Original message
Per Mrs. Clinton's suggestion, I will indeed go to her website and
post the message that I think she should be gathering up her things for a swift exit.

I thought her speech was maudlin and self-serving. I don't recall hearing Senator Obama's name mentioned once.

This is a global ego we're dealing with here. Hide the bunnies.

I've had quite enough of "the Clintons" for some time.

21. That's just hateful, wishful thinking. Hillary Clinton has nothing to "rebuild". She has gotten
an unbelievable number of votes in this election. That is not the disgrace that you like to imagine it is. Or that the pro-Obama pundits claim it is.

Hillary will be just fine. Obama is about to lose big time.

Steve

29. June 11
You have until June 11 to act out.


And I can assure you HRC will not be fine. There are a lot of NYers looking to work for her dem opponent in 2012 in NY.

9. He won't. They've said so, repeatedly.
If she takes this to the convention, the site will stay neutral. It's kind of fucked, but so be it.

Old Crusoe just stated his response to Sen. Clinton's invitation. There's nothing wrong with that.

15. Oh okay nutball....we'll just just go ahead and have
skinner call the Clinton campaign and tell her that Ichingcarpenter from Democratic Underground says it's time to "END THIS."

I'm sure she'll suspend immediately.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA :spray:

Not a bad idea to go by her website. She asked for our thoughts? I'll politely but firmly give her mine: GO AWAY, HILLARY.

donation and email subscribe list.

Then let 'em have it.

17. Yes, but the staffers who are collecting for that site will be reading them,
and they will go home with the wound.

I honor their participation but their choice in candidates was the wrong one, and now that she has OFFICIALLLY lost, she needs to head on home.

Let her staffers tell her that several emails came in urging her to behave like an adult.

12. Agreed...
Edited on Tue Jun-03-08 09:11 PM by zulchzulu
It was designed intentionally to be a divisive, self-serving speech that was only meant to alienate any of us that were willing to move on and hopefully have her supporters understand it's over.

She is meant historically to be in the same class as Joe McCarthy, Spiro Agnew and yes, her cheating husband.

I await karma to fulfill its obvious duty. She cannot run from that.

20. I just sent her a message saying It's OVER
and to quit destroying the Democratic Party and our chance to take the White House in November. I somehow kept it civil and kept the obscenities out!

36. Condem! Howdy. Yes. Her speech. It struck me as one of those
"celebrity essay" profiles you'd expect to see in PARADE magazine, the Sunday newspaper insert.

Obama's speech had quite a few "We's" in it.

Hers had damned few, but plenty of "I's".

Hold on to that scotch tumbler and let's mow down old man McCain!

what happened for the rest of our waking days on earth. Obama and History had a pact together and worked some serious magic.

It's a great damn night!

31. Kicking this thread on general principle alone
Edited on Tue Jun-03-08 10:35 PM by Samantha
It needed to be said, and you, Old Crusoe, said it.

I would request a copy of the message you post on her website, but I fear I would be blinded the rest of my life after reading it - so searing would the heat be from your words.

Gees, and people here think THEY have been flamed ... wait until she reads THAT.

41. Hi, Sam. I was diplomatic but firm, and simply said I felt the
speech failed to capture the moment at hand and that I felt that not acknowledging that Obama had won was poor form.

Also, I just can't picture Joe Biden or John Edwards or Chris Dodd doing what Clinton is doing, had they been competitive longer in the race. I just can't see them behaving like this.

45. Speaking of Joe Biden, John Edwards and Chris Dodd
I would love to see one of them be Obama's #2.

You are entirely correct, it was extremely poor form on her part not acknowledging Barack's incredible accomplishment. She's no Mohammed Ali, that's for sure. :)

46. I grin at that allusion to Ali, one of the true originals on the American
landscape.

As for your notion of those three as veep, I'm on board with any of 'em.

I miss them a lot, in fact.

32. Hear, hear. What she wants is justification "from her supporters" to go on.
Let's all tell her that it's time to stop the "all about me" mentality and remember it's about the party.

It's time for her to concede and to release her delegates and supporters to work for Obama against John McCain.

38. I suppose she was inviting us all to weigh in.
As a Democrat, I am and have been appalled by her behavior in this campaign. The depth of narcissism required for her to be so utterly lacking in grace is beyond measure.

I'll try to watch my language. :D

Which he is undeniably is.
