Now is the time to stop
It is time to stop asking questions of people who support Hillary Clinton and to stop insulting those who are genuine in their partisanship. Now is the time to stop berating those who support Hillary Clinton. You cannotchange their minds and either they will either support the Democratic Party or they will be tombstoned (Mods Willing)

Yes, there will be a few who will claim she can still win it until after the Convention and there will be a few die hards who will want her to stand as an independent - in contravention of US electoral law. There will even be some who, when she Hillary announces her support of Barack Obama, will claim it has been bullied out of her. In all events ----

STOP



The noisy few are no longer an impediment to Sen. Obama's progress, just an annoyance, whilst the thoughtful many who have been genuine in their support of Sen. Clinton will turn their attentions to ensuring a Democratic victory come November.

26. Or for those with a low tolerance for bullcrap.
Why are you guys jumping on a thread asking for tolerance? Just asking.

31. Announcing "I can't see you!" is proof of those weak skills.
Like anyone would care?

21. Betcha someone will post another stages-of-grief list in response.

And another, and another.

I'm reassured to find a few "blues" hereabouts.

23. So, as I understand the 'rules'
After Obama is chosen we are not allowed to-

Mention the name Hillary Clinton under any circumstances
Ask anything at all about Obama
Ask for any explanation of his stand on any issue

We must accept at face value whatever Obama says
We may not add anything to his agenda
We may not ask about any issue Obama has not brought up

Is that it? Cause it has to be spelled out clearly what cannot be spoken here at DU.

25. One quibble
I don't believe US electoral law prevents her from running an independent campaign (I am NOT advocating that she do this). She can drop out of the Democratic party and run her own campaign any time she wants to. The reason she won't do this is that it would be a major FAIL.

27. Hillary is a loyal democrat
she would NEVER do that to the democratic party. I was proud of her (again) yesterday after hearing what president dickhead said about Obama and the democrats. We need her voice in this party going forward so cut the shit (if we can) and think of who the true enemy is-not HRC, and NOT Obama
