You know what? Let's duke it out till the end if Hillary and her supporters want to.
I have faith in the Democratic voters. I have faith in democracy. I have faith Obama is the best candidate and that he already wrapped up this thing. Let's just battle it out throughout May- win as many states as possible and try to take PR.

Obama will win the nomination, regardless if it ends, today, tomorrow, in 2 weeks, or in 30 years. HILLARY LOST THIS A LONG TIME AGO. Let her try her best till the end so that they have no valid argument to make except to say that she was soundly defeated by the best candidate, Barack Obama.

So, let's give Hillary and her gang some more battles to fight, if that's what they want- they already lost the war whether they realize it or not.

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, JAN. 09- YOU KNOW THAT'S COMING. :)

1. It needs to end in June. It's not Hillary I worry about-that race is over. It's about McCain and
having a strong and unified Democratic party going forward into November.

2. Thank you for giving voice to what I was just thinking...
...to the BITTER, FREEKIN' END. Hopefully HRC will have burned up that last full measure of goodwill that the majority of Dems would give her, and she'll not be electable for dog catcher in the furture--and the Clinton choke-hold on the party will be broken.

3. Terrible idea. Just terrible.
Hillary's supporters need to start realizing that she's lost. Right now she and the media is offering them false hope (there is no way she will win; if the SDs just split evenly Obama will get to the magic number; she needs a supermajority of superdelegates and that's NOT going to happen) which will lead to even more bitterness. The message that it's over needs to be driven home to them so they can start the grieving process and come around by November. 12 weeks won't be enough to beat McCain.

5. I'm tired of their whining. They are whining like a boxer who lost a close decision.

7. The problem with that is Barack
has to spend a LOT of money against the Clinton machine that he could otherwise spend to defeat McSame.
