A Message To Clinton Supporters

[berni_mccoy]

I completely understand how you are feeling today. No one knew what was going to happen yesterday and I don't think anyone realistically expected what did happen. I know how I would feel if the tables were turned, and many of you must be pretty disappointed. I just want you to know that we are all still Democrats and that the election isn't over. Anything can happen and I'm not counting on anything but this: We need to have a Democrat as the next President.

I just wanted you to know this Obama supporter stands in solidarity with *all* my fellow Democrats.

Peace.

On edit: I apologize to those who are not disappointed or who predicted yesterday's sweep. It was not my intent to gloat and I'm sorry if this message came across that way. I only meant to acknowledge that the election isn't over and I am not taking anything for granted. It still can be anyone's nomination at this point.

1. I'll bite. Tell us how the Clinton supporters are feeling today

I'll be interested to hear what you have to say, since you forgot to mention that part of your post.

[neutron]

4. This was completely expected, and it's expected she will take the big delegate states

[neutron]

17. you realize if this were reversed

this blog would be wallpapered with Clinton Hate messages.

For this reason alone, I cannot stand Obama.

[totodeinhere]

You can't stand Obama because of the actions of some of his supporters?

If we used that criterion we couldn't support anyone.

[indimuse]

46. I can't stand him...because he's a LIAR!

The TRUTH WILL be revealed. We will LOSE if this FRAUD is allowed to continue((with the MSM's help)) to hood wink America!

[Moh96]

47. Is he?!!!!!!!

who is it that went with the popular vote and supported Bush on Iraq, and simply changed their mind once it became unpopular

[indimuse]

48. where was Obama? In the back of a limo??

While Michelle was pregnant! 1999.and 2001..look it up!

[Kittycat]

50. Wow, look at that - another loser to the ignore list.

[mtnsnake]

19. Yeah, I know that

I also know that berni's post was just the first gloat thread of the day...and for what? Something we all were expecting anyway? Maybe berni is still smarting over CA :evilgrin:

[totodeinhere]

20. Expected by whom?

Most talking heads I have seen on the cable news networks seem to think that the results for both Texas and Ohio are open to question. Yes, Clinton has been ahead there but when he has time to campaign in any one place Obama's numbers always go way up.

[Dogmudgeon]

2. I'm feeling fine. How about you?

:bounce:

--p!

[robbedvoter]

3. Had my breakfast, going to Chinatown for New Years parade with my family

So, wish me ...fun? :shrug:

[neutron]

5. I'm going to make some PHONE CALLS FOR CLINTON

[rodeodance]

27. hey can you start a rally thread for Hillary:

give her website

ect ect
I did one at beginning of week--got good response.
but feel like other supporters can do this also
just a thought

[DemocratSinceBirth]

6. Thank You For Your Support ...You Sir, Are A Gentleman

I saw yesterday coming a mile away...

I expect her to lose every contest this month with the possible exception of today's caucus...

If she can win OH and TX on 3/4 we have a race again... She should also win KY, WV, and PR but nothing is guaranteeed...

It irks me when some on this board compare her to that clown, Ghouliani... He won one fucking delegate...

If I'm Hillary I literally make Texas and Ohio my last stand and I tell the press that and the good people of those two states... It has three benefits- It's the truth...The MSM will say it anway...And it will make those folks feel important... I spend every penny I have in those two states and every day I have campaigning there...I go to every part of Texas and Ohio... I talk to those left behind...

Let's see what Team Clinton is made of...They came back from the dead in New Hampshire..."Prosperity conceals character.Adversity reveals it."

9. We need to make the MSM stop beating up on her

[rodeodance]

7. I am looking to the day when each will be LIMITED to 3 posts/day

[mtnsnake]

8. threads, not posts, rd

but I'm with you. :)

[rodeodance]

16. yes, you are right

[mac2]

34. No free speech eh?

Except if you say the "right" thing.

[rodeodance]

40. I respect the mods to attempting to insert some sanity on this board.

[mdmc]

10. peace and low stress

[Tennessee Gal]

11. Your OP indicates that yesterday was a surprise. It was not.

It was expected.

You should not assume too much.

This ain't over yet.

[Saturday]

13. Exactly Tennessee Gal.

But I'm going to accept berni's comments as heartfelt and accept them. Although I don't feel bad this AM because I expected these results I would feel better if Clinton had won. Anyway thanks berni. I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt.

[mtnsnake]

15. If Hillary wins, maybe berni can let us know how the Obama supporters are feeling the day after

We'll have to look for the post :evilgrin:

[rodeodance]

18. oh- I think OP knew that--all part of the mock tone of the post

[mtnsnake]

22. It doesn't take very much for the Obamaites to gloat, does it

This is so typical of them.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

23. I Thought He Was Being Sincere

I don't like to be played...

[berni_mccoy]

25. No, sorry, i was not trying to mock anyone. I apologize if it came across that way.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

31. If This Was A Football Game Obama Would Be Up By Ten Point With Five Minutes Left In The Fourth

Quarter...

Hillary's best case scenario has to come to fruition... She must win the states she is supposed to win- OH,TX, PN, WV, PR* and KY


*-not a state

[rodeodance]

38. when you come on and say nobody expected this after pundits and polls

said the opposite--and thread after thread saying this--what am i to asssume?
sorry-but i do not believe you

[berni_mccoy]

43. Can you point me to the threads that were predicting this? Because I was on Friday and yesterday

and I didn't see any such threads claiming Obama would sweep this weekend. And everything I've heard to date from MSM/pundits leading into the weekend is that while Obama does better in caucuses, this is going to remain a very close race. That doesn't say "sweep" 3 quite different states as WA, LA and NE.

I'm sorry, but I don't see what anyone was talking about expecting this weekends results.

[rodeodance]

45. I am not going to parse over the word sweep. you can do your own reseach. bye

[berni_mccoy]

49. Show me anything from before yesterday that predicted these results then. I don't think you can.

[mac2]

12. When is Hillary going to stop protecting the secret dictator

and move toward impeachment?

http://citizen.typepad.com/watchdog_blog/presidential_records/index.html

She seems to be part of the problem.

[rodeodance]

21. good for you--you switched to Hillary--smart

[mac2]

26. Where did you get that idea?

Hillary seems to want it all but not hold Bush accountable. She can't do that and still get my vote.

[rodeodance]

29. can't you read--thread says Message to HILLary SUPPORTERS--so SCRAM

[mac2]

32. How about the truth?

[rodeodance]

33. learn to READ--then I might talk to you.

[mac2]

35. Read it.

http://citizen.typepad.com/watchdog_blog/presidential_records/index.html

I am not one of the "sheepel" who just votes as the media and DLC want. Considering Bush has once again done another Signing Statement Congress should be in a uproar. Nope they just let him go wanting us to elect them so they can carry on as before.

Impeach.

[rodeodance]

39. You changed the subject--good Rovian tactic--but I am not biting

[mac2]

42. If these candidates for President can't protect the people's

right to know or Constitutional rights why even consider supporting them?

They aren't being challenged. As a citizen it is your duty to demand it not turn a blind eye.

I ain't biting or believing it.

[rodeodance]

44. I do not need a lecture on duty from you. bye

[Evergreen Emerald]

14. Actually, it was predicted days ago. I think everyone knew

we just keep fighting anyway.

[Tom Rinaldo]

24. I expected Hillary to lose Louisiana by a larger percentage, otherwise

I expected everything that happened last night. One way that Obama's fund raising advantage for January played out was it enabled him to pay for more boots on the ground to help organize turn out in caucus states. I also have another thread up about the special dynamics that seem to effect caucus states.

Having said that I admit that Obama had a great night and that he has run a very successful campaign. While I expected last night to play out like it did, certainly last summer I did not expect this nominating contest to play out the way that it has. And like you I will throw my full support behind whoever wins the Democratic Nomination.

Hillary's strength this year has shown up in large primary contests. Ohio is huge for her, and if anyone gets bragging rights for doing well in a solid Red State whoever wins Texas has a strong claim on that. Same for the winner of PA in regards to key potential swing states that we could lose. There is still a lot ahead of us.

[rodeodance]

30. I read that HIll is headed to TX--prob. already there.

[terrya]

28. I'm perfectly fine.

I'm enjoying a delicious bowl of cereal for breakfast and the coffee is brewing. It's sunny out, but cold. And I'm sitting here talking to you.

Why would I be glum? :-)

[aquarius dawning]

36. I don't know about anyone else, but I feel like digging in and fighting even harder. nt

[rodeodance]

41. YOU BET--~~YES SHE CAN, YES WE CAN~

[bigtree]

37. I feel fine. Looking forward to the upcoming contests which favor Hillary Clinton

in Ohio, Texas, and Pennsylvania.
