In Inboxes This Morning

torch:
your comments are right on. I am a Sen. clinton supporter, and I will not vote for obama for the very reason i didn't vote for him during the primarys.
to me he was a weak candidate against sen. clinton. and he will be weak against mccain. i will vote for mccain,
as an african american female, I wanted the first black president to be one NO ONE Could deny was the RIGHT one among black,white or otherwise.
Obama cannot think on his feet. he cannot take questions off the cuff. and if he does not have a prepared speech, he messes up something, and always has to come back and "make something clear"
or have some of his surrogates come out and clarify.

the unpatriotic people of this country are the people of the msm, they helped throw this election, with their bias against sen. clinton. and in doing so
will put our country in the hands of either obama or mccain-which will make the country weaker and will not put the country back on the right track, and will not restore what was our good position in the world, as it would have been if sen. clinton had been president.

it is really sad and to bad for our country. the voters did not try to see the big picture.

JustSaying: How can the Obama supporters understand anything when I haven't come across one yet who can name his accomplishments.

In fact, I had an animated discussion with a representative at the DNC today. At one point, when she was telling me that "Obama has done great things", I had to stop her and say "Obama has done some good things, but he hasn't done anything great. I defy you to name one great thing he's done. Go ahead."

This was followed by silence at first, then she blurted out "Well he's run a great campaign!" I had to inform her that Axelrod ran Obama's campaign, and that Axelrod is the spokesperson of the nefarious Chicago "boss" Davey. She didn't know this.

Then it emerged that she's never read either Obama's or Hillary's biography, and she knows nothing about their respective voting records or legislative histories. And this, folks, is a staff member with the DNC.

Truly frightening, yes?

Never Obama!

Whatever she says it isn't going to help Obama. Many thousands of us will never vote for him for the following reasons.

1) The unprecedented sexist hate speech against and stonewalling of Hillary in the Media. Despite this and being outspent by 50 million, she won the popular vote. But we can't and won't condone this by "falling in line"

2) The DNC's redistribution of the delegates in MI & the cutting in half of Florida's delegate vote. We cannot and will not condone this precedent. It's a terrible and dangerous violation of the corner stone principle upon which our democracy was founded. If the vote becomes so meaningless - so fluid and open to tampering by one group with special interests, totalitarianism is right around the corner.

We are not sheep, like Obama's followers. We respect Hillary immensely, but this has never been about Hillary per se. It's been about protecting American, restoring the checks and balances in the halls of power, restoring the middle class, and changing focus to renewable resources, etc. Hillary has the best plans to execute these changes. And more to the point, her record shows she can do this things, and she will do these things.

Obama has done nothing great - except for himself. He's weak, ineffective, and two-faced. Don't believe me? Why not actually study his voting record and legislative record in detail?

Are you listening DNC? NEVER OBAMA!

i know it is late to post this, but
kate, you HATE sen. clinton, why should she help obama,
michelle does not want her, you do you as a obama supporter want her?

it is a shame that the poor obama supporters didn't understand that sen. clinton plan is much better overall for them.

i don't think they understand it at all.

Fired Up-
If you are in this for the healthcare you had better read his policy as compared to Hillary's. She mandated everyone join with help for those who couldn't afford it. Obama's plan does not mandate that everyone join. If you didn't need a mandate to get this done then we would have had it already!

I am amazed how the Obama people still think they have a shot at this, and how they are sticking to their strategy of hate and derision. As early as March 30% of Clinton backers indicated in exit polls they would never back Obama. Warning sign! Instead of moving to court them, his supporters told Clinton supporters that they were dried up vaginas, racist, uneducated.

Then when the DNC knee-capped Clinton last week in an overt move to ensure Obama was their baby, well, the neoliberals have proven they have learned it all at the breast of the neocons.

All you people telling Clinton backers that we must not be true Democrats - you're right! We thought true Democrats cared about everyone who wasn't rich-white-guy-Republican. We thought true Democrats cared about fairness, equality, being honest, inclusiveness.

We've learned. The new Democratic party showed us we don't count, and that they don't want a qualified strong centrist.

You sent us away. But the Republicans, against their neocon leanings, have put up a strong qualified centrist.

Obama supporters and the DNC told us to get lost - we're not wanted.

Message received. Hello McCain.

True Democrat? Is that what you folks think you are? If so, count me out.

Buying my Nobama t-shirt and signing up for 'Democrats for McCain' now...

Okay all her supporters are going to back her and Obama...............

YOU WILL NEVER HEAR FROM US AGAIN!

Gee, Obama just sputtered over the finish line with half of the party supporting him and half of the party having supported Clinton. We've just witnessed an evening of historic significance, and I like many others am very proud of that fact. Having said that though he is only now running one point behind McCain in Gallup Poll and two points ahead of him in the Rasmussen. And the Dems think they can afford to even lose one Clinton supporter? Given the economy and Iraq and his having just come off a major win and he's pretty much at a tie with the Republican opponent? The one thing you can always count on the Dems for is that you can take a year when Mickey Mouse should be able to win and somehow the Dems will screw it up and pick a candidate who won't win. I am so glad I am officially dropping from the Democratic party and going independet.

Consider that McCain has no
plan for victory in Iraq, he
just wants to stay there for
a hundred years. Consider
that he has no understanding
of the economy. Consider his
ancient, advanced, old age.

He's a candidate with one
foot in the grave and the
other on a banana peel.

"For once in my adult life, I can now say, "I am proud to be an American".....Because.....My Husband Will Be President"!!!!

The North Vietnamese wanted
to let McCain go early
during his captivity out of
professional regard when
they found out he was the
son of a four-star
U. S. Navy admiral.

He declined.

Was he sane then? Is he sane
now?

Senile Supporter:

It has EVERYTHING to with it. He is tried in fire and proven to be true.

McCain 08!

How many times has McCain been married? Oh, he left his wife and kids for a younger rich wife who financed his congressional campaigns. Those are some strong family values there. Shows great judgement.

It's astonishing how many of those paragraphs begin with the word "I".

Why is anybody surprised at Hillary and her 'tude' ? She started this way back when, when she stopped congradulating Obama on his Wins back around SC - breaking over 50 years of tradition in Politics. Obama, always one to follow the rules and decorum, never forgot his show his Class and never missed congradulating her.

The Primary rules were all modified over the last 15 years to fit Clinton ideas. The Caucus rules were written by Harold Ickes under Clinton mandates. Obama followed DNC rules set out by the Clintons and agreed by all before the start of the Primary Season, including Penalizing FLA and MI. He even tried to follow the DNC judgement on FLA and MI, removing his name. FLA told all Candidates that it was too late to remove their names but MI allowed it with a Fee. Only Dodd was with Clinton in MI because he said he did not want to pay a Fee. I guess Clinton was too broke at that time !

Hillary doesn't "need" to do anything. She has every right to wait until the convention if she wishes. However, she will suspend her race and work for the DNC and Obama as hard as she can and with class. Unfortunally, they worked just as hard to, with no class, keep her off the ticket. Wonder what Obama's supporters would be hollowering if he had came so close and lost. An unacceptable group has taken over the DNC, and that's why her supporters will defect in mass.

all you desperate little republicans still here trying to devide the democratic party......

You guys are sad ! all of Hillarys supporter are over at Barack Obama's website ! There coming on board we will be united and the republicans will be wipped out this election...

Change is Coming
Hillary is going to campaign her but off ! She is going to be the person in charge of putting Obama's health plan into action ! She is going to campaign for all of us! We are going to win...

America is comming back !

ANd I will stick to my guns when I say, that it was Obamas campaign that brought racism and sexism into the campaign. They played it well.

**********************************
That is what they did in Massachusetts, the Dem party played the same playbill. I was a sucker then but not now.
We have a useless BLACK governor now with no clout to get the OTHER DEMS to GOVERN! They savaged the Woman Republican. I wish I had voted for her, she did all the hard stuff when Romney was here, when he showed up that is, Patrick is OTL most days too.

HP Boston,

Hmmm....Who is in charge of running the Federal Government? The GOP and BUSH. They control all of the areas you are critical of. Call and write a letter to the GOP and George Bush with your complaints. Keep in mind their response to you and public opinion is: So!
