Not. She stated today that she isn't going anywhere until there is a nominee.

Yeah. The McGovern thing is certainly nice but doesn't necessarily mean much.

(In the earlier account I saw, he said that he hadn't told them yet -- that he planned to call Bill later -- but that he was sure they'd remain good friends. Hmm. We'll see.)

^ Yeah, slightly misleading headlines. The "George McGovern urges" would not fit. The title line was too long. :wink:

Any how, McGovern said:

Quote:
Senator McGovern had been a high profile Hillary Clinton supporter but today he insisted that she had virtually no chance of winning.


Hillary has zero chance. There is no doubt that she'll give up. I'm thinking ahead for her, without getting paid. Smile

Why would she loan her campaign another 6M?

$6.4M (AP) - WASHINGTON Barack Obama pocketed the support of at least four Democratic convention superdelegates on Wednesday, building on the momentum from a convincing North Carolina primary victory. Rival Hillary Rodham Clinton disclosed she had loaned her strapped campaign an additional $6.4 million in recent weeks.

Clinton showed no sign of surrender in the presidential race, but former Sen. George McGovern, the party's 1972 presidential candidate, urged her to reconsider.

It has cost Hillary Clinton a fortune and tested her tenacity: now the end is nigh

Hillary Clinton was left clinging to a cliff-edge today, with a senior ally reading the death rites over her presidential bid as the campaign confirmed she has now staked much of her personal fortune on keeping it alive.

Barack Obama's resounding 14-point victory in North Carolina on last night effectively ended her lingering chances of achieving a "game-changing" result that would have cut into his three-figure lead among elected delegates for the Democratic nomination.

Please stop this imbecilic gloating!

The goal is to put a Democrat in the White House... this is far more important than this silly need to humiliate nearly half of the people whose votes Obama is counting on in November.

Or are you deliberately trying to open deeper wounds in the Democratic party as a cynical way ensure that McCain wins?

Your behavior is not only childish and hateful, it has the potential of damaging the country with a McCain presidency.

Is that really what you want?

Rumor has it Osamabama has an extermination plan in place for Hillary supporters and her delegates if she refused to endorse him.

Of course, Hillary has one for Obama supporters as well. Put a "Vince" on them.

Yeah, I don't mind having McCain as President. I've never witnessed a U.S Presidential assassination. I think it'd be exciting.
