Obama to Clinton: Release Your Tax Returns

I think releasing your tax returns is a simple enough request to complete that could only build more credibility…if you have nothing to hide. Not to mention, you’re asking for my vote for Democratic nominee for the POTUS. You’re practically asking to live under a microscope..as you should when given so much power. Surely you’re not offended by this request.
It sure sounds like she’s a little defensive when she throws Rezko back out there…

Hello? Wolfson? Anyone home?
Do you actually think the Clintons can win a contest with Obama over who has shadier friends, or who has shadier finances?
Rezko was a scumbag. He helped raise a lot of money for Obama. Obama should have had nothing to do with him. All granted. Now, let’s see Clinton’s tax returns.

GOOD!
I’d love to see transparency in campaign and politics when dealing with tax money!!!
Bravo!!!

Geez, obama needs to quit sniveling so much he is really showing his age he is still a child, and as for the money hey it’s polotics they all cheat and scam. so go hillary take your place in history and after that obama will have had time to progress in traing to run our country.

America to Obama
Tell us why you are afraid to debate Hillary.
Tell us the details of your deal with Rezko.
Tell us some examples of how you have united Washington since taking office.
Tell us details instead of offering America a bunch of Hallmark greeting card stump speeches.

Clinton won’t release her tax records for the same reason she asked for a extension to divulge her campaign’s financial records to the FEC. She has $10 million listed on her latest divulged campaign records under “transfers.” Interestingly, there is some questions about the Clinton Presidential Library funding. And her supporters say the media favor Obama. C’mon people. This IS the Clinton’s we’re dealing with here. Those of us who are questioning her are clearly not her supporters who, not so coincidentally, are older, less educated, needier people who believe what she says because they don’t have access to information that would suggest they do otherwise. Give me a break!

If she cant release something as simple as a ta return she absolutely cannot be trusted. They have the ausacity to bring up Rezko? Are you serious? He’s not accused by anyone of doing anything wrong in connection to Rezko and there dozens of riduculously and obviously shady dealings the Clintons have going. They are lucky Obama is pulling his punches!!!!

Wow the more Obama opens his mouth the more he sounds like old school Washington politician. No wonder he is afraid to debate Hillary. His only position is to CHANGE the topic when people think they deserve answers from him.
Not seeing much change in this guy.
He should talk to his good friend John Kerry about tax returns and lending money to campaigns. The more I hear from Obama the more he is exposed as a bright but empty package.

Did some one see the pictuer where Rizko was standing between the Clintons?
Mr. Wolfson should ans. the question
and then raise another question.
It’s very obvious and embarasing to stand against transparency when you run for the highest office in the USA to avoid TRANSPARANCY as if you are running for an office in a third world like un DEMOCRATIC Country.

OK Clintonites, enlighten the rest of us:
1) WHY won’t she release all of these records and emails and assorted documents?
2) Do YOU PERSONALLY approve of her secrecy?
3) How do YOU think she’ll fare when McCain NAILS HER on it at debate after debate, and in his relentless commercials?

Hillary keeps telling everyone she is running on her record… so why won’t she release the documents pertaining to it?
What’s in those returns?

Clinton should just release her tax records. At least that would put this angle to rest, assuming there’s nothing surprising in there. By not doing it, well, it just reinforces her secretive perception with many voters.
I really doubt her income includes anything really embarrassing. Maybe its bigger than most of us are thinking, but nothing too bad. So to not release them strikes me as kinda dumb.

To all of you smitten with Obama mania: will you support Hillary if she is the nominee? Of course not…since you are actually REPUBs in Obama clothing..ha,ha,ha

Norris, I can’t speak for the rest here, but I’m not a Republican. I’m an independent. And, nope, just can’t support Clinton if she’s the nominee. Just don’t think she has the character.
I understand others see it differently.

Let’s face it, if the Clintons haven’t found any better dirt on Obama than what this 2009 poster has to share, and believe me, the Clintons play as dirty as the Republicans, I’m pretty confident that there isn’t anything out there on Obama. But while Hillary keeps saying that she has been “fully vetted” new suspicious facts about her and her husband arise daily. Is it possible that an asian dictator is indirectly funding Hillary’s campaign? Release the returns!

Obama needs to stick to the issues at hand…THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!!!!!THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!!!!!THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!!!!!THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!!!!!

Norris, Hillary must earn the nomination *legitimately* and with no “ticking bombs” (i.e. scandals) under the floorboards. If she’s got skeletons and things to hide, I expect her to get them sll out in the open NOW, not in September or October, once we’re stuck with her (if indeed she is the nominee, which is far from certain) as we run agaisnt McCain.
Playing all coy and cutesy with the truth just ain’t gonna cut it 2008! Voters are demanding truth and authenticity, and will severely punish those they decide lack them.

Are the Clinton supporters naive enough to think that there is some mud on Barack Obama that hasn’t already been thrown by the Clinton machine? There isn’t!That’s why Hillary has to stoop to the false flyers and robo calls right before a primary. She has to make things up in order to beat him. The woman is a disgrace as well as unethical and the American people should be smart enough to see that!

Paul: Once again, you’ve hit it right on the head re the Clintons and their willingness to “go dirty” to win. Sad but true.
And my fellow Democrats, we fail to heed independent-voter Paul’s concerns at our peril, as we’ll need good folks like him to win in November — particularly now that McCain’s going to be the GOP’s standard bearer.

If OBAMA HAS NOTHING TO HIDE THEN WHY DOESNT HE DEBATE?
GOD IF HE CANT BEAT HILLARY IN A DEBATE < HE SURE AS HELL CANT BEAT MCCAIN

oh my, danw must be the only person that has truthful, legitimate information on obama. no one else knows anything about obama except danw. danw, ask yourself this, do you think Barack Obama would be a US Senator if all this information you are ‘bringing to light’ wasn’t already investigated?
that is why it is so interesting to hear hillary talk about the vetting process hahahahaha she truly IS funny, and a Senator to boot.

Jason, how many more debates do you think they should have after 18??

There we go again, left winged populist leaders who think politics is about taking from the rich to give to poor, at that´s about that.
Obama´s showed his populist colours.

Obama will debate Hillary again but at this point another debate is pointless. Are you deaf or what? Every debate covers the same issues and they make the same points time and time again. Further, Hillary has mastered the art of presenting the B.S., which many have translated as wit.
You can read every bill they have sponsored or cosponsored. You will find that as Peter posted previously, she has not done anything substantive since being in the US Senate. Obama’s record is far more impressive. The facts speak to this and not Clinton machine can change that truth.

Control information.
Control audience questions.
Control sources of income.
Control tax returns.
Control white house papers.
Control Sandy Berger’s underwear.
Control public perception.
Control the DNC.
Control Villarigosa.
Control Florida and Michigan.
The wheels are coming off on the Clinton machine. A nick here, a leak there. Defections, money issues, Bill’s racist card, the end of inevitability, Barack’s momentum, the power of the internet, youth on the march.
The Times They Are A Changin’.

Comparing bills authored, passed and signed by George Bush with sponsored bills is like comparing grains of salt and oceans. I would HOPE you would CHANGE the politics of distortion and spin…sponsoring is not writing and speaking on the floor is not getting Bush to sign a bill. Clinton extended healthcare to 6 million uninsured kids with SCHIP…in a republican congress…Obama brags about getting coverage to 150,000 people in a democratic state with a democratic congress and governor. That’s 40 times as many kids….and it takes a lot of experience and know how to accomplish that surrounded by republicans…

How many debates are necessary when the candidates have already stated their positions and platforms many times over now. Hillary is, understandably, trying to get some additional free exposure because her campaign funds were dwindling. Also tired of hearing all this rhetoric about “experience”…both candidates have more than adequate experience…that simply doesn’t wash as an edge in this case. The resistance to release joint returns is another matter though. Hoping Hillary will see the light on that one…otherwise, she’ll give the impression that she has something to hide. Given the Clintons’ old school methods of operation and campaign strategies, there may be some substance to the concern that they’re afraid will be exploited. When all the nonsense settles, this senior is voting for Obama because I like the way he thinks, pulls people together to reach a consensu, and I believe he is honest.

You have to be kidding me. Look up Clinton fundraiser Peter Paul. Trust me on this, if you look this up you will see the truth.

Romney sets a good example for Obama, get in line, and stop damaging the party and the voters. Everyone is tired and exhausted, and the real fight has not even started yet… If the republican wins in the fall, he will be the blame, and becomes the greatest joke in history for offering the republican party the white house…
The democractic party is kind of stupid, —compare to the Republicans.

You don’t get it! The mud the republicans will throw isn’t about stuff they haven’t found yet. It’s about the stuff we know and how they’ll use it against him. Here’s an example:
A POW verses a cocaine user
A conservative against the nations most liberal senator (conservatives strongly dislike liberals)
A man with ties to Louis Farrakan (it doesn’t matter how remote)
A man with a middle name that sounds like a terrorist.
A man who worships in a denomination not highly recognized by evangelicals.
These are known aspects about Obama but how they will create videos, banners, ads that make people step back and think is the real mud. You’re so passionate right now that you think the enemy is Hillary Clinton when the enemy is the Rove political machine. WAKE UP!

Who cares what Bill did with that other female. Our countries best presidents have been unfaithful to their wives, it releases all those pent up hormones, In referrence to this, Obama won’t be able to hold a candle to JFK, tired of hearing that someone thinks they’re similar. They are as similar as black and white, and in regards to MLK, I have a dream too, it is to see Hillary elected in October.

Hillary should not release her tax returns because it is no ones business how much financeil she has. If Obama wants to release his then let him do it. He doesn’t need to know where Hillary got the money or what she did with it. The Clinton’s happen to be political millionaires and Obama only has about 1.5 million. He couldn’t write out a check for 5 million because he doesn’t have that kind of money. A candidate can use their own money, Romney used his. Obama can’t do that.

Obama is just calling foul that Hillary has her own money and that she didn’t give him any.

All these Obama lovers calling for the psychological warfare .
Senator Obama has LOTS of things for the Republicans to ‘swift boat’ . The worse the country gets, the more people look to real solutions rather than utopia.
No doubt the war is going to go magically well by the republican media, and torn apart by the democratic media.
While obama tries to get his JFK shine on, he will have forgotten one thing.
Unless he is hundreds of delegates ahead by the convention – which the odds are slim to none – the Clinton backed Democratic party will hand the nomination to her via super delegates.
The main backing of the party is behind Bill and Hillary Clinton.
There are no ‘youth vote’ or ‘independent’ super delegates

Hello Wolfson? Are you there?
You want to talk about Rezko? How about the photo of Mr. and Mrs. Clinton with Rezko? Clintons don’t go where they don’t gain. It is true Hillary denied knowing anything about the photo. We also know that SHE DENIED SO MANY THINGS THAT ARE TRUE.

LET’S TALK ABOUT ALL THE BAD THINGS ABOUT HILLARY
LET’S TALK ABOUT THEM

When will Barak stop sniping at Hillary. He’s going to lose this contest if he doesn’t start understanding that we’re all on the same side.

Okay fellows:
Can we all just get along?–Rodney King.
Seriously, the end result in Novemeber will more than likely be a team effort to win the White House with senators Obama and Clinton. They are both appreciated for their service by millions of people. They will probably team up. Senator Obama will get the nomination and more than likely pick sen. Clinton as his running mate.
So, please stop this gender and race war….Thank the Lord for Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964….Thank the Lord for the dream of Dr. King being realized in America. No more fighting, okay my friends?
Shalom

if she cant come clean about the five million she contriubated to her own camp? then she cant be my president. obama released his.what does the clintons have to hide huh?

Did you watch the abc7news yesterday Dan Ashley mentioned that barack obama spent his childhood in indonesia,what can you say people. Do you know that in my opinion some republican are funding barack, if the general election in november all the whites will vote for mccain, do you want that to happened, republican are trying to psychologize the democratic voters so another republican will be in WH again.

Good job, Peter. Also, if you read the article, Obama was responding to a question as to whether she should release her tax returns. His answer was, “I have released mine. I think it’s important for the American people to know this.” He didn’t bring it up, the press did. He merely answered truthfully, as always. All this outrage here is indicative of the fear that there is scandal ahead, that cannot be prevented, even by Clinton Network News. They are mired in scandals, from the past and from now. If they won’t be transparent in their own financial dealings, how do they expect to bring transparency to government? It’s the same old hypocritical nonsense we must clean out of Washington – for good. Why shouldn’t we know? The government can get ahold of our IRS records anytime they want. Is she above the average citizen?

Hillary should definitely release her income tax records. She should also release her medical records; both for the last 30 years.
Also, I hope someone will ask her to explain her actions when she was a member of the Nixon impeachment committee. It appears she committed unethical actions concerning stealing files and making money for said files. Does anyone see a pattern that started in her mid-twenties? Lie, cheat, steal, hide evidence and manage to make lots of money doing it. Her obsession with power and money is an example of poor character. Our country doesn’t deserve to be punished with the Clintons back in the White House!

I think it is telling that the only real item the folks have to hit Obama on is Rezko.
If only Clinton were a one hit wonder, we wouldn’t be having this debate now, would we?
Instead, she is a serial offending, with questions about her conduct going back to the days when she was a Goldwater groupie (yes, you supporters, if you trace all the way back she started off very much in the heart of the republican machinery).
So, all of you who clamor for scalp, I think you need to look at the candidate who has the longest history of missteps, misjudgment, questionable activity, suspect financials, and who, for whatever reason, refuses to reveal what should be public documents–and in case you can’t figure it out, that candidate is Hillary Clinton.

The reason some of us keep bringing up Resko is simply this. Obama has stated time after time that his judgement trumps his lack of experience. He toots his own horn by saying how he has superior judgement and would make the right decisions in office. He himself said his land deal was boneheaded and shows a lack of good judgement. It also shows his lack of judgement in picking friends. Hey if Obamas campaign can continually bring up people in her past why cant we look at Obamas gaffs and shortcomeings? Its only fair.

BO needs to be careful. We know about Rezko but nothing on favors, if any, for the money received. Chicago papers had reported his Rezko relationship. Is there more to come? As a Senator, Hillary makes disclosures. So, what pray tell may BO be up to? And after this should he succeed, does he believe democrats would vote for him? Better give this some thought.

Give me a break. The Rezko incident has been overblown by the Clintons (people on her staff have taken money from the guy!). Obama apparently has given the money he accepted from the guy to charity. The other bits and pieces of the relationship apparently don’t rise to anything more serious than conjecture.
But if you want to play tit for tat, then I’ll see ONE mistake in judgment (which I don’t necessary agree rises to that level) against the mountain of documents that indicate Hillary’s 35 years of experience came at the cost of integrity and honesty.

On what basis do you claim Hillary is more electable? Based on everything I’ve seen, read, and heard, her primary group of supporters are old women (and yes, I be one), uneducated people, and Latinos. Seems to me that leaves a lot of folks out there who would not agree with you that she is the most electable.

This is another political ploy by Obama to try and cause conflict. He needs to shut up and discuss something of substance like the issues affecting America. The only thing I’ve heard from him since Super Tuesday is how great and wonderful he think he is (he will keep all the people that voted for him but he does not think Hillary can. He can rake in more money than Hillary. He is the only one that can beat the Republicans.) Sounds more like a arrogant, egotistical kid rather than a Presidential candidate!!!

Fear mongering and innuendo doesn’t work if you have a brain–so sorry to inform you. And if you think the references to JFK have to do with his bedroom antics, you might want to head to the nearest store to see if they have a spare one on sale.
But I’ll explain it simply so even you can understand. The inspiration that got folks to sign up for the peace corps and made people think of Camelot may have, in hindsight, been a bit wispy, but the feeling of optimism and hope and possibilities inherent in the Kennedy campaign is what informs many of us who are hoping to support Obama all the way to the WH. Sometimes all it takes is a change in mindset to make the most impossible things happen.

I’m not sure why it would be a big deal to release tax returns, UNLESS you had something you want to hide. It does make you wonder how they came up with 5 million with such ease. Even if they have a huge net worth, how do you have that much cash on hand??

Yep, Hillary has been on the trail for over a year and half and in that time has seen her insurmountable lead (at one time, double-digits) crumble to a statistical dead heat with Obama. It is wishful thinking to continue to say she is the only candidate who can win for the Democrats: if you look at the trend lines, it isn’t even clear she can win the Democratic nomination without pulling string!

Well ladies and gentlemen, I have never heard or read so muck nonsensicsl arguments. Our school system is being betrayed. No wonder Barack is talking in a tongue that only 3 words are remembered “yes we can”. Obama is a fraud, at least he trying to win a campaign by using tested Republican tactics.
Did anyone ask Obama where and who gave him 7 million in 24 hours, or was that a lie to show he has support?
You won’r believe it but , while Hillary would like to select Obama as her VP,,his connections are politically suspicious. Forget about the history of the money..if its dirty from either side time will reveal it. Obama supporters , neither of you can debate ONE of Barack’s proposals. But you know all of Hillary’s because she would not let US forget why we are ALL important to the success of this Great Country .
Hillary will be competing with MCCain. While Obama will be crying foul.

Andy,
Talk is cheap, especially on an anonymous forum. You made a LOT of charges here and lots of unfounded accusations. Please provide some evidence of any of the claims you make against Obama. Here’s your chance to educate all of us and win your point. I’ll be waiting for clarification for at least the next five minutes. Let it rip, give us all you got, convince us we have been blinded by the light.
But if you cannot back your words up, then you have admitted to one and all that you are empty wind blowing desparately against the truth.

If you want more of the same….like George Bush, please vote for Obama. He stutters like Bush, gone to Harvard like Bush, inexperience like Bush, talks about change like Bush did in 2000, irresponsible and naive like Bush, has no foreign policy experience, his cult-like followers what to have a beer with him like Bush, Obama is fake like Bush…fake, fake, fake.

A true leader must be sincere and transparant.Noting to hide what so ever,I don’t see this qualities in the clinton’s. How can we vote them into power again.

As in impartial observer I’d just note that the title of this post “Obama to Clinton: Release Your Tax Returns” is intentionally sensational and totally inaccurate. The video clearly shows that a reporter raised the question of tax returns and attempted to bait Obama into calling on the Clintons to release theirs. Instead of doing this, he appropriately (i.e., well-executed politically) demurred and said that he would ONLY say that he had released his tax returns and went on to explain why that is important. A honest, straightforward answer that makes the political point without appearing to attack the opponent (well done!). Further, pressed by the reporters (undoubtedly hoping to generate some controversy), he eventually says “I think I’ve answered the question.” So, even though he didn’t take the bait, the title of this blog suggests that this “demand” for the Clinton’s to release originated with Obama rather than as a question from a reporter. Aren’t journalists trained to report the news, not make it up?

The stupidity of the Obama Sheeple never ceases to amaze me.
Sinister origins for the $5 million Hillary Clinton lent her campaign.
Perhaps some of you Sheeple can have your mommies read you the story of how Hillary received an $8 million advance on her BOOK.
We of the great unwashed, non wine sipping brie eating masses can even do that arithmetic calculation… lets see, $8 million minus $5 million leaves Hillary with $3 million left over.
Now I am sure that the IRS has taken its pound of flesh out of that $8 million. But then again, I am sure that Hillary has made money on investments and her salary as Senator for eight years now while Bill has provided the finances for the family.
So the bottom line is that Obama and his Sheeple are raising false flags of suspicion as to the origin of the $5 million Hillary easily has in her possession while totally ignoring the 153 people who lost their jobs in a town of 1500 because Board of Directors member Michelle Obama helped to close their plant, while Barack is organizing a boycott against that plant’s major cusomer WALMART, as well as ignoring that Obama’s wife is Vice President of a hospital that has been cited by HHS for “patient dumping” of poor Black patients as well as charging poor Blacks without health insurance 5 1/2 times as much as Whites with health insurance for medicines. Not to mention that this supposed NOT FOR PROFIT hospital made over $103 MILLION in PROFIRS last year.
Yes, that is who I want for President, a man with a wife that puts minority workers out of their jobs while she collects over %50,000 a year for board meetings and tosses sick Blacks into the street…
My Hero!!!

Obama,
Are you getting desperate to win?
Please win by your own merits …
Not by digging up what you hope is “dirt” of your opponent.
Do you not have anything good about yourself to brag about?

Hey Shyguy. Maybe Clinton can get 8 mil, use 5 and have 3 remaining. The rest of us would make 8 have the tax man take 4 and leave us with 4. Get your mommy to teach you about reality. And please, hillary supporters, stop claiming O is afraid to debate. He has done 18. I am tired of hearing from both of them and this point and the questions (as well as the anwers) have grown stale.

Who does this guy think he is? His “holier than thou” attitude is laughable and at the same time dangerous because he seems to have many; far too many, people fooled into thinking he is the “big answer” to all our country’s problems. Whoever his “spin doctor” is really knows how to slice the baloney. President Lincoln said “you can fool some of the people some of the time, but not all the people all the time”. I sure hope he was right about that.

Andy,
As your comments are incoherrent it is difficult to understand what you are attempting to ask about. As for my PhD, it is in International Finance, and I also come with strong credentials in International relations,which is why after careful consideration of all the candidates I have decided that I could never support Ms. Clinton as I did not support Mr. Bush.
Regarding the campaign funds of Mr. McCain, you may find a complete record of his campaign contributions at his website. While I disagree with many of Mr. McCain’s positions, and would prefer not to vote for him,I respect his general truthfulness.
Having met Ms. Clinton and her husband personally on several occasions (Democratic fundraising dinners)has only strengthened my knowledge that they are fundamentally untrustworthy individuals.
Regarding the “female hating” please stop advertising your overt hatred of others. I am a female who has worked her way up and through the “glass ceiling”, a ground-breaker in my area of expertise. I am highly regarded as a person who helps others, male and female, to succeed and who respects others who deserve respect.
Sorry that I won’t be “hanging around” to read your response but it is late here and I am meeting with some of my graduate students at 8 AM. Have fun!

Hey Obama release the following document please:
- Your Columbia University Transcripts. (has refused so far)
- A list of your friends, roommates and bosses during your time in New York. By the way this is required for a security clearance. (has refused so far)
- The documents concerning your house purchase and the purchase of the lot next door and the subsequent purchase of part of that lot by you.
- A document showing how you handled the “gift” from Rezcko on your house purchase. (If not on your taxe return during the year you purchased your house then you have violated federal law?
- A list of the people who have bundled your contributions, including any money from overseas sources.
- A transcript of the conversations that you had with Railla Odinga while hhe was running for presidency of Kenya.
- An explanation of your wherabouts during the period Nov 3 through Nov 8, 1999, while a State Senator from Illinois.

Herman,
With all due respect, in the polls I have seen, Hillary has earned a higher percentage over McCain than Obama. Due some fact checking and you will see I am correct. Also, do you recall the 2000 general election where Gore won the popular vote, but not the electoral college?? It will be a carbon copy of this in the primaries only Obama will be your new Gore and Hillary will win more delegates over Obama.

Inane would be your commentary on my opinion which is factual. Furthermore, I was having difficulty posting my comment, which is why it appeared five times. . However, like a good person that I am, I will just ignore you.

Dear Mr. Obama,
Yesterday, Thousands of women like myself, networked over phones and through e-mails with friends and family members to make sure Hillary recieved the contributions necessary to forge ahead. As Ms. Clinton said so beautifully, it takes a village. Her village is growing by the minute. You should ask her to join too.

they are rules for campaign donation,when you see someone whip out 5 mil ,of course antennas have to go up,if the Clintons are so honest then disclose the financial statement.
And i find it odd there is alot of text calling for obama to debate, no question thats her volunteers begging on her behalf so they can save money on commercials.BTW.. hillary supporters watch your tone, because without Obama and his supporters, you are not beating McCain.

Sorry to see you leave, Ms “older white female”. You found my comment incoherent, but was able to respond eloquently to my points raised. I guess your higher I.Q. made it possible for you to read between the lines.. of my comments..thanks for helping the masses unravel my incoherency.
You , by the way gave your personal , childish appraisal of the Clintons at a fundraiser, as a means of deciding their political acumen.

With all the things going on in this world and domestically. Obama is worrying about Hillarys tax returns at this time in the game. How immature and incompetent. He needs to be studying what it takes to be a president especially with 2 wars going on…housing crisis, people losing their jobs and no health care. He scares us

Cliffie,
That’s amazing insight. Like I said, the rules only apply to Hillary because she is female.

jamest
We don’t want Obama, he has behaved in a grossly arrogant and distasteful manner, which does not befit a statesman. We are pushing for a Clinton Edwards ’08 ticket.

Obama’s stupidity in making that real estate deal with Rezko — knowing that Rezko already has been the subject of investigation as written about in the Illonois papers — so he could save money on the real estate transaction…
… and maintaining a long-term relationship with Rezko…
will burst into the open late this month, when the case against Rezko goes to trial.
Then we then probably will know the real Obama, warts and all, when the media, including the mainstream press — which has been pretty lax on him — begin to feast on him like a vulture.
We all will then realize that it had all been nothing but a very ambitious, too-early-too-soon, presidential candidacy that relied so much on empty promises and misdirected eloquence.

Talk about the ANTI-clinton voters, On conservative talk radio, callers was saying they couldn’t stand Bill smirk if they got in the whitehouse, so if its Hillary vs mcCain’ they will hold their nose and vote mcCain, and if its McCain vs Obama, they will stay away or vote third party.So with the anti-Hillary votes.. MINUS the independents that supports Obama she is done ,unless she adds Obama as VP,then his voters can offset some of the anti-Hillary votes.But will he take it?.. we will see.

The Democratic ticket will be Clinton / Webb. Senator James Webb, senator from Virginia, who beat the former governor in the last election, best selling author, former Secretary of the Navy, silver star in Vietnam, son serving in Iraq. A good ticket………….

this is such a transparent attempt by mr i’m so above normal politics look at me to play the oldest political game in the book, to say something and let others assume there’s something sinister back there somewhere. and then to act like she’s old school politics and he’s so holy. puleeze! and the media, of course, love to play this game. and the sheep follow along.

It amazes me that people are actually asking if Clinton can win. Of course she will! Are we Democrats so blinded by what Republicans are supposedly thinking about the Clintons that we have forgotten what we – and the majority of Americans- think about Bush and the Republicans ??
We’ve had 8 years of a Republican administration which bungled Afghanistan and Iraq, created a huge deficit, mismanaged Katrina relief efforts, and damaged our reputation and standing in the world. Do you honestly think Americans as a whole will suddenly forget all that in November and put the republican party back in charge for another 4-8 years, under a president who wants to continue the Iraq war and who admits he knows too little about economics?
Think, people. There is no way Republicans will retain power in this country. We all know who put us in this mess.
It’s McCain and the Republican party who can’t win.
Senator Clinton will be our next president.

Dont understand what the big deal? I dont want my tax return to the public, it no body bussiness except mind!!!!!

Hillary is in trouble is she gets it, because mcCain is liberal and will get those independents and some DEMS, if it was Romney then she doesn’t need Obama or his voters.Obama could care less one way or the other, if she doesn’t pick him, he will head back to Chi-town, watch her get beat, then come back to take on mcCain in 4 years.if he gets VP they win ,then he has to wait 8 years.HMMM

As far as the number of debates, why not have a caucus in Michigan and in Florida and then the delegates can be seated fairly at the convention??
HEY PAULETTE. As far a Florida voters are concerned we don’t need a caucus we had our primary. end of conversation. The DNC decided to disenfrancise the voters so be it .delegates and. Super delegates don’t have to cast their vote for the voters choice. How unamerican is that. florida has been disenfrancised twice. What is the big deal. The dnc has been duped by florida republicans again.

Given their past with all sorts of shady campaign contributors, and the fact that she is personally pumping lots of money into the campaign, I think it is perfectly legitimate to ask for their tax returns as well as the records of the Clinton library. If she is clean, she should welcome the opportunity to put an end to this issue.

Tax returns are someone’s personal information. When Hillary is submitting her tax returns every year, why is Obama curious to see her Tax returns? If Hilalry is playing anything foul, it is upto IRS to take acre of it. It is none of our business.
Just because Obama has made his Tax returns, it doesn’t mean that whole world has to disclose.
This si similar to someone is making their private life public and asking every one else as well to disclose. It doesn’t make sense at all.
If you want to disclose something your personal information, do it by all means. Not a single soul in this world cares a damn about it. BUT DON’T TRY TO ENFORCE ON OTHERS

Instead of having debates, put all the candidates in a boxing ring and whoever comes out the winner is the president. Agony for the American people over with. Or split America in half put Dumocrats on one side and Republicans on the either side and see which side is the most prosperous.

Hey Obama please release the following documents please:
- Your Columbia University Transcripts. (has refused so far)
- A list of your friends, roommates and bosses during your time in New York. By the way this is required for a security clearance. (has refused so far)
- Documents regarding your time in the Illinois Senate. (Obama refused and now says the documents were lost)
- The documents concerning your house purchase and the purchase of the lot next door and the subsequent purchase of part of that lot by you.
- A document showing how you handled the “gift” from Rezcko on your house purchase. (If not on your tax return during the year you purchased your house then you have violated federal law?
- A list of the people who have bundled your contributions, including any money from overseas sources.
- A transcript of the conversations that you had as a sitting U.S. Senator with Railla Odinga while he was running for the presidency of foreign government( Kenya).
- An explanation of your wherabouts during the period Nov 3 through Nov 8, 1999, while a State Senator from Illinois.

@COL r .. most of those ballots that hillary won on in florida, was cast weeks before the kennedy endorsement and his rise , even voters said after, Had they know what they know with the caroline endorsement they would change their vote.Always risky when you cast your vote early.

When we get the tax returns of Bush, Cheney, John Kerry, etc., we will then ask Senator Clinton for her tax returns. Just because Obama (in his 40′s) has a smaller net worth than the Clintons does not qualify him to be president.
Let’s ask Obama to explain whay he has refused to do his duty and vote on controversial issues in the office. I am not talking about the state legislature but even last year he refused to vote on the IRAN bill before the senate. Let’s ask Obama to explain his refusal to do his job rather than showing me his net worth.

Obama did not bring up tax returns, he answered a question. You say it’s playing into the media’s hands, but it’s a question he answered. I’d rather have him answer the question than dodge it.
More debates? Neither candidate has said anything different to warrant another debate. They’ve already had too many.

For all ya’ll calling for Bush/Cheney’s financials/IRS returns, I’ll just let you know that they’ve consistently released them to the public every year. Cheney even released his from the years he was in the public sector.
Republicans have released their tax returns going back to Nixon and beyond, I think some of you would do well to examine why recent Dems: Clinton, Gore, Kerry, Clinton have refused to release their tax returns.
Good luck with your primary, Dems, looks like you’re going to need it. Come November, you’ll be wishing you hadn’t run off some of the more solid candidates in favor of your ultimate race versus gender game.

I’m not an American but have been keeping close tab to the presidential election fever in US. One thing for sure, you have with you an outstanding candidate and the best in recent time in the form of Barack Obama. Do not lose him!

Our country is in serious peril.The economy is in a mess.The housing crisis isn’t over yet and several more people are going to lose their homes.The other shoe is ready to drop with an impending credit crunch or the mortgage insurers going down.The budget deificit is setting us back decades and we are being bailed up by the Chinese and the Arabs.We have a health care crisis and 50 million and counting without coverage.There is a an unnecessary war going on while there are jihadists waiting to strike.The environment is going to the dogs.GWB does not care.Do any of you care or you think an american idol would do the job.For crying out loud, this is not a beauty pagent.This is the race for presidency of the US and the free world and the toughest job in the world. We are in a crisis.Elect Hillary or go bust.This is no time to take a chance.Don’t waste time on pettiness.Elect someone who knows, is strong and will get the job done.Go Hillary

Obama has been bragging about wanting to be bring the democratic party together.Now he comes up with this to stir trouble. People better open up their eyes and see what he is doing.
Obama where’s the beef!

For purposes of transparency and accountability, the Clintons owe it to this great country to disclose their detalied tax returns even without prompting, as Obama has done. I do recall vividly, Hillary calling Tony Rezko names; but it has now turned out to be that she is also a beneficiary of tony’s largess and she is yet to even acknowledge that undisputed fact. She should also disclose to the public where all her campaign fincances are coming from. Same goes with Bill Clinton since he is such a prominent figure in this campaign. Without these, how can the american public trust them with their votes. Make no mistake about it, this is mighty important and relevant.

Come on Dems elect hillary she’s the candidate that we can beat. McCain will evicerate her on the war. Give us the “You voted for the war, before you were against it” candidate. That worked great for us last time and this time we’ve got a WAR HERO to make it.
Give us the scandal, the dislikeability. Give us the candidate that independents hate as well as republicans and some democrats. Please democrats show us how stupid you really are and vote for the only candidate that gives us a chance to take back Congress.
Come on Hillary don’t turn over those records to Obama. We’ll need that scandel with John “get money out of politics” McCain. GO HILLARY!!!!

Federal Income tax returns are legally
not due until October 15 of the next year with extensions, so I don’t understand what all the hoopla is about.
How come has no one questioned that Mr.
Obama is doing his constituents in
Illinois a severe disservice by this campaign. They elected him to the US Senate, and he barely found out where the Capitol Men’s Room was when he announced his run for President. He made a six (6) year commitment to the Illinois voters, not a six week commitment. That is disgusting.
As for the indicted Tony Rezko, he donated, or was responsible for over $ 150,000 in campaign funds to Mr. Obama.
That fact, plus the real estate deal puts him in a position where he is not just a casual acquaintance. This Arab
terrorist is best friends with Obama.
That coupled with Obama’s militant MMuslim sister and brother, militant Muslim father and stepfather. Also, MMichelle Obama has a history of being aa member of militant black groups.
II believe that “birds of a feather flock together”
There’s more here than Mr. Obama is telling us.

Come on people. If the politicians have been showing there tax returns then why say Hillary shouldn’t? With having something to hide, it seems that not only is Hillary dishonest but also her supporters.

Doesn’t surprise me , republicans voting for Obama, republicans spent millions (tax and private money) investigating the Clintons. Obama acting like a republican!

Wow, the forces of Clintonism have been busy overnight.

Enough, Already.
Obama HAS released ALL of the information that you seek, BEFORE he declared for the Presidency and why you want any MORE information is only a tribute to your lack of reading skill.
But, Hillary needs to disclose her tax returns as ALL private citizens have to do in order to get a BANK LOAN!!

How did BO raise 7 million dollars so fast ??? Did Oprah bring her check book …….
Grow up BO stop the arrogance, and childish antics and worry about the important issues of the country and not stupid items like a tax return

And history showed us that Ike was right on that one.
Kennedy was loved for sure, but as a president, as for accomplishments, he’s not in the top tier at all.
The fact that he was assassinated doesn’t make his presidency great, it just disguises the disaster that Kennedy’s presidency was.

I think that hilary should release all her tax returns, everything in this race for the top office should be above board. (don’t take us back to the bush era!)

Releasing her tax returns is a simple request. If Hilary had dirt on Obama you best believe she would release that with the quickness. The people for her should know where the money came from. Did she get it from Bill? We know of words of change from Obama, but we want to know the tax returns of Hilary. If you all voted for Bush and we have been in Iraq for 8 years then you can vote for “Change”. Hilay may be more experienced after learning from Bill, but Obama is a clear leader that has yet to become distorted like the previous presidents. Watch Hilary may start crying again. We don’t want to see tears we want the tax returns. When you talk dirt don’t have any of your own.

Hello People: Both of them (The Clintons)are best selling Authors. They have made enormous amounts of money. Also, Bill is making a fortune on speaking engagements. Get Over It. Go Hillary! Go back to the Senate Obama! I’m tired of your catch lines.

The reason Obama won’t debate Clinton is because his speechwriter is elderly and most likely can’t produce sufficient “spin” in a timely fashion.
The “talking head” cannot speak for himself, as he has demonstrated all too well.
As far as Clinton’s tax returns – here we go again. The minute things go in her direction, the old “bait and switch” strategy swings into action.
Stick to the issues Barack

All candidates for public office should be forced to release their tax returns. We just know there’s going to be no shadier set than those produced by the grifters from Arkansas. Someone send those two back to the trailer park they came from.

Obama is getting frantic since he knows after being shown by California that we logical Democrats are not buying into his cult like operation. So now he will attack Hillary on all fronts.
That’s fine now we all know he is getting hysterical, it will make him more transparent so we can see him for the inexperienced, sexist, ego driven little person that he is.
Beautiful words do not cover up his sexists, bias.
Once people step back and look at his actions and lack of any basic experience to run the country they will realize his cult like activities are not what we need in a President. I have also heard that he is associates with the nut case, Louis Farakan.
Wow can you see Farakan dining at the white House?
In his state of IL, in the City of Chicago has one of the worst education systems in the nation. Maybe Obama and Oprah could take her book club, educate the Chicago and clean up his own back yard before attempting to clean up the nation.
California did not signed Obama’s line of BS!
California did NOT by it- Bye Bye Obama and Oprah

You cannot play down skill nor play up being a novice! Hillary is compassionate, Obama is elitist. Moreover, his entire, basic message is dishonest. It all starts from Illinois, if you’d like to know more …
“Even amid Chicago’s storied reputation for corruption, this has been an unusually significant and far-reaching investigation involving 30 indictments and 23 convictions. Those charged have included a top official at the mayor’s office of intergovernmental affairs and the former deputy water commissioner, who pleaded guilty to taking bribes, shaking down companies for political contributions, and rigging hiring. With a number of cooperating witnesses, including the water czar, the investigation is far from over.”
“What’s remarkable is that for the first time, Mayor Richard M. Daley seems politically vulnerable. His approval ratings are the lowest since he was elected in 1989. Beneath the apparent cynicism over corruption, many Chicagoans seem genuinely to care about the finding and don’t accept his repeated statements that he has nothing to do with hiring.” -CS Monitor.

Why everyone worry about another debate how many do you need to get the message across. It sure sound like the Clinton’s is very worry about Obama, let stick to the issuse not a debate after debate. If this was me she will 0 debate enough is a enough. And before anyone start complaing about experience remember when you got youe first job did you have any experience.

To all of you smitten with Obama mania: will you support Hillary if she is the nominee? Of course not…since you are actually REPUBs in Obama clothing..ha,ha,ha
Did u forget we can be independent

LET’S SEE SHE CAN’T MANAGE HER OWN MONEY OR ACCOUNT FOR IT, BUT SHE WANTS TO HANDLE THE AMERICAN ECONOMY. I DON’T THINK SO… NO MORE CLINTON DRAMA PLEASE… it is so 90′s

so has anyone seen the tax returns yet?

Amazing how the Clintons made so many million ,who knew on a president salary it can net you that many millions,last i saw, Bill is worth more than 52 mill it might even be more , and please dont insult me by saying he got it from writing a book.These people are no different for the bush/Cheney’s and haliburtons.

I’m an independent and am very excited about Obama’s campaign. Hillary Clinton is not electable, you have to remember that now more than ever it is we the independents that decide elections. Those that so adamantly support Hillary Clinton are already declared Democrats, while those that Obama attracts come from both camps. Just think about it, John McCain is a moderate republican who is taking a lot of heat from his party for his lack of a far right ideology. This attracts us independent voters. If you nominate Hillary Clinton, she will get liberal voters, but McCain will claim the independents and conservatives. If you elect Obama he will atleast compete for these independent voters as well as carry the liberal voters who will vote for whomever the Democratic party nominates. Democrats need to understand that Obama is more appealing to the ever important middle than Hillary will ever be. You can also bet that Republicans will attack the Clinton finances the same way that Democrats have fought for disclosure against many Republicans. This will only help to alienate the middle.

First of all!
obama didnt ask Clinton for her tax returns, he was ask on the plane will he exclose his tax return by a reporter then he said I have no problem! So the media turned it around saying that Obama wants Clinton to exclose her tax returns! Get your facts straight!

Joe and Bob Why should Senator Obama debate Senator Clinton at her whim. She wants to use her funding for Ohio and Texas and therefore looking to get free national press which is what would happen in a debate. her mgr even asked to have a debate this upcoming Sunday, why Sunday so she could use the free press to help her in the primaries coming up in VA, MD and DC. How coniving and calculating can she get? I hope Senator Obama continues to steer clear of her less than subtle tactics

cheri If you were intereste din knowing the truth you would go back and research when the race became nasty it was when both Hillary and Bill made subtle remarks trying to incite race into the campaign which in my opinion was a desperate move for desperate people. Senator Obama and Senator Clinton have debated what five times how many more times are they going to debate the same issues. The issues haven’t change and neither has Obama’s position so why waste time debating again. Again I’ll tell you why Hillary wants free press. Hopefully Obama won’t fall for the tactics.

America to Hillary.
Tell us the real reason you want 6 debates with Obama…maybe because a) your support is faltering b) you are running out of money c) debates will cost you nothing.
Tell us the details of your tax returns.
Tell us some examples of how you have united Washington since taking office.
Tell us details instead of offering America a bunch of Hallmark greeting card stump speeches.

Hillary is a devisive, calculating,
money grubbing, scumbag and so is her husband! Her tax records will prove it!
!

The Clintons sure have their nerves to bring back Tony Rezco in the campaign, after it’s been revealedthat he has also contributed to their finances.
CHARLESTON, S.C.–A photo has surfaced that shows Hillary and Bill Clinton posing with Chicago developer Tony Rezko, a Barack Obama contributor whom Hillary Clinton condemned as a “slum landlord” supporter of the Illinois senator earlier this week.
Clinton was shown the photo during an interview on NBC’s Today Show this morning but told host Matt Lauer she did not remember meeting Rezko.
“No, I don’t,” Clinton told Lauer. “You know, I probably have taken hundreds of thousands of pictures.”
“I don’t know the man. I wouldn’t know him if he walked in the door. I don’t have a 17-year relationship with him,” Clinton added.
During a presidential debate Monday evening, Clinton blasted Obama for his relationship with Rezko, telling Obama she had fought Republican policies as first lady during the 1990s while “you were practicing law and representing your contributor, Rezko, in his slum landlord business in inner-city Chicago.”
The photo is undated but Lauer said NBC News believes it was taken during Bill Clinton’s presidency.
According to a database of campaign contributions maintained by the non-partisan Center for Responsive Politics, Rezko made a $15,000 contribution to the Democratic National Committee in March 2000, the last year of the Clinton presidency. Rezko also made a $1,250 contribution during the Clinton re-election campaign in 1996 to a Democratic party account that funded activities in Illinois to help win the election.
As the leader of the party, President Clinton and the first lady were active fundraisers for the Democratic National Committee during his presidency. They frequently hosted events for signicant contributors and party fundraisers that often included a chance to be photographed with the first couple.
At the time, “soft-money” contributions to the party were not limited in the same way that contributions are to federal political candidates. The Clintons, drew heavily on contributions to the party to support the Clinton re-election campaign and later the Al Gore presidential campaign, just as Republican presidential candidates did with contributions to the GOP.
Lauer asked Clinton “if there’s no such thing as ever being able to fully vet who you come in contact with, is it appropriate to make this kind of an attack on your opponent?”
But Clinton responded by pointing to the extensive relationship Rezko forged with Obama.
“There’s a big difference between standing somewhere, taking a picture with someone you don’t know and haven’t seen since, and having a relationship that, you know, the newspapers in Chicago have been exploring,” Clinton said
Obama Communications Director Robert Gibbs said the photo of the Clintons and Rezko “reflects the fact that Mr. Rezko was clearly involved in a wide range of fund raising for both Democrats and Republicans.”
Clinton spokesman Phil Singer noted that Rezko had not made contributions to any of Hillary Clinton’s campaigns nor did he donate to Bill Clinton’s presidential campaign.
“Tony Rezko has never contributed a dime to Hillary or Bill Clinton. They have no relationship with Tony Rezko,” Singer said.
For years after Rezko befriended Obama in the early 1990s, he helped bankroll the politician’s campaigns. Then, after Obama’s election to the U.S. Senate, Rezko engaged him in private financial deals to improve their adjoining South Side properties. Those arrangements became a source of lingering controversy after the Tribune first reported them in November 2006.
Obama publicly apologized for his 2005 property deal with Rezko, calling it “boneheaded” because Rezko was widely reported to be under grand jury investigation at the time. Rezko has since been indicted on corruption charges unrelated to his relationship with Obama and is scheduled to go on trial on Feb. 25.
Obama has given to charities $85,000 in Rezko-linked campaign contributions, including $40,035 last weekend following a published report suggesting that Rezko funneled a $10,000 donation to Obama through a business associate. Aides to Obama say the senator had no knowledge of any such scheme.
Obama has been accused of no wrongdoing involving Rezko and has insisted that he never used his office to benefit Rezko.
Thus far, there is little in the public record to suggest otherwise, and the few exceptions that have come to light appear minor. On Capitol Hill, Obama once gave a summer internship to the son of a Rezko business associate on Rezko’s recommendation. Earlier, as a state senator, Obama was one of several South Side political and community leaders who wrote state and city officials urging approval of public funding for a senior housing project involving Rezko.
But when Rezko pushed for passage in Springfield of a major gambling measure, Obama vocally opposed it.

whether clinton or mcain obama is an unstoppable movement. change is very much in the air. go america!

Good luck- some of us are still waiting for her husband’s medical records (which were always considered a formality before his tenior). More of the same-more of the same-more of the same-more of the same…

Don’t worry – just keep checking the coffee table – that stuff will show up sooner or later. And her husband is just arrogant and stupid enough to try funneling HIS money through the back door to the campaign – Let’s face it – he’s the one who REALLY wants to win.

Remember. It was only a few years ago. The records were missing for two years. The first lady was subpoened. For what? To show her records as the attorney from Rose Law FIrm that represented the McDougals who ran the S&L that went down when all the people were swindled out of their money for the fraudulant Whitewater deal. Hillary could not come up with the records. Then they mysteriously showed up on the table in the first lady’s office. A cleaning lady found them. Sitting right there. The McDougal’s went to prison.Remember Vince Foster who had worked with Hillary at Rose Law Firm was her White House attorney. He killed himself just days before he had to testify to the Grand Jury on Whitewater. Remember. Bill Clinton was impeached. He was not removed because it was at the end of his term and the Country had been through too much. But he was impeached and he did do it. He squirmed, the famous “I did not have sex”…and then the famous “I did have….” Where was the leader Hillary? Remember what she said when all of those women came forward? “It’s the vast right wing conspiracy”…Remember. Remember Travelgate, remember Troopergate. Remember the intimidation Juanita Broderick went through. She didn’t dare accuse the then Governor of rape. But it was aired on 60 minutes. I believed her story, and if more Americans dared to remember, they would admit that America did go through enough.
A leader comes around once every 40 years who is electrifying. He is capable of healing us. Unifying is a good place to start. Vote your gut.

I had to stop reading the comments of this board because of the stupidity that abounds from people. People get so passionate that some of the most idiotic and naive statements are written and posted. Most of the attacks on both candidates are weak and Democrats should be happy to know that two impressive candidates are running for office. The only attack on Obama that bugs me is his lack of experience. You want to know a scary secret. Some of the greatest Presidents have had the same or less experience than Obama. Let me name drop, Lincoln, Woodrow Wilson, FDR, and JFK. Some of the most experienced have turned into terrible Presidents, Nixon, Hoover, Taft to name a few. So please stop with the experience argument. It is irrelevant. Also, Hillary, release your stupid tax form…I want to see how rich you really are.

Here is what I would like to know from Sen. Obama: are any of your present or former staffers or others in your employ or your associates, members or supporters of the Nation of Islam? Tell us Sen. Obama please.

Why doesn’t Obama release his tax records back to 1990 when he first hooked up with Syrian national Antoin Rezko. We have the Clintons from that time I believe, so why doesn’t Obama ante up his own, we would like to see the charities he has accepted and or given money to, too! Also I recently read that a key member of Obama’s own Senate staff, a Syrian, is somehow linked to the late Yasar Arafat, how strange is that!

She is not obligated legally to “release” her tax return forms to the public anymore than any other U.S. citizen. Those forms are filed to the IRS but not for public eyes to see. Obama is just trying to pull a public relations stunt here. How would you feel if he made a law to make all public workers or civil servants to “release” their forms to the public in the name of transparency. Listen I believe in transparency too but the line has to be drawn. Obama is so liberal that he will not be able to beat the republicans. Here’s a scenario for you. Obama against McCain…Republicans and Conservative Independents will vote for McCain. Hillary vs. McCain. Republicans will vote for McCain but many of their wives will secretly vote for the white woman vs. a black liberal and give Hillary the vote. Sure women too complain about Hillary but many long to see a woman in power compared to Republican Establishment. Whereas, although many youth and blacks would love to see an intelligent and charismatic black man in power, most of white and non black America is not ready for it and will not vote for for him in the General Election. Sorry but THIS HAS ALWAYS BEEN A RACE OF GENDER AND RACE, AND WILL BECOME MORE SO EVEN IN THE GENERAL ELECTION. America will elect Obama in 2016 but his wife has already stated that’s it now or never, so you guess what’s going to happen.

YOU SILLY people, you are feeding the real opponents with enough information to potentially kill any winner of this contest.What if they should become running mates, now stop the assassination of your candidates you STUPID,STUPID PEOPLE.

Transparency… hahaha…. honesty… hahaha … integrity… hahaha … get the picture? Government for the people, by the people, of the people … hahaha! Enough said… hahaha.

If (and that’s a big if) Hillary has nothing shady going on with her $5 million loan, she should fully disclose how she got the money.
Like Richard Nixon said, “You [the American people] have a right to know your president is not a crook . . .”

The national media needs to stay on Hillary for the refusal to release tax returns AND refusal to release her papers from the Clinton library!!! Does anyone else see a blatant lack of transpancy???

This is for Liberal, who argues that Obama can’t win. Stop kidding yourself: a warmonger and hardliner, who will have to bring back the draft to staff his adventurism, vs. a moderate, intelligent, gutsy man who said NO to Iraq on Day 1? McCain will lose by a huge landslide. Obama will be so strong, he will carry the Congress with him. What man in his right mind would vote for the draft? That’s all Obama has to say.

I think that all or most Michelle Obama Barrack SUPPORTTERS ARE HAVING A KIND OF FOIBIA OR FEAR FROM REAL CHANGE. THEY MUST CHANGE THEIR WAY IN THINKING .THEY MUST THINK OUT OF THIER OLD FASHION BOXES. WAKE UP AMERICA.

I am an Independent Hillary supporter since 2004 who has been so alienated by the liberal medias treatment of her campaign that I will NEVER vote for Barack Obama. I predict that the media has alienated so many
Hillary supporters that if he wins the nomination, they will either turn their votes over to Ralph Nader,
John McCain, or not vote at all. The liberal media will have succeeded in screwing up the presidential election again.

This is smelling more and more like some kind of TaxGate for the Clintons.
