I hope that she would be able to calm the nerves of her supporters and convince them that unity should be their priority to back up Obama and Biden or else the party wouldn't stand a chance against the GOP.

Go Hillary--I'll vote for Barak but I wish you would have made it. You could have done so much for the country!! I'll be watching tonight--a big thanks to you Hillary!

Joe Biden is the man that has implemented many
of the unfair, unconstitutional due process violations against fathers regarding child support
with his sponsored bills making said changes.
No longer do dads get their day in court with
the appointment of an attorney or any due process
right protections.
His Violence Against Women Act is anti male, anti
father, anti family as suspicions and allegations
can cause dads to be jailed, lose their home and
their children immediately.

Of course, Obama blames dads for a multitude of
sins....Irregardless of the fact that 99 percent
of all gang members are from fatherless homes,
80 percent of men in prison come from fatherless homes. The judicial system does everything
it can to deny father's their parental rights.

VOTE NO TO JOE AND O...

Maybe McCain is the lesser of two evils, truelly
a third choice would be better.

It would be nice if she said what she really felt about Obama! Won't happen, but it would be nice... He played the race card, as he is doing against McCain, he is playing the "Name" card because of his name, he is playing "VICTIM" in every way he can to earn votes. Where is his "Plan" for change? He cries I am the man of change, yet what is the "Plan" of change? Picking a Senator of 36 years in Washington for major change? That is change? Sounds like more of the same to me? You Go Girl!!! Tell The DNC The Truth About How You Feel, you got submarined by the national media, by Obama, by your own Party! Then snubbed as the VP when you were the OBVIOUS BEST CHOICE WITHOUT QUESTION!!! And I am A Conservative Republican! Obama just handed the Presidency to McCain if he doesn't screw it up himself. McCain-Romney will nail it down!

Ryan...are you on something? Why are you thanking Hillary for the huge damage she and Bill have done to the country? Her hypocrisy and deviousness is not longer astounding because the people have finally caught on to her as a really bad person.

Hillary is fantastic. She can have my vote any day. I have only voted Republican one time on the national ballot and that was a mistake.

Obama showed quite a bit of arrogance and disrespect to Senator Clinton when he disregarded the will of 18,000,000 Democratic voters and chose Joe Biden as his running mate.

Many are having a tough time getting over that!
Go Hillary | 12:55 p.m. Aug. 26, 2008
Out the door, out of the spotlight, out of our lives.

My name is average American and I approved this message.

Thank goodness she did NOT make the ballot. Obama is still freakin evil, but Hilary's worse.

I think, if you saw Teddy Kennedy last night, it should be clear there's a national role for Hillary in the Senate that can be enduring.

It isn't necessary to be in the White House for 4 or 8 years to be effective. ...tho Bush has certainly used it to wreck havoc over the last 8. =o

I hope to never hear her name again after tonight. I can not tell you strongly enough how glad I am that she is out of the picture. The Clinton's together are one of the worst things to ever happen to this country.

God bless her. Wish her well, now please retire and leave US alone.

Father's Beware Sokel: Irregardless is not a word in the English language. It's just "regardless".

I love Hillary... I will not be voting for Obama... not drinking the kool-aid. I'll write Hillary's name in on the ballot.

Kennedy looked better last night than before the surgery!
Sokol | 2:50 p.m. Aug. 26, 2008
Hmmmm....Is that what they call looking at form
over substance, regardless, beware of Biden dads?
Step Moms, Second Wives, Aunties, Grandmothers of
these fathers...Remember money apparently is more
important than equitable enforcement of father's
parental time. When did we become this oppressive?
Under Joe Biden and George W. Bush, Bill Clinton...
Look at his record of hurting fathers.

This is where Romney's timely drop-out makes the difference. I believe Romney's supporters are all almost fully behind McCain(especially if Romney is the VP). But Hillary voters(like above) will not voted for their party's candidate. I would argue if Hillary had dropped out when it was over there would have been a lot less blood and Obama could have quite the lead on McCain.
The DNC is just a big let down. I think every independent to liberal has a desire to vote for Obama, he's young, energetic and appears genuine, but Obama is not giving them that "fire". In 2004 the DNC avoided talking about the other side, and focussed on Kerry, that didn't work for them, but I think it would now. Obama could be a JFK of sorts(not that that's good or anything). But Obama could definetely be doing better.

I love these people who come on here saying how bad the Clintons were for America. What was so bad? The thriving economy? The crime rate that dropped every year? The unemployment rate that dropped every year Bill was in office? $1.25 gas? Affordable groceries? My god the man's approval rating was still 60-something percent during the impeachment festivities...TWICE Bush's rating of the past couple years!

I would rather be an athletic supporter than a clinton supporter. Pun intended. Go Cougars!!

Obama has been critical of absent fathers, not of fathers who are doing what they are supposed to be doing.

As I sit here and watch the DNC, I still see a party divided. Hilary will be bitting her tongue all night in an effort to not say the wrong thing. I would advise her to simply say it as it is to the DNC and call it a night. Let her delgates make their own decision and get off the stage. Obama speaks of change and the one thing that keeps bothering more and more is what is his definition of change? I have no more idea of what his ideas are on change than the day he started. Joe Biden is not a poster boy for change. He has the experience of being in Washington for many years. I do not hold this against him as he will add a dimension of depth to this party. But Obama and the DNC need to define what change they are talking about and how do they intend to make this change. I still don't have an idea as to how Obama will do the things he has said he wants to change. He started off on wanting to pull the troops back and then changed his story. What's next?
