Clinton's speech was exactly as predicted. She will concede this week. Stop acting like babies.

[BzaDem]

She ended the 5 month campaign by giving a nice speech to her supporters. She is clearly going to concede this week, endorse Obama, and start campaigning for him. This speech said exactly what the media said it would say all day. Please stop being so consumed by hatred that you are unable to see what will obviously happen soon.

1. Of course she will. Good luck with that message here.

Here come the long knives from the classy at DU.

[Marrah_G]

2. They are too consumed with hate to see things clearly

[mzteris]

5. "they" who

exactly.

[Rufus T. Firefly]

8. "They" who have sworn to vote for McCain rather than Obama?

[madeline_con]

11. "They" know bullshit when they smell it!

Hey, Teri! :hi:

[The Doctor.]

20. Just like everyone is so 'blinded by hate' they want to impeach Bush... got it.

No, she could never be like Bush. But the point is that the people who are blind are the ones who refuse to see why their candidate is generating such disdain.

Yer girl has been very poorly behaved, and the examples have been laid at the feet of her supporters... but they will not look.
Meanwhile, all the accusations flung at Obama evaporate from complete lack of truth or substance.

It's not 'hatred' dear, it's righteous despise.

[Robbien]

3. And when McCain loses, will you also support him if he doesn't quit

and it takes a week or two to finally stop saying, "but I wanna be president!"?

[HeraldSquare212]

4. You have to remember, people have been saying that for weeks.

[Rufus T. Firefly]

6. Sure.

She hasn't been desperate to do McCain's work for him in advance. They're already using her attacks against Obama.

She could be gracious in defeat, but she refuses. That makes her a loser rather than a runner-up.

Stop acting like she's going to make the right decision for the greater good after weeks and months of helping the GOP against the nominee we knew we'd have in February.

If she does concede this week? Fine. But she has a lot of work to do to fix the damage she has done.

[cynatnite]

7. Some people refuse to see beyond their own hatred...it's sad...

I feel sorry for them.

[Rufus T. Firefly]

10. Your'e right.

I really feel bad for the Clinton supporters who swear they'll vote for McCain, thereby losing the right to choose and continuing the policies of Bush/Cheney. THAT is hatred.

[cynatnite]

14. I haven't seen a Clinton supporter here saying they'll vote for McCain...

but then, DU isn't America...it's just a message board. The real hatred comes from those folks who call people obscene names and say other vile things which seems to be rampant here at DU.

[Donkey_Punch_Dubya]

9. I will bet anyone that she concedes by Friday night

I agree with your OP. I hope people don't freak out that she didn't do it tonight. Would've been nice, though.

[HeraldSquare212]

12. Why must Obama supporters always be so concerned about her?

Why doesn't it ever go the other way?

[Breeze54]

19. They're insecure... even when they're winning.

:eyes:

[Lilith Velkor]

21. Many here only support him because he's not her.

[MonkeyFunk]

22. ain't that the truth?

You have people who support Hagel for VP who think Hillary's "too much like a Republican".

[high density]

13. Didn't she bring in all of her top donors and supporters for that speech?

What a waste of their time.

[cloudythescribbler]

15. as an obama supporter i totally agree with the sentiment of this OP

[Breeze54]

16. Well stated, zlt234! - Thank You for saying it.

:kick: & Recommended

[Starbucks Anarchist]

17. I agree.

[Cali_Democrat]

18. don't hold your breath

[Gore1FL]

23. I am not sure meeting low expectations is a good thing

she had the power tonight to make a big unifying appeal,and it looked as if she was on the very cusp of it, and then went back to low expectations.
