Yes I do believe that. I believe that Obama, just like all of the other candidates who left the run for office would stand behind the party, there would be no reason for him not to.

If the shoe was on the other foot, I believe he would be getting the same pressure that Hillary is to quit the race.

Have you read the national polls to support your conclusions?

One of the greatest speeches of ALL time !!

And she wasnt reading it from a teleprompter like someone else we know did.

Obama needs to resign, Hillary has all the momentum and can beat McCain, Obama cannot.

Please my friend read some of the polls and other data presented on here and then ask yourself am I really saying things that are corroborated by the data available?

Oh....Is this the qualifications and pre-requiste wishful thinking for admission into Hillaryland?

WH2008: Democrats

So much for the momentum argument.

Sorry, I am not a Hillary fan at all, wont vote for her either.

Polls mean nothing, absolutely nothing. People lie and people are dishonest.

The only polls that have been correct to date is that Hillary would win by 35% in Kentucky and it was dead on.

Stop reading the polls, remember Rasmussan had Hillary out of the race months ago, well she is still there and will proabably end up with the nomination.

Is it polls or numbers you disagree with? Some people are more comfortable with data and how to use it.

Please share with us the poll where Rasmussan told Hillary to withdraw from the race?

That's like telling me 20 + 26 = 2026, the magic number. Try again, you are not Hillary fan but for some reason you think she's the better candidate.
