FTA:
The Illinois senator peeled off an affiliate of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, which has endorsed Clinton. The Philadelphia-based local of the National Union of Hospital and Health Care Employees has about 16,000 members.
Its president, Henry Nicholas, announced the endorsement while introducing Obama at a meeting of the Pennsylvania AFL-CIO.
All the people who thought Pa was a sure thing for Hillary may be wrong after all.

"I just wish it was over. It's poor sportsmanship for Hilary to drag this out."
I'm certain had Obama secured the delegates necessary to win the nomination, Hillary would have bowed out. But, simple fact is, he hasn't.
No one complained about Huckabee sticking around to challenge McCain when he hadn't a chance in Hell of winning the nomination and the last real rival, Romney, bowed out.
Perhaps in the future, Democrats will change their stupid caucus/primary system. Face it: It all comes down to the "super delegates."

I would have been if had had stayed in much longer after the southern states had voted, since they were more his demographic. But it was right after that he bowed out gracefully.

If she doesn't win big in PA it will be over. Well maybe knowing her she will come up with another reason why she should still be in the race. I have to tell you this race has changed my feelings about the Clinton's if she wins i will vote for her because i think it's silly to spite myself and my country by letting another GOPer win! But my love fest with the Clinton's are over. They are what others say they are!

Too much is made of the damage Hillary does by staying in the race. She is heloping to vett (what does that mean, anyway) Obama, so that by the time it's general election time, his negatives have been dealt with and are old news (sort of like the continued jabs of the anioklys on these boards).

I only hope, by the time September roles around, that Hillary and the Republican's competition to out do the Obama did this and Obama said that bulltwinkies will have served to blow the collective wad of abuse thus leaving McCain the sputtering old nincumpoop that he is, with nothing to say other than schoolyard epithets, alone, wondering why only the losers are hanging out with him.

Also FTA:
"I did speak out and oppose NAFTA," she said. "I raised a big yellow flag and said, 'I don't think this will work.'"
Teamsters president James P. Hoffa, who is backing Obama, disputed her claim.
"No one who was around in the time of NAFTA remembers her doing that," Hoffa told The Associated Press during a telephone interview. "Let's face it, she's tied to NAFTA no matter what she says."
She is being called on her lies! I love this, i hate a liar.

True.
NAFTA was one of Bill's big deals.
It turned out to be one way to sell out American jobs via out-sourcing and compromised basic National Security and local Social Services monies because of the rampant & almost unchallenged movement of illegal aliens across the Southern border from Mexico.
Well Hillary is a liar but to me all politicians lie to suit their purposes' at any given time. So I guess, if you want to participate in US politics at any level, it comes down to supporting which politician you believe tells the 'least number' of lies and/or the 'least dangerous' lies.
An' lets face it, Billy Boy's whole 'game' while President was all about the most effective or deceptive lie he could get away with. Interesting how that is sticking to Hillary now.

NAFTA has been a bipartisan fleecing of Americans jobs and manufacturing capacity.

Better start hating Obama as well. He's been caught many times over. Rezko, NAFTA, Pastor Wright: Obama caught in lies at every turn.

LIBS:
"Obama caught in lies at every turn."
How so?
You mention Rezko, but Obama is NOT under investigation in the Rezko trial and you have ZERO evidence of a quid pro quo relationship. On the other hand, McCain HAS been investigated for corruption as a member of the Keating 5.
You mention NAFTA without any specifics yet it is McCain who "doesn't understand economics."

"McCain's NAFTA Remarks Flunk National Security Test"
You mention Pastor Wright, whose incendiary rhetoric Obama has already distanced himself from, while conveniently ignoring (1) the fact you have ZERO direct racist quotes from Obama's mouth (2) the presence of direct racist quotes from McCain's mouth, and (3) the bigotry of your own Christian conservative pastors who endorse Republican candidates, like Bob Jones, Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, John Hagee, etc.
The only one lying here is you--about Obama's record.
