I have never asked Hillary to drop out; neither has Obama...
So why are Clinton supporters lying on Obama, calling him sexist, falsely accusing him of suppressing the votes from MI and Fl, and arguing that he has asked Hillary to leave the race?

None of that is true...

1. Because they haven't got any legitimate complaints against Obama.
So they just make shit up.

2. She does better when people see her as a victim, so they play that role.

I've never favored Clinton "dropping out". Most primary seasons go through to the end in some form or other. Even Edwards is on the ballot today in KY and should pull about 5%. Ron Paul and Huckabee continue to get votes, etc.

Campaigning in every state has served us very well and this will all become quite clear as the smoke settles. The primary season has energized the Democratic base in historic numbers and served to introduce a once relatively unknown Barack Obama to a wide swath of all voters. This has been great for the party.
