Hillary "Endorses" John McCain
This should clear up any confusion over whether Hillary endorses John McCain over Barack Obama.
Hillary yesterday:
"Once one of us has the nomination there will be a great effort to unify the Democratic party and we will do so, because, remember I have a lot of supporters who have voted for me in very large numbers and I would expect them to support Senator Obama if he were the nominee," she said.
Can the Obama supporters stop with the "monsters, inc. loves a 100 year war" junk now? Please?

You're right. That statement changes everything. Hillary's a flip-flopper.

Care to show me where she said she hopes her voters vote for McCain?

Yesterday Hillary said what was convenient for her to say yesterday.
She has already said for all to hear (even if you haven't) that Obama ain't fit to be President.
Not only she hasn't retracted that opinion, but she has repeated it. (Well, yeah, he could miraculously become fit to be her VP...)
PS1: Because she has turned words upside down so much already, her words can't ever clear up any confusion.
PS2: If you want to believe her "lie of the day" go ahead, but sit while you wait for the rest of us to do so.
PS3: Why would she so irresponsibly ask her supporters to vote for someone who can’t keep us safe??? Before suggesting that, she needs to tell us that Obama HAS crossed the threshold. She needs to renounce and reject the error of her comment.

Translation:
"My office heard from Nancy Pelosi yesterday and told me that if I didn't start acting like a democrat, not only would I be diminished in national party politics, but also I wouldn't have the support of the democrats in Congress and I could caucus with Joe Leiberman."

Consider closely: "Once one of us has the nomination..." HRC can parse her statements legalistically with the best of them. And her stating that the party will only come together "once one of us has the nomination" seems to imply that she's free to divide the party any way that favors her until she has the nomination. Talking up McCain over her Dem rival is entirely consistent with her statement.
