Reuters: "Somebody Forgot To Tell Hillary Clinton The Democratic Presidential Race Is Over And Barack Obama Won"

Reuters:

Somebody forgot to tell Hillary Clinton the Democratic presidential race is over and Barack Obama won.

Obama has captured more state contests, more votes and more of the pledged convention delegates who will help decide which Democrat faces Republican Sen. John McCain in November's presidential election.

Who the hell is John Whitesides? Who died and made him boss. To all of you, it ain't over til the fat lady sings. Keep it going Hillary!

[kellygrrrl]

whatever happens, I just hope all True Dems can soon come together. If we don't, I can't imagine why any Independents would come join us.

[FogBelter]

Why does Mr Whitesides even bother? Doesn't he understand that reality means nothing to the Clinton Campaign?

[McSurgent]

Well between Obama and Hillary may the best man or woman win the Dem nomination. We have John McCain and we look forward to the general election.

[ZHarris]

AND the hundred year war...

[GarsLuber]

note the resignation when he mentions the M word - McCain.

[ww]

you guys are just as stupid and hateful as the typical republican crowd. I'm done with ya.

[kevenseven]

You should go over to Taylor Marsh and see how sweet and pleasant Clintonians can be. Oh, and Obamans are not permitted to post over there where they celebrate freedom and democracy. Try it out, I bet you like it.

[DesertLight]

Well, bah! Think Curly Bill Brocius in Tombstone.

[ggmome]

If Clinton continues, with the deceptions, lies and gallow building, she and her campaign have perpetrated, she and her entire campaign, will hang themselves, and the Democratic Party. Just as Bush had done to the 'Republican' party...

What shames her most is, how she has betrayed those of who supported her and Bill during their time of need. If she doesn't see that betrayal as a flaw in her character, how can she and Bill belive that they are worthy of our trust again, with their devisive behavior? A sense of entitlement will only get you what you are actually entitled to......NO­THING!

[VivaZapata]

My friends, I want to thank Senator Clinton for offering her support and staying in the race. My friends, the surge is working.

[patapsco99]

What would you say if there was not one more death in Iraq and the government had 100 years of peace to follow?

[ZHarris]

I'd say, please share what you're smoking...

[flydoghead]

She couldn't hear the news over all the sniper fire.

[IkeChicago]

Heee heee heeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeee

[AnninCA]

And he can't hear registered Dems over the sounds of his surrogates telling Canada and the BBC to "Ignore our campaign rhetoric."

*haha

[rmetz74]

Wow, draggin' out an old (and debunked) one! Desperate times...

[psfurlong356]

Ann, you're sweet, cute and cuddly... I wuv you...

[PhilosophicalPotato]

Dude, you're totally misinformed aren't you? The Canadian government contacted Obama's guy, and even the Canadian guy said that's not what they talked about. Instead it was CLINTON who did it, but they sure gave Obama hell for it, when they were the ones who were actually guilty! That's Rovian politcs at it's worst. Don't believe me?

"OTTAWA (AFP) - US presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton's campaign, while rapping rival Barack Obama for telling US voters he is anti-NAFTA and saying otherwise to Canada, tried to reassure Canada too, local media said Thursday..­.. Brodie told reporters that the Clinton campaign had called the Canadian embassy in Washington to tell officials to take her anti-NAFTA rhetoric "with a grain of salt," said local media."

[VivaZapata]

now that she's been told, will it matter, or will she continue the scorched earth policy to prove she can be demander-in-chief?

[Barbarossa03]

She is going to continue the scorched earth policy in order to set herself up for 2012.

[KatieBeGood]

If she really thinks that, she is delusional. If she destroys Obama and the Democrats lose the election, the Democrats will lay that loss at Hillary's feet. She will then become a pariah and no self-respecting Democrat would ever vote for her in 2012. Also, what does she think Obama will do for the next 4 years. Does she think he will dry up and blow away. Not going to happen.

If Hillary Rove Clinton destroys the Democratic Party and gives a win to the Republicans, she will be responsible for everything the Republicans will do for the next four years. If this country survives another four years of Republican rule, the electorate is not going to thank Hillary Clinton.

[IkeChicago]

Hillary could win twice, she could get the nomination (which ain't going to happen) or she could knee cap Obama so that John McCain could overtake him.

[GrainOSand]

If she is able to knee cap him would that not be a reflection on a 2nd loss for the people?

[kellygrrrl]

she will continue. I don't know how she's going to do it with NO MONEY, but she will definitely continue.

[bkholmes79]

Hillary isn't living in the real world??? ARE YOU KIDDING?? Your cult-like father Barack Obama is flawed and has no chance 0f being elected. His wife's comments, his misguided view of what to do about Iraq and his Militant church have all but ruined him. The 'wacko" left might believe he can win but i guess that's what the huffington post is geared for. The wacko left. THE WAR ISN'T COMING TO AN END ANYTIME SOON. Barack Obama isn't pulling any troops out. Frankly, you're a bunch of dummies if you actually believe this. Oh yea, I forgot if Iraq gets out of control he reserves the right to re-invade. WAKE UP.

[kevenseven]

I am happy to report that you have no clue as to what you speak.

[GrainOSand]

Forgive me for indulging my humor in the previous post. I will attempt to seriously address what you posit from my limited perspective:

cult-like father Barack Obama flawed with no chance of winning
Where is this misconception coming from concerning the supporters of this man. It is the reaction of the fearful.

His wife's comments, his misguided view of what to do about Iraq and his Militant church have all but ruined him
All things you would expect someone to say about the senator if they have no ability to think for themselves. You offer no original thought, your opinion seems like it was fed to you which is scary and sad at the same time.

I could take each of your comments and respond but the tone behind them suggest that you know and cannot be convinced of how much you do not know. I am a dummy because I often say the amount I do not know eclipses that I do. I cannot imagine such a statement coming from one as smart as you.

Love sir not ignorace expressed born of fear sleeping with self-doubt.

[loudspeaker]

Do you have anything concrete or are you an Obama-Benito Bloomberg supporter?

[highlyamused]

Probably people who'd like to vote for Edwards too......a­nd Richardson, Dodd, Kucinich, etc etc. They don't get to........­.so what should we do for them? Force all the candidates to stay in the race in spite of not having a snowballs chance in hell of winning...­.....just so those who want to vote for them can?

[Doggpound]

I'm awake. Still not sure if you are though. Your post is like one of those dreams where you start of naked at work, then end up getting chased by clowns.

[nogimmicks]

you sound nervous, since your burning desires and war prophecies may turn into a stinking pile of garbage. Just give your extremest vote to McCain and leave us alone.

[ZHarris]

Cult like? Because he believes diplomacy offers a better opportunity than war?

Flawed? Aren't we all? Care to be specific?

No chance of being elected? Have you seen the latest polls where Obama beats McCain. Obama has the advantage over Hillary of being able to be more of an alternative to McCain.

His wife's comments? How about Bill's comments? Or the drug stealing McCain dame? How about we stick to what the candidates actually say?

His misguided view of Iraq? How misguided is McCain's support of the war and expecting different results?

His militant church? How about the wacko minister's McCain listens too? How about we stick to what the candidates actually say?

The War isn't coming to an end? Certainly not if McCain gets elected and probably not if Hillary gets in.

Me? I'm voting for the candidate who's willing to use diplomacy and give peace a chance...

[williamg]

Just wait until Hillary releases the tax returns. How many redactions will she have?

[ww]

Somebody forgot to tell Reuters that millions of voters have yet to participate and that neither candidate has the slightest chance of winning the nomination outright. The nomination process isn't even close to being over.

I live in MI. My vote doesn't count at all.

[JMS11302]

Sorry about your vote not counting.

But Hillary signed on for it not to count when she thought she wasn't going to need you!

Now that she can't win, all of a sudden she is all about Michigan & Florida

Doesn't anyone see how self serving that is!

[kevenseven]

82% of the delegates to be won have been selected.

And your complaint is with your legislature and state party leaders, not the DNC or Obama. I'm sorry that your local leaders screwed you. You should really hold them to account.

[Barbarossa03]

Blame the Democratic governor in charge there (and a Clinton supporter) for your delegates not being seated not Obama. Remember ALL candidates agreed to not seating your delegates INCLUDING HILARY. Your vote counted how else we would know that there was 40% uncommitted even with just Hilary on the ticket.

[WebForce1]

That's how Obamanaut logic works. When Hillary was up the process continued. Now that Obama is up and is starting to lose ground they want to end it.
They keep touting his lead in the popular vote, and say things like "the will of the people" but they absolutely refuse to allow Michigan and Florida voters to have a say in the process.
They care about the will of the people as long as it aids Obama. But they have no problem blocking you and millions of other voters on a technicality that wasn't your fault.

[trinity29]

you should be upset with your state government for not having your vote count and no one else. in terms of the people who are yet to vote, under the best possible scenario, hillary cannot win.

[icenzi13]

You women should be ashamed of yourself not standing up for your gender. This is why men rule the world because you let them.

[kellygrrrl]

If Sen Clinton continues to choose to pander to and court the Klan Members over at Fox News, she's going to have a hard time coming back to the Dems.

[kellygrrrl]

Sen Clinton mentioned the other day that "we have a choice about our pastors." Well, does a politician also not have a choice as to which media outlet they choose to be associated with? Why is she using Fox News as her podium? What is her affiliation with this Right Wing Hate Mongering Group? What is the message there? I don't want MY Dem candidate pandering to Fox News or even pretending that they are legitimate.
