LOSERS, BUSH, ROVE, AND NOW YOU.
is clinton waiting hoping that someone will listen to Huckabee's jokes about guns pointed at obama?
Yes, WE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES.
PROBLEMS:
-Obama doesn't care about "us"
-Obama's "UNITED 48 STATES out of 50" or maybe "46 out of 50"–he doesn't think that West Virginia and Kentucky are important for him, so people who live there can get by without him. Forget about Florida and Michigan unless he needs them. Thanks Barack, but you seem to have a BIG problem with math here if you can't figure out how many STATES ALL TOGETHER are in our UNION, how many isolated TERRITORIES WE HAVE WHICH YOU NEED IN NOVEMBER.
-"N-U-M-B-E-R OF D-E-L-E-G-A-T-E-S" is the MOST IMPORTANT FOR YOU. Um, HELLO, ANYBODY HOME? Do we have a corresponding system of 1 delegate per person? I don't think so. So, just so that you know Senator I AM NOT VOTING FOR YOU!!! You can stand on your head, but I AM NOT VOTING FOR YOU!!! You can buy votes of superdelegates, which is very sad, but you can't get my vote even if you were to sell every last piece of your clothes and campaign naked, I am still NOT VOTING FOR YOU!!! Have a safe flight back to Chicago, where you can do politics "YOUR OLD CHICAGO STYLE WAY".
