HILLARY’S SWAN SONG: ‘I’M NOT QUITTING’

How was Tuesday “A Disastrous Night” (Kirsten Powers, PostOpinion, May 7)?

Sen. Hillary Clinton won Indiana and minimized Sen. Barack Obama‘s huge lead in North Carolina.

She even did this while being outspent three-to-one by Obama.

Despite the “math” or the “will of the people,” the superdelegates’ job is to pick a candidate who they are sure can win the general election.

Clinton is not finished; this is just a new chapter in her making history.

Goodbye, Clinton. She sought the glory, but it is not to be.

Hillary lacks Bill’s “black magic” and understanding that politics is about people, not policy.

The era of Clinton is dead; people grew cold to the Clintons because of their chicaneries.

Rev. Al Sharpton and Clinton should each take the two most bitter pills they have ever had to swallow and go to bed.

Those two pills are appropriately named “It’s Over.”

Voting for Obama?

Let the dumbing-down of America begin!

If Obama and Clinton end up running on the same ticket for the White House, it will be the biggest waste of two years of campaigning in the history of presidential elections.

All the money raised could have been better spent rebuilding New Orleans.

In the end, I will vote Republican if this comes to pass, and I’m sure a lot of other people feel the same way. Frank Sepe

If Clinton really cared about the country or the Democratic Party, she would gracefully bow out of the presidential race.

Unfortunately, Hillary is all about Hillary, and that’s a bit too much ego for me.

The primary results in North Carolina and Indiana mean one thing: Congratulations to President-elect John McCain.

I am proud that we will have a brave, honest and patriotic fighter pilot as commander in chief.

God truly protects this great, wonderful and beautiful nation of ours.

Clinton did nothing for New York.

If she buys the nomination, like she did the Senate seat, many Democrats will vote Republican.

I am an undeclared voter, except for the fact that I will never have another Clinton in the White House again.

Lois Lazarus

I hope and pray that Clinton wins so that The Post will have a lot of egg on its face.

Tammy McMillan

Austin, Texas

I’ve always thought she was on her own planet, but Clinton really looks like a lunatic who has lost all sense of reality.

It’s like she’s the only one in the room who doesn’t know it’s over.

You’re done, Clinton. It’s time to show a little dignity and bow out of the race with what little grace you have left.

Then again, grace and dignity are not anything the Clintons have ever been known for.

Michael Chimenti

Bayside

While prospects currently look bleak for Clinton’s bid for the Democratic nomination, this would not be the first time that she was counted out and came back.

It is certainly not over until the “fat lady sings.”

Between now and the nominating convention, there is the probability that the stealth candidate Obama will be subject to further damaging publicity about his past and present.

Certainly, with Obama now attacking McCain instead of Clinton, the Republican Party will cease holding fire and disclose all that can be found about Obama’s less-than-illustrious past.
