Barack Obama's epic win

The young senator makes history not only in terms of race, while a determined Hillary Clinton delays the inevitable a bit longer.

    one more. I can't help myself

    "Reminds me a lot of her refusal to concede the point about her Iraq War vote, and it speaks volumes about how she would act as president, and why I'm so glad Obama's the nominee.

    -- nitestik "

    Of a certain president we know who refuses to follow rules/laws Or acknowledge reality. Clinton is bush. She is no longer a democrat. That free's her supporters. Hopefully the democrats do not sell-out their party and ideals for a woman face. Let her run as a republican with mccain. She will take 30-40 percent of her people. She will stand with mccain for illegal immagration (slave labor). When/if obama goes right on that issue, whatever the gop does, clinton included, it won't matter. She is overplaying her hand. At least I'll get all me issues resolved by clinton selling out. May be bad for obama and the democratic party, but her selling out to the gop will be good for me. Because good will come out of it, imo.

    peace salon readers. Fear not. What clitnon does next is of very little consequence. we can't lose like parker lewis. :)
