Clinton-Obama Psychodrama

I supported Hillary in the primaries, but I realize that now it's time to turn the page and make sure we get a Democrat back in the White House. I have put aside any feelings of frustration I might have had, and I am now firmly behind Obama. We need to come together as a party. Don't buy into the messages of hate and fear that McSame is advertising. We are stronger together. There isn't a shred of real difference between Clinton and Obama on the issues.

I am a Republican who will be voting for change in this election. We need an inexperienced, intelligent, nuanced candidate. We have all seen just where too much experience in Washington gets you. Just look at the last eight years. Do you really want 4 more years of Bush?

It's all about getting a Democrat in the White House, that's it, that's the bottom line here. You democrat can all say what you want as far a as Barack being better than McCain for whatever your reasons, but honestly if it was Clinton or any other dem that won the primary you would be required to spout the same arguuements about McCain being bad for America. The is no reasoning or intelligence in your arguements. Better qualifications be damned, the only qualification you have is whether teh candidate is a democrat.

Admit it, move on and shut up!

Great comment Jennie! I agree completely!
I certainly don't want another arrogant and inexperienced president, even if he is from the other side.
No thank you.
If you take the advice... "Believe none of what you hear and only half of what you see", John Mccain will be the obvious choice and John Mccain will be getting my vote.

I see this notion that people are in denial and frankly irrational about the creepy CLintons being called post rational. One has to admit that reason is no longer the issue for most voters.

Hillary was knocked off by an obscure rookie. I think the creepy Clinton camp are unwilling to come to terms with the fact that Hillary was not a good candidate.

Can we give it a rest already?

Obama is a puppet.Plain and Simple. I hope all you Obamanuts ARE WILLING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOU IRRATIONAL AND CRAZED SUPPORT OF YOUR GOD. If you had any brains you would stop touting HIS MINOR COMMUNITY SERVICE WORK AND DO SOME RESEARCH INTO THE FACTS. NOT BELIEVE HOOK LINE AND SINKLER HIS CHOSEN BS NARRATIVE.

I think we should all be collecting names of politicians who behaved badly and vote them and their pundits out of office.

The Glamour mag bit on the many royale colors of creepy Hillary's pant suits further underscores the dysfunction of that whole creepy Clinton camp. She was and is totally unqualified for any job in public service. Put her next to any great woman leader and Hillary is not even close in her ability to inspire or be a figure head. Angela Merkel from Germany comes to mind.

Voting for Hillary because creepy Bill Clinton is also mentally ill never made sense.

Riley, you are not worried about America. You are worried about something else. You feel comfortable naming all of Obama "debts", how about naming all of McCain buddies who involved in many economical, religion and lobbing scandals. Let's see who's list is bigger!

I rest my case!

We should all take this election seriously and during the campaign buildup, make our positions known on the many issues facing this country. I am a conservative and dead set against tax increases and the expansion of government. My biggest issue is with both parties having expanded the US government to where it is 43% of the annual GNP of the US! Government spending growth is 8X the growth of the economy. The billions of defense spending is only about 5% of the federal budget. Social spending is out of control. Thanks for the soapbox. I encourage you to read information detail of both conservative and liberal sources to understand where your tax dollars go. Here’s one that makes it very clear what is happening. Yes this is another legacy you are leaving your grandchildren….

Sarah, those words describe what you feel because you are dead wrong in every argument that you are trying to prove yourself.
Obama and Mccain couldn't figure out schedule for town hall meetings.
McCain is 25 years older and that's why he has more experience. But he was a member of Congress, lawmaker. He wasn't a general. He wasn't a governor. So what is his credentials. Obama's list of advisers in international affairs includes big names, people who were giving advises to presidents Carter and Clinton.
etc.. I can continue but what's the point. You are looking for excuses not to vote for Obama and democrats and you found it. Clinton is going to vote for OBama, but her supporters don't. That's some twisted logic out here..

No matter which way you spell it... It ain't happenin' this time around.

You don't even have enough respect to get the spelling of the nominee's name right! It's Barack with one "r!"

I suspect that, given the intensity of these comments, the repubs are more than a little concerned over the obvious intelligence, vision, and humanness evident in the Democratic Party.

An Obama-Rezko-Biden connection.

Was Biden vetted at all-or does Obama think there are no consequences to his corrupt associations.

Wright, Ayers, Rezko--all shady people Obama used then threw them under the bus.

Does America care about Obama's judgement and his character?

This is all ridiculously overblown. A poll of delegates revealed today on TV (CBS) states only 5% still back Hillary. Plus, Terry McAuliffe reports Pres. Bill Clinton has written a speech already and is "fired-up" with support for Obama. Both Dee Dee Myers and McAuliffe say there is nothing but increasing unity and passion in the Democratic Party, and they simply wouldn't if the Clintons didn't let them.

I am just wondering if you live in US in 2001. It was Republican Party and Republican President when 9/11 happened.
You are trying to tell us that if Obama is a President, CIA is going to stop working or what? Logic is not your best friend, is it? You think if McBush is a president all the terrorist group will get really scared?;)) They will be so afraid of 72 years old politician and his buddy Liberman who can stop pushing this country to start the war with Iraq.. How smart! ;((( McBush said he HATES WAR but he is really eager to start couple more...
Sad..

Give me a break, the Obama people are setting the Dems up for a loss and he is trying to pin the blame on the Clintons. As a post Hillary supporter I will vote for Barrack but let's be clear... it is HIS job to win us over, it is not Hillary's job to deliver us. The Clinton's are doing their part and playing the game, Barrack is not doing himself any favors by not trying to get us on board. This loss, if it is one, will not be because of the Clinton's, it will be because of a flawed candidate with too much arrogance and a REALLY stupid electorate.
