I should have said
right now on msnbc some guy is talking to Tamara about "if" Obama is the nominee Hillary will support him and that there are a few more months until the Nov elections and anything can happen. Also that Hillary said she would do whatever it takes to ensure a democrat is wins the election in the fall to include taking the VP spot "if" Obama is the nominee.
that says a lot that you forgot to mention her name. i think many of us will be doing the same over the coming months and years
thanks for the good company.
when it all started, i thought hillary was an option. she was something like the "good clinton". not the one who'd stain a blue dress in the oval office, and send missiles to kill innocent poeple when the stain grew bigger.
she was like bill clinton, but not that evil bill. the one who should know better, and do better.
wrong i was.
from her arrogant attitude to her bosnia trip, from the "as far as i know" to the bobby kennedy incident, hillary was nasty. she was disagreeable. she was uttely disgusting.
and all the while another man grew and became the option.
now he'll be president. mccain is nothing but an empty suit. a man without honor, who had to live through the most distasteful attacks on his family only to still embrace (quite literally, the photos are there) the man who perpetrated those attacks.
a man with little brains, as is evident in each and all of his speeches. not a bad man, but no option at all.
a war hero? a war survivor: it takes so little to go to war, just follow the orders. and it is only a physical feat to survive captivity. this does not endow anyone with political savvy.
such an opponent in a time when oh so many are fed up with the republicans... the result was always clear: a dem will win!
that was sure from the start. i am happy to not have been alone while that price seemed all too many times about to be taken away not by the bushies, but by those false friends called the clintons.
my only hope is now that one day we'll read in somebody's memoires how obama erased the debts of hillary's campaign and -only by money- brings her to where her dignity should have long ago, if it only existed: to go away.
my only worry is still a veep called clinton.
please, don't! please. it's nonsense, a dangerous one.
thanks to all who were there to share despair, analysis and, above all, hope.
ANyway today Barbara Walters asked the clique if Obama should take her on as VEEP. They all said NO WAY. The stupid one, Cheri, changed her mind after the race baiting. Joy and Whoopi both said that last night showed she would be divisive. Whoopi said last night's speech proved to me this is not about our country it's about Hillary.
I think this is huge because they were really big supporters.

WASHINGTON — Democrat Barack Obama has asked a three-person team, including Caroline Kennedy, to help lead the vetting of a prospective vice presidential candidate.
Kennedy has begun managing the process with high-profile Democratic insiders Jim Johnson and Eric Holder.
Johnson is the former CEO of Fannie Mae who also oversaw the vice presidential vetting for John Kerry in 2004 and Walter Mondale in 1984. Holder was deputy attorney general in the Clinton administration and has been a senior legal adviser to Obama’s campaign.
Said Obama spokesman Bill Burton: “Senator Obama is pleased to have three talented and dedicated individuals managing this rigorous process.”
That sounds like a good team, thus far. I sense is that Caroline is someone he can trust. And Johnson as a former Attorney General will speak to the legalities of vetting.
It is clear to me that Barack knows how to source talent. It's an invaluable gift. Whereas Hillary said of the numerous economists who opposed her gas tax holiday they "don't understand it".

You know she's smarter than EVERYONE! LOL!
I'm glad to see Caroline participate and become as involved as she is.
You are feeling extremely optimistic, ey????? At this point, I don't know if I have that much faith in Hill/Bill. I hope your right though!
It is just a guess. I have read that Jack Kennedy is one Bill's heroes and they were great admirer's of Jacqueline Kennedy. Hard to imagine they would make any attacks on Caroline Kennedy.
Baruch is the (Hebrew?) root of Barack's name. It means "blessed".
Is she trying to be cheeky?
-Wanna bet?

Excerpt:
Senator Clinton's speech last night was a justifiably proud recitation of her accomplishments over the course of this campaign, but it did not end right. She didn't do what she should have done. As hard and as painful as it might have been, she should have conceded, congratulated, endorsed and committed to Barack Obama. Therefore the next 48 hours are now as important to the future reputation of Hillary Clinton as the last year and a half have been.
I am disappointed.

“We pledged to support her to the end,” said Representative Charles W. Rangel, a New York Democrat who has been a patron of Mrs. Clinton since she first ran for the Senate. “Our problem is not being able to determine when the hell the end is.”
