Olbermann just said that she had the rally in a basement where there’s no Blackberry or cellphone reception so that nobody there would know that Obama won the nomination almost an hour ago!! ---

[QUOTE=Onomatopoeia] I can see it now. Hillary’s going to force Obama to offer her Veep. [/QUOTE] But the deal is, according to MSNBC, she wants the offer, but then she will decline it. I swear it. ---

No tv monitors, no telephone reception, blackberry reception no nothing? Why pick that venue? And WTF with Terry McCauliffe introducing her as the next president of the united states? ---

Obama folks… you won. It’s over. You don’t need to shove her out of the way, she’s leaving. She told people to go to her site, but didn’t ask them to give her money. She said she’s not making any decision tonight, but that doesn’t mean she didn’t already make one and won’t do it in two days or so. I’m pretty sure she never mentioned the White House and I know she didn’t say Denver; she was deliberately vague about “wherever this campaign goes next.” I think that was an exact quote. She’s proud and grace in defeat is not her strong suit, clearly, but the direction was clear anyway. ---

I hope Obama tells her he’ll meet with Ahmedenijad before he’ll meet with her. Concede, and then we talk, Hill. Not before. ---

I can’t believe that fork is still wiggling. Someone take her out back and shoot her to put her out of our misery. ---

[QUOTE=John Mace] I wonder if she’s going to blackmail Obama. Make me VP, and then I’ll concede. No, even she’s not that craven. [/QUOTE] Don’t bet on it. She’s drunk with (perceived) power, not to mention megalomaniacal. ---

I’m struck that the CNN primary panel regard her speech as a bad joke. I was watching MSNBC all night and they were boring. ---

I believe she just threw away her last chance to get anything out of this. Incidentally, who was that that introduced Obama? ---
