Clinton Campaign Reponds to DNC Decision on FL & MI
From Clinton supporters Harold Ickes and Tina Flournoy;
"Today's results are a victory for the people of Florida who will have a voice in selecting our party's nominee, and will see its delegates seated at our party's convention. The decision by the Rules and Bylaws Committee honors the votes that were cast the people of Florida, and allocates the delegates accordingly.
"Today's results are a victory for the people of Florida who will have a voice in selecting our party's nominee, and will see its delegates seated at our party's convention. The decision by the Rules and Bylaws Committee honors the votes that were cast the people of Florida, and allocates the delegates accordingly.
"We strongly object to the committee's decision to undercut its own rules in seating Michigan's delegates without reflecting the votes of the people of Michigan. The committee awarded to Senator Obama not only the delegates won by uncommitted, but four of the delegates won by Senator Clinton. This decision violates the bedrock principles of our democracy and our party.
"We reserve the right to challenge this decision before the credentials committee and appeal for a fair allocation of Michigan's delegates as they were cast."
Update: DNC seats Florida & Michigan Delegates
Florida
Michigan
From NBC's Mark Murray
A motion that would seat the entire Florida delegation and give them all a half vote just passed unanimously.
That measure would net Clinton 19 pledged delegates (Clinton picks up 52.5, Obama gets 33.5, and Edwards 6.5).
In addition, all Florida superdelegates will be seated, but with half a vote each.Michigan
From NBC's Mark Murray and Ben Weltman
By a 19-8 vote, a compromise allocating Michigan's pledged delegates by a 69-59 forumla -- but counting each by just half a vote -- has just passed the DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee.
The compromise will give Clinton 34.5 delegates and Obama 29.5 delegates. It would also seat all of Michigan's superdelegates but also give them just half a vote. Moreover, it would make the magic number to clinch the Democratic nomination 2,118.
But Clinton adviser and committee member Harold Ickes strongly disagreed with this compromise -- and said Clinton will reserve her right to take this dispute to the Democratic convention.
"This motion will hijack, hijack, remove four delegates won by Hillary Clinton and most importantly reflect the preferences of 600,000 Michigan voters. This body of 30 individuals has decided that they are going to substitute their judgment for 600,000 voters."
He went on to say, "Hijacking four delegates is not a good way to start down the path of party unity,"

Obama's 2nd Pastor Problem
I don't understand why people (who are probably Democrats) feel it is alright to trash Hillary. It makes me sick
Obama's connection with the Pastor
From the Chicago Tribune
"Pfleger gave Obama's campaign $1,500 between 1995 and 2001, including $200 in April 2001, about three months after Obama announced $225,000 in grants to St. Sabina programs."

Have you seen the polls?
Here is the latest email from the Hillary Campaign Office
Have you seen the general election polls lately? They consistently show that we'll beat John McCain in November. In a national head-to-head match and in the critical swing states, the numbers show I'm the best candidate to take back the White House for Democrats.
That is why it's critical that we stay in this race and keep fighting for every last vote. We can win the nomination if we extend our popular vote lead, and that means putting everything we have into the final races. With just a few days before the voters in Puerto Rico head to the polls, our campaign is working hard -- and your support is making the difference.
Every vote matters. I need you to help today and join our matching program. By matching the donation of someone who hasn't made a gift before, you're doubling the impact of your contribution, making your $50 gift worth $100 or your $100 gift worth $200.
Contribute today to have twice the impact on the final primary races.
In the past 24 hours, thousands of you have given generously to our campaign, and I'm so delighted to see your incredible commitment.
With your help, we're going to keep driving forward to victory, and there's no better time to help than right now. By making a matching contribution, you'll double your impact.

Hardball's Haggard Hillary Promo Pic
NewsBusters has a great article about the bias and sexism on Hardball
"Can you blame ardent Clinton camper Lanny Davis for accusing MSNBC, and Matthews in particular, of being "shamelessly biased" against Clinton? Ironically, during Morning Joe's first segment, panelist Tucker Carlson discussed the same phenomenon, describing "the overwhelming press bias in favor of Barack Obama."
Davis says that a member of MSNBC senior management “told me personally that they were aware that they needed to do something to bring credibility back to MSNBC in terms of balance,” and that Matthews himself told Lanny “I’m going to be better.”
Looks like MSNBC needs to go back to the fair-and-balanced drawing board."

Jehmu Greene -- Barack Obama is desperate!

She told the crowd, “There isn't anything we cannot do together if we seek God's blessing and if we stay committed and are not deterred by the setbacks that often fall in every life.” Read more.
Door to Door in Rapid City, SD: South Dakota volunteer canvasser, “Suzan Nolan says, ‘Every single vote makes a difference. It's not over till its over.’ It's a motto Suzan strongly believes in, which is why she volunteered to canvass today. Nolan says, ‘I really believe in Hillary Clinton. She's a strong, educated, experienced woman. By far has more experience than her opponent.’ And because Suzan, like many other Clinton supporters, believes so strongly in the New York Senator, she will continue with her efforts to reach out to more voters one door at a time.” Read more.

“Why I Continue To Run” Hillary wrote an op-ed in today’s New York Daily News outlining her reasons for continuing to fight for the Democratic nomination: “I am running because I still believe I can win on the merits. Because, with our economy in crisis, our nation at war, the stakes have never been higher - and the need for real leadership has never been greater - and I believe I can provide that leadership.” Read more.

"More than 17 million Americans have voted for Hillary Clinton in this primary election season and I am proud to continue to support Hillary with my delegate vote at the national convention in August in Denver," Cleveland said.

Election Day in KY and OR: Get Out & Vote For Hillary
Mission Accomplished? Not So Fast: In a campaign memo, Communications Director Howard Wolfson argues “Senator Obama’s plan to declare himself the Democratic nominee [to]night in Iowa is a slap in the face to the millions of voters in the remaining primary states and to Senator Clinton’s 17 million supporters…Premature victory laps and false declarations of victory are unwarranted. Declaring mission accomplished does not make it so. While Senator Obama inaccurately declares himself the nominee, Senator Clinton will continue to work hard, campaigning for every vote in the upcoming states and making the case that she will be the best nominee to take on John McCain and be our next President.” Read more.
Support in KY: At an event yesterday in Maysville, KY, former Gov. Martha Layne Collins said “I'm here because Hillary Clinton is the most experienced and the most prepared…She's no quitter. She is going to go and go…Let me guarantee you, with a woman in the White House, there will be change.” Read more.
Protecting America’s Miners: At a “Get Out The Vote” rally in Prestonsburg, KY yesterday, Hillary unveiled her plan to protect America’s miners. Read more.
Responding to Sen. McCain: Hillary responded yesterday to a speech by Sen. McCain on the economy: “It’s hard to take lectures on economic policy from Senator McCain, who has admitted he doesn’t understand economics, and who thinks the right way to fix our ailing economy is to embrace George Bush’s failed economic strategy. Senator McCain and President Bush are like two sides of the same coin - and it doesn’t amount to a whole lot of change.” Read more.

Let's Keep Winning Together
Here is a letter from Hillary Clinton sent out today to all supporters
Today, in every way that I know how, I am expressing my personal determination to keep forging forward in this campaign.
After our come-from-behind victory in Indiana, there are just 28 days of voting left. But we've never campaigned with the stakes as high or the time as short as they will be over the next four weeks.
And with you by my side, I'm going to keep fighting for what I believe in until every voter has had his or her say.
From the very beginning, you and I have counted on one another, working through every challenge and seizing every opportunity. That's not just the way our campaign works. That's the way America works.
As we enter the final four weeks of this contest, let's keep working our hearts out.
Contribute now to keep moving our campaign forward.
In six days, we have the chance to show our strength in West Virginia. If you'll stand with me, it's an opportunity I intend to make the most of.
There's no question about it -- we've got to make every one of these next 28 days count -- starting with today.
Contribute now, and let's keep winning together.
As we've told each other time and time again. There will be good days and not so good days in the course of this campaign. But there will never be a day that we can't count on one another.
As we enter the final 28 days of voting, I know you'll give it everything you've got. And you know I will do the same.
Thanks for being such a wonderful friend and ally,
Hillary Rodham Clinton

Latest Hillary News May 6th
Energized: Hillary “had been campaigning for more than 16 hours when she strode onto the stage at Evansville Central High School just before 11 p.m….But Clinton betrayed barely a hint of fatigue as she beamed at a crowd of screaming supporters at the high school. ‘This campaign has been a joy,’ she said…Clinton has brought a new zeal to the trail in recent weeks that she shows no signs of abandoning.” Read more.
By the Numbers: “The latest Ipsos poll conducted over the weekend shows that on the eve of the Indiana and North Carolina primaries, Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton has taken over the lead in popular support from Democrats nationally (47-40).” Less than two weeks ago, Ipsos showed Sen. Obama leading nationally. Read more.
If You Watch One Thing: “Democratic presidential contender Hillary Clinton appeared on Monday on the ‘Late Show with David Letterman’ to deliver the ‘Top 10’ reasons she loves America, which included the ability to order her trademark pantsuits around the clock on the Internet.”
Why I Support Hillary: General Hugh Shelton, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff on why he supports Hillary: “We need a president who will end this war honorably…Clinton is the best person for the huge challenge we still face in Iraq…[she] has gotten to know our military during her time as first lady and as a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee…She understands the impact of endless commitments on the service families who also serve our country…After five years, we now have the opportunity to bring this war to an honorable end, with Sen. Clinton as our next commander-in-chief.” Read more.
Sen. Obama’s Attacks Debunked: “Obama is wrong about the gas tax: Think Clinton’s plan to suspend the gas tax temporarily is a bad idea? A similar measure in Illinois - which Obama backed - seems to have helped consumers.” Read more.
“Illuminating, Inspiring” A Charleston Gazette op-ed describes how “Hillary Clinton’s performance on the Senate Armed Services Committee demonstrates her deep desire to know everything necessary to lead this country in difficult, even dangerous, times.” Read more.
Clinton Is Right For Democrats: The Bend Bulletin endorsed Hillary yesterday: “[S]he is a candidate of proven substance. Even if you discount the value of her eight years as first lady — which, if nothing else, familiarized her with the position she seeks — her Senate tenure has been more than twice as long as Obama’s… this country would be better off under the leadership of a pragmatic realist than a celebrity politician whose legislative record, such as it is, contradicts his oratory. In any case, she’d probably be more likely than Obama to defeat McCain in November.”

100+ Reasons Why People Support Hillary
100+ Reasons Why People Support Hillary
Click Here To View and Leave Your Own Reasons
Latest Hillary News
Iran Scared Of Hillary
From the NY Times
Iran has lodged a formal protest at the United Nations about comments by Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton that the United States would “totally obliterate” Iran if it attacked Israel with nuclear weapons, the state-run news agency, IRNA, reported Thursday."
Another reason why I love Hillary. She is tough and means business.
Former DNC chiefs to members: Back Hillary
from the Gaurdian
Seven former Democratic National Committee chairmen have penned an open letter to DNC members urging them to support Hillary Clinton.
Those of us who support Hillary Clinton for president do so with the knowledge that she, just like us, has dedicated her life to improving the standard of living for others, and she has worked to make our Party the strong force that it is today. Her values are our Party's values. Her record of fiscal prudence is matched by her commitment to social responsibility. Her accomplishments in the area of strengthening America's security are a matter of public record.
Hillary has run one of the most formidable campaigns in the history of our Party. Her wins this primary season are significant - Arizona, Arkansas, California, Florida, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas. Her base of support includes women, Hispanics, seniors, Catholics, middle and low income Americans, and rural, suburban and urban voters. That's a formidable coalition tailor-made for victory in a November general election.
Hillary on the Choice of Who Pays the Gas Tax
Hillary wants the oil companies to pay the gas tax, rather than hardworking Americans.
A Star Endorsement
The Indianapolis Star today endorsed Hillary: Hillary “offers nuanced positions on how to address the war in Iraq, trade with China and economic expansion. Her depth of knowledge is remarkable…[she] is well prepared for the rigors of the White House. She is tough, experienced and realistic about what can and cannot be accomplished on the world stage…Hillary Clinton is the better choice.” Read more.
HRC Strongest v. McCain:
“A spate of new public polls out this week confirms what we have been arguing for some time: Hillary Clinton is the strongest candidate to beat John McCain in November. The data shows that Clinton not only outperforms Obama in head-to-head matchups, but is also stronger in the all important subcategories that serve as bellwethers for a candidate’s overall strength. In addition, new data out [yesterday] in three swing states vital to Democratic prospects in November show Clinton beating McCain.” Read more and more.
Superdelegate Watch:
Five superdelegates announced their support for Hillary yesterday. Read more and more.
