Hillary was going to refuse to concede on election night. Obama called her and pressured her to concede and she now regrets that decision.
Obama also thinks that contesting the election in the rust belt wastes time and resources that could be better used like for the Louisiana Senate run off.
I think despite Obama's many shortcomings, that he is a gentleman and also doesn't want to see the Democratic Party done more harm by the childish antics of Hillary's crew. The Dem Party is becoming a huge embarrassment to our nation, so they need to scale it back.
It's nice to see the phony Obama/Clinton alliance coming to an end. It was so obvious that Obama and Clinton really don't like each other (given the nastiness of the 2008 race), but that the two of them were pretending to be buddies simply because they had a shared interest in the outcome of the 2016 election. (Clinton hoped that the Obama coalition would win her the election, while Obama thought that being succeeded by a Democrat would boost his legacy.)
Obama also criticized Clinton when he pointed out the fact that she failed to connect with the white working class. "I won Iowa not because the demographics dictated that I would win Iowa," said Obama. "It was won because I spent 87 days going to every small town and fair and fish fry and VFW Hall, and there were some counties where I might have lost, but maybe I lost by 20 points instead of 50 points. There's some counties maybe I won, that people didn't expect, because people had a chance to see you and listen to you and get a chance of who you stood for and who you were fighting for."

The recount will be final nail in the coffin of the Clinton dynasty. Their last act in the political realm and the enduring reminder of the lengths they will go to turn democracy upside down to serve their selfish interests.
The fallout to the Democrat party from this latest gambit will impact party races coming up. Little concern to the Clintons. As they thought they alone were the party. Nothing else mattered other than putting the Clintons above all else.
A fitting way to go out for the Clinton's. When the honor of conceding the election was too gracious an act by Clinton standards, the most satisfying solution was to pull everyone down with them. This time their own party as it begins it's own rebuilding process. Barack Obama must be ready to throttle Hillary and Bill right now.

My guess is Obama wants to leave the presidency on a positive note because Michelle plans to jump into **politics fairly soon. B. Obama has no intentions of getting into a recall fight.
**I realize Obama said she isn't interested but I don't believe it. Michele is just as ambitious as Hillary.
Lol...some fruitcake repped me and called me a nazi piece of s***. Probably some thirty year old bed wetting loser living in his mother's basement.
That is a common Alt-Left tactic: scream Nazi, bigot, racist, or some other defamatory word to silence any discourse that goes against the goals of the Alt-Left.
Secret sources at Infowars said that HilLIARy couldn't give a concession speech the night of the election, because she was busy chasing Podesta and Bill C around a hotel suite with a steak knife, all the while a secret service sniper was trying to shoot her in the rear end with elephant tranquilizers.
I just can't believe these lows Hillary is stooping to. I knew she was unbalanced and possibly psycho but this is ridiculous.
She didn't put the work in to win those states, Donald did. She impulsively conceded after being advised not to by the people around her (except for Pres Obama) and now she wants to change her mind.
Is this what you wanted at Pres Dems? You should feel relieved. And you should be focusing on making Trump a one term Pres.
So you don't have any proof, just supposition and innuendo? Thanks for owning up.
So you don't have any common sense ? I'd thank you for owning up, but the forum already suspected as much.
