Who's better for Hillary? Obama or McCain?
Never mind the damage that John McCain could do in four years to the whole country if the pissed-off Hillary supporters get there way.

What about Hillary? Do you really think she'd be better off with John McCain as President?

How far do you think she'd get with her health care proposals with McCain vs Obama?

How much could she get done for working people with John McCain and the Republicans in charge?

Are you sure that Democrats will win veto proof majorities in both houses if McCain prevails?

Might there be a backlash against Hillary if there is the slightest perception she had anything to do with an Obama loss? Might she lose her Senate seat? That would not be good for her next try in 2012.

And when John McCain puts a few young conservative anti-choice Republicans on the Supreme Court, then that will be that for a generation.

Do you think Hillary would be happy about that?

If you're really so dedicated to the ideals of Hillary Clinton then you better take a few minutes to think about what would be best for her.

She can be a leader over the next four years or she can watch while we all get McCain'ed.

1. She knows that, and she'll still play a crucial role in the issues she fights for.

2. She is a hawkish democrat who is good on the domestic agenda.
She'll be effective for us in the fall.

3. What Is It That You Don't Understand?
I don't know how many links it would take to convince some people that Clinton does NOT want McCain in the White House, and if she does, she's employing some strange kind of reverse psychology.

Sooner or later the "pissed off Hillary supporters" will realize that also.

P.S. I am one of them. I "get it." Give us a little credit.

4. I know Clinton doesn't want McCain
It is the Clinton supporters who need to stop and think. My wife has a good friend who is adamant about not supporting Barack as punishment for beating Hillary. Sure she might come to her senses after a bit but maybe not...

5. Her Senate Seat Is Up In 2012 So Your Premise Is False
Senator Obama will rise or fall of his own weight as it should be with all of us.
