Hillary says Obama is trying to prevent North Carolina from voting
Yesterday. Link, with video: http://tpmelectioncentral.talkingpointsmemo.com/2008/04/hillarys_new_strategy_telling.php

I have not been calling for her to drop out, although I think she has little chance of winning and there are a number of reasons why I think she would not be a good choice. But this is pure bullshit on Hillary's part, and I don't care for bullshit artists. Maybe this is her way of making up for the fact that her campaign is too broke to buy ads on TV.

4. You are absolutely right. Her 'base' is often people who just catch headlines & talking points.

10. Then she should say what she means
Funny how she mentions Barack Obama trying to stop people from voting and gives examples of states where he's running strongly. This is quite dishonest of her.

12. Everyone??? I have heard Dodd and Leahy
Obama himself has repeatedly said that he thinks it's up to HRC, Kerry said the same on This morning. I have not heard Durbin, McGaskil, Kennendy, or Casey - all Obama people - say she should get out. HRC is attempting to turn 2 leading Democrats' comments to be EVERYBODY. That she is repeatedly spinning this says something.

7. Obama left that door open
as soon as he had his surrogates go on the attack against Hillary, telling her to drop out. When they say that, they are disenfranchising the states that have not voted yet. If she were to drop out, the primary ends, and NC and all the other states will not get a say in picking the nominee. So where is the lie?????

Go Hillary!!

9. If she were to drop out, the primary would GO ON.
What the heck do you think happened in 2000 and 2004 and other presidential election years when it got down to one nominee? Do you think the remaining states just said "oh well, fuck it, nevermind then, only one guy left, so I guess we won't hold our primary."

No. They HAVE to still hold it. To assert otherwise is a lie. And ridiculous.

18. what a steaming pile of dogshit
Put up or shut up. If you have any evidence that Leahy or Dodd spoke on the behest of Obams, post it. And since he's gonna wallop her in NC, it's absurd to think that he wants to stop that state from voting. Lord, what a bunch of sniveling little whiners you hillbots are. Put on your big girl panties and stop with the incessant drone of complaints.

13. But she was willing telling people that it would over Feb 5th.
That would have disenfranchised a lot more people. If she were ahead I'm sure her surrogates would be calling on him to drop out. She probably would have been telling him herself.

15. She has no chance here. He's loved here in NC
Our local news stations in Charlotte have even sent reporters to Kenya to talk about his background.

20. I don't think she knows lies from truth anymore. It's kind of sad.
Can you imagine Hillary being vetted for something like a Supreme Court slot?

21. They Way She Says It and The Tone
is scaring the hell out of me. That fear tone that Bush used during run up to invasion, how they took WMD and scared people, Hillary is doing the same regarding a fellow democratic senator. Barack Obama is WMD and should be feared. The press will follow and Hillary will somehow pull this insanity off.

23. I'm in NC, if she drops out tomorrow, there will be peace in the valley, I will still vote for Obama
in May, and her supporters will still vote for her in May. Someone please tell her what it really means to disenfranchise a voter.

26. They're just making stuff up
just like they've been doing all along.
It's funny because it clearly doesn't help them
yet they feel compulsed to keep doing it.
Think up your own analogy.
