neil1785 : Yep the great one is coming to fix every wrong in Washington, we are now going to be a country of hand outs, government is going to subsides everything.

Food stamps, food ration cards, milk money, gas money, free school including free college, what more can we ask for we are going to have 4 years of plenty from the new messiah.

I am surprised the media is now quiet when for months they were all going strong telling us this was it, this is what we had to select, the media should be doing cartwheels now, it is kind of puzzling that they also seem to be having a little voter remorse.

Obama is a joke. Now everyone knows it.
The only thing that fueled him was his campaigns hatred for Hillary. Now that she is gone they won the battle but don't know how to win the war.

That is what he said in his economic speech and I have yet to see anyone in the media rip his nonsense apart, am sure the media has capable people of tearing Obama statements to shreds but they are not doing it, so I would say silence is consent to his nonsense.

He who does not remember history will be punished by history.

The phony hypocrite Bho is as big a gamble as GWBush. He is a blank, having no record of accomplishment, except a full list of deception and empty slogans. He framed the dems candidates as racist to take advantange of his Affirmative Action candidacy. He or through his associates accuses Joe Biden as racist because he praised the hypocrite Bho. He framed the Clinton campaign as racist. He equates the Clinton administration to that of GWBush. He will say, and do, anything to deceive people to get elected.

We cannot vote this gamle in Nov. There have already been 8 years of disaster of such a gamble. This phony hypocrite wants to deceive the voters into another 4 years.

The first fool's decision is to entrust a loser, who chose the VP for the last loser nominee Mr. Kerry. He will major boneheaded mistakes to the country if he ever gets elected. What a pity for this phony to have deceived the dems.

Let's us be rid of the "Obamination"

Oh, yes. The phony BHO is afraid of debates and town hall meetings because he has no substance to back himself up, if he lost his paper in this hand. He will "ehn" and "uhr" ten times before completing a sentence, which still need to be corrected by his speech writers "what he really meant was ...".

When you have no substance, you change your mind and what you say every other day, just to fit the need of the time.

You only need to remember how he was crushed by HRC in the single only substantive debate.

Oh please; that DEAN WHIMP took a back seat to Obama as soon as he announced he was in the "race."

I remember how the media loved Dean until the "YEEHAW!" I knew he was a loser long before he proved me right.

Obama said he would meet with enemy countries without PRECONDITIONS. McCain's big push now is to say Obama would meet with enemy countries UNCONDITIONALLY. No preconditions is very different from unconditionally. I thought McCain is supposed to be the honorable one. The honest one. Guess not.

Howard Dean's early campaign was media savvy and had grassroots support, internet contributions, and Obama's campaign, and now everybody else's is a little indebted to that model. Joe Trippi set it up and it was Dean's way to seek change from the ground up. Obama respects and knows this about Dean's campaign and if bloggers don't, well maybe they are too young. Dean's ruinous moment after Iowa was also instructive to future candidates. What he intended as a way to encourage and cheer his supporters looked for all the world like a lunatic denial of the loss. What people needed just then was reality. Of course Dean was exhausted and surprised at the loss but he hurt himself badly by just not acknowledging it. Another mistake in that campaign I think was how all the intense young Dean supporters descended on Iowa to observe the caucus. People don't really like outsiders coming in and telling them how to vote. So it was a little bit of unbridled enthusiasm but almost all of Iowa prefered Kerry.

The reason Dean and others were working to get Hillary to quit before so many state primaries had been held was because they knew they were going to need a lot more time to vet Obama. They can keep on vetting right up to the general election, and they will still not be finished. This latest judgement call is a sign of more things to come. Obama is so inexperienced and he is operating by the seat of his pants. I guess he is counting on CNN and MSNBC to cover his back.

The idol of so many is green and lacking in knowledge on so many issues. We saw that it the debates, and it is still so evident. Bring on some more Patrick and Cuomo speeches. Maybe, we can be convinced.

yes obama!!!!!

You guys for the most part are just not ready for an African American president. Get ready, like it or not, before the world is over, there will be an African American president. It seems it all about race. America is paying for alot of things stemming from the past.

Obama is an empty suit...but that suit is stuffed with guys who wanted to be President and never made it...like kerry and Kennedy and Dean...and these guys have been part of the nasty Obama machine from the beginning....McCain is a reasonable alrernative to the "slime as you go" corruption plan that we are pretending is a democratic party.

star neither the Republicans nor Democrats have been doing there job.
If we want to step up and if this Country is ever going to have real change it won't be with a rank and file, corporate candidate like either Obama or McCain. So it shouldn't make any difference if people vote McCain because Obama won't be doing anything too different.

Democrats are week. We need a new DNC Chief and a new nomination process.

rtate Given the state of the economy and Iraq I cannot imagine voting on the basis of symbolism or redemption. Clearly, there are some (but few) who would never vote for an African American or a woman but for most people their personal decision as to whom to vote for ( unless they just vote party and don't need to think about it) is a bit more complex. If you can't appreciate that then it probably says more about you then it does them.

Xmarksthespot What's the difference between no preconditions and unconditionally to you?

angie When you say McCain and Clinton agreed on the war in Iran are you talking Kyle Lieberman? The vote where the Iranian Revolutionary Guard was designated a terrorist organization? Of which Obama agrees, at least he did at AIPAc? How did Obama vote on Kyle Lieberman? He didn't. He couldn't get his sanctiomonious behind to the Senate to cast a vote. At least the other two showed up, stood up, cast a vote and were willing to take the political flak for it. In fact Webb attached a bill to Iraq funding (which Clinton co-sponsored) a week later which would have required Bush to get authorization from Congress to attack Iran. It was quietly squashed, and by whom? Nancy Pelosi and company. Thank them for giving Bush the green light if Bush does an aerial attack on Iran before he leaves office. The Dems, just like Obama did last week, succumbed to pressure from AIPAC. It amazes me though that Obama can intentionally miss and important vote such as Kyle Lieberman and then turn around and attack those who at least cast a vote.
But we'll all get to hear about how his judgement was best, sorry, he should have shown up and cast his vote showing us really what his judgement was. He should have had the character and leadership ability to stand by his convictions instead of pulling a "this is what I would have done had I been there". Just like when he mixed up the voting buttons about 5-6 times and was able to say "I voted this but I meant to vote that" or when he hid behind
his "present" votes to avoid political flak.

Hussein Obama is an empty suit. Not electable.
