Obama to Hillary supporters: "get over it".
« on: June 23, 2008, 10:16:14 AM »

The BarackStar! at a meeting of the congressional black caucus:

Quote
    Sources at the meeting said that Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, a Clinton supporter, expressed the desire that Obama and his campaign would reach out the millions of women still aggrieved about what happened in the campaign and still disappointed that Clinton lost.

    Obama agreed that a lot of work needs to be done to heal the Democratic Party, and that he hoped the Clinton supporters in the room would help as much as possible.

    According to Rep. Yvette Clarke, D-N.Y., Obama then said, “However, I need to make a decision in the next few months as to how I manage that since I’m running against John McCain, which takes a lot of time. If women take a moment to realize that on every issue important to women, John McCain is not in their corner, that would help them get over it.”

    Rep. Diane Watson, D-Calif., a longtime Clinton supporter, did not like those last three words — “Get over it.” She found them dismissive, off-putting.

    “Don’t use that terminology,” Watson told Obama.

LOL!  What's next, "hey, is it that time of the month for all of you, or what?"

nah, he's not elitist or anything....

and he sure "gets" wimmins !
My fellow Americans, there is nothing audacious about hope. Hope is what makes people buy lottery tickets instead of paying the bills. Hope is for the old gals feeding the slots in Atlantic City. It destroys the inner-city kid who quits school because he hopes he'll be a world-famous recording artist.

What's the difference between Sarah Palin and Barack Obama?

One is a well turned-out, good-looking, and let's be honest, pretty sexy piece of eye-candy.

The other kills her own food.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

A liberal who is mugged by reality becomes conservative.

I agree they should get over it.  *shrug*  Obviously only one person can win the primary.  Hillary lost.  It wasn't because she was a woman that she lost, it's because she ran a piss poor campaign from the beginning.

if it had been the other way around, and barack had "won" the most votes but still lost the nomination, shit would be on fire right now.  literally. :-)
