Nothing different.....except, maybe, the Clinton's heads are so far up their own asses that they have "ring around the collar", but, I think they may have had that a while back.

Don't forget John, the two upcoming primaries are in tiny, unmanly States that no one really cares about and don't count for anything... Whereas Puerto Rico... Everyone knows that Puerto Rico is one of the most pivotal, umm...Kinda Statey-like places and as the famous saying I've heard quoted countless times in the course of my life says "As goes Puerto Rico, so goes the entire United States of America."

Just out of curiosity I looked up which Democratic contests had been caucuses, and excluding Texas which was a hybrid, I came up with: Iowa, Nevada, Alaska, Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Minnesota, North Dakota, American Samoa, Nebraska, Washington (state), and Maine. These are the states Clinton does not include in the popular vote, yet she counts Michigan where Obama's name wasn't even on the ballot? The NYT seems to go along with her view.

And while Clinton was blubbering on, Obama, at a campaign stop in SD, countered with dignity and class:
"First of all, Senator Clinton is an outstanding public servant, she has worked tirelessly during this campaign ... and she is going to be a great asset when we go into November," he told his audience. "Whatever differences Senator Clinton and I may have, those differences pale in comparison to the other side."

Until Obama chooses a VP, it will be the #1 topic of political discussion and it will only cause Clinton supporters to get their hopes up about it when, in fact, she has almost no chance of being on the ticket. Of course, when he chooses someone else, they will damn him once again.

Why the F does the media continue to spin things like she has any legitimate chance at all?
Winston Smith

Lauren1959 "Makes no sense to me either."
It makes a lot of sense. You just have to put the pieces together.
If Obama is elected, he will probably be in office for 8 years. In 2016 Hillary will be 68 years old, a little too old to campaign and then serve as president for 8 years (until age 76.)
Plus, Obama is unlikely to choose a 60 year old running mate, he will choose someone younger who will, in 8 years, be a logical choice for the Democratic candidate. Someone probably in their 40s or 50s now.
But in four years Hillary will be only 66, still a suitable age to run and be serve as president. And the thing Hillary wants more than anything in the world is to be president of the US. She believes she is entitled to be president, and Obama is the upstart youngster who is robbing her of her entitlement.
It has been clear since March that Obama will be the Democratic nominee this election. Since Adlai Stevenson in 1956 the Dems have never run a losing candidate a second time, so if Obama loses he will likely not run again.
So Hillary's only chance to become president is for Obama to lose this election; if he does Hillary will claim the Democratic front runner position for 2012. She appears to be willing to sabotage Obama's campaign and to subject the country to another disastrous Republican president if it means she will get another chance at the office.
To hell with Obama, to hell with the Democratic party, to hell with the people of the United States, to hell with anyone or anything that stands in the way of Hillary's ambition.
Make sense now?

Bill and Hillary are no longer trying to win this time around. They are simply trying to hurt Obama's chances in the fall in the hope she will get another go around in 2012. I got news for the Clintons. We are all watching them in the Democratic Party and this was her make it or break it chance. There were so many of us in the Democratic Party who knew Hillary's vote for the war was wrong, and loudly objected. She played politics and lost. Many forgave her for that vote, but then could not bring themselves to support her after the whole Bosnia sniper fire fiasco. That lie was so unnecessary, and just playing politics again.

Here we have a handful of selfish, preening children (including the Clintons) who are more worried about power than the daily slaughter of our kids, and Iraqian kids, in Iraq. This country teeters on the brink of hell and these people start screaming about supporting McCain a/k/a Bush 2.0.

If you haven't done so yet, please write a message to each of your state's superdelegates at http://www.lobbydelegates.com
Obama Supporters:
Sending a note to current Obama supporters lets them know it's appreciated, sending a note to current Clinton supporters can hopefully sway them to change their vote to Obama, and sending a note to the uncommitted folks will hopefully sway them to vote for Obama. It's that easy...

Please stop with the scare tactics. This is a good read:
by Tony Smith
05.17.2008 - 09:07 am
We have seen a lot of desperate Democrats suddenly scrambling to “unify” with Clinton’s supporters, now that they realize that their snowjob of an election has caused turmoil and will lead to an Obama boycott in November. The classic response to our anger says that we need to relax, take a deep breath, not let emotions cloud judgment, and to think about Roe, your uterus, Third World uteruses, Iraq, thousands of dying soldiers, the economy, Bush III, and many other desperate pro-Obama talking points designed to crush the boycott and instill fear. Well, here’s my answer (disclaimer: I do not have a uterus).First of all, I do not need to clear my head and take a deep breath. I did not start voting yesterday, unlike many of Obama’s supporters. Instead, I am a lifetime Democrat, and I have been voting for Democrats locally, state-wide, and nationally since the mid-80s. I am very experienced having my candidate lose, but then moving on to support the party ticket. In past primaries, for example, I voted for Dean, Bradley, and Jesse Jackson (twice!). I get the idea of party unity, so stop treating me like a kid.
Second, my vote in November goes beyond the liberal “issues” you describe: it protests liberal hypocrisy. The party espouses an equality rhetoric but has been completely dishonest and contradictory during this election. The party has bashed poor white people and people whose last names are Clinton. The party has has ignored Latino voters because recognizing them challenges the “only racists vote for Clinton script.” The party has invented claims of racial injustice to demonize the Clintons. The party has ridiculed “uneducated” voters, even though Democrats supposedly represent disadvantaged people. Male party members and liberal media have constantly called for Clinton to drop out — starting after Iowa — in order to place an aura of doubt around her campaign. The party has ignored voters in Florida and Michigan in order to legitimize Howard Dean’s bad judgment. The party has completely ignored or even denied the sexist treatment of Clinton, while responding with absolute venom to any real or imagined “racism” directed towards Obama. The party has allowed Obama to wear multiple racial hats — the nonracial black man, the just black enough to be an historic black president, and the black racial victim –- to secure votes. If Clinton deviates even slightly from a prior script, she is portrayed as a horrible witch who would do “anything to get elected.” I refuse to join this madness.
In April, Obama pranced around and described Clinton as “Annie Oakley” gunning her way through Pennsylvania for votes. But when he came out looking like Steve Urkel bowling and drinking Yuengling for votes in the same state, the media and party ate it up — another “precious” Obama moment. Recently, CNN.COM posted footage of some mesmerized journalist covering Obama’s jeans. Why should I have to endorse this mayhem?
Third, I am unmoved by the progressive issues that the pro-Obama side uses to scare us into voting for him. But you got to love “the horror”: If you vote for McCain or don’t vote for Obama, the Supreme Court will overrule Roe, thousands of men and women will die in Iraq, poor people will remain poor, the environment will decline, we will not achieve peace on earth and domestic tranquility, and you will deprive “our children” from having a “great country.” I feel a tear coming!
These are just Karl Rovian “red alerts.” Obama is not entitled to our votes. He did not earn my loyalty. Whatever loyalty the party had from me prior to this election has been depleted. Earlier on when we wanted to discuss progressive issues, the Obama camp and the media silenced our efforts and instead focused on the big rock star pep rallies, Obamania, Camelot, weeping college students, and a host of other unimportant concerns. People could not tell us specifically why they supported him, but they knew that he was the best and that he would bring “change.” They told us that we and Clinton were cold and unhopeful and that emotions and inspiration were more important. Clinton was a mere “policy wonk,” while Obama made people “feel good again.” Well, enjoy your Hallmark moments and stop being two-faced. Suddenly, you want to talk about the issues because it benefits Obama. Earth to my fellow Democrats: Obama’s success does not dictate the way I vote.
I am still focused on issues, but topics beyond your “red scare” alerts are important to me as well. My vote responds to a party of hypocrites who dismiss loyal Democrats, bash older folks and women, and manipulate race - while calling it “progressive.” My protest is about not wanting to be a part of a vote that legitimizes sexism. I do not wish to condone the younger Democrats’ misunderstanding of the Republican witch hunts that hurt all Democrats in the past — what they call “Clinton scandals,” when every honst person recalls them as Ken Starr scandals! Where was the “education” on this issue by party veterans? The DNC rushes to bash McCain for his 100 years comment, which reputable entities like Factcheck.org say was not even true, but Clinton is misportrayed abundantly and all we get is silence. Party leadership and the media sharply denounce anything that could negatively impact Obama. They describe legitimate and fair criticism of him as racist, mean-spirited, evil, or “Clinton politics.” Clearly the party leadership has determined that anytime he looks weak, the “boys” will endorse him or call for Clinton to leave because she is “hurting the party” and “kneecapping” the “first viable black presidential candidate” - as if Clinton alone should bear responsibility for remedying the country’s history of racism which has kept people of color out of high office. Well, party leadership and media, you made these rules; suffer the consequences. To paraphrase Obama, don’t tell me my disgust with your behavior doesn’t matter. Don’t tell me sexism doesn’t matter. Don’t tell me liberal hypocrisy doesn’t matter. Don’t tell me fake racial politics doesn’t matter. Don’t tell me I must vote for Obama in order to be a “real” Democrat. If being a real Democrat means bashing women, the poor, and the elderly, manipulating race, ignoring Latinos, and stifling dissent, then I respectfully resign my membership! Achieving justice requires sacrifice, brutal honesty, and passionate commitment. I will not “endorse anything to get a Democrat elected,” and neither should you.
$$$ I'm not even going to link to the story, because candidates who have already lost the election don't get the privilege of having us promote their slime. $$$
Interesting..... but you will link to most any story you think is negative to Hillary. I have held my tongue while reading the constant day after day negative and hate filled commentary from you (John) and some other inflexible die hards.
It saddens me that some have such a black heart, I'm sure it can't be good to carry that weight, that in fact may have started to fester some time ago when Bill Clinton refused you more access? Irregardless, it is what it is.
A few days ago I had wished for Hillary to do her best (when she exits the race) to help unite the party behind Obama.
After I have seen even more hate filled commentary , while Hillary is obviously on the way out , I had thought to myself that a scorched earth policy might be the best thing.
I can only hope now that the party tears itself apart and those who take more glee in posting hate filled commentary on a daily basis get their just rewards. They can make their own party , you know, make their own bed and sleep in it, WITH OUT HILLARY supporters.
Maybe having that "SLIME" McCain in power might teach some what UNITY really means, a hard lesson to learn but I think that's what needs to happen.

I get the idea of party unity, so stop treating me like a kid.
Second, my vote in November goes beyond the liberal “issues” you describe: it protests liberal hypocrisy. The party espouses an equality rhetoric but has been completely dishonest and contradictory during this election. The party has bashed poor white people and people whose last names are Clinton. The party has has ignored Latino voters because recognizing them challenges the “only racists vote for Clinton script.” The party has invented claims of racial injustice to demonize the Clintons. The party has ridiculed “uneducated” voters, even though Democrats supposedly represent disadvantaged people. Male party members and liberal media have constantly called for Clinton to drop out — starting after Iowa — in order to place an aura of doubt around her campaign. The party has ignored voters in Florida and Michigan in order to legitimize Howard Dean’s bad judgment. The party has completely ignored or even denied the sexist treatment of Clinton, while responding with absolute venom to any real or imagined “racism” directed towards Obama. The party has allowed Obama to wear multiple racial hats — the nonracial black man, the just black enough to be an historic black president, and the black racial victim –- to secure votes. If Clinton deviates even slightly from a prior script, she is portrayed as a horrible witch who would do “anything to get elected.” I refuse to join this madness.
In April, Obama pranced around and described Clinton as “Annie Oakley” gunning her way through Pennsylvania for votes. But when he came out looking like Steve Urkel bowling and drinking Yuengling for votes in the same state, the media and party ate it up — another “precious” Obama moment. Recently, CNN.COM posted footage of some mesmerized journalist covering Obama’s jeans. Why should I have to endorse this mayhem?
Third, I am unmoved by the progressive issues that the pro-Obama side uses to scare us into voting for him. But you got to love “the horror”: If you vote for McCain or don’t vote for Obama, the Supreme Court will overrule Roe, thousands of men and women will die in Iraq, poor people will remain poor, the environment will decline, we will not achieve peace on earth and domestic tranquility, and you will deprive “our children” from having a “great country.” I feel a tear coming!
These are just Karl Rovian “red alerts.” Obama is not entitled to our votes. He did not earn my loyalty. Whatever loyalty the party had from me prior to this election has been depleted. Earlier on when we wanted to discuss progressive issues, the Obama camp and the media silenced our efforts and instead focused on the big rock star pep rallies, Obamania, Camelot, weeping college students, and a host of other unimportant concerns. People could not tell us specifically why they supported him, but they knew that he was the best and that he would bring “change.” They told us that we and Clinton were cold and unhopeful and that emotions and inspiration were more important. Clinton was a mere “policy wonk,” while Obama made people “feel good again.” Well, enjoy your Hallmark moments and stop being two-faced. Suddenly, you want to talk about the issues because it benefits Obama. Earth to my fellow Democrats: Obama’s success does not dictate the way I vote.
I am still focused on issues, but topics beyond your “red scare” alerts are important to me as well. My vote responds to a party of hypocrites who dismiss loyal Democrats, bash older folks and women, and manipulate race - while calling it “progressive.” My protest is about not wanting to be a part of a vote that legitimizes sexism. I do not wish to condone the younger Democrats’ misunderstanding of the Republican witch hunts that hurt all Democrats in the past — what they call “Clinton scandals,” when every honst person recalls them as Ken Starr scandals! Where was the “education” on this issue by party veterans? The DNC rushes to bash McCain for his 100 years comment, which reputable entities like Factcheck.org say was not even true, but Clinton is misportrayed abundantly and all we get is silence. Party leadership and the media sharply denounce anything that could negatively impact Obama. They describe legitimate and fair criticism of him as racist, mean-spirited, evil, or “Clinton politics.” Clearly the party leadership has determined that anytime he looks weak, the “boys” will endorse him or call for Clinton to leave because she is “hurting the party” and “kneecapping” the “first viable black presidential candidate” - as if Clinton alone should bear responsibility for remedying the country’s history of racism which has kept people of color out of high office. Well, party leadership and media, you made these rules; suffer the consequences. To paraphrase Obama, don’t tell me my disgust with your behavior doesn’t matter. Don’t tell me sexism doesn’t matter. Don’t tell me liberal hypocrisy doesn’t matter. Don’t tell me fake racial politics doesn’t matter. Don’t tell me I must vote for Obama in order to be a “real” Democrat. If being a real Democrat means bashing women, the poor, and the elderly, manipulating race, ignoring Latinos, and stifling dissent, then I respectfully resign my membership! Achieving justice requires sacrifice, brutal honesty, and passionate commitment. I will not “endorse anything to get a Democrat elected,” and neither should you.

Interesting..... but you will link to most any story you think is negative to Hillary. I have held my tongue while reading the constant day after day negative and hate filled commentary from you (John) and some other inflexible die hards.
It saddens me that some have such a black heart, I'm sure it can't be good to carry that weight, that in fact may have started to fester some time ago when Bill Clinton refused you more access? Irregardless, it is what it is.
A few days ago I had wished for Hillary to do her best (when she exits the race) to help unite the party behind Obama.
After I have seen even more hate filled commentary , while Hillary is obviously on the way out , I had thought to myself that a scorched earth policy might be the best thing.
I can only hope now that the party tears itself apart and those who take more glee in posting hate filled commentary on a daily basis get their just rewards. They can make their own party , you know, make their own bed and sleep in it, WITH OUT HILLARY supporters.
Maybe having that "SLIME" McCain in power might teach some what UNITY really means, a hard lesson to learn but I think that's what needs to happen.
Go fuck yourself.
