Hillary Clinton to make major speech on Tuesday

It seems this is the end of the road for Ma. Clinton.

Reports internet-wide indicate that as of Monday, Clinton campaign Clinton Endorse Obama?staffers are being urged by the campaign’s finance department to turn in their outstanding expense receipts by the end of the week, an indication that the campaign wants to get its affairs in order and to initiate an end to the 15 month duel with Obama.

The campaign is in debt to the tune of about $11 million.

Some other reports indicate the opposite: ABC News’ Kate Snow and Eloise Harper report that Clinton spokesperson Mo Elleithee came to the back of the press plane as Clinton flew from Rapid City to Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and said: “I think its pretty clear that she is not conceding.” “I think its pretty clear that she is staying in this race. She is going, in the coming days, to be aggressively courting uncommitted superdelegates aggressively courting unpledged delegates, making the case to them that she is a candidate best ready to take on John McCain.”

When asked directly when Clinton will step aside, Elietthee told the reporters, “as she has said dozens and dozens of times she is in this race until we have a nominee…Until there is a nominee she is going to try to win support.” ….[MORE]

Meanwhile Obama told reporters that he spoke by phone with Clinton on Sunday, and that he congratulated her on winning Puerto Rico and apologized for the controversial remarks made by Father Michael Pfleger while speaking at his former church.

I emphasized to her what an extraordinary race that she’s run and said that there aren’t too many people who understand exactly how hard she’s been working. I’m one of ‘em because she and I have been on this same journey together, and told her that once the dust settled I was looking forward to meeting with her at a time and place of her choosing. We’ve still got two more contests to go and I’m sure that there will be further conversations after Tuesday,” said Obama. ….[MORE]

On Tuesday night Obama will deliver a speech in in St. Paul, Minnesota — the site of the Republican National Convention that will nominate Arizona Sen. McCain in September.

Minnesota is an important battleground state,” said Obama spokeswoman Jen Psaki. “The McCain campaign has made it clear they will compete there aggressively. We will too.”

Meanwhile “Slick Willy” is still in Attack-Mode: Bill Clinton exploded in response to this article “The Comeback Id,” by Todd Purdum of Vanity Fair.

He called the author “sleazy,” “dishonest,” “slimy” and a “scumbag!”

Finally, Ted Kennedy had what what his doctors termed a “successful” surgery to remove “most” of the cancerous tumor in his brain. The ‘Liberal Lion‘ suffered a seizure at his home in Hyannis Port, Mass. about two weeks ago, and was rushed by helicopter to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston where doctors diagnosed brain cancer.

Good Luck Ted!

Hillary Clinton Outrage: Invokes RFK Assassination

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


Hillary Clinton is showing “a little desperation” according to Governor David Paterson.

Paterson made that comment Thursday, in reference to Senator Clinton’s quest for delegates from Florida and Michigan whom her party has discounted because the states held their primaries too early.” — Quotation from Fox23News.Com

Gov, David Paterson, a superdelegate pledged to Hillary, is dismayed by her desperate tactics that are undermining the democratic process.

Most Democrats want Hillary to stay in the race until the end of the primaries, but only if she refrains from attacking Obama and ceases to try to change the rules to benefit her.

Hillary’s acts of desperation aren’t winning her the support of the superdelegates, in the last few weeks she’s managed to garner the support of very few of these party officials.

Today Hillary proved that Paterson was not exaggerating when he referred to her as desperate:

“Sen. Hillary Clinton referred Friday to the assassination of Robert Kennedy in 1968 Democratic campaign as a reason she should continue to campaign despite increasingly long odds.

Clinton was responding to a question from the Sioux Falls Argus Leader editorial board about calls for her to drop out of the race.

‘My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. You know I just, I don’t understand it,’ she said, dismissing the idea of dropping out” — Quotation from the Associated Press

Hilary is disingenuous when she mentions that her husband didn’t wrap up the nomination until June 1992. Technically she’s telling the truth, but what she fails to mention is that by that time all the major contenders had dropped out and her husband was facing only token opposition.

Hillary is desperate when she invokes the assassination of Robert Kennedy. Why conjure up loaded word when her opponent has an excellent chance of becoming the first African American President of the United States?

To invoke the assassination of Robert Kennedy at a time when Sen. Ted Kennedy is battling for his life is reprehensible.

“Hillary Clinton said Friday she regretted comments that evoked the June 1968 assassination of Robert Kennedy as part of her explanation for why she was staying in the presidential race late into the primary season.

“Earlier today, I was discussing the Democratic primary history and in the course of that discussion mentioned the campaigns that both my husband and Senator Kennedy waged in California in June in 1992 and 1968, and I was referencing those to make the point that we have had nominating primary contests that go into June. That’s an historic fact,” she told reporters. — Quotation from The St. Louis American

Even if we accept Hillary’s half-hearted apology, the damage has been done and let’s hope that she hasn’t given a nut an idea about killing Obama.

Listen Hillary: It’s over. Damn it, it’s over. A meteorite isn’t going to fall on Obama, get out of the race before you further stain your legacy.
