1. It was a nice speech

She should have congratulated Obama for his win in NC though.

2. I thought she did, but she was also presumptuous to believe she won IN

5. If she did, I missed it

I am chatting on DU and sometimes I missed some of the things she said. I could be wrong.

9. If you grew up in big city politics you'd recognize a fake pro-Obama delaying of her victory

6. You are out of touch!

She read a victory speech after losing! No grace.
Go look at the results! She lost delegates tonight.

Hillary supporters are hurting the Democratic Party. It needs to to said loud and often!

8. Tonight was her going away party

She deserves a little try at celebration.

It's over for her, she knows it. Let her go out on a high note.

7. It was just fine. She wants to keep fighting. I respect that. So we'll keep fighting...

And we'll keep winning.

Her, Limbaugh, all the racists. We've proven we can win, and we'll continue doing so.

10. Agreed. She's done and we need to let her go out graciously

I'm really happy with the results tonight, and it essentially seals the deal for us, but we need to start healing immedidiately.

Obama knows it.

Time to get to work.

We'll cream McCain in November!

12. My respect for Hillary Clinton went through the roof tonight.

It's obvious to me she knows it's over.

It's also obvious to me she will stay in for two more weeks, expending political capital all the way, in order to supply cover for Obama because no matter what she wins West Virginia and Kentucky.

She could drop out right this minute and she will still win both huge.

She's taking the hit. She's taking one for the team.

She is demonstrating she is a true Democrat.

16. I heard a little of a call for unity

it was essentialy an: "I'm not quite ready to drop out tonight" speech, IMO.

It was the beginning of an attempt to try to hold on to her political career. A good move for her personally.

Now she needs to figure out how to bow out as gracefully as possible as soon as possible.
