24. Shouldn't FOX have to run a disclaimer as a Hillary donor?
Rupert Murdoch not only gave a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton in 2006 raising $60,000 for her campaign, he and his son personally donated to her campaign.

Hillary defended Rupert's fundraiser to the London Financial Times saying "He's my constituent and I'm very gratified that he thinks I'm doing a good job."

Shouldn't FOX noise have to run a disclaimer as a Hillary Clinton donor? Why are the Clintons now thisclose to Mellon Scaife, Murdoch, Limbaugh and Drudge???

:hurts: Something smells...

21. this kind of poll
22% of Democrats Want Clinton to Drop Out; 22% Say Obama Should Withdraw


Twenty-two percent (22%) of Democratic voters nationwide say that Hillary Clinton should drop out of the race for the Democratic Presidential nomination. However, the latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that an identical number—22%--say that Barack Obama should drop out.

A solid majority of Democrats, 62%, aren’t ready for either candidate to leave the race. Nationally, Clinton and Obama are running essentially even among Likely Democratic Primary Voters in the Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll.

Forty-seven percent (47%) of Obama supporters think Clinton should drop out. Thirty-eight percent (38%) of Clinton supporters say Obama should drop out. Those who remain undecided are a bit more likely to suggest that Obama should leave. But, it’s worth noting that less than half of Obama supporters say Clinton should withdraw, less than half of Clinton supporters say Obama should withdraw, and less than half of undecided voters say either should withdraw at this time.

23. Except that
It's a joke to ask Obama to drop out with his insurmountable elected delegate lead and large popular vote lead. That's just bitter Clinton supporters who want her to win the nomination at *any* cost.

They're willing to play the role of spoiler at this point, and it's pathetic.

7. Too bad Greta
Should've played back the video from months ago where she said Michigan and Florida doesn't count. It only was important to her when it was going to help her. With Hillary it's all about "me" and Obama is all about "we"

9. Nucking Futz or a liar.
Obama is not at fault for Michigan and Florida's primary
problems that is pure bull shit and pledged delegates
mean they are pledged to one person. Just like Hillary
signed a pledge not to run in MI & FL.

BTW she is on Fox & talking to Richard Mellon Scaife, now?

14. No, but seriously...
Even if you're a Hillary supporter, how do you watch this interview and not do one, some or all of the following:

-cringe
-throw up
-become incredibly embarrassed/ashamed

Am I exaggerating? Maybe, but not by much. She sure does seem willing to turn the party into the Titanic if she doesn't get her shot at steering the ship.

15. Completely Pathetic
Hillary blames Obama as the sole reason why Michigan and Florida haven't been counted; Greta just lets her go on without challenging her.

Invited on Faux news to try to denigrate the front-runner in her own party and not taken to task because they want her to destroy the party (or at least the party's chances of winning the presidency). I'm starting to buy the pyrrhic victory line--although I'm sure Democratic supporters will not soon forget...

28. Rules what rules?
Harold Ickes, a Sen Clinton supporter, voted in August to strip Florida and Michigan of their delegates as a sitting member of the Rules and Bylaws Commission of the DNC. All candidates signed agreements that they ALL understood the rules; with the understanding that FL & MI would have none of their delegates seated.

29. SLICK HILLY STRIKES AGAIN !!
Yet ANOTHER rendition of the MI/FL delegate LIE. Obama has said time and time and time again that he supports a FAIR, DNC-certified means of seating the MI and FL delegates. For SLICK HILLY to continue to try to use this issue to some advantage is one more reason she should be VOTED DOWN !! This person will say or do ANYTHING for POWER and CONTROL. That is what obviously drives this person. Not ethics. Not any conception of a standard of decency. No. Just POWER and CONTROL.
MI and FL VOLUNTEERED to break the rules in order to jump the primary schedule. SLICK HILLY was the only candidate to leave her name on the ballot in MI, and she did a SLICK under-the-radar campaign in FL then flew in for a "victory" speech there. Don't worry. There are ways to seat delegations from MI and FL. It will happen. Obama supports it done in a FAIR way according to party rules. SLICK HILLY NEEDS TO STOP HER SLIMY, STINKING, ROTTEN, LAUNDREY LIST OF LIES !!

31. Hillary is putting her own interests above those of the Democratic
Party and the Democratic voters. The Michigan and Florida parties knew the rules, knew the consequences that would occur if they broke them and decided to break them anyway. Democrats across America would have liked to have been the first to vote. Only Michigan and Florida broke the rules.

If grabs the nomination by creating a controversy at the convention or by forcing the Party to accept the Michigan and Florida delegates, she will harm the chances of the party in the November elections much worse than if she just plays by the rules and accepts what the national party has decided. Hillary's stance is completely out of line.

It is time for Hillary to step aside and allow the process to proceed without her. Edwards had the courage and grace to step aside as did Richardson, Kucinich, Biden and Dodd. Hillary should read the handwriting on the wall and say thank you but goodbye. She is just making enemies at this point.

Even if Obama's church proves such a huge problem that he too has to step down, Hillary will not be the compromise candidate. Her campaign has been so strident, so ugly. She has alienated too many voters to win in November. Hillary is crushing the party. I am seeing a nasty, willful side of her that scares me. Hillary thinks she is acting with strength, but in fact she is acting like an authoritarian. I do not want another authoritarian president, and I don't think that the rest of the Democratic Party does either.
