I wonder if HRC had the decency to call Barack privately to apologize to him.
Her apology thus far was weak and aimed at the Kennedys. What about the Obama family? I'm thinking/hoping she would have the decency, knowing how tragic her statement was, to at least call him on the phone and personally apologize to him and his family.

2. Hello? This wasn't about Barack. Michelle has never apologised about her remarks about Hillary And
Edited on Fri May-23-08 07:08 PM by saracat
your point is? I am so tired of Obama being inserted into everything and everything being about him. This was about Bobby and was a time reference , nothing more. Get over yourselves.

4. ??? Her path to the nomination is over Obama's dead body. It's hard to apologize for that.

Edited on Fri May-23-08 07:14 PM by sfexpat2000
She can't call us ALL. This isn't only about the Kennedys or about Obama but about all of us.

8. I hope so- I hope that she will do it again in public even if
she did.

For her own sake-

She is in a very dark place.

peace~

12. Of course not! She can't even congratulate him on a win! She does not have class! She
did not even offer him an apology in public today. She could have said she was sorry if she offended Barack and that her comment was not meant that way or whatever. However, she decides not to. You know why? Because she meant every word she said. I'm sure she wishes she hadn't let it slip but she meant every word.

13. It is an oxymoron for Obama suppiorters to mention "class".
Besides, I remember O supporters saying they didn't appreciate "class" and it wasn't "important" in regard to manners and such. Double standards again,

18. No I do not but the way she has been treated is rephrehensible and as a woman and
a Liberal , I will protest.I am sick of this crap. there are million who support Hillary and they are nor respected at all by the Obama fans. There is no reason for them to vote for this man at all in the fall and they won't. And the nastiness of his supporters will be to blame.

21. You have been threatning not to vote for him
for a long time. You don't like him and you are looking for a reason to justify handing the country to the repukes because you can't deal with the fact that both your candidates lost.

28. Once I discovered what he represented, I didn't like him. .I do not advocate "handing the country to
the repukes but I don't think the elction of Obama is much different than that od a repuke nor do I think not supporting Obama is 'handing the nation to the Repukes. In fact, I suspect that Obama as nomineee will guarantee a McCain win. The nation is not like DU or the primaries. I am more concerned with Congress and the Senate. Those elections will really count.They can put a check on any President. I have always said I would have a tough time voting for Obama.I will NOT vote for Mccain.

33. So you "don't think think the election of Obama is much different than that of a repuke"
Could you please explain why you think Senator Obama is a "repuke"?

Edited on Fri May-23-08 07:38 PM by alteredstate
You keep posting the same negative things --- over and over and over.

I think you've made it clear that you hate Obama and you think John Edwards betrayed you by endorsing Senator Obama.

I think that faced with the possibility of four more years of Republican rule, sane Democrats will vote for the Democratic candidate.

14. She needs to apologize to Michelle and Ethel Kennedy
Michelle is the one who is probably going to have to explain to his dear little girls about this and to Ethel for breaking open old wounds.

20. Her constant inability to apologize sincerely speaks
volumes about her, I think. Reminds me, character-wise, of Bush.

I share your hope, but I'm not too sure it happened.

30. She has absolutely NOTHING to apologize for. This anger is idiotic and I expect RFK's children to
come out and denounce this demagoguery.
