Comments on: Hillary can unite the country… by dropping out now http://opedna.com/2008/02/26/hillary-can-unite-the-country-by-dropping-out-now/ Left-handed, Left-leaning Sat, 17 May 2008 17:29:28 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=MU By: nikolai http://opedna.com/2008/02/26/hillary-can-unite-the-country-by-dropping-out-now/#comment-1223 nikolai Wed, 27 Feb 2008 15:57:22 +0000 http://opedna.wordpress.com/?p=202#comment-1223 Wait a minute... Hillary has NO intention of dropping out, nor should she. My take on things is this; I believe Hillary should stay in to show she will fight to the end, to show dems and repubs alike what she and the democratic party are made of. This also benefits Obama.. With that said, I DON'T believe Hillary should use the Super Delegates to usurp Obama. That would go against Democratic America's wishes, in my opinion. I think Hillary should stay in until it is MORE than clear that the democratic party AND AMERICANS CHOOSE OBAMA. Wait a minute… Hillary has NO intention of dropping out, nor should she.

However, like a lot of other americans i am concerned about the economy problem.

Although as long as she throws in the towel on March 5th I'll be pleased. If she loses Texas, she should quit... I mean what can be the rationale there? Obviously if Obama can pull off wins in Ohio & Rhode Island too she'd have to give in... and that's why I'm pulling for him to upset in those 2 states (along with the landslide he's sure to win in Vermont) .. That would be the final nail... I cant imagine how they could continue the campaign at that point. So.. fingers crossed. Sweep Hillary on March 4th! I agree.

Penn at 7 a.m.: "Ready? Okay here's the plan: You get right out there and scream at Obama. I mean really shriek at him. Daggers darting from your eyes, the whole nine yards. It'll totally work. People will see that real scarey rage and say, 'Damn I wanna vote for that.' Take my word for it. "That'll be $876,448.62, please."

At this point there really isn't any logical reason to unless something shady is working in the background... @3 Exactly I'd like to take a moment to say that pie... is awesome... and I highly recommend that everyone goes out and gets a pie, or bakes one, I don't care what kind of pie is it, whether it be pumpkin, apple, or cherry. I'd also like to say that Obama loves pie, and is also quite fond of cake. @1 Meh, wouldn’t be surprised… would probably blame it on random sources that said Obama’s been pimpin hoes.
