Political Punch

Its great to see the liers are having a field day and claiming the presdiency of USA as matter of entitlement.Both Bill and Hill are first class liers. Bill was caught after doing the job and Hill is caught before starting the job.
Why are you forgetting now chelsea has got sufficient experiece for campaigning and living in the white house. NOW she can JUDGE who will be a better President between the two .
Americans are being taken for a ride with such candidates who have no morality left, imagine showing the world that a perpetual lier can be the President ofAmerica. When thousands of soldiers have dies she is talking about passing thru sniperfire.Its shameful. you have no moral right to stand for the no 1 office of the great country and be C in C on theday one who is insulting the soldiers in Bosnia as if they were not doing their job.
JUst SHUT her out.

Mr. Obama must think it's HIS TURN to be president. Why else would he walk into the Senate one day and start campaigning the next????

It's arrogant that anyone with such a slim resume would even have the nerve to run! As others have said, put lipstick and a wig on him, and he'd be NOWHERE where he is in this race!!!

Did you ever read these and wonder how so many people could be so ignorant of the facts. For some reason, at least 75% of the high school dropouts post on this blog!

What's with Obama and his love of republicans. Hi likens his foreign policy to the elder Bush and Reagan and then JFK. He wants to put republicans in his cabinet and is thinking of a non democrat for the VP. I am a democrat, I want the WH staffed with democrats and the VP to be a democrat. If we are going to have a WH full of republicans I will vote for McCain. At least at his age he will be a one-termer then Hillary can run again in 4 years like Gore should have in 2004.

I would love to see a Hillary, Monica ticket. I mean, why not? Monica has almost the same experience in white house as Hillary..may be more! We would have the most experienced people as the commander in cheif and the deputy!

Please people have some respect for
President Obama and secretary of story
telling Clinton.

If Hillary is qualified by living in the White House for 8-years while Bill was President then the Democrats should be running Monica. She has more experience in the Oval Office then Hillary.

Who chose Obama anyway? He doesn't have the popular vote anyway as they claim because he won a few caucus votes when in fact the voters of the caucus states did not get the opportunity to vote; therefore, how on earth do you all think Obama is the winner with the most popular votes. I learned to count in 2nd grade, add in 3rd grade, and this just does not add up. Ann

Please, people, don't vote for McCain even if your candidate doesn't make it. This is not like the election of 1960, 1984 or even 1992. Do you really hate the other candidate so much that you're willing to throw this country away to a third term for Bush? McCain will be that third term. More war, more deficits, more recession. Please do as Hillary said, think about this decision. McCain is the wrong decision for this country. I plan to vote Democratic, even if my candidate doesn't win. Either one would make an excellent president. I just wish they could be on the same ticket, but that doesn't look too likely now. If you doubt that McCain would be bad for this country, look at what his response was last April when asked what we were going to do about Iran. He said, "It's like that old Beach Boys song, Bomb Iran. Bomb-bomb-bomb..." Even if he meant it as a joke, that's not a joke a presidential candidate should make.

The presidency is not like the throne of England. No one is in line for the Presidency based on their relationship
their to a powerful ex-president. After
Bush, hopefully we would elect the best person for the job and not the most connected. So yes it is nobody's turn
but that of the most energetic, most intelligent, most truthful (that leaves out the sniper story teller), most likely to take the USA to new heights and end the war in Iraq (that leaves out wobbly resurrected dead man walking,McCain) which is benefiting Iran, most unlikely to raise any taxes and has a sound economic plan.

He is right she thinks this is her turn,she has been lookig forward to this for 8 years now and how dare anyone try to stop her.It is funny but Obama has been cool calm and ok with all of the ---- she has handed out so yes, I would love to have him the one who answers the red phone at 3:00AM....

The question is this:

Which candidate would you trust with the "nuke button" when becoming
President?
Think about the access to such power?

Think about changes that could affect the US?
Visiting permits, green cards, residential permits could be issued
for a different set of foreigners that could greatly impact our
lives?

Think about being "gagged" and becoming a police state not being
allowed to speak out about anything, good bye freedom of speech!

Think about your economy and jobs and "unexpected" changes that could
have a huge impact on them.

Think about "free-fall" that unpredictable wind of "change" can bring
you......

And then go and vote sensibly. PLEASE.
For the good of all. Please don't vote in someon who could
potentially turn our lives into a nightmare.

SOME THESE PEOPLE SEEM TO BE BLIND OR DEAF TO THE OBVIOUS FACT THAT HILARY CLINTON IS THE ONLY GUILTY PARTY HERE, AND STOP CONDEMNING OBAMA, WHO HAPPENS TO BE FOUND GUILTY THROUGH ASSOCCIATION (I AM TALKING ABOUT HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH A PASTOR WHO, DUE TO THE NATURE OF HIS PROFESSION, KNOWS LOTS OF OTHER PEOPLE, INCLUDING BILL CLINTON. NOW, ARE THEY ALL GUILTY? ARE THEY ALL UNPATRIOTIC? ARE THESE ARGUMENTS AGAINST OBAMA REALLY ABOUT TRUTH AND TRUTHFULNESS, OR IS THERE SOMETHING MORE DEEP-SEATED CLOUDING SOME PEOPLE’S JUDGEMENTS? IN ALL HONESTY, WHICH ONE IS MORE DANGEROUS? HILARY OR OBAMA? HOW MANY MORE LIES, OR "MIS-SPOKE" INCCIDENTS, SHOULD COME TO LIGHT BEFORE PEOPLE BEGIN TO WAKE UP FROM THEIR STUPORE AND REALIZE THAT HILARY CLINTON WOULD DO ANYTHING, INCLUDING TEARING APART THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND POLARIZING OUR PEOPLE, TO GET HERSELF ELECTED (BY THE WAY, THIS IS NOT ABOUT HER MIXING UP THE EVENTS. SHE NEVER FACED SNIPER FIRE, PERIOD. HOWEVER, SHE BROUGHT IT UP SEVERAL TIMES. IF THAT IS NOT A LIE, THEN, I DON’T KNOW WHAT IS). SHE RATIFIED NAFTA AND NEVER MENTIONED IT WHILE CAMPAIGNING IN OHIO. SHE HAS REFUSED TO RELEASE SOME DOCUMENTS WHICH COULD QUESTION HER CLAIMS REGARDING HER”EXPERIENCE”. SHE SUPPORTED THE INVASION OF IRAQ. SHE HARDLY MENTIONS ANYTHING ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE, WHICH, BY THE WAY, AFFECTS MORE AND MORE PEOPLE THAN ANYTHING ELSE. SHE LIES ABOUT HER ”EXPERIENCE”. SHE SIMPLY PLAYS THE FEAR AND THE ECONOMY GAME, BECAUSE SHE KINOWS THAT ONCE THE FOOD ON THE TABLE BEGINS TO SHRINK, SOME PEOPLE FAIL TO SEE THE BIGGER PICTURE. IT IS NOT THE MEDIA THAT DISTORT THE FACTS, RATHER, IT IS THE DIRE SHORTAGE OF TRUTH IN HILARY CLINTON’ STATMENTS WHICH SHOULD BE EXAMINED. The White House needs no more of the politics of the same ol’ same ol’, the governance of those anachronistic politicians, with their divisive policy of fear and deception. As a white university professor, I, along with my children and grandchildren, am honored and privileged to be part of this great history in the making. Now, will America rise to the occasion and embrace this great change and truly unite, showing the world that ONLY in America this can happen, and that it really is the land of the free? Or, will those whose better judgement is clouded by petty prejudices and misconceptions continue the divisive tradition of ‘Us’ and ‘Them’, propagated by those politicians who firmly believe in their politics of divide and rule?

Obama says: "For those of you who are just weary of the primary, and feeling kind of ground down or that it's like a Bataan death march, I just want everybody to know that the future is bright."

Oh poor Barack. You must be exhausted. All those fund-raising dinners, that private plane, that pesky crowd of minions at hand ready to grant your every wish and see to your every comfort?

Self-absorbed, whiny little snot - you just lost the votes of The Greatest Generation -- and their children.

Didn't they teach history in any of your schools?

If Hillary is running based on experience; what makes her think that she can win that agruement against McCain?

and he is insulting my black people also, he and crew have convienced the black community-a vote for him will make their lot better. it will not. He will owe so many people positions and favors because-when you do not know much or anything you have to rely on the kindness of others. and that is what he has had to do.
-----jgaw

I strongly disagree. I do think that anyone should give their vote away blindly. Everyone should choose who will be the very best candidate for them. I am black and am a very strong Barack supporter. First of all there is no one who has or will ever run for President that does not owe people a favor. (The Clintons are still paying off favors from '92 and racking up more as we speak) I support Barack because it fills my heart with joy to know that a man names Barack Obama could be our next commander-in-chief. I am voting for Barack because He inspires me to be a better American, a better man, and a better father. I will vote for Barack because when he talks, I beleive him. (I dare you to say that about Hillary with a straight face). I will vote for Barack becasue I feel we deserve a leader that wants to make our union more perferct, rather than to make their friends richer or get them out of jail. I will vote for Barack because i want the world to respect us again. I will vote for Barack becasue he is the right man for the job.

I find it insulting that you don't think your "black people" are smart enough to vote for him on his own merits.

BTW---Black people have been voting for white people since we earned the right to vote. A black man comes along that has a legit shot at the highest office in the land and we should be achamed to vote for him? You sipped too much of that Clinton Kool-Aid.

hey everyone...what make Hillary qualified?

Where have you people been?..
Are you paying attention or just listening to your local news outlets.
Bill & Hillary Clinton attended jeremiah wright's church and even invited him to the white house do some research and see what i'm talking about.
What do you mean when one states it's not his turn?.. I thought that anyone over 35 can run for the presidency? And as far as Mr. Obama not being qualified what has Hillary done during her 8 yrs. iIn the white house?.. She had no say in policy or did she veto any policies that came across bill's desk?... Did she sit-in at high level meetings?.. i think not... People pay attention do not let the media dupe you.. I actually like Hillary and had a chance to meet her and Bill here in NY last year but i ddon't think she is the one.. Mr. Obama has new ideas and i'm sure he'll assemble an administration that will be top shelf and all he has to do is make major decisions like that FOOL that we have in office now and what Bill did during his reign it's not the presidency...IT's the PEOPLE THAT HE CHOOSES to be apart of his team that will help him lead this country out of the shame and hate that BUSH has put us in. We are HATED around the world because of this man and all he is thinking about is his OIL BUDDIES that have a major stake on what's going on in this crazy world that's why we are in IRAN.. Once Again.. I'll Ask are you paying attention!

I really get a kick out of reading all of you bickering back and forth. You all sound like a bunch of elementary school kids....and "bullies", at that. No wonder the world is in such bad shape, with all this "hatred" from people like you all. What ever happened to "love one another"? I guess this is what happens when you take religion out of schools...you see how you act. The terrorists said we would destroy ourselves from "within"...it is definitely happening. Sit back, read and listen to all the previous comments. Where does all this "hatred" come from? Some of you need to read your bible and "cool down". This is just an election......not the end of the world! But the way all you "fuss and carry on"...then maybe it is???? I will pray for you all.....you definitely need someone to. God Bless You all....you need it.

and he is insulting my black people also, he and crew have convienced the black community-a vote for him will make their lot better. it will not. He will owe so many people positions and favors because-when you do not know much or anything you have to rely on the kindness of others. and that is what he has had to do.
Black Brother and Sister in PA, NC,
WVA, Indiana, and others left to vote please do not give your vote away blindly-what has he said he will do to help our community. Hillary has been shoulder to shoulder working on issues that help poor and black people-let obama go back to chicago and increase his political resume by doing something for the people in his state, first.
Vote for the most qualified-that is how your lot in life will change. not because of the color of a person skin.
Vote Hillary-in your best interest

Sorry, Soup. They won't listen to you. the masses are to riled up with pitch forks and torches and nothing's going to stop them until they get to Dr. Frankenstein's castle...even if they destroy the village to get there.

I don't blame Mrs Pepitone for being so angry at Obama.After all,Obamas pastor called her and all Italians "garlic noses."Thus far Obama has managed to insult Italians,Jews,and all white people in general.Is this a way to unite our country?

the more obama opens his mouth and has to backtrack on first one thing and then another-clearly shows he only has HIS and his handlers interest at heart.
When critizing Hillary I wish obama supporters would start their sentences off: saying-He should win because his plan for (you fill in the issue) is this or that.
But you can't because he has to wait until hillary puts out her plan.
because he only copies hillary
Hillary is smarter than Obama. she has a good command of the issues-and he stumbles when asked a question about the issues. He only has his own interest at heart.

Damn right it's Hillary's turn to be President .... because she is the most qualified person TODAY. This country is in a complex mess right now -- economic recession, declinding education standards, shattered foreign relations, and a failing war. Obama is completely unqualified TODAY to do anything except insire people through rhetroic ... and at the end of the day, though, what does this rhetoric accomplish? How does inspiring people change the economy? or repair foreign relations? or decrease costs in the health care system? It does NOT. What works is hard, tenacious fighting ... and we all know from the past few weeks that Hillary Clinton is a hard-nosed, tenacious fighter (no one can dispute that). You may not want to go out for a beer with her and call her your 'pal' .... but I'd rather have Hillary in the White House answering that phone at 3 am (while I'm out drinking beer with my pal Obama)! Besides, there is NO doubt that with Hillary as the nominee, Barack Obama will be her running mate (it's her logical choice). We get Hillary today, and Barack Obama will gain 8 years of experience to earn HIS turn at the presidency (when he is ready) in 2016. By then, Hillary will have cleaned up all these messes, and Barack can take us to a higher level of unification and peace. Think about it, people .... killer democratic presidents from 2008 to 2024. What a wonderful world ....

Hillary will be our next president because the country needs her.
Obama is one of those ultra liberals that believes in receiving something for nothing.He is simply not ready to be president and yes Hillary has earned it.

One more thing: the position of President is NOT an entitlement, want it though they may. It is a position of willing servitude. The President of The United States is in the service of the People of The United States, not the other way around. It is the highest honor to be elected to that position, but lest these politicans forget ( and to often the people forget as well), it is a position that can also be taken away. That McCain, Clinton, and Obama wish to be "hired" for that position is noble. BUT IT AIN'T ENTITLED TO ANYONE! I don't care who you are. So I say again: get off the Enquire-style crack the media's been putting in the Kool-Aid and talk about the issues. Vote for who you want WITHOUT the name calling and hateful negativity because if you don't, the ground your party sits on (with it's renewed enthusiasm to get more of its constituents engaged in politics again) won't be able to grow another thing for a decade, so irradiated it will be. We Independents will be watching.

I don't know if American's problems are based on too much education. I remember the founding fathers of this nation saying, "You don't have to be a scholar, a doctor, teacher, e.t.c" to become a president of this great nation. That all that is required is a heart full of love. I am simply saying that anyone of us can be the president of the USA as long as we know for a fact that we are all created equal in the site of God, and that what ever is good for Mr. A, should be good also for Mr. B, and vice versa. The issue of experience on Sen. Hilary's part is baseless the fact is that she has no pure judgment when it comes to making decisions, her judgment is clouded by the needs coming from the lobbyist sponsoring her campaign as long as she has those ties she can not lift America out of this mess. Obama on the other hand has made decision that mattered most to you and I, stopping the members of the house from eating free meals at the expense of our birthright, and making well know to us that the war in Iraq will use up our social security savings and make indebted to the rest of the world. To me that is pure judgment, that is well thought of. Please people open your eyes and see the truth and not the experience. Sen. Hilary is a pure politician, while Obama has our interest at heart.

Well at least 'Salad' read my post and didn't get caught in this web of destruction. Maybe that's what's wrong with our country - we're so hellbent on being right we can't see when we are wrong. People put away the guns, drop the slanders, stop the bickering - your pride isn't at stake here. This is an election where we are to debate topics - nothing more. You are being spun and it's not by the other candidates. It's by the media and by dishonest blogging. Stop and do your own research. Don't let Wolf or someone else tell you what to think. That item on your head is useful for something other than a megaphone. Use it and we'll become a better society - NO MATTER WHO WINS. We have the power to tell THEM what we want. We have the power to HAVE our country back. This isn't about who is the figure head at the moment it's about us and what we can do. If we're always berating one another we'll never see past ANY OF THEIR LIES. And yes they all have them just like I would if I were in that type of spotlight. Close your mouths, open your ears, and your mind will follow. Be smart and stop acting like we're in elementary school.
You know what - Screw it you can have this sinking ship I'm off to somewhere were I can make my own choices and have a better life. The elite class has succeeded in creating a country of self-righteous dupes who will destroy each other to the THEIR way. Look around you what are we fighting about? This is like arguing over the toilet seat placement - WORTHLESS. I can only say this - today I am ashamed to be even remotely involved with our society. Now before you say I'm anti-american think about the EXACT wording I used. I am for what the country stands for as a Democracy. I believe in Equality for EVERYONE. I believe in the Constitution. I believe in Free Markets. I don't believe in destroying anyone to "get mine" or make my point. Nor do I believe that anyone else should be undermining me with that type of action. Our society is destroying itself with our actions. Please Please stop this nonsense before we self implode.

Obama is the one who thinks it is his turn to be president because he is black...It is the old race card again..I am black so I deserve every thing or else. He is a Jesse Jackson clone..

NO OBAMA TODAY, NO OBAMA TOMORROW, NO OBAMA NEXT MONTH and NO OBAMA IN 08..

Well, let's see how racist we can get. It's no wonder other countries are sitting back and laughing at us. If this is the sort of rhetoric Stella & Mariann Pepitone are taking into the voting booth, I can only say this country is headed for more strife and grief. So much for the "Great American Melting Pot" our beautiful country stands for. Word of advice ladies: pick your candidate for the issues they stand for and leave the racist crap out of it; the country doesn't need it. Meanwhile, cooler and far more calmer and "maturer" heads (independent/democratic/republican)will let the politics sort itslef out (minus all the media hoopla you two seem to buy in to and get worked up over...on BOTH candidates)...and make our decision in November.

I have been a democrat for a long time
but if Obama is the nomienee in November
I will not vote at all- Obama is not following the script of Kinnedy or Carter he is following Bushes script-he is also arrogant.
I think he should have a swit made of red,white and blue.Whats with all the flags be hind him every time he talk to a group.
What has Obama done to deserve to be Presedent? does Obama think that he is entitle to be President because he is half black. If Clinton drops out of the race and Obama wins--- it will not unite the democratic party or the Country.But it will put McCan in the white house.

Obama is sooo enjoyable to watch. A++ Charisma -- much more camara friendly than either Clinton or McCain. The tv media should get behind his presidency -- if for no other reason than that he will be great for their ratings.

Lets vet the candidates by any other criteria that the Clintons suggest except the criteria defined in the constitution.

Obama can and most likely will win in November.

The Clinton legacy will not win this election.

Best line I've read in weeks. Wish I could credit the original source:

"Hillary claiming executive experience is like Yoko claiming to have been a Beatle."

Still ROTFLMAO

What give Obama the idea that he should be president. He hasn't been around long enough to get the experience and knowledge to run this country. Hillary and McCain can throw rings around him when it comes to intelligence. Obama wouldn't know what to do from day one. His pep talk copied speeches has the white and black people fooled. But I am no way fooled by him. I can read him like a book without the cover. He uses some of Hillary's words in a round about way and other president's. He has the nerve to campaign for president of this country and attending a racist church for 20 years. But it shouldn't surprise me, he was a racist as a young boy and it is in his book. He did not like the white people and yet the white people are dumb enough and I mean dumb, to vote for him. They should vote for their own race like the blacks vote for Obama. And knowing his pastor was anti-american they shouldn't vote for him at all.

Yes, it's Hillary's turn, so waht?

It's obvious that she feels like it's her turn and that he's encroaching on what she is entitled to. It's been clear to me since the beginning that she resents him having the nerve to run and challenge what she sees as rightfully hers. Obama is simply stating the obvious here.

Obama wouldn't have enough delegates to win the nomination either, remember? Also remember how the general elections work - we don't elect Presidents in November based on state-primaries or popular vote. It's the Electoral College. What looks like entitlement to me is, someone who decided to run for President, even though he hasn't completed his first Senate term, and even though he and all of his handlers knew that it would fragment the Democratic party. He should have waited HIS TURN for the good of the party and the good of the Country. Instead, we now see that he and his supporters are trying to strong-arm her and ruin her career, because she is inconveniently standing in the way of his ambitions. Just think about how he refers to Senator Clinton at times (as does the media who adore him) - they say "The Clintons". Everything with this guy is a soft spin with the impact of a bunker-buster. The kool-aid drinkers will wake up soon and remember that nobody rises so far, so fast, in American politics without playing dirty.

as a black woman, i too want a black president in the white house before I die.but I want one in whom everyone can see and have no doubt-that person is the most qualified of all the candidates. obama is not that person.
Hillary runs cirlces around obama and mccain when it comes to the issues.
You obama supporters may not need better healtcare-or have a concern about educating your children. well I do
and I have looked at all the plans (well mccain does not have one yet) but obama copied hillary. and Hillary is the only one speaking to and has a plan
I just heard on cnn a lady in ohio was talking about losing her job and needing cobra ins. and the reporter asked another are any of the candidates speaking to this economy problem and the other reporter said NO. will that is a lie. Hillary has been speaking to wwhat she will do to get this country up and running again. While obama was first marred in the rev. wright fiasco, Hillary gave a speech and answered questions about the economy and foreign affairs. the tv reports are biased. I suggest you get your news from the bbc-maybe they haven't been tainted yet. Hillary has told what she is going to do for the economy and how she will pay for it. stop with the I will not vote for her because of bill and monica.
Vote for her because it is going to be in your best interest to do so. Hold your nose and vote for Hillary-in the next four years your wallet will thank you for it...

WHY ALL THE FUSS. THE WAY THE DEMS ARE GOING JOHN McCAIN IS A SHOO-IN. BY NOV BOTH SENATORS CLINTON & OBAMA WILL SHOOT THEMSELVES IN THE FOOT AGAIN, AGAIN & AGAIN & AGAIN.
TO BAD BECAUSE WE DON'T NEED ANOTHER G BUSH IN THE WHITEHOUSE.

Marianne Pepitone (and others)-- who are you to know for a fact that Obama wants control of this country. And how do you know that the time is not right for the USA to have a "black" president? the point is that Mr. Obama represents the new "post-babyboom generation" perspective on America. All you babyboomers out there. You have had your chances at electing presidents, and you also had your direct influence in the shaping of America. Now it comes to the younger generation to set a new course for America. Mr. Obama is quite simply one of the sharpest, smartest and hippest individuals we have ever had running for the oval office. He reminds me of John F. Kennedy because of his style and grace and mannerism.
Hilary on the contrary, along with her daughter, whom I cannot stand, is all about "I deserve it." Why does she deserve the presidency? After all, she and her spouse are flat out liars. the whole family for that matter is composed of liars. I am certain that even Hilary was behind Bill Clinton lying about Monica Lewinsky. All you Hilary supporters out there: look deep into her eyes and into her soul, and you will find a trouble, frustrated little girl, who probably grew up in a world of constant lying and constant frustrations for not "getting the guy," for not "getting the A's" when she deserved them, and for not becoming the "class president" or something along those lines. The woman is all about lies and frustrations. She is so upset right now; she cannot believe that a negro, a black man, an African-American (partially) is beating her. Obama has "it," and Hilary does not.

Give me a beak. If anyone thinks that the presidency is owed to him, it's Obama. His handlers have been grooming him for this ever since they cleared the ballot for his first term state senate "win" in Illinois. Fluffing up his legislative "wins" all in the last year of his second state senate term in Illinois. Those bills he takes credit for, were primarily fought for years by Democrats other than him in the legislature. Please, Senator Obama didn't even do the job he's already been elected to as a US Senator. Why does he think he's earned the right to be president now? Senator Clinton on the other hand, is respected as one of the hardest working Senators on the Hill. Respected by both Democrats and Republicans. She's running for President on her years of hard work. Obama is running on a propped up record... Just words do not a Commander in Chief make.

Obama wants to win because not only does he want to make history he wants control of this country. I hope the superdelegates do what they said they would do and block his nomination. This country isn't ready for him, maybe 10 years from now. He shouldn't even be a senator since he played dirty pool to win. He is bad news all the way around and the white people of this country better wake up or we are going into a disaster if he is elected. His pastor was stopped in a hurry so if he is not the nominee and there are riots this country will take care of that fast.

Paul-DC: The media classify's Obama as being black but he is not black or white he is Mulatto. That is the name for children from black and white marriages. Even though they don't use it anymore it still exists. How could he be called black when he is half white. The media needs to get more educated on black people. Obama would love to be 100% black. I read some of his statements in his book Dreams of His Father and he was very racial at that time. I can see why he belonged to a racist church. He fits right in. I don't know why he wrote a book like that when he barely knew who his father was. His father didn't have dreams for him, his father was busy with three more marriages in Kenya.

The thing I most intensely dislike about Hillary is her sense of entitlement that the presidency is owed to her, and her fierce competitiveness combined with long-held ambitions to be the first woman president. I would love to elect a woman president, but just not her. I dislike her intensely. If she becomes the nominee, I don't think I will be able to vote for her, even though I am have been a registered Democrat for 30 years.

Right on Stella. He has the nerve to say what he did about the Italian's. He has a big mouth and a small head and his mouth got him into trouble because his life was threaten so he had to cancel his sermon dates. Its about time someone did something to him. Italian's know how to cook and make the best food out. I come from the near West side of Chicago, near Taylor Street and I remember when King was marching, that was one street he skipped along with Cicero.

I looked at the political positions of all three candidates. I didn’t like any of them but disliked McCain’s the least. Obama and Clinton have identical platforms. I looked at personality and didn’t like any of them. I looked at ethics and while McCain is far from perfect he’s less undesirable than Obama or Clinton. I looked at age, McCain is too old and Obama is too young. I looked at experience, McCain has much more than the other two put together. I looked at military record McCain has one, the other two don’t.

After all that I looked at border security and the illegal alien problem. I thought about what the American citizens want and what the politicians are willing to give us. The only conclusion that I could come up with was that the democracy our parents supposedly knew no longer exists. Does it really matter who we vote for or has it already been decided?

Nothing is owed to Obama not even the senate seat he has and got by playing dirty pool to the woman that was running against him. The public is not aware of the dirty tricks he can pool because he plays the goody goody two shoes person but has a background of wheeling and dealing with Rezko. I agree with the superdelegates stand maybe that's how we can get rid of him.

Obama cannot win in November. Lifelong Dems I poll in FL will never vote for him. Another 4 years of Republicans. I am ticked at the DNC - Floridians - the people of the state - never chose to have the primary early so our vote wouldn't count. Politicians decided this and now the people pay! If FL and MI votes were counted, Obama would be gone by now.

Disgusted

Elijah 112668, thank you very much for this hysterical article. I laughed at it, but I was also angry because these people have nothing better to do than write this sort of trash. I have been married for 5 1/2 years, and my husband and I argue often, sometimes every day. We argue about little childish things, like why didn't we go to see a movie. We got married when I was 21 and he was 19.5 (he turned 20, 4 months after we got married). All marriages are different. We are both working on estanlishing high powered careers and that's why fights between us occur more often. Come on, let's be honest with each other, all couples have their share of fights. It's all part of life. Hillary and Bill love each other very much, and I am very angry and surprised how so many voters are saying that Hillary stayed with Bill after Monica scandal just because she wanted to become President. I find it very ridiculous and solely based on jealousy. Why can't we be happy with what we have? If my husband would have cheated on me, I would forgive him too. It might be different for you, but let's stop judging other people based on their own choices in life.

I would not be among Democratic voters, if it were not for Senator Obama. It is not that it would be sour grapes for me to refuse to vote for Senator Clinton, if she were to manage to hack the nomination. I would never have voted for her under any circumstances. Senator Clinton's only qualification to be in this race is ruthless ambition. The Party and the country would be better served if she ended her scorched-earth policy tomorrow, but that is outside the parameters of her machine politician's mind. H.C. is not going to win the nomination , but she can succeed at damaging the Democratic Party's best hope for victory. Given her proclivities, she might steal the nomination with lawyer tricks. that would hand-carry the election to the Republicans for four more years of McBush. What are the 'leaders" of the Democratic Party thinking to allow Hillary Clinton and her multiple -personality campaign to continue derailing the future of the party? This is like comedy central for Karl Rove.... "Look Ma no hands... I can get the Democrats to perform dirty tricks on themselves." Too bad that this dumb show comes at a time when our country is in such desperate need of leadership.

obama says he's sure by november we'll all be united - he means behind him. dream on, obama. the polls tell you otherwise, but you choose not to believe them. you are wrong.

spoken by a lifelong dem, who's voted straight dem ticket for 4 decades. will now vote mccain. (and obamaites, don't waste your breath calling me names for my opinion - i've seen the hateful blogs already. y'all never heard of democracy? we're all entitled to vote how we choose).

Wow i agree with 'soup' this blog is out of control it should take no more than one posting per article to get your view put forward.... God all mighty where is Walter Cronkit or Edward R. Murrow when you need them, way to much talk about old retired Black preachers and Bosnia head gear worn by first ladies.... have Obama or Clinton ever done anything worth while? or Mccain for that matter. Probably. According to most of the post i am reading they either have horns growing out of their heads or maybe they hide angelic wings... do all 3 of these candidates love their Country?? Yes of Course they do!! i don't think they would be honored with secret service protection if the didn't... you take a lot of crap and risk when running for top office and lets forget about whose turn it is to be President its nobody's turn. Its the 'peoples turn' to choose some one to represent us to the world and each other lets not waste our freedom of speech on a bunch of hype and Jerry Springer nonsense, lets find out what's good about these people and what they may do or not do as Commander and Chief.

Obama is so wrong on this. IT IS AMERICA'S TIME FOR HILLARY TO BE PRESIDENT. WE NEED HER!

There is no such thing as "turns" as if being the President is a game or some "entitlement" as Gov. Richardson put it. Hillary is constantly claiming Obama lacks of experience, but he has been an elected official longer than her. I beleive Obama will make mistakes just like All the other Presidents before him, but at least his intelligence will keep those at a minimum. Hillary is just strange.

The clear thing from this post is that most Americans can't sustain an intelligent conversation. Woman, Wright, Black Guy, Ugly - this is the stuff you'd expect to come from a grade school compound. Perhaps a lot of grown up kids are running around the cyberworld. China will be on top by 2050.

Obama has more years of elected office and is inspiring. Hillary was publicly humiliated by her shameless husband. TO some that sounds about even.

When the Clinton administration left, there was a $250 billion surplus. Now, there’s almost a $3 trillion deficit.

The military has been so depleted by this war. We’re spending $343 million dollars a day to build roads in Iraq and we’re not spending money on the projects that are so important.

And who can solve that problem – Hillary!

I wonder how much of this infighting on these blogs is being created by Rep undermining? It seems that there are quite a few hate filled remarks from people who have never and will never meet. Just calm it down and discuss what is important.
The nation - not if your team wins! Vote for who you want and hopefully you win, but if not then continue with the person who fits closest to your views - regardless of party or affiliation. We have to right the ship and soon or we'll all be owned by China soon.
Anyone want to discuss:
The War
The Economy
Healthcare
Education
Everything else is just fodder.
Read each person's plan, their viewpoints, and what they've accomplished in their entire lives not just while they were dependent on voters. Disregard their pastor's, husband, and wives as we all know they aren't who will be making the final decisions. The media is just using these outside forces to keep their blogs moving for more advertising profits. Know who is really playing the games and how selective they are in directing these arguments for their own revenue.

first of all-she has more experience that obama simple because she has been doing public service longer than obama-
second-during her public service she has been paying attention-helping to investigate and formulate policy-she has been a member of many think-tanks that work to discover why we have a certain social problem and how to solve it. not to mention the service she has had as first lady of arkansas, and first lady of this country. and she was giving the teas and conducting tours and other first lady duties, but she did a lot more-and this was noted while she was in the white house by the news media when they were all in awe of the clintons-and she runs circles around obama and mccain on discussing solutions for the issues that affect us today. The clintons are human beings just like the rest of us. and I think so many of people who run these people down are just jealous because they are so smart and can talk about the issues. now what gets me is as women we should identify with what she is trying to do and be pulling for her-because we have all been there. But here is a woman at the top of her game in her chosen profession-and she is fighting hard to just try to help american who need help-now many of you it does not matter who is in the white house-but for the poor and middle class people-you should want a smart articulate woman in there working for these people-Hillary knows what to do for this economy-yes we need racial unity-as I said as a black woman what I need more right now is someone who know what to do about this economy
mccain doe not. obama copies hillary.
and some of you well off people should be wanting someone in there that knows what to do with this economy too. because if she can help get jobs for some of the out of work people especially the young, that will be one less young person that is going to rob or break into your house. simple because they feel they have no other choice. Let Hillary get this country back up and running again.
and as far as race relations go
Obama and his handlers axelrod, bradley,kerry, dean,kennedy and others
they all remind me of the people of the late 60 and I am (53 this year) when I was a girl-they had black people come into the neighborhood and start progams and the community suffered because of mismanagement-and incompetence. and that is what we have now with obama and 1970's style slick empty vessel politician who is all talk.
Obama said he was not ready to be president-but the handlers put him up as the spoiler for hillary.
If he had not entered the race Hillary would be campaigning against mccain right now and she would be winning.because she has the answers and he doe not.
Dean is a obama supporter also-and he does not know what he is doing
this is how much he & co. wanted to spoil it for the democratic party;
Why would you let a woman and a black person run for president in the same year. two groups of people who had to fight so hard to get the vote.
all they could see was trying to beat hillary-gotta beat hillary
what they didn't see was this mess they have created.
If hillary-the smartest one is not nominated-yes she will lose and she will go back to doing the good work she has always done for americans
if obama wins-the country loses
if mccain wins-the country loses
a win for hillary now is a win for the country.
hillary is fighting for the poor and working class people of american
obama is copying and talking about it.
and don't worry about obama supporters rioting because he didn't win.
hillary will put them to work and they will be fine.
the people who are voting blindly for obama will riot if he wins and they do not get anything from him-for giving him their vote.
but the sad thing is-he has not promised them anything.

Obama is mentored by Pastor Wright.

This is very scary.

Gee, Clinton supporters are just threatening not to support the Democratic nominee in the event we feel her opponent,his supporters and a faction within the DNC are attempting to sideline her campaign before the remaining contests are held. Obama supporters, on the other hand, are threatening riots in the street, if their candidate isn't anointed. So much for bringing people together.

I understand Obama wants to win but I wondered what he stands for. He seems to be defined more by what he is against. He is against Washington. He is against Hillary Clinton. He is against Bill Clinton. He is against the voters in Mi and Fl. He is against the super delegates. He is against falling in behind a strong candidate from day one. When the Democratic Party figures out they’ve left solid ground for a bird in the bush, it may be too late. You have to wonder why the elders in the party would spin the wheel. Clinton is easy to read. She is kind of like a Churchill who offers nothing but more then the blood sweat and tears speech. In the future the party may be defined more as a desultory body continually in search of green pastures.

BKMC, I just wanted you to know that I enjoy reading your posts. You know what you're talking about. Some people just don't get it though and it's so frustrating

And what exactly has Hillary done to deserve to be president. And who are you kidding. Hillary thinks she is entitled to be the next president. She thought she would have this all wrapped up by super Tuesday. We want change not more of the same.
