Is Obama scaird she might win? Last I checked the US was a democracy and the Convention is the place where the delegates cast their vote.

Maybe I'm missing something. Maybe some of the delegates have changed their mind and Obama might be at risk of losing the nomination. This is DEMOCRACY at it's best.

Newsflash – CLINTON LOST!!!!

No, she will not be on the ticket – not for president, VP, or dogcatcher. Get over it.

If there is to be a joint ticket with the two of them, is should be Clinton / Obama and NOT Obama / Clinton.

The White House needs a grownup in there.

I am for Hillary then John mcCain. McCain will do just fine as our president. I hope he picks Mitt Romney but I could support anyone he picks. McCain is a good man and a fine leader. Experience is his middle name.

For the Democrats, I think Obama and Larry Craig the two Idaho winners should team up. By the Way———

Obama's worldview as expressed in Berlin is much closer to the whining, hand wringing critics of Truman, Kennedy and Reagan than it is to the views of these three stalwarts of freedom.

Obama's response to evil in the world is not "We are staying in Berlin, period," "Ich bin ein Berliner" or "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall."

Obama's response is "everybody hold hands and sing Kumbaya, cuz golly gee if the world will only 'act as one,' all our troubles and all the bad guys will go away."

Hillary Clinton ROCKS!

Most of the comments I have seen on here make everyone look like shameful, silly, tantrum-throwing children. Lets be real here– Obama still had more states, more delegates, more PERIOD. If she elects to put her name in as a nominee, she will be committing political suicide. After supporting Obama, she would be the butt of every joke if she in fact decided to continue her campaign– the ultimate flip-flopper as many of which you HRC diehards have grown so used to accusing Obama. I am sure even many of her own followers, at least the ethical ones, would be turned off. Stop hating and be loyal to your party or get out of it.

wy have you not put up my Comments ?i try to tell the truths

Why? Is she getting a head start for the 2012 election? Some people just don't know how to quit gracefully.

Frankly, all the HRC supporters should be glad she doesn't have to go through the general election BS that's going on this year. McCain is running a smear-filled campaign… do you really think she would have been exempt from the mudslinging? If Hillary had been involved in the general campaigning, McCain would have dragged her name through the dirt to hell and back, with just as many lies and slanders as he's throwing at Obama.

Count your blessings, and maybe in four or eight years we can have a respectable election where the best candidate wins on merit, not on the ability to lie with a straight face.

I would like to ask you all to stop bashing Hillary. Every time an article comes out that says someone will do this or someone said that, everyone starts jumping on Hillary as if she is the one who is doing it. She has made her position clear and I respect her. So please stop trashing her every time the media needs to spin a story. How about giving her credit when it was revealed that she would not go after Obama's background during the primary. This may have helped her win, but its obvious that Clinton has more scruples than you give her credit for. VERY TIRED OF THE HILLARY BASHING. Its not called for, and this women deserves our respect.

Even if she gets her hat tossed into the ring, it will have little impact with the overwhelming majority of Obama backers especially if he names a strong veep choice before the convention.

Our 2-party system continues to serve us nothing but more of the same on a toilet-seat platter. Until WE ALL stop whining and vote in a third, fourth, heck, even a fifth-party candidate, we will be dining on crap forever. Peel back the curtains, it's time to clean the smear off of the windows. This is OUR country and we are responsible for whom we elect to office. Stop getting your "opinions" from the boob tube and take back that responsibility yourself. We will quickly find that the best leaders are not qualified for office by his or her corporate funding alone. Maybe we can even elect politicians who actually deliver peaceful interactions with other nations. I don't know anybody that bombs their way out of everyday disagreements, yet practically every president we elect has killing other HUMANS in his blood. Just a few thoughts that come to mind while reading comments from people fighting to keep their blinders firmly in place.

I'VE SAID IT BEFORE AND I'LL GLADLY SAY IT AGAIN.

IF CLINTON CAUSES TROUBLE AT THE CONVENTION AND OBAMA LOSSES THE ELECTION AND WE HAVE E TO ENDURE YET ANOTHER 4 YEARS OF FINANCIAL LOSE, ECONOMIC DISAPPEAR AND HARDSHIP I WILL LOBBY EVERY PERSON I KNOW TO VOTE AGAINST MRS. CLINTON AND MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO SEE TO IT THAT SHE IS NOT ELECTED SENATOR OF NYC AGAIN.

I KNEW SHE WOULD TRY THIS THE MOMENT SHE FLIP/FLOPPED ON SEATING THE DELEGATES FROM MICH AND FLORIDA WHEN ORIGINALLY SHE WAS FINE WITH THEIR EXCLUSION. SHE LIED IN HER INTENT THERE, SHE LIED ABOUT BEING SHOT, SHE LIED EVEN ABOUT WANTING TO BE NY'S SENATOR – SHE ONLY USED THE SENATE SEAT AS A STEPPING STONE TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT.

AND I'M NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT.

What purpose does putting her name in nomination serve – even for her supporters? All I can say to the Hillary supporters is that the rights that HIllary and others fought for were not about one woman – they were about helping millions of women and families in this country to have a fair chance at being full participating citizens.

Hillary quit and supports Obama. She quit because she fell short and she knew in order to make certain that the policies she supported would go forward, it was time to support the nominee.

It's time to park the campaign as Hillary did back in June and campaign now for the policies and values that both Hillary and Barack share. Allow the convention the full use of the precious TV time to explain to all Americans what Democrats believe and why we cannot go forward with a Bush 3rd term.

The race was for delegates. Obama won the majority of pledged delegates. The superdelegates did nothing but rubberstamp the primary results.

You guys need to accept that if there were ZERO super delegates then Obama would still be the leader, even fully counting Florida and Michigan. This is a bogus argument.

Hillary accomplished a lot and I have no problem with a roll call but after that is done the rancor must be over. Any one still holding a grudge is a REPUBLICAN. If you cannot accept the decision of the party and the platform that your support of Senator Clinton would indicate then you are not a Democrat.

It's not to late! Hillary 08

All you Hillary supporters you only support by mouth but not with your money. If all "18 million voters" send a dollar each she will be out of debt

What i can not understand about Puma's is they keep refferimg to 18million voters. if they were so commited to their candidate why cant they EACH contribute a dollar to settle her debt and they will be change left over for clinton and family. by the way how many voters will elligible for voting in Nov and how many of those will be for OB, nobody seems to be taking about the OB voter numbers inculding the new or first timers.

If HRC becomes the reason the Dems loose this presidency i cant wait to see what the Pumas will do when she looses her Senate seat in NY. Who nows maybe she will retire and take a teaching post somehwere in Mississipi. So my dear Puma's get on with the programme because after this all HRC efforts and achievement wont even be worth including in the history books.

She will be remembered as a divider of the party maybe most of you can live with that, because yoll have not achieved anything important in life except maybe the claim that u are americans or so called patriots.

But i dont think the Clintons are that naive as you all are. Most american are not happy with who they are or what they have achived in life and its most ly because of good or bad personnel choices they have taken in life. America has a responsibilty to the world of nations and that is TO LEAD BY EXAMPLE.

BARACK OBAMA IS THE SON OF THE SOIL.

OBAMA….. 08

'Caryl – Connecticut' …do you realize Clinton has been in politics longer than Obama and now just because she's a woman you think she's going to change things?

PUMA= the undead from George Romaro's "Dawn of the Dead"

For a group of supporters that are so angry about the 'sexism' that Hillary endured, they sure do bad-mouth Michelle Obama a lot. Hypocrite much?

Maybe instead of putting her name into nomination, her supporters should show their respect and use their time to pay off her campaign debt. It will give them something to do with their time, which they obviously need, and if they love her so much, isn't this much more likely to impact her future and her life then letting her lose for a second time.

Ugh!! At this point I've lost what little respect I've had for the Clintons. They have proven them selves to be lying, blow-hard sour grapes losers. If Hillary and her nut job of a husband gave two cents about this country instead of there overblown egos the would have gracfuly supported Obama right after the nomination like they promised they would. the way the Hill-billy's ran thier campaign shows they would not have been good for this country. And you can tell alot about a candidate by the way they run thier campaign. So far even McKeatingFive can't do that well either. Obama is the only one to have run his campaign like a well oiled machine. Put the soar losers name on the ballot and win she loses maybe her and her bubba will go away insteadof continuing to urinate on the democratic party and the American public

Hillary, GO AWAY, PLEASE.

The Hillary supporters do realize that 72% of the people that originally voted for her (myself included) have moved on to support Obama and have no interest in her EVER winning the presidency. Frankly, even if she somehow shanghaied the convention and miraculously walked away as the official candidate for fall, I will likely still not vote for her. I have always respected Hillary and thought of her as a role model…. until now. Frankly, these days she and her adamant 'supporters' just seem tacky and sad. It would take a lot at this point to even get me to stomach her in the VP slot. I have just simply lost all respect for her.

I know for a fact I didn't hear one of Obama supporters say that if Hillary is the nominee they will vote for Mccain or stay home. WOW funny how the tides have turned!!!

Then we can finally say GET OVER IT!!! Obama Lost!!!

Vote The way you want vote for the republican and watch our country go down to rock rock bottom. You get what u ask for.

Will Barney Bush's name go into nomination?

Rationale For Super-Delegates
Super-delegates are designed to act as a check on ideologically extreme or inexperienced candidates. The super-delegate system has been called a safety-value.
It has been 30 years since the Democratic Party had a cliffhanger going into the Convention. If there is no clear winner after state primaries and caucuses, then the super-delegates — who are bound only by their consciences — will decide the nominee.
Based on DNC convention history, it is a tradition to put the names of candidates on the ballot so their supporters could vote. Example: Howard Dean himself! Gee what a surprise.
In this case neither Obama or Hillary won the primary election. As a result Hillary’s name SHOULD/MUST on the ballot. Only then can super delegates perform their proper role and vote their conscience. If this is not done then Obama will not be the official nominee
.

Oh my GOD….I can't stand this craziness.

The primary process has been the same for many elections and suddenly the PUMA Clinton people want to change the primary process. I'm sick of the PUMA Clinton people thinking they can change the rules anytime it suits them.

HILLARY CLINTON agreed that Michigan and Florida wouldn't count because MICHIGAN AND FLORIDA BROKE THE RULES. PERIOD….END OF STORY!!!!!!!!!!!!

She just won't give up. Like some tick, you think you pulled it off yet its head is still bitting in and won't let go.

maybe it will give pelosi and company a clue as to why, obama with all his money and huge organization, his superior judgment ect. is having trouble beating a old Washington style politician whose not even suppose to be in this race.the choice was Hillary and democratic infighting with some petty jealousy may well cost the democrats the white house.

I forgot to mention that if she is nominated, she will cause a huge divide in the Democratic Party. Neither Barack Obama or her will have enough votes to beat John McCain. These Hillary Clinton supporters have some big juevos. I would like to do a Jesse Jackson to those knuckleheads. And what's up with all this woman power nonsense. All of these fragile insensibilities are making me nauseas.

IF YOU LOOK AT HOW THE DNC RAN THIS PRIMARY,WITH ALL OF THE CAUCUSING STATES,DISENFRANCHISED STATES,AND CLOSED STATES TO REGISTERED DEM.S ONLY,YOU GET AN IDEA WHERE THE POPULAR VOTERS,BEHIND HILLARY,ARE COMING FROM. THIS WAS A SHAM,AND "NO", WE WON'T ACCEPT A SHAM,UNDER ANY PRETENSE! NOT EVEN UNDER THE UNCONSTITUTIONAL RULES OF A CROOKED DNC. THE SUPER-DELEGATES FAIL EVERYONE!!! WE,THE PEOPLE,WERE SUPPOSE TO BE THEIR LEAD,BUT THEY REFUSED TO FOLLOW,AND ELECTED OBAMA UNDER THE INTENSE PRESSURES TO DO SO,BY THE MEDIA,THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN CAUCUS,AND THE DNC COMMITTEE. WHAT A SHAM IT WAS! NEVER,EVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT,IN MY LIFETIME!

I hope Hillary Clinton and her hubby try to steal this election from Obama. Then, the PUMA's and Republicans will really see war up close and personal. LOL

If she does get the nomination which I HIGHLY DOUBT, it would be nice to see her in the office.
Maybe she can play with some cigars and some local women of her own.
Since we as Americans care more about the drama and gossip than how the world can actually be healed. I’d vote for her just for that aspect and for the fact I am a democrat and I stand by my party Regardless of her stealing the nomination away.

Obama 08

I wish the clintons would just go away – their time has come and gone.

Hillary's supporters are a collection of ill mannered, ignorant prima donnas. Obama won the delegate count fair and square, according to the DNC. The Clintons are egotistical pigs who won't take no for an answer. She is a lying, manipulative sociopath. Be prepared for the riots if she ruins Obama's victory,. The Clintons are lying, backstabbing, manipulative slobs.

BTW, to all you idiot PUMA pigs ( a collection of disgruntled women, who husbands have left them for younger, prettier women–no doubt) She'll be destroyed by Obama's legion of supporters if she tries to come back in 2012. AND–just because she places her name does not guarantee that she'll be the nominee. There are rules, even for the fat pig Clintons.

18million people, remember America population is more than 200million so they think these bunch of fools can change the will of people. 18 million idiots

When Obama loses in November it's going to be labeled as Hillary's fault no matter what she does…so if I were her, I would run on an IND ticket or pursue McCain to be his VP and say to heck with the DNC…they sure didn't care how they treated her. She can't win for losing…no matter what when the Golden Boy doesn't win all the true racists out there and the media will swear that it was Hillary's fault. Must be nice to have so much power

i will be voting for the first time in the U.S and i am appalled by how many of you HRC supporters that are truly ignorant. i am a female but i am voting BO because HRC is fraud. A woman's instinct is to protect at all cost but her instinct is to destroy until she gets her way. disgusting

kendall………….."If Hillary steals the nomination………"

How can she STEAL the nomination when no one has won the nomination at this point???

Obama likes sports. Why he and his supporters are not sportive when it comes to election???? Obama be sportive and Hillary's name be there otherwise you and your supporters are hypocrites!!!!

Vote McCain/Hillary…. the loser ticket.

Clintons-PLEASE, will you ever go away? Who is next? Chelsea?

Well PUMA's I kind of hope they do submit her name and she some how pulls out the nomination. Then all of the Obama supporters can cry, kick our feet and pout, all while voting for John McCain and sending our country into ruins. Sounds like an excellent idea. Whats that you say?
Oh I see, we're being immature and childish. Hey, we learned all the tricks from you.

Something is strange about this campaign year…Something is definently wrong…and Obama even gets more queer as time progresses. I think Obama will do anything to get a vote. Too bad none of us seem to really know him.

Everyone should just back off Hillary & Bill. They aren't the one's saying this and that, it's the media just trying to get ratings. They know as long as they keep bringing up Hillary that people will tune in. They love the drama. Unfortunately, OBAMA is the nominee and Hillary is trying to support him. She is campaigning for him for pete sake!!! The media keeps saying all this about how "is she really trying to help him", "does she really want him to win??" Give it a rest!!!! Of course she wanted to win but due to the bias media coverage and the hag Pelosi…she didn't and know she's being a true Dem and supporting him…so give the poor lady a break!

The NOBAMABOTS seem a tad worried (AND THEY SHOUD BE). Their messiah just hasn't got what it takes to lead this great country! Besides that, they don't want that angry looking wife of his in the white house either.

Gosh, I just love coming home from a hard day's work and settling down to the Political Ticker for a good half hour of guffaws provided by you idiotic Clinton poor losers~I would tell you to "Shaddup Already!" but I so enjoy a good laugh at the end of the day it would be like cutting off my nose in spite of my face~

Obama '08~REAL change we can believe in.

After the latest disclosure about that scumbag Mark Penn, I wouldn't consider her for a second and I would also make her pay her own bills.

Your comment is awaiting moderation.
Jean, CANADA: Mind your own country's business and stay out of ours. If you like Obama so much you can have him

WE ARE SIMPLY SICCCCKKKKKK OF HILLARY!!!!!!!! SHE IS A POOR LOSER AND WOULD NOT WANT HER TO AT ALL BE A PRESIDENT, SHE HAS SHOWN TERRIBLE CHARACTER!!!!..NO ONE COULD EXPRESS MORE ELITISM!!!!

HOW EXCITING CAN A CANDIDATE BE THAT WHILE HE'S ON VACATION THE NEWS HAVE BEEN SLOW INCOMING. AND WHAT DOES THE MEDIA DO? THEY INVOKED HILLARY RIGHT BACK INTO THE NEWS OR ASK OBAMA WHY HE DIDN'T COME BACK TO THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL BECAUSE OF THE RUSSIA AND GEORGIA CONFLIC WHILE THE SITTING PRESIDENT IS ENJOYING THE OLYPICS IN CHINA. IF THAT'S NOT BIAS AND DISPARITY IN TREATMENT I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS.

I watched CNN dig into Obama yesterday for being on vacation while there's a conflict btwn Russia and Georgia. What the commentator forgot to mention was that the sitting President was in China enjoying the Olypic games.

hey biff biffington…..do you know about the chaos that the delegates are planning if her name is NOT called at the convention?????? This would make them happy and provide a more respectful convention. Her supporters just want respect. Something the DNC, media, and BO supporters refused to give her.

S U S P E N D E D

Anyone remember that – AND kept all her EARNED delegates.

So – SADDLE UP!

See you at the convention

Chelsa for Pres in 2024…..

If Clinton doesn't get the nomination and doesn't get the VP slot, you can bet that she will continue to work for the people of the United States to improve our health care system and work through the challenges yet to come. She is an advocate for the people and she will continue to work to make our country better, whether as President, as Senator or some other capacity.

I have no concern if they put Ms. clinont's name out for nomination as she will NOt win no matter how much her supporters wish it. The Democratic party has gotten behind their candidate and the Superdelegates will vote for him. The pledged delegates HAVE to support the delegates they are pledged to (in the first round unless releasede by the candidate) and so Mr. Obama will take the nomination in the first round and Ms. Clinton will be able to say she was doing it for her supporters, which I do not believe. But I reccommend that Mr. Obama remove her from the scheduled speakers if she does leave her name on so she will not have a platform to further smear his name. He is a good person, however, and so will not do that, unfortunately for him.

I will never vote for Hillary in 2012 if she somehow screws this election up for Obama. Not only will I not vote for her, but I will join anti-clinton campaigns as well. Right now though I still love her and think she is great. But now its time to prove to her party (which she supposedly still believes in) that she is a team player…

Btw any woman who votes for mccain deserves the chastity belt he will give you. Luckily I live in California where no matter what we will always have abortions…

If her name is in nomination, or she supports any thing that will be disunifying at the convention, she wil not get my vote in2012. It is an outrage that she is contributing to disruption at the convention!

This story started with the word IF, people dont get shook!!

I love the way the Obama-bots call for party unity and want a republican as VP? Get real you mindless fans, the party is democrat, not repubacat? Who will run for President, God Forbid, if Obama should win the election and serve his term? What if a fanatic eliminated Obama, who do we want as President? The person to take his place is the VP. I cannot believe Obama would pick a republican as VP and expect any kind of party unity in November. His fans are pretty crazy, but I can't believe they could be that stupid. Maybe they are as dumb as I first thought they were. Whomever McCain picks as VP is, without a doubt, a hairs breath away from the Presidency. The party expects Hillary to be so loyal to the party, but Obama can pick a republican as VP, go figure

My the obama gang on this site are very worried – WHY???
ALL the other candidates at all past conventions were on the roll-call.
Is the obama gang afraid that maybe their guy is NOT qualified – and millions of Americans are having second thoughts?????
Oh – and NO – we are not All racists, baby-bomers – or old women, in fact there are millions of Americans – young, old, rich, poor, men, woman, black, white – who will NOT vote for obama – he is NOT qualified to lead our country – this is a FACT.

Why not, the purpose of a convention is to aknowledge the attempt at a race. Coronations should be reserved for royalty.

Obama stole the nomination!!! Obama supporters and Obama were afraid of revote!!! Even now they are afraid!! If BO is so much qualified to be president then why are you afraid!! Don't be cowards!!

The DNC,( Dumb Nuts Committee) best put her name up. She deserves to have her name put forth, and who knows with all the changes he keeps making in his positions, maybe the superdelegates will wake up in time to save this election. Obama is considering a Republican as a running mate, rather then someone who agrees with the DNC platform? I hope the mere thought of a republican as a VP will at the very least give cause for concern to the core democrats who expect us to unite behind the DEMOCRAT? Obama can't even decide if he is a democrat or a republican? Why did he not run as an independent? He will not get my vote, I will write Hillary Clinton on my ballot in November

What's wrong with people there is almost always a roll call why should this convention be different, and in all truth what would probably happen is before the roll call Hillary would release her delegates, but no Obama dosent even want her name on the roll call.

Talking about Hillary the best possible leader for the US released a statement on April 18 warning us about Russia and it's behavior with Georgia and Ukraine saying she was concern about the way Russia was behaving in the region with those countries which is alot better than Obama who a la Bush was calling restraint on all sides to than change his response to that of Mccains. Again proof that Hillary's the one. Obama 's a pretender and is not ready to be president.

this stinks. no good person. no 1 vote!

No one for president!!!!!!!!

Pick someone else!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love the way the Obama-bots call for party unity and want a republican as VP? Get real you mindless fans, the party is democrat, not repubacat? Who will run for President, God Forbid, if Obama should win the election and serve his term? What if a fanatic eliminated Obama, who do we want as President? The person to take his place is the VP.

The party expects Hillary to be so loyal to the party, but Obama can pick a republican as VP, go figure

It would be a waste of OBAMA's time. What would it prove? He beat her before and when he beats her again the PUMA-CLINTONIAN-REPUBLICAN crowd will STILL complain that the nomination was stolen from her.

We will then get the what ifs, the shoulda, coulda excuses.

They call OBAMA arrogant, yet it is they themselves who DEMAND that HRC either be named the official candidate or be given the VP slot.

That's just like the Lakers demanding the Celtics include the in the victory celebration and put their names on the trophy.

And I doubt very very seriously that if her name is placed on role call and she loses fair and square again that the PUMA fanatics will support OBAMA.

So again, what will it gain OBAMA?

Nothing new here, but at least this is a real backgrounder with actual journalistic value. Good story even if it's not good for my guy Obama.

A Vote for McCain is a Vote AGAINST obama & the now corrupt DNC -
and that is the goal.

Obama is NOT qualified to lead our country – Hillary Clinton is the best – AND she has EARNED all her delegates. The 18 Million Hillary Clinton supporters/voters togeter with the millions of GOP's will make sure obama never wins the white house.

I'm for Obama, but I believe it's well within the rules to allow Hillary to be in the nomination process. I say let her in, or there will always be a question about what was going on in the back rooms. Of course, then there's always the question what Hillary is doing behind the scenes….a little research will show there were a number of inconsistencies in her run for the Senate. Obama has the delegates, so I believe that the process will be a rubber stamp of the primary, but let's go through the process to make Hillary's supporters happy.

hey biff biffington…..do you know about the chaos that the delegates are planning if her name is NOT called?????? This would make them happy and provide a more respectful convention. Her supporters just want respect. Something the DNC, media, and BO supporters refused to give her.

What could be better to motivate the base then to see the entire party casting their vote for their chosen candidates Barrack Obama, and African American and Hillary Clinton a Women.

The votes will be tabulated, Obama will have won. Clinton's supporters will get closure because they will be able to say they at least got to cast a ballot.

Hillary will given a final bow, and spend the next couple months working to get Obama elected. Then in 2016, hopefully President Obama will return the favour and help Hillary get elected.

Hillary is a great Democrat and a great American and does not deserve all the hate comming from the Obama supporters. The vote could actually show that Obama has the support of the party in a clear and devisive way.

Bill Clinton for Hillary's Veep!!!

Where is Barack Obama's RESPECT! everyone says oh he needs to respect her. SHe needs to give respect to recieve it. I am so tired of these "so called Democrats trying to bully their way onto Obama's ticket.
If you are going to support McCain then just do it already and shut the hell up about it!
Nobody is giving Obama any respect, but hey keep expecting him to kiss Hillary Clinton's behind. Well I say to Hell with all of you who will not support Obama. Until you start respecting him, to HELL with Hillary and her idiot supporters!

Also, I've read a lot of comments criticizing Clinton for not giving up and continuing in the face of incredible odds. Would you really want a President that gives up easily and doesn't push for her/his beliefs?

Why is this a story. This is purely speculative and does nothing more than stir up controversy. I thought CNN was a news organization, not a tabloid.

When/if Hillary does do all the things above, please inform me. At that time it will become NEWS and needs to be reported. It's almost shameful that CNN releases stories like this at a time when our nation needs to come together.

This constant division not only within the Democratic party, but within the entire country is shameful. Remember, a wise person once said – United we stand, divided we fall.

obama is an Arrogant, Radical FRAUD – he is not qualified to lead our country – I will NOT vote for him – and Millions of Americans feel the same way. The DNC sure made a mistake in picking this guy who will never win the white house. Hillary Clinton is qualified – or McCain is a good 2nd choice – vote for our country – NOT the party.

I am sitting back laughing at this whole thing. The Hillary supporters just don't know that they are ruining her career and she is ruining her career as well. Her name is turning to Mud because she won't put a stop to this. Obama is not afraid of the roll call. You guys are so selfish to have her go through that pain of losing again because of your selfish needs. We don't need another cryfest at the convention. It is a big waste of time and that why the O supporters are exhausted with her. She will lose again and and her career will never be the same. I will be happy not see her in the politcal field anymore.

Even if Clinton puts her name in for the nomination. She still does not have enough delegates to win. If yoo Clinton supporters think that you can win this way, then think again. There are major constituencies that heavily supported Obama you will need to win in November. Blacks, young people, college-educated whites, Independents and centrist/liberal Republicans. You will need those groups to win in November. Taking the nomination that way will alienate Blacks and most will stay home. Young people do not normally vote in high numbers and they will not be enthusiastic about supporting Hillary Clinton. Go ahead and try it. Watch what happens. You will be SORRY you tried. There will be a big push then for Obama to run as an Independent. If during the nomination, the Democratic nomination is stolen away from Obama, your party will see to exist.

Go through your "catharsis" and then back Obama 100%. If HRC is the reason for a Dem loss in Nov. then she can expect to never win another election period. (FYI – I was a HRC supporter at the start of the process and now support our nominee Obama. I will never forgive a McSame win if caused by HRC supporters – NEVER! )

it better

Why are we still talking about this, god the Clintons need to let this go I can’t believe we are still debating this Hillary lost get over it and unite this is crazy….Hillary ran a ugly campaign, it was very nasty towards Senator Obama and they gave McShame all his talking points!!!let’s not forget!!!! Enough already the Clintons should fall in line and unite and stop trying to force their way onto his ticket.

Ha Ha Ha!!!

To Obama Supporters

Hillary or Mccain?

WHY WON'T CNN POST ANY OF MY BLOGS""

Absolutley Hillary's name should be there. She deserves it just as much as Obama, probably more. If she is not on the ticket Obama
dosen't have a prayer. Obama supporters need to suck it up weather they like Clinton or not. If they want their boy to win, Clinton needs to be VP. Remember she has 18 million votes in her pocket. Obama is only ahead of McCain by a few points, and with the way he prancing around like he is on National Rock Star tour. Obama needs Clinton,
Clinton does not need Obama.

For everybody who thinks that Hillary Clinton conceded the nomination, go back and re-read the news article that gave you this impression. Clinton suspended her campaign. She didn't concede anything. She is still a feasible candidate for the nomination.

I hope not. I mean, what if she were then to win? How doe she explain that she was for Obama but she's now the nominee? After all those 18 million votes in the primaries – for OBAMA – and all the states he won, how could she be the nominee?
Look, puma folks, there was a lot of chaos by a ig pill-popping celebrity who asked his goof ball followers to go into the dem primaries and vote for Senator Clinton. That's a fact.

Some of them did, and that's a fact as well.

So, whether it's 17 million or 18 million who voted for Clinton, the facts are the nomination has been in the past, and is now, decided by delegates. That's it, nothing else. In that regard Senator Obama won the nomination and now it's on to fight for your positions against McCain.

If you so choose, he can stop the fight against McCain (on your behalf) to fight with you on why you should stand next to him in the fight for your positions
judges – judges NOT like Alito, Roberts, Scalia and Thomas whereas McCain wants more judges like that
economic policies – tax policies are a lot better fro EVERYONE under $250,000 than McCain
foreign policy – getting out of Iraq as quickly as possible; and not immediately starting another war in Iran as McCain sings bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb bomb Iran
healthcare – Wants to get to a more universal plan, much like Clinton (and in fact would probably ask her to run the operation for getting this done) vs. McCain who will allow the insurers to keep denying our claims while making profits on top of profits
energy – wants a comprehensive plan where McCain will ask for more donations (and get them AGAIN) from the oil companies to champion their positions

I should keep on but I think you get the point. Obama is fighting for your positions. If you keep fighting him in this way, you stand to lose all of your positions.
I guess you can smile though, knowing your candidate wasn't the winner and then you kept the person who your candidate wanted to win, and asked you to support, from winning also.

I just want to ask: why do all of the Clinton supporters feel as if Obama owes her something? I keep hearing about how Clinton supporters either won't vote in November or vote for McCain, and that the only way Obama can win is if he picks her as his VP. So let's say that through some miracle she gets the nomination…can a Clinton supporter REALISTICALLY explain to me how she wins the general election with MILLIONS of angered and resentful Obama supporters?

If there's one thing I've learned over the last 24 hours (after reading The Atlantic's article about her campaign and the supporting documents) it's that there's only one person to blame for the campaign's failure…and it's not Obama, Dean or the DNC…it's Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton herself.

Hillary's name SHOULD be included in the nomination process.

Obama still does not have enough regular votes to be nominated.

Not putting Hillary's name in the nomination process would be a SHAM to the democratic process and Howard Dean knows it.

But of course Howard Dean has already made a sham of the process.

In every other democracy on the planet her name would be on a ballot at convention, a secret ballot. 18 million Americans voted for her. To not have her nome on a ballot, when neither candidate has enough pledged delegates to win is not democracy. It's a DNC appointment.

hillary clinton is finished as ever being the president of the united states. if she thinks she can step in now and take the crown from obama then she is a fool. if she had all those supporters that she claims to have backing her on this ,why havn't these idiots paid off her debt from the race. she was a fool to keep running after she lost and i nor anyone i know will ever give her a dime to pay her rediculous amount of debt. you hillary fans can't seem to understand that there are more of us obama people out here and none of us WILL EVER vote for this evil witch. her raign will never happen in this life time so either vote obama or McCain but drop the love of hillary ignorance. it makes you all look dumb.i am sick of hearing the dribbling.

They should have gotten Hillary to play Harvey Dent in "Dark Knight".

I think they should put her name in nomination. That way when she fails to accumulate a majority of delegate votes, and Obama gets a majority of the votes, the winner of the nomination will be certain and unchallengeable.

Of course, this won't stop the Petulant PUMA neo-Republicans from whining and crying, but the sad and simple fact is that they were never Democrats to begin with.

I feel the best candidate was run off the road by our own Democrappic, Party. No one is perfect well Obama is by the bloggs and msg boards. The second comming by some of the meanest cowards on a keyboard, but so be it I say let Obama, make it on his own talk is cheap action well lets be blunt he has no record to crow about no matter whom ever says lets give him a try. You will see he is all talk neither substance or truthfull………….:-)

Ann frantti August 12th, 2008 2:56 pm ET
IF Hillary Clinton is not the democratic nominee..I will vote for John McCain..
Obama is, simply, not prepared for President
————————————————————–
…and how is Hillary prepared to be President? Through her instrumental role in bringing about the Good Friday Agreement, or voting for a war that has cost the lives of over 4000 US soldiers and a half million Iraqi civilians?

…..Next in line, Please! Hillary’s Bitter Bigoted Bakery now serving customer number 2!

Being an Independent is the key…..giving these parties too much power is that problem now days

The Nightingale Sings in Berkley Square August 12th, 2008 3:10 pm ET

Hey she won the mid west and the east coast and the west coast and the southern coast. What more could the DNC want?

Give me a break.

i support Hillary or John McCain

By all means. She should and you never know. There is always a first!

What do you Hillary morons not get???? She LOST through the ELECTED process???? CNN why are you instigating these bloggers??!!!

SHE LOST…BEAT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA 08, 12

If it does, she can kiss her political career bye-bye. She clearly wants it to be up there, but she doesn't want to make it look like she's putting up a fight to the Obama Campaign. If Hillary has her name put into nomination, the Democrats can kiss the White House goodbye.

I think it can be done in a way that unites the party, it lets her delegates cast their ballots, and allows the Obama people to cast theres. In the end Hillary has endorsed Obama.

All this stuff about her staff wanting to attack Obama for not being American enough has nothing to do with Hillary. She could have done it but she did not. Which is why is bugs me when I read these blogs and see people talking like it is Hillary doing thse things.

The only person talking about the primary is that idiot Penn and the media. Hillary is doing her part and being loyal to the party like she has for her entire career.

Can we not show our unity today, let her name be voted on, let her voters cast their ballot for her and then untie fully behind Senator Obama, having finished the primary in a fair democratic manner.

I still like Hillary for Veep.

Howard Dean, Nancy Pelosi, and Donna Brazille, decided last year that they were going to be the ones that put the first black president into office. Never mind that man is the most unqualified and most flawed candidate the party has ever put forward. The party is fractured now beyond repair thanks to them, Hillary won the popular vote and had they not disenfranchised Florida and Michigan she would have had the required delegates.

Obama will not and should not win. His hubris and outrageous dsiplay of ego recently abroad should be a huge wakeup call to everyone. Why did he paint over the flag on the tail of his plane and replace it with his cultish logo?

Everything about and connected with the Clintons has shown a total focus on them and a completely irresponsible divisiveness. The Clintons have to get over themselves and the best way to start that to happen is for people to get over them and to stop feeding their egos.

Obama will not let it happen. He would be afraid with all of his changing positions and weak on the economy, foreign policy etc. that he would not get the nomination. Frankly, he does not deserve it.

kG, where have you been? Obama already have enough delegates, that's why he is the nominee. What is wrong with the people? If the desire to see a female president is going to cause voters to lose their minds, I don't know if that's a good idea. The woman lost a long time ago. Say if there are 10 delegates and one candidate wins 6, the other candidate can never get ahead. Reading some of the comments regarding this matter, I thought 10 would be an easy number to divide.

Wow, for the sake of unity, PLease put Hillary's name into nomination. THIS IS NOT A CROWNING CEREMONY!!! BE FAIR!!!

Hillary didn’t lose the primary CNN
The race is not over
Hillary 08 or Mc Cain 08

I am a registered Independent who left the Republican Party when Bush got elected. I can tell you that I intend to vote for Obama unless he brings a CLINTON into the mix. I have had enough of CLINTONS and BUSH's and I think the country has also,

The reason people can't stop talking about the Clinton's is because of their major mess up while they were in the White House before. Go read your history. You must a have a computer look it up there and see the mess for yourself.

haven't we already been down the road and back with HRC. Good grief. Get over it, move on, get a life.
THis is truly tiresome.

Reading some of these posts only goes to show me just how fanatical & off base some of these clinton supporters are. If you are so biased against Sen Obama simply because she was beaten (with her attempting to dictate the rules of the game) then I have to wonder what your REAL motivation is. It certainly isnt your love for Senator Clinton or by no means would you even consider John McCain as an alternate choice.

It just doesn't make sense what some of you PUMA BRATS are saying. "If Hillary is not on the ticket you will vote for McCain, because Obama is not ready to be president." If she's on the ticket how does that change whether or not if he's ready. Morans!!!!!!!!!!!!
She should be supporting the Nominee. If he loses, which he won't., Hillary would not get support in 2012 from a majority of the Dem. Party, because her and Bill will be blamed for the Dems. losing the electionin 2008. Chew on that PUMA.

SHE BETTER NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

can a hillary fan please explain how she was "robbed" of the nomination? she lost fair and square!!!!!

Visibly endorsed? The liar hillary has done nothing to support the winner Obama, nor has her philandering selfish husband, nor have they done anything to help unite the 0party she still thinks she should be handed the nomination no matter what the MAJORITY of the voters, the MAJORITY of the states, the MAJORITY of the pledged delegates, the MAJORITY of the "super" delegates have said. She doesn't not belong on his ticket and she does not belong at the convention except as a speaker and then a visitor, and also ran like the philanderer Edwards! If Obama loses this election we can count on at least 8 years more of Republican rule because those of us who support the right candidate at the right time (Obama) will not forget the crybabies that supports the liar hillary in the next election and we will ENSURE she gets the nomination and then gets CRUSHED in the election! The clintons and their lies will NEVER again despoil our WhiteHouse!

Hillary's name must be put in nomination process at the convention. This is NOT about Hillary, Obama or the Democratic Party anymore, this is about WE THE PEOPLE.

When voice of the people are no longer heard or listened to, DEMOCRACY IS DEAD.

Those who doesn't want Hillary's name to be in the nomination ballot, YOU are at your OWN IGNORANCE is killing your own democractic process, SHAME ON YOU PEOPLE!

I don't think Hillary's name or any other name should go up for nomination except the person that has already won. This is just some thing to keep ignorant people upset and full of false hope about Hillary Clinton. If she was really fit to be the democratic nominee, she would make a public speech letting her supporters know how long she was really out of the race so they can shut up. Instead, she is just gloryfiying on the sympathy of others who believe the nomination was stolen from her.

When Hillary Clinton did not get the spread she needed in PA, she was officially out of the race because there was not enough delegates left for her to take the lead. Furthermore, when Sen. Obama won over half the delegates at stake, it was indeed over for Sen. Clinton. She went after the popluar vote, in which she still did not win because the results of invalid elections were tallied, only to create confusion among voters who did not understand the election process.

This is a dog and hay deal: If I can't be president, I would rather no other democrat be president. She can not accept defeat or reality. That is not strength, that is insanity. You only fight on when there is true hope. If you in the fourth quarter of a football game with only one minute left, if you are down thirty points, guess what—-no matter how much faith you have or how much others want you to win—you have lost the game.

Good luck President Obama

I am soooooooooooooooooooooo sick of the Clintons!
I will never vote for any of them for anything. Barack Obama
can not enjoy his win because of this evil trio. They want him to
lose so badly, but he win.

I think it might be a smart move for the DNC to put her name on. If they do, and Obama wins the nomination–hands down–perhaps her supporters will begin to back off, rally behind the nominee, and feel a sense of closure. If not, I think there will always be a fragment of her supporters who cry foul. If her name is on–fair and square–and Obama gets the party's nomination it should be over. The thing is–this is the most historic primary in history–people really feel strongly about the results and they want to feel closure and they want to believe things were done fairly.

ok, let's get this straight, obama's folks dont trust the clintons who were in the whitehouse for 8 years, how many credentials does one have to have to be a vp LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Observer : "And just how is this going to help anything? I don't get it. Obama sewed up the nomination a couple of months ago and Hillary conceded. I guess the next time I lose a card game, I'm going to angrily ask for a re-do. And again. and again, and again, until I get the results I want."

————————-

Fact is, he didn't win it. Neither candidate won enough delegates – the supers can change at any time. The DNC will influence the supers to do their bidding, which is to support Obama. Hillary supported Obama but she could have taken the fight all the way to the convention, and I wish she would have.

All of this is garbage. Know what we do with garbage in our household. We discard it and forget it.

MD August 12th, 2008 2:42 pm ET

Who is Clinton…??

Your mama!

I backed Hillary until Super Tuesday when she lost. She should have stepped aside at that time. Her ego wasted an enormous amount of money and divided the democratic party. It's time to step aside Hillary and let Obama and his crew rebuild the democratic party to a win! If Hillary keeps pushing her political career will be over and she will be blamed for anything not happening. Hillary, work on health care–we need it. Go Obama!!

This is ridiculous. Hillary has already endorsed Obama. She should take herself off the list for the nomination. Can she possibly be any more divisive? This is why I could never vote for her. She says she's for the party and for unity… and now this? Unbelievable.

YES YES and YES.

Hillary's name will be should be has to be there!!!

Lovely how any opinion other than "Hail King Obama!", even within the left, is decried by the Obama Defense Force. All the winds are blowing your way. What are you people so jumpy about? Possibly the fact that you're trying to sneak an inexperienced Marxist past the electorate?

Wow people. Read and read and read some more. Right now e-mails from her campaign are being openly discussed all over the TV and internet and every one is virtually in agreement that because of the inability of HRC to step in and make a hard core decision, her campaign went down the toilet. That was the only place it could go because she had already thrown the kitchen sink at Senator Obama. Now if she could not make the tough decisions in her campaign or manage her campaign finances what on GODS green earth makes you think she can begin to point us in a unified direction to get our country out of the mess we are in. I say point because even if elected, neither she nor Senator Obama would be able to fix this mess alone. It is going to take the combined efforts and sacrifices of all Americans to do what we as a nation must do to get our wagon train rolling again.

This is absolutely ridiculous! Her supporters are going out of their way to ruin any chances Obama has to win. GET OVER IT! SHE LOST! MOVE ON!

OBAMA 08!

I thought American people knew their history and religious moral values. Well you can certainly tell they DON"T

I think some of you Clinton nutters should run for president. I mean, someone whose opinion is inherently superior to all others' AND can see the future should make a great leader.

If Hillary puts her name in at the DNC then she can not be trusted and will further push her self away from the party. She has too much PRIDE to support Obama on all levels.

You people in here are as racist as can be making judgments about Obama being untrustworthy, him not sharing the American values, etc etc etc. That's the most ridiculed, skewed and robotic bull&hit I have ever heard in the history of "diversity" working as an EEO Counselor in the red-state of Texas. You all just don't get it. You all would rather have a 'white', fragile, inexperienced and most untruthful veteran who is surely and clearly unfit to serve as president to fix the problems we have today. I am no racist myself, but you often wonder why you see the statistics of Blacks voting for Obama simply because people, like yourselves, make it obvious and use the excuse to say that Obama is naive and inexperienced.

Obama is the generation of change we should've gotten during the peak of this century. Now we are facing another four years of turmoil under Republican leadership with McSame being the candidate. I will say again, if McCain wins this election, we will be the next Soviet Union of the 1990's.

If the Dems want to win in Nov they should nominate Hillary. Obama has no experience and is a losser in Nov!!!! Him and is marxist followers should wake up or the Republicans will win the White House again.

HILLARY 08 !!!!

This is ridiculous. It may be completely legal for Hillary to put her name on the ballot at the convention — but it's completely unethical and it stinks. Okay, so she didn't withdraw, she "suspended" her campaign. Super. But she has since also publicly, repeatedly, endorsed Obama. She even got him asking HIS supporters to help pay down HER campaign debt!

I don't know who's pushing this issue more from the Clinton camp: Hillary, Bill, or their disgruntled, noisy supporters. But to whoever it is, I say this: GIVE IT UP. Hillary fought a tough campaign, honourably in most respects. But she lost. The voters in Florida and Michigan knew what the rules were, and chose to violate them. Hillary needs to get her supporters in line and end this charade.

If she allows her name to be on the ballot at the convention, then I, for one, will have lost all respect for her. Talk about "politics as usual" — it would be backstabbing at its worst. To say nothing of its impact on the notion of party unity.

The DNC,( Dumb Nuts Committee) best put her name up. She deserves to have her name put forth, and who knows with all the changes he keeps making in his positions, maybe the superdelegates will wake up in time to save this election. Obama is considering a Republican as a running mate, rather then someone who agrees with the DNC platform? I hope the mere thought of a republican as a VP will at the very least give cause for concern to the core democrats who expect us to unite behind the DEMOCRAT? Obama can't even decide if he is a democrat or a republican? Why did he not run as an independent? He will not get my vote, I will write Hillary Clinton on my ballot in November…..

I love all these lib comments "anyone but the Clintons". It's your fault we got them in the first place, no you're stuck with 'em.

The men before her, Hart and Kennedy etc. had their name put in nomination so of course her name should be put in nomination. These men did not get the votes that Hillary received – more than anyone in the history of the Democratic Party. If the Democratic Party does not do this – it is saying that men are better than women. So they do not deserve our vote. But the sad thing is alot of Hillary Super Delegates lost their position and Obama put his people in their place. So it sounds like to me it is still not playing the game fair and square. That is why alot of people will not be voting for him.

Put the names of Clinton, Richardson, Edwards and all the candidates that ran up. They have just as much "entitlement" as Hillary.

Obama supporters are afraid. They were afraid even for MI and FL re-vote. They are not democrats.

No Hillary No Vote

Clinton is and will always be the stronger candidate. Obama was selected by Howard Dean and the DNC so tell where is the democracy there? All you Obama supporters are trying to tell us Clinton supporters to give up on her to support someone like him. No way and he will never get my vote. When I see someone of substance, then I will vote but my person of substance is HILLARY CLINTON.

If her name is not on the ballot at the convention, then I will not be voting for Obama in November. I will write her name and spoil my ballot before I vote for him.

GO HILLARY GO!!!!!!! NO OBAMA NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Clinton needs to do the right thing for the democratic party , for the country and for her political career and insist that her name NOT be placed in for nomination. By Clinton letting her name appear it will further divide the democratic party and McCain will be laughing all the way to the Oval Office.

There is so much more Clinton could do to deal with the PUMA groups out there but she hasn't. Clinton's actions or lack of action will not be forgotten by voters if she were to re-run in the future.

What is wrong with you people, what is it that you cannot understand?

You are blaming and attacking your parties nominee as if he set the rules of the party, or has any control over party policy.

The man won the contest. He did not make the rules of the contest. He did not break the rules of the contest. What is not clear about this?

Your candidate lost the election. She did not win. She did not receive the most delegates to secure a win, those are the rules.

It is sad for you. It is made even more sad that you cannot stand by your party.

One person does not run the show, he is a figurehead, a mouthpiece that is surrounded by advisers, AND HIS PARTY.

And you have the nerve to call him self-centered.

Peace.

So I guess this means that Hillary is no longer being considered for VP (well at least not on the Democratic ticket)…

HILLARY 2008!

Hillary Clinton supporter please try real hard to face reality. Tough job for you, I know. But you need to educate yourself on the Demorcratic process..Hillary is counting on your ignorance of the system , just to keep her campaign going long enought to pay off her 20 million dollar debt. If your 18 million strong.; Each of you should send her a dollar so she can shut up and America can get on with this election.
She has NOT earned the right to have her name placed in nomination
There is something called electoral votes. Figure it out. The second place candidate does not demand a policy change . They get on board or go home. Wake up, people.

And… why is it OK for Obama to steal the nomination and not Hillary? For those of you who criticize us for voting McCain in November are the same ones saying they will not vote for Hillary in 2012? We are to grow up? You are no different than we are…you just got your way which makes you more rational? HA! Threaten us with a no-vote for Hillary in 2012 – we are still taking down your messiah!

PUMA

Sure, why not? She won her votes without having to rely on the DNC to hijack delegates from Michigan.

Hillary, you are the candidate to beat. To hell with Obo.

Some people need to stop trying to punk Obama into picking this woman. If it were the other way around would you want Obama on the ticket? No. Some people need to stop being so jeolous and bitter. This is his decision and I hope he picks (and I trust he will) a wise decision.

Obama 2008-2012! He is going to change the world and bring USA back to its lost glory.

ALSO, the delegates our not going to go against their constiuents and vote against the way they voted. This is just another ploy by the Clinton's too remain relevant. Just stop it already. You lost.

I wonder, Clinton supporters, what would happen if her name is put in for nomination, the delegates and super delegates vote, and Obama wins the nomination.

What would be the excuse then? Would that satisfy you?

You're all so convinced that Hillary Clinton is the one and only true leader who can bring this country out of the darkness.

She lost the nomination. Period. What's the problem?

Why is this a story. This is purely speculative and does nothing more than stir up controversy. I thought CNN was a news organization, not a tabloid.

When/if Hillary does do all the things above, please inform me at that time. At that time it will become

YES! Her name should appear! That is the only way to save the DNC's credibility after the way they stole the popular vote and will of all Democrats. Otherwise, why have a convention?

Hillary!

Well "party unity" just flew out the window…..

Oh God.. please.
Anything but the Clintons!

Obama '08

Considering that Mr. Obama actually has little chance of winning the general election, it is definitely a good idea. Delegates still have a chance to choose a viable candidate and put a Democrat in the White House. If Mr. Obama is chosen, Mr. McCain will easily win.

Why a woman will choose to vote for McCain is beyond my understanding. He's policies are the most anti-women ever.

You hate Obama so much that you are willing to sacrifice the life of many more American young men and women to a war in Iraq, with Iran or who know what other country the blood/oil thirsty republicans want to attack.

The Democratic Party has had the bad luck of having the first viable black candidate running in the same year as the first viable female candidate. This has truly made a mess of things since the choices would be easy if they were running in different years. To make a truly impartial decision regarding who should be the Democratic nominee in the general election, pretend that Clinton is a 60 year old white male and pretend that Obama is a 47 year old white male. Compare their credentials, experience and their platforms without race or sex being a factor. Who should be the nominee now?

All of you that want controll should fix perfect in a coo coo nest. It is pitiful that adults are acting like children. If Obama don't do this or that for Hillary than I will vote Dem.

Hillary is supporting Obama and has encourage you to do the same.

Hillary will not do this because she knows who the VP is and its her. She"s The one and has been since the secret meeting.

The best answer is for the Democratic party and Obama to have the good sense to offer Hillary the VP nomination, which will bring new enthusiasm for the Democratic ticket from 18 million voters now up in the air. The never-ending sexism exhibited by the Democratic leadership, the media (Cafferty is one of the worst offenders), and much of the general public (see above misogynous comments) is hurting Obama's chances as much as the evident racism of the Republicans and some Democrats. I don't think Obama is a sexist, and I hope he's enough of a pragmatist and an idealist to see the benefits for him in the election and for the country and his and our daughters in having the Dream Ticket of an African-American and an indubitably qualified woman after all.

Does any thinking person really care about this solipsistic feminist?

HILLARY! HILLARY! HILLARY!

And I'm a republican to boot but I will feel a heck of a lot more comfortable if she were to WIn the WH in November than an inexperience marxist such as Obama. Can you see that wimp going toe to toe with the Russians or Iranians? I can't.

well think of this way Obamabots, Clinton could lose gracifully at the convention or you could muzzle her there and she could back Mccain. Clinton calling a floor vote at the convention would probally unite the convention as well as cause more tvs to be glued to the convention further allowing a larger audience to hear the ideas of your beloved… so pretty much lets see this play out..

The Democratic Party has had the bad luck of having the first viable black candidate running in the same year as the first viable female candidate. This has truly made a mess of things since the choices would be easy if they were running in different years. To make a truly impartial decision regarding who should be the Democratic nominee in the general election, pretend that Clinton is a 60 year old white male and pretend that Obama is a 47 year old white male. Compare their credentials, experience and their platforms without race or sex being a factor. Who should be the nominee now?

Fight it at the convention, Hillary!

Obama should be having a cake walk with McCain, yet he's not even outside the margin of error for leading in major polls.

Watch out Democrats, Pelosi will do anything in her power to take down the Clintons. She basically forced superdelegates to get behind Obama early on behind closed doors. She's been bad news for the party since she became speaker of the house.

We could have had a phenomenal candidate in Hillary for 8 years followed up by Obama for 8 more years after Hillary had Pelosi and her cronies not stepped up and meddled things up behind the scenes. Now, the Dems are barely holding a lead in a national election when their shouldn't even be a contest. The party leaders are senseless…

I heard some pundit say that one of the reasons Obama rented Mile High Stadium was to drown out the Hillary protesters.

If enough supporters for Hillary show up than Obama's Thursday could be Hillary's Thursday.

Wouldn't it be lovely….

Hillary 08/McCain 08 PUMA

It should be her and any woman who is not with her should be ashamed after all that we have went thru, scratching and clawing our way to simple respect. We deserve better for all the hard work we do and half of our gender is willing to throw it all away for dreams and great speeches. Surly this half has been snowed before . Wake Up!!

DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHAT THEME FIDEL CASTRO RAN ON IN 1958 OR 59……….ANYBODY….THINK….THINK….THINK……

HERE IT IS……

CHANGE!

Hey she won the mid west and the east coast and the west coast and the southern coast. What more could the DNC want?

Give me a break.

i support Hillary or John McCain

And just how is this going to help anything? I don't get it. Obama sewed up the nomination a couple of months ago and Hillary conceded. I guess the next time I lose a card game, I'm going to angrily ask for a re-do. And again. and again, and again, until I get the results I want.

Am I in Groundhog Day? Why is this back? Hillary and team-it's over. Sorry but support Obama and democratic policies or stay home and risk having McCain drag women's rights back twenty years. Geez.

HILLARY! HILLARY! HILLARY!

And I'm a republican to boot! but if a Dem were to win the WH in November, at least I will feel a little bit more comfortable with her in the Oval office than an inexperience Marxist such as Obama and his wife.

It was the Media,The DNC, and the Super-Delegates that messed things up in this,so called Primary. All Hillary is guilty of is garnering the largest number of votes in the history of Primary.

Well this is one way to screw up on winning the WH for a Dem, you HRC people must be so shallow to lose this election with the hopes of HRC running again in 2012? What makes you so sure she will win then? your gonna get Mclame in the WH to appoint more repug justices to the Supreme Court, so when the court over turns Roe v Wade, its the blood on your hands!

Yet all that matters…All that has ever mattered…to every living, breathing, human being on the face of God’s green earth…is…(everyone together now)

…What Does Hillary Want?

The next battle is for the voters of New York to take away Hillary’s senate seat.

Hillary has a right to put her name in nomination. The Choice for nomination to be President is up to the convention, not obama.

I think more people might want to hear Clinton so we can hear about issues…. Reality has fallen even more to the wayside since Obama went up against McCain. McCain is dragging him down.

If Hillary's not on the ticket, I'm writing her in.
Elmer Fudd would be better than Obama Hussain.
That's all folks.

For you young people you had best study history and you will see what trickled down means also see for yourself what the Clintons did while in the White House. Study, study study and prove to yourself. You young people have lots of sense use it.

if we are looking for real change then lets practice our founding roots – let freedom of speech ring and let us pick who we want HRC!

I don't trust the Clintons. You don't know what they will do when they speak at the convention. Obama, should watch his back. Obama, be careful of the Clintons.

dear Lord, please no

Archie Bunker, George Orwell, Hillary Clinton – all have the same possibility for the VP slot.

What a Messsssssssssssssssss.

NO. Speaking as an Independent who has voted Republican most of her life, and NOW SUPPORTS SEN. OBAMA. I can tell you that I know many people who will be upset if Clinton supporters pull something.

IF ……….. Clinton wants to have a chance ever again, she better reign in her Hillary-hysterics because, many are watching to see if Clinton is……..gracious or the mean-witch we think she really is.

Careful, if you cost Sen. Obama the presidency, you will be a pariah.

You can bet Obama will pick Hillary because he does not want to lose and she is his only winning ticket he cannot go it alone.

she got the most votes. isn't that how it's supposed to work.

Why in the world can't we stop talking about the Clintons????

I never knew that the U.S supports the system of entitlement within your party. This is what I hear from the Hillary supporters it wasn't fair, she deserve the nomination. If you like this system than I suggest you move to Canada where entitlement within the party is always practice and where the people don't get to vote for the leader of their party. Please stop whinning it makes Canucks like me want to say Get Over It! At least you get to choose. I like the saying I read earlier it should be stamp on shirts and sold it goes like this I'm over the Hill and voting for Obama. Please post this CNN

This is why she cant be vp

All I can say is I’m buying extra popcorn, putting my feet up, and will watch what promises to be a real zoo in Denver at the end of August.

As someone who’s seen my share of political campaigns, if this divisiveness in the Democratic party continues thru the convention, we can all start practicing saying “President McCain”. And that will be the end of Barack Obama AND Hillary Clinton’s hopes to ever be President.

Go for it Hillary. I'd love to see a major floor fight. I bet if they made it a secret ballot, she'd win too.

If Obama must put Hillary on the ticket to win he is not the true winner people. Get it, people do not want him for President just like people do not want Hillary. No Mcain either. Vote Independent and be done with it. Well, we will always have to deal with the economy situation as this mess has trickled down from the Clinton years. Don't forget Hillary really created the mess with healthcare when they were in office before. That is just one thing. TOOOOOOOOOOOOO many others to mention.

If this will shut up the PUMAS once and for all then let it happen. She is not going to win or be VICPOTUS. The problem is the PUMAS will not accept this either. They are supporting HRC because of her gender that is all. So for the rest of us let us vote OBAMA and DEMOCRATS and let the PUMAS do what they will, we can still win without them. Because HRC has said she supports OBAMA and the PUMAS don't seem to care about what HRC wants. It could MINNEY MOUSE just as long as it is a female for these people.

At this point i'm having a clinton/puma/crybaby overload. Even if her name was placed in nomination and she picks up the delegates who were supporting her, she's not going to get the nomination. She wont win b/c all of B. Obama's supporters wouldn't vote for her. So in essense they just want to complain. Even if her name is placed in nomination they won't be satisfied, they will still complain, they will still whine. Somebody please hand them a tissue. I'm sorry I have had enough of this nonsense from these 'vote bullies'

The fact that this is even a consideration says that HRC is not fully behind Barack. She needs to quash this talk, and the talk of the convention's "18 Million Walk" or whatever they're calling it. She needs to get out there and say "Stop it! It's over!" This division is all on her.

NO!!!

If Obama's supporters are so confident that Obama is "The One", why not put Hillary on the ticket?

Screw the Clintons and her rabid supporters. They have shown they do not know how to manage an organization, financially or by judgment. They continue to rely on 'hacks' as their political directors and have little policy content to the record. They are not just shameful, they need to be relegated to the annals of American political history. With Obama's election, that will become a reality and then Hillary can be free to divorce the wretch they call an ex American President.

I have hope that Hillary will do the right thing at the convention and her actions will bring the unity this country needs in its politics and its leaders. Wehave to do this together–another 4 years of Republican rule will continue to destroy this once proud nation.

It would be nice to be able to have dissent and work through it but the hate that I see from the Republicans on here (even the fake Hillary supporters) makes it very difficult to accept any of the stuff they say.

for those bad mouthing 'baby boomers'….FYI, Obama is a boomer too….1946 to 1964….Obama was born in 1961.

HRC had earned her place in history, without the Clintons Obama wouldn't be where he's at, afterall the Clintons put him in but the 18 million real democrats can take him out remember this all you delegates that betrayed the real democratic party. see you idiots in November because you just gave it all up to the Republicans.

WE DONT NEED HER.

OBAMA…08

Do you people REALLY think Hillary is behind this news? Under the Penn articles everyone was saying Hillary said this and Hillary said that… she has not said anything…

The people who voted for her want to see her name on the ballet because we still feel cheated and hurt by the Obama camp for the mean and negative campaign he and his group have run.

Want to payback the DNC? Vote McCain!

I don't see the big deal in getting her name nominated at the convention. She lost, and she knows it. It's just a way to recognize the millions of people who voted for her. After all is said and done, the majority of her supporters will vote for Obama. No Big Deal!

Why would Hillary refuse to allow her name on the Ballot when she is just as upset like the rest of us that Rock Star Obama or McWar could be the leader of this country?

Obama doesn't even have a health care plan!!!

dont fall for her… she is up to something with this charade

PLEASE!! PUMAs – GIVE IT UP!!!

She lost….get over it!!! This whole idea of hijacking the convention makes the SLA look like Girl Scouts!!

LET IT GO!!! Otherwise your "18,000,000 strong" will be seen for exactly what they are:

A bunch of bitter, spoiled, crybaby brats who are sulking because they didn't get their own way!!!

OBAMA 2008

IF Hillary Clinton is not the democratic nominee..I will vote for John McCain..
Obama is, simply, not prepared for President

Go Hillary. Either way, I'm writing you in.

PUMA = Bitter Hillary Supporters.

"SHE unlike him, has earned to have her name placed in nomination."

She hasn't earned jack. Unfortunately, fate knows.

Plus, we already marked down her supporters to vote for McCain or not! LOL!!!

Democrazy…go ahead but all I'm saying is that she's not getting the nomination.

I think if BO wants to consider a Republican for VP, then I think JM should consider a Democratic, (Hillary)!!!!!

Please CNN I know it is hard but you need to finally let her go….

You go girl. Don't let that lying two faced opponent get the best of you. I will gladly write your name in and if you can take the nomination I shall vote for you. Then again…I don't think there are people that would be very happy to see you win…Pelosi and Reid come to mine. I say win the POTUS and then fire them both….LOL.

Hillary should skip the convention altogether and either run as an independent or get on the ticket with McCain. Millions of us moderate Democrats are going to vote for McCain anyway or stay at home. At least this would give us someone to vote FOR.

If Hillary steals the nomination I voting Independent from now on, Democrats need topick a stance and stand for something,

I hope her name does not….with all the things being finally revealed about how they attacked Obama….hell no! They are hoping they put it for nomination and by some miracle she gets more votes than Obama….but if the DNC is stupid enough to give her the nomination then I WILL VOTE FOR MCCAIN! And I hope he is not even considering her the VP….and if he loses the election….I will not vote for her if she runs again….I have lost all respect for the Clintons.

Why not?

God I hope not!

If Hillary places her name in nomination, which I'm sure she will do, most of the delegates that pledged her will vote for Obama. She will get some votes but be trounced at the convention because the Dems don't want this farce to continue. They forced her to leave the primaries and they will force her out of the nomination by not voting for her. She will continue on as Senator and maybe eventually replace Pelosi as speaker if she runs for congress next time. The Clintons will survive, only not in the White House.

…attempts to discredit her attempt to change the Health Care system, she focused on America when although a personal issue, almost 1/2 of the 2 Houses of Congress tried to chase her husband out of office despite the peace, prosperity and respect from the International community and in the face of the 'polarization' drums from those who want INEXPERIENCE and CHANGE from MR. CHANGE..err..Obama..focused on the CONSTITUIONAL PROCESS and what was important for America.. WoW, someone who stands by her man, by her country and still wants to be a valued part of an extraordinary CHANGE in making a historical positive difference in Washington

Then we might as well put John Edwards on the ballot! The Hillary cult followers might as well be republicans and so should she.

Maybe she is!!! Doh! If she can't handle her own campaign, how can she run a country. Honestly, she's dillusional. It's like WACO all over again. Possibly, Jim Jones! Where's that Kool Aid?

OBAMA '08

Hillary should be allowed to have her name on the ballot. Niether canidate won the needed delagtes, & that's the purpose of the conventions.

If the Clintons and their supporters mess this up for the Dems this year, I will never vote for a Clinton again. I'm sure a lot of us will REMEMBER this in 2016.

OBAMA/BIDEN, 2008!

So sad that she doesn't know when to give up. And how can anyone trust her word if she winds up in nomination? Slimey.

Hillary in still the one who garnered the last number of votes in a Primary,in history.She and we deserve to be considered in this Convention,and let the Delegates,seal their fate,for the next four years.

I liked it better when she was MIA.

I think its very funny that Clinton says Edwards hidden scandal by the media caused her to lose when the media is still hiding her issues with PAUL V Clinton !!!!!

Angus: Ignorance is bliss.

I hope not. Please can the Democratic Party show unity. This ploy will only serve to divide the party more than it is already divided.

ch: I suggest you check with Chuck Todd to confirm that Hillary DID NOT get more votes than Obama, even if you count MI and FL. You people need to get therapy so you can move on.

i'm ready for hillary to go away for a moment. it is no longer her time to shine.. if the democratic nomination was meant for her it would have been hers. all the best to you mr and mrs. clinton and chelsea… but it is obama turn to shine.. come again

This is getting sick. If Hillary steals this nomination from Obama then I say to hell with the Democratic party and this so-called democratic society. Hillary's supporter are sore losers and cannot stand the fact that a man of color has bested her.

Caryl in Connecticut – please turn your enthusiasm toward a democratic victory. (and get your facts straight)

It had better …. if Democrats still believe in democracy.

SHE unlike him, has earned to have her name placed in nomination.

This was the closest race in Democratic History!

Part of the "RULES" are Hillary R. Clinton's name be on the FIRST Roll Call vote for the Democratic Party.

What IS the Problem here? Afraid Obama may not get the votes????

After all, Obama supporters love to tout Rules Are Rules. Oh that's right, only when it benefits Obama….

The Democratic Party NEEDS a major! overhaul!. Forget about 2008 (Barack's gonna come out short, i.e no 270 EV for him come Nov.) or 2012 (The Electoral College's gonna change because of the 2010 Census). So start thinking about 2016. You got 8 yrs. You've! been! warned!.

I knew when Clinton didn't surrender her delgates and the way they have been avoiding campaigning for Barack that they would try this.. if she does do this you can say hello to MCCain as your president. NEVER, EVER TRUST A CLINTON!
Good luck with that… McCain will run what is left of America into the ground.

Hillary Clinton to be nominated from the Floor; By ALL MEANS!!!

Time to WAKE UP Democrats, Nominate they Wiil Come !

A VOTE for HILLARY is a VOTE for WOMEN EVERYWHERE !

YES WE CAN

VOTE HILLARY '08

The new Atlantic article makes it perfectly clear who is to blame for Senator Clinton losing the nomination — Sen. Clinton. She was hesitant and indecisive — and she couldn't manage her money. Now she expects Sen. Obama to come to the rescue even while she allows her supporters (and her adulterous husband) to undermine Obama's campaign. Another example of both Clintons being vile and self-absorbed. Please, please make them go away.

It's time for Hillary to go away. Bill too for that matter. A couple of sore losers who are doing nothing but keeping the party divided. This is proof that she is not a leader and is simply seeking power. A leader would step aside and even help the ACTUAL democratic nomination so we can end this reign of Republican terror. Hillary is the worst kind of polician.

She'd have made a great Republican.

I Would Love To See A Woman President. . . . Just Not This Woman. . . Ever! I Will Vote Republican Before I Vote For Hillary! So Will 18 Million Others! Hillary Will Never Be President. . . Never! She Lost In Every Catagory . . . Every One! Including The One That Mattered Most . . . Delegates!

Well if she should happen to steal this from obama LOOKS LIKE I WONT BE VOTING THIS YEAR, I WOULD NEVER VOTE MCCAIN, but after what she did to obama in the primaries, and how childish she was I CANT VOTE FOR HER EITHER!!!!!!!!!!!!

SO SAD I FEEL SORRY FOR ALL OF HRC VOTERS.

If he tanks in Nov.?? If he tanks in Nov., it will be Hilliary's fault and we will all suffer for another 4 yrs.!!! Is that what you want?? To put another imbecile in the WH?? That's just stupidity at it's finest!!! The spirit of the world is at stake here. All eyes are on us and how we come out of this next election. We would have 4 more years of nothing done, as well as 2-3 (?4) new supreme court justices. Bottom line, this country is done if he doesn't win. Figure it out people!

i would be the happiest person if hillary became the nominee

I Obama can pick a republican vp why is McCain should be picking Hillary?They have work hard together in the past and would make an amazing team.

I JUST HOPE SHE DOES

Oh yes,
This is a very logical move on Hillary's part (sarcasm).

Newsflash to all of the Clinton supporters backing this foolishness:
- If our party is not unified at the Convention, then neither Obama or Hillary will have a chance to take back the Whitehouse.

Why not just hand over the Presidency to McCain on a silver platter.

What ever unifies the party. If Sen. Clintons name is submitted for RESPECT…..Amen. If it is submitted to be divisive then ABSOLUTELY NOT. If her supporters truely care about this good women…they need to be giving her checks rather than pouts and B!!xxng. She has ONLY to the beginning of the Convention to get contributions that can be applied to her debt….after that she is stuck for millions of dollars !!! I can not believe that we Obama supporters are contributing and the disgruntled(???) PUMA's and other supporters aren't sending her money!!! With supporters like that who needs enemies ????

Do you wanna pay more taxes??

I chose Hillary then the Dem's Saturday changed that so then I said "Well, I will have to study this guy now." That's what I did, I read both books although Audicity is hard to finish, its alot of fluff, I read his policies but it's hard to keep up with those since they change like the wind over my beach. I listen to his speeches but I dont last long as the fillers are numerous and all that is heard is talk but he is not saying anything. On top of all this the nasty blogs are the icing on the cake. It feels good to vote with a solid decision based on all the above. I highly recommend it!

Absolutely not. Obama won the nomination fair and square. If you look at Florida and Michigan by the numbers, you can see it plainly. Not to mention, Obama was most people's second choice if they couldn't have voted for Edwards so enough with the ifs and buts – DEMOCRATS UNITE BEHIND OUR NOMINEE – BARACK OBAMA!

Only if she is stupid enough to allow it. She will seriously ruin the party and her and Bill will never be welcome in Washington again. There are consequences in doing this and she knows it.

For the sake of the Democratic party, she better throw all her support to Obama and mean it.

If Hillary has plans to run in 2012, which she does, then behaving as arrogantly as she is now, won't get her the votes she'll be looking for 4 years from now. Just the opposite will happen as is being evidenced now with former supporters coming out to trash her and her hopes of achieving the cracker jack crown at her imaginary coronation. Hillary is not so popular as she thought she was, her giant ego is leading her by the nose that she has turned up at us all. Talk about unAmerican and out of touch, those words describe Hillary to the core. This is a woman who disagrees with the American process of electing the next President of the Unites Sates (unless it's her) and tried every dirty trick in the book to drag her sorry soul to the White House.

I believe her name SHOULD be placed in nomination. If for no other reason to exhibit that she won more delegates than any other woman in US history. People seem to forget that Hillary Clinton ran a historic campaign that should be recognized by the Democratic Party and the American people.

I think Hillary's strategy is absolutely brilliant! Pretend to support the preferred nominee until he helps you pay yourself back the millions that you overspent and then cleanly "stab him in the back" at the convention. Rumor has it Bill is already personally interviewing possible White House interns.

women cant be president.they dont think quickly enough.

Who is Clinton…??

Awesome, people are voting for dead people and fictional characters. In that case, if I were a delegate, I'd submit Darth Vader for nominee.

It should be put to a vote or what is the purpose of the convention…. Crown Obama? Cannot stand his ego…. If elected I believe his ego will be our downfall.

Hillary Clinton will put the final nail in the coffin of the "Clinton era" if she choses this route. It may hold onto a few disgruntled Clinton supporters and may cause Obama to have more difficulty winning but will definitely make a run for president an impossiblity for her.

Hillary as the candidate was the Republican dream. The unenthusiastic GOP would quickly become very enthusiatic with Hillary anywhere near the ticket.

Hillary will never be re-elected in NY. Her career is over. The Clintons just do know know how to lose. If they continue on this path the only legacy they will have is being sore losers! They have no sense of shame.

Can I just say that I love the "YES WE CAN" chant when it applies to Hillary?

I refuse to respond to these mean-spirited Hillary supporters who will vote for the Republican anyway just because they are mad. With McCain, there will 4 more years of hell and they will be the first to complain about it.

she's still trying to steal the nomination.

I hope not , she has to much anger, and resentment

bull

Howard Dean's name stayed on the nomination ballot at the convention after he lost the primaries! Why NOT Hillary's???!!! There were a few others that did that too in past party conventions, too. AND if Obama is sure to clinch the nomination, what harm would there be in Hillary's keeping her name in anyway?

Since the party won't officially select its candidate until the convention, let HRC put her name in.

Let the process follow its course. Have a delegate vote at the convention and settle it once and for all.

I honestly don't understand why the super delegates even made their choices public prior to the convention.

BE NICE TO HILLARY…SHE STILL HOLDS HER SUPPORTS IN THE PALM OF HER HANDS

There was never a primary race that was sooo close.

In fact, more people voted for Hillary Clinton than Obama. (Yes, those were REAl voters that went to REAL polls in FL and MI and cast REAL ballots. And those votes were certified by the Board of Elections in both states)

Hillary, even if it's in a losing effort, you have the ability to save this nation. Have your name on the ballot, destroy this Obama pending disaster!

My family like Obama ,but if no HRC we are go for McCain.

Will all you clinton cry-babies stop whinning. YOU LOST, LIVE WITH IT!!

Hillary Is The Most Polarizing Figure In Politics! This Is Why She Will Never Be President! Nothing Brings Out The Republicans Like She Does! She Is Poison For The Ticket Plain And Simple! I Hope She Does Place Her Name In Nomination, Then It Will Show That More People Want Obama Than Her Once And For All!

If you are gonna go Left, go Left all the way.

Obama/Clinton 08 – - -Ensuring a GOP majority in 2012 and Beyond!!!

Further proof that she cares nothing for us, and everything for Hillary…even letting this rumor fly, without making an attempt to stop it, speaks volumes. I used to respect and defend this woman. No more.

Let Hillary Clinton place her name in nomination. What is Obama so afraid of? I voted for Clinton in the primary and I want my voice heard at the convention. If Obama silences my voice but not letting Hillary be nominated, then why did I even bother to go to the polls and vote? You can bet I won't be bothered to vote for Obama if Hillary's name isn't placed in nomination.

I am so tired of him oppressing other people's votes like he wanted to do with Michigan and Florida!!!

If you really want a democratic in the white house this time – put HIllary's name in the nomination and vote for her – otherwise this will be another republican year folks.

This really has become the nightmare that never ends.

Go HIllary……… her name should be the one on the ballot, if it wasn't for the bias of the media and the big players in Washington, she would ahve wrapped this up a long time ago….

Since when Clintons care about being "ethical", Debby?

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES
YES HILLARY '0-8 ! YES HILLARY '08 ! YES HILLARY '08 !
YES HILLARY '08 ! YES HILLARY '08 ! YES HILLARY '08 !

WOMAN POWER WOMAN POWER

Since Hillary has gotten so many VOTES its only right to let the power of the majority SPEAK – Let their voices be heard.
Enough with the press' ( CNN ) vote. Let's make HISTORY.
The males have HAD THEIR CHANCE to CHANGE the way politics are run –
NOW it's TIME FOR WOMEN TO RUN THINGS THE RIGHT WAY-
THE ONLY WAY !
VOTE HILLARY '08

It's time for Clinton to decide if she wants to still be a Democrat or if she will run as an independent and really outrightly destroy the Democratic Party's chances of winning the White House.

It has to be put in nomination. Hillary is our only hope. Obama is an inexperienced, flip-flopping, far-left-wing, empty suit.

If Obama remains the candidate, I will be voting Republican for the first time in my life.

I knew it. Hillary is a closet Republican. Operation CHAOS is still in full affect.

Forget McCain. Obama's biggest challenge will be overcoming all of the "in-party" fighting on the Democratic side.

I hope so like this Obama supporters can have respect for a true leader!

Hillary should be the bigger person here and refuse to have her name put on the ballot. She will be remembered in four years, should she choose to run again, as having done the right thing for the Party and for getting Obama into the White House. Thten she can run against him and win.

I'd like to know why the media hasn't reported that since Obama promised to give the full votes to MI and FL, Obama's lead in pledged delegates has dwindled to just 49 !!!!!

In all honesty, I know she either won't put her name into nomination/nominated. My parents and I will for the first time vote for the Republican. It's a shame.

This is your thread, Puma Pac. Knock yourselves out. Hopefully literally.

OBAMA 08

Isn't that what the convention is for? To vote on the candidates? And since neither won the primaries without the SG's isn't that the most democratic way and what the convention was designed for?

Besides, Hillary is the real winner.

Why should this matter to the Obama Camp? Obama already acts likes he's president. What is unbeatable Messiah affraid? I can't can't stand this ego maniac.

Go Hillary !!!!!!

The democrats should have never wronged you!! The party turned against you and I hope you show them. The Clintons have done a lot of good and the public turned on them for their fake prophet.

HRC is out of date. Her and her politics have, like the way of the GOP, gone into the dustbin. Sure, there are some bitter, racist, baby-boomers still stuck in the old-world mentality and controlled by fear, but they no longer matter.

Bye Bye baby-boomers. You did enough damage to this nation. Please retire, go to sleep. We will pay your social security, but we need to clean up the mess of America your failed generation created.

it should NOT go into nomination. PERIOD. It will only serve to open the door for chaos, however momentary. And that is dangerous to a Democratic victory in November.

AND THAT SHOULD BE THE 'ONLY' GOAL.

Cliton supporters need to suck it up, give it up!
Enuff…. Support the party!

Why are you people so hostile….

Do you really want McSame to win????????

Had Bill Clinton and his co-president Hillary given Russia, a struggling democracy in chaos after the collapse of USSR, the help they needed, there wouldn't be the Russian invasion to Georgia today. They are responsible for Putin's rise to power in 1999. Why would you want Bill to make more open or secret trips to Russia or Ukraine now?

Obama will lose if he chooses Hillary/Bill for his VP.

That depends on BO and Nancy Pelosi, both of who have made it abundantly clear "let them eat cake……"

Her name should go on. Until somebody has captured enough delegates for the nomination, it should be a contest.

I don't understand, how is this supposed to help unify the Democrat party…….??

The Democrats, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, as usual.

Sure hope not we are trying to get over Edwards situation with his mistress which of course is no one's business but if Hillary is in again the can of worms will be back. We had enough of that when they were in office before.

Rodham Democrats!!!! I love the Clintons!! They're realistic, practical, and progressive!

No way! DNC will not allow the golder boy to mis his chance. Remember Obama is the one so down on your knees before him.

YES WE CAN, Hillary. It's perfectly legal to have your name placed in the nomination!!! GO GIRL!!!! We are behind you 100%!

Shameful…just Shameful…

I hope not. After she showed her support for Obama I don't think it would be ethical at this point. If he tanks in Nov. she can always come back in 4 years.
