She'll have to either endorse McCain or keep silent.

1. Nonsense
This is a campaign. Nothing unusual here.

If he gets the nomination, she'll endorse him and campaign for him.

7. She'll be counterproductive campaigning for him
How, after saying McCain is more quialified, can she go out and knock down McCain over Obama.

First time she says anything, the GOP will trot out her own statements about "experience."

12. It's called politics and that's the way it's played.

14. It's the form of politics that has turned so many people off
Mutually assured destruction didn't work too well in 04, when Dean and Gephardt destroyed each other.

8. So you just accept that lying is part of a Clinton Campaign? You expect to be lied to?

10. Lying is part of all campaigns
I think Obama's campaign has lied a lot, too. It's politics.

2. Hopefully he will swiftly denounce and reject any endorsement she makes
To keep in line with his prior denouncing of Farrakhan.

3. It's like the IWR in reverse.
She was against him, but then she'll be for him.

5. So now you and all the other Obamawhiners are running with that disgusting lie
Way to go, ObamaNation, with starting up the old rumor mill in such righwing fashion about the Clintons.

9. She'll endorse him. Don't worry about it.

She wants a future in politics so she'll toe the line when this is all over.

11. "Despite his underhanded Swiftboating of my family on race, he's better than McCain,"
"He's likable enough"

13. Hell be ready by then, silly!
He's not ready now, but, as they're saying, by summer he could be ready for VP, so by November, assuredly he'll be ready.

Basically he's ready whenever she says he is.
