Hillary Clinton is hoping for a miracle. She is just not going to get it. Even if she wins all the remaining states, she still can’t get the nomination. That is unless she can get delegates to change their votes. In the Democratic Convention, you don’t have to vote for the [...]
Hillary Clinton is hoping for a miracle. She is just not going to get it. Even if she wins all the remaining states, she still can't get the nomination. That is unless she can get delegates to change their votes. In the Democratic Convention, you don't have to vote for the candidate you pledged for. You can change your mind. I think Hillary wants to make the case that she is the ONLY one that can ... Read More

In a speech in North Carolina, Hillary promised a “game-changer” after the primary elections next week. This comes as Obama’s lead is shrinking in North Carolina. However, it may be just a little too late. She also demanded that something be done about gas prices, but offered no immediate solution. All [...]
In a speech in North Carolina, Hillary promised a "game-changer" after the primary elections next week. This comes as Obama's lead is shrinking in North Carolina.
