She has put up a good fight and in turn it seems to have created much more interest in this election. Hopefully many more people will get out and vote, which is a good thing!
After Tuesday Senator Clinton will have surpassed Obama in the popular vote count. Senator Clinton's victories are all in Democratic stronghold states or states the Democrat needs. Senator Obama's victories are almost all in GOP states.
In yet another astoundingly arrogant move Obama plans to be in Iowa Tuesday to 'declare victory' . Though he won' t have won the nomination. We, the people, are being gamed. We've been gamed all year in this process. Howard Dean and Donna Brazille have destroyed the Democratic Party. There can be no 'healing process' because what Dean and Brazille have done is not a 'wound'. It is a robbery. We need a justice process. Not a healing process. Please understand this one fact: If Obama is the nominee he will have been awarded it with a minority of Democratic votes and an elite cabal. That fact is the alpha and omega.
I know I won't vote for Obama in November. I know I might vote for McCain.
And I know I am at peace with it.
I know the GOP will pull out all the stops to defeat Obama and I know I will support whatever they legally do. Obama is a dangerous fraud. We need at least 2 parties in this nation. Right now we only have one: The GOP. The Democratic Party is in full melt down. Fine. Justice should be served. If we, the majority members of the Democratic Party will not have our candidate nominated because a minority cabal gamed the system then we can do one thing: WALK. Walk any direction you like. Just WALK.
There are no scare tactics that can force me and millions of others back into voting for the person who lost in the process but was awarded the game.

The latest polls in Oregon show Clinton within striking distance. Obama leads 45 percent to 41 percent with 8 percent undecided and 6 percent refusing a response, according to a Suffolk University survey released this morning. An American Research Group survey puts Obama's lead at 50 percent to 45 percent.
Obama, however, appears to be confident of victory. Today, he does not plan to campaign in Oregon, instead stumping in Montana, which votes June 3. He has already scheduled a huge outdoor victory rally Tuesday night in Iowa, a battleground state in November and where his victory in the January caucuses propelled him to the front of the pack.

I love the 'creative math' that Hillary uses to strengthen her position!
Denial is a powerful thing!

'Denial is a powerful thing!'
It sure is. Just take a look at Bush. He's been denying reality for years.
This pig headed old woman should stop wasting the American peoples time, hand over the Democrats futile, irritating and doomed-to-failure mock election campaign to Ole Brown Sugar. Let him be the patsy.
She would do us all a favor by having her miserable measurements taken at Madam Tussauds, ready for addition to the Chamber of Horrors, preferably next to Count Dracula.
Geraldine Ferraro, calling Barack Obama 'sexist,' may not back him
Abridged:
Might fully one-third of the six surviving Democratic vice presidential nominees end up opposing their party's national ticket this November?
Former Democratic vice presidential candidate Gerladine Ferraro says she might not vote for the frontrunner for her party's presidential nomination, Barack Obama That possibility arose today based on comments Geraldine Ferraro, the 1984 Democratic veep candidate, made to The New York Times.
Sen. Joe Lieberman, who occupied the No. 2 slot for the Democrats in 2000, months ago declared for presumptive Republican White House nominee John McCain.
And Ferraro, a staunch Hillary Clinton supporter who sparked a brouhaha earlier this year over whether she made a racially dismissive remark about Barack Obama, apparently is no longer a reliable Democratic vote.
Ferraro, in the NYT story, terms Obama 'terribly sexist.' And, as a result, she says she may not be able to cast her ballot for him if, as anticipated, he gains the Democratic presidential nod.

Obama Tells 75,000 Oregonians Iran is 'not a threat' to US
Rick Moran
Note to Obama: Your mask is slipping.
Barack Obama has tried his best to conceal the fact that underneath all the soothing rhetoric about 'change' and being a new kind of politican, he is nothing but a 1960's style liberal with some incredibly naive views about American foreign policy.
Yesterday in front of 75,000 adoring fans, Obama really let his inner liberal take over and made one of the most outrageously stupid comment of the campaign to date. If the GOP were smart, they would take this comment and run it from now until November.
Jennifer Rubin at Commentary:
This remarkable bit of footage from Barack Obama's appearance in Oregon last night is now floating around on YouTube. It might be useful as an undergraduate course exam: how many errors can you spot? Obama apparently believes that Iran and other rogues states (he lists Iran, Cuba and Venezuela) 'don't pose a serious threat to the U.S.' Iran, specifically, he tells us spends so little on defense relative to us that if Iran 'tried to pose a serious threat to us they wouldn't . . . they wouldn't stand a chance.'
So, taken literally, he seems not much concerned about Iran's acquisition of nuclear weapons, its sponsorship of terrorist organizations, its commitment to eradicate Israel, its current actions in supplying weapons that have killed hundreds of Americans in Iraq, and its role in eroding Lebanon's sovereignty through its client Hezbollah.
...it should come as no surprise that Obama - a man whose associations with 1960's radicals is documented and who has immersed himself in liberal dogma his entire adult life - should come out and say something so ridiculous that it is going to cost him considerably at the polls.

pollster.com again is showing that Clinton can beat McCain and Obama cannot.
Add to that the fact that Hillary has gotten more actual votes in the popular vote, in the states where they actually had full elections, and you see why it looks like the superdelegates do not reflect the will of the people.
The will of the people is that we want Hillary.
And our votes show that. And the polls show she is the one to beat McCain.
