Why Sen. Clinton No Longer Gets The Benefit Of The Doubt From Me
http://www.oliverwillis.com/index.php/2008/05/24/why-sen-cli...“[T]here is nothing to base that on. As far as I know” “Sen. Obama’s support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again” “There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base.” “[T]he activist base of the Democratic Party… [T]hey are very driven by their view of our positions, and it’s primarily national security and foreign policy that drives them. I don’t agree with them. They know I don’t agree with them. So they flood into these caucuses and dominate them and really intimidate people who actually show up to support me.” “Dr. King’s dream began to be realized when President Johnson passed the Civil Rights Act,” Clinton said. “It took a president to get it done.” Bonus quotes from Bill Clinton: “[I] opposed Iraq from the beginning” “It’s the caucuses that have been killing us” “Jesse Jackson won South Carolina in ‘84 and ‘88. Jackson ran a good campaign. And Obama ran a good campaign here.“

Howard Wolfson says they'll roll on, stating: "This is a country of 50 states. All of them should be represented. We won significant victories in both Florida and Michigan. We believe that delegates from those states ought to be seated." It's a country of 50 states - but the smaller states and the caucus states don't count because they lost those.
