It's time to grow up.
Edited on Fri Mar-21-08 12:19 AM by The Godfather
Hillary, enough is enough. It's time to show some class and put the country and the party first. It's time to be an adult and step aside. The only one that benefits from your ego-driven lost cause is John McCain.

I'm tired of this shit. Our party is tearing itself apart. We're shooting so many fucking holes in the botton of our own boat, we're not even going to get out to sea in this election year if we don't get things on track. The time for bickering is over. This isn't 5th grade class president. The stakes are too high. We should be united and fierce in our determination to win and save this country after the worst presidency in United States history. Instead, we're bitching at each other.

If we can't get our act together enough to win this year, when we should be able to cruise into the White House, then all hope will be lost. Be an adult Hillary. Step aside and let's fight the real enemy, before it's too late.

9. I'd say the same about Hillary. She'll start out 5 points behind and it will be downhill from there
Over half the nation already said they would never vote for her. I personally know only 2 people who will admit they voted for her.

19. Yeah, so why do we want to start out -1 when we can start out +5 since the road is so long
and hard... it just doesn't makes sense to immediately start out 6 points lower than need be.

But the state polls do show some insight.... check out MA, CA, MO for starters...

26. to show the bullshit polls you Hillbots are praying to.
So the popular vote is unattainable so now its the "unelectable" talking point.



Pathetic.

37. You think Hilly is behind the passport incident?
Hmmm...... I think you'll be surprised at the outcome and the other things coming down the pike.
I predict a 15 point win for the Hillblazer in NC.

41. Then your post makes no sense... because she would also work under a
President Obama. She is a bureaucrat - hardly a Clintonista partisan.

16. Enjoy it while it lasts. This may be her finest hour
(and it ain't all that pretty, what with her camp pushing the 'Wright' business and barely prying themselves away from Geraldine Ferraro). No class. No moral compass. That's my problem with Hillary. And this is from someone who used to really respect her and yes I read her book and was a precinct captain for Bill.

Oh brother, what a mess. Leave it alone, Hillary. Stop trying to score political points based on false accusations. When you point at someone else, three fingers point back at you.

7. I've gotten to where I can't stand to even look at her anymore
I'm saturated. I can't take another moment of news about her. She seems willing to do absolutely anything to 'win' this. Her (and Bill's) recent praise of McCain tells me they really don't have our best interest at heart. Used to love him and respect her. Now I seriously question her character and I just want them both to go away already.

34. Even if she wanted to give it up, I don't think Bill would let her.
They're going for the title as craziest co-dependent couple in American history. Taking all the bottled-up anger and resentment out on the Democratic party.

43. I agree
Edited on Fri Mar-21-08 02:15 AM by jconner27
I only agree on this one point, what's the point of having Hillary when half you clowns are going to stay home? I say give up and let your guy have it but here's a little catch if Obama wins great the US avoids 4 more years of Bush's clone but here's the catch if he loses to Bush lite you have no one to blame you can't bitch and whine about Hillary's attacks on him in the primary was the reason. No finger pointing, no excuses. And spare the unity talk it's insulting.
