Looks like Barack Obama now has the endorsement of a man (Richardson) who views him as "too inexperienced" and thinks that Obama cannot win.

Maybe Bill Richardson is a closet Republican.

I guess it's all this money that allows Obama to try to "buy" the race in Pennsylvania where estimates are that he is outspending Clinton 5 to 1.

When all this is over, I'd like the DNC to try to explain why it takes an obscene amount of money to find the best candidate.

Sarah, though I'm not one to talk as I frequently take shots at Clinton myself, we ought to ease up on her supporters I think. They're just frustrated and disappointed right now.

s. valenti - Obama has all of this money because WE gave it to him. Over a million of us so far. Yes, it is unfortunate that money means so much in politics, but Obama is the most people-powered presidential candidate in history.

Sarah, you are absolutely right. I just hope that the young students that are supporting Obama actually vote when they need to. I know there were a lot of students that registered democrat in state college, pa. So much so that the democrats now have the majority in that county. These young people know that we can't continue the policies of the last 7.5 years. Obama 2008!

The important thing is were are Hillary's tax returns.

Ruthless efficiency, will Obama run the budget of United States the with the same tenacity as he does his campaign?

Obama/Gore:

A basic understanding of political theory is all that is necessary to deduce that Obama is not electable.

The price of gas and oil company profits should indicate to those who can actually read, write, and spell that big oil companies are getting ready to pour money into the Republican party when needed.

Get a grip. Flaming in posts shows a defined lack of control.

Any suggestion of Obama/Gore as a remote possibility is truly insane.

I wonder if all those who claim that Obama can’t win in November, Bill Clinton included, are the same ones who back in December decreed that Hillary would wrap up the nomination by Super Tuesday. Indeed it was almost a foregone conclusion. I guess that just proves that no one has a crystal ball.

From the very beginning of the campaign, I have been curious about Obama's financial support. Initially, I was just trying to find out how a person could go from a community organizer to candidate for president so quick. Obama keeps saying that his money comes from his grass root support. I am sure this is true now but it does not answer my question. Where did the money come from that got him him up and running? Big Bucks Somewhere!

Smash:

Senator Clinton's tax returns have little to do with Barack Obama's campaign funding, which seems to be what the bulk of the post is about.

However, all of the Clinton's tax information prior to 2007 is available for public scrutiny, as it has been for quite some time.

The 2007 returns will be released as required by law and when the Clintons deem the release to be appropriate.

Perhaps the general public (Obama supporters included) would be better served to worry about their own tax returns which are due in a few days.

It's pretty obvious that Obama has run the best campaign so far. A clue as to how he will run the country.

Obama 2007 taxes will come out real soon. I just want Hillary to come clean.

Perhaps, part of the money might come from Oprah give-aways on her shows as she tells them they have to do good for somebody with it.

Jayhawk.. you are correct. Unfortunately some see only the color of his skin and not the deepth of the ideas and courage. He is willing to stand up and stand by his record.

I think the variety of culture and life experiences he has had will make him and incredible President. The number of people he has brought out and joined into the democratic and democrat process in amazing to behold. He will have the votes in November. YES HE CAN.

If we want full disclosure, I would like to know what these same people think about Michelle's thesis that has gone into hiding.

Reality and sanity both indicate that pulling American forces out of Iraq by 2009 (an earlier Obama promise, probably modified by now) will result in an Iran domination of the region and the region's oil supply.

If Obama inexperience was allowed to emerge and effect American interests in the region, $6 a gallon for gas will seem relatively cheap.

The continual changing in Obama positions should indicate inexperience and inability to deliver to supporters and non-supporters alike.

As for my most important needs, a president is elected to lead, not supply my needs or yours.

Jayhawk-

What you've posted above is incorrect. None of Clinton's tax information for 2001 until 2007 is available and they're doing everything they can to keep it that way. There's too much information in the finances that will ruin even the 1% chance that the Clinton's have of getting the nomination.

Obama will lose in '08 if he wins the nomination. This is not because of Hillary but it is so because there are many people who vote not for the party but because of who they believe will be the best president. Obama in my opinion has still not made many of his positions on policy known. He is still an unknown and cannot be trusted.

Voter ------ You 're grasping at straw. Why not ask for michelle's kindergarten school work too.
