Clinton: Tuesday Will Be a 'Game Changer'
May 02, 2008 11:12 AM
ABC News' Eloise Harper Reports: Senator Hillary Clinton speaking in Kinston, NC said that Tuesday's primary will be a big day in the contest for the Democratic nomination. Clinton has denied in interviews and in press availabilities that she will drop out of the race if she loses Indiana. Today, Clinton stressed the importance of the North Carolina contest.
“This primary election on Tuesday is a game changer. This is going to make a huge difference in what happens going forward. The entire country – probably even a lot of the world is looking to see what North Carolina decides.”
Watch the VIDEO HERE.
Speaking at a John Deere sales center, the New York Senator stressed the importance of creating jobs, criticizing those who say the current jobs numbers are a good indication.
"You know we lost 20,000 jobs last month and people are saying well that’s better than we thought. Well, I don’t accept that at all. We're not supposed to be losing jobs in America we're supposed to be creating jobs in America. So losing 20,000 jobs isn’t exactly a welcome piece of information. We need to change our tax code which I will do. There’s not going to be one penny of your tax dollars that goes to any company that takes a job out of North Carolina and moves it to a foreign company.”
Clinton continued to praise the gax tax holiday and criticized her opponents for their positions. The former First Lady has five stops in North Carolina today, continuing her marathon sprint around the Tar Heel state leading up to Tuesday.

I think that it is important that the "voters" decide. It is our America and we ALL have a right to be heard. I am a life long Democrat and can see some very serious issues in how we are running our primaries. The race is run on a 50 state strategy and we have to clear up the debacle of Fl. & Mi. To know who has the most votes and delegates. There is no other way to do it. These people are not serial killers with no rights to their vote! We need to fix this and let the people have their say. obama says we need to do this WITH the involvement of the American people in order to change America. So let the people effect the change they want!!

Clinton is the best person for president....If the fools in the DNC can't see this its there loss,
OBAMA IS A DANGER FOR THE USA........
IF CLINTON LOSSES, LIKE A LOT OF HER SUPPORTERS I WILL VOTE FOR McCain.
Obama is to risky for the usa,lots of things about him are being covered up by the MSM.......

Bill Clinton Campaign Chairman and Hillary Clinton '08 Advisor Mickey Kantor tells George Stephanapoulos and James Carville: "Look at Indiana...it doesn't matter if we win. Those people are s.... How would you like to be a worthless white ni...r?"
Check it out on you tube

Clearly Clinton should Condemn and Renounce and Denounce and Decry Kantor for his disparaging comment against Hoosiers.

HILLARY WILL DO WELL BUT NOT WELL ENOUGH
The decision for Obama has already been made. Resistance is futile.
All that remains is whether Clinton supporters will shift left and enjoy the ride.
Sad but true. Thank you Howard Dean.

All you Obama supporters can do whatever you want .. try to bring Hillary down, but she will go on to be the President.
Go Hillary 08
Posted by: Rick | May 2, 2008 11:49:38 AM
Hillary supporters will sit out or vote for McCain but never for Obama.
Obama is nothing less than a left radical with rosy fake words.
Posted by: Rick | May 2, 2008 11:51:56 AM
YES WE CAN ...... BUT
How? That's the question to ask. Since the party has decided Obama will be nominated, isn't it about time he came forth with some details instead of vague promises?
Posted by: Aston | May 2, 2008 11:53:43 AM
We need to remeber this is not the fault of the candidates. The Dem. party has this everyone gets part of a prize system that fails us all. No one should be asked to leave and no other candidate surrogates should be asking the other to leave. Until the Dem. primary system is fixed this is the kind of chaos we will have to look forward to in the future!! Thanks Howard Dean!! Settle Mi. & Fl. now and the problem would already be working its self out.

Um, how many of those lost jobs are because of deals your Husband and members of your campaign staff cut Sen. Clinton? Even yoru buddy John McCain is backing off the gas tax holiday, you might not want to keep hawking it, well, you haven't actually presented any legislation on it, so it wasn't all that serious anyway.

At what point do you think she will finally drop out? I suspect she is quickly on her way to being the next Liebermann.

Only time will tell what happens in this primary and the general election.I just pray that the people make the right decision. The right person in office can determine our fate.

John...nothing would surprise me when it comes to the Clintons...I have seen in the last few weeks how Hillary is stepping back from the "Wright thing" but her campiagn is fueling it.
Posted by: catcall | May 2, 2008 11:59:53 AM
CLINTON PREVALENT!
The party has decided Clinton supporters and guess what -- she's not it. It's a done deal as more and more supers are being threatened by Pelosi, Dean and the other party apparatus.
Do you really think Nancy wants to compete with a woman president. Do you really think Dean would ever support a moderate?
Nope! Clinton's time has passed.
Posted by: Aston | May 2, 2008 12:00:10 PM
KNow what first she has to WIN that will not happen I would hope the people of IND would think before casting a vote for her.Will be more of the same crap and more closings as her husband done before her,This woman is sickoooooooooooo
NO RICKIE she will not be president for Mc Cain will be if she is on the ballot.....Wait and see>>>>>
Brenda read it type of people the Clintons hang with is they are still alive ...You're blaming Dean for something that Hilly agreeded with from the get go.Two sides of the story .They knew and I for one say don't count them or split them down the middle TS she knew this and now cries foul

I am tired of this Obama-Wright circus. This is not good for the party. And my biggest fear is that it is only the beginning of the end. For, lets face it, the Republicans will have a field day with these two come September. Obama has bungled this campaign. Thus, its time for REAL change. Time for him to go.

This is what people do run the other candidate down. No statement was made by Clinton. She has been asked and has only answer twice. What would you have done..He wouldn't have remained my pastor. Then O'reilley asked her whjat she thought of his words? She tried to not answer again and he kept pushing..she finally said that she doesn't believe that America created AIDS to commit genocide against African Americans!! What was she supposed to say? I agree!! No she never would because she doesn't. Obama said we need to heel America and the racial divide. It is not Senator Clintons fault he stayed in that church and people don't like it. She can't sink her career supporting wwrights words that are just WRONG!!
Posted by: Brenda P. | May 2, 2008 12:05:28 PM
Madam Mrs. Clinton, even if you win both States NC and IN that will not help you at all. What counts now are Super Delegates. If they are not in your side and others abandoning you, there is nothing to be happy/proud/hopeful of. We are now looking on the Math, and it does not add up for you, unfortunately, Sorry!
