It would be a shame, because the democraps who have been calling for her to drop out are some of the most pathetic whiners I have ever seen. I mean Christ, their candidate is going to win anyway and they still cry like little bitches about her staying in the race. What the ? Based on this evidence, I find it reasonable to conclude that amongst them the men have less balls than the average eunuch, the women are either named "Bertha" or they ought to be, and the remainder, which constitute a majority, haven't had a bowel movement in approximately twenty years based on how full of they are.
Consequently, it is exceptionally righteous that they be spited to the greatest extent possible short of a repugnican victory. Hillary's continuing campaign would be consistent with this mandate. |

I would vote Bill Clinton as dictator for life if given the opportunity, however in my mind (READ: OPINION), Hilary is a two-face, ambitious, will-say-anything-to-get-a-vote bitch.
How is this different from others, you may ask?
It isn't, but the shameless way with which she conducts herself, and her brazen sloppiness when it comes to the lies she tells are a particularly insulting slap in the face. |

Obama knows how BitTorrent works, and seeds whenever necessary, even if he's already got a good ratio. He knows the importance of teamwork, sharing, and being awesome in general. Hillary, on the other hand, just leeches and, as soon as she finishes her download, bastardly logs off and claims to have done that in order to save the life of a poor Croatian child about to be shot by a Serbian sniper, while her husband was setting up an FTP server. |

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Barack Obama edged closer to capturing the Democratic presidential nomination on Tuesday amid speculation that Hillary Clinton will soon drop her historic White House bid.
The Clinton campaign denied a report that the New York senator would say on Tuesday night -- after final voting in a grueling primary season -- that Obama has the delegates to secure the Democratic nomination.
Clinton campaign chairman Terry McAuliffe told CNN the former first lady was "absolutely not" conceding the campaign and said The Associated Press report was completely incorrect.
"The nomination fight goes on until somebody gets the magic number and that isn't there today and that is not at all what Senator Clinton is going to talk about tonight," McAuliffe said.
Citing two unidentified senior campaign officials, the AP said Clinton, who is trailing Obama in the five-month state-by-state nominating contest, would stop short of suspending or ending her bid to face Republican John McCain in the November general election.
Expectations Clinton is near conceding have been building as Democrats in the final two states -- Montana and South Dakota -- went to the polls. Voting ends in South Dakota at 7 p.m. MDT/9 p.m. EDT (0100 GMT), and in Montana an hour later, with results expected shortly after.
With 31 delegates to the Democrats' August convention at stake, the two states are the last to vote. The party's battle has pitted a man who would be the first U.S. black president against a woman who would be the country's first female chief executive.
Obama needs about 35 delegates to reach the 2,118 required to capture the nomination.
The Illinois senator could hit that number as soon as Tuesday night, depending on how quickly he wins commitments from nearly 200 uncommitted superdelegates -- party officials who are free to back any candidate.
BACKING FOR OBAMA
He secured one important endorsement on Tuesday from U.S. Rep. James Clyburn of South Carolina, the third-ranking Democrat in the U.S. House of Representatives and the top-ranking black member of Congress.
"Today the process ends," Clyburn told NBC's "Today" show.
Clyburn urged other superdelegates to announce their support on Tuesday so the Democratic Party could have a clear nominee by day's end. A number of other superdelegates followed his lead.
Obama planned a victory celebration on Tuesday night to kick off the general election campaign against McCain after the South Dakota and Montana polls close. He will hold it in St. Paul, Minnesota -- the site of the Republican convention in September.
Clinton herself gave no clue about how long she would stay in a nomination race that she began as a heavy favorite but now has little chance of winning.
Campaigning in South Dakota on Monday, she said the end of the voting marked "the beginning of a new phase of the campaign" in which she will seek to convince superdelegates that she would be the strongest candidate against McCain in November.
Both Obama and Clinton will speak to a pro-Israel lobbying group in Washington on Wednesday, and Obama said he expected to be talking to Clinton again soon.
He said he told her in a phone conversation on Sunday that "once the dust settled I was looking forward to meeting with her at a time and place of her choosing."

Hopefully this is just a last minute bluff - I can't imagine it being much more than that. |

Nothing really.
The complaints against her that I have heard from liberals / Democrats basically amount to not liking her personality or image (as "overambitious" or "feminazi" or "bitter old white woman" or whatever) rather than any big issues with her political proposals or beliefs. |
