Obama has Xeroxed Clinton's ideas since the primaries, so why stop now?

You mean the health care plan he dissed her about saying she was making people pay what they can't afford?? He's adopting part of her plan? More and more people will see Hillary was the one with the real soultions. Well if he takes part of her plan I hope that he plans on puting her in his adminstartion she has brains.

During the primaries this health care plan was ridiculed by Obama and now he is adopting it. Shows what a hypocrite he really is.

now i know hillary may be vp or something very strong in that administration if he wins vote for mccain and you know what hillary goes back to senate!!!!!! fighting the republicans

La Raza is a insurgent dangerous organization that would swamp America with a continuous influx of poor from third world countries. The race as it's called has seditious ideas to return the Southwest to Mexico. However, absolute fanatical this might seem this is their philosophy they preach amongst the Latino people's. This organization supports driver’s licenses for illegal aliens, in-state tuition discounts for illegal alien students that are not available to law-abiding U.S. citizens and law-abiding legal immigrants. They vehemently opposes cooperative immigration enforcement efforts between local, state and federal authorities. There in opposition to the Federal SAVE ACT (H.R.4088), that would enforce mandatory employer sanction nationwide. They opposes a secure fence on the southern border, These anti-sovereignty advocates bitterly protested common-sense voter ID provisions as an “absolute disgrace that would eliminate voter fraud. They have consistently opposed post-9/11 national security measures at every turn and is currently leading a smear campaign against staunch anti-immigration enforcement leaders. These zealot voices have called for TV and cable news networks to keep immigration enforcement proponents off the airwaves — in addition to pushing for Fairness Doctrine policies to shut off our right to 'Free Speech." They sponsor militant ethnic nationalist charter schools subsidized by your public tax dollars (at least $8 million in federal education grants). The Race” has perfected the art of the PC shakedown at taxpayer expense, pushing relentlessly to lower home loan standards for Hispanic borrowers, reaping millions in federal “mortgage counseling” grants, seeking special multi million-dollar earmarks and partnering with banks that do business with illegal aliens.

Well, he's hiring most of the Clinton administration's people, or will hire them before this is all done, so why not take part of Hillary's plan. He's pretty much transforming himself into another Bill Clinton. He and McCain are both losers. I can't believe this is the best the two parties have to offer.

Hillary is the policy wizard. I sure hope he picks her as VP if she wants the job. I hope the Obama camp isn't trumping up problems with president Clinton as an excuse to bypass Hillary. She would excite the party in a way Obama can't do alone.

OBAMA has never had an original idea. I am totally frustrated with a few key figures in the DNC promoting this OBAMANATION as a potential nominee.

Does this mean that in another week or two that Obama will change his mind and throw healthcare for small businesses under the bus? It seems like he just makes plagiarized promises one day and then flips on a dime. I guess it all depends what demographic he is trying to influence with his "words" this week.

PUMA

I was wondering how long it would be before Obama incorporated a health care policy that included small businesses. What he outlined today was pretty sketchy, and its difficult to see Hillary's policy in it. He should propose a small business plan that involves keeping jobs here.

It looks like this is a precursor to having Hillary as Obama's vice president, or at least in a very high position in his cabinet. This change may be a herald to prominently including Hillary. But, what about Bill?

Obama: Nothing at all original in his bag of quackery!

Flip flop doing it all the time now.....

Obama: Change you cannot believe in!

"Hillary Clinton will say anything to get elected"

~ David Axelrod, (Obama campaign manager) quoted 27 times during the primaries.

Apparently, Barack Obama will say and and do anything to get elected. The big problems with this attitude is that he in now alienating his own rabid base, fomenting discord in the African American community, scaring the wits out of the Israelis, insulting the Germans,
becoming Bush 3 Light.

And of course, showing his appalling lack of judgement, character, honesty, experience -- oh wait! Isn't that why we were supposed to vote for him?

What is left then? We should vote for him because he has plagiarized Clinton's policies after ridiculing them?

No thanks. This guy is a giant ego in an otherwise empty suit.

And we have just had eight years of similarly untenanted haberdashery.

Obama's just giving credit where credit is due. Relax, people. He's always said he'll bring together the strengths of everyone involved.

Obama hasn't had an original idea yet so who thinks he is going to start now. If he can read it off a piece of paper he is OK, I am sure he did excellent in speech class if all he had to do was stand in front of a class and read his speeches, he is really quite good at reading, yelling and shaking his fist.If a person can't make their point without yelling and shaking their fist they had better give up. I mean it takes talent to do all of that at one time. I still have a question where all of his campaign money is coming from. Is anyone sure? As for President Clinton, he had better be extremely nice to him because Obama is going to need Senator Clinton.

nothing original
nothing grand
nothing bold
same old politics

During the primaries, I found it disturbing how close BHO's policies were to Hillary's. Can you say "Patti DeSolis?" Hillary's ex-campaign mgr has been a friend of BHO early on in Chicago. Her husband has been on BHO's campaign staff since the beginning. It all adds up along with his character. You need to ask yourself....How will you vote if he makes Hillary his VP???
I have thought about this more and more now because of his inexperience, Wright,etc. I will be voting for McCain and hope that in 4 years Hillary will run again. Four is better than eight! Besides...There are alot of grassroot organizations out there that are working hard to make sure he is not in office. I think we should support them and not the underhanded DNC!

hey puma woman how do you know obama supporters will vote for hillary in 4 years remember karma!!

Typical stuff tonight from both sides of haters, rather than actually discussing the topic.

Okay, I'll take the bait: what small business owner wants to take on the burden of healthcare coverage for their employees? Fine, cut my business' taxes but guess what - our healthcare plan's premiums jumped 30% this year. So, are you going to give me that huge of a tax cut? Doubt it.

People have to decide whether health insurance is a personal responsibility or a group (i.e. government/collective) responsibility. Why is it the responsibility of businesses (small or large)?
