All these Hillary supporters saying there's no way you'll vote for Obama, HRC was the best thing to ever happen to this country, etc., etc.–

Where were you when Iowa had its caucus? Where were you during the month of February when Obama won eleven states in a row?

I think some of you are so invested in being victims you can't remember just a few months ago when you were lukewarm about Clinton as she was losing state after state. If she's as great as you say she is, she never would've lost.

Sorry Hillary, but I do not endorse Obama. He can not ever endorse his own race. If he did, he would be considered mixed-race and not
African American. I do not feel that any American should be called anything other than an American.

Proud of her. She is keeping her promise to work hard to get a Democrat in the White House. I had doubts for a while, but this Unity tour definitely is restoring my respect for her. It's a tribute to both candidates that they have put aside their own feelings and are now working hard towards one goal. I hope followers of both will learn from their example and do the same. Democrats need to win in November. The Supreme Court is at stake. The Republicans need to go back to the drawing board and relearn what they abandoned over the last 12 years. They became the Evangeical Christian Only, Defecit-Spend, Destroy Constitutional Rights party. Anathema to the American way.

Another avalanche of politcal fu-fu from the Democrats! Responsible working people understand that Republican party principles are fundamentally the best for our country. The Democrats need to wake up and recognize that not EVERYONE can be on welfare, or equivalent government subsidies!

Vote McCain in 2008!

Thank you Hillary. Fellow Obama supporters please consider donating $5 to Hillary to help pay off her debt. If all of us did so, it would be done and over.

It was a fierce campaign. Obama won. Hillary is doing her best to help him win. Let's help a member of the Democratic family in the spirit of "Yes We Can."

We are not bitter–those who refuse to support Obama. We just simply do not believe that Obama will make a good president. McCain is acceptable in terms of his stance on immigration, the Iraq war (if you listen to the full text of his much distorted "100-year stay" statement) and grounded view of life and possibly style of governing. As opposed to the soaring rhetoric and much hyped Obama style of presidency.

The patriotic would never vote for McCain. His war experience means very little. I respect him for having served, definitely, but that has nothing to do with fixing our country. The economy is in dire straits, and McCain has already shown that he doesn't have any clue how to fix it. More tax breaks for corporations? Great, that's a brilliant plan.

Patriotism means that you care greatly about your country. Voting for anyone other than McCain is patriotic.

Hillary did her best and she lost fair and square, maybe next time she will win. Hillary is going to help Obama and unit the Democratic Party, and some of you people are going to vote for McCain. Are you crazy!! Do you want another George Bush to be elected for another 4 years; obviously you don’t care about your country, environment and your children. If you vote for McCain and your children are drafted to an illegal war and come back in body bags you have yourself to blame. When you vote for McCain and you lose your job and become homeless it your own fault!!! Hillary and Obama are trying to unit the Democratic Party and some of you are mad, biter and ignorant and will turn against the Democratic Party and vote Republican. It shows that you don’t care about your country but yourself. It’s a shame that one man is going to try to make the USA a better place and people are very narrow minded and put their own person feeling into the election and will vote for the other party. Some people are just not true Democrats. They stick together not run off to another party. People, please think change and the US will be a better place in the near future if you vote Democrat. Do you really want to see the same old same old the next 4 years, I don’t.

Hello Hillary-I am very excited having you and Obama together–maybe we can finally, with you both working on the policies and issues, we can get this country back to where it belongs. You're both intelligent, driven and have the best interests of the country at heart.
Let's get some things done-good luck on the campaign!!! THe only thing a lot of people have in common now is that we sure don't want what we have now!!!

To all you that say that Hillary was abused and hateful things were said about her by Obama... do you guys have selective memories? If you recall.. it was Clinton who was always being bashed for using the whole "kitchen sink" approach as soon as she fell behind... trying to bash Obama any way she could.

I swear some people have tunnel vision or something.

Angry, disappointed or whatever, Hillary is trying to move forward as
should we. Only prob is that some of you Obamanians continue to
trash her. She's endorsing and willing to say more with grace about him than he likely would her. So best you people change your tone, reason being this. Just when some of us feel that we might...might be
able to support him, then comes your damaging chatter. Let' see what
he does for her now...........think that is what will determine how genuine he is. And, she'll get the money to pay off her debt, don't gloat
too much, the test of leadership stil lies ahead.

they still dislike each other and let's face it, hillary was the better candidate. hillary helped obama get elected to the senate by campaigning and raising money for him, but he never credits her with this.

how long are we going to let the dems milk this war? we already voted them into congress and they have done zero to put this war to an end or do anything else. we have to stop thinking along party lines and blaming the party of the administration for everything we don't like. in order for us to move forward in this country and get things done, we need bipartisan support and we can no longer afford to think and act solely along party lines. we need compromise.

obama hasn't done anything to reach across party lines and all of his policies are in line with the same old democrtatic/liberal policies. i don't think this man can think for himself.

I congratulate Senator Clinton. It takes a very big person to get behind someone else, especially given that she gave it her all during the primary. She is very right. Anybody who voted for her in the primaries has little (her words, I'd probably say nothing) in common with John McCain. It is time to move this country forward and Senator Obama is the candidate to do that.

SO-called Hillary supporters and Puma people, let them vote for whomever they want to vote for. Let them type whatever they want to type in these blogs. In the end, they are nothing but some desparate Republicans trying to stir up some trouble. They know this could be a the year they lose the White House. So let them post. Pay them no attention. All democrats Unite, and lets put America back as the (positive) leader of the world.

Perhaps for "party unity"all the Democratic politicians are supporting
Obama for President, however, that doesn't mean that the American
voters should follow along like lemmings. I strongly supported Sen.
Hillary Clinton because she is the best candidate for whatever party.
The DMC and all the other back-stabbers did not support Hillary and
NOW they want her help, how hypocritical can one be? I for one vote
for a specific candidate with the best experience not a speech giver!

Actually, I am a Clinton supporter that is having a harder time voting for Obama.

Why? I am in manufacturing, and Clinton was for renegotiating NAFTA and the WTO contracts. Now Obama has said NAFTA is a good thing...wow...how many more jobs have to go overseas??? Right now, India supplies foreign labor to the US market by taking the contract, then offering the SAME job to a company employee at 40% less!

In the same week, Senator Obama also backtracked on campaign finance...where before he said it was VERY important to use Public Funds to keep campaigns from overspending! To keep a level playing field.

I have to vote for someone I trust...so now that Obama has breached mine, I will watch and wait.

Hillary supporters who cant see the difference between mcbush and Obama are blind. Like wise if they cant see the similarities between Hillary and Obama they remain blind and need a reason not to vote for Obama. The two platforms are almost identical so how can any sane person vote against any one of these two. When it comes to politics how can you vote for one and not the other.

Why dies Obama want to mewet Hillary's large donors? I thought that he only took small donations. And Obama has asked his large donors to help Hillary. Again, I didn't know Obama had any large donors. Only a million little people who gave $10 a week out of their allowance from home, In reality, half of Obama's money comes from traditional large money donors who bundle packages of checks in hundreds on thousands of dollars. If you listen to Obama's self rightious speech on fund raising, yuou'll never vote for this fraud.

She certainly couldn't manage her campaign money. How much worse would she have been at managing the government's money. Thank God she didn't get the nomination. I hope she and Bill will just go away.
