Clinton Tells Haters to Take a Hike
LORETTO, KY – After seemingly sleepwalking through campaign stops in South Dakota and Oregon, Hillary Clinton got fired up after a visit to a Kentucky distillery – telling voters here that she’s not ready to quit on them.
“You’ve seen all those folks on TV. They keep telling me to quit,” she said. “Maybe I was just raised with the kind of values you were raised. You don’t quit on people, and you don’t quit until you finish what you started, and you don’t quit on America.”
Those TV pundits say Clinton faces an impossible deficit in the delegate count, even if the DNC decides to seat all the delegates from Michigan and Florida – and especially if superdelegates keep flocking to Obama. But the New York Senator continues to make a case that looks past the primary.
“I’m running for president because I believe I would be the best president and I’m the stronger candidate to defeat John McCain in the Fall,” she said. “Right now, I am leading in the popular vote. More Americans have voted for me. Right now, if you add up the states that I have won, it totals 300 electoral votes. You have to have 270 electoral votes to win.”
She contrasted her states with those won by Obama. “My opponent has won states totaling 217 electoral votes, and lots of states like Alaska and Idaho and Utah that haven’t voted for a Democrat in a long time. So if you look at the states we have to win, if you look at the big states and you look at the swing states, I am the stronger candidate.”
As for those television pundits who are foolishly judging the race based the delegate count that will actually decide the nominee? “All those people on TV who are telling you and everybody else that this race is over and I should just be graceful and say oh, it’s over even though I’ve won more votes, those are all people who have a job,” she said. “Those are all people who have health care. Those are all people who can afford to send their kids to college. Those are all people who can pay whatever is charged at the gas pump.”
“They’re not the people I’m running to be a champion for. I’m running to be a champion for you and your children and your grandchildren.”
Clinton continues on to the state capital of Frankfort before wrapping up her day in Covington across the river from Cincinnati. With three more days until the primary here, Clinton told the crowd she needs them to make a statement on Tuesday.
“I am hoping that Kentucky will send a big message to the Democratic party and to the country, that we know what kind of president we need and we know who will defeat John McCain in the fall,” she said.

GO HILLARY KEEP FIGHTING - MILLIONS SUPPORT & VOTE FOR YOU!!!!
Obama is NOT qualified - he will never be elected with his WEAK quetionable background.
Hillary CLinton is our only hope to win back the white house
Hillary or McCain NEVER obama
Hillary…You should get in on the debate with Obama and McCain. Show em who is boss!!!!
ombama won’t debate. He’s a weakling.
Keep Fighting HILLARY!!!!
Obama is NOT Qualified.
Obama will not even go to states he will not win - WV and now KY - how ARROGANT!
Maybe he should try to get a vote or two - when he looses he will cry racist!
Obama had to wait to have a speech written on foreign policy so as to not look foolish - even the party leaders ran to defend their WEAK candidate.
Obama will never be elected - we all see thru his staged act - all so politically correct.
He cannot seem to connect with working class voters - how can he sit down with terrorist nations?
GO HILLARY!!!
The reason Hillary will not quit is because she knows there are millions of her supporters who want her to stay in this race til the end.I will support her no matter what.
you go hillary, no obama.. you win girl.. or its going to be john mccain.. and dnc can kiss off…
Go Hillary, take it to the convention. The Obama boys are trying to push you out of the race and we the people do not want that to happen. People, it is time we let these polictans know who is in charge, the people the vorters are the one’s who count.

LOL! Obama and Clinton had 21 debates so you cant say it “wont debate her” or is a “weakling” but nice try and way to keep spouting nothing but rhetoric.
Obama is weak???? Wow if he is weak what does that say about Clinton? After all he has won more states, more delegates and the popular vote (unless you believe the Clintons campaign and there mystery math).

One way we can support Hillary is to donate even if it’s only 5.00..not for the monetary value but to let her hear our voices…especially ones who have buyers remorse..
All the way to Denver…
Hillary/08, Middle America’s Choice
We Hillary fans are so pleased that our candidate, the candidate who will beat McCain in November, is continuing on to the floor of the convention, if necessary. If all else fails, that is, if the DNC still fails to admit that she is our best hope of winning in November, then I hope Hillary will pull “a Lieberman” and switch to the Independent party. She could still win it! It worked for Lieberman, and with so many outraged Clinton supporters, I believe they could make a statement in November, and let the DNC know just how we feel about being ignored and dismissed by our own party! Have they forgotten that the people ARE the party, not just the politicians who were sent there to represent us??? It’s time for a revolution, a major rebellion, and the place to do it is at the polls!!!
Obama talked about the will of the people you can’t over turn it but now he don’t have that on his side its all about delegates now! What a A$$hole!!!!! Never Obama!!!!
LOL! WOW! Talk about being disillusioned! Obama has won the most states, most delegates (pledged AND Super) AND POPULAR VOTE! You DO NOT get to pick and choose the races that you want to count for your total-Hillary ONLY GOT 55% OF THE MI VOTE
Hillary you have my admiration and respect. I travel to several states regularly, and I have not spoken to anyone lately who wants Obama with all his baggage. I think that more and more people are starting to see what he is all about and I believe that those that had voted before who didn’t have the knowledge that we now have would definitely not vote for him. His wife is a real problem for him as she has a real chip on her shoulder towards white people. One of the media shows the other night showed phone banks in the Middle East somewhere that were phoning Americans before each primary encouraging them to vote for Obama. This was on Glenn Beck’s show. It is of great concern to me that this could be happening. Everything about Obama seems wrong and I think all of us and especially the super delegates better wake up.
Hillary please stay in the race and Kentucky and Oregon please vote for her. She will make a great President and she is the most qualified candidate. Thank you Hillary for working so hard for all of us.
Go hillary do ever give up on us we are all with you. You are our only hope the democrat party do not care for the voter,s if not you hillary than mccain!!
Everyone I talk to is for Hillary, if the media would quit spouting their doom about Hillary we all would feel better. Obama, is a high class arrogant elitist.
It does not take a rockett scientist to see he is a militant also.
Hillary I pray you keep going and as one of the others stated if it comes down to it , leave the democratic party and go INDEPENDANT !!!!!!!
You will win… You are a Winner !!!!!!!!!!!! for us all !!!!!!!!!!
Hillary————Hillary——————-Hillary—-ALL THE WAY TO THE WHITE HOUSE——————————————
It makes me sick, Obama running around acting like he is already the President. And all the pundits going right along with it. The votes have not all been counted yet, it is NOT over yet. This proves just how dense and naive he really is. I sure hope the rest of the voters see this and stop him in his tracks. If everyone comes out in force I am hoping these idiot delegates will see that Obama will never be elected. For I happen to be one of those females that will NOT (never) vote for Obama. Go Hillary
You go girl…….We are behind you…..Give them Hell…All the way to Denver.!.!.!.!
In california the latino are with you hillary, latino,s will never vote for obama it is you hillary who are fighting for the working class and you are a true american and we are proud of you keep fighting for us do not give up on us please go hillary we the proud american,s are with you 100percent
I’m sick and tired of Mr Obama. It’s normal for the black people to vote for a balck candidate, but it will be racist if the white poeple vote for a white candidate.
hillary is the stronger candidate. tim russert should be fired for declaring obama the winner after the indiana primary wasn’t even called. chris matthews and that keith olberman on msnbc have bashed hillary on a nightly basis, since the primaries began. olberman even suggested obama should commit an act of violence against her, how sexist. violence against any human is wrong.hillary should stay in the race, I heard another tape of michelle obama bashing “whitey” is soon to surface. obama’s camp cries racism about everyone who questions his substance, the only racist so far have been rev. wright, and the congregation of the church he chose to be a member of for over 2 decades. let’s see how msnbc and cnn spin obama’s wife’s words on the “whitey” tape!
What do you suppose the “math” would be if undeclared superdelegates started endorsing Hillary and others started leaving Obama to go to Hillary?? They Know Hillary is the stronger candidate against McCain. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, interesting.
FOX News Poll: Nearly half of Democrats (48 percent) think Hillary Clinton has a better chance of beating McCain in November — 10 percentage points higher than the 38 percent who think Barack Obama can win

*******************
What do you expect when the media and the DNC is shoving him down our throats! I suppose Deep throats come to mind! We will have a message if he is the nominee come Nov. NOBAMA!!!
Now the mainstream media pundits are reporting that some female Clinton supporters are crying sexism. This is not just a few hundred women complaining about sexism here. Perhaps you need to watch the debate that was moderated by Tim Russert again. Do you think he was disrespectful toward Senator Clinton? I saw it as undisguised hatred. It was appalling. Everyone I have spoken to feels that the mainstream media decided long ago who the nominee would be and they have tried to railroad us into accepting Obama. But I can promise you that we will NOT come together for the good of the party, because we don’t even want to be IN the party any longer. If Clinton decided to run as an independent, we would all be changing our party affiliations. Howard Dean and the DNC have ignored us, but they will hear from us again in November when we elect John McCain. Believe it. It is going to happen. It would be simple to take yet another poll and learn the truth, but Howard doesn’t want the truth. He would rather have the fairy tale - Obama as president. Millions of women have raised money for Clinton, and if Obama becomes the nominee, we will raise money for McCain and more importantly, vote for him. That is how strongly we feel about the prospect of Obama in the white house. Don’t believe it at your peril. Women comprise the largest democratic voting block, and without us, the DNC will have some real money problems. I urge all women to vote for McCain if Obama is the nominee, and to boycott NBC and MSNBC. It’s time we took ou country back!
I have waited my whole life to see the Women Stand up for Themselves!! I Love the Woman’s Movement that is happening across all 50 (or is it 57) states right now. It’s time the women told those sexist good ‘old boys that keep bashing Hillary and telling her to get out and making sexist remarks about her…that ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. A woman has Just as much Right to run for President as a Man. Looks like the Hillary bashers make one too many remarks. These are Women and Hear them Roar!!
I appreciate Hillary Clinton’s efforts though she may be tired and spending her retirement, it shows she truly cares for the American people she so strongly believes in. She wouldn’t be doing this if she truly didn’t believe that SHE is the one to help America out of the rut it is in. How many people had “Don’t blame me I voted for Kerry” bumper strips? Seriously, we need the best representative for the Democratic party NOT a mediocre rookie who just sounds good. The Republicans are professional politicians, they know how to work a vote. GO HILLARY!
Debbie, please join us in taking our country back. Refuse to contribute to the DNC, and boycott NBC and MSNBC. Our votes DO count, and the DNC needs to learn that lesson.
KARMA will get those good Ole boys!!
Keep it going Hillary!!! You are ABSOLUTELY right! Those pundits on TV who say to quit can afford everything! I am in KY and I will vote and we will ALL show them on TUE! Hope you had a good drink for us all in Loretto, KY - Home of Maker’s Mark Distillery!!

****** Nancy the only two people who should be running is Clinton and McCain. They are the ones with experience and people we cant trust. We may not agree on each of the candidates ideas to run the country better but one thing is for certain. They love America. Obama is a hypocrite and liar. If this is the kind of person we start choosing to be our leader than we are all screwed and we may as well live in Iraq.

Obama is NOT qualified - he will never be elected with his WEAK quetionable background.
Hillary CLinton is our only hope to win back the white house
Hillary or McCain NEVER obama
**** My vote is for McCain. But it would be so sweet to see her join McCain and kick Obama’s you know what. There is no chance for a Obama/Hillary team together they are sure to loose. Hillary supports just refuse to see this man get elected. It is ashame how so many of the Democrats have turned on Hillary. I really think Obama is dangerous for our country and I hope America wakes up!
The country is afraid of Hillary because of her experience, her dedication and her worldwide contacts - Black men were given the vote before any woman was - that should make you see how thick headed this country is - well, at least the men in charge. That is the problem - that men are IN CHARGE. It’s time to take the charge out of their hands and give power where it has always been - with women.
Hillary - you go girl! Don’t give up we’re counting on you in 08!
I would just love to see a poll of the people that voted before Obama’s FRIENDS, and ACCOMPLISHMENTS were really bought to life, would change their votes. I didn’t like Hillary before, but she has really made me change my mind. She is something else. We shouldn’t blame the DNC too much. There are a lot of people in this world that will not admit they are wrong. They just keep on stating they are right until they hit rock bottom, and still can’t say I was wrong. They can yell to the heavens that people are racist, but If Obama had been half the person they made him out to be, he could have won 85% of the Whiteys. I know a lot of whiteys that thought he just might be able to change things and make it better, but now they don’t even want to see his face on tv. AND IT IS NOT BECAUSE OF THE COLOR OF HIS SKIN. America was ready to vote for a black man, but the dnc had to pick the one bad apple in the bunch. I hope everyone does vote against him. 4 years of the same would be better than No freedom for America at all. I will always think that him being front runner is RIGGED. And no one can change my mind.
Help spread the word. There are millions of “sweeties” in America who still have the right to vote last time I checked. Send a message to Howard Dean and the DNC that the largest Democratic voting block - WOMEN - are ready to bolt if they force Obama on us as the Democratic nominee. We have the power to change the outcome of the general election, and it’s time that the likes of Howard Dean, Tim Russert, Chris Matthews, Keith Olberman, and others are taught a lesson. We want the best candidate for the job, and that candidate just happens to be a woman. Here’s a message for Obama: “You’re likable enough, Barry, but as a President, uh, no.”

************************************
Actually, Nancy, I would never contribute to the DNC… I am a registered Republican. However, I am an American Woman First and Foremost. Hillary has earned my respect and admiration during this campaign and I would Love to see the nominees be Hillary and McCain. She is a fighter…she Definitely stands up for what she believes. I have been appalled at the treatment Hillary has received from the DNC and the news media. Obama makes me Fear for my children and grandchildren’s future. ANYONE But Obama. And…I’ve already stopped watching those Hillary bashing good ‘ole boys on NBC and MSNBC.
I’m sick of the racist bull in this country. It is about time people like Rev. Wright, Al Sharpton, Michelle Obama are challenged. I didn’t enslave them and I’m sick of hearing about it!
McCain 08!
I totally agree with you about your choice of the two candidates for the general election. Clinton and McCain are the only experienced candidates. Clinton has always been my choice, but if Obama is the nominee, there is no way he will get my vote. I would rather vote for a Republican patriot than an inexperienced elitist.

Huckabee’s joke about Obama Funny!!
Keep on going Hillary!!
For those who support Hillary and who will NEVER support OBAMA, visit this site:
http://clintondems.com/2008/05/hello-clinton-democrats/
It’s time to solidify and show the DNC that the popular vote does matter - because when you ignore them then that’s MORE PEOPLE WHO WON’T VOTE FOR THE DEMS IN NOVEMBER!
Especially after seeing Obama getting owned by McCain on foriegn policy. I mean, Hillary tried to point out that Obama didn’t know what he was talking about early on in the debate, but now here we are, with a candidate who’s weak against the GOP. It’s not too late to go for Hillary!!
Mccain of course. Like i said, It is rigged and that is that. Hillary can’t win unless she runs as an independent. I don’t think she will do that, because she is also dedicated to her party and the people. Common sense tells you that Obama is a super bad candidate and the delegates keep on going to his side. I don’t know how it works, but something is making them back him, and for some reason no matter what they think he has it all wrapped up. They must know something we don’t. They just dismiss states like their vote doesn’t matter. seems unrealistic to me.
JMW. I think you have it right. It sure seems rigged to me. And there are a lot of people that went to caucuses that thought so too. How many voters in those states were even from those states I wonder. Anyway, I would vote for Colin Powell in a minute. I am not racist, but Obama is the WRONG black man. I never could stand looking at him with that smirk on his face. I watched a You Tube video that showed him ranting on about people trying to Bamboozle you where he was using all sorts of other people’s speech segments as his own, but everyone listened with AWE. He is the one Bamboozleing us. It is a shame. I hope McCain can pull this out. I would never vote for Obama. McCain/Clinton ‘08
I’ve been sick of hearing all of the TV pundits and hosts worshipping Obama and dissing Hillary for some time. That’s what REALLY solidified my support for her. I’d be tempted to give her a write-in vote, but don’t think that will work on elec voting machines. The dopey DNC won’t ever see those votes, but they WILL see my vote for McCain.
I also didn’t think this election was racial until I read that 90% of blacks were supporting Obama. I want someone with experience and wisdom and with a history of working across the aisle to be our next President, but I guess that would be called racist by the Obama camp. I’ve always liked McCain for standing up for what is right instead of just going along party lines. I don’t think Obama is up to the task yet, and I don’t like a lot of what I am seeing about him. Hillary is the strongest candidate, but unfortunately the super delegates are determined to lose this one for the dems.
Debbie, as a registered Republican, you are lucky in that you have an experienced candidate and one who undoubtedly loves this country. That is why so many Democrats would be willing to vote for him instead of Obama. We question Obama’s association with racists and terrorists, and we also question his integrity. We will have no problem voting for McCain in November. He’s a good man. The DNC is counting on the fact that the electorate is so dissatisfied with the Bush years, that we would never vote for a Republican. But, as I said, they are in for a surprise. We will not only vote for McCain, but we will contribute to him and campaign for him. I am still hoping that Clinton will be the Democratic nominee. If she is, then I’ll be happy in November either way.
I’m from Florida and I’m mad as hell….the DNC wants people to get out and vote and then, because of a Republican Governor and Legislature that changed the day of our Primary, we are all being punished like bad little kids. Hillary Clinton is the only one who can take the Democrats to the White House.
If Barack Obama gets the nomination, the Repubs will chew him up and spit him out. They will “swiftboat” him with Larry Sinclair and Rev. Jeremiah Wright and “typical white people” and he won’t know what hit him. The MSM has been tip toeing around trying not to ruffle his feathers or stir up any mud to throw at him. But that won’t last very long if the Republicans get their way. They are foaming at the mouth to get their teeth into him.
I hope the Supers open their eyes and realize that Hillary Clinton is the person to nominate not a rookie senator with practically no real experience. He spent more time in Illinois then in DC and knows very little about real politics, but he sure can talk pretty.
We need somone who can talk the talk AND walk the walk. We need Hillary Clinton in the White House not Barack Obama.
“delegates that will decide the nominee” ?
THat’s doubletalk. The nominee will be chosen in August by a vote of the 4,000+ delegates to the convention. They are now about evenly split* between the candidates. Obama’s ‘lead’ is within the margin of error: 3.75%.
Iirc, about 7% of the superdelegates have not yet stated a preference; many of those prefer to wait till the last minute to evaulate the performance of both candidates and choose the best one for the November race. That 7% is enough to wipe out Obama’s current lead and give Hillary a 3.5+ victory margin in August.
Plus however many supers and other delegates change their minds (pledged or not) as Obama continues to foul up through the primary. He’s stressed out, he can’t talk on his feet, he’s less credible all the time. This guy wants to be president, and he falls apart in a primary where he’s already been crowned winner … against Hillary who has been playing with very padded gloves.
Dem that I am, I hope Hillary plays possum all summer and lets the GOP have at him! (Assuming he’s still out of jail.)
If by any chance the DNC does choose Obama, then I’m voting for McCain, along with quite a few other Dems: see my livejournal and http://www.ironmyvote.com/mccain.htm
*Pledged delegates are near tied; superdelegates are near tied.
THE HILLARY HATERS ARE REALLY MR. BARACK OBAMA
….USING SURROGATES TO TELL HER TO QUIT WHEN HE REALLY WANTS HER TO.
OBAMA WANTS TO DENY US THE OPPORTUNITY TO VOTE
HE IS SCARED
HE PREACHES “CHANGE & UNITY” …YET HE THREW AN ENTIRE STATE (WEST VIRGINIA) UNDER THE BUS!
TAKE A HIKE BARACK….
Hillary

Oregon
This just proves what a committed president Hillary would be. She is great. She loves to work and isn’t “bored” with the process. How long has it been since we had a president who understands the average American and understands a work ethic? 8 years! Thank God Hillary fights on for us.
If Hillary tells her supporters to vote for Obama…..I will not. Our country is in turmoil now and it would be worse if Obama got in. Hillary go as an Independent ….. or better yet, start a new Party called “The Workers Party”.
Grace.
I am in Florida too.
We are all angry at the new rule of stripping votes.
Just thought I’d let you know there are lots of us in SW Florida that are very upset at the snub.
This morning when reviewing MSNBC vedo of “Hillary on Pennsivinia”, I couldn’t help but wet my eyes when I heard one of her comments. She said to the interviwer at the end: “This country is worth to fight for!”
That’s why she don’t quit, that’s why we need her to keep fighting!
Ctizens in OR and KN, please vote for Hillary! She is from people, and she is for people! She can lead us to a good future!
Thanks!
Thanks Nancy
… The DNC and the Obama campaign are going to be surprised come November. They are trying to use the McBush thing hoping the Republicans are So upset they will vote for Obama. They are Sorely Wrong. The only way a majority of Republicans would have crossed party lines is if Hillary were on the ticket…..Obama will lose those Republican votes.
“I am Woman, hear me ROAR!!! ” ~ All the way to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue ~
I offer you my hand and say ‘thank you, Madame President” ~
WOW - Lot’s of Hillary supporters here - GREAT!
Hillary Clinton is the only hope for our white house - obama is NOT QUALIFIED!!
Not even going to KY - like WV - and when he gets zero votes - will cry racist.
I am sick and tired of the DNC trying to control this election - it is an American right to vote - and the DNC cannot take that right away from us - or try to “fix” it to be fair.
The millions of Hillary supporters will never “come together” and vote for obama - we do not vote for race or gender - but the best person qualified to lead our country- Obama is NOT - I could care less about the party - only my country. The DNC better learn quick that they will loose again if they try to overturn the real will of the people - the popular vote.
Hillary or McCain - BUT NEVER obama
great web site for Hillary : hillaryclintonforum.net (not the official site, but great)
Don’t you think it looks like they are either trying to distroy the Democratic party, or they have a way of getting him to win the GE, just like he is winning the delegates. I too am so afraid he will take America down or start a war between us within the USA. Look how many whites are voting for him and people are still crying racist. Sure there are some bigots but every thing WAS!!! coming together for all Americans. Now Only God knows what is going to happen. I look for Israel to break bad if Obama is the new President. I might be wrong, but i have heard they could tear all those places up if they let go. I would hate to see that, because those poor people living there have just as much control as we have. And what is happening now in America with this race with States not being counted or delegates going against the voters choice, should show all of us how much we have to say about running the Gov. So far the politicians have worked for us, but what happens if we get one who dosen’t. We had better make sure we are going to a better place when we leave this world. Because it looks like this one is going to he!!! in a basket.
Right on! I love it…go Hillary. Finally, a Democrat with a fight and some spine. Yes, she can defeat McCain in November, she’s the only one.
KY we need you. What makes America great is the people and the willingness they have to help each other in times of trouble. We are in trouble and we need you KY to silence Obama’s premature celebration claiming victory. (He doesn’t seem to know that the nominee isn’t determined until the convention and that super delegates don’t usually count when someone becomes the presumptive nominee. There’s just so much he doesn’t know…like that IL borders KY and not Arkansas.) We need you to come out strong and make it abundantly clear that Hillary should be the nominee of the Democratic Party.
We’ll be forever grateful. God Bless you and Hillary and America.
Obama and the DNC may swiftboat Hillary but we will swiftboat them in Nov.
The voters in Florida SHOULD be mad as hell! Your Republican governor is not the only one to blame, however. The DNC came up with the arbitrary rules to begin with. I hope that you’re writing to them, also. Florida has a petition that you can download online. There is one for Florida residents and one for any other American who wants to show their support for the voters in Florida. The website is http://www.floridademandsrepresentation.org. You will need to mail in the petition, but do it soon. I downloaded 100 of them yesterday, and I truly hope that your delegates and those from Michigan will be seated at the convention in Denver. Anything less is undemocratic and unconstitutional.
Does it seem to you that Obama is already CHANGING America and he’s not even the nominee yet??? Scary
GO HILLARY!!!
Here is another Great Hillary web site Hillaryclintonforum.net (not the official site, but great)
Please post there - we do NOT have trolls!
Should obama steal the nomination - with the help of the DNC - the Hillary supporters will never “come together” to vote for Obama - not due to race or gender - but because he is
NOT QUALIFIED!!!
Hillary or McCain NEVER obama
Darn tootin. Hillary can’t quit. If she gives into the bullies, she doesn’t deserve to be president. On the other hand, because she stands up for what’s right, we know she can stand up to any bully and handle any crisis that she may have to face as president. She is a woman of character, stamina, and hutzpa.
Let Sen. Obama think he’s got it sewed up and continue to attack McCain–that gives Hillary even more time to point out the reasons why she is the best person to be the nominee and president in 08.
All votes must be counted and delegates seated accordingly. The DNC needs to wise up-why punish the citizens who exercised their right to vote, when the decision to move up the primary was made by their state party leaders.
Not allowing all votes to be counted is GOP trick and not a part of the foundation of the party that represents the people. Superdelegates need to wise up–the GOP will begin hammering that DEM contenders not supporting the will of their home states and Congressional districts.
If we are to reclaim the White House and grow our majority in both houses of Congress–all primary votes must be recognized and Superdelegats represent the people who chose them.

HILLARY CLINTON
RUN INDEPENDENT
FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO PLAN ON ATTENDING HER RALLY HIS UPCOMING TUESDAY—-INSTEAD OF CHANTING HILL-A-RY—-PLEASE CHANT—-RUN INDEPENDENT, RUN INDEPENDENT, RUN INDEPENDENT
To Jo Anne - I also used to live in FL - 22 yrs. Recently moved to South Carolina - our state moved the vote date way up - very quietly - to Jan 19th - we were not punished!!!!
I have asked/called many people - finally was told by an official that SC was a more
Diverse State - and this was allowed - “this time” - we have never voted early before!!
Sharpton & Jackson were all over this state for their guy - really sickening that the DNC allowed this to happen.
What ever happended about Sharpton going to FL to make sure all the votes were counted - not going to ditch “his people” - until he found out Hillary won - now he is silent!
We will never all come together and the DNC better wise up or they will loose - again.
Hillary or McCain NEVER obama
Legal argument to count our votes:
Civil Rights Act of 1964
Section 101 section (b)
Intimidation, Threats, or Coercion
(b) No person, whether acting under color of law or otherwise, shall intimidate, threaten, coerce any other person for the purpose of interfering with the right of such other person to vote or to vote as he may choose, for the office of President, presidential elector, Member of the Senate or member of the house of Representatives, Delegates or Commissioners from the Territories or possession, at any general, special, or primary election held solely or in part for the purpose of selecting or electing any such candidate
Coercion, Don’t bother going to the polls, your votes won’t count.
Threats, Al Sharpton, “I’ll sue if your votes count”!
Add that to a year of public humiliation, slander and general abuse by the DEAN team!
Molly.
Al Sharpton was in Orlando on Jan 7th, at an NAACP meeting. He was encouraging voters to make sure they got out and voted on Jan. 29th.
On March 10th, he was back here threatening us he’d sue if those very same votes counted!
Superdelegates ONLY vote at the convention, speculate all you want, no nominee can be made until the convention as neither will have pledge delegates to win. Hillary will have popular vote though and we shall see if the SD will over ride the will of 50% of the voters and electroual vote of the states Hillary Clinton won in the primary. If so, they lose BIG TIME.
It will be the SD changing the vote of the majority and electorial votes in the democrat swing states.
Amazing how DNC see inexperience black liberation theology candidate as better to serve the US than experience and well supported candidate with the majority of the voters are for Hillary Clinton.
This is yet another article that totally distorts what Senator Clinton has to say. THis title: Clinton Tells Haters to Take a Hike is not what she said. First of all, to use an extreme word like “haters” is so pathetic. Her opponents are really reached new lows, and really need therapy. How absurd to get so heated about a successful woman who has reached out to help turn this country around, that people cannot express themselves in a professional manner, or articulate and conduct themeselves in an appropriate way.
It makes the voters ask, “why are you so threatened” or so prejudiced agaiinst a brilliant, successful, assertive, woman? Anybody that stoops this low to constantly ridicule a respected leader of our country, really has lost any sense of reason.
What Hillary has said is that she is fighting for the American people who have voted for her and for others who will in the future. She is not quitting until there is a real reason to quit. So far, this race is very close and we have not finished the horse race. The media continues to try to paint the picture that Obama is winning this primary by a landslide which is far from true. Again, why are they so afraid? It is really pitiful that the negative reaction by the news pundits if probably due to sexism, and it shows how much more work has to be done to educate the ignorant.
Tammy.
Obama is going to be in Tampa on May 21st.
There is a turn your back protest plan in the works.
People are to turn their backs on him, just as he turned his on us!
