Hillary Clinton, projected to win South Dakota's primary but unable to keep Barack Obama from clinching the Democratic nomination, congratulated Obama tonight for the inspiring race he has run and said she was "committed to uniting our party,"

"This has been a long campaign and I will be making no decisions tonight," she said, provoking wild cheers from supporters.

Someone noted last week that she can claim the popular vote, but O’Bomba claims the delegates.

Obama: Selected but not elected. LOL!

If the “tape” exists.....Hillary is using it as a tool in her negotiations with the Obama campaign....I wouldn’t bet on seeing it yet.....but, they better hope the Republican’s do NOT have a copy....

What kind of bargain would Obama make not knowing how many copies of the tape is out there?

Sorry... You can’t leave feedback with out a donation. THAT aint going to happen.

I think she's trolling for the VP spot.

Vice President, and to save government expenses for health care -- Chief Maintenance Mechanic for Air Force One.

NONE....so....the guarantee that there is only ONE would have to be IRON CLAD.....and since “it” hasn’t shown up YET....it could be there is ONLY one (if any.)

Thanks for posting this. I’m laughing as at the end Beckel seems like he’s having a bad case of indigestion.

Funny. Well we shall see soon enough. It’s tomorrow.

“It means an absolutely assured victory for John Mccain.”

How do you figure McCain winning will be a victory?

“Now I am beginning to think a tape exists. Hillary is clearly on the ropes but doesn’t give in? And not too long ago Barry was ticked off about people giving his wife a hardtime, telling people to “ lay off my wife “.
Barry must have heard the rumor of the tape and it would have been a perfect opportunity for him to make an impassioned speech about how his wife loves all mankind, is kind, considerate blah, blah, blah. He could have really worked the speech into a PR bonanza as the gallant husband defending his wife.
But as fa as I know he has not addressed this issue at all. Maybe he is waiting until the tape comes out. “

Obama’s three responses in order by week about his wife:

Week One: This is an unfair attack on my family and my wife’s remarks were taken out of context.

Week Two: I can no more disown my wife....

Week Three: This is not a woman I can call my wife.... This is not who I am....

I have to say this: despite the fact that I have NEVER liked HRC, looked forward to voting for ANYONE against her..

The woman has unbelievable chutzpah and guts.

Of course, so have a hundred other despots in history.

There has to be a reason why she has stayed in this long.

Oh, puh-leeze. Are you one of those people who believes that the government has frozen aliens in Area 51 because there has to be a reason they keep the place secret?

[steve-b]

I surfed there (after checking my anti-virus and anti-spyware systems) to tell her to go away.

The reason is right there in your user name: we've had ENOUGH IDIOCY from the Clintons.

Seventy-six posts before someone chimes in with a moment of sanity.

Some days, this place is worse than the DUmp.

RUSH: You know it is a good question: Why would Hillary Rodham Clinton get out of this race tonight if there is this Michelle Obama bomb of a tape that's going to drop somewhere soon, sometime soon down the line, and of course Ickes and McAuliffe are out there, "She's not going to quit tonight. This AP story is wrong. She will concede the delegates," whatever that means. We will know by virtue of what she says tonight in her speech, we will know if she believes that there is some damaging drop on Michelle (My Belle) Obama to happen sometime soon. I'll tell you something else that gives credence to the rumor, and these kind of rumors, this has been going around for so long, Beckel's right, it's hard to ignore this, it's been out there for so long. They still make me uncomfortable. But when you look, Obama quits his church this past weekend after Father Pfleger goes nuts in there. This could all be part of the timing because they know this thing is going to come to, this tape, whatever it is, Michelle Obama and whitey.

So we'll just have to wait and see. But I think Hillary's speech tonight will give us an indication, because she's been hanging around in this thing for one reason -- well, more than one -- but one of the major reasons she's been hanging around is hoping Obama would screw up or that somebody would have something on Obama that they would drop. The Clintons don't have it. They would have used it by now. So somebody else has it. Supposedly this tape is in the hands of Republican operatives. If it were in the hands of Republican operatives, I would wait and drop this thing after the Democrat convention. I would wait 'til Obama's got it sewed up. So we'll just have to see. Too many unanswered questions about it.

After all the crap and gaffes hes got by with, what ever is on that tape will just slide right off him. His supporters don’t care what Michelle says. Heck, most of them will agree with her.

[torchthemummy]

Yes we do! That Limbaugh is such a clown. What is even worse are the folks who worship his every utterance.

No worse than those who condemn Limbaugh whenever his name is invoked.

Guess what? We know you hate Limbaugh. You've implied it so many times that your dislike shows little possibility for your opinion to invoke any level of fairness. Just because some agree with Limbaugh on this or that issue/perspective doesn't mean they worship him.

Her campaign has arranged for a huge @ss-kissing party tomorrow...all the press is invited to beg her to fight it out to the Convention in Denver. The press is being provided with togas and sandles and a hand-carried carriage to march on Denver carrying the Hildabeast like Cleopatra to the convention to be crowned the winner. Hussein Obama will orate her accomplishments on the way...Howard Dean has spoken unintelligently again!!!

"Obama: Selected but not elected. LOL!"

YES, the Demagogues told us so many times about the eviiiillllls of the Electoral College, and now we see their arcane system allowing the delegate allocation process to override the "count every vote" direct democracy that they were bleating about after 2000.

He also plans on disarming the US.

I almost feel sorry for Bill - no wonder he has such a deep anger - he’s married to a WITCH who WON’T go away.
