Obama treated like a Rockstar on visit to house floor; even a Clinton SD asked him for autograph
Obama in the House: A Clinton super gets an autograph

I think you call this "wavering."

Politico's Amie Parnes e-mails from Obama's visit to the House floor, where he was mobbed instantly.

New York Rep. Yvette Clarke, in theory a Clinton superdelegate, asked him to autograph the cover of today's New York Daily News, with the headling "It's His Party."

Rep. Alcee Hastings, a Clinton supporter from Florida, gave him a big hug. Even Republicans were star-struck. Ileana Ros Lehtinen of Florida crossed the aisle to say hello and brought three children — in town for a school safety patrol trip — with her.

Obama, meanwhile, bowed to Majority Leader Steny Hoyer.

4. I was just thinking what the reception will be with Hillary, as she continues to waste....
...party resources and hurt the Dems' chances in November?

I see Hillary, the longer she continues this delusional effort, greatly harming her political future.

She won't like being treated as a political pariah in the Senate, but she will have earned it.

5. All members of Congress should respect both these candidates.
the irrational hate of Hillary is tearing up the soul of the Dem party.

7. She may not b e overtly disrespected, but the politicians will shun her...
...especially if Dems in the House running for reelection end up losing because of her selfish ego-laden delusions of inevitability.
