Although Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton did not win Pennsylvania by huge margins, Armstrong Williams thinks she's staying in the race in order to clear her debt.

You got it DOWN, man! She is taking advantage of the good nature (and ignorance) of her supporters…mostly senior women who cherish the BILL Clinton days (and believed he didn't have sex with that woman)…

'she’s staying in the race in order to clear her debt.'
heaven forbid this loser would use her money to pay her debt. Not a good enough investment for ms cattle futures? After all, why should she pay for damaged goods?

When people who have been on welfare get off assistance they are expected to pay their own bills.
Now the Clintons have been on the government's dole for so long they expect THE PEOPLE to pay their debt even though they have ample cash to do so. Stop begging for cash and write a check, loser.

Her FEC disclosure left out the $ 5 million she loaned herself - it was buried in the back under 'previous campaign'–like the 10 mil she slipped in last Fall.

Not only has the Clinton campaign mismanaged their funds but….The media diagnoses every demo….the old…young…rich….poor…educated….uneducated…. bowlers, gun toters and beer drinkers…..And somehow ALWAYS finds a way to give the advantage to Clinton. But just yesterday, the media finally began to raise the most incredible point in the whole race. HILLARY HAS LOST THE SUPPORT OF AN ENTIRE RACE OF PEOPLE !!!!!!!! Do you know how incredibly sad this fact is ? Hillary Clinton (who's husband was so loved as to have been called The First Black President) has alienated the black people of America to such a degree that there is no way blacks will support her EVER. This has nothing to do with Obama !!!! Keep in mind folks….Hillary started this campaign with 82% of the black support. But as blacks learned more about her (Goldwater Girl….Against Civil Rights Act of '64…etc.) combined with her LBJ statements and Bill's minimizing of Obama (fairy tale…Jesse won S.Carolina too…etc) blacks were shocked…and then incredibly offended by these revelations to a degree that can never be recovered. WE FEEL DECEIVED !!!! We hope that our friends of all races understand how we as blacks feel. This is the main story that needs to get out to the superdelegates. People across America are contacting the DNC 202-863-8000 to let them (and superdelegates) know that Hillary ABSOLUTELY KILLED HER ELECTABILTY. The truth is the truth !

Mrs. Clinton will not bow out of this thing gracefully because she thought that this was going to be HER year to shine. She just still can't believe that Sen. Obama is stealing her thunder and raising all the money. That is why he is being attacked from all sides (especially from the radical right-wing extremists heading up by the unfair & imbalanced FOX News). Armstrong is right on the money by saying that Mrs. Clinton is just trying to "pay her debts" by piggy-backing off her success in Pennsylvania.
While we on there, let me say this real quick: Sen. Obama wasn't going to win PA anyway even after the "bitter" comments surfaced. Those people had their minds made up long before all that. Karl Rove is trying to say that Obama lost PA because of the "bitter" comments. Somebody tell Karl Rove he needs to do his homework. I went to Penn State University years ago and know that those people in rural Central Pennsylvania would vote for Lassie before they vote for a black man as President of the United States.
Once again, Armstrong speaks the truth!

Blacks4Barack.org
(A Multi-Racial Organization…Dedicated To Truth) has got to be a very special Orwellian word combination, something like Racists4RacialEquality or Mysoginists4Feminism.

I agree with Armstrong on this one..The black race is totally and getting more pissed each day because the clintons are minimizing us and she does not even campaign in black areas anymore..She is staying in white rural america and that in of itself will not win her the election period…As for the lady or gentleman making that snide remark about a whitesfor mccain, hell be my guest…In fact it already exist in and off paper. The last statement about only whites can be racists is a stupid remark and unworthy of anyones answer…

Mr Williams…you sound like a sore looser. The statement concerning the amount of $$ Obama raised and spent (3X more than Hillary), only emphasizes his loss, all that $$ and he could not win. Appears that Obama can not close the deal, and is indicative when you have style not backed up by substance. Alot of hot air. Do you think Michelle Obama is still finally proud? and is she just a democrat when her husband is winning? The free pass Obama has been given with the press is also looking pretty bleak.Maybe it is YOU and Obama who should pick up your toys and go home.

Anybody voting for old Hillary,has got to be out of their mind! Afterall her and OLD Bill were the ones who brought us FREE TRADE, That was daddy Bushes idea,and old Bill sucked it up like a sponge,then the Shrub gave away the store….Time to get rid of these money and power hungry parasites!She is nothing but a glorified REPUBLICAN in disguise. As long as people like this are running the country we are going to be picking crap with the chickens. Fool me once, but not twice!

My reaction when I read the comments of so many HRC supporters is; "Am I in an echo chamber here, or what?"
What would HRC's ardent supporters do if they could not regurgitate the same tired logic-mangled absurdites spewed forth daily by the Clinton team calling their pig of a woefully mis-managed campaign, and their candidate with stratospheric general election unfavorables; a prancing, "virtually unbeatable" championship stallion?
Barack Obama is offering a bright new array of ideas and plainly visible skills for changing the whole of our national political discourse for the better… and HRC's mawkishly cloned identity-based middle-aged robo-fems, call him "an empty suit".
Yeah, and that BIG cement mixer bearing down on your "March of 'It's OUR Turn' Righteousness" is a mere illusion also.
Give my regards to St. Peter as you pass by, won't you?

The news should highlight
HILLARY HAS LOST THE ENTIRE BLACK VOTE….FOREVER !!!
This is the message currently being sent by blacks to the DNC in great numbers (and the superdelegates). There is no way Hillary will defeat McCain without the support of Black America aka the guaranteed Democratic vote. Please read Huffington Posts story on how the Hillary Camp has been feeding Obama attacks TO THE GOP !!!!! What a traitor to the Democratic Party !!!!!!!! Hillary started out with 82% of the black support. But as Blacks learned more about her (Goldwater Girl…Against Civil Rights Act '64….It was LBJ…Not MLK….etc) combined with Bill's (…fairy tale….Jessie Won S.C. too…etc.)…blacks were shocked beyond repair. (remember….we luved Bill so much we called him 'The First Black President')….but never again….WHERE'S THAT STORY. And if the DNC thinks…..'ohhhhhh….the blacks will be angry at first…but they'll come around'…..then they don't know the severity of what the Clinton's have done….This has nothing to do with Obama !!!! We (blacks) have awakened to the truth about the Clintons……and with more exposure like today's Huff story re: Hill's feeding the GOP Obama smears…our friends of ALL races will awaken soon !!!!!!!!!…THAT'S THE REAL STORY !!!!

p.s. Blacks4Barack.org was started in Feb. 2007 (by Greg Jones) because of the fact that VERY few blacks were for Obama at that time…..they were ALL for Hillary !!!!! We knew that Obama was the best person to run our country and bring our troops home and that is why we started our grassroots organization with a mission to increase black voter registration and to invigorate support for Obama. (Not because he's black…but because he's most qualified) The more black voters learned about Obama…the more they liked him….and the more they learned about the Clintons….the angrier they got !!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are appreciative of our friends of ALL races….who are working together….for the very best candidate….to put America on the right track…..Barack Obama ! THANK YOU !
