What does Hillary want?
What would it take for Clinton to concede defeat? An insider remembers -- and draws lessons from -- the backroom deals that ended another brutal, racially charged Democratic slugfest.
By Dan Conley [2008-05-08]

  • This name calling is idiotic

    First, none of us on this penny ante web site represents anyone but ourselves. I don't speak for Obama anymore than stenton speaks for Clinton. Further, if I piss you off and call you names, that isn't going to cause every single Clinton voter in the country to oppose Obama in solidarity with you.

    I would support Clinton were she the nominee. I believe either Obama or Clinton would likely win in November.

    Reality is, Clinton will not win the nomination. She took her shot and lost. Obama's people will sit down and talk with her people to figure out what she needs, but in the end to the vicotr goes the spoils. Doesn't matter if she or her supporters like the way the race went; that's politics.

    And the professional members of her team understand that and will support Obama 100%. What's the alternative?

    Do we allow bruised egos to let McCain win?

    4 more years of anti-choice judges?

    4 more years of endless war in Iraq?

    4 more years of cowboy diplomacy?

    4 more years of no health care?

    and on and on..

    When Clinton supporters start hearing McCain attack the very issues that are their core principles; the petty bickering will end.

    We always fight hardest and dirtiest within the family.

    Some of the roughest play I've ever seen from my son's hockey team is when the team scrimmages against itself in practice.

    But let the otherside attack our nominee and then we'll come together.
