LOS ANGELES - The Golden State's First Lady, Maria Shriver, was in Los Angeles Wednesday for a Barack Obama gathering and her message to those still hanging on to the idea of Sen. Hillary Clinton becoming president was simple: Do what you have to do, but get over it and get over it quickly.
At a "Women for Obama unity cocktail reception" at the home of longtime Democratic activist and former studio head Sherry Lansing, Shriver didn't mince words according to a report in today's Los Angeles Times.
Many of the guests were firm Clinton supporters. Shriver, a backer of Barack Obama and the wife of celebrity governor and John McCain supporter Arnold Schwarzenegger, was there to help convince them that disappointment need not lead to defection.
"I know many of the people on McCain's campaign," she said. "A lot of them worked on my husband's campaign. I can tell you they're tough and they're organized. You must focus on the repair work. If you don't work to heal the rupture, the fight will be all that's remembered. .... No one did that in 1980 and we all know what happened: We lost that election."

The Democrats including BHO supporters
Maria your mouth is moving and I Don’t want to hear from the likes of you or any Dem that has had a hand in the political ambush of Hillary Clinton. Everyone of you spineless kool-aid drinking fools ought to be charged with "Domestic Abuse" and "discrimination". I feel as though it is a great example of why Affirmative Action MUST go. You filled you quota with Barack. I can not believe that the Dems chose an Empty, lying, flip flopper an Anti-American can‘t put his hand over his heart as the pledge of Allegiance is recited because he doesn‘t want to Offend anyone, sits in the Trinity of Hell, radical spiritual advisors and mentor, with no resume or qualifications, thinks the Muslim prayer or chant to Allah is the most BEAUTIFUL sound in the world to be POTUS over a Dignified, Remained LOYAL after being treated so horribly, hard working for the American people, QUALIFIED Lady with Class, that has a resume that blows MOST of the Dems out of the water, with the potential to Lead us into a new and healthy direction.
So having said that, I have let the party go. I have not abandoned you , you abandoned me and I hope EVERYONE of you CHEATERS eat your own crap you have been shoving down our throats for the last 18 months. You better do it with as much grace and dignity as Hillary has done. PUMA all the way. I am NOT a SHEEPLE and McCain is NOT bush. You DEMS are a bunch of coward a$$#$ that destroyed Democracy in the WORST way possible. Go ahead a BOO HOO that McCain showed he is NOT the Misogynist you accused. You Demawits HAD your Chance and blew it. So while you Point the finger at the UNQUALIFIED V.P. Palin (as you dips would say it), look at you OWN Candidate of Choice. You people are Joke! Pull your heads out of your rectums. You lose , your fault! I supported Hillary because I have faith in her. I will NEVER Fall in line because Barack is a disgrace to America. I don't give a flying POO what Hillary called for. Your tower of Power with crash and crumble upon you as any structure does, that is NOT built on a good solid foundation! Take this to your Fellow DEMS as I KNOW I don NOT stand ALONE! Your Celebrity is fading into the back round with the same old politics as usual.
Now for Barack supporters you are as rude and abusive as the party you follow. The Race card is over played and attacking those of us who refuse to fall in line and to our knees and worship your "messiah" does NOT persuade us, it ONLY strengthens our resolve to spite you and the party. You do your Candidate of Choice NO Justice. My advice to you is hush yourself and keep your racist , looking for a free ride, the whole world owes me, while I sit I on my Lazy a$$, huked un foniks wirked fur mee intellectual superiority attitudes to yourself!
HRC Supporters
Ms. Shriver, Au contraire that HC supporters need to get over it. The DP needs to listen up to HC's 18 millon voters who are passionate party members seeking to reinstate the Dem's with vim and vigor. You just can't admit that the Obama star is fading. When the flame is too big at the start it has no place to go. HC's flame has only begun to ignite!!
Maria Shriver
The Obama campaign asks us to “Expose Jerome Corsi as a Right-Wing Fabricator”. It provides “talking points” proclaiming: “The media are not playing their role as watchdogs.” Ordinarily, I would rally and criticize Corsi’s new book. Then I review the “talking points” and I am reminded of how much more energy Obama spends on winning a race and than actually accomplishing something in office. I recall how this media darling remained gleefully silent while the press routinely tarred and feathered Sen. Clinton. I remember his dismissive statements about her experience and his condescending reference to her “claws”. I am reminded how the press branded the Clintons racist and how Obama has used that and other race cards to his advantage. I know Mr. Corsi has caused so much damage with his muckraking. I am not a fan. Yet, I see our divided party and remember that Sen. Obama has sanctioned the belittling of older voters, women, blue-colored workers and others who question his candidacy. Obama’s “talking points” suggest the use of terms like “bigot”, “smears” and “slime artists”. Naturally, I recall the thug tactics Obama has not only popularized among his supporters, but used against fellow Democrats. I am sorry Sen. Obama. You point one finger towards another, and the other four point back at you. Sadly, I am reminded once again why I am a PUMA.
Paul V.

Hillary
Who do you think you are to tell us women what to do?? Just because you are a Kennedy and want to be in Camelot a
while longer gives you NO EXPERIENCE to be picking a V.P.
anyway. No one cares what you think and no one is listening-!!
Hillary will do what she so wants to do and you can't control the
Clintons. Just because you are an Obama A### kisser makes you
nothing more then a mouth piece. If Obama listens to you
he will loose, so keep it up!!!!

90% percent Voter are Over Hillary Losing,,still don't change the facts and that is Obama is not the right person to lead, for the democrats, I will not blindly vote for A Criminal a liar,,his Rysko scandale, His flip flopping and taking left to right, the fact he never won a big state ever except his own state, His un-assure to lead what asked a hard question he still stutters and stammers, then after the fact gets his flunky to attack and say he was given to hard of question, Gee what happened to Hillary all she got was hard question,, and she did not break down, and attack people for getting hard question,
Obama is right its time for Change, Ted Kennedy and Maria Shriver, Both been on politics way to long riding the coat tails of Robert F Kennedy who is a great man,
It time for Ted Kennedy Maria Shriver to get out of Polotics and step down, back people and distorting facts, when this election is over, change will happen, Pelosi will be voted out of office, Boxer will be voted out of office, The Kennedys need to go away,,
Out with the old in with the new, That is what you think by backing Barack Obama, so let stick with this, Ted and Maria need to be replaced with younger and better people,
Ted Kennedy should have trouble parking Cars in the River, with people still in it,
Maria need to stay home and eat a Cracker,,, quit looking like Refugee, \Trust me when I say When the Obama Supporter can go on TV like CNN & Msnbc, 6 months ago and say if Barack don't win the primary all barack Obama supporters are going to vote for McCain, but now barack is getting the nomination,, you going to force everyone to UNITE, HA HA HA HA, please quit being a two face double standard, I am a loyal Democrat and will vote who is better for the job, I will not throw my vote away, but Barack is not better for the job so I will Vote McCain and let if be known and show my registration card me voting for Hillary,,, This will be the first year that I vote Republican, Not because Hillary Lost Because Obama suck and is a Flip flopping fool, it is what it is,,, Shriver needs to get over UNITY< Like barack said before, He don't need Hillary,,, And I hope to god,,, Hillary does not become vice president, this will make her look very bad, in the lime light,
so people go out and Vote who you think is better for the job, Not because CNN or MSNBC said so ,,, or because of these kennedys told you so. Vote Who you think is better for the Job, Don't be scared with Obama or Kennedy Scare tactics,, that is all there doing, Vote who you think is better it your right as a American,,, the land of freedom
