Hillary Supporters: If the tables were turned the math was flipped, what would you say to Barack?

I haven't been here long enough to make waves but this question as bugged me for months. I don't want to start a fight or a pissing match but I really want to know.

1. That a half term senator from Chicago's Daley political machine
who calls Dem voters racists isn't going to win, regardless of some cranked up "math".

2. More baseless slander. Yawn.
Please show me where Obama called anybody racist. Just once. I dare you.

18. I'm sure it'll be forthcoming....
Seriously, it's getting pretty pathetic for some of you guys, dropping bald faced lies in OPs and posts and not sticking around to defend a single word.

Pathetic with a capital "P".

14. What about a carpetbagging Senator from NY
who should go back to 'baking cookies and having teas', as Hillary so eloquently put it?

25. LOL! Yeah, Obama won't secure the nomination just like your
hysterically funny claim that no one showed up to his Cincinnati rally.

4. Why would they need to say anything?
Barack would have started his pullout way back on Feb 5th, and likely be in Hillary's VP slot now.

7. I gotta agree. Obama would have dropped out after losing 14 in a row, and either taken a VP slot
or returned to the Senate.

10.  Who is Hillary?
Is she that former presidential candidate? Bless her heart.

Remember how competitive of a race it was?

21. ummm ...
I did answer your question, which was, what would I say to Obama, with the presumption that Hillary and Obama would certainly be working on a joint ticket.

Unlike some other people, I don't get all territorial over voters. And, no, I'm not referring specifically to you. :hi:

I was ready to admit he was done after Super Tuesday, but it turns out he was just getting started then.

I would tell him to keep going until the last vote was cast. We live in a democracy and that is how it is supposed to be.

23. I would graciously let him play it out until the end...
because it's been a long, closely contested primary, and he would deserve every chance to finish it out in full.

26. Welcome Ddan!
DU is great fun and highly addicting. Informative too. The best! The answer to your question IMHO (in my humble opinion) is somewhere between a high-tech lynching and a real one.

30. "Please agree to serve as Hillary's VP. We will all support you for the top job in 2016."
Barack Obama will still be only 54 years old in 2016.

Unfortunately, Hillary will be 68 going on 69 ...

after 12 straight losses.
