Lynn Forester De Rothschild is one of many Hillary Clinton supporters who are hesitant to throw their support, and money, behind Barack Obama. De Rothschild started a website aimed at uniting Clinton supporters and democrats of all kind to pressure Obama on issues regarding which they believe Clinton has a better stance.
Lynn Forester De Rothschild donated over $100,000 to Clinton’s campaign for the Democratic nomination but has not yet made a contribution to Obama, the predicted nominee. "I love my country more than I love my party," she said to the New York Times. "I can’t just fall in line."
Skeptics like Lynn Forester De Rothschild have not even been swayed by the wholehearted support of Obama by their hero Hillary Clinton. In a worse-case-scenario for the Democratic Party, some former Clinton supporters might vote for Republican John McCain in the general election.
