Defiant Clinton Women Refuse To Support Obama

High-Class Hillraisers Still Irate About Barack: ‘She Will Be Nominee’

Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild doesn’t look like a radical.

Surrounded by bike paths, ponds and the Atlantic Ocean in her Martha’s Vineyard farmhouse, not far from where Bill and Hillary Clinton usually summer, the lifelong Democrat and Clinton fund-raiser opened a laptop to her “Together4Us” Web site, an online petition that features Hillary Clinton looking luminous above a series of demands made of Barack Obama and the Democratic Party.

Ms. de Rothschild, 54, dressed in matching blue pants and sweater, blond hair tucked behind her ears, said she plans to send copies of the more than 6,000 signatures she has collected to superdelegates, Mr. Obama, his top officials, Howard Dean and officials at the Democratic National Committee, on Aug. 18—the Monday before the Democratic convention....

As I have been saying: there is an opportunity here to bring new voters into the GOP in this particular election that is not typically there. McCain should pick a woman to be V.P. This is a rare opportunity for the GOP - let's avoid the usual do-no-harm, loyal white male pick. I hope McCain seizes this opportunity.

My choice is Sarah Palin.

Not a half-bad idea, as long as she gets along with Mrs. McCain.

A spark of decency may yet be found in the Clintons. Maybe even they see the damage this incompetent and traitorous buffoon would do to the country.

I am very confident that no Hillary supporter would ever vote for MaCain over the DNC’s eventual choice, despite what they currently say.

I disagree. They’re only interested in gaining power again. They’ll do the same thing as Obama. Look at their speeches, she and Obama had few disagreements, and the same goals.

I disagree. Liberalism at its core, is racist. They will see someone of another race and in their minds, assign all the weakness(sic) they have been selling for years to keep them dependent on the government. I believe they may say, to keep up appearances, they voted for him, but when it comes down to brass tacks, they can't be that indoctrinated into racism w/ out it affecting their votes.

The Hilary hags might well swing the election our way.

You may feel confident, but you would be wrong. There is a contingent of women that were for Hillary that are actively campaigning for McCain. I don't have any idea the numbers that will eventually actually vote for McCain, but there will be some.

I have infiltrated a PUMA list and get updates from them and not one are voting for Obama. Matter of fact, they are downright angry at the party for making them choose between Obama, and well, Obama. It is really interesting to see things from the other side. I have told my husband if I start talking weird and say anything in support of Hillary to slap me repeatedly until I wake the hell up. Haha. He has agreed because he won’t live with a Clinton supporter. I have my spy gear on though. haha I saw some of you guys said you are on DU and I could not do that. I would end up with high blood pressure or something. So kudos to those of you who wander over to DU.

They feel not only did she get screwed over, but that the DNC has been so busy shoving Obama down their throat and not caring about the “18 million Hillary supporters” out there.

Yeah, I would say 99% are voting for McCain.

So I say let Obama stay in the race.

“the usual do-no-harm, loyal white male pick.”

I think my cynicism is showing - I initially read an “r” into that last word. Which actually doesn’t change the sentiment much, I guess...

Okay, you’re a better man/woman than I am for even considering that the Clintons might have an ounce of altruism in them...

I think Hillary is going to make a major push to be the Democratic nominee at convention, and I expect dirty politics.
There’s still a major question as to Obama’s birth and whether he’s even Constitutionally qualified to be President - that will come out if it’s not been answered before. The Clinton’s have a long list of dead people behind them - anyone that got in their way or could hurt them.

She sure would be the best-looking VP candidate ever!
