1. Because that's how she rolls.
Don't expect rational behavior from her.

2. It's her mothers birthday today.

I wouldn't concede on my mothers birthday if I were in her position, and I'm an Obama supporter.

3. She can still do damage to the Democratic Party and its nominee
Edited on Wed Jun-04-08 12:29 PM by kenny blankenship
and when Al Gore comes down off his mountain to join John Edwards, John Kerry, Walter Mondale, Jimmy Carter and Teddy Kennedy in endorsing Obama, she can then say See how the boys all ganged up on me it was so unfair!

"F.U." --that's why.

10. I am hoping to see this happen:
Clinton and Obama on the same stage. She concedes and introduces the next president. After that, he introduces her as his VP choice.

Do I agree with her on every issue? No. But, I think in order to secure the election, she needs to be on the ticket. And, to me that is the single most important thing.

Sure, it will cause some Obama supporters to stay home. But, in order for the Democratic party to heal, there has to be some give and take. These two candidates have brought out more voters than anyone else has been able to do in a very long time. I think it would be wrong not to consider that.

11. There are two ways we win in November: people vote for Obama
and people don't vote for McCain. How does having Hillary on the ticket get more people to vote for Obama without also turning out other people to vote for Macain?

12. I see very little good coming out of Hillary being on the ticket as VP...
Her campaign has been a major nightmare since Feb 5th (at best) and she has to many negatives to even be considered.

15. Insanity. She has thrown more BS crap at him than McCain has.
The GOP is now USING her quotes.

Jesus.
