« Hillary staying in the race until Puerto Rico is safer for Obama | left's Blog | Hillary's Speech tonight was ELECTRIFYING — Possibly her BEST EVER! »
Perspective: Hillary gives ROUSING speech reaching out to womem, before Mother's Day and best 2 states
The video should be available on CNN.com.
It should be noted that her biggest loss recently has been among women voters.
This should help her immensely both with one of her strongest bases of voters and with fundraising. Moreover, her campaign is expecting very high turnout for her Mother's Day fundraising event this weekend in NYC.
You know, last night, I was really rattled. Those polls really got my hopes up! But today, as I look again at the numbers from the day after PA, I think to myself: We never expected to come close in NC, and a win of 4 delegates in Indiana is less than was predicted—but not much less. A win of 8 or 9% was supposed to only get us about 6!

You're definitely one of my favorite Clinton supporters. You don't focus on tearing Barack Obama down, but instead focus on building your candidate up.

Oh yeah... I saw her during that speech, and I agree... it was very arousing!
MILF!

Yes, it's always great fun watching Clinton supporters grasping, not at straws, but at the strawdust left on the floor after all the straws have been depleted.

C'mon, stay classy! Left is being purely positive here, so why "grackle"?

Yeah man, I agree. The poster isn't tearing anyone down, and Clinton hasn't been negative as of yesterday so there's no need for us to be negative.

'Grackle'?? That's a new one for me! :)
I'd play along if it were satirical - but the poor soul actually means it! I think! :)

We're all serious. Play nice or I'll have to run your ass off.

Lets also stay away from (snarky?) threats, they are no better than personal attacks. Lets all take the high road

Here's a little context on what this "grackling" business is all about:

There are those who question Billy's ornithological knowledge by positing that it's the cowbird that he's thinking of rather than the grackle, but be that as it may, cowbird just doesn't verbify the same way that grackle does.
