Hillary Clinton throws down the gauntlet, seeming to threaten to stay in the race until the convention by stating during her May 20th Kentucky speech:

"And I'm going on now to campaign in Montana, South Dakota, and Puerto Rico.

And I'm going to keep standing up for the voters of Florida and Michigan.

Democrats in those two states cast 2.3 million votes, and they deserve to have those votes counted.

And that's why I'm going to keep making our case until we have a nominee, whoever she may be."

while BO and his supporters want to make HER irrelevant. How GD stupid can MANY Democrats be?

When that happens...

for the reason we repeatedly lose elections.

are obtuse?

I'm certain if we do, there will be stunned silence coming from the OTHER SIDE.

How's that working for us?

And should Clinton really be rewarded for keeping her name on the ballot despite the rules?

I got a choice between her and Kucinich and Gravel in our primary.

B*$h in a pantsuit?
:tinfoilhat:

And sometimes I have to say.

Edit to add: Her vision of reality is seperate from the obvious reality.

McCain continues to make headway while Obama gets attacked from both sides.

This is damaging our chances in the general election. It needs to end.

is SO unbecoming. :nopity:

Don't give up. Don't abandon our party. We need ya!!

She's tearing it to shreds!

It seems to me at one time people on this forum and most in the Democratic party fought for the right of the people based on the popular vote.... Hillary now has the popular vote and isn't it hight hypocritical of us to suddenly side with some phony electoral math?...

Just Sayin.

They don't report their vote counts, plus she has to count FL MI to get her number.

I'm all for popular vote, but because of the caucus states we don't get an acurate count.

And those weren't the rules going in.

In a Democracy it is the will of the people that trumps all else even if it is by a 1 vote majority didn't 2000 fiasco teach you anything? FL and MI should be required to revote plain and simple and if Obama is not honest enough to call for it or have the debate then that just tells me all I need to know about him. Don't give me the rules were laid out in the first place strawman because this race was never supposed to get this far so throw out all the old paradigms and lets agree that FL and MI require a revote what if FL dumps a 55 - 45 Clinton favored win and same with MI... remember there are millions of Democratic voters in just those two huge states... If that happens we will see the true will of the people... If Obama was supposed to win this he would have already closed the deal... too much angst in the electorate and don't forget the Republic still favors an ELECTORAL majority so that means its a contest of states not the will of the people... Obama is going to have a tough time with McCain in states that he has to win...

I do agree that there should be a revote in FL MI.

If you are so rabid about every single vote then why are you willing to ignore the will of four caucus states who followed the rules?

Your rant is just another BO bashing disguised as concern for democracy whith no basis in reality. But you did have me going there at first.

I'd be a mighty happy person. I am now getting the same visceral reaction to her that I do w/whistle ass.
