A person who given an inch demands a yard is best dealt with by the foot. I vote for nationwide application of that principle.

Chinu, I am not sure what you are saying here in response to what I have posted so I will respond to this segment here. <<Here is what aptlly fits Hillary and her behavior as a sore loser: A person who given an inch demands a yard is best dealt with by the foot. She has to be careful what she does after June 3rd.>> I don't see her being a sore loser although I can see how Obama's supporters can see it that way. If she is following the rules in how she is asking, does she have a right to ask for the things she is asking for? And the DNC has the right to say no or to make the judgement that is in the best interest of the party. Also interesting that all this speculation about what Clinton wants to do is being thrown about as fact when all it is is pure speculation. Is she angling for something? Probably. With the support she has garnered in this process, she is deserving of a modicum of respect from the party in what she has done. But why doesn't everybody wait until we see what is being asked for before we assign the most nefarious scenario as fact. Otherwise, I see Obama and his supporters coming across as sore winners, pissing off the support Clinton has garnered and making it harder for that bridge to be crossed and the election to be won.

lol at both this post and the post that referred to her as 'that creature'. If the #'s were so close in the other direction, would you have Obama lower his flag & zip his lip? The personal animosity toward a candidate who has the vote of... how close is the popular vote between them? is really rather disgusting. I am glad Obama is the candidate and not some of his supporters who on their own could easily drive away any who support Clinton and are as yet undecided on Obama, as certain supporters would make it seem they simply weren't welcome in the great late demotcratic party. Why does she have to be careful? You gonna go be mean to her? You have some specific 'revenge' in mind? Or sic Obama on her? Is that the sort of man he is? I certainly hope not.
