Obama on Winning: “I haven’t had time to think about it.”
Today as news broke that Hillary Clinton would soon help to unify the Democratic Party by announcing her support for her one-time rival, the Obama camp remained silent.
“No thanks,” a senior staffer wrote when asked to respond to the news. According to two staffers, Hillary Clinton had not yet called Obama to discuss her plan (as of 7:40 pm).
When Barack Obama arrived at the first of two high dollar Manhattan fundraisers, reporters looking for comments were ignored. Instead, the presumptive Democratic nominee shook hands with supporters and well wishers.

But the print pool reporter who covered the two fundraisers did get a question in to Obama. According to his pool report:
“Getting out of the motorcade in light drizzle, pooler asked Obama how it feels now that it appears even Hillary Clinton realizes he’s the nominee.
‘Truth is, I haven’t had time to think about it. This weekend, I’m going home, talk it over with Michele and we’re going on a date.’”
Obama is tentatively scheduled to at least sleep in Chicago tomorrow night through Sunday night.

Obama hasn`t commented yet, because he is waiting for someone to tell him what to say. Everyone knows he needs at least three days to have a statement prepared for him.
MCCAIN/CLINTON 2008
No matter what Obama does, he should know this:
Having BILLARY Clinton as vice president would be the equivalent of having a spitting Cobra as a room mate. You CANNOT control its NATURAL HABIT of spitting and biting. Either way, you get POISON in your blood circulatory system!
he actually thinks we will believe such crap coming out of his mouth , he hasnt had time to think about it , yeah it is all he has thought about, more lies, one after another. just like when he was talking in front of apac, he said that iran was a threat, yet 17 earlier he said they were not,he will take us out of one war and bring us into a nother.one lie after a nother, we as a country can not let this man win,mark my words, you will start to see the true obama,for he will not be so carefull, he thinks he has it in the bag, he will say the wrong thing, watch and see.mccain 08
Think about saying NO! to higher taxes, more regulation, a gutted military, international embarrassments involving unstable dictators and Obama’s extremist friends visiting the White House to stain it’s memory with the likes of murderers, thugs and terroritsts.
Anybody-but-obama is running strong among Republicans and Independents, while Operation Turn Down is gaing ground on the Democrat side.
Just say NO! to an Obama nation!
No Obama nation!
No Obama!
He hasn’t had time to think about how he will pay for all the things he’s promised either.
The DNC got what they wanted…another weak candidate. Now at least half of 18 million Hillary supporters are going to vote for McCain so she can run again in 2012.
Michelle alread said that she would not allow Hillary to be vice-president.
DEMOCRATS FOR MCCAIN 08!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will not vote at all if he picks someone else . since I’m not going to vote for obama if she doesn’t come along neither will most of my family and friends. She has much of the popular vote and that could only help him over the top. we have waited a very long time for a ticket with a woman on it that ticket would be very strong
It’s a great time for the Democrats! Congrats, Obama!
Don’t pick Hillary!!!!!!
OBAMA 08!!!!!!
What a hypocrite to state “I haven’t had time to think about it.” He knew darn well all along that he was going to be the nominee. That’s why he didn’t put any effort at all in campaigning in all the states, i.e., Puerto Rico and many others, because he knew from day one that he was going to be the nominee no matter what the polls state. Come on Obama stop playing your dirty politics. You’re no different than any other politician and time will prove that. At least with the Clintons you knew where they stood and they honestly did evertying they could for the underdog. You, I have my doubts. You’re using the voters to achieve your personal desires, just like you use the Chicago voters, Trinity Church and god knows who else or what else.
I agree with the following statements made by a retired Colonel. Please read!
Here ARE STRONG, POWERFUL AND COURAGEOUS WORDS COMING FROM A RETIRED COLONEL. AND READ WHAT LINCOLN HAD TO SAY AT THE END. WOW!
33 Senators Voted Against English as America ’s Official Language on June 6, 2007.

Senators:
Your vote against an amendment to the Immigration Bill 1348….to make English America ’s official language is astounding. On D-Day, no less, when we honor those that sacrificed in order to secure the bedrock, character and principles of America , I can only surmise your vote reflects a loyalty to illegal aliens. I don’t much care where you come from. What your religion is. Whether you’re black, white, or some other color…male or female…… Democrat, Republican or Independent. …… But I do care when you are a United States Senator representing Citizens of America ….and Vote against English as the official language of the United States Your vote reflects Betray al . Political Surrender. Violates Your Pledge of Allegiance. Dishonors historical principle. Rejects Patriotism. Borders on traitorous action and, in my opinion, makes you unfit to serve as a United States Senator… Impeachment… Recall… Or other appropriate action is warranted.
Four of you voting against English as A merica ’s Official Language are Presidential Candidates: Senator Biden, Senator Clinton, Senator Dodd, and Senator Obama.
Four Senators vying to lead America, but won’t or Don’t have the courage to cast a vote in favor of ‘English’ as America ’s Official Language when 91% of American Citizens want English officially designated as our language.
This is the second time in the last several months this list of Senators have disgraced themselves as ‘political Hacks’….. Unworthy as Senators and certainly unqualified to serve as President of the United States If America is as angry as I am, you will realize a backlash so stunning it will literally ‘rock you out of your panties’…. ….. And preferably totally out of the United States Senate. The entire immigration bill is a farce… Your action only confirms this really isn’t about America ….it is about self-serving politics…. ..despicable at best.
It has been said: ‘Never Argue with an Idiot….They’ll drag you down to their level!’
PRESIDENT ABRAHAM LINCOLN
‘Congressmen who willfully take actions during wartime that damage morale and undermine the military are saboteurs and should be arrested, exiled or Hanged!!!
