Political Punch

Bogus,is a great word to describe O'Bama.But it could also be used for Mr.Thornburgh (Time magazine)because he still insist O'Bama isn't or wasn't muslim.Get your facts straight Thornburgh.
And "Me" one of the reasons he is treated so gingerly is another "O" which stands for Oprah,who has amazing influence over the media in this country.Again,lets use the "H" word and where has Michelle gone?Did she finally find a country she was proud of?

This entire exchange is moot. The world knows that the american people have already made up thier mind as to the next president. Al you need do is count the total number of votes for each to date,Inhale, say the word "Woah!", utter something like insurmountable, and try to think of any other possible outcome. There is none. The only question is where are we going to find a vice president?.

Both candidates are bringing out their best! someone should help me decide who go it right from day 1. May be, that is the best candidate.

Energy Independence Now!

No more Oil Wars!

Stop funding the terrorists!

Drill in Anwar.

Build more nuclear power plants

Use More coal.

Use more natural gas

Turn trash into energy

Double the efficiency of windmills and solar cells.

If France can do nuclear power so can we.

If Brazil can do biomass/ethanol power so can we.

If Australia can do LNG power so can we.

Domestically produced energy will end recession and spur the economy.

To Sean,
I like your thoughts about why the republicans and conservatives are behind Obama. I listen to talk radio a lot and much of it has a very conservative slant. They are encouraging republicans, conservatives and independents to support Obama because they believe he is the easier candidate to beat in the general election.

Clinton is soooo desperate, she will say or do anything to get back into the white house with her hubby. Let's face it, Hillary is the chip off the old block, the Old Block being her Republican Senator Father, Rodan. Daddy would just be proud of his little Republican Yuppie Larva spewing her half truths, of which the Clintons are so famous for.

M First the picture is from Clinton supporters, now it's from "rogue staffers". And all to get media attention. Sorry, maybe the Obamabots will buy into that one but not the Clinton supporters. By the way, there is heavy media bias against Hillary Clinton and if you can't see it you are blind. Also, you will never control the world. A vote for Obama is a vote for McCain.

Terry you found us out!!!! Great job detective. The clintons should hire YOU to uncover all the dirt.

He never talked about the picture because it shouldnt have been an issue. But once again the Senator Clinton has no control over her campaign and rogue staffers are circulating junk to TRY to get the medias attention.

Im glad that we have the media in our pockets....now we can control the world!

(sarcasm has been expressed in my comments)

Previously undecided. Exactly how long were you previously undecided? 2 seconds. You don't sound like you were ever on the fence. Where did you read that the picture of Obama circulating on the net came from Clinton supporters? Why was this picture not addressed by the Obama campaign when they first knew that it existed? They certainly had to know about this picture. Were they afraid of the implication themselves? The bigger question should be why does Barack Obama seem to want to hide his Muslim roots? Both his father and his stepfather were indeed Muslims. His father was from Kenya and his stepfather was from Indonesia. If that ignites fear than that is not the fault of the Clintons. And for you to blame Clinton supporters with no evidence is just pathetic. Also, what is a statesman-like approach to debates? Is that your way of side-stepping his lack of preparation, and his lack of in-depth knowledge about the issues? Does a good commander-in-chief mis-state the facts in the last debate concerning a military story he told. And what about his ideas about Pakistan? Of course, Obama doesn't have to concern himself with "petty barbs and personal attacks", he has the media in his back pocket at all times to do the dirty work for him. As far as his strong Christian faith, I wish he would actually would talk about it and what it means to him.

Way to go previously undecided. Glad some people actually READ the facts and the campains of the candidates.

Senator Obama is indeed a man of great character. He has been playing the "game" the right way, which what Senator Clinton should be doing.

Meet us in Ohio Clintons....for ANOTHER debate!

Having read all comments on Mr Obama, I downloaded from his web site the 64pp Blueprint Plan for Change. An amazing outline of his views on the problems facing America today and some very impressive arguments for solutions to these problems. When you combine his strong position on the essentials with his statesman-like approach to debates, rallies etc, you can see the strength of a potential Commander-in-Chief, the wisdom of Solomon and the understanding of good diplomatic persuasion required in disjointed world politics.
Senator Obama's restraint, in ignoring petty barbs and personal attacks, heightens the obvious inability of opponents to prove their superiority in the Presidential bid. Senator Clinton has spoiled her own position by ignoring diplomacy in some of her personal attacks against the integrity and worth of Senator Obama. This is worrying, in that it indicates a possibility of her losing control when President.
The recent release of a photograph of Senator Obama, in custom Somali dress, inferring links to Islam and emanating from one of Senator Clinton's supporters was obviously intended to hurt Obama's position through fear-mongering. It was an insult to law-abiding Moslems in the US as well as a cruel deception to question Obama's strong Christian faith. Senator Clinton should have denounced this travesty immediately but chose to keep quiet, personally. I, for one, could not trust this woman as President, knowing that she could ignore an injustice for the purpose of personal gain.
We should support Senator Obama in his right to fair consideration as President of the United States and leader of the free world.

SHAME ON YOU, HILLARY CLINTON!!!!

Remember this is the same HRC who when asked (at a debate) if Chicago and NY met world series who would want to win the series.

She weaseled around with her answer until when finally pinned by the moderator she said she would be routing for both teams to win.

So that's Hills in a nutshell. She's carefully position on both side of the issue (In this case NAFTA). She's the Dem version of Romney.

Here, again, is Obama having it both ways: He tells people in Ohio that Hillary said NAFTA was a "boon", which she did not; He is on the record pro-NAFTA saying that it has helped farmers with their products, and that it needs to be fixed for other issues, while he ignores what Hillary said in earlier debates about revisiting NAFTA to fix the problems. He can have it both ways. I hope the voters in Ohio get their information from more than one news source. Otherwise, they will follow all the starry-eyed groupies and believe that only Obama can fix their problems.

Once again Hillary Clinton wants her cake and to eat it too. I hope that Barack clarifys the differences in what her article says and the truth. Indeed we are electing George Bush all over again wearing a Hillary Clinton mask and a Democratic scarf. Don't be fooled. We will not survive another term of these tactics. Ohio don't vote what is left of your economy and infrastructure down the drain, elect Barack Obama and regain lost ground.

Wait a minute, what the heck are people hitting Obama for when it was Clinton who sent out false misleading mailers about his stand on NAFTA taking select words twisting them instead of his entire comments which clearly shows he was not in support of it.

M, you're right. Why do peoples opinion get deleted? Is there no free speech in this country. I guess anything against the Clintons isn't accepted. I'm a Republican and believe in free speech. This is not a communist country.

It is like what you sow what you gorw. Obama lied and has been hypocritical. Press has always given him positive coverage inspite of his negative campaigning. So Hillary going a little out of way is nothing as compared to the lies that Obama has been spreading.

I think Barack Obama since the start of this campaign has been given a free pass by the media. They treat him as the chosen one. They demand from him as much as his supporters do. Nothing. His supporters want desperately to believe in his messages of hope and change. But they don't really want to know the truth about him. They don't look up the facts. They don't want to know about his past. They don't want to have their dreams deflated. They believe what the media wants them to believe. They are being used and they have yet to realize it.
Hillary Clinton has been bashed from the start. And the media is relentless. Their attacks know no bounds. They will stop at nothing to have Obama win. I believe Hillary has to be aggressive at pointing negative things out about Obama because the media refuses to do their job. It makes her campaign look negative. But what alternative does she have? How can she fight the endless criticisms that she receives? And the neverending praises he receives.
There is still time to fight. Texas, Ohio and Rhode Island, you can make the difference! You can show the media and TPTB you will not be taken in by them. Just watch the debate tonight in Ohio. Hillary will not disappoint you.

I can't believe some of you didn't read the article completely. Westcoastmessenger, did you see where she (Hillary) lied about the quotes she copied and pasted. Are you people so close-minded that you can't see Hillary for what she is and definitely not fit to be president. Even her demeanor of the last 7 days is inconsistent and her inability to run a campaign should prove that she can't run this country. Get a clue vote Obama 2008
