Hillary, drop out! Sign the petition!
I have seen enough. All of the pundits, liberal, conservative, man, woman, black, or white say the same thing: It is nearly impossible for Hillary Clinton to catch up in the delegate count! To me that says, "It's time to bow out!" If we Democrats want to win in November Hillary Clinton has got to step aside, and clear the stage for Barack Obama to prepare to beat John McCain in the fall! Step aside Hillary, step aside!

I've always known that the Clinton's would do anything to win an election. They have slashed their way to the top, and they think they can do it again. We have a month until the "deciding primary" that is Pennsylvania. If Hillary keeps up this charade, she will not bring herself an inch closer to the presidency, but she will move the finish line further and further away from Sen. Barack Obama! Her lies, exaggerations, low-blows, and cheap-shots, have hurt the Democratic Party, but does she care, absolutely not. The time has come for the Democratic big-foots to step in and stop the madness. I call on everyone from Al Gore, to Howard Dean, and from Nancy Pelosi to Harry Reid to convince Hillary Clinton to take the high-road and bow out.

Logistically, the numbers are stacked up against her. One statistician, and political pundit puts her chances of capturing the nomination alone at just 5%. It would do our party, and our nation well for her to step aside!

If you agree, I urger you to join a national movement and sign the petition! The link is seen below!

1. Oh please!
Since only 22% of Dems want her to drop out, your petition is worthless.

4. Never
You are out of your mind. Why should she drop out? Half of the party wants her to be the nominee. If you do not want to support her that is fine but to demand she drop out because you want the race to end is just silly.

She should only drop out if her supporters ask her to. We want her to remain in the race so live with it. Other states have a right vote on who should be the nominee. She may win but she has every right to run and make her case to the voters. What you suggest is undemocratic and unamerican. It is my opinion that if Senator Obama is the nominee, he may lose all 50 states. Nevertheless, I have no problem with his lame ass staying in the race. Neither should withdraw. It is like ending the game with time on the clock.

5. This is a 50 Plus round fight and there are still 10 plus rounds to
go and you wanna stop the fight? That would be so wrong. HRC is behind on the score card at the moment but is that the reason you wanna stop the fight? cause obama is ahead? Lets let em go for it all and see what happens and then allow the judges to decide this title bout......

20. Bad analogy
If the winner had to immediately enter the ring with the next boxer after this fight was over, would you still want your guy to go 50 rounds if he didn't have to?

9. How can you do that? She needs to do this on her own.
She has every right to contest in the remaining states.

18. I think BO should drop out and spend
more time in Wright's church listening to one of his wonderful sermons. And, just think....he could start smoking again!

14. We are going to need
Al Gore, Jimmy Carter, Nancy Pelosi, Howard Dean, and Harry Reid to all at once tell her its over...one phone call after the other. Maybe even a few face to face sit downs and than maybe...just maybe she might give up.
