Comments on: Bush Congratulates Obama On Securing The Nomination http://donklephant.com/2008/06/04/bush-congratulates-obama-on-securing-the-nomination/ Big Teeth. Huge Ass. Surprisingly Reasonable. Sun, 08 Nov 2009 23:59:03 -0800 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Nichol Draper http://donklephant.com/2008/06/04/bush-congratulates-obama-on-securing-the-nomination/comment-page-1/#comment-409037 Nichol Draper Thu, 05 Jun 2008 04:26:11 +0000 http://donklephant.com/?p=5897#comment-409037 When JFK won a suspiciously close race, Richard Nixon conceded graciously. Mitt Romney conceded when it was obvious he wouldn't win and has been raising money for John Mccain. The Bushes have included Bill Clinton in numerous events. If Al Gore had the class of Richard Nixon, he may have become president after Bushes first term. Hillary Clinton should have conceded three months ago and been campaigning for Obama. Thank goodness for Obama, there is finally a democratic candidate that will know to bring a Tux to France. When JFK won a suspiciously close race, Richard Nixon conceded graciously.

None of the money she receives will be used to help Democrats win in November; it will just be used to pay off her massive debt. Hillary does not need to be rescued from debt, as Bill and her have the ability to make $25 million+ each year just from making speeches and writing books.

Absent very large upsets in every state, the math has pointed to Obama being the winner for almost 3 months. The math was clear a week ago...Clinton had no way to catch up to Obama and the momentum was going his way to capture the uncommitted superdelegates, who were unlikely to vote against their constituents. Its a very simple political calculation, and it speaks volumes that the Republicans figured out who would be the nominee before the Democrats did. It isn’t odd.

I guess she wants to be the Nader of '08 with Nader of '08. Never. Never. Never give up. Is what Churchill said during the war to a graduating class. She says it after the battle/war is over. I also guess she is a true Clintonista and Not a Democrat. Cause People don't give up, sort of like Bush won't give up on Iraq, she won't give up on campaigning. Forever Campaign!!!

Wouldn't leaving them with false hope increase the chances that they'd donate, though? “She certainly wasn’t very clear, and people on her forums are still screaming that she still has a chance.”

When the other candidates dropped out, they made it clear that they were keeping their websites and mailing lists up merely for the purposes of retiring their dept and asked supporters to continue to donate for that reason. She certainly wasn't very clear, and people on her forums are still screaming that she still has a chance. If it’s a last fundraising push to clear debt she wants, she should say that.

The whole thing seems like she wants one last fund raising push while its still allowed, to try and erase those personal loans. I'm surprised people haven't been saying this, to be frank.
