WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Sen. Hillary Clinton of New York announced Saturday she was suspending her presidential campaign, saying in a speech to her supporters, "I will continue to stand strong with you every time, every place and every way that I can."...

But the primary battles also heightened animosity between the two camps, and the at times bitter battle between Obama and Clinton revealed divisions within the party along race, class, age and gender lines.

Obama said Thursday that "everybody needs to settle down" and let the vetting process run its course.

**************
Two words today:
animosity - 仇恨,憎恶,敌意, ill will and resentment; enmity
vet - 检审, evaluate for approval or acceptance

For ex.
Catholic vs. Protestant - why is there so much animosity?
