McCain must be stopped -- Clinton should step down
As much as I hate how Obama's razor thin message seems to matter more than the issues, no one can deny that he is now the front runner. The Democratic Party cannot afford to have this race last to convention. Hillary should step aside, as John McCain victory speech tonight was all about beating the Democrats.

20. I disagree.
He'll pick a strong popular conservative running mate to offset his own lack of conservative credentials and he'll all of a sudden start looking electable to the base especially if he's running against the biggest liberal in the Senate, Barack Obama. I actually think he has a good chance and let's face it, we're famous for fucking up good things. We'll see what happens with the Iraq war issue between now and then too.

6. Agreed.
Time to for Billary to pack it up and throw their support behind the 44th President of the United States Barack Obama.

10. Don't worry, they're only Billary for the campaign.
As soon as it's over they'll go back to their preferred separate residences, and see each other on holidays only.

13. What are you afraid of?
"The Democratic Party cannot afford to have this race last to convention."

I'm sure the party can "afford" to keep the primaries running until somebody's delegate count puts them over the finish line.

14. Hillary can't loom for much longer.
What happens if he beats Hillary again next week? We're going to drag this on ANOTHER couple weeks for Texas and Ohio? It doesn't make sense.

16. Where's he going?
Did you see him up there on stage with all those folks?
It was like the old fart express. They're going nowhere fast.

17. it would take a big person to do that. Hillary is not a big person.
she and her husband are in it for themselves, first and foremost. The country, the party, we the people, are all secondary.

21. That's one of the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Why would she want to quit before the game is over
especially considering that she could potentially win this thing. Give me a fucking break.
