Carville Equates Richardson With Judas

Wow — I finally agree with something Carville said!

I would never vote for a campaign this gross…Carville, Bill, all of them …
The establishment…old “boys’ network (and yes, Hillary is part of that network)… of the party needs to be removed. This regime has to pass… it has been 15 years of their crap and their self-serving choices and values putting us here against the Republicans.
…and they need to go for good.

Gotta love James!

I think those going against Hillary and Bill now are just disgusting! Shows their real character–”two-faced” and “users”! It’s obvious they are wishing for a high level position should Mr. Obama win the nomination for the Democrats. Shame on them!
Go James Carville!!!

Judas?
That’s funny
Uhm, which candidate is selling us out to the republicans? Which candidate referred to McCain as passing the threshold and which candidate inferred McCain was more patiotic than the leading candidate in their own party.
This is about the Clinton’s not caring about anything that doesn’t advance the Clintons
I am disgusted by Carville’s comments.

I love it the childish wanna be’s are showing their true colors! Don’t vote for the best candidate or go with the will of the people VOTE FOR YOUR FRIENDS ..POLITICS AS USUAL in the Clinton Camp!

Obama throwing people under the bus? ROTFLMAO After the 3 Clinton lies of just yesterday you want to talk about throwing someone under the bus???? HILLARY THREW ALL OF HER SUPPORTERS UNDER THE BUS WHEN SHE LIED TO THEM AND THE AMERICAN PUBLIC!

Richardson can vote for whomever he wants. Carville is just another bitter Clinton supporter, much like MattOhio.

Dream on about Fox and McCain…you guys will be lucky if McCain REMEMBERS there an election in November :)

McCain cannot even travel alone as he has very real issues with age and memory. Without Joe to hold him the last week he would have become a laughing stock on the world stage and it’s a long time to November folks and McCain is aging as we speak. Beat a young candidate that the party will get behind? Not happening. Heck the majority of Republicans didn’t want McCain LOL WHY would a majority?

Awesome nana.m!!!! well said

bill stated that his wife and McCain loved America, not Obama.. that’s nuts hillary does not love America or she wouldn’t be doing what she is doing in this campaign. hillary only love is for her own HUGE ego.

Go James, go Hillary, take it to the floor.

Bill Richardson stood up for positivity and America’s promise. He stood up finally for the way this pastor crap has been thrown around…
He stood up for Barack because that is the America he wants to live in. No more games carville…no more Clinton twists and scandals…no more Republican scare tactics…. no more twisting what America really stands for…
What is more American than someone can sit through Sunday services and come out still and take the good without the bad. Across America the proudest moments of what this country is…
The conservative catholic person understanding that gay people are not an abomination.
The woman in a church that subtly reinforces women should be second who goes out and marches for women’s rights.
The parish that understands their Vietnam Vet pastor’s anger when he swears at his country for not taking care of their heroes.
The parent that accepts their child or their child’s spouse in the face of their own childhood teachings.
America needs to stand up and be the America that we dream about… America needs to get out from behind the people who have been driving us down this road for so long.
It is time to change… it is time for us to overcome these tactics.

nana – You need to take the focus off the pastor and put it on the fact that Clinton is in bed with all of the special interests. Clinton can not govern in an impartial way that will be best for the people of this country. To make policy based on who gives you the most money is a conflict of interest that will be extremely detrimental. Obama’s pastor has no bearing on what policies Obama would foster. Obama is his own man, and can make his own grownup decisions on what is best. He has denounced many of his pastor’s views, and that is good enough for me.

I have to agree with Vanessa. If Bill Richardson’s endorsement of Obama is so insignificant why does it sting so much that Carvelle has to characterize him as Judas.
I have been paying close interest in the campaign. It is so interesting that many of Hillary Clinton’s supporters have confessed indebted to the Clintons because of personal friendships or career growth opportunity; yet they confess that Obama is very appealing and seems poised to move America forward in significant ways. Bill Richardson like congressman John Lewis of Georgia have expressed how gut wrenching their decision making had been. I takes great courage and fortitude to make such a decision. It is that type of inner strength that places the interest of the nation above personal that bodes well for the United States. It is quite cynical to think that there was some personal quid pro quo in this endorsement.

eastinlandmessenger
you miss the point always….it is not about educated people….it is about calling people uneducated….it is not right…it is not decent…..
yeah PhD is admirable of course….

Eastie
here is a piece of junk that you wrote….is it facts or your paranoia?
what happened to the $250,000 that Obama got from Rezko? Would that count as special interest? Do you read the news? Can you impartially judge Obama flip-flops?

BTW…I am employed by a big corporation legally……are you paid by Obama?

The only good thing about BHO winning the nomination and loosing, as he will, in November, is that we would be DONE WITH HIM. The party would not run a looser from one election in the next election cycle.

eastinlandmessenger-What in the world do you think the media and BHO people have done relentlessly and venemously since day one of her candidacy? The nasty diatribes regarding her and Bill,are horrendous. It has been a cake walk for BHO.

First we have Mr. Obama throwing his gradmonther under the bus to protect his racist and american hating preacher now we are surprised that his new friend Richardson would do the same thing to Bill Clinton. No if Obama is willing to sacrifice his own grandmother should we be surprised that Richardson would wait and see which way the political winds are blowing and throw Bill Clinton under the bus for his life long dream to be VP. Like Truman said if you want a friend in Washington get yourself a dog.

Carville’s likening Richardson to Judas Iscariot is outrageous, and frankly, sacriligious. Perhaps he thought he was making a clever comparison, but he showed his own contempt for a principled politician’s decision. Richardson should press for an apology, as should the people of New Mexico. Carville stepped in it, and I hope this comes back on him hard.

Just brilliant, James Carville. I have been saying all along that the Clintons value loyalty and blind obedience above all else, just like the Shrub currently occupying the White House does. Thank you for so openly demonstrating my point.
Just say no to arrogance in government. Just say no to political dynasties. Just say no to Hillary.

Seems like Obama has promised the VP spot to an awful lot of people.

I was thinking how to desceibe Ricardson.
Carville put it right.
Bill Richardson = Judas

Richardson did not follow the choice of his constituents. A member of the OL BOYS CLUB, like Jake.

So if its ok for BR to go against his states vote than BO supporters should have no problem when states that BO won are turned over by the super delagates right?
You cant have it both ways guys if BR and others can vote at will so can the supers

CARVILLE is a LOSER and so is Hillary. She is embarassing herself by staying in the race. She has no self respect.

James Carville calls Bill Richardson “Judas.”
I call him Benedict Bill.

dl
It’s not only about his pastor, it shows Obama for what he is an idiot. I do not think it takes a rocket scientist to figure out that if you are running for President, that he had to get away from that minister like a bat out of hell. Now he is telling us to talk about race, that will divide the country more.

Why should Hillary stop running? She has EVERY right to stay in the race to make sure she would pick up the pieces while Obama campaign keeps self-destructing and eventually implodes. She is a fighter and by winning Pennsilvania and moving ahead in the polls against Obama and McCain, she would prove superdelegates Obama IS NOT the right nominee for GE.
Give ‘em hell Hillary!

I absolutely agree with Josh here. Why the heck should Hillary pull out? Obama is sinking because of Rev. Wright, especially with the blue collar/working class voter. Rezko is far from over!! No matter what position you take on Hillary now, if Obama goes down the tubes, she is our ace in the hole against the Republicans. Just from a strategic standpoint as a Democrat, you need her as a safeguard. She should stay in the race for as long as she can.

Ron, do you really want to go there?? Two words:
LARRY SINCLAIR
I thought I would never utter them.
See how silly this can get??

Marie: I second that! Bill Clinton led this party out of the political wilderness now Obama and Kennedy, Kerry and company what to lead us back in. Sorry this time I will not follow. This party is becoming the party of the intelectual elite and the radical left and that is the party that McGovern led and now Obama. Like Regan once said I did not leave the Democratic party the party left me. I am tired of belonging to a party that associates itself with the hate america first and government will solve all your problems.

Signing off for the Weekend. To those who celebrate Easter, Happy Easter. To those who do not, take a break; enjoy your friends and family. Try not to talk politics.

Rev. Wrights’ comments were all over the news this morning. This story is not going away, because there are more videos out there. The problem that Obama has with Rev. Wright is that he did not have the judgement to dis-associate himself from this church. He obviously knew that there was a problem with Rev. Wright, since he dis-invited him from his opening of his campaign in Springfield, IL in 2007. Once these videos were reported on, Obama went on MSNBC, FOX and CNN on Friday, 3/14 and stated that he did not know about these sermons, that he had not been in the pew when these sermons were given, and had he known about these sermons, he would have left the church. Then in his speech he changed his position. So, did he lie on 3/14 when he went on three separate cable news channels and stated that he did not know, and was not in the pews? Obama does give a good speech. Everybody knows (even so called un-intelligent working class people that Obama’s people are always attacking) that it is much easier to give a speech when you’ve worked on it for four days, than it is to answer questions in an interview (or in a debate). What is the subject with many voters is Obama’s judgment. He has shown his poor judgment with his association with Rev. Wright and with REZKO.

I’m really surprised by all the anti-Obama posts. The speech he gave is historical. Race is still a divisive issue in this country. Just look at the disproportionate amount of blacks in our prison system. My grandfather and father were from the south and blamed blacks for everything going wrong. Communities are still segregated though not by law. I had a white friend tell me she was afraid to go to Montgomery, Alabama because of all the blacks there. Obama happens to be white and black. He grew up in a white family. His grandparents basically raised him while his white mother was in Indonesia doing micro credit for poor people. Wright’s sermons need to be watched in their full context, not the snippets being shown. I happen to agree with him that our foreign policy has certainly not made us many friends. Violence begets violence. Richardson is just doing what many did in Jesus’ time; seeing truth and following it.

Felicia,
OK, but to call it a betrayal?
Anyway, I disagree with you about endorsements dividing the party. At this point, Hillary can’t make up the difference in vote and elected delegates. Everybody who has analyzed the math of it knows that Hillary would have to win by huge margins all remaining contests just to break even. Obama will end up with more elected delegates and likely more popular vote, too.
So what is left is for the party to either embrace Obama, who is in the lead with voters, or get behind Hillary and say she’s more electable if that’s what they think. I really don’t think the superdelegates will get behind Hillary if she hasn’t won the vote and the delegates. THAT would divide the party, no matter how much Hillary supporters, who demand she get the nomination even without winning the delegates, claim they will run to John McCain. If they want to vote against their economic self-interest, then they will get the president they deserve. But somehow I don’t see all those Rust Belt blue collar types running to John “Free Trade” McCain.

Clintons to the White House.
Obamas to the Wright House.

Sorry the effect of Obama and his surrogates telling Clinton to get out of the race…….

Let Bill Richardson answer in his own words please:
Gov. Bill Richardson told the New York Times in February that a superdelegate’s vote “should reflect the vote of my state, it should represent the vote of my constituency. It shouldn’t be because you’re a fund-raiser or a big-shot delegate. Superdelegates should reflect their state or constituency. If superdelegates decide this nomination, it’s going to look like big-shot politicians and fat-cats decided who should be president.”

Who is Larry Sinclair?

I think James Carville’s point was that Bill Richardson has materially and politically benefited because of the Clinton’s. Bill Richardson served at the pleasure of Bill Clinton.
Bill Richardson’s endorsement of Obama is a manifestation of disloyalty towards a family that, right or wrong, has provided him with many opportunities.
In the end, I suspect that Bill Richardson will end up more like Pontius Pilot — just another despised Governor in a remote land.

I completelly agree, Richardson has no values, he is an opportunistic person. shame!
As a Latina, I will never vote for Obama, I don’t care if Richardson endorsed him.

Calling him Judas seems to confirm Richardson’s complaint that the Clintons are waging a sometimes negative campaign.
I know many of us bloggers take pride in our ability to slam each other, and I admit I’ve done some of that myself (I confess an admiration for Carville’s clever Judas jab)and I’ll probably do more of it in the future. But sometimes I get online and it feels like we’re all stuck in traffic somewhere, really frustrated about something and taking it out on each other.
I think we are seeing that many Americans are drawn to something else, and are signaling through their support of Barack Obama that they want to identify with a campaign that can shed more light than heat. I know I’ve been personally inspired by Obama to try to be more positive.
There certainly is a little thrill in seen an opponent belittled, but I’m willing to give that up for the vision of an America led by someone who has firm convictions, unwilting determination and a clear mind, without the meanness.

Richardson and all the democratic party bosses want Hillary out now, for no other reason than to cover the DNC bottom. If Hillary drops out, the whole FL & MI vote problem will go away.
…..And if she did do that…..The whole Obama “Race” issue will also be dropped.
The Race thing is a deflection for the REAL problem. For God sake it was ONLY a week ago The Pastor videos were nationally exposed, and now all of the sudden we have a “RACE ISSUE”!!!!

Dogsoldier,
Thanks sincerely for your comment. It’s obviously a challenge for all of us to see the other side’s view, and I really appreciate your help.
Paul M.

I used to a big James Carville fan, back in the “Wag the Dog” days. Now, he just comes off like a sore loser. Hey James, you want a clue on how to handle losing? Look at your old buddy Paul Begala. Learn to laugh it off buddy, before you find yourself way out in the cold of the new Democratic party.

Obama and Richardson fed into Carville’s comments by having this endorsement on Good Friday. I continue to maintain that people in the Obama campaign seem to be completely oblivious to the fact that this is Easter weekend. There are articles on his website about Persian New Year, Happy Purim, and so on, and not yet a word about what is to Christians the holiest week of the year. If Obama wanted to salvage his image as a Christian, preening around like a peacock on Good Friday with a Catholic governor at his side did nothing to help. Will he be in the pews at Trinity this Easter Sunday morning? Apparently not. I’m surprised no one in his campaign is savvy enough to point out to him he needed to salvage the Christian vote, particularly after the Wright mess. So Carville’s point is well taken. Obama and Richardson chose the timing.

Blind loyalty is not a good thing. But loyalty is an admirable quality. In political terms, Richardson stabbed Hillary in the back, particularly considering his state of New Mexico went for her and the way his career was advanced by the Clintons. It shows that Bill Richardson is not a man of political good faith, but is an opportunist. It will hurt his career in the long run. Also whatever happened to Obama’s wish that superdelegates should honor the will of their electorate? And whatever happened to Obama’s call to listen to the will of the voters (who he is fighting to shut down in FLA and Michigan)?

Carville’s never been one for understatement, but you’ve got to give him credit — the metaphor is well timed.

Carville go on the Oprah Show to explain your insulting remark.
clue:
you won’t be rising again in three days.

If Richardson had endorsed Clinton it would have been the greatest endorsement of all time, but he didn’t so now it’s the worst traitorous act of all time.
Now picture Clinton as comparing herself to Jesus on Easter weekend. Great; just great, I got to tell you.
When is her campaign going to start to be real?

The outspoken James Carville makes a point, much the same as Geraldine Ferraro, that is basically true. Naturally, he is going take flak for it.

obama may pull out the nomination but only because his “laundry” didn’t come out earlier…he will NEVER win the general.

oh, and by the way…i think richardson is disgusting….he not only stabbed the clintons in the back but he also stabbed the voters of his state in the back.

The point is that Obama has shown VERY POOR JUDGEMENT in having Rev. Wright as his pastor. The reverend is entitled to his beliefs, and he is free to speak as he wants, this is the beauty of the US. Obama does not just “know” Rev. Wright, he chose his church in Chicago over 17 years ago, he was married by him, had his daughters baptized by him, etc. This is not a casual aquaintance. He is not related to him. Yes, we all run into people in our lives with whom we disagree with, generally speaking, people with judgement do not value these relationships, and end them. Obama did not have the judgement to do this. The SAME LACK OF JUDGEMENT shows in Obama’s relationship with REZKO. Obama lacks the judgement to be the democratic candidate.

to “another ron”….he is being judged by his pastors remarks because his pastor has been a mentor and close spiritual advisor with an obvious amount of influence in obama’s life. this is all fine unless you are running for PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES>

LOL Carville calling Richardson a Judas-just another example of Clinton Campaign projection.
It was Carville (as portrayed on page 344 of Woodward’s book) who early in the morning following the ’04 election, who set in motion the betrayal of the Democratic Party by providing his wife, Mary Matalin, Kerry strategy regarding 250,000 outstanding ballots in Ohio. Carville tipped off Bush and as MJ Rosenberg of TPM says…
“the rest is history”.

I find it funny/disturbing that the media can be all over Obama for religious comments that he didn’t even make, and on a U.S. General for saying that Bill Clinton was like Joe McCarthy, yet James Carville, cleary part of this Clinton Campaign Out Of Control can liken the Clinton name to Jesus and Bill Richardson to Judas and no one says a damn thing.

PaseoDelMar,
first of all let me say thank you for responding I thought I was by myself. Secondly, It was not a black SEPARATIST group there were white people in the congregation when he was talking. Thirdly, with all dew respect, you still haven’t answered my question.

ddpwoman:
If Barack Obama really “vehemently disagreed” with the views of his pastor then explain to most Americans, why he stayed there listening to his sermons for 20 YEARS? How many times would you go and pay to watch a movie that you hated?

Bryan,
I appreciate you brother but I am still looking for an answer to my previous question.

Bilbo893,
I think you get me.

Someone needs to slap a muzzle on James ‘Nosferatu’ Carville! He’s another political has-been whose political fortunes have always been tied to the Clintons. Is this idiot now comparing Hillary to Jesus Christ? Sure must be, if he’s comparing Richardson to Judas. I’ve had enough of Carville during Kerry’s loss in 2004. Go away, Jim, just go the heck away and shut your flyhole! Where were you when the Clintons needed you most…namely, washing out that blue dress!

here is a strange coincidence…the head of the firm that contracted employees who breached the passports…. is an obama advisor???

I guess in Mr Carville and Jacob’s scenario Hillary is playing the part of Jesus Christ. Now, if she can just rise from the dead and win the nomination AND the election, we will all have to think about believing in HER ! Me, I do not believe in her or in Jewish zombies who are their own fathers coming back from the dead.But, I guess I could be wrong. We shall see .

MattOhio-Fl-Mi messenger…VERY good point…interesting way of putting it…

There is none so blind as he who will not see! NOBAMA for me!!!! I am a Latina. I was upset that Obama mentioned Latinos in his speech the other day. Reverand Wright nor Obama, nor Richardson speak for me. Richardson is an idiot for allowing himself to be used. Look beyond the smooth…..really listen to what Obama says, it’s all part of who he is. His training and work experience taught him to say exactly what people want to hear.

For most of us in Michigan it’s pretty clear that our state party leaders broke the rules (because of a long-standing feud with Iowa and New Hampshire) and that the primary fell apart because of that. That wasn’t the fault of Hillary or Barack.
If you want to hassle Barack you can say he should have been calling for a new primary. If you want to hassle Hillary you can be outraged that she said the vote was fair even though it wasn’t.
If you support McCain, of course, you can hassle either Democrat about any of their shortcomings and hope to keep Democrats arguing amongst themselves.
Paul M.

MattOhio-MI-FL-Messenger,
I don’t want you to vote for Obama. I just want an honest answer to my question. Does anybody out there have an honest non-biased answer to my question?

ddpwoman
our founding fathers were also against abortion, interracial dating and other controversial concepts…
we are not to cynosure them for any of those concepts either…they are on the dollar because of their pioneering efforts in engineering the birth of this country…hope this helps

MattOhio-MI-FL-Messenger,
“…they are on the dollar because of their pioneering efforts in engineering the birth of this country…hope this helps”
THANK YOU that is exactly, the answer that I was looking for. We honor our founding fathers for the good that they did, inspite of the hurtful practices of racism and slavery. We didn’t “throw out the baby with the bath water” How wise are we.
Thank you MattOhio-MI-FL-Messenger,
Donna

No,
The procedure at the State Department is that if anyone makes an unauthorized viewing of a high profile person’s application file. It’s an automatic flag, and is pretty much standard in the industry. That’s how that LA Hospital knew who and when people peeked at Britney’s mental health file.
So sorry, noone was helping hide Obama’s “real” birthplace of Afghanistan or something.
Also note that McCain and Clinton’s files were breached as well, Clinton’s by the same contractor firm. That’s only the people they are bothering to tell us about.

MattOhio-MI-FL-Messenger,
I don’t have a problem with Hillary. I think that you are absolutely right. Heck, when Bill was in office I actually had some money in my pocket.

Donna
I apologize if I was rude earlier about the “pictures” remark…I am not blogging to change anyone’s vote…everyone has to vote their conscience….it is just that everyone should do it responsibly and with the right information instead of being carried away in the hype and the hoopla…

MattOhio-MI-FL-Messenger,
I feel ya. I am a former Bush supporter. Please, don’t hate me.
I crossed over to the Dems., because you guy’s were making HISTORY! You still can. It’s not too late to come together again. The republicans, I am ashamed to say, is making a joke out of the Dems. right now. But, if we come together we can wipe the smiles right off their smug little faces.
What do you say to that?

Donna
No one hates you here….also just cuz Bush messed up, it doesnt mean that McCain will mess up….for me atleast Hillary is a more level-headed candidate who will push people to their limits for getting the right things done….Obama is still trying to find and fight for his racial identity….
Hillary vs McCain would be right, because if America messes up on one, the other is still good….in my opinion..

This is the biggest irony of them all.
If Richardson is Judas, then the comment by Carville implied that Hillary (or Bill) is Christ.
First of all, Hillary is running for President and not Bill so we cannot equate Richardson’s support for Obama as a Judas move. Since the Clinton campaign has said the move to be so, it clearly shows that all along Hillary is using Bill Clinton’s resume as her own. This statement by Carville proved everything beyond doubt.
Secondly, Jesus is not a liar like Bill and Hill.

MattOhio-MI-FL-Messenger,
Obama’s not the only one fighting that fight. America is. With her multitude of children in all their diversities how will America love her babies. How can she rid her children of jealousy. How can she convince them that she loves them all equally. America the beautiful.
I only have three kids myself; and that is one tough job.
Peace,
Donna

Carville is right…Richardson’s glee at being in front of the crowd of Obama worshippers was sickening.

So MattOhio,
Which person is Bill Richardson a traitor to? Is it Bill or Hill? Answer that for me.
I am a foreigner just looking into the American election. I have seen your comments all over the place on this topic and I think most of your comments are nonsense and plain stupid reasoning.
On another topic, if you dig more on the net, you’ll be able to find the video of the full sermon by Rev Wright on which Faux news got their story from. It was nothing like the few seconds of clips Faux news used.
One of the reason ordinary Americans have become so out of touch with reality is because your MSM’s twist of the truth. What this breeds is an uninformed populace and this is very very dangerous.

None of this really matters. It is now coming out that the “idle curiosity” of those who spied on the passports found that Barack is technically an illegal alien and cannot assume the presidency.

don’t think anyone could explain it as well as Obama , this is the America we live in right at this moment..anger, separation,confusion..fear, frustration. We need an honest voice of truth..Obama is the only one (running for office) not afraid to speak truth..bruises & all. I know that when I vote for president I need someone with a voice to inspire the nation, to help change the attitude of the American people who actually don’t believe that we are one nation under God..The people who would never want to be “one” with anyone else. People who couldn’t unite with even their next door neighbor if he happened to be a different color than himself or a different political party or anyone he just didn’t like,for that matter. We need someone to change that mentality. If you truly listen to what he says..you realize that he is speaking from truth… He understands why people feel this separation..how they arrived at their perception..he is never speaking from only a ‘black “point of view or a “white” point of view..he speaks from a human one..as an observer..open minded, with compassion,without judgement..ready to help talk it out..ready for the blows that may come, steady until it is resolved & until there is change…..isn’t that what we intrinsically need? That’s what we need as children.. isn’t that what we need as a nation.. Isn’t that the man he is? All I know is that I want somebody with that kind of statue to lead the country for my children & make a difference. As for Hillary camp’s latest desparate move to undermine Obama’s integrity & drive a wedge between races….would you ever want to be held liable for someone elses words.. especially when they were venting frustration? Anyone who would let this deter them from voting ,never believed in him anyway so …………..TIME FOR CHANGE ..YES WE CAN , OBAMA is a LIGHT in this DARKNESS that we’re facing ….Let him SHINE!!

I love James Carville!
Hillary is ahead in the electoral votes 263 to Obama 202. Obama can’t win the 2025 to clinch this race either. She’s won all of the critical states needed to win in November. She wins primaries (last time I looked these include way more people that the caucuses. When you look at the BIG picture (November 2008) the MATH is in her favor.

Such a traitor after Clinton gave him a chance to be the first Hispanic to hold an office and one of the the highest member in the president’s cabinet back in the 90′s. Not a good example for young generation. God knows Bill Richardson is a traitor same as Judas.

I love James Carville!

Richardson is a transparent sellout of the worse kind. Enjoy your lowly rank in the good ole boys club. Good luck competing with Rev. Wright for VP.

Did Richardson endorse him? I thought they were jut having an affirmitive action celebration. As in, “We did it Bro’”!
Us Govt. regulations re “affirmative action” allow one to CHOOSE ones race, as Obama did, as Bill Richardson did.
Do not know if either did it for that reason, however, it certainly does give one “a leg up”/advantage re employment and college acceptance. I do support affirmative action, though it has never benefited me. Believe it necessary to “even out” past inequities.
But, do not agree with one’s choosing the more advantaged “half” for political or affimative action purposes.
I am a white “mongrel”, I am some of everyone, yet definitely have 1/16th Cherokee in my lineage (great, great, grandmother full-blood) and could obtain tribal membership through “Dawes Role” means. Yet, Federal laws re scholarships require enrollment in a federally recognized tribe as well as a Certificate of Degree of Indian Blood card showing at least a one-quarter Native American descent.
Higher standard for Native Americans than any other racial or ethnic minority. But, I could say, “I am black!”, no problem. Go figure.

So was Richardson a Judas when he himself was running for President? I found Carville’s comments quite pathetic. Anyone who voted for or worked for or had anything to do with Bill Clinton has to back Hillary? Patheitic reasoning. Is that the kind of blind loyalty the Clinton’s expect? No wonder so many people dislike them if that is the case.

i see a lot of hillary campaign deadbeats with nothing to do today.
and soon, just plain nothing to do.

Carville and the Clintonistas,
“If you want a friend in Washington, buy a dog.”

1. No, he had not yet stabbed the Clinton’s in the back while he was running for president.
2. That is the kind of “blind loyalty” that I expect from my friends that I have spent years helping out. Unless I have killed one of them, or someone else. Otherwise, cover your eyes, or leave them uncovered, you still better support me when I am in a jam.

Get your facts people. Obama has been less than honest with the american people. He misrepresented(read lied) about his connections to Resko and the fund raising, he misrepresented(read lied) about his knowledge of Rev Wright’s sermons and racist beliefs,and he misrepresented (read lied)about his stance on Irag, after his speeach denoucing the war when asked to denouce Sen Kerry’s vote for the war, he refused saying he didn’t know how he would have voted, after seeing the Iragi people gleefully pulling down Saddam’s statue after the first push , he said maybe he was wrong, and in 2004 he gave an interview to the Chicago Tribune and is quoted as saying, at this point my views (on the war) are not very different from George w Bush. Look it up it is all there. People see and hear what they want without checking the facts. Now the head of a government contract firm being investigated for wrong doing is an advisor to his campaign. Remember everyone who is close to him and working for him and with him will be in the White House if he becomes the president.

Well said! Anna-Marie, Amen to that!
and…
To LadyVoter, your comment was very clever,
However as to the McCarthy schtick, you have either been watching too much Keith Obamamann as he tries to play Edward R. Murrow, or… you are as old as I am and saw McCarthy as a child.
Which?

Does Carville think Richardson is being paid, then? Come on. Bill Richardson, who WAS the most qualified and best candidate running, is endorsing the candidate he sees as the best leader, pure and simple. Carville is just upset because it’s basically impossible for Hillary to get enough delegates to win the nomination. Obama-Richardson ’08!

James Carville rules. What an intelligent and inciteful man.
Bill Richardson is indeed the reincarnation of Judas Iscariot, he has sold Hillary and all of us in the hispanic community down the river he should be ashamed of himself. What a TRAITOR!! the hispanic community and Clintons will not forget this.

Bill Richardson sat in the fence for a long while and may have seen in his mind’s eye where the wind, arguably, is blowing and chose to side with the “likely” Democratic nominee.
This is a person, though, who doesn’t value loyalty as a measure of a person’s character and worth, and will ditch long-time friends for purely selfish ends. This is pretty obvious based on the timing of his Obama endorsement.
But I respect and admire people like James Carville, who know and understand what friendship and loyalty mean. I don’t know this guy personally, but this is a man of character.
As for Richardson, he will realize the folly of his ways a few months from now as we see Hillary, helped by an awakened electorate, overcome the odds.

The Presidency of the United States is no place for Affirmative Action. We need to elect the person with the most experience, the person who has been tested over and over again, the person who can best lead this nation forward through a more and more complex global struggle, the person who has meaningful plans for even the least among us. That person is Hillary Clinton. Barack Obama gives a great speech.

Couldn’t have put it better myself Miguel. I was a supporter of Bill Richardson not any more he has shown his true Duplicitous, Deceitful, false-hearted and disloyal traits not traits that hispanic people admire. I’m very dissapointed in you Gov Richardson as are many people I know in the community.

Wait. I am confused.
The Clinton People say Richardson’s endorsement is unimportant.
Now the same Clinton people are apoplectic that Richardson endorsed the candidate he felt was more qualified.
It can’t be both can it?

Bill Richardson you will now forever be known around the great USA as – JUDAS RICHARDSON.
I hope that 30 pieces of silver was worth it you fat JUDAS!!
“judas de mentira untrustworthy, gordos”

I think that the rest of the Democratic party needs to fall in line with everybody else and support Barack Obama If not we will all be complaining for another 4 years while the war in Iraq wages on, and important domestic issues remain unfixed.
Barack Obama ’08’12

Why do people care about this traitor?
He has proved that you better not turn your back or you will be as viciously attacked as though you had sat through a Wright sermon.
When he is back in the gutter (where his “friends” found him) leave him there.

Richardson is a traitor, not doubt about it, Carville is right.
Obama is a disaster for the Democratic Party; he will divide the party for years to come. He will lose to McCain in November and Clintons will be blamed as usual. In four years he will be forced on us again with the same disastrous results.
I sure hope it’s not too late for Hillary, she would be a terrific president, but it looks like the Democrats are determined to lose again, even after all these years of horror with Bush.
The primary rules have to change and the democratic leadership has to change. Nancy Pelosy is enjoying her speakership way too much; I don’t think she wants another female to eclipse her. There is no point of having superdelegates if they have to confirm (according to Nancy) the electoral results. I sure would love to see Nancy, and Teddy, and Kerry, and Richardson, and all the rest of these idiots vote for Hillary to confirm their respective state’s primary results.

Both Obama and Clinton were hot and heavy trying to get Richardson’s backing. Am I the only one that saw Bill Clinton, with Richardson, watching the Super Bowl together? Well, Richardson appeared to be watching, Clinton had the look of someone, not inhaling.

Judas Richardson why did you ever ever
endorse Barack Obama? Will it be Obama-Richardson or Obama-Wright? I have
been a democrate for 20 years but will vote for McCain if you and Obama are on the ticket. How could you have been so
disloy to the Clintons?

Its too bad that James Carvelle is not only physically frightening but it would appear that he has an ugly heart to match. His comment equating Governor Richardson’s decision to endorse Senator Obama as a Judas betrayal was appallingly disgusting and shameful. Frankly, this is the type of politics that Senator Obama is trying to change- it is the old Politics of tearing each other down.
I would like to remind Mr. Carvelle that Governor Richardson has not switched party allegiance – he is still a committed member of the Democratic Party.
The Clintons and their surrogates would do well to remember that it is the Republicans who are their foes and not Senator Obama. Perhaps the old GOP roots in Mrs Clinton has sprung new life and over-taken her Democratic Party ideals. That would explain the peculiar alliance we see being put forth with John McCain, at Obama’s expense. I urge all democrats to take note of this- we need to elect a leader who will put party before self and who is 100% committed to our brand. I for one, as a lifelong party loyalist am having second thoughts about the Clintons sincerity.

I think that Richardson’s endorsement just makes him look like a traitor. If there’s something most people don’t like – it’s disloyalty.
Also, consider that New Mexico went for Clinton. I would just sum up Richardson as someone who is looking for a vp seat or his own political advantage in some way.

Carville quoting scripture is hilarious. He’s the last person in politics who I would expect to find Jesus. I’m waiting for lightening to strike.
And actually, before the Clinton campaign had its little breakdown, I didn’t think the endorsement meant much at all anyway.

From “Sitting on the Fence” To Jumping on OBama’s “Bandwagon”
Does Governor Bill Richardson passionately believe that his late endorsement decisively bring an end to the process of the democratic nomination in favor of Barack Obama? Does Richardson think that Obama will choose him as his running mate if nominated? Does Obama-Richardson ticket help the Democratic Party to win the presidency next November if this happens? Alternatively, is Governor Richardson aspiring for a position in his perception that Obama will be the winner? Can he significantly influence the Latinos vote in favor of Obama? Whatever motive he may have in mind, he has clearly demonstrated that his endorsement is purely for political expediency or political opportunism. The practice of abandoning in reality some important political principles that were previously held, in the process of trying to increase one’s political power and influence amounts to political expediency. The Governor’s staged action and his response to the press interview are a clear manifestation of political motivation designed to undermine the political aspiration of Senator Hillary Clinton and not to keep the unity of the Democratic Party as falsely claimed by the Governor to justify his action.
Governor Richardson has passionately campaigned for the presidency for more than a year on his diplomatic resume and as a Governor. During the debates, he was strongly claiming that he is the most qualified and experienced candidate to be president of the United States. This was his judgment on the campaign trail and now he has a different view about who should lead America. He said, “The 1990s is a decade of peace and prosperity because the competent and enlightened leadership of the Clinton Administration, but it is now time for a new generation of leadership to lead America forward.” If Richardson believes that a new generation of leadership without experience is the ultimate solution for the complex domestic and global problems America is facing, why did he, in the first place, decide to run for the president of the United States? Is he ready to relinquish his governorship to a young person regardless of experience? The only person who can provide us with answers to these questions is Governor Richardson alone. But we can also provide some possible answers. Why did he bother himself to mention about Hillary Clinton and President Clinton in his closing speech? Isn’t it clear that he unequivocally wavered about his long years of friendship with the Clinton family? Although Governor Richardson and Hillary Clinton are of the same age, is he, in his sound sense, consider her in another generation of leadership not able to lead America forward? Why did the Governor mention both Senator Hillary Clinton and President Clinton in his closing speech? Hillary is a candidate to the presidency and Bill Clinton is not. We should not expect such a behavior from a true friend. His years of experience should have helped him to make a proper judgment rather then seeking immediate political advantage with little regard for ultimate consequences. Democracy is a process that should not be interrupted without achieving the end result.
No matter what political opportunists say or do, Senator Hillary Clinton will continue to fight for us to bring real change that will turn the economy around, strengthen national security, improve the environment, and restore American credibility and leadership both at home and abroad. While endorsing Obama, the Governor said, “You understand the security challenge of the 21st century, and you will be an outstanding Commander in Chief.” He attempted to lay down a new model for being Commander in Chief and did not define it. Where is the litmus test? So far we have been repeatedly told that Obama did not support the war in Iraq. Like so many other Americans, he did not support the war but the speech alone does neither make Obama an extraordinary leader nor a person who would always make a sound judgment. Senator Obama has been a member of the church for nearly 20 years where his pastor made objectionable preaches from the pulpit and he has never uttered a word about any of the incidents until recently. Obama’s financier and close political support is now on trial. Do these major incidents make Obama a leader with a sound judgment? I very much doubt.
When considering these incidents, it is proper to question his credibility and judgment. It should be clear that judgment is a capacity to assess situations or circumstances objectively and to draw sound conclusions. This implies the imagination of possibilities and the scrutiny of their possible consequences, both negative and positive outcomes.
Does the Governor know that senator Obama failed to recognize the achievements registered during Bill Clinton’s Administration and instead praised the Republican political agenda of the 1980s? The Governor told Barack Obama, “You are an extraordinary leader who has shown courage, sound judgment and wisdom throughout your career.” Where is the evidence? Without substantiating evidence, the authenticity of the endorser’s claim as well as Obama’s eloquent speech does not make him an outstanding Commander in Chief from day one.
A political motivation that aims to increase one’s political influence at almost any price, or a political style which involves seizing every and any opportunity to extend one’s political influence, whenever such opportunities arise amounts to shifting positions for political expediency or political opportunism.
While the Governor has the right to support or endorse any candidate of his choice, the timing and the manner in which he has done and the way he mockingly treated the Clintons are absolutely unethical and objectionable. He mentioned their names as a footnote. He said that Obama has more delegates and the democrats have to stop the fighting and get prepared for the general election to face off the Republican nominee. Does the governor understand the concept of democracy? Hillary is not yet defeated and she is leading an effective campaign and there are millions of Americans who have not yet caste their votes. In Pennsylvania alone, poll trends indicate that Hillary is leading Obama by 17%. Does the Governor see this as a sign of defeat? While I was watching cnn, I observed that the Governor was so elated and too happy about his endorsement and have also shamefully disclosed to the press that the Clintons had approached and requested him for endorsement. He has also disclosed his intention to endorse Hillary Clinton and later changed his mind. Why is he passionately talking about it? Sadly, it appears that he drew some satisfaction from his shifting position of political expediency.
No matter what happens, Senator Hillary Clinton will continue fighting for us to make our lives better. She will also continue to demand that the voters of Michigan and Florida should not be disenfranchised. Hillary has an unshakable trust in all her supporters that they will stay with her and eventually march with her to the final victory. Those who sit on the political fence should, however, have some patience rather than hasty personal conclusion to jump into the opposite political camp.
As a democrat, Senator Hillary Clinton does not hold any bitterness against anybody for not supporting her or expressing views different from her own. While she appreciates the wide public support she has for her plan of action when she takes office in January 2009, there is no doubt she will serve all Americans regardless of political affiliation. She will be the president of all Americans and consider herself as being hired by all Americans for this important job.
Let us continue supporting Senator Hillary Clinton so that she fights for us!
Getahun Leta

As a Superdelegate he Betrayed His State of New Mexico that went for Hillary and the Hispanic Vote which he claims to represent. JUDAS is Correct Mr Carville.

If Richardson is angling for a vp spot he may have just shot himself in the foot. If Barack Obama becomes the nominee he’s going to have to do some serious reaching out to the half of the Democratic electorate that passionately supports Hillary. Picking a turncoat like Bill Richardson as his running mate would be a disastrous mistake. So Bill’s not going to be on an Obama ticket, and he sure as hell won’t be on a Hillary ticket. Here’s hoping his opportuistic gambit gathers him a handful of dust.

For goodness sake, Bill Richardson cannot be equated with Judas because he wasn’t working for Hillary, the first lady, under Bill’s Presidency. The first lady and the President are two totally different positions.

In your heart of hearts, we all know Obama is not ready to be president-and I am afraid of Mccain-anyone who says we will be in iraq for the next 50-100 years-is scary. Mccain say he didn’t know much about the economy-so who is the best package-with a good command of all issues-Hillary. I know we have a lot of republicans on this blog-talking up obama-because they believe mccain can beat him in the general. Sorry,time for snl

REPLY TO jgaw | Mar 22, 2008 11:30:46 PM
No, in my heart of hearts, on this Easter Eve, I know that Obama is the one who has not only the intelligence and judgment but the character and integrity to lead our country in a better direction—with help from an informed and involved electorate. If we the people want Washington to be responsive to us, we need to be involved. Obama has always said he could not do it alone: no president can.
So, in my heart of hearts, I wholeheartedly support his candidacy.
(One little snark: Sorry, SNL is lame; it hasn’t been funny in eons :-)

let’s see. richardson was a nobody. bill made him ambassador to the un and secretary of energy. so richardson was then able to become a governor. plus, richardson said the superdelegates (like him) should go with what their state’s voters said, which would mean he would go with hillary.
sounds like carville got it right. but didn’t go far enough. ungracious, ungrateful, and most importantly un-reelectable.

I have always respected James Carville for his insightful commentary. I have also been around the Great Game of Politics long enough to recognize abject desperation when I see it. Only a few days ago, James was calling for civility in the Democratic Party primary, rebuking the candidates for giving McCain ammunition for the general election. I thought he had that right. When James counterattacked the hypocrisy of Ken Starr, I thought it was a bit over the top but only a bit. But now James portrays Governor Richardson as Judas Iscariot. If veteran Senators Leahy, Kennedy or Dodd, all of whom have endorsed inexperienced Senator Obama, were to jump ship and endorse Hillary, what would James call them? I doubt that James’s entirely transparent disingenuousness will work with even the more impressionable and naive Obama supporters. But it certainly won’t float with those of us who have been around a lot longer and have seen a lot more. Bill Richardson as Judas Iscariot? Come on, James, that’s beneath you. Way far beneath you.

WoW Hillary supporters are becoming as repulsive as her campaign!

OK RL: 1st and very simple Senate pork bill something that probably bothers Hillary and I as I understood it he will attend the same church just will be a new pastor since the previous was retiring. Next RL: Again ask not what or why unless you can answer what or why Hillary has not done the same especially since I asked first. Sounds like a typical debate non answer IMHO! Third jgaw: You never answered my question what has she or Bill for that matter done for the Latino community? I can remember Elian Gonzalez but that did not help us in anyway or them . There were some issues in Panama if I am not mistaken but we won’t talk about those either. Last but not least will be a positive note sort of! Thanks for your honest commentary and not led to the corral like a flock sheep response. I too had a great respect for Mr. Carville even though I knew where he was leaning I always believed from hearing him speak that if all else the party came first. I never thought this low was where he could go. In the immortals words of your god James, “Shame on you James Carville, Shame on You!” G-Nite all and have a pleasant morrow. God Bless and Happy Easter – politics aside…

Jacinto Jacinto…My church question was for None-So-Blind. Guess you didn’t see that. You didn’t answer the OTHER questions. Guess you didn’t see those either. You answered like a politician. My question was did he himself EVER pass ANY legislation-for ANYBODY? Your tirade on Hillary describes just about EVERY politician out there. Look around. They ALL just want your votes. You just better hope that what you want fits into their plans and that they know what their doing enough to pull it off. Pull up the Newsweek 3/17 article and read the media scrutiny Hillary(there are statistics) has had to take. Read the WHOLE thing-several sections. Obama’s lucky, he’s only had to take it since Rev.Wright. As far as Rezko, I wouldn’t speak too soon. He has changed his story a bit so far.

None of you above answered the question in the article. It asked what Hillary was supposed to be and the answer is Jesus Christ. Hmm.. Hillary now being compared to Jesus Christ by her aides, we really have to stop the show now and shove that woman out of the race. Otherwise, she will soon claim to be the Third Coming herself. With this person in charge, we will be heading for The Third World War. Even Bush wasn’t that reckless.

Can you belive this stuff? The employees who were fired for going through the passport files worked for a company owned by an Obama advisor, John O. Brennan(who donated the maximum to his campaign.
What was Obama looking for in Clinton’s and McCain’s passport files? They looked at his (Obama) passport file only to keep it from looking suspicious.
This Obama campaign gets worse by the minute.

Q Pulpit
Hillary supporters think they are countering your comments but they are simply validating what you have suggested. Look at the comments of Jason from MI. Hillary’s “policies” are 360 degrees different from McCain, but yet McCain will get his vote after Hillary. How can you support Hillary’s proposed policies and vote for McCain? Simple. Like many Hillary supporters and Hillary herself, they care more about her candidacy then the issues and problems that plague this country. Like you said Hillary and her campaign touts McCain as a better option than a fellow Democrat Obama. Who has a healthcare plan, opposes the war in Iraq and has an agressive economic plan. But it is McCain, who has “NO” healthcare plan, wants to stay in Iraq for unlimited years, and has no clue about economic issues, that she touts as a better option than Obama. She became emotional in New Hampshire about the “country falling backwards”. It seems her concern was more personal because touting McCain who has promised to continue the Bush policies is a tremendous step backwards.

Well Jake, trying to answer you question is tough. In a normal situation, the answer would be Jesus.
In the scenario, Richardson actually betrayed Bill Clinton. So, Bill Clinton gets the Jesus roll here. Since Jesus never had a wife, I guess Hillary’s roll, back to being the first serious female candidate for President of the United States.
I miss Carville, he sure knows how to make party lively!

Hey Q Pulpit…You sound like Jeremiah Wright practicing for today’s sermon. You can take Wright out of the pulpit but you can’t get the pulpit out of Wright and You can’t get Wright out of Obama. Right? Keep reminding everyone.

Tell me OLDHARLEY, what is “your” candidate’s agenda?

I would rather to say to Bill Richardson:
That is okay to me you endorse anybody you like even you betray your close friend.
Just don’t say anything that seems you want to defends your self.
Anyway we don’t need friend like you.
Especially on this Easter Sunday.
Happy Easter Every Body.
God Bless America

Greg from Md.
I HAVE NO CANDIDATE YET. BUT I MAY BE CHOOSING BETWEEN BETWEEN “NOTHING YET” AND “MORE OF THE SAME”. IT
IS REALLY A VERY DIFFICULT CHOICE. I SOMETIMES WISH THAT I AWOKE EVERY MORNING IN THE FOOL’S PARADISE THAT SOME PEOPLE CURRENTLY RESIDE.

Now wouldn’t it be funny if every single bridge the Clinton’s burnt in this dogged determination to stay in the race, beyond all reason or good for the Democratic party, stayed burnt?
Hillary must be really good friends with McCain, because not only does she endorse him over her fellow Democrat she is helping him considerably.
I don’t know what kind of fools the Clinton’s take the American people for, or is it simply a level of arrogance so far removed from reality? I don’t know.
In any case, if by some miracle she becomes the next President of the United States, can you keep her at home please? The rest of the world has been watching her antics and gee – well – we’ve come to the conclusion that she kinda sucks.

Barack Obama is unelectable. The best endorsement they could BUY to show he still has support is Bill Richardson? The guy said :
- endorsements dont mean much
- He would endorse who won his state
I understand why Richardson thinks Obama is going to be the nominee, but after the initial shock wears off, and you ask what this endorsement is for, it really looks backwards.

Hyperbole Much, Boys?

“Obama adviser likens Bill Clinton’s comments to McCarthy’s”, the Boston Globe reports. Meanwhile, Jake Tapper notes that “Carville Equates Richardson With Judas”:In the New York Times today, Clintonista James Carville calls Bill Richardson’s endorseme…

jacinto….you REALLY don’t have a clue, do you?

James Carville is Right. I totally agree. Instead of the 30 gold coins – now it is one of the President men.
Pelosi – next Judas

Bill Richardson was irrelevant while campaigning for the nomination, was irrelevant when he endorsed Obama, and will continue to be irrelevant when Hillary Clinton wins the nomination. I hope he gets kicked out of New Mexico too. I wonder who is he gonna sell his soul to next?

Bill Richarderson endorsed Obama for President, I can not believe he would do this given the type of Church and Pastor he has been associated for the last 20yrs, Now I question where is Richarderson loyalty and integrity, you know what I believe Obama has made a deal with Richarderson, If he gives his endorse to him, Obama may give him the Vice Presidency position. Now I said that to say this, Hispanics are people of color as well, I see a race war coming between the Blacks, Whites and Hispanics, now that Richardeson endorsed Obama, this country is going to be even more divided between the races, I hope this thing backs fire on Obama and Richarderson, because Richarderson is a traitor, to the Clintons, he stabbed them in the back, for a man he does not know compared to the Clintons that he had a relationship for years it proves that there are not true friends in politics, only betrayal and backstabbing when it comes to people like Richarderson, Ted Kennedy, and John Kerry, I hope Jhon Edwards is not included , We shall wait and see.
I can not believe that Richarderson has falling for Obama’s deceptive speeches, Obama reminds me of an occult leader like Jim Jones of the Jonestown incident of the early 1970′s, where this man was so charismatic speeches that was able to get masses of people to drink tainted kool-aid, which brought to their deaths, Obama has that same aura that follows him, no matter what Obama does, says, or negatively involved in; brainwashed, gullible people who would still follow and support him.
After Clinton has made this man one of his Ambassadors, this is what thanks he get, like I said earlier people have no sense of locality and integrity towards one another, people will stab you in the back, at any opportune time, if they think it would benefit them in the long-term in some shape or form, next I will be looking for Obama to announce that Richarderson will be his Vice Presidential running mate.
What I do not understand Richarderson thinking processes, How can Obama bring this country back together knowing that he belonged to an African Based church that has a Pastor who Preaches Anti-Americanism, Separatism , Racism, and Bigotry? This truly blows my mind, well if Obama becomes the nominee, I hope all Hillary Supporters and Independent voters switch to, or stick with Hillary, how can we put a man in office such as this? If Hillary is not the nominee, I will try and put up a Ralph Nader Blog and encourage all Hillary supporters and Independents to vote for Nader in very large masse in order to block Obama from the Presidency, and if John McCain or Ralph Nader gets the Presidency, so be it, I will be finished supporting the Democratic Party, and I hope other people who believe in my position, do the same, we can not have a person like Obama be our Commander and Chief, Obama is not be trusted.
I see that Bill Richardson is not a man of high moral character, and integrity for endorsing a person like Obama either , He also lacks sound judgment to make good decisions, Well Obama has not only have some average voters spell bound and brainwashed but some of our politicians as well, and I guess John Edwards will follow next endorsing a man one just came on the scene like he’s the Great White Hope, I’m a Black American who is saying that Obama his suckered all of the voters and endorsers who chose that deceiver and “Johnny Come Lately” to be Our President, and who is associated and crooks and other racist, Well, I see were our and loyalty, sound judgment, and integrity has gone street out the window fro a man we don’t really no about or what he is going to do in office.

Karen, you know well that James is as beautiful as his comments. Do not worry about him that much. He can continue to be the Clinton’s slave if he wants to. But thinking that a honorable Anmerican like Bill Richardson has to become a slave for the good work he has done as part of the Bill Clinton government has no place in politics. Bill Richardson is a very proud American son. He has served his country and will continue to do so as a governor of the great New Mexico. James has never run a Rumshop in his life. OBAMA08

I know James is upset However if they had gotten Richardsons endorsement, they would have used it to their advantage. It all depends if you’re pitching or catching.

Wow–it amazes me how split the party has become this election. I was excited for us to finally have to candidates that are getting more people to be involved in the process…that aside in response to Carville’s Judas statements–I have to refer to Richardson’s statement that he basically paid back Bill Clinton by doing his job well. The problem with the Clinton campaign seems to be that it has been run by cronies instead of the best people for the job.
As for the people STILL stuck on the Wright/Obama ‘nontroversy’ be more open-minded than the FOX news crew. Find out more about Jeremiah Wright and his 36 year ministry, listen to the ENTIRE sermons, not just the soundbites. I thought Democrats were supposed to be more open-minded before making a judgement about something. Guess I was wrong.

Sen. Barack Obama is a gifted and eloquent speaker. His Tuesday speech on race relations was a beautiful example of his style. It was not a “speech for the ages.” Rather, it was a politically expedient attempt to divert attention from the real issue, which is not race relations at all, but rather Sen. Obama’s judgment, or the lack thereof, with respect to the inflammatory and polemical views expressed by his pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
Sen. Obama has made a touchstone of his campaign for the presidency that it is not so much experience that counts, but rather judgment. While experience is much more important than he would have the electorate believe, he is right to focus on judgment as a critical factor in the determination as to whom should be our next president.
If Sen. Obama is the Democratic nominee, as he very well may be, then voters in November should ask themselves not how good his speech was, but rather what kind of judgment has he actually exhibited with respect to the deeply divisive views of the Rev. Wright.

My words go hand-in-hand with my conscience! My integrity is very important to me. Whatever I advocate for others, I demand of myself.
Apparently none of the above traits apply to Richardson when political opportunity presents itself.
Richardson said within the last few weeks that “delegates should respect the wishes of the voters in their states.” HRC won NM
Kennedy and Kerry said the same thing before HRC won Mass.
So you tell me? Does he have a conscience, integrity, or any veracity at all? NOPE!
Same holds true for K and K, and many others.

Nancy said it best:
I’m a Hillary supporter, but for a slimeball like Carville to call a great American like Richardson a Judas, makes me sick. Richardson has negotiated face to face with Saddam Hussein for the successful release of American hostages and he has been nominated for the Nobel Peeace Prize. Carville isn’t fit to shine Richardson’s shoes. And Richardson was in Congress for 14 years beforee Clinton even appointed him to anything.
The Clintons do not own Richardson or anybody else.

When Obama the President will try to pass any of his promissed hope and change legislation through congress., their answer will be. Sorry we’re fresh out of Hope but we have change though.
All the boys who helped carry him there would want to get paid first before lifting a spoon. It’s called the elevator effect.
Boy! Isn’t his finger gonna hurt pushing the botton for everyone.
Where do you want to go? top floor. the movers & shakers floor.
What do we get? Change if any, more like bubckus.
You students, I would not count on those $4000 just yet. it would have to pass through congress and by that time and if it passes you would have by then graduated and maybe with children already.

I would not have used the term “judas”, however, Richardson’s endorsement of Obama is a big disappointment and will only add to the split in the Democratic party. It is unbelievable that so many Obama supporters have no problem with disenfranchising Florida and Michigan voters. If they thought it would benefit their candidate against Hillary Clinton or against a Republican, they would be screaming louder than Rev Wright to protect the right of those folks to vote. Why don’t they support the right of every citizens right to vote ? Those voters weren’t polled about the decision to hold the primaries early and they shouldn’t be held as responsible. This is America where “We the people” should mean something. The divide will just widen and many Democratic voters will either not vote in the General election of will vote Republican because of outrage about the treatment of Florida and Michigan. Have we forgotten how we felt about the “hanging chads” and Al Gore’s so-called “loss” in Florida ?

Listen Up all you confussed mis-guided people. Also, for all those who post at the end of their rant that they are black person, STOP Lying. True Black People can read your post and know if you are Black or not. So let me continue. Its over for Hillary C. She can’t muster enough delegate votes to win the nominee. So get over it and come to the reality that Obama will be the next democratic nominee. For those who want to jump ship, JUMP. you were never a true democrat from the beginning. We don’t need your fake vote. So if you can call Bill
Richardson a Judas for supporting Obama than you are one as well if you don’t suppor the Democratic Nominee. Were is your loyality? But if you are a real democrat and whats to see the democratic take the White House. Get behind the party and leave your bigot view at the door. and lets support Obama to be the next Great President of these United States of America. Obama 08

Carville is and has been in love with the sound of his own voice and a firm believer in what he thinks passes for wit for a VERY long time.
He’s as snarky as a Bush.

While I don’t agree with Pastor Wright’s statements, Senator Obama asked America to try an see these statements thru the prism of a man where the defining moments of his life were dominated by racism.
For him and and many black American’s of his generation this simmering anger has never gone away. For instance, can you imagine having a family member drag out of his house because it was perceived that he broke some Jim Crow law. He may have been beaten, whipped or God forbid, lynched and burned. Many of those whose family members were treated so badly in this country are still alive and remember those times. There is no peace when people have suffered in such a vicious manner and no justice to answer these crimes. I know that many Americans feel that Black America should just “get over it”. But how does one get over such bitterness and pain.
Recently two women were killed in this country…young women who had promising lives, but there lives were snuffed out in an instance. Should the families of these two women just “get over it” as time passes. I would no more dismiss there pain and anger as I would any other person he has being thru a tramautic experience in their life.
As American’s we must begin to demonstrate empathy to one another and gain a better understanding of our past as we press on to our future.

I am completely disillusioned about Richardson. Until he dropped out I supported his presidential campaign, even contributed money twice. When he dropped out I moved to Clinton. I hoped that Richardson would be Clinton’s VP. Now he supports Obama? It’s got to be because he thinks Obama is going to win and wants to be on the winning ticket. I will never support Richardson again. I’m an Oregonian and I will vote for Clinton and pray that others wake up before it’s too late.

Tiger Woods is the most exciting golfer in decades… but that doesn’t qualify him to be president of the PGA.
Obama is the most exciting orator in decades… but that doesn’t qualify him to be president of the USA.

The reason why Mr Carville and the Clintons are so upset about the Richardson endorsement is because Hillary may loose more super delegates. The Clinton campaign has become desparate and will use anyone and anything to discredit Mr Obama at the expensive of the entire party. Hillary needs to wake from her dream of becoming President. Maybe she should consider running for Vice President. In retrospect, maybe not … she has even fewer chances of winning the VP race than the presidential nomination.

dl:I am not disgusted with Carville’s remarks. Obama is a Judas for betraying the Clinton’s. Are you telling me that your believe it was right for Judas to betray Jesus? You don’t bite the hand that feeds you. He owed Clinton the endorsement, because if Clinton didn’t pick him for his administration he would not have the experience he has today. And for the record, you are aware what happened to Judas after betraying Jesus?

He’s just brown-nosing to be veep otherwise he wouldn’t have said it.His proposal came on a double edged knife stating if he wouldn’t support if he wasn’t on the ticket.Then the proposition would have changed to the Clintons.

In response To Chuck:
Obama is not the right Black Man, Like I said before, he can’t identify with me he knows nothing about the Black Experience, he was not raise in the Black Experience and yes this is relevant as far as I’m concerned, because he could get in office and not do noting to help Black get ahead in this country. I don’t trust this particular Black man.
I’m not going to jump ship form the Clintons who I do know about,and vote for a Man, Woman, White or Black who just came out of no where preaching hope and change,this what the Anti-Christ is going to do and decieve millions of people, he’s going to look good sound good, and come to people preaching a new thing, and all the time he’s preaching lie s and deception, that remainds of Obama, Obama is so persausive, cunning and decieving in his speech tha tanything he does is alright with the gullible people he brainwashed to vote for him, and he uses speeches to kepp them in line as well, Black people are looking for some great White Hope to change and unify this country, well that will be easier siad then done, Obama and his pastor has caused more divison between the races than Bush has so far.
Obama just until now stood behind The American Flag, Obama is fake and cosmetic, I see right through him< not a bit decieved by his earth shattering speeches, I do admit Obama is a great speaker, but I would not trust or confidence in him enouhg to be President of this country,like I said earlier, Obama is the wrong Black to be nominated for the Presidency.
By the way, my thinking is very broad and diverse, I do my research on the candidates , Have you?, or you just another one of those people who voted for Obama just because he's Black. Many my race of people, are not loyal at all, we as a race of people on a whole; don't know what it is to be loyal and dependable, as soon as they think the grass looks greener on the other, they leap over into it without counting up the long-term cost for making that leap, we made such a leap on a candidate based 99% on his race without even digging into the man's background to discover whether or not he deserves to be the Frist Black President.
We Black people should require a higher standard and criteria for picking a Black President other than because he's Black and a good speaker, you know us Blacks folks gets very excited and emotional over good preaching, teaching, and speaking, Obama was able to to play that race card very well by sounding like a fire and brimstone preacher when speaking on the campaign stump, I admit he's good at it, that's because he's a member of a church who had a Pastor who preached like that, so the Black people and some Whites as well; postively responded to Obama's style of speaking, but we must always remember, Obama is a politician too, and they tend to lie and decieve people to get your vote, being a member of a church does not make one's mouth a prayer book.
Obama has mislead, lied, and did things in this campaign that's very un-becoming of a true Christan, true Christan's would not try and bittle his or her opponent like Obama does, and then hides his hand like he's done nothing wrong, and when Hillary responds back, he cries foul, and play the race card again. I as an Black American; would not want Obama to win the Presidency being known only as the Black President, but the President of All the United States.
What I see and read about Obama's political and personal background he will not be the President of all the people, not even his own race, Obama will be sending a lot of our tax dollars over to Kenya and failto tackle and fix the problems made by the Republican Party here at home. Obama is just using Black folks to get in office, and if and when he succeeds, he's not even going to recgonize or know the Black communities who helped put him in the Oval Office, because not only is he inexperienced, he's very arrogant and cocky as well, and he does not really respect women, so don't be decived, if Obama becomes the Nominee, he will have a very hard time beating the Republican's; because thery're going to pull all the covers back on him and expose who and what he's really all about, and I'm very afraid it will not be pretty. I telling a warning, this not the right Black man you want to be President of the United States, When Bush was running I said the same thing in many blogs like these, people laughed and thought I was crazy, but look at what mess Bush have this country in, I feel vindicated, because what I predicted and was warning people about Bush doing that time period came out to be true. So my fellow Black Brother and Sisters, You have been for-warned and if Obama becomes President, and he does not live up to your expectations, don't cry impeachment then, when you had a chance to stop prevent him from being President from the start.

In response to Kayak Roller99:
You hit the nail on the head, when things are not going their way in the Obma camp they cry foul and no fair in many instances, but it’s true what you said about Michigan and Florida, the Obama camp should want know one or state left out, but since it may not benefit them they’re remaining quite on the issues.
where is that so called Christan Obama?
If he was for right, he would also demand that these two state’s primaries count, and let the chips fall where they may, and if he loses or wins, at least he would have his Christan dignity still in tack knowing that he did everything he could possibly do to make the race have some appeareance of being fair and balanced by making sure that all voices where heard even when it was a political risk his Presdency to do so, that’s the Christian and honorable thing to do, but I see Obama is only a Christain in word; but deed or action, he’s a hypocrite and using the title when convienant as a cover up to win this election.

In Response to James in Atlanta
Know that’s not what I’m saying, My race of people are not loyal to anyone or thing when they think the grass is greener on the other side, The Clintons where good to us minorties in the 90′s, Hillary thought she could depende on the Black community who she though had here back, and then, what we do, we stab her in the back, and jump ship, just because we have a black candidate running of who really don’t know about him or what he’s all about,o rwhat he’s going to truly do in office.
Obama talking about change and hope and unity all is this just words of hope and no true action is going to be put forward if Obama gets in office. Obama is feeding his supporters a bunch of bologna, but this Black man is not falling for the ookie dook, I don’t trust this particualr Black person to be my President.
Yes, Obama is very intelligent, many people in this world are, but that does not mean they would make a good President, Obama is not there yet. Just because he’s Black does not automatically entitles him to my Black vote.

Very bad PR move. The “boy’s club”-Kerry, Kennedy etc…(everbody saw how far their endorsements went in Cal.& Mass.)figure they can publicly humiliate Hillary into dropping out by getting Richardson to endorse Obama. This has been going on behind the scenes for a long long time. It was done now because they didn’t think they needed him before Texas. Huge problem for them because Obama with all his money and hype COULD NOT PUT HER AWAY. Huge problem not counting Florida and Michigan votes. Do they think we are too stupid not to know what fixing an election is? Huge problem with Rev. Wright. Huge problem that there is a growing belief that they KNEW about the Rev. BEFORE the primaries and the voters didn’t find out until AFTER. Huge problem for them because THIS- not Hillary Clinton-has sent politics straight back to the 60′s. THIS is what will destroy the party. For those of us that did our share of protesting then-this is bringing it all back and the fire is still there. So bring it on kids. We blazed the trail for you.

Reponse to Darrell
Black people are not voting for Obama just because he’s Black. Many of us switched because we believe he’s offering an opportunity for positive change and because he has a uniqued ability to unify people of all races, genders, and cultures. People outside of the United States like him also because of he has a unifying appeal. Black people have been promised a lot by past nominees and presidents with little to show for it. Obama is not just offering hope. He is offering change which gives us hope. Without change we have no hope.

Great points Dennis In florida.
But your preaching to the choir. Hillary could give a speech wearing a grand dragon robe, and then say she was duped into it and her supporters would forgive her.
They dont hold her accountable for her actions. They see her as perfect. There even comparing her trials to the trials of our lord and savior Jesus Christ..

The democrats are getting a little desperate!

In Response to NJT:
Could you give me some facts and examples of what the Clinton’s done so much that you hate them so much?
I think Bill was a very good President, minus the sex rondevu in the White House with an aid, what else did he do.
What did Hillary do to deserve not to be President? What make you think Obama will do a better job as President? You know nothing about Obama, because he just cam eon the national scene two or three years ago, he has very little expereince at the national level, In my opinion, Obama is not ready to take on the Presidency, he a good speaker and that’s just about it, it takes more than being a good speaker to effectively run the White House and this country, this country has challenges that it’s going to take someone with a little more experience at the national level to tackle and fix the mess Bush will leave behind in 2009, I don’t trust Obama to do the job right.

Wright Supporter: If you such a christian why are you a supporter of racist Wright? Are you as phony as a three dollar bill like Obama who I believe to be racial himself and is using the white people for votes. All Obama is after is to make history as the first black president. Let me go on record to advise you he is not black or white, he is MULATTO. We don’t have an American black whose parents are black and all are born and raised in this country. Richardson is a phony, and a Judas like Carville said. He turned his back on the Clinton’s and if he does that what else would he do. I hope the Latino’s do not give Obama votes. We are not ready for him in the white house.

Obama Supporter: Your are so wrong and Darrell is right. Obama would put this country in a disaster worse than what Bush has done. First of all, he is racial or he would not go to that church, secondly, he does not have the intelligence to run for president. He is being schooled by different people about how to handle the white house. He has to copy every speech from others and then he adds some of his own words. Hillary did learn plenty of experience being the first lady for 8 years. What experience has Obama had. Only experience with crooks and a racist pastor. Get a grip on life.

Obama cannot be trusted, we know nothing about this man but he feel-good speeches, he just rose up out of no where, like the Anit-Christ preachingf hope and unity. Obama is not the right one to be our President, he has race issues , and a divider of this country. Richarderson made a grave mistake by endorsing the man, Igues he thinks he’s going to be Vice President that’s why he endorsed an inexperienced candidate.
If Obama getr’s the nomnation I will not be voting, if I do I will be voting for Ralph Nader, I hope othe rstrong Hillary supporters do the same, so that
If Hillary supporters are reading this blog, if Hillary is not the nominee, I will be starting a NAder Blog and encourage former Hillary supporters not to stay home, but vote for Nader instead, We should not rally behind a man like Obama who has divided this country even furhter when it was revealed that Obama sat under a racist Anti-American Pastor for over 20yrs.
We should refuse to unite this party behind Obama who has used his race sneakly and cunnally to win the nomination at the expense of Hillary who was treated biasly and unfair by the media through- out this campaign.
Richarderson was on the TV today talking about bringing the paerty together, he must have fell and bumped his head, he has no trust or crdeibility with me either, I believe he made a backroom deal with Obama for the vice presidency or some other high position in the Obama Administration. Richarderson is a back-stabber and traitor, Obama better watch his back, because Richarderson may backstab him as well later on down the road.
No I’m soory but I hope Hillary supports go to Nader if she quits the race, we will just have an divided party so be it, the males in this campaign caused it , by trying to prevent Hillary a woman candidate from breaking the glass ceiling, Men has always been President let a woman have it for a change, but these gender-biased males don’t want a woman leading this country period, they rather gave it to a Black man then a woman, and if Obama was not a Black man, I beleive Hillary would be beating him now, Obama shrewd, because Ted Kennedy convinced him that he better run for President now because a woman is running and this is heis best chance to become President over a woman, that’s why Obama ran for the White House now.
Also, Obama is winning so far, because the media sat on the pastor Wright story until they where sure that Obama was in a better position of winning the nomination, that’s why all Hillary suporters should stay home or better yet, vote for Nader to try and Block Obama from being President, which would prevent him from sending our tax dollars overseas to Kenya and prevent Bill Richarderson from becoming Vice President by stabbing his so-called loyal friend in the back to get there, and if McCain get the Presidency so bet it, the media and Obama should have been more fairer to Hillary throughout this campaign process, we will get what we deserve, because we reap what we sow.

Scotty: I give you credit for your comments. I say the same thing. Michelle has run of the mouth and Obama attends a racist church and probably is racial himself in disguise. All he wants to do is make history from the white people who gave him the wins in IA, MN, WI and SC. I do not know what those white people were thinking when they voted for him. A liar, fake and copies the words of other candidates that ran for president. And Richardson is a Judas. Carville said it right. Making a comment about his grandmother being a typical white women should wake the white people up as to what he thinks about them.

Obama is finished and Richardson simply tried to bail him out!
Noone will take those words back!
Obama is set to loose with doble digits at PA, NC, WV, KT,IN,

According to Carville’s logic, ANYONE who EVER worked for BILL Clinton MUST support Hillary. WTF??? If you want the “Friends and Family Program,” call your cell phone company. We don’t select our President simply because they’re married to a former President. No doubt a lot of people owe Bill Clinton favors. (Especially all those he pardoned from prison his last day in office.) Richardson did what the “Super Delegates” are supposed to do — he voted the will of the PEOPLE. The will of the people means ALL of the people, in the entire country. He looked at all the numbers: Who’s won the most states, who’s ahead in the popular vote, who has the most delegates, and the he went the way the super delegates are supposed to go. I, for one, am glad to see that there are super delegates who will vote the will of the people instead of “personal favors.”

Gosh! All the pro-Hillary comments come in almost on top of each other. It’s almost as if her campaign has a network set up to immediately respond to anti-Hillary comments in the “Shock & Awe” fashion.
The Clintonites clearly believe that Hillary is entitled to the second round of presidency. That was obvious before she left Bill’s white house.
It was obvious that she’d lock in the senate job, and wouldn’t risk losing it by running for President until her second term when the election would take place mid-term so she did’t lose both jobs.
Hillary has yet to prove that she’s up to the job of being a President.

Why does GMA continue to have Mr. Carvelle on their show speaking for Ms. Clinton? He is the ugliest of politcs personified.

The Rezko trial is proceeding as the wheels of justice turn slowly.
In the mold of Jeremiah Wright, another minister of hate invokes lynching as an Easter Sunday message.
Exhibiting Bush-like behavior, Barack Hussein Obama and family vacation in the Caribbean while the campaign work continues.
So, why would anyone be surprised when the DNC and the Obama campaign produce a Richardson betrayal and welcome the NM Governor with open arms?

In Response to Linda:
This is not about the man’s looks, the man can’t help how God made him, just like we can’t God how God made us, some people just look worst or better than others’ that’s God’s business not ours, now back to the subject at hand, I just had to check you first for that statement.
Carville was right, Richarderson is like a Judas, he betrayed his friends the Clintons for his own selfish ambitions, he did not care so much about Obama , it’s what Obama had to offer him, it was the Vice Presidency and in return he would try to deliver Obama the Latino vote, but one thing that Richarderson did not take into account is that his State voted for Hillary during its primaries, Obama and Richarderson are both hypocrites, because they have said earlier; let the will of the people decide the election in the individual States, and then on the otherhand, Obama accepts the endorsement from a Governor of a State that went against the will of the people of his State, so both Obama and Richarderson are talking out of the both sides of their mouths, saying one thing and doing another, in order to scracth each other back’s for personal gain.

I find it odd that when asked why he chose Barack over Hillary, Richardson said that Hillary is competent, exercises good judgment, and has the experience, however, he went with Obama because “he has something special” “there’s something about him that he can’t quite put his finger on”. I’m surprised that Obama has so many endorsements based on “he gives a good speech’ or “inspires hope” or the silliness of “he’s like a rock star”, I have yet to hear anyone endorse him because his SPECIFIC/CONCRETE plans on economy, health care, education, and foreign policy are better when compared to Clinton’s plans. (the few differences they do have were denounced by his own advisers).

I believe there still is a lot of dirt on Obama that hasn’t come out yet. His background of chosen friends proves that. Carville is right about Richardson. He is a traitor like Judas and you know what happened to Judas. Watch Richardson’s reaction if Hillary wins the nomination. And Hillary should turn her back on him if that happens. He might not even get elected as governor of New Mexico again.

i’m sick of my country always putting establishment candidates up to get voted into major offices. To all of the people who rip on Obama, Hillary has been around too long, she’s from last generation, the baby boomers need to let go, look at where they have gotten our country so far while they were in power…Anyone that thinks Hillary is the best hope for our country has been living with their eyes and ears closed. I am 22 and I WILL NOT vote for Hillary, she is not the winner, there is about a 5% chance that she will be the winner, and she’d gonna have to grovel for every single vote that she gets from here on out. She continually stoops lower and lower as she and her campaign realize how dire the odds are for her to win the Dem. nomination. Stop dividing democrats, I promise that if the Democrats put Hillary out there as the candidate for 2008 it will come back to bite them in the rear for years to come, I will not soon forget how they shunned my candidate and neither will my friends. Good luck on beating us, it’s our country now.

WOW…LOOKS LIKE WE DEMOCRATS HAVE TWO CHOICES IN THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY, A WOMAN WHO WOULD RATHER LIE THAN TELL THE TRUTH AND A MAN WHO ATTENDS A BLACK CHURCH THAT HATES THE WHITE DEVIL…LOL…WELL…MAYBE JUST WAIT UNTIL THE GENERAL ELECTION AND SEE WHAT COMES UP

Darrell what evidence do you have besides Obama’s pastor to go on about him being a liar? Please share, because I’ll be the first one to switch sides. Guess what A Bush or Clinton has been running this country for the last 20 years and I’m sick of it, as is most of my generation. Hillary has been caught in many more false statements than Barack, and you know this is true. Part of this is because she has been around longer than him, but the larger reason is that she will do anything to become president. She wants to make history, she wants to be the first woman ever to be president and she is so close she can taste it. This is her lifelong ambition, and so now that she is so close, even though she is not close enough to actually get the nomination, she will do whatever it takes to finish the job. If you believe that she has fewer ulterior motives than Obama than you are the one who is gullible. Do you not remember that the Clinton’s wallets are padded with Wal-Mart dollars? Wal-Mart makes more in a day than Rezko could ever hope to make. How much help could he even offer Obama. There is no dirt because Obama actually wants to be proud to be an American again and he will work harder to get us there. Hillary will work harder to be the first woman who was commander-in-chief, even if it wasn’t legit.

The more I hear Carville talk trash, the more I know Governor Richardson made the right decision.

What is wrong with some of you people? Reading some of the postings from Clinton supports has convinced me that we truly need education reform. Did Richardson ever say he was supporting Clinton then change his mind? No. Should Hillary’s husband call her a betrayer because she claims not to support his NAFTA bill anymore? She changed her mind about the bill (in essence second guessing her husbands judgment just like Richardson changed his mind about her.
Honestly, we all have changed our minds about someone. Think about it.

Hillary intentionally, deliberately broke the law – a law she voted for – the Stolen Valor Act. Why isn’t she indicted for falsely claiming she was under sniper fire? Her comments were precise & in great detail, repeated again & again. It is insulting for her to expect us to believe she “simply misspoke” or “made a mistake” as she now claims. Her criminal lies were intended to boost her image for personal gain – the EXACT reason the law was enacted. Other US citizens are criminally charged for making similar comments – all of whom regret “making a mistake”. Her comments were illegal, disrespectful, & cheapen the actions & sacrifice of every serviceman who has lived through hearing shots fired in anger. This proves again the Clintons will say & do ANYTHING in their thirst for personal power. Sid Zeller, Farrar, Iowa, US Marine

I have to turn the station whenever Carville speaks. He never makes sense to me.
Delegates want to be loyal to those who elected them, but Hillary is asking that they switch and vote for her. Isn’t that asking them to be disloyal?
Hillary-Bosnia faux paux, divert topic to Obama pastor to get attention off of her, etc. Wait until she submits her tax returns for the past several years. There will be portions missing, I am sure, and to submit them 3 days before the April 22nd election. That could definitely be in Obama and McCain’s favor! And the information will be fresh on people’s minds when they head to the polls. Time for a change – Obama or McCain.

In Response To Josh:
I’m a Young Black American who is not supporting Obama, I don’t trust him, and if he get’s the nomination, I still want vote him, I can’t rally behind a candidate I don’t have no faith or trust in, well, the party will just have to stay divided, I hope other people especially Hillary supporter’s follow my lead and stay home or vote for an Independent candidate if either candidate is not worthy of the Presidency, and if McCain get’s to be President so be it, I know I’m not voting Republican under any circumstances, they are the cause of allowing Bush to mess this country up for the last 8yrs.
Obama is not the right Black man to be our President, and Josh you’re going to find this out when it’s too late to do something about it, Obama is running a game on us young people who some has voted for the first time in there lives and this a real shame.
If Obama becomes our nominee, we may as well let Bush turn the keys over to McCain, because he will be our next President, the Republican swiftboat machine is going to politically eat Obama alive, like I said in earlier blogs, more negative things are going to come out about Obama and it’s not going to be pretty, the people who still insist on voting for this man who just cam eon the scene preaching hope and change is going to be very sorry they did.
And if Hillary is found out for sure that she’s purposely padding her resume to get the nomination, I will not be supporting her either, I’m for right here, I will not vote for a candidate who’s carrying around a lot of dirty laundry, and I hope you and other Obama supporters feel the same way I do about your candidate, don’t keep supporting this man as well if more negative things come out about him, that’s what you call having moral integrity, dignity, and honesty.

In Response to K23:
I’m a Black American believes you may have a point, minus the racist like connetation, my race of people have jumped ship to a Black man who just came out of no where preaching hope and change, this is what the Anti-Christ will do,come out of nowhere preaching good tidings and peace, etc, he’s going to sound so good and convincing and have a lot of people willing to follow him, but this is really deception of the devil at work.
How can we support a man that his sat under a racist and Anti-Americanist Pastro for over 20yrs, and did not know or cared what his Pastor was teaching, there’s noway Obama can convience me he did not hear his Pastro preach like this before, and if he did, why did he continue to have a relationship with his Pastor knowing what he believes and teaches his congregation, Obama is lying, he agreed with this man, if he didn’t Obama would have cut all tie s with Pastor Wright, he was also the Obama’s mentorm, come people wak-up and called a spade a spade, Obama is a racist, Anti-Americanist and Bigot in disguise, because Obama’s behavior he exhibited concerning this issue makes me believe that, the Bible also backs me up when it stated, how can two wlak to gether accept they agree, meaning Obama was in agreement wiht his Pastor, he would have left the church and Pastor alone, but he didn’t, so he guilty by association.
nad Finally, I believe Hillary can win Penn, without the majority of the Black vote, she did it in Ohio, Texas, and Rhode Island. Nad It’s a shame Obama has this party and country so divided among racial lines, if he was such a uniter and change agent, this would not be, so he has no trust or credibility in this area for me as well.

In Response To K23:
What was that remark suppose to mean? I hope it’s not a racist remark, be a man and explain yourself and make it plain to me, what did your comment meant?

K23,
You’re not making yourself plain here, what was the underlying meaning of your first statement?, all you had to say is this was not racist in nature, and let me explain fully what I meant, but since you can’t be clear on this I take it that a was sort of racist.
I’m staying with Hillary Clinton because she has worked on civil rights issues for years for the betterment of all races, but my race of people don’t seem to be loyal and can be depended on doing crunch time, they rather vote for a man because he’s Black and not on the substance of the issues, Obama is not going to bring no more change or unity then the Congress let’s him, so he needs to be honest with the American people on that, and the way it looks, the party is going to be divdied racially beyond the election.
How can Obama be credible and trudtworthy to unite the country when he blelonged to a Racist, Anti-Americanist church for over 20yrs, and also mentored by a Pastor like this as well? I don’t trust Obama, he not being truthful about the right incident, the only reason he conducted that Race realtions speech, because he tried to do damage control to his campaign, if he was truly genuine about this, he would hav broke ties with that church years ago, but instead he remained there, and even had Wright on his campaign staff, so Obama is comestic and a hyopcrite, a true Christian would have disassociated himself from Wright and his church in all capacities, a racist or Anti American could not have been my Pastor or Mentor, racism, and bigotry is against God’s Word, God teaches Unity and Love for your fellowman no matter what race or creed they may be, because we are all God’s creation and he’s our Father, so that makes us all Brothers and Sisters in his eyesight, this is one of the major attributes a true christian must live by.
So Obama and his Pastor is lacking in this area, but Obama is disguising his racism and Anti Americanist attitude underwraps, because he’s trying to be President, and I see right through his clueshay, waiting to see if he makes President before he reveals his true self where it’s too late for people to do something about it short of Impreachment from office.

In response to SheDrock:
This Black American is not in agrement with your statement about Obama, if Obama was so truthful, he would have left that church he was in for 20yrs, if Obama was so truthful he would have not waited until he was in politcal trouble to bring fourth a race relation’s speech, which is not credible im my eyesight.
Obama is comestic and not to be trusted, and whenever he gets in political heat, all he has to do is give one of his speeches in order to bring people back in line who may be questioning his Anti-Americanist racist background for being associated and mentored by a Racist and Anit-Americanist Pastro for over 20yrs. Obama is fake. He’s just waiting to give our tax dollars to Kenys and fail to tak ecare of the black community here at home, Katrina is an example of that, also he’s going to let more immigrants in our country to the Black community’s jobs, I just don’t trust this man to be my President

I think you are not remembering correctly. You said Katrina is an example of how Barack Obama will not give money to help black people in this country. That was George Bush, George Bush was the one who did not help the people that were hurt by Hurricane Katrina as quickly as he needed to. Barack Obama was still a junior senator at that time, he had very little sway over the emergency response time to Katrina. Barack still visited people displaced by the disaster, he did just as much as Hillary Clinton.

In response to Darrell
You are a republican and you are not African American you are fake you are with the rush Limbaugh crew who are saying( keep her in it so we can win it). am for Obama don’t matter what anyone says. If Hillary gets the nomination we will rally with her for the sake of the party and for what matters for real democrats. Sorry republican will not get my vote. We know your trick….Darrell

You made my point a Obama just being a Jr Senator when Katrina occured, Obama lacks the national experience to be a President, but Obama could have made a lot more noise in his party and the whole Congrees to do something more about helping those people overcome their tragedy, Martin Luther King was not even in Public office and did more for his race of people than Obama who was in a better position to rally his collegues to effectively come to the aid of his race of people, Obama has no excuse, he run’s and hid from issues that negatively affects the Black community, the recent State of the Black Union hosted by Tavis Smiley is another example of Obama ducking and hiding from issues that negatively affect my race of people, he thought campaigning was more important than atteding that fourm in Louisana last month, whatever motive Hillary had she did at least attend, that’s why I respect her more than Obama, Obama is cosmetic, he’s not going to really address issues that negatively affect the Black Community if elected President, because his actions is speaking louder than his words, it’s not what Obama says, it’s what he does or have done is what conviences me whether or not he would address and tackle my race of people’s negative issues, so far, Obama has failed the test in my book and he’s not even President yet.

Wright… Yes, we can…
Rezko… Yes, we can…
Farrakhan… Yes, we can…
“Tell me your friends are and I tell you who you are.”
OBAMA is a snake in suit…
Snakes are lethal be careful folks…

Unlike the Obama woman I have always been proud to be an American !!!!
I fear the Obamas and their cabal will disgrace America !

The Clintons are gonna lose and so it’s bye bye for Chelsea’s dreams of becoming Prez.
