22. Eeew!

Tobaccoed snuff!

I think you meant "Skål", but didn't have one of those funny Scandanavian "a" thingies.

:)

[backscatter712]

29. Yeah, that's it.

:P

4. OMG UMA STALKER GUILTY!!!

:evilgrin:

[Tatiana]

7. That's an unflattering picture they used.

I thought she looked very beautiful last night, overall.

[democrattotheend]

8. That's tacky. Please remove it.

This is painful for Clinton supporters and the last thing we want to do is gloat. She will get out when she's ready and it's stupid for us to keep complaining that she doesn't drop out. If she starts attacking Obama again we can complain, but unless and until that happens let's be gracious.

[Stephanie]

9. We've indulged the Clintons long enough.

She needs to get out now for the good of the party.

[asjr]

12. When did you become the Decider?

[Catchawave]

13. What do you mean "we" ?

:shrug:

25. Maybe it's got a frog in its pocket. n/t

32. The good of the party is to NOT antagonize half the base

Hillary can run for as long as she likes. I think most people understand Obama will be the nominee. But, rest assured, if she doesn't run a conciliatory campaign the superdelegates will publicly denounce her and she will be forced out. That's a lose/lose for everyone, as her supporters will likely go with her. What we need to push for now is unity, and Hillary has a chance to help out with that. I've given her a lot of my time and as much money as I could spare - I hope she will do the right thing.

10. Thank you. Can you help show your comrades some fucking GRACE?

[democrattotheend]

14. I'm trying

I've called out a number of ungracious posts. I think there are a bunch of Obama supporters doing that today. A lot of us feel sympathetic and feel that gloating or behaving ungraciously is both wrong and counterproductive. I apologize for those Obama supporters who don't understand that.

[Stephanie]

35. You don't speak for me. When Hillary CONCEDES, and stops trying to KNEECAP our NOMINEE...

THEN I will happily extend any courtesies that are in order, but not until she GIVES IT UP.

[Bensthename]

11. Obama supporters have a right to gloat this morning..

Sorry.. :shrug:

[democrattotheend]

16. This could have very easily gone the other way and been the beginning of the end for Obama

And I can tell you that if that had been the case, any gloating from Clinton supporters would have made me so mad that I might have decided right then and there not to lift a finger to get her elected. Is that what you want?

[Bensthename]

18. You being a sore winner/loser is your issue,

If being excited this morning and gloating a little hurts your feelings then I feel bad for you..
I hope you aren't a sports fan, you couldn't handle it.

[democrattotheend]

21. Who says I'm not excited?

I admit I am a little stunned...I wasn't expecting last night to turn out the way it did. I am excited as hell...I just remember how painful 2004 was for me as a Dean supporter, and I am concerned about alienating Clinton supporters who must be feeling shell-shocked and broken-hearted. Gloating is being a sore winner...I'm trying to be gracious.

[Bensthename]

23. you are right

I do feel bad for the Hill supporters. I'll try to restrain myself a little more today, if I can, lol..

:hide:

[JackORoses]

34. the sky didn't fall after all, did it, tropics_dude jr.?

[Lucky 13]

24. I will go off the offensive when I hear a concession speech.

Until then, game on, gloves off.

[Stephanie]

33. Same here.

She's shown no such courtesies, she's owed none until she starts acting with some grace. Or at least some appreciation of reality.

[JVS]

27. Who cacked and made you miss manners?

[NJmaverick]

15. Stephanie, consider the pledge

[Stephanie]

17. She's got the spinners out now promising she will go on.

When she comes out and congratulates Obama and admits that the math is undeniable, when she hoping he gets hit by a tsunami so she can step into the nom, then I will. But she has to face reality and the reality is she's toast.

[JimGinPA]

19. Morning Joke Has Been Holding It Up All Morning...

Schadenfreude.

[Stephanie]

20. Garin is on now spinning

"Last night strengthened the case that she will be the strongest candidate in November."

Wolfson:

"We need to do well in the upcoming contests... W VA is a key swing state... We need to work with others to ensure that FL and MI are seated... It will be a delegation of 50 states, not 48. We won significant victories in FL & MI... We need to continue making the case that Sen. Clinton is a better match up against McCain than Obama... We won key swing states means we will be a stronger nominee against Mccain in those states... Our proven ability to win blue collar and working class votes suggests Clinton will be the stronger nominee... Obama has not yet proven he can win key swing states & blue collar workers and that will be the crux of the

30. Hey, when she wins Booger Hollow, she'll pick up 3-4 delegates in W Virginie

[workinclasszero]

26. Congratz President Obama!

:toast::beer::party:

[QC]

28. No class whatsoever.

As usual, unfortunately.

[Stephanie]

31. No class is continuing to try to steal the nomination after you've already lost.

She's an embarrassment. She needs to get the message.
