Has a deal been made?
Between Pelosi's and Reid's very definitive statements of the last 24 hours with Clinton's assertion that this will be over by next Wednesday and acknowledging that MI and FL did break the rules, I'm wondering if a deal has been made. I'm scared to hope, but I think so.

15. Sounds to me like a deal has been had.. but everyone, even the talk shows today, are
downplaying this, giving props to Clinton, doing big discussions on "sexism".. almost like they're TRYING not to piss her off so she can GET OUT.

She's really painted herself into a corner.. people are trying to dry the paint for her but if she doesn't do the right thing, I think they're prepared to escort her out.

2. as long as its not a VP position, I'm ok with that.
If she is VP, we've lost in November.

4. If the deal involves Hillary being VP... then it's a no deal for me......
I'll hold my nose and vote in November, but I'll feel betrayed by Obama and his message of "change".


Clinton on the ticket is the opposite of "change".


I'll vote... but I won't work, and I won't donate.


Hillary on the ticket is a deal-breaker as far as getting any of my labor or funds.

5. I hope so
I'm tired of the battle between the 2 camps. I don't really like either, but I hope he has agreed to her being the VP. I think at this point it gives us the strongest ticket and the best chance to win in Nov. And that's all I care about at this point, stopping the republicans. :)

7. An understanding
has been reached, as a result of a recent discussion between Rahm Emanuel and Hillary Clinton. There are very few people in her campaign telling her to fight on after next week.

Who knows - maybe she is trying to suggest that there might be a deal to trap Obama on something. You never know with Clintons.
