  • Yack.

    Even in her 'victory speech,' she plagiarizes Obama. The woman has no authentic bone left in her body. The remainder of this campaign will be a thorough, grinding purgative of all that is negative, false and ego-driven in American politics. Get out your psyllium powder, America, it's going to be a bumpy night.

  • Why is she behind?

    Considering that HRC has won all the relatively big states like NY, CA, TX, OH, NJ, MA and now PA how in the hell is she behind in all the key measures?

  • The Queen isn't crowned

    When Hillary made up with the right wing group who set out to impeach her husband that was it.

    It was soooo obvious she was in it for the power. Of course, maybe all Presidents are, but damn girl, you look so greedy. It isn't a birthright, or marriage right.

    Her manager was on MSNBC tonight saying she wins the nomination, depending on whether she wins popular vote or delegate vote or largest state vote. In other words, SCREW the voters, it is her time.

    Move over Frodo, you already dropped the ring. Many of us are just sick of your "I am sooo owed this position." No, you are not. Neither is McCain. And neither was Bush.

  • The tide is turning

    Hillary gave a speech that spoke to every American and let us know how fortunate we are to be Americans. She gave a speech that touched my heart, she spoke to America, she spoke to everyone that has had to work for it. She spoke to us about counting our blessings while striving to do better and maintaining our values and ideals.

    Hillary as long as you hang in there, I won't quit giving you my support. We need a fighter, we need someone that will go the distance for America, we need your leadership more than every today. America needs that infusion of believing again, that we can do better, that we must do better, for America to continue to be the best.

    Hillary has a 10% lead and the tide will only grow in the weeks to come. Those 90 year old women will have a chance at seeing a woman president in their life time. Go Hillary, Go :-)!

  • Go to hell Hillary

    I just wrote in another post that I had let go of my Hillary hatred, but her smugness just revives it all. There is no way her continuing this contest will be beneficial for anyone but her.

    GO. AWAY.

  • Ha!

    Those 90 year old women will have a chance at seeing a woman president in their life time. Go Hillary, Go :-)!

    Uh, no, sorry, those nonagenarians are totally S.O.L. No point in giving them "false hope."

    Now, 90-year-old African-American voters...they're in the catbird seat.

  • if you believe in her

    Go donate to her campaign instead of hanging out on the boards. THAT was part of her victory speech too.

  • Stupid stupid liar and hack

    She has no chance of winning the nomination except by a coup. She didn't actually win tonight--she lost, because she had to have won by a huge margin to even get on track toward getting the requisite number of delegates. And now she has to win the rest of the races by impossible margins.

    I cannot frikkin BELIEVE that so many people are so badly informed that they cannot grasp that simple fact.

    This is just so tiresome. Go away already. Read the writing on the wall that you should have read months ago.

  • No cognitive dissonance here.

    I don't mean this as "snipey" as it sounds, but a woman who can convince herself that she had to run from sniper fire in Bosnia probably doesn't have a hard time convincing herself that a tide turns in America.

  • Great.

    On the off-chance she becomes the Democratic nominee, do you think she and John McCain will favor us with a duet of "Bomb Iran" during one of the presidential debates?

  • the tide is foaming

    well, billary gained about ten delegates tonight. wow. big night. now, she has to win at least 75 percent of the remaining delegates to pull even. the arctic will freeze over again before that happens. guess have richard mellon scaife on your side helps pull the stupid white vote. you can put lipstick on a pig and it's still a pig. tonight was a little rouge on the sow, but it doesn't change the fact she's a hack, a liar, and a loser.

  • Such hatred...the suffrage continues

    Such hatred and vial comments. I am beginning to have some concern for her safety with the level of anger seen/demonstrated here. As far as trying to throw me out...get over it, I have every right to be here as you do. Play nice!

    If it weren't for such hate, you could have heard her message more clearly. Such mean people and all while chanting HOPE AND CHANGE?????????

  • I hope she comes to her senses

    I understand that this is her shot. She's 60, so running at 64 or 68 isn't appealing. It's hard for her to let go.

    But I'm getting tired of a few things from her.

    -Her spin is unbelievable. She doesn't stand for anything anymore, she only cares about winning and running against Barack.

    - She's losing and she almost has no chance of winning. She can't seem to accept this nor can her supporters. The numbers are not on her side.

    - She apparently has no commitment to the rules in any form. The rules are whatever lets her win, nothing more.

    - Yeah, Obama can't "close the deal". But neither can Hillary. If she could, she'd be winning. Her wins in Ohio and Penn were her's to lose. They weren't "battlegrounds".

    Boy, I'll be really glad when this is finally over. Hopefully, he can take Indiana and this will seal the deal.

  • Um, Alex

    Would it be possible to write a summary of a (hard earned) victory speech delivered by Hillary Clinton without dwelling on Obama?

  • ThrowUp

    the last two black men to rise to this level of prominence in Whiteamerica were Malcolm X and Martin Luther King. No one would bother throwing a spit ball at Billary. She's establishment to the core. The only thing she gives a damn about is winning. richard mellon scaife endorsements. big bill and his Big One going on Rush the Tush. What a sellout hack. Tonight's results, predicted for weeks, change nothing. she gains about ten delegates. she's down 12 to 15 in NC, Indiana is a toss up. guess what, poopsie? She's done. She just lacks the class to admit it. She did prove that in a state with her demographic profile (old white and stupid) the Clinton Unleases Nasty Tactics works just swell. You can watch her turn into a republikan before your very eyes, cackling and lying and twisting and running up a huge debt. the alleged money she elicited tonight won't even pay her back bills. just like a republikan, she's all about credit cards. Hack.
