DiFi’s Doubts about Clinton Candidacy Assuaged With a Phone Call
WASHINGTON - Looks like CA Senator Dianne Feinstein is back in the Hillary fold. Yesterday, the Clinton supporter indicated that she might be wavering — telling Fox Senate producer Trish Turner that she’s a loyal person, but that “I don’t want to rip the party asunder.”
Her concern? “On this one, the key is really in the strategy and whether the strategy is workable,” she said. But Turner reports that, after receiving a phone call from Senator Clinton this morning, Feinstein felt her questions were answered.
“I’m sticking with her, absolutely,” she said. The strategy Clinton laid out for her? “To win.”
Feinstein said she didn’t give Clinton any advice on how to go forward, mostly because it didn’t seem as though she needed any. “She feels intense support from her people. She is persevering. She is very collected. She is very determined. She is really together,” said Feinstein. “And she’s going to make the decision if the time comes. She doesn’t believe its the time. And she’s going to continue on.
“Her strategy is to win this election. And she’s entitled to her opportunity to try.”
But Clinton also told Feinstein that she would do nothing that she feels would harm the party.

The Guy Obama Wants To Talk To posted by OxyCon

What do you expect from a guy who’s judgment is so poor that he hung around with the likes of Rev Wright for 20 years; terrorist William Ayers for a dozen years and did shady real estate deals with indicted crook Rezko?
======================
Ahmadinejad: Israel a ’stinking corpse’
JPost.com Staff , THE JERUSALEM POST May. 8, 2008
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Thursday that the state of Israel is a “stinking corpse” that is destined to disappear, the French news agency AFP reported.
“Those who think they can revive the stinking corpse of the usurping and fake Israeli regime by throwing a birthday party are seriously mistaken,” the official IRNA news agency quoted Ahmadinejad as having said.
“Today the reason for the Zionist regime’s existence is questioned, and this regime is on its way to annihilation.”
Ahmadinejad further stated that Israel “has reached the end like a dead rat after being slapped by the Lebanese” - referring to the Second Lebanon War in the summer of 2006.
as I sit back and watch this election drag on, and watch how the black vote has gone over whelming for Barack for no other reason than his “perceived” status as a so-called black man…when, after all i did for them during my stay at the whitehouse. their lack of support for my wife makes me sick to my stomach…and bitter.
that Barack…man…has managed to bamboozle the black population in ways that i never dreamed about, talk about a huckster…good night!!
I have tried my best to derail this Muslims ascension to the nomination but have come up short. I must have taught the democrat party leaders to well how make kool-aid and how to make voters drink it…i never thought that the msm would drink so deep from the chalice of kool-aid so as to abandon my wife…who they seemed to love so much not even 2 years ago. I gave them JW, REZKO et. al.
i have decided to exact revenge on the democrat party at a time and place of my choosing. you clowns will pay BIG…and many times over if you nominate this Muslim jacka$$ with his Arab money over my wife…don’t say you weren’t told
your lesson in Arkansas politics begins now…

I think Hillary should stay in the race because she is a better candidate than Obama. Obama is all talk, and probably no action. There have been numerous times when he has been asked pertinent questions, and he does not know what to say. Then when he does come up with a response, he just flowers his words and makes everyone feel good. I used to have respect for the superdelegates, but now they appear to be such pushovers and fall for everything Obama has to say. Obama also does not have the experience to be in the White House. Hillary does have the experience and she will balance the budget.
It is time for us to go.
It is time for Hillary to pack her bags and take a long vacation.
It sounds like she may have been threatened, lol.

________________________________________________________________
Like she balances her campaign funds? - No Thanks
Obama should do just what the Republicans are doing and that is ignore Hillary and hope that she either goes away on her own or her supporters convince her that the time is right to bow out gracefully.
H. clinton to capture bin laden .
take that B.O.
President Obama. I like it.
i think she still has the experinece to go home . wash dishes, do the laundry. go out to dinner with the husband and family. sit back watch a good movie , read a good novel and enjoy life .
just go home .
have a normal life just like all of us. time to unite and make a diffrence,
not a distraction.
Peace be with you
Wish Obama just go away!
Mark…. 16 million people from all walks of life and various levels of social strataand educational opportunites have voted for Clinton… not small chump change…. 16 million is a lot of people…. there IS a reason why they have supported her and still support her- what ever she decides to do.
Let us not forget the general election is a whole different ball game with lots of new players voting(republican party predominently white) AND the 16 million people who supported Clinton that you bash every day!!!
Bush was elected TWICE by this same group of people…
I look at these Blogs and it amazes me how the democrats have turned against Hillary will what happens if she wins the nominee then will you be on her side. You people are hypocrites.

I am so proud of Hillary Clinton. I know whateveer she told Dianae Feinstein must be very solid stuff, or she would get out of the race. I am one of the over 16 million people who voted for Hillary Clinton. I have met her 5 times now, and I think she is brilliant.I look forward to watching how the rest of the primaries play out. I believe more will be revealed about Mr. Obama.
Go Hillary…I am sure we will learn something about Obama again…I will NEVER vote for Obama…I do not trust him…I guarantee you if the voters knew what they know now about Obama, he wouldnot be where he is at today…Super Tuesday would have been a disaster…Obama claims that he is going to creat change, yet why haven’t we seen it? Also, he claims that he is going to bring both parties together…how is he going to do that if he is as left as they get????? He is all about words and it amazes me that people and the media believe this crap!
Comment by Texas Democrat :
Hillary is as far left as any - I got a question for you and all her supporters - If she is so great and has so much support, then why does she hae such a hard time raising money - seems to me people talk about her, but dont put their money where their mouth is
Thank you Senator Feinstein!!!
I knew you wouldn’t desert Senator Clinton. She is collected, she is determined, and VERY together.
Her supporters are as well. We will carry her to the nomination and then on to the White House!!!
RISE HILLARY VILLAGE RISE!!!!!
TO TEXAS DEMOCRAT.
Because, historically women have not been valued as much as men. Hillary is changing that as we speak.
She is truly the most qualified candidate to win in November.
I encourage you to go to her website: http://www.hillarycllinton.com, and read just how together this woman is.
Peace
Hillary doesn’t have Oprah money backing her and she certainly doesn’t have the millions of little Obamaphiles who donate at the click of a button. If this is your criteria for who should lead our country, then actually Ozzie Osborn should be President.
Despite the media working against her, all of you sick Obamaphiles railingn on your meaningless blog posts against her and an uphill climb every step of the way she’s still almost even steven with your pretty boy.
The real question is why can’t Barack win when he outspends her 4 to 1, Dean and the Democrat party holding anyone off of their sweet boy and all of his thugs beating up anyone who tries to come near him? Hmmmmmm….
The best presidential candidate money and breaking every rule that ever existed (except one seating the actual votes of millions of voters) can buy! That’s democratic for ya!
It’s time to leave the party and go where “women of a certian age” and working class people are respected and welcome.
Maybe Hillary doesn’t have the money your man does because she has the real working people of this country who truly are hurting from foreclosure, gas prices and trying to feed their children, you insensitive twit!
I dont understand why it wont post my post?
SR :
Or maybe folks are reading the writing on the wall and do not want to invest in a loser - HMMMMMMMMM?
I am voting for Obama, because I am a black racist radical, who wants a President who will help me, and those like me achieve our goals. With the help of our muslim brothers, their is way way we can`t take over this country. The white people will see what oppression is really like.
Unfortunately Clinton is the only Democrat standing in the way of the
elite far-lefts attempt to take full control of the Democratic Party.
Read More about the New American Disenfrachisement.
How did Barack Obama become the front-runner? With little Washington
experience, no foreign policy experiece, no record of ever crossing
party lines either in Washington or in Illinois, and consistently
trailing Clinton for 2 years prior to the first primary.
Want to know who is behind Obama’s sudden popularity?
You might be surprised!
Visit: http://politicallydrunk.blogspot.com
Hillary is the best qualified candidate. She must stay in the race. We must not let anyone push her out. Hillary has solid plans for improving the economy, ensuring health care for all, safely withdrawing our troops from Irak, protecting the environment, and improving access to quality education from Head Start to Graduate School. Hillary has been able to proudly stand up and fight every time she was put down, bruised, counted out, pushed by Obama and his supporters to quit, belittled, mocked and insulted by pundits and talking heads, attacked by the media, and abandoned by Judas-type supporters. Hillary’s loyal supporters have also been the target of these hate-filled attacks. Hillary’s supporters are often caricatured as stupid and/or senile. Hillary has been robbed of peace in her own turf. Obama supporters attend Hillary’s events (including sneaking inside paid events) for the sole purpose of disrupting those events. This is a dirty tactic used by some community disorganizers to overpower another group. Obama supporters were particularly a nuisance in Philadelphia. They tried to disrupt Hillary’s glorious victory night.
Women and men who love and respest the women in their life, must take a stand against these abusive and opressive behaviors. Don’t be a silent collaborator. There is an anti-terrorism poster that is frequently displayed in public venues: “If you see something, Say something.” Let’s adopt this as a guide to stop sexism and misogyny.!! Speak up when you hear, read, or see sexists and opressive comments against women.
Honor the women in your life. Make a Mother’s Day donation to Hillary’s campaign at HillaryClinton.com.
Oh well, the story continues. It’s not over till the fat lady sings. I saw her heading toward the stage and she was clearing her throat.
Maybe she just pointed out to Sen Feinstein that according to the exit polls, those voters in the Indiana Democratic primary (12 percent) who decided on the day of their vote to vote for her (57 to 43 for Senator Obama). In the North Carolina primary the numbers were fewer (9 per cent and a 52 to 45 edge), but she COULD make the argument that undecided voters tend to favor her candidacy. Perhaps the mood IS swinging her way. As Senator Obama is examined closer as to what his changes are and what they mean, it may be possible for her to close the gap (although that appears extremely unlikely but not impossible). Just my thoughts on the exit poll data.
Hubert Humphrey, George McGovern, Walter Mondale, Michael Dukakis, Al Gore (hanging chad), John Kerry, and Barack Obama. Notice the pattern? All losers! What is really funny, is that they sometimes vote in an attempt to reanimate John F. Kennedy… Democrats have lost 7 of the last 10 presidential election, with nomminees backed by educated affluent liberals, college students, and African Americans. The record speaks for itself! Seems to me the Democratic party has a flaw in its nomminating process.
people on welfare are able to give obama 2300. I guess it isn’t cheap to buy a nommination?
VOTE HILLARY ‘08
Thanks Diane for sticking by Hillary. We will not let her be pushed out!
Hillary Clinton is the best candidate - OBama is NOT with his radical associates and questionable background.
Hillary, Im still on your side!!! Don’t give up, we will pull you through…

Yes we finally got the leader of Al Qaeda.
Opps, My bad it’s the leader of Al Qaeda in Iraq. Oh well I’m sure McCain & Bush will come out and make you guys that want McCain to win believe this this is another positive step in the war on terror. But let me just remind you guys that another guy by the name of OBL was the one that attacked America.

Well, then Brace yourself Time For Change…. The Republicans will have the White House for another 4 years. That’s Obvious.
Regardless if you are a Clinton supporter or not….we all have the media to blame forcing Billary on us every since her questionable Senate race in 2000. If she was never married to a president…No one would have ever heard of Billary. She is merely a coat tale politician that had no real experience just a last name that she married. She had questionable practices during her legal days working for a small lawfirm.
Here’s the bottom line…..WE ALL have contributed to her campaign whether you wanted to or not. Who do you think pays for every trip that her husband makes on her behalf??? The US Taxpayer…yes…. The Secret Service needs to arrive before the former prez ever gets there so there all that expense that no one is talking about. I know we will never see what the real expense is to the tax payer to support her campaign but it will be well over a million dollars. And the longer she drags this out, she is punishing every single US taxpayer. Even if the government bills her for all this service…do you ever think she will pay for it since all the Clintons think they deserve it.
Also, with every one that is struggling to pay a mortgage….here’s is something else to ponder. Billary wants to help you out in some fashion…but…..and here’s the kicker…The Clintons bill the US government for the expense to have the US Secret Service at their residence in NY. And its exact amount of their monthly mortgage payment……Who’s the elist now???
She’ll be kicking and screaming with not a clue what went wrong when they take her sandbox away…lol
TimeForChange ,
It is not the president fault it is congress and senate that passes or denial bills and guess who runs them YEP. DEMS! Another thing is the democrats said from day one the would not support a Republican president and would not corporate with him and they have not and look at this country!
Time For Change …. don’t forget Democrats have had “control of Congress” since December, 2006. Hard to improve anything when they “hold everything up” for this election.
Bruce who was the congress? Could it be they were Dems??? (they had majority)
Gasoline was $2.00 a gallon when the DEMS took over in 2006…… thanks for the help!
Mrs Clinton
Hold on, don’t give up. I do not understand American people, and why they are voting for Obama, The should be voting for you. Mr Obama is involved with to many PEOPLE THAT HATE USA. It took him to long before he denoice anyone. You are my choice and this country should open there eyes ( BLACKS NEED TO VOTE FOR HONEST AND TRUE TO THIS COUNTRY). I believe in YOU.

Keith from WI ,
Shut up you are rambling and may I point out we pay for the big SUV Obama rides in the secret service and the jet and fuel he flies around this country in.
While we decide if we buy eggs or a gallon of gas this week,
While he tells us we need to get more gas efficient cars he rides in big SUV’s and flys in private jets.
so save your breath. Obama earmarks of 2005-2006 prove what a liar he is! he is in the special interest pockets and in the lobbyist.
Now that I know how Blacks hate us I want nothing to do with them. They hate america so…they should hope a boat to Kenya.
Keith from WI,
Yes and the dems preceded to block every bill that would of lowered gas prices. They wont let us become self dependent!
Typicalwhiteperson,
I love to hear people comment on congress now that it’s democratic run. It really shows how some people just can’t face facts. Everyone is complaining because “Congress isn’t doing it’s job” But we still have a stubborn Republican president that veto’s everything that comes his way. So my question to all of you Democratic haters is, how can congress make a change when everything they try and change mysteriously gets kicked back to them because our “GREAT PRESIDENT” doesn’t agree with it? Oh & the Great President was clearly a joke.
Wake up America …. The dems Congress need to Stop putting those “earmarks” on everything so we Can get something done. “Of Course” the democrats’ “earmarks” are going to get vetoed just like the President told him he would do if they earmark them.
go hillary! And thank you to ms feinstein!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!It is about time someone shows some balls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
typicalwhiteperson ,
Yea blame President Bush. I think the congress and senate is what? YEP Democrats look at how many earmarks Obama had 2005-2006. He lowered them when he went to run but look up Earmarks of Obama from 2005-2006 and you will be surprised. Obama is just another dirty Chicago politician cant wait till the us the Republicans show the true man too bad Hillary was forced not to allow anything out.
How many did McCain have……………..let me look ………………..NONE
It would save this country billions! maybe we could drop the gas price then.
TimeForChange,
Democrats had Jimmy Carter and the Republicans had George Bush! It will take a Clinton to clean up after McBush!
Wake up America,
President Bush stated if there was any earmarks he would send it back. The dems try to sneak earmarks in everything! So please tell your representatives DEm to send bills through without this pork added on
My daughers asked me who they should vote for….I said…its the right person for the job and they that match as close to your morals and beliefs. One should never decide just based on the persons race or gender! That would be like saying…she’s a woman so I NEED to vote that way… regardless of all the baggage or corruption in their past or put any weight on their spouses history and just ignore what we truly believe is right and just…..Would any one of us tolerate this behavior on our own work place?
BRUCE,
I will not vote for Obama I have called my county to make sure I can do it before NOV and I can in my state! God bless America!
Obama is going to be our next President.
And it is sad that Hillary is playing the race card.
I personally don’t think that the earmarks are the issue. I think that the issue is Bush. Everytime someone offers up something other than his way, he comes up with a reason not to allow it to pass. How can you blame congress when they’ve clearly offered different things to Bush but he says NO! It’s no way that congress can get anything done unless they serve it to Bush on a silver platter.
Keith from WI ,
Why don’t you ask Obama why he voted no to a bill that would of froze the mortgage crises last year and had an investigation into unfair lending. Let me know what his excuse is. or why he voted no to investigate oil price setting….interesting how now he is for it.
Dirty Chicago politics in their finest.
It is sad to hear Hillary say to USA Today, that white america is not ready to vote for a black President.
We all need to wake up! American voters break records during presidential elections, but members of congress like Ted Kennedy get to slide by for 46 years because his reelection is always midterm. College kids do not get googly eyed during midterm elections! Want change? Vote during midterm elections.
Obama is a socialist,
Listening to what “Bush said” is the reason the country is in the state that it’s in now. Maybe we should stop listening to what “Bush said” and start listening to what makes sense.
Hey typical white person, Kenya is a country that America needs. Thats where they get there oil. Remember that typical racist.
Wake up America,
When Bush took office the Democrats stated they would not work with a republican. Do you know why Bill Clinton got a lot done? Because congress and senate were Republicans and they worked with him.
Look it up Democrats stated from the start they wouldn’t corporate.
Kenya is a country that America get there oil. To hear some bozo say that blacks need to get on a boat and go back to Kenya is really sad.
Marc,
It is sad that obama is only getting 25-30% of the white vote!
They are now bringing up McCains pastor. Not from the Obama camp.
That is now Bruce. It is sad to hear Hillary make an elitist comment about white voters. Do you agree yes or no. She is basically saying that White America is not ready to vote for a Black President.
Marc ,
We don’t need Kenya we have our own oil the dems won’t let us drill!
Obama is a socialist,
Newt and the Republicans with their “contract with America”, and Bill Clinton. Those were good times!
Not the Dems, the Republicans are the one who don’t want to drill. Not the Dems. We all want to start drilling. Get your facts straight.
Wake up America … The country is in the state it is because of all the ridiculous “politically correct” nonsense and trying to Please “everyone”. No one can Please “everyone”. That’s why this country goes with the majority vote. OH…that’s right…MI and FL votes Don’t count….that just wouldn’t be Politically Correct.
It will be good times again when Obama is the President.
Marc ,
You keep trying to make Hillary look elite give it a rest she is not the one that whine about dance and piano lessons costing 10,000 while she was wear designer clothes and lives in a mansion,that would be your precious Michelle!
Obama is a socialist,
I’ll definitely look it up. If you’re right on this then I’ll admit that you’re right. I’m not like the majority of people on here that will admit when they’re wrong. But one fact still remains. The country was in bad shape before the Democrats took over congress and that’s why people voted for the Democrats. And that’s one of the main reasons that the Democrats will get my vote in November. I don’t care whether it’s Hillary or Barak. I can’t vote for someone (McCain) who wants to follow the same policies that got us into all of this mess in the first place.
Marc,
No she is saying that white America will not vote for obama. He just happen to be “black”.
Marc……the others are correct. It’s the Dems that won’t let us drill.
You said that three weeks ago just stop. come up with something new.
Wake up America,
The Democrats got put in congress to end the war!!!!But can’t, because as soon as they got power they went after Bush!

Marc ,
lol you are so confused I know it was/is the dems blocking drilling here is the link MR. Know it all
roflmao
Despite surging gas prices– Democrats refuse to drill or develop national reserves. Democrats refuse to approve new refineries. Democrats refuse nuclear energy.
DEMOCRATS REFUSE TO ACT.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/12/21/AR2005122100748.html
No, that is wrong. The republicans said that they cannot drill in Alaska even though Bush said thats what he wants to do. They have prolonged it. Obama wants to start drilling here right in america and quit depending on foreign oil.
Have you read what Obama said, everything you said just stop, thats what obama wants. You sound more like a dem just stop. I knew we were brothas. I’m your black brotha and you are my white brotha. Look at what Obama wants.
Thanks for the info Just stop. I’m reading the washington post. You always do get your info.
lol Marc let me see your information on Republicans blocking drilling/new energy. there will be a few on each side but the majority of Republicans want to reduce gas prices and want to become independent from foreign oil.
