Women's Work

Never mind the two states involved accept Obama's offer and consider it fair. If it won't give Hillary the opportunity to get more free press coverage crying how it's unfair (to her) now that she needs these votes, nothing will work. She intends to take this to the convention and undermine Obama's chances to win in November. It's always all about Hillary. She's running the party into the ditch so she can get her foot in she hopes in '12. Well, for all those of you who say "I will never vote for a Black,oops, "that man," I can tell you I will never vote for that witch, opps, Hillary. When she tries to run in '12, I will do everything I can to make sure she fails to win. I happen to live in Texas. I was a precinct delegate to county caucus. Everything was honest and open. I was there. I know. Oh, well, except for the two or three precinct leaders who tried to railroad things --both Clinton people--and those two precincts are being contested at the state convention next week. Losing is not an excuse for being dishonest.

How can Hillary claim that she is being discriminated against, then ask for special treatment because she is a woman? Sounds contradictory to me...

Sour Apples! Both agreed to NOT accept Fla and MI, and Clinton even voted so, end of story! Nice to know who is going to help put McCain in office though, so much for DEMOCRATIC VALUES!! THAT'S WHAT THEY say THEY ARE PROTESTING RIGHT? Sour grapes! Deal with it, as is, and lets trash McCain!

The only reason Obama wants no part of counting the Florida and Michigan vote is because he knows that it will be a turning point for him. Hillary who has bashed by everyone especially the media has the popular vote and the overall demographics to win the nomination. She can carry the bigger states and win the electoral votes. Obama just can't!!! He really needs a reality check if he thinks that he will beat McCain in November. Hillary can!!

thank you andrew9 and nepomucena. as a floridian who would have voted for obama (had she thought her vote would count!) - i had an interesting chat with an old pal of mine. he said (paraphrased) 'all those stupid people who voted for bush and destroyed this country - f**k them... i'm not getting my taxes raised to support them.'
okay. i don't agree - but it's an interesting thought.
and on my part - anyone who can't see that we need a serious change in this country - that we need hope and someone who leads our country whom we can be proud of - that person is not, and has never been, hillary clinton.
i CANNOT understand how she thinks breaking the rules (that she previously agreed to) would in any way lead to a bringing together of anyone...
furthermore, if her actions prove to weaken the democratic party and succeed in handing john mccain the nomination - i will sit back and watch my tax break get better as every person earning less gets their taxes raised and their sons get drafted to iraq.

Another ellipses: "White" women's group. Lots of women, especially minority women didn't vote for Clinton. Ar their votes to count, also? If Obama had bee a white man, this nomination process would be over.

That someone can support rules that disenfranchise voters is beyond me.

Oh please, the MSM spent 2 months bashing Obama on Wright and the "bitter" comment while they left Hillary alone. There has been no sexism --just boomer women expect that she should be president . What a shameful bunch of wackos trying to play the sexism card--that's a flat out LIE and they know it! Now they are going to try and cloak their version of "democracy" because they are SO concerned about the "will of the people" except for the people in the caucus states. What

I am a woman over the age of 50 and I am truly amazed at these women protesting the fact that HRC should be th Dem. nominee. Are you really that hard up to have a woman president that you will accept anyone? After all the tricks, lies, race and sexism cards, this woman who has no integrity, has played during this campaign, YOU WANT HER TO REPRESENT YOU IN THE WHITE HOUSE. She is not qualified, her experience if you want to call it that, (ask her constituents in New York what they think of her and how she has not worked for them) is at best based on what her husband did. Please remember Bill Clinton is not running. And to those of you who say that Obama is not qualifed, give some examples of why he is not?

Hillary will not win this election. Not because she is a women. Because she is a lier!

This 50 year old white female is ashamed of women who think they should get their way not because their candidate won but because they are women and think that whinning will help them.

Hillary ran her entire campaign on her husband's record as President. I want to see a women as President one day too. One that earns the position on her own record. Ie: Nancy Pelosi! Now there is a REAL women!

Looks like Hillary needs George Bush's help, how to steal an election, or use the fuzzy math.
What a shame, rules dont mean anything, but then we are talking about the Clintons, breaking rules and having it their way is family business.

Interesting how Rosemary totally ignores the question about Hillary not giving a rat's ass when the delegates were stripped, but now she does. Just another delusional, radical Hillary fundamentalist, who can't see through their own blood-lust over their entitled one.

Obama HAS been a gentleman, and I'm so proud! He has been deferential and polite every step of the way. What an example to my kids!

This has become to personal for to many of us. Obama supporters are not democrats They don't hold the party values. I no longer wish to be associated with them. Im, by my partys actions being forced to become a Republican. Never in my life have I been a racist, butI am now.

Hillary should not give up. If she does lose the nomination to Obama - Perhaps she should run as VP with McCain since the Democrats don't want her. This would virtually assure Obama won't get the presidency.

I'm despairing that the Party will not come together in time for the GE. Definitley August will be too late to began the healing/uniting process, but now I'm thinking June will be too.

I'm a (43 year old female) Floridian who did not vote in the primary b/c I was told my vote would not count. I thoroughly resent Clinton's brazen disregard for anything that might get in the way of her personal gain. As an ex-New Yorker (who did *not* vote for Clinton in the senate and would have voted for Obama in the primary) I'd like to paraphrase Lloyd Bentsen: 'Senator Clinton, you're no Robert Kennedy...'
Also, Bonnie S... I'm right with you.

This is not a difficult decision, seat Florida and Michigan and award the delegates on the basis of the votes cast. Pretty simple. However should the party leadership and super delegates screw this just process, then their candidate gets screwed in November. As a Hillary Democrat, I am sickened by the actions since day one of this party and will have nothing to do with it. Should Hillary be the party's nominee, I shall vote for Hillary as the first Woman President of the United States of America. After all, what other choice is there. Hillary has the experience, record of accomplishment, and the trust of the American people. The party leadership and super delegates have Free Ride hung around their necks and cannot seem to shake him loose. Now, the second pastor comes into view; as a member of that church, I call for defrocking this thing.
