Clinton says Obama doesn’t want people to vote

Posted by: Glenn Blain - Posted in 2008, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton on Mar 31, 2008

Hillary Clinton, in a round of media interviews today, vowed to continue on with her candidacy and said the repeated calls for her to drop out of the race are simply an attempt to keep people from voting.

“My take on it is a lot of Senator Obama’s supporters want to end this race because they don’t want people to keep voting,” she told CBS affiliate KTVQ in Billings, Mont. “That’s just the opposite of what I believe. We want people to vote. I want the people of Montana to vote, don’t you?”

Rival Barack Obama’s campaign, according to an Associated Press account, called Clinton’s claim laughable.

Meanwhile, Clinton campaign spokesman Howard Wolfson today rejected reports that the campaign is experiencing a cash crunc. Cash flow, Wolfson said in an interview, is good.

   Hillary almost is making Obama sound like he is the modern Lester Maddox or Orville Faubus trying to stop all those folks from voting.

   I used to support Hillary, and voted for her in our primary. But se has become gross, just gross. And the people around her are low, low class. It is clear they are looking to hobble Obama and work to 2012.

   Was there ever a major league team or player who complained about a rain shortened six-inning game in which they were in the lead? This is another instance where Hillary’s disingenuousness is palpably exposed.

   Today, Hillary apparently said that the movie “Forrest Gump” is based on a true story.

   Hers.
