I think he will lose. The party will be sorry one day soon that they shoved him down our throats.

I don't know and I suspect that none of the above do either. That surely doesn't stop so many people from thinking they do or making something up.

I'm voting for Obama because I am a liberal democrat and the election is about policy not personality. But in my heart I still know that Senator Clinton would have been the more outstanding nominee and president.

Let's try and see Obama and Hillary as a "failed relationship."

Most of us have had relationships that failed and we were mad as hell with the other person but after some time we came to realize IT'S OVER and it is time to move on i.e., (Trump and Ivana, Brad and Jen) the list goes on. They got through it and now are civil with each other. Having said that-I feel Hillary knew exactly what she was giving the republicans when she said the nasty things she did but it's time to move on. I am no Clinton fan but as a Christian, I am willing to forgive her. WE ALL make mistakes and we have ALL said things we were later ashamed of. The future of my two sons is more important to me than anything in this world and I am NOT going to give McWar the power to hurt or kill them. Obama supporters I am as mad as you are about what transpired during the primaries (many have seen my blogs) but let's try to see this as a "failed relationship" and try to MOVE ON. Something good will eventually come out of all this. It always does. After all, if you think about it we got what we wanted and the Clinton supporters didn't. Shouldn't they be somewhat upset? Let's not flame the fires by posting nasty remarks. I hope many of the Clinton supporters will come to realize Hillary will still be working for you and she WILL have a top notch position in Obama's cabinet (Obama supporters WE can demand that-not that I think we will have to). She will still be there for you just not in the senate. I'm sure Obama will give her every consideration. WE don't know what they have already discussed. He understands your anger but just like you, he didn't like being threatened. Do you?

Starting today, I am not going to post anything negative about the Clinton's because it is just TIME TO MOVE ON. WE all need each other NOW and I don't want to wake up Nov. 5th trying to find another country to live. Please let's give it a try. I'll go first.

Thank you.

For those of you who complain about CNN (and I have been among you), a good place to watch convention events is C-Span. No commentary at all. Gives you a chance to make your own judgments before listening to the talking heads. Would also recommend that you go to the other stations, so that you will really get different viewpoints.

Stop insulting Hillary by refusing to support Barack Obama.
The issues that Hillary Clinton has worked so tirelessly for–expanded access to healthcare, a woman's right to choose, the restoration of America's standing in the world–have been just as tirelessly opposed by John McCain and the GOP. If you refuse to support Obama in November you are standing in opposition to Hillary and thwarting her lifetime of hard work.
What's more, you will irreversibly damage her entire future. At BEST, Hillary will be seen as powerless and unable exercise leadership in regard to her supporters. At WORST, she will be seen as conniving to sabotage her own party at the most crucial political moment in a generation. Either way, her career will be over.
Could you live with that?

Senator Clinton will undoubtedly give a great speech. She will let her supporters know that she has, and it is now time for them, to rally around the Democratic Presidential Nominee. And to do anything other than support Barack Obama would go against the interest of the party they have been selected or elected represent.

Best wishes to the Senator from New York; in what will be a most historic speech.

What will she say??????
How can anyone ask that?

Hillary will do and say ……graciously….. whatever it takes to help Obama and his supporters forget that he limped across the finish line to get the nomination with the help of some superdelegates.

In my opinion, she will always be the best candidate.

The first day of the convention was well done. The message was what it was planned to be and what everybody perceived.

Now we can all be overly critical and tear the best laid plans to pieces, and we can all also offer supportive, diplomatic suggestions.

What I do not understand is, Why was Democratic Strategist, James Carville even in the picture since he was so critical. And I couldn't believe Anderson was right there with him. What the heck were they thinking or not.

Why would a Democratic Strategist openly talk the way he did, if he is a Democratic Party Supporter? Maybe he and Anderson will be all praise when they see Hillary tonight.

If we're lucky, she'll say goodbye…….

I remain convinced that Sen. Hillary's support to Sen. Obama is not out of her good will rather than her loyalty to her dream to become president and the party whose dignity and principles she feels committed to safeguard. In her strong determination to become America's first female president, accepting to be Obama's VP now would delay the fulfillment of her dream which she without doubt intends to pursue again in 4 years. Therefore supporting Obama now and urging her supporters to do the same is as wise and smart a move that could work in her favor if Obama wins this presidential election. But should Obama lose due to the rebellion of her supporters, she may as well kiss her presidential bid in the futur goobye as well, because Obama supporters will sure return them the same favor. Obama is under fire for not picking Hillary as VP. Who knows if he did not make her the offer and she refused out of pride and/or political reason. People need to stop making false critics and accusations. These politicians are one solid indivisible family. Aren't we, the voters, fighting each others for no reason?

doesnt matter what she says. i gave her money, went to see her and told all my family about her and drove everyone to the polls to vote for her in the primary. we were votong for her more than her policies ( may or may not have been wise to do). anyway, we are now voting for mccain. we want to drill for oil and become energy dependent in time. we dont want sub standard health care ( especially me cuase i have a tumor), we cat afford to survive noe really so we certainly dont want obama to tax us out of our homes. we like low taxes for small businesses because THREY are the ones that put 75% of america to work! anyone with sence will tell you that. if you noticed, like i do, it is the CONGRESS that decides how out tax money is spent and CONGRESS is DEM by majority. if we got economic problems, lets blame the dems!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!we do and so we will vote for mccain. dont really expect to see this posted because it criticizes the golden child. hhhmmm.

Whatever she says, I'm sure it will be the only positive words of praise that the CNN anchors will say during the entire convention. I had to change channels last night. I got so fed up with all the negativity from the CNN political team toward Obama, his supporters, the Kennedy's etc. You can even hear a lack of any enthusiasm in all of their voices. I'LL be curious to compare to the Repub. convention. I bet they are more excited for McCain. PBS has much more objective coverage. CNN is starting to remind me of FIX news.

Maybe she'll tell John McCain to stop hiding behind her. . .and her words. If he doesn't have the courage to stand up to Obama without using Hillary Clinton as a shied, how can we possibly expect him to face our real enemies?

She will be the most hated women in America if she sidesteps ONCE
in this speech. She has already caused a great deal of trouble have
delegates signing petitions during the DNC Convention last night.
To have her name on the Nominee list is outrageous!!!!! Can't make
light of that. Just shows the true character of a woman who loves attention and power. Can't give it up!!!! It IS OVER, HILLARY.

TO ALL MY DEVOTED SUPPORTERS:

I graciously thank YOU for supporting me during my campaign. I appreciate all your support, however, we NEED to move forward and "DO THE RIGHT THING" for this country we love so much. This is NOT about me, or YOU, this is about LOVE for your country and your children's future. It's bigger than all of us. I'm not looking "back", and I hope my supporters focus on the future and not the past. The past is over and done. It's time we move this country that I love forward.

So it is with my upmost hopes that ALL my TRUE supporters follow me and HONOR me by rallying behind Sen. Barrack Obama as our next PRESIDENT. I RESPECT him and I SUPPORT HIM 110%.

I ask ALL my TRUE Clinton supporters to rally behind Sen. Barrack Obama because despite your disappointment and anger, the FACT is MY POLICIES are a LOT more in line with Sen. Obama than they are with Sen. McCain's.

I ask that you PLEASE HONOR ME, if your are my true supporter and love your country as much as I do, YOU will all join me in doing the RIGHT THING.

PLEASE don't allow Sen. McCain the opportunity to USE ME as his 'scapegoat". Please JOIN Sen. Obama and I in "CHANGING" the future of the country and moving our country forward, not backwards.

For those of you who are "threatening" to vote for Sen. McCain out of spite, bitterness and hatred. YOU were TRULY NOT IN SUPPORT OF ME TO BEGIN WITH. YOU ARE NO DEDICATED SUPPORTER OF MINE!! I DO NOT SUPPORT John McCain's failed policies and if YOU do, then you are NOT a true Hillary Clinton supporter.

A TRUE HILLARY CLINTON SUPPORTER WOULD NEVER BETRAY the one person they claim to love and support. That would be the ultimate betrayal.

Are you a traitor or a TRUE Hillary Clinton supporter? Talk is cheap, are you going to HONOR me by doing the right thing or DISGRACE my name and destroy my political future and the future of our country?

The actions of Hillary's "supporters" are enough to curdle ones stomach.

How can anyone be so bitter about losing that they have to step all over everyone else?

I didn't vote for Hillary, and if this is the kind of reaction that her supporters are supposed to have, I will never vote for Hillary,

The absolute hate, threats and outright mean statements by her supporters about Obama, leads me to believe this is group I never want to be part of.

Hillary is going to remind people that John McCain is a horrible choice for president - that he is a war monger - that he is against womens rights - that he is a true elitist - that he is demented - that he is using POW as an excuse for all his campaign mistakes - that he is a panderer that cannot be trusted - that he left his crippled wife and his children to chase after rich, young, Cindy - that he paints himself to be a pious man that is actually a wolf in sheeps clothing - and that he will not only leave our military in Iraq for years and years, but he will also invade Russia (Armegeddon) - he will bankrupt this country completely. John McCain is a dangerous man. Period.

Thats what HIllary will say.

The most important issue is teaching the DNC? Are you seriously saying that this is more important than healthcare or $4 gal gasoline? Vote for a Republican AGAIN. Do not cry when he privitizes social security and sends your children off to war.

As intelligent, articulate and gracious as she is she will say she'll do everything she can to get the democratic candidate elected.

But the wimpy obama shows how petty and childest he is….first not having a senior politican as Rangel at the convention and returning his money. What a slap in the face. Then he calls his supporters at 3AM in the morning a slap in the face of Hillary. And then his cult followers say Hillary is not at hepted up as she should be…

Petty and childest is this the type of person real mature and intelligent Americans want for a president. NO NO NO>..that's why most of the real Americans are going over to McCain.

An Obama loss will spell the end of her political career. She will not get re-elected to the US Senate from New York. She will not get 18 million votes in 2012, only half at best, which is not enough to win a nomination.

She ran on the promise that she would not run in 2008, that she would finish her term and not open up a Senate seat. The Democrats needed every seat in 2006, and still do.

Look at the face in the picture. It will be her last major speech, a farewell speech. She might know it, she might not. Past behavior suggest that she is too proud to realize that this is the beginning of the end.

Obama swallow his pride?????? Do you really think he didn't choose Hillary as a running mate based on pride? He couldn't choose Hillary because his platform is CHANGE and Clinton does not equal change.
Come on, people, Obama won fair and square, according to the election process currently followed in this country. You have to respect that. Give Hillary credit for what she accomplished, but do the right thing, vote for the candidate with the views most like hers. Nothing else makes sense.

She has done enough damage to hurt the democratic party and the Clinton legacy for many years to come. All she can say to me is that she is sorry and she knows that the inuendos and lies she made up about Obama being unprepared, sexist and etc are untrue. Since she claims that her years of being first lady make her experienced then I look forward to Mrs. Michelle Obama campaigning in eight years.

Obama & Biden 08 & 12
Michelle and Caroline 2016
A change we can believe in.

Please CNN, try posting something logically asking for unity in this country, instead of trying to stir the pot and create more ratings……

I respect her for what she did, and what she's accomplished. That's what everyone in here should do. For those that are still angry with her not winning, the hatred gets yourself, and this country, no where. It only hurts it more and creates tension between many people. For those that make negative comments toward her still, because you have never supported her, you do nothing but create tension between many people in this country. The words of anger and hatred drive a spike between people in this country regardless of who you support (democratic, republican, independent, male, female, purple, green, etc.). This is a time when so many of us have economic hardships that we must overcome. We all have a global competitive society that creates so many tensions within, and between, communities outside of this wonderful country. Yet, for some reason we as Americans continue to fight our own citizens and neighbors from within. We continue to raise animosity, anger, jealousy, and hatred toward one another and it continues to make us loose ground, and respect, in this world.

To everyone who is saying 'Hillary 2012′ or 'Hillary 2016′, I respect that regardless of who I support, but if you ruin the election for Barack Obama this time around, it can be confidently said that she will have an amazingly difficult, possibly impossible, time being able to garner the needed votes next time because there will be many people angry with her. Obama had 18+ million votes also and Hillary can not affort to disenfranchise that voters for 2012 and/or 2016 either. Voting on revenge does NOTHING to help this country with the terrible state it's currently in, and her supports will loose many of the political battles/stands they believe in if McCain wins because of their votes in November. You want to vote for someone who has almost all polar opposite beliefs then Clinton praised and believed in when she was running? You want to loose all of those battles, without even having a chance to fight them, because of McCain in office. Did you really believe in what she said, she fought for, and she believe in, or did you believe in some idealogical image of her in office without any of what was behind it?

Remember if you vote for McCain you throw away the believes of Hillary, the 18 million that supported her, Obama and the 18 million that supported him, and hurt the future of this country. Are you willing to let your bitterness harm those many people (those close to you, those you believed in, those you love, etc.) and their beliefs?

PUMA's are a bunch of closet Republicans trying to break up the Democratic party. Don't buy into this stupid rhetoric. The Democratic party is as strong as ever and the Republicans don't know what the h*ll to do. They're so afraid of losing the White House. They're afraid of having to pay taxes again. People … get smart, wake up, and don't buy into any of this nonsense.

Obama/Biden!

She will say i was robbed!!

Is it just me, or is CNN desperate for Hillary. I watched the convention last night on several different networks. CNN focused on Hillary and the PUMA fanatics, trying desperately to make it an issue. MSNBC gave them little coverage, and the convention looked much better for America. What is the CNN Clinton connection?

ATTENTION:

P.U.MA.'s AND ALL OTHER UNHAPPY HILLARY SUPPORTERS,

IF YOU CARE ABOUT HER LIKE YOU SAY……..WHY DON'T YOU IDIOTS EACH DONATE A DOLLAR TO HELP ELIMINATE HER DEBT. AFTER ALL, ISN'T THERE 18 MILLION OF YOU?

IF SHE WANTS TO KEEP HER JOB COME THE NEXT SENATE ELECTION IN NEW YORK - SHE WILL DO THE RIGHT THING

I respect her for what she did, and what she's accomplished. That's what everyone in here should do. For those that are still angry with her not winning, the hatred gets yourself, and this country, no where. It only hurts it more and creates tension between many people. For those that make negative comments toward her still, because you have never supported her, you do nothing but create tension between many people in this country.

To everyone who is saying 'Hillary 2012′ or 'Hillary 2016′, I respect that regardless of who I support, but if you ruin the election for Barack Obama this time around, it can be confidently said that she will have an amazingly difficult, possibly impossible, time being able to garner the needed votes next time because there will be many people angry with her.

Are you willing to letter your bitterness harm those many people (those close to you, those you believed in, those around you, etc.) and their beliefs?

BYE BYE and take the PUMAS with you.

I'm an independent but these comments by Obama supporters are why I WILL NEVER vote for him. If these people are what he is about, since they seem to think they OWN the right to be so negative, I will vote McCain and be happy with the next 4 years. They and their comments are what is wrong with this nation.

As an Europeen I watch these postes and it seems strange to me.

1st - The Obama supporters do believe in democracy? I supposed so… why are they so upset about her? She had the right to go till the end…didn´t she? She lost by the rules… but she had the democratical right to fight till the end….or no?

2nd - The Hillary supporters prefer to vote on McCain? Ideas…policies are far more strong than men or women… undoubtly…

America lost an opportunity…as the whole world… we all would be safer if it was Hillary to pick up the phone at 3 a.m.

She should state at the convention if anyone is planning to vote for Mcain because she did't get the nomination to leave via the closest exit and all that raise their hand should be shown that exit.

Senator Clinton need not say anything.

People should think!
Republicans used abortion, gay marriage, and immigration to get to the White House 8 and 4 years ago. Did they do anything about it, HECK NO! So, what is it with these evangelicals? Does being a Christian preclude independent thought?

For those women who want to vote for McCain - please go ahead - and watch the rights of women dissipate.

For those in the Military who want to vote for McCain, I hope you are ready to be sent off to war with Russia, because McCain is itching to start war with Russia - He has said all Americans are Georgians.

For those who have fallen under economic hardship, You want to vote for McCain? You ain't seen hardship yet.

I hope she doesn't start getting up and whining about her candidacy loss! The Party certainly doesn't need that, at this time especially!

Thanks in advance to all you PUMAs for putting the final nails in the coffin of democracy. Thanks for getting McCain elected so he can finish the job started by W 8 years ago: ruining this once-great nation for the benefit of the rich few.
I hope you realize that McCain's police state will still find the need to "re-educate" you if you were a registered democrat. He only needs the the help of the TWO SUPREME COURT JUSTICES HE'LL LIKELY GET TO APPOINT to get the ball rolling.

I hope Mrs. Clinton will think of electing Obama more than her own political future. Enough of what SHE needs. This country needs to defeat McCain. A future with McCain as President not only discourages me about our country in the years ahead, it scares me. The damage done by the Bush administration won't be fixed and I fear what else would happen.

NO HRC ___NO obama.

It doesn't matter what she says, there will always be that 24% that think she got robbed and won't vote Obama.

Hillary should ask any of her supporters who are tempted to vote for John McCain, "ARE YOU NUTS!!!!!!!"

Having that cranky old psycho roaming around the White House for four more years of failed Republican leadership would be a catastrophe for America.

Hopefully she says what is needed to get her supporters behind Obama. If not, she and her husband should retire from the public spotlight as they will have both tossed their political careers away.

She will do what she has to and will do it well. All these Clinton haters will blame her for everything that has gone wrong. It is not her fault that the country fell for Obama's lies. If he looses it is his own fault and the DNCs and the Media for allowing everyone to think that he was ready to be President and he is not. He does not have a clue what is really happening, he will be like a small child in a room full of new toys.

Hillary better put all personal feelings aside and have a performance worthy of an Academy Award. Otherwise, if it is perceived that she is not sincere and somehow appears to be sabotaging Senator Obama's nomination, her future in politics will be done.

Hey for you obamabots that think that threatning not to vote for Hillary in 2012 will help, you better think again, this is not about Hillary, this is about an inexperienced candidate that we will not vote for, you don't have to vote for her in 2012, we can just have another 16 years of republicans if you like, no big deal to me. I am educated and I have worked every day of my life since I was 15. I will survive and so will my children, so tit for tat if you want, it's up to you, what you need to do is take a good look in the mirror and blame yourself if he doesn't win, you should have known better than to vote for an empty suit to be the nominee, you are the ones to blame for voting to nominate the person that you knew could not win, based on the hope and change mantra, where is that getting him now that he has to show the substance? Blame yourselves for his downward spiral. Foolish people

Let's get our act together

because the alternative is Bam Bam Bam, Drill Drill Drill, McTrio in the White House!

Let's get it over with. She, Bill and James Carville hello and goodbye. These are vicious people . We need strong, intelligent, honest, honest, honest people representing this country. Yes We Can

I hope Hilary says that she is all the way behind obama and really wants this ticket to win come November.

"After a lot of thought I've decided I'm becoming an Independant".

People need to start voting who they think is the best candidate, not what other people tell them to. silly sheep. people wonder why Bush got a 2nd term. United States of Sheep.

Obama has messed up no matter what Hillary does or says there is no help for Obama. and for all you supporters of Obama and Hillary you need to realize it is over for the democrats. And for the little Mrs. Obama if anyone thinks she could ever be a president, wow what is america come to. That would be the day I would be ashamed to be here is the day we would vote her in, never never never going to happen.

Obama is fake
Obama is fake

No way he has the knowledge to run my country, we must all put a stop to this crazy notion that Obama will be president. Not happening people wake up.

What can she say that will really mean anything. The small group of die hards will still cry and demand that she be given special attention that is not earned. The real people looking for CHANGE alread know what has to be done. GET OUT AND SUPPORT THE PARTY!!!!

Please, I beg you no more clintons! She lost, she ran a horrible campaign and horribly managed her finances, she is ungracious, could care less about this country. Please GO AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All Hillary has to do is announce, as I have read in two articles so far, that she was offered the second spot on the ticket and declined.

If that does not shut up the whiny so-called "Hillary supporters", nothing will. Some people can NEVER be satisfied. I was a Hilalry supporter from day one. Obama was NOT my first, or even second choice, but I've faced the reality of his being the nominee, as well as the reality that it would be horrific for another republican, especially McCain, who agrees so totally with Bush, to ever again occupy the White House.

You all amaze me with your short memories. Bill Clinton was a great president. Life was good then. But yet you act like he's the devil.

And Hillary? Sure, she trashed Obama in the primaries. What did you want from her? A hug? It's an election. Biden trashed Obama too. But now he's so busy kissing his butt, you wouldn't remember that, would you.

It's not Hillary's responsibility to win this election anymore. She's done. She doesn't have to say or do anything she doesn't want. If Obama can't win it on his own, maybe he picked the wrong VP.

Love you Hillary & Bill, you will be the reason I watch CNN tonight!

CNN stop this garbage. At least wait until Hillary gives the speech. Stop over analyzing the election in order to benefit McCain. If Hillary can not walk away after losing, it is her problem. If she continues to be a pain in the you know what and if Obama is elected, where do you think she will be, what happens to her Political career.

Whatever she says wont be as riveting as what Barack is going to say. Let me remind you all that this week marks the anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech. As powerful a message that Barack gave at the 2004 DNC, expect this one to be 10x better.

Obama/Biden 08

I will bet my life that they do not do the total roll call for the nomination. They will make it be cut off to make Oboma look good. However; this is going to start a whole episode when and if it occurs. People can switch they are not locked in, maybe everyone will see the light. Not doing the total roll call will start a war all on its own!!!

FINALLY! the end of the Clintons…. THANK GOD

Everyone here keeps saying all Hillary does is complain. It's her supporters who are complaining , not her. She has been gracious and has done more for the Nominee than any other runner up in any Democratic Primary to date.

She doesn't owe Obama anything, but she will give him the White House anyways.

Watching shameless people (the Clintons) getting free air time is not my idea of an evening well spent. I prefer to watch the Phillies-Mets game.

Watch your back Barack!

Anyone who would even entertain the notion of voting for McCain was never a Democrat in the first place. This is Hillary's opportunity to demonstrate how she can take on McCain and the GOP slime-machine. Candidates always say derogatory things about their opponents in primaries - don't think there isn't plenty of footage that can be used against Romney. Hillary knows her political future and her husband's legacy are at stake and I think she'll do her utmost best to make a convincing case for Obama and against McCain.

Once again Obama supporters are so dumb. There is nothing Hillary can say that would convince me to vote for Obama, NOTHING!!!

Well for one she better get up there and denounce these ads mccain is running, two she better stress how its not a wise decision to vote mccain out of spite of her loss and SHE BETTER GET TOUGH AND BASH MCCAIN THE WAY SHE BASHED OBAMA IN THE PRIMARIES!!!!!!!!!

When it comes to the PUMA's, or whatever the heck you call them, it has nothing to do with Hillary not winning the nomination or being picked for the VP spot. It has to do with the PUMA's themselves. Their feelings are bruised and they continue to raise a ruckus not because they are so concerned about Hillary as they are for themsleves. When Hillary asked them to support Obama (as she has) and they state they are going to do what they want no matter what Hillary asks, then we know it is about them and not about Hillary. That makes them immature whinning children and not the sincere committed Hillary supporters they profess to be.

Nothing. She has already giving the Republicans what they want. She wanted to be considered with the number 2 slot. Poisonous mouth.

She needs to say that she will not run for 2012 white house, that will end it and finally those PUMA people can stay home and bounce against the wall non stop.

She has to admit that she lost from this "karaoke" candidate (Obama).
She her husband and the entire Clinton campaign were totally "bamboozled" from Obama …

PUMA'S ARE GARBAGE. I HAVE A LOT OF RESPECT FOR THE CLINTONS BUT PUMA'S ARE TARNISHING THEIR GOOD NAME AND I FEEL BAD FOR THEM BECAUSE PUMAS WILL GO DOWN IN HISTORY AS THE GROUP THAT TRIED TO HIJACK THE ELECTION.

If Hillary was the better choice, then why does Obama have 19 million votes?

I am a former Edwards supporter, but now Obama will get my vote. I will be listening to Hillary speak tonight. If she is really for Obama, her speech and body language should tell me if she is sincere or not.

To all the Obama haters out there, true Democrats stick together no matter what, but if you are still complaining about Hillary not winning and you cast your vote for McCain, then you were never a true Democrat in the first place!

This should be Hillary's night, after all now that Fla & Mich is going to count, she should be the nominee. Obama should step aside and let
Clinton take her rightful spot on the stage.

I am so sick of the Clintonians

I strongly support Clintons because what they have done for American people in the past. Even Hillary lost the bid, I will still support her. I am not going to transfer my affection to Obama. Obama didn't give me any reason to do that in the past two month.

Go McCain!

Whatever she chooses to say will reflect her dedication to the people of this country and her gracious way of handling herself, be it in the good times or the bad.

She has made many friends over the past months who will always be there to support her. Her primary goal of providing affordable health care to families and children will be remembered and supported by those in office.

Her work is by no means finished. You will see her again, and who knows — maybe sooner than later!

I agree 100% with Barney. She better come correct or she can cancel 2012.

Respecting Hillary does not involve voting for Bush's Third Term. If you don't belive that, you are not a Democrat. You are like Lieberman, a jerk without a party…

Hillary supporters I truly believe a lot of the comments about she will say w/e Obama wants her to are republicans posing as democrats, don't fall into their smear campaign's and fear tactics.

"Can you see it now?

Can you see why Hillary made it impossible to select her as VP?"

To be honest, I truly believe if my boy woudv'e picked her, I can guarantee you that the GOP wouldv'e been pumped up!! Let alone she's NOT the V.P…….can you imagine if she was??? It'll kind of remind me a political cartoon I seen here on CNN. It was Bob Lang cartoon where he has Senator McCain announcing his V.P pick but guess what? The Big elephant(Conservatives) in the room is sleeping! And if my boy wouldv'e picked her, guess what? That elephant would wake up in one instant moment, LOL!!!

At this point I don't even know who to vote for anymore or if I should vote. I think the media has exhausted this campaign and the candidates are overexposed. Obama has great charisma and can talk the talk, but I'm still not sure if he could walk the walk since his decisions have been a bit wobbly lately (i.e. Biden). Honestly, even though he's got the experience, I think McCain is just too old and maybe suffering from Alzheimer's since he can't even remember how many house's he's got. If he can't keep track of that, how the hell is he gonna keep track of the country? I was for HRC and no I'm not the bitter kind. I believe you either lose or win. I want to make sure that I'm voting for the right person.

Hillary will say "See I told you that I was the better candidate to defeat John McCain. I bet you and the DNC will listen to me the next time."

If you vote against Obama and the Democratic party because you are bitter that Hillary didn't get the nomination, you have no idea what Hillary stood for in the first place.

I have been an Obama Supporter from the first time I heard him speak at the Boston 2004 Democratic convention. This race has been so bitterly contested and we had two great candidates. Now that we have one I'm hoping Hillary really shine's tonight in showing her supporters that its time to heal the wounds and get Obama/Biden to the White House. I'm really looking forward to see how she does.

Hillary said it best herself: Her platform is almost the same as Obama's. Her platform is VASTLY DIFFERENT than that of McCain's.

Any questions?

You all want her to say something positive to prove that she is behind closing the rift in the DNC.
Yet all I read here is negativity towards her. All I have read is negativity towards her from the Obama fans.
Unity starts with the people. So why don't you all unite behind all Dems. That is what Obama wants right?

This is her last chance, not just to unify the party and help get Obama elected President, but to save her own political career.

Any politician who can't even control their own supporters is not capable of leading this country. If Hillary wants to have any kind of future in national politics, she needs to prove that she can get her "supporters" to vote for the same person she is going to vote for. Sounds silly to even say that, but that's what we're talking about here.

I think she will make a good speech, and I don't doubt for a second that Hillary would rather have Obama as President than McCain. I just hope she can get her supporters to listen to her.

"Bill Chelsea and I are now officially Republicans".

see you 2012

Operation CHAOS rearing it's ugly head again tonight

Barack has divided the party not Hillary. While Biden is a good choice, Hillary would have been a great choice to unite the party. Stop blaming Hillary for the disenfranchisement of voters and look no further than your leader, the candidate of the democratic party for the division. It does feel like we are stuck in the 60's.

She should not talk about herself or address her so called supporters. She ran and she lost. Only supporters she has is in the state where she is Senator. Whatever she speak on it should be in support of Democratic Party.

She will either shift to senior party leadership role (ala Kennedy) or keep flaming the Hillary For President flames. Does she want to play this as a wise leader? Can she convince us with her sincerity? I have yet to see it.

From another post:

Moderate Democrat August 26th, 2008 12:08 pm ET

It is Obamas job to convince the voters he can do better. He has not done that yet
———————————————————————————————–
And McCain has, all I hear him saying is what he thinks about Obama. What has McCain said that does not involve the WAR. You need to get yourself together and wake up.

I am very sad Hillary is not the one, she would win.
Because Obama is democrat does not mean we have to vote for him. We vote for the right person, and even if he is democrat does not mean he is the right one. I do not think he is the right one. Too much controversial in his past , and the methods of putting other candidates down. Too much of whining, too much of pushing for him, and mainly: his angry rich wife. She should be happy for what she has, many white people did not have her priviledges, but they do not complain, do not whine. I do not like the racism being stirred up by his campaign -either it was intentional or not.
Clintons did a lot of good for this country, and she would continue, I doubt Obama can do this. Not with his ambitious wife sticking her nose in the campaign - I can imagine how she will try to influence his presidency if he will be elected. To me - he is just the weaker one in their relationship. But - I might be wrong, it just looks like it. Also, he does not make feel secure. Too much hype, turning around, too much of really disturbing came up = his pastor, her anger…etc. Just my observations and concerns. Not that they are bad people, but the way Hillary and Mr. Clinton were treated, and accused of was disgusting, disrespectful.
I have big faith in Clintons. They have right to get upset, I heard Obama gets upset, everyone in world gets upset. Mr. Clinton was disrespected way too much to stay calm and let them to let them to step over him.
Also, all pro-Obama bloggers are extremely pushy, forceful, nasty. This is very disturbing - is this how the world will be if he will be elected? Forcing, spying, discriminating, racism calling for miniscule innocent words? It might be that only bloggers are like this, but Obama's campaing did/say pretty mean things too….

well, I cannot vote for Obama because of many things I do not like on them.

It's funny how Clinton supporters are complaining about "the process" of electing the Democrat nominee.

For one, isn't this the same process that all candidates agreed to at the start of the primaries. In addition, this is the exact same "process" by which Bill Clinton was elected President twice in the 90's.

Let's stop all the infighting, and focus on taking back the White House.

P.S - PUMA's get a LIFE!

I have no idea what she'll say (and the fact she hasn't let anyone see her speech is a little disconcerting), but I do have a question: WHERE ARE THEY - the Clinton fans??? By now I am well aware of the way the media works. I would bet my mortgage payment that the reporters scoured the convention floor looking for Hilary protesters. All they could come up with was one confused sounding young delegate and another publicity seeking political wanna-be. The throngs of angry disenhanted Hilaryites were no where to be found. With most of us accusing the media of being low-life sensationalists, I know they were doing their best to to validate their inflammatory claims. But they could not. Why? Because there are none!

DEMOCRATS–Please unite for the sake of our nation. We are at a most critical crossroad in our history–the stakes are too high to waste even one vote.

Call me paranoid,
But I think that Hillary and her pack of PUMA's are closet Republicans.

If McCain wins '08, Hillary will get very little support in '12.

I won't forget !!!!!!

Obama/Biden '08 Let's take our country back !!

I am hoping that the delegates change their votes to Hillary Clinton instead of Obama. Make Hillary Clinton the nominee, for she is the only one that can beat McCain in November.

Obama, by picking Biden instead of Hillary Clinton, has started his own down fall. He is unable to beat McCain in November.

Democrats will NOT win back the White House!

She Will Do What She Has To Do Then Leave The Stage Gracefully I Hope! She May Have Earned The Right To Speak But Is Still Not Entitled To Lead! In Sure She Will Do A Good Job, Save Her Career, And Release Her Delegates To Obama! The Pumas Have Lost Their Teeth!

PUMA haters…..they are being interviewed now on fox. You think they are a waste of time…think again.

Well done Puma, your point is being made and i think it scares the DNC, and you definitely make the obama supporters get their knickers in a knot.

Hillary will say that in less than 9 months McCain has aged 10 years.

No longer the maverick of once, forgetful, flip-flopper…you name it.

HOW VERY SAD!!!

What she will say: "Support Obama."

And those of her followers who care more about the future of this country than about their own hurt feelings will listen to her.

"Sick & Tired"- I have always thought that what you said will transpire. the police presence and the exercises they conducted in Denver in the previous months have them ready for a huge riot (there are warehouses that were converted to holding cells with razor wire. razor wire!! when photos were leaked they took down the wire but the cells remain). And we all know how the Clintons do their back room dealing. I would not be surprised at all.

All of you so-called Democrats that say you will not support Obama:

You are not a true Democrat. Either you were not a Democrat in the first place or you are a racist. If you support the platform set out by Hillary then you would move to support Obama as she has stated she would. Otherwise, you lied when you said you liked Hillary's agenda and am now only going to vote for the old white haired wrinkley guy.

Doesn't matter. Barack's movement will be in full force with or without that group of people. We will win with the new generation. We out number the old. Trust me.

What will she say?

"Please donate……………..to MY campaign debt. Thank you, have a good week and God bless."

Hope she isnot going to CRY/tears again!!!

I don't think it even matters. the damage to the party has been done. She's just faking it in hopes of getting some of her debt paid.

Hopefully, Mrs. Clinton will be gracious, will inspire, will strongly let her "PUMAS" know that a VOTE FOR MCCAIN WILL HURT OUR NATION!

Sadly, all that she said can and will be used against Sen. Obama….. I think that was the point!

Mrs. Clinton needs to remember that if she plans of running again, she will need us, Obama supporters. And if she throws our candidate under the bus…… well, karma will bite back!

What will she say? Hope she says the system was rigged. The DNC coronated Nobama without a fair shake. That she meant every word when she said he was neither prepared or experienced enough to lead. That he is an empty suit with a rock star persona. Nothing more. That the DNC is going to get what it deserves….another November loss.

Finally, that she'll be back in 2012 to clean up this mess.

I believe Obama is at fault for all this bickering, he should have swallowed his pride and asked HIllary to be the VP, that would have been the only way to cinch what should have been a free walk into the White HOuse. The fact that Obama and Clinton folks are constantly bickering here in these blogs for what is now a year or more and that it is still going on is enough proof that all of you no matter which side you are on can NOT see the forest for the trees, none of you are ignorant, you seem to be really caring Americans, but step back, breath a moment, look at what you are doing personally to keep this
going and just say, NO more!

If you try to watch her speak on CNN you will never know what SHE SAID because all the TALKING HEADS will be in the way telling you what they think she should have said.

When I see McSame, I think of WWIII — THE DRAFT!! Look out people say goodbye to your daughters, sons and grand kids because McSame is all about war. We' re already stretched thin. He has no choice but to implement the DRAFT to succeed in what he wants to do — WARMONGER!!!

Hillary know that any false step on her part will jeopardize her own political future. she knows the party does not comprise of only her followers, so just as Obama needs hers now, she will in turn, need his one day. it therefore behoves on her and her followers to get over their emotions and get on board.

Hillary will speak from the heart. She does not want a republican in the white house. She will shut up the naysayers who say she will cause trouble. The republicans want her to start a war at the convention, but she is too smart for that and will not fall into their trap. She has a few words for McCain too.

Why does the Democratic Party keep pandering to the Clintons? All they do is throw tantrums. Their view of "fair" is doing something exactly like they want it done. What a couple of children. The political landscape will be a better place when these two problem children disappear.

michelle obama 2012

This was supposed to be for me!!!! for me!!!!!!

What can she say? She and her husband are still seething that they lost. She cannot control him or her PUMAS. McCain is using all her smear lines in his ads as we expected. And we will all blame her if we lose November 4th.

The repubs cleary expected her to be VP. Not because they thought she was the best fit but because they were all ready to attack her. They already had ads out there. Once Biden was selected, they just had to revamp some of the ads, but a lot of them they didn't have to because they were going to make the general election about her anyways.

All McShame has is bitter ADS!!!! Thank you Hillary!!!

Look for her to give a blockbuster guarantee that she will not run in 2012 as we will have an incumbent president who will be running for a second term. She will redeem her legacy yet. Watch.

CNN I am so disappointed. You guys want a conflict so bad you are trying to create one. This is sick. You are suppose best political team on television. You are a joke. Your obsession with Hilary and an Obama clash is borderline crazy. Why would you want to see such destruction. Do you want ratings that bad. I believe that they have already spoken and made their peace with each other. It is you all who need to make peace with yourselves. Get a grip. Jeeezzz. Get over yourselves already.

B A R A C K—-O B A M A—- T H E—B E S T—-T H I N G—- S I N C E D—-

S L I C E D—-B R E A D

Hillary is a very smart woman she will do what is good for the democratic pary, let's not be fooled by FoxNews or CNN who are in tank for Mccain and give this lady a creadit for what she has accomplised and has done for this country and women. God bless the Democratic party and the United states.

18 MILLIONS VOTERS AT RANDOM IN ALL DIRECTIOS.///

This woman (hrc) sickens me. She's so devisive. If she was to run for anything I'd make sure she wouldn't get my votes or a whole lot of other people's for that matter (that includes NY Senate and Presidential).

Whatever it is, it will be interesting. We'll see if her claws stay put.

WHO CARES WHAT SHE SAYS. THE DAMAGE WAS DONE ON PURPOSE.

OBAMA……….08

possible the most boring convention i have ever seen. if the obama camp wanted to bore people to oblivion, they certainly succeeded last night.

She will probably behave more graciously toward Obama, even though he and his campaign continue to snub her and her supporters, unlike Ted Kennedy did with Jimmy Carter at thier convention.

At this point, I really don't care what she says. I just hope she doesn't show up in a pantsuit.

Time to face the reality that all Senator Obama had to do to unite the party and guarantee his election was offer the VP spot to Senator Clinton. He has made his ambition of uniting the party very clear. Therefore, time to face the reality that it is Obama's task and NOT Clinton's task tounite the party.

I'd rather guess what she won't say:;

- "He's so much better qualified than anyone else".

-"I've been secretly rooting for him since I heard him speak in 2004″.

-"Bill and I respect and admire Barrack as the best choice for President in 2008′.

-" I agree with Oprah".

I can't wait to hear the speech. It will be a great one for sure.

It will be a somber time for many to watch her release her delegates and end her run officially. Hillary sparked something in people that made them believe very deeply in her, and feel like they were running with her. Her supporters are just as loyal and dedicated as Obama's and it has been hard to come to grips with her loss because we were swept away by it.

She will give an amazing speech and prove once again why we loved her so much. She will work hard for Barrack because she is a life long Democrat and a loyal member.

It may be a long shot by I still am keeping my fingers crossed for her to make a bid in 2012.

This will be a moment that will unite our party once and for all. Now I hope the Obama supporters can show her the respect she deserves and has earned. She has done everything right since putting her campaign on hold. People questioned the floor vote, yet it will be a great show when she steps forward and releases her delegates.

Hillary Clinton is still a leader of our Democratic Party and most importantly of the Untied States. She will be a Ted Kennedy, a Senator with emense respect, and influence. She will be a true party elder.

Hillary? Hillary will say,it is time for the Party to Unite and get behind Obama,and the Democratic Party,because the issues are too great this election,to elect a Republican! Hillary is a real lovely person ,eligant ,gracious looser,loyal to a fault,to the Dem. Party…….you couldn't ask for better people! However, it doesn't matter what she says, the 18,000,000+ disenfranchised,will unite in opposition to the Dem. Party,if Obama is the Nominee,and vote McCain,because we know the most important issue in this election,is tackling the corruption in the DNC. We will never be disenfranchised again. We won't be silenced legally or illegally,ever again.

Who cares…..im frankly sick of seeing her name. Can we send her back to New York yet?

She will tell you that she is a spokewoman for McCain pretendind to be a democrat which is true, but she will not tell you the truth

Please. Hillary only said those things in the primaries as a tactic to get votes. Politics is a rough game and no one can blame her for playing it. At this point if she really didn't believe that we should back Obama she would say so. She has too much integrity to do otherwise.

Obama '08 / Clinton '12

Throughout the primary, Clinton said she could go "toe-to-toe" against McCain…………..well, tonight is her chance.

Pour it on, Hillary.

PUMA is either:

a) A bitter group of Hillary supporters that are too naive to realized that they're getting used by the republicans, or

b) Really just a bunch of pathetic republicans-in-dem-clothing trying desperately to cling to power by attempting to divide the Democratic party.

I can't decide which one is accurate. Does anyone know?

I really believe that the army of PUMA and the Hillary for McCain people are probably set up in McCain headquarters right now.

What can she say?? Oh I didn't mean all those bad things I said about Senator Obama. She is a calculating egotistical person whose agenda is only about her running again in 2012.

The Clinton's are destroying any hope of an honorable future in the party.

Also to the PUMA people, you are some of the most politically ignorant people on the planet. Have no doubt that if you somehow cost Barack and our party this election, Hillary will NEVER again be elected to a National Office. 19 Million Obama supporters will ensure that.

Try this for starters,

"I am sorry. I got carried away with my own personal ambitions and let that lead me down a path of regrets. The negative things I said about Sen. Obama were purely political and should have never been said under any circumstance."

She should say "I support and am voting for Senator Barack Obama."

If Clinton doesn't vigorously support Obama, she is already running for president in 2012. Unfortunately for her, most Americans would vote against the Clintonites and the Pumas, giving any Republican - even a novice one - the White House.

I think Hillary should directly address the PUMAs, etc. with the following message:

"To everyone who is saying 'Hillary 2012′ or 'Hillary 2016′: Yes, I am thinking of running again, but if you ruin the election for Barack Obama this time around, I WILL NOT be able to garner the needed votes next time because people will be too angry at me. They had 18 million votes too, and I can't afford to lose those votes because my supporters were too divisive this time around. This is a simple fact. People will remember. We need unity NOW, not revenge. By hurting Obama for me this time around, you're just hurting yourselves in the future, and you'll be killing whatever chance I have at ultimately becoming president."

She will say that this country does not need 4 more years of Bush and she will support Obama like all decent, honest, intelligent people in this country. Those who are still bitter can vote McPOW if they wish, they are pitiful.

It would behoove her and the party if she denounces McCain's use of her image and words in his campaign ads, and if she reminds her supporters that if they fall for it, they're SUCKERS.

She will show her support for the democratic candidate and her political beliefs unlike some of her traitorous "supporters." I am a former true Clinton supporter and I really wish you childish individuals would stop invoking Hillary's good name to justify your selfish, ridiculous actions. Remember the issues- women's rights, healthcare, social security? YOU ARE NOT HONORING HILLARY BY VOTING FOR A MAN WHO WANTS TO UNDO EVERYTHING HARDWORKING DEMOCRATS HAVE WORKED FOR FOR THE PAST 40 YEARS!!!!

What ever Hillary say she has to convince us she is sincere… I think the Obama camp has given the red carpet to Hillary and her family and now she needs to unite this party…. now I do feel that some of Hillary's supporters will support McStupid as they wouldn't vote for an African American (keeping it real) and the others "females" will if she sincerely tell them to do so … the bottom line to me is the most prevailing issue out there is the reversal of Roe vs Wade… if we want woman to loose their right to choose then McCain is your man, if you want to re-initiate the draft then McCain is your man, if you want WWIII hey you know Mccain is your man …. if you want the same economic policies as Bush then yean you know McCain is your man and your vote is your choice the beauty of my great Country…. hey the rich woman will go out of country to abort their fetus and the poor will be in back allies dying ….. yeah the repugs will bring us back to those good old days…. just say no!

Obama & Biden 2008

Go Hillary! Give a powerful speech tonight to thank all the great people that worked so hard on your behalf and unite the party behind Obama. I know you can do it.

She will say what ever Obama wants her to say. Most likely that he is the man for the job.

WHO CARES!!!! PUMAs get out!! We Dont Want You!!

Google: "Songbird McCain"

LEARN THE TRUTH ABOUT THIS PHONY HERO!!

OBAMA 08!!

I really don't care what she has to say.

CNN She better say everything she needs too all she will never have a furture.

I know it will be a great speach… Good luck, I hope she can get her supporters to get behind Obama. The right wing is already getting the commercial of fear out. Shame on them, lets all get behind Obama and unite. We dont need 4 more years of the same…..

I have it on good authority that although Hillary will release the delegates they are still going to vote for her on the first roll call, the second and whatever it takes to get her the nomination. They are not going to leave the convention all until Hillary is voted in.
There are hundreds of obama delegates that are switching to Hillary because they know he cannot win. He has too much baggage and the repubs have already started their attack. The DNC is petrified of the loss.
Look for a big police presence outside the center tomorrow night to stave off the riots that will occur when they hand it to Hillary, but this is the only way that the democrats will take back the white house.
Hillary 08

Maybe what she said in March…

"I know Senator McCain has a lifetime of experience that he will bring to the White House. And, Senator Obama has a speech he gave in 2002."

I believed her then… I believe her now! Too Funny!

What ever she wants. She IS an adult; and CNN needs to stop the spin.

"She's an American"!
