Democratic Party Official: Clinton Pursuing ‘The Tonya Harding Option’

Looks like Obama has won the nomination

I used to think Hillary would have a meaningful and possibly brilliant career when she goes back to the Senate after being defeated for the presidential nomination. Not so much anymore. She’s already done irreparable damage to her own long-term career, by lying on such a massive scale that even her own friends are sick of it, and by adopting ever more offensive tactics in a campaign that she knows in her heart of hearts will not succeed. And if she thinks she can be nominated in 2012 after destroying the nominee in 2008, she’s got another think coming. Much more of this, and she will be a pariah in the Senate, and an embarrassing, painful footnote in political history. The clock is ticking.

This race is close lets just see how the votes are cast who ever did not have the gumption to named is a low life Hillary has just as much right to stay until all votes are counted.

I don’t think Hillary has to break his back; he’s doing a fine job at crippling himself…His personality fits who he is!!! His demeanor and tone fits who he is and his beliefs!!! His back was already broken when he entered this race!

Senator Clinton gets busted for a bald faced lie and what does she do? Resorts to the kitchen sink and brings up Obama’s pastor again during an interview. She is a pathetic excuse for a Presidential candidate. Thanks for ruining the Democratic party.

Why is Howard Dean being such a hardball with Florida & Michigan—Hillary will win—–Just let this move its course—It ain’t over until Florida and Michigan have something to say!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not only does this make people not want to vote for Sen. Clinton for President…I have a feeling she is going to lose the state of New York.
Out with this crappy self-fulfilling egomaniacal crap.
They cost the party in 99 and now they are going to cost the party again.

Break both knees what ever it takes to keep Omaba and his hate and anti-americian preacher out of the White House! If he is nominated Democrats have no chance against McCain! We must stop these radical liberals from hijacking this party and taking us down with them!

WOW!!!
A DNC Insider FINALLY speaks up!
Thank god…now, MAYBE, the Party can exorcise the Clinton demonic possession of the Party.
AWAY with HER!

It looks like the DNC insiders are trying to avoid the blame for the fiasco THEY created. Clinton did not create this problem. The out of touch liberal leaning arm of the Democratic party just couldn’t accept Hillary Clinton as there nominee. Give me a break. This is damage control. Obama is unelectable in the general election and the DNC knows it. They have painted themselves into a corner and now they are trying to distance themselves from probable loss in the general election that should have been an almost non-contested win.

i just read part of obamas first book and it helps put things in perspective,he hung out with and sought out in his words marxist professors,punk rock poets and ultra radical feminists.kinda explains why he would seekout ayers and a radical black sepratist minister,this shows the leapords true spots.I AM A DEMOCRAT however i would not vote for this man to be dogcatcher,especially now with the economy in this state.do you really want to take a chance that he is not a middle of the road unifier but rather a extremist by his own words in disguise.if he is true to his earlier beliefs he could do insumountable harm to this country and i am not willing to take that chance the party be dammed.

Does she not even think at all? When she knee caps or back breaks Obama and then loses to McCain.. they are both going back to the Senate. They both are going to have to work with each other. Does she not even think that these tactics may not work out in her favor?

The DNC needs to figure out a way to stop this now; before Hillary becomes the spokesperson for the RNC. Blame Dean if you like, but it’s the Clintons who are destroying the party. Mike Huckabee has a lot more class and understanding than she ever will be capable of. She remains silent, is caught in a lie (one she told just after ridiculing Sinbad for questioning her story) and decides it’s a good time to resurrect the Reverend Wright story…

From where I’m sitting, as a Democrat, it is the the Democratic National Committee that has missed the point, and continues to be blind to their own screw up regarding Florida nad Michigan. They have boxed themselves into a corner and have no way out.This race, to we the grassroots Democrats, is as close as any in history. The voters in Florida and Michigan need to be heard. And why on earth should the Democratic nominee NOT be decided at the convention?? IS that not what it is for??? (Other than you officials giving yourselves some great parties).
It is our DNC Party leaders need to be replaced. Clinton is doing what half of the Democrats in this country have asked her to do – fight for us and fight for herself.

This is just some stupid official wanting his 5 minutes’ opinion. And of course, abc just had to spin it and run with it as hard as they could. Obama will destroy himself without her help. And if the Democratic Party can’t withstand a hard fight between two determined candidates with almost equal support, they its time for a third party to be formed. I hope all you calling Sen. Clinton such as “low life” ‘Liar” “Sleazy” etc don’t grow up and teach your kids such disrespect. You will reap what you sow.

what will happen when the dems lose the black vote in this country? well – get ready for a generation of republican presidents, supreme court appointments and the wealthier getting richer!

DaveE: Or maybe it’s the throw grandma under the bus strategy that Obama perfected!!

This is the fundamental problem with Clinton supporters; they feel the rules don’t apply to Hillary.
Michigan and Florida chose to break the rules of the Party for their own self-aggrandizement and deserve the punishment they knew was forthcoming.
Hillary wouldn’t care less about the votes if she wasn’t losing by every method of measurement.

I have repeated time and time again, Hillary Clinton is an obsessive compulsive and will go to any extremes to win this election. In essence, she is nothing more than a stalker, stalking the presidency like a jilted lover and if she can’t have him, nobody can.

“I AM A DEMOCRAT however i would not vote for this man to be dogcatcher,especially now with the economy in this state.”

Come on now, Don. I’ve no doubt that Obama would make a fine dog catcher.
Hillary ’08

She thinks if she can just win the nomination the media will get behind her and the rest will fall in line… Can she talk you into this?

This is actually what I had feared. One of the senior Dem senators had mentioned that getting her to give up the nomination is like trying to pry something out of a dead person’s hands. This is her life ambition and she’s ready to take down anything that stands in her way – whether its her Democratic opponent or the Democratic party itself. There is no level which is too low, no tactic too nasty to achieve her goal.
She’s succeeded in driving independants like myself to vote for McCain if she’s the Democratic nominee. She’s the one person who can galvanize the Republicans (even the conservatives)to rally around and vote for McCain if it means keeping her out of the White House.
The Republicans are hoping she keeps up with these tactics and is the nominee – they have enough dirt on her to convince their party-goers to vote against her.

The affiliation with the conservative prayer group makes Hillary a more sympathic figure. Nonetheless I don’t trust Obama or the Clintons.

Nancy Kerrigan would be Obama in the analogy you fool. Oksana won the gold that year.

Rolling on floor laughing here….
The stars were all lined up for a Democrat White House victory in 2008. How amusing it is for me to see the party that was hijacked by the wacko left self destruct in front of my very eyes. What a great show to watch.
Right now it looks like McCain is the “sure thing”. Forget 2008. Who you gonna run in 2012?

I tend to agree Hillary will do anything to win the nomination. Too bad Obama doesn’t have the gonads to throw dirt like her, right? Isn’t that what most Americans expect? More dirt. Their silly fighting has switched my vote to that other incompetent named McCain.

I hope that after this the Democrats get rid of super delagates, they are obviously more a problem than any kind of solution.

As I remember it, Oksana Baiul was one heck of a skater

the clintons think they are the party.look at them. they care nothing for anything except themselves and the power this election will give them.

The Clintons resortign to any means to win an election?!?! I can’t beleive it!!! As a Republican, I am just sitting back and laughing at all of these Democrats finally understanding what we said about the Clintons for 8 years. They will lie, manipulate, bribe, cheat and steal to keep their power. Welcome to the party Democrats, I am glad you finally woke up and smelled the Clintons!!!

If Clinton can’t win in 2008, then she can set the conditions for 2012.
… President McCain will be stuck with Iraq, and she can use her expanded role in the Senate to say “See, I told you so!”

Slick Barry: Oh my goodness, you’re so clever!! Nobody will suspect what you’re trying to do on this blog…you’re so smart. LMAO!
I understand Clinton supporters wanting their candidate to win, but enough is enough folks. I ask all her supporters to send her a letter, pleading with her to put an end to her disgusting tactics. She doesn’t have to quit the race, just quit her gross tactics.

And this is the Hillary Clinton that said the only thing that should matter are the american ppl……She is hypocritical, selfish, and self centered. Anybody who supports her supports lying, cheating, stealing, deceptiveness, and all the other negative garbage that she carries!!!
The next thing you know she will be telling the world that Barak Obama needs to get out because he is bringing the party down and she is the only one who can beat John McCain…..Hillary is delusional, and full of herself….along with being a racist!!! She doesn’t give a damn about her party or the American ppl!!

Everyone seems to be working under the idea that there is any possibility that the Clintons would follow the rules. They never have before. I guarantee you that if Hillary could get take away the supposed black separatist vote from Obama she’d be on the front pew of Wright’s church every Sunday. The worst part is that the real losers in all of this are the American people.

Its the Dem leadership’s fault–this acrimony exists because neither of them is a particularly compelling choice. On one side we have a relatively inexperienced Senator with a history of being a bad administrator, whose basic message is “I’m supposed to be President.” On the other we have, well, a relativley inexperienced Senator with no history at all, whose basic message is “I’m supposed to be President.” Since neither of them is strong enough to run on their own merits, they’re both desperate to run the other guy into the ground to convince the party that they’ve got what it takes.
Granted, McCain is also a least-of-many-evils candidate, but he’s much more electable.

Better that she destroy him, then let him destroy the country….

Why would hitting Obama on the knee with a crowbar do anything to his candidacy?

wonderful. I want another 1968 this year. this party needs to be brought down and who better then the clintons!

David…I’m with you. Will someone pass the popcorn?

In short, everybody who said that it is CLINTON who is destroying the party and this year’s election was RIGHT.
Where are those fools who support her with their big mouths now? Miserable idiots.

Operation Chaos in full swing. Stay tuned for more of Rush to Excellence.
Obambi and The Ice Queen…two inevitable failures. Pass the popcorn.
This Democrat implosion is a spectacular specticle. We have ‘monsters’, Wright racists, McCarthy, Judas…and that is just the past two weeks. Rush, you’re a genuis!

If anyone cripples obama in the gen it’s the media. Hillary supporters won’t reward them for their slanted media coverage. We’ll vote McCain.

If I’ve said this once, I’ve said it a million times:
IF THERE IS A WAY TO LOSE THIS ELECTION, THE DEMOCRATS WILL FIGURE IT OUT!
After 7 years of George Bush and John McCain supporting George Bush, the Dems should be walking into the White House…instead, they’ll be sitting on the sidlines, again, period. Dumb, dumb, dumb…Hillary, give it up, please….for the good of what you claim to love.

Hillary is following rules of the DNC no one has reached the magic number and the fight continues.
More oever there is no caucus in Nov election and OBAMA’s nation of islam and other revolutionary guards cannot come and take over the caucuses.
Keep fighting Hillary.

There is no question that Hillary knew that the states of Florida and MI wouldn’t count- but now that she is losing she is fighting for their “rights” to break the rules. If the DNC allows there votes to count, there be utter chaos next election time= I mean, why bother having rules?
I went into this on the fence, then as an Obama supporter that would vote for Hillary if she were the candidate. After her behavior during this campaign I will not only not vote for her, but I will become an unaffiliated voter if somehow she becomes the candidate.
She has had a sense of entitlement throughout the process. She has been dishonest about her experience…and even worse,
she has had more respect for the republican candidate than her fellow democratic candidate AND HIS SUPPORTERS.

Just vote for Ron Paul. These other fools in the races are just tools of globalists anyway.

President Obama or President McCain it will not be President Hillary Clinton. It is over except for Hillary’s Gang for Power! It is 2012 now or never!

Most Dangerous Woman on the face of our planet!! She will stop at nothing! I love the recent “Bosnia” story where CBS shows Hillary doing what Hillary does best….LIE! Check it out on U-Tube or Drudge Report.

althusius: You said: “On saying last week that she landed under sniper fire during a trip to Bosnia in 1996, when she was first lady:
“I was sleep-deprived, and I misspoke.”
Now she was too tired to tell the truth. Does this woman have any scruples?”
Good point. Makes me think that if she got a 3 a.m. call, she might “misspeak”. How comforting for our security………….

Obama is a liberal democrat.
Clinton is a liberal democrat.
There are only 2 reasons to be a liberal democrat: Be crooked or stupid.
What else do you need to know?
I think it is hilarious, hope they keep it up!

Not all of us drank the kool aid on Obama. While you spineless Dems keep calling on one or the other to drop out. All I remember is how John Kerry refused to fight. Not only that was the good soldier and fell on his sword, refusing to challenge the voter fraud like he said he would. The Skull and Bonesman did his job.
Obama frankly has been spoiled his runs for office, suing people off of the rolls and now he expects to shame them with a fraudulant Superdelegate count. Newsflash, you can’t make the cut without them either! So far all I’ve heard out of the Superdelegate camp is what a racist extortion artist this man is if bribes don’t work. Uncle Tom, Uncle Charlie (which I never heard before this), and threats to target and unseat them, have greeted the black Superdelegates.
The man repeatedly proves he has no honor! I refuse to support him in the general. The DNC better understand not everyone votes in the primary and their little games could take out their chance at the White House.
Obama’s team is such a fool to paint McCain and Hillary with the same brush, because what is to stop all those Hillary supporters from agreeing with him?
Biting the hands that will pull the lever in the voting booth isn’t a logic plan.

It’s a good thing they didn’t say she would “Linda Tripp” Obama!!

Bishop .. the race is NOT close. That’s the problem. There are a slew of delegate counters out there so I suggest you try them out. Even if Hillary wins every remaining primary by a minimum of 20 points, she’s still behind in:
1. Number of states won
2. Total popular votes
3. Pledged delegates
That’s how wide the difference is. So, it’s not really close and it might be, but even that is doubtful.
The problem is that all this stuff going on in the last week has done 1 thing: enhance McCain’s candidacy. Neither HRC or BHO are picking up votes in their squabble and it is hurting whichever one makes it to the general election.

So we now have Democrats from low and hi bringing up the Scandals, foibles, and outright lies the Clinton’s have been doing for decades. We now have the Media (CBS no less) rushing to air their tapes that show the Clinton’s in their true lite.
A decade ago, everything being brought up today was discounted as the machinations of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy trying to bring down a good and honerable President.
Today, those very same Democrats are admitting that the Republicans were right about the Clintons all along.

Mendacious:- intentionally untrue; “a mendacious statement”; false – not in accordance with the fact or reality or actuality; “gave false testimony under oath”; “false tales of bravery”

Let’s give Hillary the benefit of the doubt. Bullets whistling over your head while you duck, protecting your chid…hey, anyone could simply forget that happening to them. It is an honest mistake. She forgot. It happens all the time.
Now out will come the cornered rat. We shall see how hard she bites. We have the liar versus the whitey-hating racist. Welcome, President McCain.

Hillary knows it was true because she read it in her own book!!!!!

Florida and MI
This is what happens when liberal great ideas are adopted.
And they want us to let them be president? What happened when you let them take control of the Congress – did they end the war??? NO – LIARS!!!!!

Since when is playing by the rules and fighting to the finish considered bad form?
To answer the question, its considered bad form by the person trying to beat you – and this includes the Probama media machine.

the absolute best thing that could happen would be hillary stealing the election from obama. the victim mentality in the dem party would run wild…riots and fires at a brokered convention. thus is the value system of dems

It’s time for Hillary to go nuclear. Release the story of Obama’s drug dealing days. Loose the hounds. ;)

I’m not surprised after listening to a conference call between reporters and Phil Singer and Wolfson, they STILL CANNOT LET GO of Florida and Michigan, LOL. I think that is HILLARIOUS! These fools are sooooo BITTER that Florida and Michigan are not going to revote and they are blaming Obama, LOL. Obama didn’t make the rules! Obama actually followed the rules.

I think it’s great that the scenario Howard Dean wished on the Republicans (chaos and a brokered convention) is playing out within his own party and he is doing absolutely nothing to prevent it. The DNC chose Dean as a compromise and now the campaigns, state parties (Florida and Michigan) and the DNC can not contain the damage and prevent their differences and insults from making consistent headlines. I love it, keep it up Dean, sit back and throw insults at McCain will you do absolutely nothing to prevent your party from imploding.

DailyKOS? Huffington Post? Look at your sources people. Two of the more inept and plain crazy websites out there.
Hillary is a powermongering Socialist. Obama a good speaker with NO experience in almost ANY political forum.

Its over………
McCain won and we will never hear from the clintons and Obamas again.

I have seen these tactics Hillary is using before. In the late 1400′s Vlad The Impaler employing a scorched earth policy, along with ambushes, night attacks, and the tactics of fear. He forced his his enemy to retreat but killed most of the towns people and left the lands barren.
Thanks Hillary for screwing us all just because you feel you and only you are entitled to be President!

Hillary’s plan is if she doesn’t win the nomination then she hopes McCain wins the white house. Then she’ll run again in 2012.

Tonya Harding is the perfect metaphor for Hillary Clinton. Harding revealed herself to be insanely jealous of her rival and ruthless enough to inflict injury upon that rival so she could win. Not only did her bumbling henchmen try to break Nancy Kerrigan’s leg, Harding showed a pattern of lying, melodrama, anger, and blaming anything or anyone else besides herself for her problems and her shortcomings as a skater and human being.
In the end, Harding’s ignoble behavior only served to tarnish the sport, to increase sympathy and support for her rival, to serve as a distraction which allowed someone from another country to win the gold, and to ruin her career and her credibility permanently.
Harding was a very good skater with formidable strength, a talent for difficult jumps, and dogged persistance. But she went down in flames because of her overriding ambition, her poor judgement, her inability to accept or even see her own weaknesses, and her willingness to stoop to dishonorable tactics with little regard for the consequences.
If Senator Clinton doesn’t stop her Harding-esque behavior, John McCain will win the election in November and we’ll see Senator Clinton a few years from now on “The Rhymes-with-Rich Celebrity Boxing Spectacular.”

Comments such as these from the Clinton camp are further evidence of what most real Democrats suspect. The Clintons — like most establishment DLC Democrats –are really Republicans. John Kerry wanted to lose. And the Clintons — unless they can get back in the White House to do the bidding of the Money Party that they represent — want the Democrats to lose too. They are trying to win the White House, and destroy the Democratic Party.

Lou writes that “Clinton and Clinton alone has made clear she wants the party to support whatever candidate emerges.” What a joke! OF COURSE she wants them to count, even though the results are totally unfair and were skewed to her. You know very well that Obama’s name wasn’t even on the Michigan ballot. And Hillary keeps saying she didn’t campaign in Florida, and the “biased” media you decry never calls her on it. But the fact is she DID campaign there. I remember seeing her on TV getting off a plane that final weekend in Florida and doing her “non campaigning” before the Tuesday vote. Mrs. Clinton and her husband are practiced liars who lie as a matter of routine.

As a Republican, I am enjoying the hell out of this. Hillary will probably talk about how she remembers her tour of duty in Vietnam and how she had to land her chopper in a rice patty to pick up her wounded buddies.

As an Edwards supporter, then an Obama supporter, I used to take the attitude that I could live with a Hillary nomination and, if it came down to that, vote for her in November. After observing her and her surrogates in recent weeks, I’ll have a difficult time voting for her if she is the nominee.
If she is nominated, there are times when I think that it would be better for McCain to be elected. At least the GOP won’t have anyone else to blame for the pending demise of our economy and our nation’s standing in the world.

I am Hillary Clinton, I am Woman, Hear my roar…

Wow, the quality of some of these comments is astounding.
The Clinton campaign is in a shambles. Bill is saying “stick to the issues” while Hillary is trying to revive the corpse of the Rev. Wright issue. Simultaneously. That one made me laugh. Nothing is going to take the spotlight off Hillary’s LIE about Bosnia. She will have to frame Obama taking part in a Satanic ritual in order to ruin that man, and if that happens, mark my words, there will be no Democrat in the White House this November.

The Tonya Harding Option is kids stuff ! Now the Vince Foster option….. That’s hardcore ! ! !
Barack Obama better watch out before Hillary goes Vince Foster on his butt and turns him into “Barack Foster”.
Memo to Senator Obama: Never, Never go for a walk alone in a Park. But, if you do, take along some friends and For Gosh Sakes,,,,, BE CAREFUL.

That Hillary dog can’t hunt anymore. Her own Senatorial colleagues are looking at her as if she is the plague. She’ll never be trusted in the Senate. Her career is over.

Wow, the quality of some of these comments is astounding.

It has been over since Ohio/Texas. Obama will be the Democratic nominee. The Super Delegates will not help the Clintons steal the nomination. What remains to be seen is how badly the Clintons damage the Democratic Party on their way out.

Hillary is going Tonya Harding? I can’ wait to see her sex video.

Hillary will get the nomination. She will take out Obama because this is her last chance. Any way if Obama is elected he would not be the first black president, remember that was BJ Bill Clinton. So much for the love affair with the 1990 Clinton’s…

Mike “I WILL BE VOTING DEMOCRAT!”
Ahem, McCain is a Democrat, he once pondered the idea of becoming a demo, he once pondered the idea of being a running mate of a demo, so go ahead and vote for him. Does not matter who you vote for, a democrat will be in the White House.
We Constitution, Bill of Rights believing and in general, regular type of people have no front runner to vote for, once again.

Smearjay, you miss the point. No one is saying blacks will vote for McCain if Clinton wins the nomination, although some will. The point is, they’ll be so angry that Clinton torpedoed their candidate, that they will refuse to vote for her. Republicans don’t need blacks to turn out in force for McCain, they just need them to stay home. With McCain’s independent appeal, Hillary has no chance to win without the black vote. They will hate her if she takes Obama down.

Neiher of these two fools is qualified to manage a Denny’s much less the USA. Obama’s lack if judgement where Wright is concerned makes him unelectable and Hillary is an outright liar. Once again the democrats have travelled the yellow brick road to la-la land and want everyone else to follow them. This country needs leadership, not symbolism. Great speeches and glass ceiling be damned, give me LEADERSHIP!.

Obama was the only democratic candidate who had tv ads running ad naseum in Florida before the primary. Even so he lost, and he is afraid he’ll lose again if they do a re-count, that is why he is against it. In Michigan, Obama and Edwards chose to take their name off the ballot, but his followers were told to vote uncommitted, which they did. No campaigning? Please get your facts right. Obama is afraid of the results of a revote in Florida and Michigan, that is the plain and simple reason he is against it.

Obama won when he swept the patomic and Hillary knows it. She is hoping for him to make a major slip-up and he hasn’t he has only become a better candidate because of her.
The Wright scandal only hurt him for about a week and he bounced right back. She thought it was the end that’s why she said nothing and only now had someone throw her a softball question about his pastor recently so she could get it back in the news cycle.
I can understand a good fight. But to destroy a member of your own party who you claimed to respect and admire is typical Clinton arrogance and typical disgusting behavior from that wicked witch.
Superdelegates know Obama is the best person to match against McCain. She is just hoping he loses so she can run again in 4-years.
Clinton and her legend of demnons (i.e. supporters) are pathetic.

The Democratic, Super Delegates can stop this race right now, if they would all endorse one candidate now. But, they will not or can not? Because………..?

Five Percent.
This is the chance Hillary has to win the Nomination according to a NYTimes columist. These are not good odds.
The people saying Hillary can still win don’t acknowledge what she has to do to win. She needs to either give up or DESTROY Obama.

Diabolic, Evil, hateful, dangerous, harmful satanic political woman ever rised in America.
Is it not this scriptual
If you accept Hillary as your nominee you accept doom in America. Plagues will rain as rains in USA. also Russia will be after USA with nuclear weapons. Remember Hillary said Russia PM has no soul. Watch Russia!!!!

Hell hath no fury like a women scorned.
Watch your back Senator Obama!

It must be obvious even to Clinton’s most loyal supporters that she is willing to go to any length to win the nomination, including telling out right lies such as the Bosnia – Sniper fable.
That her die hard supporters are still behind her after her story was trashed 3 ways – by Sinbad, by actual CBS News footage, and by her own autobiography, demonstrates how some Americans can be so easily brainwashed into following her.
Clinton continues her flawed campaign despite the utter destruction of her reputation by her own hand and words.
That she is willing to destroy not only herself, but take her party down with her in the process serves only to further demonstrate that she is unfit to be President.
Clinton needs to drop out now and return to her position in the Senate where she plays second fiddle to Charles Schumer quite nicely.

Is the Bosnia thing Hillary’s swift boat???

Clever. Creepy, but clever. I’m dining at the bar of the Palm tonight.

What does George Soros have to say about all the whole matter?

Obama…’a tale, told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing…”.
And now we learn that Mr. Tax-the-Rich made over $2million, but managed to give less than 1% away. Another generous Democrat. LOL. Too cheap to donate even 1% (is he Canadian?) and a large sum of that went to a racist church. At least us typical white guys donate more than 1%. How pathetic is this man?

Obama is qualified by intellect and temperament, but not by experience. Hillary is qualified by nothing but her husband’s experience. John McCain is aging. We desperately need the values and the wisdom of Mike Huckabee.

Obama should talk to some old Indian Tribes in South Dakota to get schooled up on how to survive a Scorched Earth Policy, circa 2008. He is going to need oceans of water to deal with the fire works coming his way via the Clinton smash-em-up-machine. I am a Republican who would never vote for Obama or Hillary, or any Democrat. but the idea of the nomination being stolen by Hillary does not bode well for our Democracy. If Obama has the popular vote and the delegate vote I find it to be quite immoral to take-it-away from the man. I guess Hillary’s thinking is different.

Obama was unelectable from the start but DNC thought we would be so desperate we would bite hook line and sinker. He’ll never win the GE.
Mccain for 08 “Better the devil you know than the one you don’t”!!

It’s shaping up to be a cakewalk for McCain, especially if he chooses Condi Rice for Veep. Democrats don’t have a snowball’s chance in (you know where)of getting the White House back on November 4th.

I ainto no Obama fan but the shameless Hillary Clinton came out and said that “If I knew what I know now, I would not stay in Obama’s church”. Well what happened with your husband Mrs. Clinton ? You knew that he cheated on you over and over again, broke his solemn vow of marriage and you kept quiet because you wanted to be President on his coattails one day…What happened when the chief law enforcement officer of the land, the President of the United States came out and committed perjury, obstruction of justice and suborned perjury ? Did you have the guts to speak out ?
You had choice many times in your life and you chose wrong every time. So stop preaching to us about “Wright” and “Wrong.

Obama saw this coming, why hasn’t the media said anything about this??? We know why….
Guys, I am posting this on as many comment pages and blogs, as I can, so if you see if more then once, I apoligize, but it is worth looking at.
For all the Obama haters out there, please check out the following:
http://tpmcafe.talkingpointsmemo.com/talk/2008/03/obamas-year-old-letter-to-bern.php
Can your candidate say that they did this???
Maybe he is the future!!
Take this and post it

Matt, Your Right on Target. Operation Chaos in high gear. This is beautiful watching the Democrats destroy each other. Meanwhile we sit on the sidelines and wait for the implosion. It’s the best soap oprea on the radio and television todate. I can only anticipate the outcome. Waiting.

I am voting for Obama…I don’t care who the DNC nominates, I will write in his name if I have to. McCain is not an option – he’s a liar and a hypocrite and is barely an upgrade over our current president, except he does appear capable of stringing sentences together even when what he says is completely wrong.

Where were all you poofs when the Clintons were in office? Were you blind to the obvious then? They are both slimey hacks.
The difference between now and then is that Obama is the new, hip liar and scumbag that you can hang your socialist hat on.
He gets all the free pub, Hill gets treated like a Republican in the media. I’d feel sorry for you all if you weren’t so damn stupid.
Vote for the ADULT in November! Go with McCain. This is from someone who REALLY doesn’t like McCain’s moderate stance.

I am currently voting for Obama, but if Clinton wins the nomination, I will vote for McCain. She is very evil and now I see it. I was the one defending her but no more.

Hillary will win,just like she defeated death in Bosnia by dodging those bullets. (Hey, I know what Sinbad said; he’s a liar.)

Is this like when she ‘misspoke’ about NAFTA. Is she going to misspeak everytime she breaks a campaign promise. Sounds like more waffling. The only reason she’s still in this race is because GOP voters are hoping to defeat her in the General Election. Hillary, for all our sakes, get out now!

Hillary is really running for 2012. By damaging Obama she hopes to give McCain the presidency and then she has a shot next time around, because McCain will be too old to run again and will likely be a major flop any way. If Obama is not damaged she is OUT, since he is likely to do two terms, that is, go all the way to 2016, at which point his VP has an inside track… Now, this would suggest that she is much more selfish than she cares about the Democratic party, but would anyone really be surprised at that? LOL. In fact, it may be time to introduce the word “Clintonian” in the dictionary, as in “being extremely self-serving, often in manipulative and dishonest ways that hurt others.”

I love the fact that between the two Obama and Hillary, the democratic party will be divided and How-weird Dean will have to rally the troops and pick up the pieces of the party behind one of them. Best of luck. “McCain for President”

I know guys!!! Let’s crucify this journalist an all of ‘em that are speaking bad about Democrats (our candidate at least). When oh when will the media finally stop this dem bashing and turn its focus back on Republicans?! If we don’t start controlling our media, McCain might win!

Well, actually Rosa Parks *WAS* breaking the law when she refused to sit in the back of the bus…lets talk about that a bit…

Anyway, who is the Democratic Party Official? Obama’s campaign official? Dashle who lost to John Thune? Kerry who blew a near certain victory? Or the Lord of Camelot Kennedy?
I think Hillary should avail the Tonya Harding Option. Otherswise, the republicans will pick him apart like a Thanksgiving turkey come November.

The Obama campaign is trying to stop there truly being a popular vote, but not allowing a revote in Michigan or Florida.
You can’t even truly call it a popular vote, if two of our biggest states are left out.
That is the most undemocratic thing I have ever heard of.
I am a devoted Democrat, and I have never been more astounded by, and have less respect for, the Democratic Party.
They are not allowing this election to be fair and Democratic.

Imagine that. All you Democrats are finally coming around to admit what the Republicans were saying about the Clintons years ago was true.

The 2008 race is looking lost for us Democrats. Hill took the nomination for granted, got surprised and then proceeded to destroy Obama and disgrace herself in the process. Look at the anger in the comments. As an Obama supporter, I will never vote for Hill and I believe that there are many Hill supporters that will not vote for him. She should have gracefully bowed out instead of turning this into bar room mudwrestling on $1 beer night. It’s too late now. Democrats are hopelessly divided. I really thnk she will get the nomination and then swiftboat McCain. She will be our next President and we will have eight years of unending partisanship and gridlock. Our foreign enemies will perceive us as in disarry and we’ll pay a terrible price. It’s very sad.

This DNC official should apologize to Ms. Harding. What an insult to be compared to Hillary Clinton!

Wow John, those are some pretty progressive hateful feelings your having! I do not attend any church, have no religious affiliation whatsoever, although, since I work for a living, I find my values consistently fall in line with those of the republican party. No I am not rich, an entrepreneur to be sure. I made under 100 grand last year (by more than I’d like to admit) and I pay for my Dr.s office visits. What prejudice is it that compels immature liberals to associate conservatism with religiosity?

People of Pennsylvania, this is all part of the VRWC. Vote Hillary on April 22d! Keep democracy alive!

Kind of sad that our nations leaders won’t be elected on what they can do for our country. This isn’t Tony Harding tactics, it’s going to be Shock and Awe Tactics, and our Democratic Nominee will be decided on who gets destroyed less by the other. Get me out of this country.

She can always go to the Vince Foster Option

HRC led troops ashore during the Normandy Invasion. We need leadership like that in the Oval Office. I can’t wait to vote for her.

Kind of sad that our nations leaders won’t be elected on what they can do for our country. This isn’t Tony Harding tactics, it’s going to be Shock and Awe Tactics, and our Democratic Nominee will be decided on who gets destroyed less by the other. Get me out of this country.

Bush and Cheny lied and Hillary died

The entire purpose behind the ‘Super-delegates’ was to prevent another Mondale-esque candidate from getting the nod (and getting trounced) regardless of the voters will. Now that the Supers have to actually do their jobs all they can do is cower in the corner and whine over the system that they set up themselves.
The DNC ALWAYS intended the Supers to override “the will of the voters” in the event an unelectable canidate somehow squeezed by.

HEY..
This is scary. were talking about America’s future, lets get real…none of the three are fit to be dog catcher let alone president.
America is about to go down the tubes,
race, gas prices, banks having trouble and we sit and let these fools try and convince us to vote for them. Where is Reagan or Truman when we need them???
If no one is elected does the congress appoint a president.

YES hilary atleast destroy obama before he destroys us!!!!

One situation that may arise, God forbid, is that Al Gore comes out of the convention with the nomination. Keep your eyes open. With the total division of the Democrat party this is a distinct possibility. If that happens look out. Think about why else wouldn’t the old Democrat machine step in with their voices raised to tone this crap down.
This is one democrat that would vote for “None of the above.”

her campaign is getting more and more disgusting. There is no dishonor in stepping down when you know you’ve lost, rather than turning into that which you hate.

Hey Dems…
Look, I know history (and general facts) are not your strong point.
CBS is showing America what a liar Hillary Clinton is. Well, Republicans already knew this in 92 and through both terms of her husband’s presidency.
Both of them are liars of the highest order.

“HILLARY STEALS IT, LOSES TO MCCAIN, DESTROYS THE DEM PARTY FOREVER. SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD PLAN STRAIGHT FROM A DEVIL.”
This is scary but it definitely could happen and not only would this affect minorities within the Democratic party but this would affect race relations on a whole. Can anyone say WATTS?
Posted by: tiger | Mar 25, 2008 4:37:15 PM
ARE you ACTUALLY TREATENING a RACE RIOT if you 1/2 black 1/2 white guy doesn’t win the nomination??? That’s OUTRAGOUS!!!

People are pushing so hard for her to drop out….. could it be because Sen.Obama is going to get his butt kicked in Pa. Unfortunately there is buyers remorse lurking around people who have already voted for Sen. Obama wish they could take their vote back…. just putting it out there

I think this article is horribly unfair. Tanya Harding is a much more qualified candidate than Hillary; and less likely to lie.

No Suzanne – the Obama lawyers are arguing against revotes in Michigan and Florida.
It is the most unDemocratic thing I have ever seen in the Democratic party.
They have everything to do with why there is no scheduled revote – they have been making arguments against it.
You need to be the one to do some real research.

You think this might be the reason Hillary and McCain are teaming up on President Obama?
In February alone, more than 94% of Obama donors gave in amounts of $200 or less. Meanwhile, campaign finance reports show that donations of $200 or less make up just 13% of Senator McCain’s total campaign funds, and only 26% of Senator Clinton’s.
Senator Obama is forging a new path and the establishment is bitter.

Voters are having Buyer’s Remorse about Obama. He is damaged goods over the Wright issue. McCain will win if Hillary Clinton does not get the nomination. She is the electable one. Supers, do your duty because the voters didn’t have, or get, all the info on Obama. Polls show Hillary leading, you will see. That’s why it is terrible if things are over too soon.
Fight on Hillary!

Please, stop comparing J. Wright to Falwall.
Yes, Falwell is a religious zealot who has also said dumb things, but unlike Wright, his ideology is not based on plain stated racial bigotry toward another group of people (see Black Liberation Theology, James Cone), NOR does John McCain have any extensive deep seeded personal relationship with Falwell or any other controversial religious figures as far as I know.
It just confounds me how Obama supporters can’t even acknowledge why many folks are compelled to question the close, long term, personal connection between these two men given J. Wright’s history of biggotted and anti-American proclaimations.
J. Wright is a radical RADICAL guy, and he’s one of the most important figures in Obama’s life, yet you people dismiss legitimate concerns and chalk it up to political trickery. Just Lame!!

The Democratic leadership plays the fiddle while Hillary destroys the Party.
Wake up Dean, Gore, Pelosi, Edmunds…

How can you even consider voting for McSame, the guy who even at this late hour demonstrated SEVERAL times that he has not even the BAREST knowledge of what is going on in Iraq–he confuses Sunni and Shia, he doesn’t know who Iran is training, and he doesn’t know where al Qaeda comes from. He’s positively embarrassing. And he’s supposed to be the one with foreign policy credentials?
McSame is also the guy who’d like to stay in Iraq for “another hundred years” and who is itching to invade Iran with our nonexistent, broken military and the crushing national debt that W has saddled us with and then sold to the Communist Chinese. McSame is also the guy who confessed he knows nothing about the economy. Why do right-wingers always want to elect the dumbest guy in the room?
And the worst you have on Obama is a stridently-worded minister, a former Marine who fought and bled for his country in Vietnam, a guy whose divisive statements Obama has overtly rejected?
You McCain voters are beyond lame. You must be the 24-percenters who think W is the best thing to have happened to this country.

All this cat fighting looks like a bunch of school kids.
Indeed, none of the important national issues are being discussed (i.e. Immigration problems, budget deficit, the national debt, islamic extreamist, value of the dollar, on and on)
This shows how the Dems don’t care. They can fool you with all this slime. They are unfit to lead and your choice is simple. John McCain will be there when we need him! We need him now.

Rupulican’s have been accused of seven or eight years of failed policies? You mean the policy of keeping America free from more al-Qaeda attacks? Or maybe you mean the policy of tax cuts which benefited ALL Americans, especially the lower quintiles? (see Congressional budget office data, Total effective federal tax rate 1975-2005 by household quintile). The tax cuts helped us increase job growth, lower unemployment MORE THAN the Clinton years, and bring us out of the Clinton resession?
What about the policy that enabled to keep track of Al-Qaeda operatives and muslim terrorists that might operate from WITHIN the US?
Maybe he means the policy that lead the President to appoint 2 great SC justices that will protect the rights of American citizens?
In short, the policies of GWB, for the most part, have been good for America. Just the policies where we have caved in to liberalism, socialism, and Democrats are the ones that are hurting us now.
Barry H. O’bama is and always has been an afro-centric Marxist. How dare he tell us not to call him a liberal? Does he have something to hide from his sheeple? Is Marxist or socialist a better name?

Some Republicans say voters like Obama because he has refused to help black people.
Where was Obama on the racially charge Duke rape case?
He had other things to do.
Where was Obama on the racially charged Jena Six case?
He was busy elsewhere.
Is that what makes Jackson and Sharpton “shakedown artists and flim-flammers?”
Because they were willing to get involved when Obama wasn’t?

As long as the democrats and republicans run this country; your children and mine will have no future.

This DNC Democratic Party official who said these things is a fool. We may all know this Hillary stuff to be the case, but why say it to a reporter. This does not help Obama or your party. It makes independents distrustful of your platform. This equals another Republican winner in November. Such a shame.

If Hillary doesn’t get the Dem nod, all she has to do is run as an Independent.
Leiberman did, and he won. In fact, his seat makes him very desirable by both sides.
If Hillary did run as an Independent, Barack would be guaranteed to lose.
I LOVE IT!

Of course this is her strategy. She either wins because he’s too damaged or he gets the nomination, loses the general election and she runs in 2012.
She’s absolutely creepy!!

The Dems are imploded as a party !
The world of poltical correctness are coming back to haunt them is a big way. No one wants to say the obvious about both these candidates: They are unworthy, untested, untrusted and show no history of leading. Now they show their true colors and tear each other apart.
The Law of Unitended Consequences wil catch up with us all.

Re: the Bosnia landing story. Was Togo West lying when he said they told Hillary and Chelsea to go as fast as possible to their vehicles? Heads down, etc.?
I watched the 3/17 video, and he definitely said she was being carefully guarded.
I read a comment by a soldier who was in Bosnia at the time and this person said no filming was allowed of the actual landing and exiting…but I don’t know if this commenter could address all landings, especially of VIPs and entertainers.
Is there any footage of the actual landing and exiting the plane?

You guys think of the country. You really think Obama is that great? He is just like anyone else – a trickster. You all are so bent on hating Hilary and seeing that she does not get elected, that you are not looking at who can be best for the country at this time. The minute Obama wins the nomination that will seal McCain’s presidency for the negativity of Obama will come to the forefront and he will be no match for McCain.

Wewt! Go for it Hillary! Drill yet another hole in to the side of the sinking Democratic ship! Nothin’ like a little lying, cheating, and stealing to get in to office, eh? Or even ‘leg breaking’ to get in? Great analogy… Tanya Harding would be so proud – in fact she probably is…
: )

I think Barack Obama is a very smart man and would bring a fresh approach to the Presidency. I’ve read both his books, which show a bright man with great insight. He may lack experience in government but he will certainly have advisors on which he will draw. I appreciate his bid for office.

good story and all too true. The campaign is straying from the issues and getting personal which doesn’t help anyone, especially Tonya, er Hillary.

Obama was educated by Mr. Wright more thirty years and also teached by Jones for another 20 years. Are you really believe that Mr. Obama can stand alone without any inferenced by those people.
Even five years old kids know how to answer it.

All Clinton has asked is to let this primary season play out. Obama’s campaign is too afraid to let this happen. He feels entitled to the nomination based on where things are today. Talk about disenfranchising voters and I’m not even talking about those in Florida and Michigan but those in Pennsylvania, W. Virginia, Kentucky et. al. He just doesn’t want to LIMP INTO DENVER. So, he throws everything at her including the kitchen sink. These message boards have lit up today about a story that is no big deal (now I understand the big deal about his vacation. Just like Michael Corleone, the character in the Godfather who, while at his baby’s baptism, arranges to eliminate his mafia competition – the
opposing footage of the baptism and murders is something you don’t forget. He’s sunning himself on the beach and sending out his “hit men” to do TEAMOBAMA’s dirty work. I completely understand her frustration. I will never vote for him. As soon as the lies he’s told are revealed by a media grown tired of the “brand new thing”, he’ll be revealed as just another typical politician.

Wow, no wonder Hillary wants our troops home. If she thinks a photo op, greeting children while getting off the plane is taking ‘sniper bullets’, she must really fear for our soldiers if insurgents have those new Canon digital cameras. There’s no telling how awful the scene could be then.
Both are clueless idiots being exposed for their…ahem…embellishments and racist, socialists agenda.

These poor, pathetic people call themselves Americans. They purport to love our way of life, yet are willing to change their party affiliation and cast a false vote to boost one who they feel is weaker. I though that the goal was to vote for the person we think will best represent our own feelings on the future.
We have become a country of ignoramuses.

Jonath:
Let me get this right. She works for WALMART for several years, takes a 8yr photo-op at the white house, wins office in NY because of her name and now, SPITUNK! She’s ready to be president?

I have long known come to realize this, it is no news to me.

Hillary should go home and pray for those bold face lies she has been saying..SHE’S THROUGH..

The woman is a walking mental nut job who is taking orders from Penn and Wolfson who in turn are pulling BIG bucks from her so there is no hope unless the powers that be step in and bring her machine to a halt. Penn and Wolfson won’t because once she’s outa the race their paycheck goes in the toilet…but hey to all you Clinton supporters…go ahead and keep sending the liar money and to the people on PA? Go ahead and vote for her…and then you too can lie when this is over and say you didn’t. Clinton proved she is a liar when the truth would have done her better.

For the sake of arugment, let’s assume that Clinton’s “experience” as First Lady is exaggerated (or even grossly exaggerated). It is still far more experience than Obama has. In an effort to discredit Clinton, it is a mistake to minimize the role of the First Lady. While First Lady, Clinton was accused of having far too much influence. Did everyone forget that? So while she is First Lady she is accused of having too much influence, and now that she talks about that influence in her campaign, we are saying it is fictional. Does anyone really believe Hillary didn’t have influence in policy while Bill was in office? Come on people. But this is an aside. You guys are KILLING the Democrats chances of winning in November. STOP. Our only line should be, “Both candidates will make excellent Presidents and we support whomever gets the nomination”. We have lost sight of the fact that we are supposed to be on the same side. And before you tell me it is Hillary or it is Barack that has lost side of that – I ‘ll tell you I don’t care. We need to be bigger than that. The Republicans are laughing their rears off, seeing the Democratic party tear themselves apart. If we lose in November, it is because we deserve it.

We in China pay lotta money to Clinton,
If she no break this Obamba, we still break America´s back. We send lotta toys with lead paint think you all stupid now. Clinton promise they wrap this up real good. No problem, McCain just so good for China too. Make 100 year war, China get very rich. Clintons get rich, we all win.

As a big Obama supporter and a clinton fan(more bill than hill), the clintons are going to try my patience. Both mccain and clinton are huge lobbyist insider players and the people now know it very obviously. The establishment Democrats saw republicans winning elections and decided to mimic them as a ploy to win elections. The republicans fostered the outsourcing of jobs and the destroy the middleman theory(thanky billy boy gates), and the DEMS joined in as seen by a speech given by Terry McAuliffe and Al From that can be easily retrieved from the archives. Terry(chairman of anything) McAuliffe now heads Hillarys campaign and I keep wondering where is Al From???? James Carville is suspect as soon as he gets up in the morning becasue he and Mary matalin give me the CREEPS. The Bible warns you about the insects that CREEP upon the earth and those are 2 fine examples. Carville is looking very bad on the health end of things and if he indulged in too much cocaine, he now looks the part, don’t he???? If you want change and want to attack the lobbyist swill then Obama is the obvious choice and many voters know it. I say landslide these insider con artists and you also attack the MAINSCREAM clown media who prop that stuff up daily. Israel, you got taken badly and the quicker you realize it the better off you will be. CASE CLOSED…NEXT!!!!

I Think alot of people are afraid to have a women running the White House.. But The Main issue is Medical, Poor and the Elderly! The Disabled and how are country is in debt.. Who will get is out of it !!!!

I’ve followed politics for over 30 years and I have never seen such insanely biased coverage of a political figure…as I do every day of the week regarding Hillary Clinton. (And by the way, I’ll vote for Hillary or Obama, and find many things about both that I like and dislike.)
Every day, somebody tries to outdo another of the supposed political insider reporters to come up with a new catch phrase that spreads across the internet, finally reaching the ultimate fools…the TV talking heads.
Today: It’s the Tanya Harding Headline…good lord.

clintons are power hungry and just like birds, they poop on everything.

What is wrong with Obama’s church? I have listen to the whole sermon and the pastor did not say anything wrong. Why don’t you guys listen to it too and quit whinning.

Oh if Obama represents hope and change and he equates to the new kind of politics, what the he*ll was he doing with REZKO ?!!!!!? Perhaps they were at that coffee shop chatting about meditation and mind and body cleansing?

NOT THIS TIME, HILLARY!

THE only hope that obama gives is that he will lose!!!

I think people are reading too much into Rev Wright. I read and heard what he said. He is not preaching hate. He basically is blaming our foreign policies for 9/11. We have done things overseas that we had no business doing and they hate us for it. And now this mess with Iraq makes us left safe and more vunerable.

I would like to know why obama is in such a hurry to have clinton drop out, what is the point in living in a country where we have “free elections” is we cannot have two canidates be able to let the public choose, unless ob is afraid that the public is starting to see past the picture the media is painting of him. wright? landing in bosnia? I think wright’s comments have done more to seperate the country, the canidates, if ob has such great character why did he not take his family to go visit granny and mend those fences. He has lost so many votes people will not vote for him in ge mccain will win. ob will not be able to stand up to him, mccain will stomp on him like a bug, we are in a war, the economy is in horrible shape, we need healthcare, and we need someone who truly wants the country to go forward, ob supporters are the ones who needs to see past skin color

All you people that come on these blogs and post that you would never vote for Obama should think it over. Hillary can’t win this nomination and if you would not vote for the eventual nominee of the democratic party then you should not be registered as democrats at all.
Obama will win the nomination and if he does and you haters don’t vote for him you will get exactly what you deserve…. JOHN McBUSH

The last time I check this was a competition. Hillary Clinton should do what it takes to win. As should all the candidates. If you want something, fight for it! Nothing wrong with that!
Frankly, I am a republican, I am not sold on John McCain, so I was taking a look at CLinton myself. I admire her willingness to stand her ground.
She’s a fighter, that’s what this couuntry needs now. Is someone to fight for its people, that are not in to top income bracket.

The comparison of Mrs. Clinton to Tonya Harding just made me laugh.
Thanks!

If Hillary has something on Obama she should bring it out NOW. Because if she can do it, then McCain could in the general election. Bring it on Hill. Take his knees out.

While Obama and Clinton slug it out, get ready for the Bush/McCain administration.

Obama’s Camp has gone to the gutter.
No one is fooled with what they are up to.
However, they have only smeared themselves.

Hahaha. Just step out to show your face and name.
Obama is gone. If he is not gone this Sept. he is gone this Nov.. Just ask yourself, which candidate, from Republican to Democratic to independent, can survive this paster/church scandle?

AFTER THIS GENERAL ELECTION 2008 THE DNC SHOULD KICK OUT AS CHAIRMAN. HE REALLY SCREWED UP THE DNC THAT’S WHY HE DID NOT GET THE NOMINATION LAST TIME.

This is ridiculous. No candidate can be held responsible for anyone else’s comments or point of view. They can only be responsible for their own. Whatever happened to discussing the issues? Also, isn’t it funny how the Clinton’s play with words? Hillary didn’t lie about Bosnia (wink, wink), she just “misspoke.” (More than once, I might add)And as soon as her honesty came into question she threw the Reverend Wright story right back out there. She will do anything to win, plain and simple. Unfortunately, that includes destroying the Democratic Party in which case no one will win. I have far less respect for the Clinton’s now than I did before South Carolina. And the Reverend Wright comments were pushed by Fox News and not shown in context.
Obama 08
Al Franken 08

Clinton doesn’t need to bring anything out about Obama, Fox will do it. The candidates don’t need to do too much to find dirt nowadays, they just need to wait until it drops in their lap. The Wright thing was around for quite sometime, in fact there was mention of it in a article in a 2007 edition of Rolling Stone and various other articles throughout the Country- the press just opted to not pick up on it for some reason.

Let America Continue to Hate Herself
It’s no wonder why the young and the educated support Obama. Reading some of these posts makes one wonder how do some people breathe without help… The lack of intelligence out there is scary. I wonder what some of you all do for a living? Remember, you put Bush in office so I hope you are doing very well-hope your job didn’t get outsourced (Hillary, McCain, and Bush’s big idea).

And David Axlerod is Shawn Eric Eckardt (the hit man) and Obama is Gillooly (Tonya’s ex-husband).

I think Bill Richardson got it right when he said there is a sense that the Clinton campaign feels the Presidency is an entitlement for them.It’s a race that is already over and mostly because HRC ran an arrogant campaign that didn’t bother to do the little things like returning to Iowa in time to secure her delegates and Edward’s as well.This arrogance has put her impossibly behind and too pigheaded to realize that she’s done.

Some of the comments on this thread are shameful and disgusting from Obama supporters.
Just read where the US one of the most is one of the most unstable countries of civilized nations( #93 out of 100). Now I see why.

I would like to know who this anonymous Democratic official is. I mean come on…everyone is taking sides. To compare Clinton’s campaign to what Tonya Harding did is just wrong. When is the media going to ask the tough questions of Obama? I agree with a comment made here about how Obama is always crying “foul”. His supporters are some of the most negative, hateful individuals that I have come into contact with. When I say that I am voting for Hillary, I am called a racist. All they can do is bash the Clinton’s. I am sick of Hillary’s supporters having to walk on eggshells for fear of the media spinning everything they do and say into a major news story.
I was an Obama supporter early on, but realized, late last year, that this man seemed to be all talk and no action. I was awe-struck by his speeches. There is just no substance there…no good work, no history…that would make him a good president in my eyes.

Hillary lied it’s simple as that. If people want to vote for someone that lie go ahead. Talking about wright she made a point that we have the choice on who is our pastor but she forgot also that we also have that choice for our spouse.

Has anyone heard anything more about the Obama passport scandal. The last I heard his passport file was entered 3 times and the guy that did it was employed by a company whose owner is one of Obama’s supporters. So they figured the file was breached to find information and perhaps change the information to benefit Obama. Anyone heard anything else?

It seems to me that it take extreamly low IQ and total gulability to continue reading this blog out

Hillary would never win as an independent. McCain would win the white house because the dem vote would be split

user168: Thanks for answering that question. I posted the same about Hillary and didn’t receive an answer, so I guess there isn’t an answer for her.

I feel my IQ dropping just by reading this post! I was so excited to see the implosion of the Dems; thinking to myself that McCain is great. Then, McCain opened his mouth again and I realized how doomed we all are! What an idiot! How screwed are we? On the one side, we have 2 lying, incompetent liberal pieces of crap and on the other, we have a liberal, moronic fool! May God help us all (oops, I’m sorry, didn’t mean to bring the big man into it). Additionally, I would like to out that in my “white elitists” church, we blame the poor black man for all our troubles. Ya, right! Our preacher/priest does his sermons on love, tolerance and forgiveness; not hate and blame! As I see it, we should accept no less from all communities nation wide than both separation of church and state and separation of state and church!

Obama lied about not hearing the sermons. He did not even come out and say that he did not hear the 9/11 sermon by Wright. He left too much wiggle room. His explanation kept changing.
He lied BIG and he is trying to divert attention. If he can’t stand up to Hillary, he should go back to southside Chicago.

Another example of media bias favoring Obama. What kind of comparisoin is this?
There are millions of people that believe Hillary is the right candidate to solve this country’s problems. How about our voices.
The primary is about picking the right candiate. Where does it say she has to drop off after Super Tuesday? If Super Tuesday is the final day to pick a candidate and the primary rules should be changed.
I think the American people realize that the media bias against Hillary gave a favorable advantage to Obama, pratically a free ticket. Now that his background, voting record is be scrutized more, the “real” Obama is coming to light and the American public dont like what they see. All along, just empty speeches but no substances from Obama.

Quote from Anonymous Democratic Party Official: “She will have to destroy Obama, make Obama completely unacceptable.” Message for the “Anonymous Democratic Party Official”. Haven’t you heard the news? Obama has already made himself completely unacceptable to most of the American public. And he’s already been trying to destroy her. Really this reporter’s article tends to remind me of a tabloid what with it’s unnamed source and all. Why didn’t you take the following information and make it into something sensational as well? Here’s a quote from the Washington Post (google it) January 2008 “The natural reminder here is O.J. [Simpson] — how does an African American candidate attack a white woman?” quote by Jesse Jackson Jr.(D-Ill) and Obama’s campaign co-chair. We’re just waiting for the mainstream media to catch up here and give us some cold hard facts on Obama and his associates. Here’s hoping Hillary can shed some light on the matter!

This is absolutely disgusting. Hillary loses either way. She will do permanent damage to her political career and her legacy. She will become the most despised political figure in America.

Hillary is an evil person, with so much information out there it defies belief that people still support her.

Hillary is one disgusting individual. She is pathetic.

She can’t do anything to Obama the Republicans won’t do to him after he’s nominated.
Its called politics. Fighters win. Whiners usually don’t in the end run.
If she does put him throught the ringer, which she hasn’t, she will be doing the Democrats a favour.
The Republicans won”t play nice and if he can’t deal with the big guns then he shouldn’t be nominated.

OBAMA DID NOT LIE, HE SAID HE WASN’T IN CHURCH WHEN THOSE TWO PARTICULAR SERMONS THAT HAVE BEEN CIRCULATED WERE GIVEN. Clinton supporters at least tell the truth since your candidate doesn’t know how too.

Hillary is evil and a miserable person . Many Americans, know win at any all cost..So Dem’s you better stop her now while you can. cuz shortly very shortly a massive unfix-able destruction of the party will take place . and all will be able to put the blame squarely where it belong on the Clinton’s Hillary head.
Supers can get rid of her now by vote and supporting Barack Obama. Do you job save this party.

To “I H8 Obama”
you are obviously a Republican…so back off.

I H8 Obama, don’t switch parties, vote for Mike Gravel.

Hillary Clinton is a sore loser. She just can’t accept defeat. She is now on a mission to destroy the Democratic party and hand George W. Bush a third term in the form of John McCain. Disgusting.

Cal me an Obama Girl if you like but I’m liking him more and more every day.
Tiger Woods in a suit!

I would very much like to see a non-racist, America-loving candidate in the White House come 2009. That means a choice of two: Hillary Clinton or John McCain. What do I care what happens to that racist, America-hating Obama? Break his back… break his spirit… break whatever you have to. GO HILLARY! OR, MC CAIN!

If you take a look at the Hillary supporter’s posts, and then those of the Obama supporters, one thing is very striking; Hillary supporters are literally uneducated and ignorant. Amazing.
Hillary got the dumb, intolerant vote, good for her! Who knew that 32% of the Democratic Party were racist, uneducated bigots? I thought the repubs had that demographic locked down.
:/

Stick by your Hillary all you want, but she’s proving to be a pathetic sore loser. Her political career is over. She is DONE!

If Clinton can tear down Obama to get the nomination what do you think the Republicans will do if he runs against McCain in the general election??? If Clinton can tear down Obama she SHOULD get the nomination because she will be harder for the Republicans to tear down in November.However,it doesn’t matter anymore who wins the Democratic nomination. Obama supporters won’t vote for Clinton and Clinton supporters won’t vote for Obama… The only ticket that will possibly stand a chance is a Clinton/Obama ticket. If Obama really wanted to make a difference he would go for Clinton VP for 4-8 years,then Pres for another 8 years. 16 years to get the country turned around and embracing the 21st century…. how’s that for a dream????

Hillary Clinton will not win the nomination. So that means that she can NOT win the presidency. She will NOT even win in 2012. Her political career is over. She’s a failure.

Poll: Obama way ahead in N.C.
21-point lead the largest so far
(Raleigh) News & Observer
Hillary Clinton in N.C. on Thursday
Barack Obama is way up in the latest Democratic tracking poll.
A survey by Public Policy Polling showed the presidential candidate with 55 percent to rival Hillary Clinton’s 34 percent in North Carolina.
The results came after two high-profile speeches by Obama: One on Iraq in Fayetteville, and another in response to video of his minister, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, condemning America.
“This 21 point lead is the largest he has shown in any NC polling to date, and an indication that the Wright controversy isn’t causing him any long term harm at least in this state,” wrote pollster Tom Jensen on his blog.
The automated poll of 673 likely Democratic primary voters was conducted on March 24. The margin of error is plus or minus 3.8 percent. The Democratic polling firm is based in Raleigh.
In the March 17 poll, Obama led 44 to 43.

OMG people. By all means everything a person has done in college, elementary school, high school or in their entire life time should be held against them for all eternity. Hillary supporters are so-self righteous. Yet, no one is holding Hillary accountable for Whitewater. Obama says he wasn’t in church the day Pastor Wright gave the two inflammatory sermons, which wasn’t a lie. Hillary supporters call him liar because he later admits that he has heard him express firery political views which is not the same as saying he was their on those particular sermons. Hillary makes up a complete and total lie about her trip to Bosnia and she calls it “misspoken”. Hillary supporters buy into it.

All I can say is that most of the Obama supporters most likely voted for George W. Bush. And it doesn’t take a College grad to see where those opinions got us…

What is Barack Obama’s ultimate agenda? I am one of very few white people who made the acquaintance of members of the Black Panther party. I challenge anyone able to define the facts about Obama and the Black Panther party to do so. Youth receive military training in asphalt parking lots, one aim is to over throw the American Government. It may be about to happen folks. Respond and I will give you more. I am surprised the link to the Party was ever listed on the Obama Campaign Website as secrecy is practically hermetic as far as whites are concerned. “They” are very frightened this information is getting out there now. Very frightened. After all surprise is tactical advantage in every conflict and Obama’s hands are dirty!

Hillary is a blue chip stock.
Obama is a dot com.
Where do you think voters are going to put their money in Nov?

I believe Obama will win the nomination because he will have the popular vote plus the most delegates. And the super delegates will go with him because of it. But the DNC will work it out with Hillary that she will be in the cabinet but not VP. Believe it or not a lot of these super delegates really are tired of the Clinton politics. They are ruthless and they need to get off their high horse thinking this is owed to them

I can’t believe people are still for the “carpet begger” Clinton. Do we really want Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton?

Mayor Bloomberg to the rescue???

Hillary will not win the nomination. Her political career is over. She’ll be lucky to win re-election to the Senate. Her legacy is forever damaged. She’s a FAILURE.

Hillary lied about Bosnia, lied about her knowledge of illegal contribution funds from a Peter Paul fund raiser.
She promised NY state 200,000 new jobs if elected to senate; result: no new jobs, in fact the state lost 30,000 jobs. She blamed Al Gore??
Hillary has a strong pattern of lying to the people. Pennsylvania beware, do not trust what you here from her. In Ohio before their primary she told voters she was against NFTA while in the White House. After the primary her papers documented that she played a very important role in some support NFTA meetings promoting the benefits.
Does she just misspeak or lie? I know one thing for sure, I can not trust someone who lies about jobs or illegal activity. No trust, no vote!

Like it or not…it is true that many of Clinton’s supporters will either not vote or go with McCain just to stick it to the DNC should Obama get the nomination. How stupid are they? To not allow millions of people the same right that we were given to choose our Democratic nominee for President just because of the state that they choose to live in. The DNC really screwed themselves this time.
It is just wrong…no matter who you are for..no matter what political party that you are affiliated with.

It is time for Hillary to step back, and devote herself to her party and to the United States Senate. She has a lot to give in her role as a senator. However, her quest for power is not helpful to the Democratic Party, and could result in McCain’s victory.

I H8 Obama,
What would you have us do? Wait for the Pres to have an affair before bombing a country? Quite frankly, the Iraq war wasn’t over “oil,” it was over Mr. Insane breaking his surrender agreement from 1991. If we allow the surrender to mean nothing, we lose everything! There is no fear or respect throughout the world (our bark is worse than our bite). Beyond that, we have taken every precaution to ensure the safety of their people without endagering our own. Our soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines are making great strides against an enemy that would have no hesitation in destroying an entire American city much less one of their own. Most of the people of Iraq have been very friendly and helpful in our persuit of the extremist. I would also like to point out how the Dems have claimed that although we don’t support the war, we do support our troops; then, try to cut the funding for our troops protection. Additionally, I would have you check-up on your history! WWII was worth the risk/loss, right? Eventhough we took casualties well after the surrender of the Germans and Japaneese, we are still in Germany and Japan. Your closed, CNN view on this is disturbing!

obama’s not racist….he just has racist friends, supporters who call other African-Americans “Uncle Toms” if they support Senator Clinton and he dishonored and abused the name and memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. by falsely and maliciously accusing Senator Clinton of somehow diminishing Dr. King’s legacy by simply acknowledging President Johnson’s contribution to Civil Rights, thereby manipulating the sensibilities of the African-American community for his own political gain…..but no, obama’s not racist…..

So does this Democratic Party official know about Obama that the rest of us should know?
That is the real question.
Did you think to ask him why he’s so sure she could knee cap him if she chose to?
Won’t the Republicans do it anyways?
A very interesting comment indeed. A real political journalist would have explored that opinion a little further.

i genuinely feel sorry for obama supporters…..they are so enamored with their political deity obama (although they seem more interested in feeble attempts to destroy Senator Clinton), that when the inevitable downfall of his campaign comes this year, the emotional letdown they experience will be terrible

I don’t know maybe things will change after the Phila,debates.. Maybe better for or worse. However I believe that Pa. will be her last stand. She has to watch what she says, and how she says it. For someone who wants to win she sure is setting herself up to lose. However she still has my vote. Greg

only Senator Clinton is capable of achieving the results that will greatly benefit our children, our troops and America…..you do care about our children, our troops and America, don’t you?

Just one line…if Hillary is the nominee, I will vote for McCain…or just not vote. Going into this, I could have supported either of the democratic candidates, but she doesn’t care about this country…just winning at any cost…which ironically, is impossible now since we all see what she is…bitter and crooked

encouraging self-motivation…..like teaching someone how to self-teach themselves….

For all you Hillary supporters, suck on this! Hillary is/was on the armed services committee that presented the Iraq intel and recommendations to Bush and his advisors.

The moral story here is that it’s possible for her to win. I take an ugly win any time over any pretty loss.

Take it to the floor Hill!
They seat MI and FL or they lose the white house and much of the congress and senate.

Photos of Hillary next to Tonya Harding? It only motivates me to fight this ugliness with larger donations & more activism. Hillary Clinton in 2008.

Hilary Go HOME.
It’s ok, we love you more than you love us. Go home and let us vent your greed, selfishness and lies.
HILARY GO HOME.
HILARY GO HOME.

If Sen Obama gets the nomination without Florida, count FL as a Republican state.
You can bet on that.

Millions of voters PREFER Hillary Clinton. The media WANTS Obama. Some of the newsites act as if NOBODY supports Hillary. Talk about disrespecting the people. Don’t voters in Ohio & Texas count? And, enough with the links to stripper girl Obama videos. What happened to JOURNALISM?

It’s so cute when people try to convince themselves that McCain has any chance against either one of these two.

Interesting story about Rush Limbaugh’s Operation Chaos running into trouble in Ohio, it’s illegal in Ohio to switch parties to vote when you have no intention to support the party. I doubt they’ll take time to prosecute but it’s interesting, Rush got 16,000 Republicans to vote for Hillary. Rush is furious, lol.
People should think long and hard about how Hillary would fare in the general election. The downside of claiming so much experience in the Whitehouse is that it is so much already known.

i think its funny you say that seems how he has had to answer to everything anyone has on him and hilary is laughing because no one has asked her once about how David Rosen is doing now! everyone who crossed her knows how she loves power and could care less about anything else!

To all acting as if some odd system of caucuses has been installed to steal something from Hillary:
This system has been in place for many many years. It’s a system that Bill managed to survive just fine. They knew the rules. They just got out-smarted.
If she can’t figure out how to win by the rules her campaign knew going in, I’d say her odds of winning the electoral college are slim to none.
More importantly than that, even if she wins, she would never be able to govern successfully because a good 55% of the nation now hates her. I used to say this wasn’t her fault… that she was a victim of the slurs of the Right. Well, now it IS her fault. She hired Penn, etc. This shows very bad judgement IMO.
BUT whether it’s her fault or not, nothing can change the fact that so many Republicans (and now Democrats too) can’t stand her. How would she ever be able to govern?
Every single Senate and Congressional race in the country will turn into a race against Hillary. They’ll use her the way the Democrats ran against Newt.
Bye Bye Congress.

Super delegates if you are listening to the news. Take control you can do it . Pledge yourself to Obama. He will unite this country and bring a fresh new perspective to this country. Remember the world is watching. World leaders will not be able to trust Hillary. Get rid of her now. Do Not let her take the party down.

There’s a huge difference between a fighter and a commonplace schoolyard bully.
As well, I often say the supporters can and will reflect their candidate.

I say to all of you non loyal democrats, go ahead and vote McCain. Maybe he will send your sons and daughters over here to help me fight this God forsaken war. To say you will turn your back on the democratic nominee is like slapping me in the face. You might as well say, “hey soldier, you know I really don’t agree with you being over there, but I’d rather you lose your life than see that black man in office.” I am a Democrat and whichever name ends up on that ticket in November is the one that gets my vote. I AM READY TO COME HOME!!!

This is the best election ever.
In order of preference for me..
Obama, McCain, Clinton. Three very gifted leaders. America cannot go wrong.
Let’s stop bickering and get ready to support any of these leaders if they win. We have a lot of work ahead and not one SINGLE leader can do it all.

I think the Rep leadership of FL set up the Dems and the Dems walked right into it. I believe most men do not want Hillary for president; most men would vote for ANY other male on the ticket, not even knowing what that male represented. I can not vote Rep due to the condition of the planet. If Obama is the Dem candidate, then I will write-in Hillary. Bill did a great job as pres. and I believe two heads are always better than one; and both are intelligent!

obama is white too! how can you be a racist against yourself? anyway your right hilary isnt a racist or a sexist – she takes no prefrence in her victims, with her we are sure to all lose!!! go HILARY!

I think this is dead on-point – She doesn’t care about anyone but herself – taking Obama down is a no-brainer for these self-obsessed liars. McCain will be the next President if this continues but we won’t forget what Clinton has done to Obama – she’s finished either way.

Dems and liberals…step back from your internal bickering and whining and observe. YOUR PARTY IS IMPLODING. You are playing the tune every Repub. wants, and you don’t even realize it. This whole campaign season has shown me why I am so glad I am not a liberal or demo. You can’t even get out of your own way!!!
I consider myself conservative in nature, but don’t label myself as a Republican…I’m more of an American. If you ask me, politicians/canidates no longer serve us…it’s all about themselves. They are all full of it…When will you so-called Americans stand up and take this country back?? It’s time for a political revolution!

That lie she told about that little trip to Bosnia is a symptomatic of her pathological need to exaggerate her experience factor. Clinton’s one claim to fame regarding health care essentially ended that discussion for well over a decade. She got it wrong about Iraq, which speaks to a lack of judgement. The rest is nostalgia for her husband’s legacy and her familiarity because she grabs every photo op along the way. She refuses to release her tax returns which shows a lack of transparency. So if Ferraro can say the Obama got where he is because he’s black, then Hillary got where she is because of her husband. She should bow out gracefully before it gets too ugly.

dlaxmi…you go! Very well said…in all caps too. You must be pissed off about all of this…I totally understand.
It is not about being a sore loser. This is not about winning. So many people bash Hillary, blame her for what is going on in the Democratic Party. She has every right to stay in.
I am not sure what it is with Obama’s supporters…something in the water…maybe the rose-colored glasses that they are wearing…But they can get nasty and negative. I do think that there are a lot of Republicans that have nothing better to do with their time other than to throw jabs at the Clinton’s.
Why people focus so much on the negatives is beyond me. Why the media…Fox doesn’t count…choose to cast Hillary in such an unfavorable light and give Obama every benefit of the doubt is also beyond me.
Since the media is so biased, research Hillary and Obama yourselves before making such negative statements people! Do not focus on the trivial…like how someone said something different one day than they did another. All politicians do that. Wake up!

I wonder how many times Obama gave a big “Amen” to Rev. Wright and his racist, hatefilled anti-American speeches?

The problem is not Hillary, she is merely playing the system. Nothing new there, that is what she has always done throughout her career – she Plays the System. It is the system that is at fault here. The Democratic Party didn’t have enough foresight to see the present scenario – which is to say, a tight race!
The system they are currently working with only works when there is a clear frontrunner by this time of year. The Republicans lucked-in and Senator John McCain took a commanding lead and their contest was wrapped up early.
WHAT TO DO? The Democrats have got themselves in a bind and are at serious risk of losing the next election. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are being led to the slaughterhouse by their own people. If this drag’em out, shoot’em up contest continues too much longer the whole exercise will have been in vein. McCain will win by default – no contest to speak of. A blow-out in November.
HERE IS WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE – AND SOON: Listen, if Bill Richardson can make a decision on whom to support why can’t John Edwards do the same? As a matter of interest, why can’t ALL the Superdelegates come forward within the next few weeks and cast their vote of confidence? All it takes is 10 words! “I support Barack Obama (or Clinton) for President of these United States of America.” A few of them might want to elaborate and state their reason. Or perhaps just another sentence, “And I hereby give my vote of confidence to the next President of The United States.” NOTHING SHORT OF THIS WILL DO. It is time for all Superdelegates to stand up on their own two feet and DECLARE! There is no reason to wait.
NOTE: Should some of the Superdelegates choose not to participate and vote NOW, if some choose to delay the process further thereby causing the Democratic Party to further tear itself apart, they shall from this day forward be known as the Lily-livered Lot!
This message is brought to you by the Violent Femmes – so KISS-OFF into the air! Will ya’?
Good Night and thank you for listening.

This is hillarious…all you dems/liberals ten year ago couldn’t get enough of the Clintons…now you can’t bash them enough…which is it???? I think we have a term for this: flip floppers.

These recent days we had another confirmation that Hillary Clinton (just like her husband Bill Clinton) is a big lier. She won’t get away with that spin this time. She has built her campaign around embellishing her empty political resume with “35 years of experience”.
Obama will win this nomination. It is too late for Clinton to undo it.
She is a bad looser. She is too selfish and has a big ego. She is thinking : “how can a CLINTON loose against a Black ?”.
She needs to come back to earth. After this embarrassing defeat, she will means. Her political career will be over, because people will remember the damage that she and her entourage wanted

LOL Bigtime…
Same ol’ same ol’…typical Hillary basher..no shame. Oh wait…most of what you said was about Bill. Make up your mind…focus on one person to bash at a time.
You have no cooth..

Couth…sorry…its the teacher in me…have to get that right :-)

You bet she is going to try to break Obama; use any means necessary to secure super delegates; promise government contracts, appointments and privileges to those who help her; and sell out any US secrets to anyone who can help secure her prize.
If Obama was to pick her as a running mate and they win, he would need to look over his shoulder constantly to ensure he is not knocked out.
The Clintons are not to be trusted–PERIOD.

Docta: I guess Hillary can’t count on your support!

This is what the Clintons do best they destroys Americans hopes and dreams. Except this time I agree with them. No its a sign of the apocalypse. I don’t like either but she is looking more and more better.

The problem with Obama is that most moderate democrats will not and do not agree with the stances he took in the Illinois State Senate. While the left of the democratic party agrees – The Republicans will point out the fact that 1) He voted against giving medical attention to a Fetus/child that survives late term abortion (the US Senate voted 98-0 in favor of medical attention), 2) he voted to raise taxes at least 199 times 3)He voted against the three strike rule against criminals 4) Most moderate democrats look at Iran as a terrorist state. Many, many, moderate democrats will vote for McCain when these facts become known, these are their beliefs. On top of Obama’s other controversial issues, these alone will dome Obama!

Hillary reminds me of Richard Nixon: intelligent, dogged, humorless, selfish and obtuse. I assume those who describe Obama as an affirmative action candidate exceed him in education, eloquence and charm. I should be for Hillary, as a feminist in her age group, but I cannot countenance her approach to governance and campaigning.

Hey quit complaining about your party leaders going against your wishes if they vote for Clinton or (gasp!) Obama. You voted them your party leaders – put as much thought into your local elections as you do to the glamorous presidency and you may have a government that better represents you.

Obama is clearly head and shoulders above Clinton and McCain when it comes to potential to be a great President.
Hillary knows this so her goal is to destroy him. At least McCain will have some class.
The superdelegates, especially Al Gore, need to show some courgae like Richardson and endorse Obama now.

Obama had this primary all but won, the Democrats were not satisfied that his candidacy was tested enough. Ohio and Texas were the big pause. He was up 10% nationally and now they are basically tied. As we know more, he has lost the immanency because Rev Wright is just too hard to swallow for most Americans. If it didn’t matter, we wouldn’t be talking about it. All that built in advantage that Barack had is now gone. Both Barack and Hillary are damaged goods but their is no justification for either of them to leave the race. This is politics. This isn’t for the presidency of the PTA. This is for the leader of the free world. These candidates need to be tested. John McCain is not a great candidate but he can win this election. Millions still need to vote. Let them have their say just like you had yours. Wishing this happened or that happened is just that, wishing. Let’s not fool ourselves. They both want to win and that is a huge understatement. They are both shrewd politicians and they both get caught in lies. Deal with it. There are no angels in this race. This is a twelve round heavyweight brawl. No ones gonna win with a tko. I think Bill Richardson’s endorsement really divided this party more than anything else. He should have waited because now, it went from a political fight to a personal one. This is going to be a presidential race where nuclear options are on the table. You can thank the DNC for setting the tone with Michigan and Florida.

Obama has lied so much he believes his own lies. He attended a church for 20 years and didn’t know the pastor was a racist and a hater of the white people? Give me a break. Obama doesn’t like the white people that much he tolerates them to get the votes and they are sucker enough to vote for him. He gives a good copied pep talk and they believe him. What is the matter with the white people today. The black people vote for Obama not Hillary and the white people should vote for their own. I believe she will win in Pennsylvania, possibly North Carolina and Puerto Rico. If so, her total delegates will go up and she is winning the superdelegates. Anyone that goes to a racial church has to be racial themselves.

I wonder which woman will win?

As an Immigrant who loved and cherished every single moment of what this country has to offer, as someone who considers and calls this country home, I am very ashamed and disheartened by all the negative and ill-conceived opinions. Do you know the fact our brothers and sisters are dying fighting wars that our politicians crafted and fabricated. Do you know as many as 100 immigrants got their US citizenship after they died fighting for this country? What is wrong with you all? Try to see outside the box, what ever you do and say in this country directly and indirectly affects the world.
Let us try to civilize ourselves as what it should be in the 21st century.

At some point in the hopefully not-too-distant future, some important Democratic figure needs to step up and create a McCarthy-like moment, which shows both Clinton and, to an extent, Obama how foolish they’re being and how disgusting that this campaign has become. Honestly, the Democrats had the inside track to the presidency this time around because of all of the displeasure with Bush. But most Americans are at this point, it’s safe to say, sick of Clinton and Obama. I am so sick of the back and forth stupid BS that McCain looks way more palatable right now than either of the two nitwits.
Clinton / Obama, for the sake of the U.S., get back to the tweakin’ issues. Tell us where you stand on the real issues. Quit nitpicking about stuff that doesn’t matter. Get back to the issues or get out and let some Democrat take over who actually wants to discuss the real issues.
Clinton, stop embellishing your largely ceremonial role as First Lady. You didn’t negotiate anything! You’ve been a Senator for two terms now. Talk about that experience and what you’re going to bring to the table. Quit telling me how bad Obama is. It just makes you look stupid.
Obama, quit with all the fancy talk and empty words. Discuss real frickin’ plans.
Both of you, discuss real stuff or get out!

I’ve just got to add this. Anderson Cooper -weighing in on Clinton’s comments about Obama’s problem with Rev. Wright – has to add that in her later remarks she was referring to notes. How about Obama’s use of the teleprompter during his so-called landmark speech on race. Anderson, your bias is showing!!!
She was asked in a press conference about this – probably the 100th time – maybe she got tired of giving a stupid, non-responsive answer, and finally told people the equivalent of the EMPEROR HAS NO CLOTHES! (“he wouldn’t be my pastor”).
Finally, AC360 has two Obama apologists vs. one Clinton supporter. So much for fairness. Goodnight Anderson and CNN. You’ve crossed the line too many times. I hope other Clinton supporters join me.

The Democrats pick people they like, not those who can win in November against the Republicans. Kerry, Dukakis, Mondale, and Gore
===================================
VERY true. It would be absolutely crazy to nominate Obama. It’s going to be a McCain landslide. The moveon.org morons will be wringing their hands when President McCain vetoes yet another troop withdrawal plan.

While it does seem that Obama may win this in the end, the Democratic leadership looks deperate to get Clinton to drop out before the Pennsylvania primary. That is because there is a good chance he will lose that primary by 10% to 20%. That will be some heavy duty baggage to carry into the general election. But they must be fair to the voters whose primaries have not taken place yet. They already look bad refusing the votes of Fl and MI. If they push her out prematurely without allowing voters to have their say they will alienate even more voters.

All those CLINTON FANS are closet racist white trash Americans, who would rather be Republican voters but can’t afford to as Republicans only care for the Rich & wealthy.
Enough with your “Ferraro” type prejudice and start getting use to the Mathematical FACT that OBAMA WILL BE THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE !!

The media and the DNC are turning on Hillary. The end is near.

I wonder what Machiavellian concept would be in this matter would be…

i can’t understand why so many people believe O? for his change? but do u think he really would bring any changes except the word CHANGE?? to me, he is just another OLD politician. wear marks, play tricks and hope to take a bet to be president. i cant see how much he loves this country and how much he did for this country!

The media is all over this Bosnia sniper liar thing plus the comment from the unnamed DNC official that Hillary is employing a “Tonya Hardiing” strategy now to “kneecap” Obama. Yikes! Things really seem to be coming to a head. Something is going to have to give. Meanwhile Barack is chilling at the beach. Nice!

Obama has the second most liberal voting record in the Senate for the one term that he has served. We all know that before his short stint in politics he was more than likely hosting block parties and spouting Rev. Wright’s afro-centrist hate speech at anyone that would listen. In my mind I would rather have anybody than this smooth operating psuedo-extremist running our great country.
God Bless America,

Hillary is a fighter, not a whiner like Obama. I am so tired of Obama calling the race card and crying about everything that makes him look bad. Hillary will win, she is proven and the republicans are worried.

Right now Hillary is kind of like a cancer on the Democratic party that needs to be cut off before any further damage ensues.

The way in which Hillary Clinton told her story of the arrival in Bosnia reminded me of pathological liars I have known. I doubt that she is, but don’t be completely surprised if other statements she has made turn out to be mendacious. Let the digging begin.

Obama does not lie like Hillary.

Obama has already done enough to himself. My turning against him had nothing to do with anything Hillary has said, it’s watching him lie, distort, and flip flop. It’s also because of his allegiance to his anti-white, anti-American church for 20 years. I don’t believe a word the man says.

It’s scary to think that the Clintonistas spewing so much bile on this board (FAR more than anything in the Obama camp, their insistent, smug, shameless and contemptuous claims to the contrary notwithstanding) are Democrats. Who needs Republicans when you’ve got ruthless, vicious troops like these? The irony is that so many of the comments I’ve read here prove that Tapper’s source is right about the Tonya Harding Option. At least own up to what you are doing, folks. Sheesh.
For all your trash talk, Obama is still standing, and is still the likely nominee. And he has more leadership ability in his little finger than HRC has in her entire corrupt body.

Man, judging from many of these post the Democrats were even bigger racists than I thought! Calling Senator Obama a mulatto, the hate towards Rev Wright just because of his skin color – jeeesh!

I don’t think there is any way that America will pull the lever for Osama, sorry I mean Obama, on that fateful November day. McCain presents an almost grand-father image that comforts people, while Obama has never shown that he can lead this great country. He will not even put his hand over his heart during the Pledge of Alligence, and I would like to put him in a room of men that fought and gave their every effort for this country and see if he could talk his way out of that one.

All this little nit-picking stuff is meaningless in the general.
56% of voters say they won’t vote for Obama in the general election?
40% of whites?
Sorry, but he can’t win.
The democratic primary is different from the general where the majority of voters are not favorable to Obama.
The probability of Obama withstanding attacks about his pastor, experience, in other words, risk are lower than Clintons – even with Bosnia, Taxes, Documents, etc.

Obama is way up in the NC polls. If Hillary wins Pennsylvania by 20 points, she will only gain 8 delegates! Big deal, this will be virtually offset by the great state of NC. Barack’s coming back from his vacation with his lovely wife and children, and he will be fired up and ready to go. Look for upcoming inspirational speeches on the economy and the war. Hillary looked dirt dog tired and beat up today. I felt sorry for her. but she needs to stop embellishing and exaggerating her credentials. There is a reason that the majority of Americans feel she is untrustworthy. It is practically impossible for her to win the nomination without pulling a Tonya Harding assault. Let us remember poor Vince Foster rolled up in a carpet. Democrats are afraid of the Clintons for a reason. Read Carl Bernstein’s book! This is why more superdelegates have not stuck their necks out yet to support Obama. They won’t be afraid to come out as a group against her, when it counts.

David Brooks points out in his Tuesday’s (3-25-08) column in The New York Times “Obama lawyers successfully prevented re-votes in Florida and Michigan.” This disfranchising millions of Democratic voters in those states, reminds me of The Supreme Court Handing over Florida vote to George Bush. Is this the new era of politics that Sen. Obama is talking about, or is it politics as usual, circa Florida 2000? More and more Obama campaign reminds me of those infamous Republican dirty tricks that brought us eight years of George Bush, 9/11, Iraq and Afghanitan wars and many other other disasters, and all of that of course with the help of Washington media establishment. The more Sen. Obama strains to speak of his new era of politics in America and CHANGE, less and less of it seemed real. Sen. Obama should practice what he preaches! Obviously, Sen. Obama is a liar and a hypocrite!

Anger management, anyone? I’m with TKD: Hillary has torpedoed her Majority Leader options. Obama and those of us who support him may have underestimated the intelligence of the American public. Hillary is banking on the Tonya Harding double wide vote, and will likely get it. Sinbad/Charles Barkley is the real 08 ticket. Hillary supporters are off the charts with their condescending venom, and I am finding it difficult to remain the only one in America who will vote for the Democratic nominee. God Bless America. Go dem America

Charleschaplin, you read one article and think you know what’s going on. Do you Hillary supporters have any brains and I don’t say that to be mean. But you cannot read 1 article and go with it. Educate yourself in politics, read everything and then make a judgement. I won’t explain myself again about the issue with fl and mi because you Hill supporters don’t want to listen. You just want to cry foul and point fingers

Keep on bickering while Mccain is conquering territory after territory! Can we put aside all this bickering about the candidates and get down to the real issues that concern us true Americans? I know Clinton and Mccain are two good old politicians playing the same good old song. That is the only reason why I am going for Obama all the way to November 08!!

“She will have to “break his back,” the official said. She will have to destroy Obama, make Obama completely unacceptable.”
Obama was already unacceptable -
After the Pastor Wright Revelation, 56% of voters say they won’t vote for Obama, 40% of whites.
This artical is telling…it’s part of the set-up the media developing to try and blame Clinton for Obama’s shortcomings.
Obama hurt himself – he did over twenty years. Good Judgement?

I have to place most of the blame of the on-going saga in the Democratic at the foot of the Super delegates. The fact of the matter is, the voters have spoken and although neither candidate can receive the required number of delegates to win the nomination. It’s full time for the super delegates to come out and throw their weight behind Obama who has the lead in elected delegates, popular votes and number of states won, thus preventing the destruction of the party. From all indications, both campaigns (Hilary/Obama) will continue the mud throwing to the extent that supporters of either side will not want to support the other at the appropriate time – November 08 and thereby provide McCain with a win. The damage to both candidates will be irreparable. The bottom-line is Obama has attracted so many first time voters and independent voters to the Democratic Party that will make him more electable than Hilary. Furthermore, the most of States won by Hilary are states that traditionally voted democratic. It does not take a Clinton to win them. The sooner the super delegates act the better position the Democratic Party will have in the November 08 elections.

Her true colors are now showing.

Hey Marianne, you’re in need of an update. New major poll from NC as of 03-24 from http://www.publicpolicy polling (PPP) show Obama has surged in NC to a 55 to 34 lead (up by 21). Wake up Marianne, NC and the rest of America outside Pennsylvania does not like how Hillary is handling herself, and they don’t appreciate her constant Tonya Harding style attacks on Obama.

If Hillary manages to arm-twist her way to the nomination, she will do the greatest damage to the democratic party since the civil war.
-jcr

Whatever it takes to save the country from an Obama catastrophic Presidency.

You know what we Republican really find delicious? Guess who came up with the idea at the DNC to expell Michigan and Florida votes?
Give up? It was none other than Harold Ickes, now Hillary’s campaign manager! Priceless!

Doesn’t the media ever get ashamed of their headlines.
Anyone who beats Obama is good for America.

Boy I am glad that Hillary took the blame for her current misrepresentation of the truth. Although in the back of her mind I am sure she thinks this another “right-wing conspiracy” checking the facts. The truth is she is an school politician trying to do what ever she can to get elcted this year, even if it means distorting the truth. If she does not get the nomination this year, then she wants to make sure McCain wins, then in four years she can unseed him. She does not care about the Democratic party, she only cares about herself. By the way did anyone catch the full quote today on Reverend Wright, she said you can not choose your relatives. Sure you can Hill, especially if you divorce them (i.e. Bill).

I look at it this way… if he can’t handle what Hillary Clinton throws at him then what’s he going to do in November when the GOP get a chance at him. I’m so sick of the crying and belly aching from the Obama supporters media included… this is a CONTEST it does require to have all 50 States heard so let it play out…. OH I FORGOT, OBAMA is playing the 48 State strategy…LOL The bottom line is neither candidate is going to get enough delegates to get the nomination so all is fair in love and politics here! I remember 1984 when this same thing happened and Mondale (in Obamas current position) was wisked into the nomination… you see how that turned out!
Regardless of this primary I think Obama people should be thinking to November. People who are solid Democrats like me who are voting for John McCain if Obama is my other choice. I would bet to say that there are at least 25% of Democrats who feel as strongly as I do about it. Losing even one State and the electorial college math goes right down the toilet for him. This not to mention the State of Florida which will go GOP because he chose to neglect any resolution to having the voters votes count there. My mother told me that she and a lot of her other solidly Democratic friends in S. FL that are voting for McCain this fall if Obama is on the ticket. I’m sure Obama doesn’t care though because epiphany will hit everyone and they will realize he is their savior! I wonder when epiphany is going to hit him? LOL

BO has been running a campaign of hope and change while his supporters have been out knee-capping those who favor Hillary. This has been going on for 16 months and it has gotten so bad that many, many Hillary supporters, tried and true Dems, will vote for McCain if BO is the nominee. Tell that to your DNC official — it doesn’t seem that he/she has a clue as to what is really happening in the Dem party.

Hey, it goes like this. If there are two people on top of a fifty story building and there is another fifty story building twenty feet away. The contest is to see who can jump to the other building safely. One of the contestants tries really hard. Takes a running start, has springs on his shoes to help. Jumps really far touches the other side with his finger tips and falls to the ground below. The other tries equally as hard but doesn’t make the distance to the other side. Question is, who at the bottom is more dead. The first or the second? Hillary and Obama are both “dead” when it comes to the delegate count. NEITHER one will make the distance. So the delegate count isn’t the actual contest. Making the case to the super delegates is. They will have to decide who is more electable, and has a better chance of winning the general election. Giving it to Obama because he has won “more delegates” from mostly insignificant states won’t be a good strategy. Who is able to win the big electoral states is the only “ruthless” strategy that will bring about a win in the general election. If anyone should concede it’s Obama. He has absolutely NO chance of winning Ohio, Pennsylvania, Florida, California and the other states Hillary has already proven SHE can win. “As Ohio goes, so goes the nation” and they don’t like Obama in Ohio. That’s a fact. Since the Wright scandal, you can bet they like him even less. This election process is going to HAVE to become a strategy or the Dems are dead at the bottom. Hillary understands the process much better than Obama. That’s why she knows she’ll get the nomination. After all, she does have more experience. John McCain would love to have Obama as the nominee. If people think Hillary is ruthless, they’ll learn what ruthless really is if Obama goes up against McCain. At the end of that day, when Obama looses, he’ll not only loose the presidency, but any future hopes of running for the highest office in the land. He’ll be much like Ted Kennedy was and is. Ted Kennedy does a lot of good things in the senate, but no one will forget Mary Jo Kopechne, ever. When McCain is through with Obama we’ll know more than we EVER wanted to know about him. It won’t be pretty. John McCain will be honorable but he will fiercly defend this country against it falling into the hands of the likes of Obama. Hillary’s no villan, it’s the democratic party that set this system up. Blame Howard Dean.

SUPERB CANDIDATE??
What the crap.
What makes her the right choice to lead this country? The lies, the scandals? The refusal to release information? How about switching states carpetbagging for office, choosing New York instead of Arkansas or Illinois?
There are two good candidates this time around–McCain and Obama. Both have shown a willingness to admit errors, both have stuck to unpopular positions, and both represent change away from the Bush/Clinton 16 years of dynasty and bickering.
if Clinton is a superb candidate, the Royals and Pirates will be in the World Series.

People who vote for Republicans are very angry right now. They feel somewhat responsible for our brothers and sisters dying in Iraq, and they should, but that does not mean that because you voted for a warmonger in the last few elections that you have to continue to do so.
Republicans:
Stop feeling so bad and stop voting for GOP’er just because you keep hearing the word “team” associated with them. This is not Football, your votes can help decide whether our brothers and sisters fight and die for causes that all Americans believe in and support.
Do not let your guilt get in the way of your intelligence!
By the way, where are the centrist Republicans? Why does the GOP have to have a big rubber stamp as a constituency?
I would rather have a “inexperienced” Democrat wasting a billion on helping the poor or disabled or uneducated, than have a neo-con Republican blow a billion on killing tens of thousands of innocent Iraqi and thousands of US service men and women.
In the last 8 years or so Republicans have shown me that they will do anything and everything in their power to keep you from retaining an opinion based on the facts that their incompetence is comprised of.

This is so correct. Clintons will do whatever they can to beat Obama…..
McCain’s camp loves this story…..

Texas Lil, you’re dead wrong. Obama easily wins NY and California in the national election. These states are reliably democratic every election cycle. To think otherwise is ignorant. This is the folly of Clinton’s flawed big state strategy. Blue states like these will always be blue. Please…

The slow agonizing murder-suicide of the Democrats this November
Go BIG MAC

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS DOOMED!
OBAMA’S SUPPORTERS WON’T VOTE FOR HILLARY.
HILLARY’S SUPPORTERS SAY “HELL NO” TO OBAMA.
WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE THE PARTY?

I am sick and tired of Senator Clinton being blamed for the breakup of the Democratic Party. You guys just don’t get it.

Obama will not win the Presidency.

Bogus stories like this are an attack on all women. The backlash will be even GREATER support for Hillary Clinton. Thank you for your seedy journalism. With your backhanded help, I know she can win! CLINTON FOR THE WIN!

This is just a case of projection on the part of your anonymous official. The Democratic establishment (Dean, Pelosi) is so terrified that their Annointed one will screw up again before the convention that they are exerting tremendous pressure on Hillary to quit instead. That includes throwing everything including the kitchen sink at her in terms of maligning her and her campaign.

I thought everyone knew that was her strategy. Destroy Obama, destroy the party – If I don’t get it, neither will you. She has gone way passed acceptable campaigning, especially a contest for the nomination of your party. The woman has no morals – just her overwhelming sense of entitlement to the presidency. I hope the party steps in soon to end this show as Bill Richardson has called for, before it’s too late for democrats

We’ll have to agree to disagree rco. California has gone Republican, Ohio flip flops, once upon a time Texas was solidly Democratic, no more. The south was once solidly Democratic. But now in general is Republican. Things change if they have the right motivation. The recent revelations about Obama, for most they’re, well. “obaminations”. Remember the Dixie Chicks? Same thing. Even though I personally don’t agree with what happened to them, they had every right to say what they said. However Obama’s actions and associations are anti-American, not just anti-president.

Consider this: SHE IS *NOT* BILL CLINTON. She’s riding on HIS coattails. If Bill had never been president, nobody would have cared about her.

Blaming Hillary for the downfall of the Democratic Party is like blaming Eve for the downfall of mankind. LOL!

Great analogy — hope this gets some widespread coverage. It seems like something Hillary’s supporters might understand.
Another thought — what does Hillary’s relentless approach show about her JUDGMENT? Do we really want a president who in the face of all odds just continues down the path of their choice relentlessly without listening to anyone (sounds familiar but not something we want to repeat).

If she so call “break is back” and destroy Obama posibility of been president, she must start looking for a new Job, because she will never again be elected senator from New York. she must think because we are washing her.

Obama destroys Obama. Obama’s problem will follow Obama like his shadow.
Rezko, Ayers, Wright, McPeak, Odinga, these issues will not magically disappear if Hillary dropped out.
DNC should be thankful that they have a strong candidate left in the race when Obama problem is beginning to be unearthed by right wing media.

One cannot “break the back” of a spineless creature!
Equivalent to breaking a snake”s “back”!
Ain’t no way!

MikeinTexas: Thanks, you know what, they really don’t get it, you’re right!The sad thing is, does the DNC realize how many loyal Democrats, the core of the party, that they’re going to lose because of this nomination process? How many in Florida and Michigan? How many of the older people and minorities who feel disenfranchised because of the caucus process? I feel no loyalty whatsoever to a party that has shown so little loyalty to its members, and I know I am only one of the millions who feel this way.

It’s a pity that most Americans are not critical thinks. They don’t know what is good for them, sorry to say this. The White house is not the birth-right for HRC, and she uses all negative ads to lie to Americans that cannot see the hand writing on the wall for change. She is a recycle politician who has nothing to offer to Americans than her pride. This is not do or die affair but for the sake of Americans – in Iraq, and at home. Obama cannot be judged by his pastor’s wrong words. With God on Obama’s side, miracle is sure to happen. Long live the first black president.

Men,
It is the press who has been trying to make Clinton unelectable from the very beginning. On the other hand, Obama IS unelectable from the very beginning.
In any case, this comment and comparison by you , Mr Tapper, is really the worst I heard in this campaign. Thhis is my last look to your comments. You are terribly biased!
Hello and Bye, bye, bye

It’s a pity that most Americans are not critical thinks. They don’t know what is good for them, sorry to say this.

The Tonya Harding analogy “works” because their is some accuracy to it.
I just cant believe there are a significant number of people out there who still see this women as president-worthy.
I guess people are too busy to follow news clips and statements that come out of her mouth. She has given countless examples of being inconsistent in her thinking and exspressions; she has been clearly disingenuous; she doesnt even try very hard to seem consistent.
Maybe Bill and the Clinton camp are operating on the basis of research that supports a “do and say anything” to win approach–since such a large portion of the population are either not paying attention or not discerning enough to recognize inconsistencies and deceptiveness.
But. If the masses can elect George W. Bush twice, I guess anythings possible; however depressing.
I’m still holding out hope that the American people or the current “fence-walking” superdelegates will put an end to the Democratic race soon. Otherwise its going to be Bush Light with John McCain.

revisited08 — So what is it like to be on the outside?

Who was this ‘anonymous’ source? Another Obama campaign official? Putting something like this out there sounds just like some dirty trick the Obama thugs would manufacture.
Hillary has every right to stay in this campaign. It is Obama who will do anything to get the nomination. He has proved that over and over.

Hillary Clinton needs to be very careful about using the “Tonia Harding” option. That plan could backfire. I think there are things in Hillary’s past that she wouldn’t want the world to know about and someone wouldn’t have to dig very deep in her files or do much investigating to find them.

I’m just amazed at Clinton supporters. Obama has ran an extremely positive campaign. Think about how negatively he could have gone considering all of the dirt the Clinton’s have in their past. He hasn’t done that. He has, in fact, tried to run an extremely positive campaign and has only fired back when he’s been pushed into a corner by the disgustingly negative Clinton campaign.
How can Clinton supporters be so negative towards Obama? It’s really disturbing to me. Don’t Clinton supporters realize that McCain represents 4 more years of George W. Bush? Don’t they realize that the Jeremiah Wright “issue” is the “swiftboating” of Barack Obama and a completely ridiculous non-issue? I mean seriously… WAKE UP! This is it!
Obama played fair and he has WON. Get over it! This is far more important than petty political bickering. The future of this country and the world is at stake. We cannot afford 4 more years of neocon policy.
Barack Obama 2008!

I’m so proud of Obama! He’s going to be the first black American to lose a presidential election! This is so exciting!

I don’t think either candidate has a chance because Hillary is going to have Bill trip Obama up with a stick so he can only get as high as Senator (which is the equivalent of a silver) and she’ll be spending the next 8 years in prison for denying but later being accused of being responsible for planning and scheming to hit Obama in the knees. And Bill or Hillary’s secret service man will also spend a year in prison for knowingly being an accomplice. And Obama will be seen occasionally on talk shows especially on each anniversary (in 5 year increments) of the whack to the knees. Once Hillary is out of prison she’ll take up dancing so she can compete on dancing with the stars where she’ll be the next to the oldest competitor, Jerry Springer being the oldest. We’ll see her slide gracefully across the dancefloor like an Olympic skater and swing her arms back and forth like a professional boxer. Obama will be seen occasionally on the cover of the “NE” a wonderfully truthful and inspiring publication that never distorts the facts, with a 10 lb. weight gain and pot belly that he didn’t have in yesterdays picture, blaming it on an old knee injury and standing on the beach next to his great uncle Rev. J. Wright who is in shorts and a t-shirt emblazoned with Proud to be an American and his wife Michelle who is wearing a t-shirt stating Proud to be an American for the first time.

What guys (or girls) like our anonymous friend don’t seem to get is that Obama is making himself unacceptable. We don’t know who he is, and the more we find out, the worse it gets. The Democratic primary electorate – well, about half of it anyway – may forgive his 20-year association with the likes of Rev. Wright, but the general electorate will not.

To mimi5, —————- I do not work for Obama. Nice try though. I wish I was getting paid because I could sure use the money. I have never met him nor anyone from his campaign.
But it wasn’t Obama who divided the Party. Obama DID NOT USE HIS RACE. How about you go back and show me when he did this? He gave a speech about race because he understood that the Wright contraversy had evrything to do with race. The majority of white Americans simply don’t understand the Black community. The majority of White Americans would rather forget the sins of America’s past with regards to slavery and segregation and ignore the racial problems that divide this country. Racial issues is never a comfortable topic but Obama decided to treat America like adults and discuss the problem, rather than like children and ignore it.
This election SHOULD NOT be about any of that stuff. It should be about issues. If you believe Hillary is the best candidate, thats fine. But lets stop smearing one another. We are all after the same THINGS!!!

To OnlyHillary,——— Can you please tell me what is so important about Hillary that you’d rather a republican with completely different ideas than Hillary and Obama, take the White House? That means that you are not a true democrat. That begs the question why are you supporting Her? Is it because she is a woman, is it because you can’t stand the thought of a black man in the White House? Why would you rather have another for years of makin our country worse than it is rather than a democrat no matter who he or she is?

To Gobacktoillinois,———— Please tell me how Obama blocked the Michigan vote? From what I read and understood, the MI legislature decided not to vote on it. None of the states want to hold a do-over. It is not Obama’s fault that they broke the rules. It is NOT Obama’s fault that they did not want to revote.
Please explain this.

i don’t remember anyone telling obama to take his name off of the michigan ballot

To Kikz,—————— we are not interested in what the GOP thinks of Obama go crawl back into bed wit Rush and let intelligent people debate. I will vote for Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton, or Mickey Mouse 20 times before any GOP candidate!!!!

i intend to support the Democratic nominee, regardless of who it is…..but i supported john kerry with all my might and all my words…..in the end, he was unable to survive the swift boat vets, and i sincerely fear that obama’s campaign will meet the same end……my child deserves the best shot for a better future, and I know in my heart of hearts that Senator Clinton is that best shot

i have a compromise solution for most obama supporters: don’t attempt to tear down Senator Clinton, and I won’t publicly embarrass you

Its hard to imagine Ms. Clinton could play any dirtier than she already has. She is already playing the Tonya Harding option.
The superdelegates need to get off the fence and pick a Democratic candidate before both are destroyed. Apparently some superdelegates are thinking that they will be able to make the most infromed decision if they wait until the convention. This is not a responsible way of thinking about this. If we wait that long, John McCain will be unbeatable due to a severely damaged Democratic Nominee (no matter who it is).
Please. Please. Please Superdelegates. Follow Bill Richardson’s lead and take a stance before it is too late for our party.

To Chris, ————— First of all, you can say anything you want. You are nit embarrasing me. I am not that immature as to become insulted by what someone online, who does not know me says about anything.
Second of all, I agree with you. Let’s stop tearing down one another and have civilized discussions. I am voting for Hillary, should she get the nomination. I definately am voting for Obama as well should he wins. Any democrat befor another GOP clown

without a doubt, they will thank you

actually, i COMPLETELY agree with you

i am a multi-tasker…I am capable of engaging someone like you in a reasonable and constructive discussion regarding the issues and the problems we are experiencing during this unique election year while simultaneously humiliating those whose idea of “supporting” obama is to act like an anti-American neo-conservative and attack Senator Clinton personally and politically……it didn’t work for THEM for 14 years; what makes them think it will work NOW?

BTW, I guess in this scenario, Obama would be Nancy Kerrigan, clutching his knee and whining, “Why me, why meeee?!”
Heh.
*****A

I share a unique connection with Sen. Obama. My father is African (Nigerian) and my mother is an Anglo-American. I too have a non-traditional name. I can’t understand how people can make Mr. Obama out to be racist. Isn’t he technically just as white as he is black? I only consider myself black because society has attached that label to me as they have done to Mr. Obama. This is no longer the 5o’s, this is o8, I think having a bi-racial president wouldn’t hurt this country one bit. I’ve heard family members’ white and black make anti-American statements, mostly out of frustration. I too have questioned our leadership; it’s our right as an American to do so. At the beginning of this primary, I, like a number of my “African-American” friends, supported Hillary; however through the process we’ve noticed that she is very similar to our current president (i.e. entitlement, deceit, flip-floppiness, delusions of grandeur, divisiveness, ect…..) Some Hillary supporters say she is a fighter, I disagree, she seems like she’s a spoiled child that hasn’t gotten her way so she wants to spoil the(democratic) party(pun intended). She agreed that FL and MI shouldn’t hold their primaries early and their votes wouldn’t count. Now that she is no longer the front-runner she decides to cry foul. I question her leadership, her character and her agenda. Change is needed in Washington, not only for America’s sake, but the world as a whole. America used to be a symbol of Freedom and Equality, but this whole process is just another example that we are headed in the wrong direction, and Mr. McCain will be our next president.

To All Democratic Voters:
Even as an Obama supporter, I can certainly understand the anger you must be feeling right now. I know because I have been severely disappointed in the past too. Let me start with Clinton. I adore Senator Clinton and her husband. I believe these two are wonderful people that care deeply for America’s future. I had been hoping ever since 2004 that she would run for President and win because I believe she would make an excellent President. I was excited when she announced her candidacy. I thought FINALLY! America will be back on track.
I first heard Obama speak at the 2004 democratic national convention in Boston, Massachusetts. He hadn’t won his US Senate seat yet, as he was still competing against his republican opponent. His speech was the best at the convention. I knew then that he would be President of the United States one day. So, when I heard that he was running for President, I thought it was a mistake because it was too soon for him. But after observing his campaign, listening to his message, and getting to know him, I found myself facing a very hard decision. I decided to support Obama because of what he stood for and the general way he ran his campaign.
You know, when I think about it, this nomination process should be like choosing between caramel and fudge!!! Both equally delicious, but which one? Instead, the process has destroyed and split the party. Looking at the most recent polls, this fight could very well cost the party the election. An election which should have easily been won!!! I admit that in my anger with Hillary Supporters, I have posted some angry things about Clinton, but I am trying to move past that. I urge all of Hillary’s supporters and Obama’s supporters to support whomever the nominee is. I know that there has been some very harsh words on both sides. But I now believe that we can have an intelligent debate without the divisive elements that has been injected into this campaign season. The Ferraro and Rev. Wright controversy was about race. Racial issues do run deep in this country as the exit polls have shown, but this election should be about healing and uniting America, not about Gender or Race or what some advisor or Pastor said.
With that being said, I think we should all take a step back, and breathe. We should look at the situation as it stands and really consider what is best for us as democrats. The only way Hillary can catch up in the delegate count is if she seriously break Obama down. That would do nothing but fuel the divisiveness and cause a civil war within the party, effectively handing the country over to McCain and denying ourselves the glorious future that lie ahead with a democrat in office. It is time to do what is best for the party and support the person with the most states won, more popular votes and more delegates won. That person is Senator Barack Obama. Senator Hillary Clinton has run an extraordinary campaign. I applaud her for her strength, her message, and her persistence on the issues that matter to her the most. But, now, it is time for her to step aside and let the general election begin. Her continued fight is doing nothing but continuing to hurt the party. Obama has a difficult task ahead at defeating McCain. He will need our support. I urge all Obama supporters and Hillary supporters to stop attacking one another and save the energy for the true enemy: The GOP.

Chris, ———————– I’m not so sure about that. Hillary has been attacking Obama left and right since he won Iowa, and he has done nothing but keep winning. The attacks are now just starting to affect Obama — and that’s only because he wasn’t really hitting back. Clinton has taken a beating too, by the media and the GOP. Now, what we have are two candidates that may get destroyed in the general because they did not have the wisdom to drop out. My sense is that nce it became clear to Clinton that she could not possibly catch uo in the delegate count, she should have done what John Edwards did in 2004, what Bill Bradley did in 2000 and drop out and endorse the winner. Not carry on with this bitter fight.

Anonymous source: If your are going to make an outlandish statement you should at least have the courage to sign your name to it. THIS is gutter politics to me, unknown people with tabloid statements. Sen Clinton is a strong, confident, and well respected representative of New York (and was a fabulous First Lady as well). A woman who has worked her entire life to make things in our country and world better. The sleazy and taudry slures show how backwards we are regarding respect for women with talent and knowledge. If anyone suggests Sen Obama is less capable because of his heritage they are immediately slapped back, but you can impugn a woman forever. Nice.

Give it up. Hillary just became unelectable with this Bosnia stuff. If she were to be the nominee, the McCain campaign would DESTROY her …. with one, simple TV ad. Clips of soldiers dying in Vietnam (plus McCain on the stretcher), then fade to Hillary describing the “sniper fire”, SMILING THE WHOLE TIME SHE’S SAYING IT. Sorry people…. she’s done.

A little truth and balance from the media wouldn’t hurt. Obama lied about his pastor (“I never heard him make controversial statements”- 3 days later-”yes, of course I heard him say things that were controversial”) Obama lied about Rzeko-first it was $22k and eventually became I spoke to him sometimes several times a day and he contributed at leaast $250k to my campaigns. Obama lied about passing a bill to make nuclear companies alert the public when there is a leak- Turns out the Excelon company in Illinois contributed hundreds of thousands of $$$ to his campaign and he changed the wording in the bill- It didn’t pass but he still lied and said it did in Iowa and NH. Obama lied about a senior campaign advisor telling the Canadian government to ignore his campaign rhetoric-he didn’t really mean what he said-Turns out there is a memo. Obama lied about getting us out of Iraq within 16 months- His senior foreign advisor Samantha Powers said in an on air interview that it was only campaign rhetoric-best case scenario-and best case never works in Iraq. I’m sure there are more instances but the press has hoodwinked and bamboozled us. They also would have us believe the Clinton’s started the racist tone of this election- Unfortunately the race baiting began when Michelle told he people of Iowa that the “black folk of this country will wake up if they voted for her husband.” In Octbober Obama had a family and values tour using the homophobic gospel singer McClurkin to go to exclusively black churches in S. C. Then of course there is the 4 page memo distributed by the Obama staff- The list is long- WAKE UP AMERICA-OKAY DOKEY
I’m not against Obama because he is black. I do agree with Ms. Ferraro, he wouldn’t be in this position if he was white. I’m against him because he has no experience whatsoever. He spent his short time in the Senate campaigning. He has no record, no accomplishments, and dodged votes way too many times. I don’t like the way he stalled and nit-picked in order to squash a revote in Florida or Michigan. He did his best to disfranchise those voters who overwhelmingly voted for Hillary. You can’t believe what he says. He lied about Hillary’s Health Care Plan. He lied about his stance on Iraq, and his plans for Iraq. He’s telling us one thing and telling Canada don’t take it seriously, it’s just rhetoric. I don’t like his pastor and his hateful, racist diatribes. But, I also don’t like the way Obama lied, again. First he didn’t hear the sermons, then he did. And, I don’t like his petty actions. Putting out a photo of President Bill Clinton shaking hands with the pastor at a White House Prayer Breakfast was petty and stupid. Obama is one who spent 20 years listening to his diatribes. Obama has simply lied, or misled the voters too many times. I don’t trust him, and I feel he has poor judgement because of his closest friends and the deals he’s had with them, like Rezko and the Iraqi billionaire who gave him millions. He gives great sermons, but I’m not voting for a preacher, I’m voting for the President of the United States, Sen. Hillary Clinton. She is a uniter who has accomplished a great deal working with both sides of the aisle here and around the world. She has the experience, knowledge, maturity, and the will to bring us Peace and Prosperity again.

To JRG,—————— WHY OH WHY DO you say such things? As an Obama supporter I WILL VOTE for Hillary if she is the nominee. I will NOT vote for any republican—-Even if it is McCain….Sorry. You should do the same. Let’s stop smearing fellow democrats. We all want the same things for our country!!!!

Doug,———————————–I can respect that. You are entitled to your opinion as well. Clinton did not rub me the wrong way. In fact, she looks very presidential as do Obama, when she’s not shooting off at the mouth and blowing her gaskets. I like Clinton because she stands up for what she believes in (most of the time). But, I chose to support Obama because he was more in tune for what America was searching for and had the smarts to see it. That is what makes a great President. One who has learned from History and one who is connected with the people that he represents. I will of course vote for Hillary if she is the nominee, because she is a good person, but I like Obama better. *shrug*

JRG,———————– I agree that Obama is the better candidate, but even Clinton is better than McCain. Please don’t let this bitter fight take your eye off the bigger prize, which is a democrat in the WH. Certainly you can agree that Obama and Clinton have the same goals. Don’t be bitter about this… Please. I will vote for Hillary or Obama, whomever wins. I hope its Obama, but I’ll settle for Clinton.

Hillary Clinton doesn’t need to “make” Obama unacceptable – he’s already done that himself.
I really want to vote Democratic this November, but if Obama wins the nomination, I’m voting for John McCain.

He has won the nomination to what? To be the next Democratic Presidential candidate to lose the General Election? Trust me, that is EXACTLY what is going to happen. The Republican party is going to ‘mop the floor’ with this guy.
Without strong support from California, NY, Florida, Pennsylvania, and Michigan, he hasn’t a prayer. And, will he lose those states – Of course. He already lost them in the primary!
If he wins the nomination and doesn’t lose the GE, I will come back here and eat crow. Otherwise, I will definitely be back to gloat.

Robert Candella———————–, I don’t care where you work. You said that you would burn down the White House if Obama wins the Presidential election. That is not only unpatriotic, its an act of treason (especially if you work for the Government) and an act of Terrorism.
I would have an honest debate but I refuse to debate the merits of the candidates with someone who does not care to listen and understand issues from all sides of the aisle.

Kerry, ————————– English is obviously not your primary language. I say this because I am giving you the benefit of the doubt that you are an 8 year old, judging from the way you type.
Anyway, Go away, you obviously do not understand racial issues here in the States and how diplomacy works. your colors are showing and you bring down the good people who do support Clinton and McCain.

She fought too hard, and almost destroyed the Democratic party as we knew it. In the process, she destroyed the respect people have for her.

I will not ever vote for Barack Obama. This “typical white person” will vote for war-hero John McCain.
If Obama loses in the general election, Hillary may run again McCain in 2012.

Vanessa….Obama has won the nomination after Texas and Ohio, only the media is fanning that Hillary Clinton has the chance..media circus for fun. Look Lewinsky will resurface again and it is nice to watch, just enjoy it.

What MSNBC and Air America do not seem to realize is that atleast 1/2 of Dems back Hillary and still they promote Obama rather than report fairly. Ed Shultz on Air America radio got so upset because Hillary would not come on his show that he has been blasting her on a daily basis. Guess what Air America, you are supposed to be a radio station for ALL Dems, not just Obama and his supporters. Guess what else, Ed Shultz is making a lot of your listeners angry and you might just lose half of them if you allow Big Ed to continue abusing the power of his mike.
Something Big Ed should do is ask Obama what greatness his church of 20 years sees in racist Louis Farrakhan that made them select him as their Man of the Year.

Obama supporters don’t use insane words like most of you on this blog. You don’t have space for love, you all gather around ABC to satisfy your never shifting position on Obama even if you know the man is a good Man. You will want to destroy him just like Hillary is working hard to destroy him and the party. When I think of Hillary, it strangely makes me cringe that their are a dozen more out there like her, like you; who are scorned liar willing to accept lies towards achieving goals; dirty minded haters that are stereotyped. You are all typical, the world is watching and laughing at the white race for what appears to be ignorant out of context exaltations of a white mans quote in Mr. Wrights speech. That appears to be more important to white people than the love of America surviving in reality. Pride comes before the fall of a man. The world see good things in America and good things in Obama for the world and America. You all need to go to the dictionary and check again the meaning of patriotism , loyalty and hate and see where you fall in. God bless America

I will be saddened if Obama give Clinton an advisor role let alone the Vice Presidency

“It is funny to see American react to this election this way!”
For your information it’s not funny one single bit. Everyone has been through pure hell with the current administration. 7 long years of hell which seems like an eternity. Everyone is hurting pretty badly. You have no idea what you are saying.

LOU: You called bluff what a non American is saying, that is how the world sees us now, they are laughing at us ,our pride and stupidity. We are focussing on non issues and not seeing things clearly anymore. McCain may win because you all and the media has ruined Dem Party and that is the party that hoped to bring about change on how business is running in Washington- crying- Now we are beginning to see good things in a government that ruined the image of our country for 8 years, why? The world must know this, we are still reasonable people and most of us are not ignorant. We know the truth and the media cannot change that. Good bye

Clinton does not need to step aside. For what? Must be since you all are whining so much, for her to quit. Stop whining. You are afraid she’ll win. After all she has all the blue states. What in the hell is anyone going to do with Red state wins??? That’s life. That’s what the elections are based on. The big blue states. She won them. ‘Been that way forever. So no stepping aside for a teensy red state winner..naaa… And besides. That energy policy was swiped from Clinton. Or has your memory failed you of when she was talking about that very same policy and he had no policy yet on anything what-so-ever??? Get a clue. It’s not his policy to enact. He stoled it from the Clintons. He knows it. Now you need to know it. In fact, that is what the palgiarism thing is really about, except they didn’t want to go there knowing it would cause a big stink. My how the kool aid has ruined the mind.
‘nough said. That’s the truth. No need to respond to the truth. It’s been stuck in your nose and you still won’t see it..’night.

Since I don’t like H., I don’t like defending her. However, this is a contest; not an election.
H. has the right to try to win without being smeared as a “Tonya Harding”.
Remember 1980? Anyone smearing Ted Kennedy for fighting Jimmy Carter? No?
So why has the discourse decended to vulgar name calling? Ratings hype?

And where are her tax returns??

Through her entire history she has demonstrated that she is a ruthless liar willing to destroy anyone or anything that gets in her way. She has a personal track record of failure and tries to take creit for the accomplishments of others.

Where is Obamas real tax returns???

A new story is about to break regarding Obama. I understand this one is HUGE. I think it is either his stock scandal or the ties to terrorist. Can’t wait!!

fast forward to the future…..Hillary is now the president of the same old USA…..at a 3 am telephone conversation with the Russian President….. stand down or else i will nuke you she said… the Russian President get hyper and he launch the nuke to USA… the Carville her new NSA adviser said why did you threatened him… clinton gthe hillarious said…owww i misspoke it. it only proves that i am human and for some people its a revelation..wow!!!!!!!! what a 3 am phone call.

l just spoke with a Democratic Party official, who asked for anonymity so as to speak candidly, who said we in the media are all missing the point of this Democratic fight.
Hillary is going to win the election and nothing Obama can do or say is going to change that.

fast forward to the future….Hillary is now the President of the same old USA…..on one of her episode at 3 am, she said to the Russian President, stand down or else i will nuke you!!!..the Rus Pres. hurriedly launch the first nuke, the US radars picked it up immediately and her new NSA chief AKA JUDAS Carville asks her, why, what did you said to the Rus Pres??? owww i mis spoke the nuke thing!!!!!!!wow what a 3 am telephone call

that is a big lie.she lie not once twice but several times.i respect Clinton but cant stand her lying.if she lie because she deprived of sleep how much can she handle at the white house?How much lies will she tell at the white house.Let be honest if it was Obama she will speaking loud and clear against him.i dont want to believe she will lie on day one and be commader in chief in lies.please drop out.

If this Democratic Party official says that Hillary would have to use the ‘Tonya Harding Option’ to win the nomination then this official and Hillary must know something about Barack that hasn’t yet made the news. If there is something so bad that it would cause his supporters to pail it must be pretty serious. Voters need to know everything about the candidates now, not during the general election.

I agree what does this “Democratic official” know about Obama that the rest of us should know.
If Hillary brings this out to win she has done the democrats a favour.
Certainly the Republicans won’t hesitate.
Amercians need to know more about Mr Obama’s past and his associations before the nomination.
Ask this guy what he knows next time you have a little chat with him Jake.

If Hillary knows stuff so bad that it would make Obama unacceptable, I think she would have used it at this point. And I know that if she knows something, the Republicans likely know it too. They are probably saving dirt on both candidates – waiting for one to win. And I’m sure it will come from the talk radio hosts as McCain has sworn to run a clean campaign. So I don’t think there is anything the Democratic Party can do at this point. If there is a Tanya Harding club out there, it will get used – its just a matter of when.

Both factions of the the Democratic party have to stop slamming each other.
Hillary and Obama are at fault. While they’re tearing apart each other, John McCain is touring the world already acting as if he won the presidency. What is the matter with these two?

If you include Florida and Michigan they are dead even at 1688 delegates each.
The last time two states were sanctioned and the rules committee moved to keep them sanctioned in 1984, thanks to Ms Pelosi, the floor voted to seat them.
Florida and Michigan will be included and seated as is.
The delegate count is 1688 to 1688.
Take it to the floor Hill!

I know the delegate math favors BO at this time. But, it is possible for this thing to end up virtually tied. So this person is saying that HC has to do a Tonya Harding number?
On the surface this sounds ludicrous. We are already seeing a fractured party – as much the BO campaign’s fault as anything the HC campaign has done. But, apparently some factions of the Democratic part don’t want folks to recognize that the BO side can be vicious too. Its easier, and seemingly better, to use that brush on HC, since evryone know’s she would be the only one to do or say anyhting….
Of course, if this does end up virtually tied, particularly without counting FL and MI, that means that BO would have lost his “momentum.” It would be hard to argue that you are the best candidate if you no longer have the “MO.”
Is that what this person is afraid of?

Selfish hillary, no way Girl!!!how can i believe her again,just playing with our intelligence.

The question is not whether a connection can be established between Barack Obama and a former member of the Weathermen, but whether it has any significance for the 2008 presidential campaign.
Washington Post

With Michigan and Florida, which must be seated or the general election is over now,
The delegate count is 1688 to 1688
Dead even.
The Clinton camp needs to start using these numbers. They are the numbers that will be seated at convention now that obama has blocked revotes.\
1688 Clinton
1688 Obama

Ah yes, the anonymous source, always so reliable and never an ax to grind. Don’t bother me with the inside scoop of someone who wont stand up.

We (Americans) are not as stupid as you think. Tonya Harding???? How long has Karl Rove been on your payroll?
Obama – Wright?, Rezko?, Terrorists?, Farrakan?,Michelle(US not her country),Oprah (millions to Africa – is she American or what? – what about a girls’ school in West Virginia?)
I want the TRUTH about Obama. The media raced to embrace his flowery speeches ONLY to realize that they had backed a racist, anti-American opportunist. Now they don’t want to look foolish so they keep burying his dirt and attacking Senator Clinton.
Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Oregon, Indiana and all the others will show you what American now thinks of the
“After Wright” Obama………
Nobody has to MAKE him unacceptable – he IS unacceptable.

RobertCandela: And if you actually knew it, Chamberlain’s decision at Munich was met with almost universal support at home with very opponents out in the wilderness–most importantly Churchill and Eden.
Alternatively, an argument is made by historians that Chamberlain knew the deal wouldn’t last but was hoping to buy time for an upgrade to the Royal Air Force as well as the continued building of naval forces and that Chamberlain was only looking to buy time.
In any event, Chamberlain/Munich are irrelevant. They are about dealing with a madman at the head of an industrialized nation. It has nothing to do with a US presidential election.
**And not related to that, I noticed ‘Jim’ was back last night. I wish there was a way people could realize that that’s someone else.

Hillary is Horrible…..
‘nuf said!

It’s very clear from most of these posts that many white Americans still have deep seated racism and lack the humilty to be the beacon of light for the world going into the 21st and 22nd century.
Thank God for the white Americans that are wise and loving enough to stand for justice,equality, and liberty for ALL Americans.
So many of you hold up such a high standard of righteousness but what were / are you doing to bridge the gap created by white Americans by inflicting terrorism, brutality, rape, and other ungodly crimes against African Americans? We don’t want your handout, we just demand equality and justice.
No, many of you did not commit these crimes against humanity but you sure are comfortable with the benefits you are receiving.
Barack is not a perfect man neither are any of you. If America blow this chance to have someone with Barack’s extraordinary abilities, for shameful so called president like we have today, then we all will deserve the hell that we and our future kids will endure. All of this because a significant number of white Americans will allow hate and fear control the destiny of America.
Many of the same hateful things were said and done to Martin Luther King Jr. but now he is American hero.
America, choose love and peace instead of hate and war. Your immediate future depends on it!

The Clintons have shown over and over again that they are consummate liars. What an embarrassment they are proving to be once again. A promise of 200,000 new jobs for NY; now blamed on Al Gore? Still insists she was against NAFTA from the beginning? How gullible can you Clinton supporters be??

No wonder Obama is going to be president,studies have found he is a distance cousin to five former us presidents and one vice president, while hillary is one to madona the singer,……….I suggest hillary try country music,I promise i will buy her cd.

A truly wonderful American story is unfolding, a black man, son of a single mother, of mixed heritage, from an under-privileged family, rising to become the President. As a white university professor, I, along with my children and grandchildren, am honored and privileged to be part of this great history in the making. Now, will America rise to the occasion and embrace this great change and truly unite, showing the world that ONLY in America this can happen, and that it really is the land of the free? Or, will those whose better judgement is clouded by petty prejudices and misconceptions continue the divisive tradition of ‘Us’ and ‘Them’, propagated by those politicians who firmly believe in their politics of divide and rule?

Of course this is the Clintons’ plan. It’s the only way they can win. And the Democratic Party better hold her responsible for this as well as NY voters booting her out of Washington for good when she’s up for re-election.
This has been talked about quite a bit. Or if she’s not able to still steal the election, she beats up Obama so bad that he doesn’t win the general and then she gets to run again in 2012.
She wants power at all costs and I hope and pray the media carries this story more as well as all Superdelegates becoming very outspoken over what she’s trying to do. She’s been given a free pass on why she’s even still in this race.
Now there’s a survey out that 28% of her supporters will vote for McCain if she’s not the nominee and the percentage is much lower for Obama supporters. This only goes to show how divisive this woman really is and how Obama is the true unifier.
I don’t think she realizes that if she keeps this up this could be the end of her and her husband’s political careers. People are really angry over what she’s done and she will do anything (and I mean anything) to get this nomination.

What is really sad about this whole campaign is you all might be right. Hillaryu may pull of her nomination by her Tonya Harding rules, but who are the loosers? We are because the Reps will surely dig up all the trash that the Clintons have in their closets and McCain will win. We will stay in the war and taxes will keep going up. Be careful what you wish…The truth about Hillary will come out. The Bosnia incident was only the tip…

Hey D Truth,
I have spent my life standing up for equality, freedom, and those of minority status. And frankly, I didn’t feel so appreciated by Rev Wright’s speeches, to hear him tell it, people like me don’t exist, and all white people are racist bigots. All of us are to be mistrusted, and all of us punished for the sins of our grandfathers’ great grandfathers’. Well, that’s just a bunch of crap.
See, that’s the trouble. If Barak Obama believed in the love, unity and acceptance he preaches, then why in the world would he put Pastor Hate on his campaign team? Formally? It’s one thing to listen to the speeches for 20 years and expose your kids to it (bad enough, if you value “judgement”), quite another to “endorse” it by putting the guy in your STAFF. And why would he profess that firing Don Imus was the right thing to do, taking it further “I would not tolerate racist slurs against any ethnic group in my campaign”. Really? While he was calling for Don Imus’s head, Jeremiah White was enjoying a position of status on his campaign team. The sermons were a matter of record at the time… Humm, seems like Mr. Obama got caught in a blatant lie or at best, painful hypocracy. That, or white people are not worthy of “ethnic status”. Either way, it SUCKS.

As a feminist, I deeply resent it when other women tell me that ‘because’ we are women, we should support Hillary Clinton. Feminism is really about taking charge of one’s own life and making intelligent, responsible choices. Obama ’08.

She is really a monster,use every options wether good or bad.

An Opinion said:”I have spent my life standing up for equality, freedom, and those of minority status. And frankly, I didn’t feel so appreciated by Rev Wright’s speeches, to hear him tell it, people like me don’t exist, and all white people are racist bigots. All of us are to be mistrusted, and all of us punished for the sins of our grandfathers’ great grandfathers’. Well, that’s just a bunch of crap.” ———— It still doesn’t excuse Rev. Wright, but what you fail to appreciate is that it hasn’t been easy being black in America, even recently, and yes, even now.

This is the stupidest thing I have ever read. Who is this so-called party official? Hillary is the one who wanted a united party. If anyone is going to try the Tony Harding option, it would be Obama. He has used the race-card, the religion card, the hoodwink card, the no-vote card…The Democrats party can go ahead and nominate Obama while disenfranchising millions of Democrats. In the end you will get a charlatan and hypocritical candidate.
Between a war hero and the guy who listens to racist, America-hating words for 20 years, I hope America doesn’t lower its value and choose the latter.

What kind of a comment is that! Sounds like something that came out of the mouth of either Teddy Bear Kennedy of John “Lurch” Kerry….thus the Kerrigan reference…Anonymous my foot….
What a vicious race this is turning out to be….Where is John McCain..

What in the world has happened to ABC? Where is your integrity?
You run stories like this and ignore the failings of the fatally flawed candidate Obama. You should be looking at the misleading ads he is running in PA which claim he doesn’t take money from special interests. Bundled money is still special interest money and the Wall St lawyers and oil company representatives are as DEEP into Obama’s campaign as they have been in anybody’s.
I used to depend on ABC for fair and truthful reporting.
Shame on ABC for getting cought up in the media fraud that foisted Obama on an unsuspecting electorate!
Do some objective investigative reporting and get off the Obama bandwagon.
Step away from the Kool-Aid!

Obama is crippling his own campaign. He should drop out – Hillary is the only one who can beat McCain.

If you include Florida and Michigan, Obama only has a 15 delegate lead. After PA, he’ll be behind.
That’s the card taht the Clintons will play to win the super delegates and the nomination.

Dear Hillary Supporter,
If you can’t trust Hill now, when can you trust her? Tell your daughter the truth that Hill lied and trust your daughter to know right from wrong.

Does America want a fighter or a whiner for President??
Take to the floor Hill!

There’s the anti-Jim!! I knew he’d be around.
I love reading stuff like Hillary is the uniter–Hillary only wants unity for herself. She expected the nomination and budgeted to be done by Super Tuesday, only to find out that Americans want change, they want an end to fighting.
It’s amusing to see the “Republicans will eat Obama alive” arguments–on what? The same sort of issues that McCain faces? Because Obama has run a campaign that avoids slinging mud, NONE of the stuff that can hit Clinton has come out. If she is the nominee, everything going on now will look like a 3rd grade pool party–because the Republicans will not show restraint against her (nor should they). But with Obama, they will–partially because of fear of charges of racism, but partially because Obama and McCain have both staked ground as men who can work across the aisle–a dirty campaign dispels that.
It is time for the ‘Me Generation’ to be removed from control one way or the other. It is sad that the ‘Greatest Generation’ could spawn such a group of spoiled brats and their senses of entitlement.

If I have to hear one more time how Obama came from an underprivileged background as the child of a single parent, I’m going to scream. This myth is usually followed by a plaintive wail to elect this man because he alone has some mythical power to unite us all into a glorious Feelgood Oneness. God help us.

CelticOdyssey, The so called race-baiting that the Obama people and the media jumped on was Bill Clinton’s statement, “Dr King’s dream began to be realised when President Lyndon Johnson passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964. It took a president to get it done.”
No one bothered to explain that Martin Luther King, Jr himself said, “Direct action is not a substitute for work in the courts and the halls of government. Bringing about passage of a new and broad law by a city council, state legislature, or the Congress, or pleading cases before the courts of the land, does not eliminate the necessity for bringing about the mass dramatization of injustice in front of a city hall.
Indeed, direct action and legal action complement one another. When skillfully employed, each becomes more effective.”
What Bill said was accurate. If it doesn’t take a president to bring about change then why is Obama running for the office. Obama should have defended the statement instead of insinuating that the Clinton’s are racist. The media should have reported accurately instead of insinuating that the Clinton’s are racist.

A truly wonderful American story is unfolding, a black man, son of a single mother, of mixed heritage, from an under-privileged family, rising to become the President. As a white university professor, I, along with my children and grandchildren, am honored and privileged to be part of this great history in the making. Now, will America rise to the occasion and embrace this great change and truly unite, showing the world that ONLY in America this can happen, and that it really is the land of the free? Or, will those whose better judgement is clouded by petty prejudices and misconceptions continue the divisive tradition of ‘Us’ and ‘Them’, propagated by those politicians who firmly believe in their politics of divide and rule?

HoosierSue–did you feel the same way 16 years ago hearing about “A Man from Hope” and hearing about how horrible Bill Clinton had it as a child?
Blu–it IS about context and without it, the words of King are misunderstood–and that holds true, too for the words of Rev. Wright. Even Gov. Huckabee has spoken out against the detractors of Wright. Without context–it is easy to jump to conclusions.

Michael: it’s obvious the only true criterion you are using, typical of most eggheads who deal in theory and not the real world, to elect the next president is his color. Do you even care that he is going to impose socialist-style big government on ALL American citizens, the cost of which will trickle down to the middle class(I know YOU personally don’t care because no doubt you’d benefit and are probably tenured)

Blu, your reasoned opinion is noted, but you only mention one quote and ignore the rest. I consider several of Bill Clinton’s comments racist when you add them all together. It’s the entire tenor of Hillary’s campaign. Add to the mix the statements by top aides that “We won’t bring up Obama’s drug use, but the Republicans certainly will,” Hillary’s comment that Obama is not qualified for the presidency but might be qualified to be her vice president, and Geraqldine Ferraro’s recent statements.

It is wonderful for our country that a woman and a black man from a poor background can both rise to become credible candidates for national office. It’s just a shame that their politics are so wrong. If and when they are defeated, we ought to look at it as a positive thing — our country is mature enough to make its decision based upon the candidates’ politics, not their gender or skin color. I admire Hillary and I am inspired by Obama, but no way am I voting for either one of them. John McCain is the best candidate in this race.

s.b.
Your right. If the heads of the DEM party think they can screw over Hillary and us supporters they are insane. And they would be stealing the election from millions upon millions of us.
And the DEMS would pay for it in November.
And that is not smart. A new poll just came out showing that only 20% of Obama supporters wouldn’t support Hillary in the general while 30% of Hillary supporters wouldn’t support Obama. The DNC needs to back Hillary in order to win in November. Wake up DNC!

How in the heck is Hillary any different than Obama? For god sakes, he led everyone to believe that he was this saint who was going to reunite and take us all away from old politics. This to me, sounds like a hypocrate! I would much more believe Hillary’s military experience than Obama’s pothetic racist comments and his ability to hide the truth about his religious and his political support. No matter which way you look at it, Hillary and McCain have much more experience to run this country then Obama. Im pretty sure if Obama rights a book on Wrights inspiration, he will have him help run this country.

This all makes me so sad. When this campaigning started (was it just last year? it seems like a lifetime)I watched all candidates and listened closely. I was open to both Hillary and Obama, but ultimately voted for Obama very happily. I pray he wins the white house. The anger I feel whenever I see or hear Mrs. Clinton is enormous. She and Bill are liars, carpetbaggers, henchmen willing to stop at nothing for their own personal rewards. I pity chelsea and I will pity America if she’s elected. She’ll do ANYTHING to get back into the white house. It is amazing to me that Barack, a person who was not supposed to “stop” her from her entitlement presidency, is doing exactly that. Her latest lies are just preposterous. Does she think no one will check out these tall tales? What is WRONG with her that she could lie so easily? It’s pathological and that ain’t good.

Matthew: It’s one thing to ‘fight hard’ but another to fight dirty. Clinton fights dirty and has lost ALL my respect. I won’t even bother with your link since I’m sure it’s more rhetoric out of the Clinton campaign. She is destroying any chance of a democrat becoming president.

The DNC this year is just lousy overall. Everybody should have worked to keep Edwards in it. Although I do beleive is dropping out was more for personal reasons, he looked like the best candidate from either side. The three candidates from both major parties are all weak. And Mrs. Clinton has a proven track record of being a liar and criminal. I particularly care for either of the other two, but making her President is a sure way to screw the country even more.

CelticOdyssey, You’ll have to give me examples of the other purported race-baiting comments that Bill made for me to respond. As for Obama being qualified for the vice Presidency, I don’t agree with Hillary on that issue. Obama is not qualified to be in public office.
What Geraldine Ferraro said may not have been politically correct but it was very accurate. Sen Obama is where he is partly because of the color of his skin. Ferraro left the campaign staff after the statement because Hillary is doing her darnedest to keep on the issues and not get sidetracked with race and gender debates.
Both candidates have present and past staff members that made statements that the candidates wouldn’t make themselves.

DTruth: I agree with you totally.
All of this Rev. Wright stuff is just the Clintons way of destroying everything in sight, even the Democratic Party process to get elected. The Clintons don’t like progress they are part of the old south “good ole boy system”. The American people are falling for this.
If the American people think by nominating Hillary Clinton and she becomes President, that somehow this will return American to the Clinton years i.e. economically, think again.
Obama is all about bring people together not tearing them apart.

HOW MANY MORE LIES, OR “MIS-SPOKE” INCCIDENTS, SHOULD COME TO LIGHT BEFORE PEOPLE BEGIN TO WAKE UP FROM THEIR STUPORE AND REALIZE THAT SHE WOULD DO ANYTHING, INCLUDING TEARING APART THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND POLARIZING OUR PEOPLE, TO GET HERSELF ELECTED (BY THE WAY, THIS IS NOT ABOUT HER MIXING UP THE EVENTS. SHE NEVER FACED SNIPER FIRE, PERIOD. HOWEVER, SHE BROUGHT IT UP SEVERAL TIMES. IF THAT IS NOT A LIE, THEN, I DON’T KNOW WHAT IS). SHE RATIFIED NAFTA AND NEVER MENTIONED IT WHILE CAMPAIGNING IN OHIO. SHE HAS REFUSED TO RELEASE SOME DOCUMENTS WHICH COULD QUESTION HER CLAIMS REGARDING HER”EXPERIENCE”. SHE SUPPORTED THE INVASION OF IRAQ. SHE HARDLY MENTIONS ANYTHING ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE, WHICH, BY THE WAY, AFFECTS MORE AND MORE PEOPLE THAN ANYTHING ELSE. SHE LIES ABOUT HER ”EXPERIENCE”. SHE SIMPLY PLAYS THE FEAR AND THE ECONOMY GAME, BECAUSE SHE KINOWS THAT ONCE THE FOOD ON THE TABLE BEGINS TO SHRINK, SOME PEOPLE FAIL TO SEE THE BIGGER PICTURE. IT IS NOT THE MEDIA THAT DISTORT THE FACTS, RATHER, IT IS THE DIRE SHORTAGE OF TRUTH IN HILARY CLINTON’ STATMENTS WHICH SHOULD BE EXAMINED. Hilary, There’s a saying: Never let your memories be greater than your dreams. When you’re running for president.The White House needs no more of the politics of the same ol’ same ol’, the governance of those anachronistic politicians, with their divisive policy of fear and deception.As a white university professor, I, along with my children and grandchildren, am honored and privileged to be part of this great history in the making. Now, will America rise to the occasion and embrace this great change and truly unite, showing the world that ONLY in America this can happen, and that it really is the land of the free? Or, will those whose better judgement is clouded by petty prejudices and misconceptions continue the divisive tradition of ‘Us’ and ‘Them’, propagated by those politicians who firmly believe in their politics of divide and rule?

I don’t think Hiliary needs to quit I Believe FLORIDA & MICHIGAN NEEDS to be counted, then we will have a TRUE NOMINATION which is Clinton!!!! They media is so much TOUGHER on her than Obama, I only hope he will back Clinton when she gets the Nomination!!!! But we all know he will not.

Wise old lady: You are right. Problem is’ the candidates are bickering and all we are doing is responding to it.

When Hillary Clinton decides to put the Democratic party first, and herself second, the Democrats will surely “take their country back” as the slogan reads.
Hillary instead wants to take the
“Tanya Harding” approach and “break her opponent’s back” to win the nomination.
The Republican candidates, for the most part pulled out because they didn’t want to “further split the party”. McCain has the nomination locked up and an almost unified Republican party behind him.
The election of 2008 would have been a golden opportunity for the Democrats given the Iraq war and the economy. Hillary, AND Obama, however, put themselves first, and their party second, thereby flushing that golden opportunity completely down the toilet.

Yeah Marianne, it is it is called free speech. Have you ever seen CBN and Pat Roberson, heard the Late Jerry Falwell speak, listened to any broadcaster on Fox News, heard Ann Coulter speak. Nothing they are saying is any worse than what this preacher said.. Get over yourself and off your high horse. Jenny

How is Ms. Clinton still in the game considering all the bad press she receives? Seriously? How is she even keeping up in the polls? It must be all the stump speeches she gives that outline her plan to help this country. Even the WSJ commented that she is the only candidate who has a plan to fix the economy.
CLINTON/OBAMA 2008/2012

Anything Hillary does within the party rules is fair game. By the time all of Obama’s dirty laundry is aired there may be lots delegates with buyers remorse. People who voted for Hillary know all about her history. Many who voted for Obama before Rev Wright would not vote for him now. There is a lot of things that haven’t been fair. The media fawning over Obama with favorable press while using every opportunity to discount Hillary. The caucus system that has kept Hillary supporters (elderly & working people) from participating. I am sick of the Obama camp whining about Hilly not giving up so Obama can just have the nomination. If Obama wants to win this thing he is going to have to fight for it! Is he tough enough? Is he afraid of a woman? Maybe he doesn’t have the stuff to be President!

Jenny: Jerry Falwell is a preacher of the gospel, Wright is a preacher of anti-america and hating whites. Get a grip on life. There is a difference between the preachers. Where have you been? Falwell was not anti-american whereas Wright is. And Obama attending that church for twenty years knew that and didn’t remove himself from it. Since you think its right then why don’t you attend that church and become a member.

I am once again amazed at the stupidty of the American public. It’s not Hillary’s fault that Obama can’t take the political heat. Donna???, on GMA this morning, sounded like a mommy saying “don’t pick on my boy”. Yes, the press has been harder on Hillary than Obama. No, I don’t feel that it’s fair. Yes, I think that the American public should know all about both, good or bad. No body felt sorry for John Kerry or any other past presidential hopeful, when dirt flew. What makes Obama so special??

Isn’t it curious that the remaining uncommitted/undecided super delegates haven’t stepped forward and endorsed one candidate or another? Don’t they know enough about each candidate now? If they endorsed now then the race would probably end for candidate or the other. Why are they waiting? Poltical reasons/favors maybe? Maybe they are waiting for all of the voters in the remaining primaries to cast their votes because the race is still undecided.

I wish I could see in Obama what some of you see. I see a canidate with very ittle experience, few accomplishments in the senate, when asked about bad decisions calls it boneheaded and when pinned down, answers its not whats important and sees the president’s job as one who over sees with others making decisions and doing the work. It amazes me how blindly he is followed to the point where you can actually justify to yourselves that having a mentor friend and advisor for over twenty years with such racist and hateful views is okay. I hope this all works out for you.

If they don’t revote in Michigan and Florida it will no doubt result in a republican win in november. Also if Obama is so great and bringing the country together how is it that he cannot even bring his own party together

calif: You are so right. Hillary doesn’t have to break his back to win the nomination. Howard Dean chairman of the DNC is the one who is holding up the delegates from MI and FL because he endorsed Obama and doesn’t want Hillary to get access to those delegates. He should be thrown out. I never did like him from the beginning and Nancy Pelosi is another one.

this is juts so amusing after all the commenst calling republicans the party of hate and racists and worse, we see WHO is REALLY the party of hate and racism democrats, you have lots the lection already and just cant see it, if hillary does not pull out and presses on to denver there will be trouble, if obama doesnt step down and presses on to denver there will be trouble, and guess what neither is stepping down so THERE will be trouible in denver and I cant wait to watch you dems tear each other to pieces much more so than your doing now as you will be face to face with wioth your own party enemies. THANK YOU DEMS FOR THE MOST ENTERTAINING ELECTION YEAR IN MEMORY.

OOps misspoke: On CNN they are reporting that Hillary is NOW trying to steel pledged delegates, “More Clinton hints that pledged delegates are up for grabs
Posted: 09:40 AM ET” This race will never be over.

As long as ABC is playing w/pics, I say, go whole hog and include Obama in a skating outfit!

Regarding Texas and Ohio:
First off, Obama won Texas. He got more delegates and more popular votes.
I just read an article claiming that 9% of the demoratic vote in Ohio consisted of ‘one day only’ voters. These were crossover voters who voted for Hilary to keep her in the game and prolong this race. Thanks Rush Limbaigh.. you deserve prison time for conspiracy to commit voter fraud. Slime ball.
Do we really want to vote for who the republicans want to run against? What does that tell you about Hilary’s chances?
I’ll say this.. I’m an Obama supporter BUT if he does not win the nomination I’ll gladly vote for Hilary. No way in hell would I ever vote for McCain.

“oil company representatives are as DEEP into Obama’s campaign.”
What are you talking about? Obama voted to INCREASE taxes to big oil companies. It looks like you have been buying Hillary’s lies. She actually voted against the bill, so she was supporting the oil companies. The bill decreased their taxes in some areas, but increased oil company taxes overall.
Yet another example of how Hillary manipulates the truth and lies to voters.

Jake tells it like it is.

Nonsense. Hillary Clinton will run the table in the next primaries and the super delegates will see that only she can beat McCain.
I am from Illinois. Obama will destroy himself with his exaggerations and bullying. Every time he tries to pick on Hillary Clinton, he just brings up more about himself. Of course he wants this over. That’s why he is against letting MI or FL vote. That’s why he’s spreading the word that Hillary should get out — Don’t listen. Let’s finish voting then decide.

DNC official:
Do you want the Democratic Party to lose in November by pushing Obama? Looks like you, Obama, Dean, Reid and Pelosi believe ya’ll speak for all Democrats. So much for what the Democratic Party leadership thinks of its constituency.

Rev. Wright’s controversial comments equal less than 1% of his total sermons. Many others patrons of the church say those comments were NOT typical.
Hillary lies about her experience are much more disturbing to me. She has exagerated her role in 3 of the 5 items she said make her “ready on day one”.
Clinton has placed her desire to president above the good of the party. She has given McCain ammunition for the genearl election. Clinton will say anything, do anything win. I admire ambition, but not when you have sacrifice intergrity to achieve your goals.

Stacey, Where did you get that “less than 1%” figure? Did you listen to all his sermons and hear him praise America and call for his congregation to “love thy neighbor” the other 99% of the time?

“Better the Devil you know than the one you don’t.” This seems to be the underlying tone of the vehement Hillary supporters. Blame the media. It’s so unfair how they bash Hillary. When the race began, she was the “natural” candidate. All that experience! All those accomplishments! But when the nation turned away from her, choosing not to have another Clinton turn the White House into a soap opera, she turned from the “Natural” to the “Victim”. If she could have somehow overtaken Obama by some comfortable margin, I’m sure she would have gone back again. Give me a president that offers some stability, a measure of maturity. Talk to me about what matters to me. I don’t care who goes to what church as long as the results allow me to stop worrying about healthcare, the economy, gas prices and my mortgage!

Dear Surbuban Mom/Hilary Supporter:
You did the right thing in explaining the best you could to your daughter. I too am a professional Mom with a 9 year old son; and I would not have done a better job of explaining it to him. My humble opinion; Hilary’s tall tale only hurts herself and has nothing to do with your relationship with your daughter; thus, no need to feel terrible about it. We must learn to leave people to be judge by their God and not one else. We are none of us perfect; but chose to put others imperfection under the microscope so that we feel good about ourselves. Your daughters take their guadiance from you and not from a public figure. You sound like a good parent. Let’s also not forget: “Judge not that ye be not judged: and “let he who has not sin, cast the first stone”.

Mmmm…So if it’s okay to accuse Hillary Clinton of pursuing the “Tonya Harding” option – and for ABC to publish an article about it – let’s be fair and accuse Obama of pursuing the “OJ Simpson” option. Yes, just like OJ lied to the world, Obama is also willing to lie to the world and cheat his way to the nomination.
Where is the fairness in the media coverage of the Clinton/Obama battle? I am so incensed by the DOUBLE STANDARD. This constant and shameful crucifying of Hillary Clinton is beyond disgusting. And then Obama, who has behaved so appallingly throughout this entire campaign, is given a free pass. His campaign is rotten and negative to the CORE and it’s about time the MEDIA started calling it as it is!
I say GO FOR IT Hillary – do whatever you have to ensure your opponent does not get the nomination. He would be an absolute DISASTER for the Democratic party given his horrendously unethical associations and his reliance on racism, sexism, ageism, dishonesty and deception in order to seduce votes from unthinking members of the public! He must be stopped and Hillary is the one to do it!

I just saw a picture of Hillary with Richard Mellon Scaife.I have a Hillary sweatshirt for sale. How could anyone want power so much, that she is willing to forget the horrible things he did to her family. That picture was just too much for me to take.
Obama sees his pastor as a family member. Hillary uses her family for her own selfish gains. Who would make a better leader in this fragmented world.

Was this a portly anonymous Dem official? If only we had that descriptor, we could zero it in to Bill opportunist Richardson.

Where did you see this picture of Hillary with Scaife?

Your source is quite right: Threatening to destroy Obama is exactly what I have observed the Clintons doing.

Tonya Harding sez “that’s an outrageous and insulting statement!” “I would NEVER stoop to the tactics of the Clintons!” (Bill takes out pipe and kneecaps Samantha Powers)

Here’s what Hillary said about the Wright controversy, “He would not have been my pastor, you don’t choose your family, but you choose what church you want to attend.”…
“You know, I spoke out against Don Imus (who was fired from his radio and television shows after making racially insensitive remarks), saying that hate speech was unacceptable in any setting, and I believe that,” Clinton said. “I just think you have to speak out against that. You certainly have to do that, if not explicitly, then implicitly by getting up and moving.”
That doesn’t sound like an attack to me. Reporters have been pushing her to make a statement on this issue since the story broke, when she finally makes a statement then these same reporters say she’s on the attack.
Here‘s Obama‘s statement after the Imus incident, “I understand MSNBC has suspended Mr. Imus, but I would also say that there’s nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group. And I would hope that NBC ends up having that same attitude.”
Either he lied when he made that statement or he thinks racial slurs against white Americans is OK but you need to be fired is you make a racial slur against black Americans.
As for the Monica incident, it’s my opinion that they should have told the media and the world to stay out of their personal lives from the very beginning. Chelsea had it right when she told that reporter who asked about Lewinsky, “I do not think that is any of your business…”

This is not sinking to low tactics, that was Obama’s doing. Why shouldn’t Hillary comment on this issue? You can bet this alone has nearly eliminated Obama’s chance to win in November. Remember, he knee-capped himself with Wright by sitting in the pews for 20 years, etc. If Obama is identified as the nominee the Repulicans will immediately start their full scale assult on this issue and McCain will win in a landslide. Therefore, in my humble opinion, Hillary better do everything she can to get the nomination or, we the democrats, are doomed again in November. So MSM, if Sen. Obama isn’t able to get our nomination because he continues to get an all but free pass, doesn’t it behoove us all to find that out now, before it is too late? Or do some the good ole’ boys in the MSM, RNC, and possibly the DNC fear a female as “Commander in Chief” so badly that your willing to concede the general election to anyone, as long as it’s not Hillary? America really needs her. She is the best choice we have to restore our standing at home and abroad. I am far from alone in that opinion. Take a look at her position papers, plans, and solutions for America, then you decide. After that you will vote Hillary. I know I am. Thank you for considering America first. KY

All is fair in love and war. Superdelegates
are up for grabs. Obama’a lead is by a gnat’s a_ _,
so what’s the problem? Hillary’s NOT going to just give up after months of this tiresome election process. If Obama didn’t quit his church after 20 years- Hillary doesn’t need to step aside after ONE year of campaigning either. OBLAHMA just doesn’t get Hillary. He’s been doing the “Tanya Harding” on her for some time and has NO room to sit back and light up a cigar. (he’s probably someplace throwing gatorade on himself).
It’s refreshing
to see the candidate of “CHANGE” finally come full circle. Now, he’s just an ordinary Jo, who fights dirty and is arrogant enough to think that people should just step aside for him. The voters he alienates today are the ones he might need tomorrow.

Hillary, smell the flowers and get out now, before you screw every thing up!

If Hillary was going to go Arc Light on Obama the time would ahve been months ago before Super Tuesday, or maybe even just after. Now… whoa… I guess Hillary Clinton figures that by goign this far she’s risked more than if she had gone out early and will go all out to win. Strange, remember how everyone said all the early primaries and cauci would mean an early finish? Whoooo….. As the lady said, hold on, it’s gonna be a bumpy night!
I can just see John McCain sitting back like the aliens on the moon in that Far Side cartoon watching the fireworks.. “Ooh, ahh…”

Obama wants US to tighten our wallets and sacrifice! Turns out he’s a little cheap…1% to charity is like leaving a waitress a penny tip. But he gave his chruch almost $30,000. Whoooa Nelly, when I spend $30,000 I know ALL ABOUT the product I’m buying…but his HEAR NO EVIL, SEE NO EVIL speech seems to be okay in never, never land…Toto, we’re not in Kansas anymore- we’re in Obamaland…where we are taught to do as he says, NOT as he does! I’d sooner vote for Arnold Ziffel- (no offense Arnold).

Ok then where is the news media on this sniper fire? Does not a crowed of media follow the first lady every where she goes. What do they say? Any pictures or video of the alleged sniper fire. Many Websters dictionary needs an update. Mis-spoke is now equal to lying. I’m sure the next move by the Clinton’s is to dig up more dirt on Obama. The republican must love that they don’t have to waste time doing any dirty work.

You are all beingutterly SILLY. These games between Clinton and Obama are nothing new. These tactics are used every election. They can not win on their own standings, and obviously the morals and ethics, so they have to see who can ,ake the other look worse. It does not matter which one gets nominated, or which candidate from EITHER major pary gets elected. Out of the three, WE, the citizens, sre going to LOSE. I don’t know a whole lot about Obama, but what I do hear, I don’t particularlly trust him to run the country properly. Clinotn, well, it has been proven that her and Bill are both liars, cheats and crooks. I don;t see how people can actually support her so much. And McCain, he just as big of a power hungary politician ase the others. I don’t see any of them really caring more abbout the country than their own power and greed.
End this stupid two party system. It has been ruined by corruption and greed. Let find a candidate that truelly cares about the country and ourr future. maverickamericans.com

If Hillary wins the Democratic nomination or God forbid the election, she will inheret only the ashes of what used to be a great democracy.
Be very careful giving power to anyone who wants it that badly.

Most people here seem to want other than McCane to be president, and so are tossing all sorts of verbal hand grenades at either HRC or BHO. This to clear up one point that seems here to be frequently misrepresented. Obama DID NOT try to get elections in M and F canceled; he said, If the elections were held, he would abide by the vote coming therefrom. Whereupon BOTH in Michigan AND in Florida, the STATE LEGISLATURES, which would have to act to create a new election, voted not to hold such an election: neither Obama nor Clinton had anything to do with these decisions, and neither did Howard Dean. Finally, Obama has offered a compromise which was laffed out of the place by the Clinton campaign, that the delegates be seated splitting them equally between the two candidates. (In a way, this is a concession to Clinton, because Obama could have suggested that the delegates be split in proportion to those already committed.) So whilst hurling your verbal javelins, please be sure to get your facts right, and, who knows? Maybe the level of discourse here can rise above ad hominem attacks and move on into substantive issues.

note that Tonya Harding didn’t win the gold medal, either. if Hillary had any true friends, they’d tell her to drop out now, before she disgraces herself even further.

It’s like they say in the Star Wars movies: If you embrace the Dark Side, it will destroy you. Hillary’s going down like the Emperor trying to take everyone else out too. All of the anger on the Left has been focused inward and on each other between these two factions, and it is blowing them apart.
McCain, wisely, is just standing back and letting the Democrats implode.

Getcentered, first of all the Republicans lost control of Congress more because they did increase the size of the federal government along with the skillful attacks by the Democrats and the mainstream media on the “culture of corruption,” rather than the Battle of Iraq. The mainstream media refused to cover many Democratic misdeeds, but spent weeks hammering Republicans when their misdeeds would come to light.
The most glaring example is the case of Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA). She actually resigned from her subcomittee chairmanship when her conflict of interest hit the Internet. She was the ranking member of the Military Construction Appropriations subcomittee for six years before becoming the chairperson when the Democrats took control of the Senate. Her husband was awarded billions of dollars for military construction projects approved by Sen. Feinstein. All of this was known by the media during her re-election campaign and they sat on the story. In fact, the Bay Area news media, as far as I know, has still not reported on her resignation from the subcommittee.
And then there are Sen. Harry Reid’s (D-NV) land deals and the earmark that provided money for building a bridge over the Colorado River that would greatly increase the value of the 160 acres of land he owns.
Now as for the Battle of Iraq, it was al Qaeda that called Iraq as THEIR main battleground in their jihad against Western Civilization.
Now then, President Bush did NOT mislead us into war against Iraq. Even the Democrats believed that Saddam Hussein had WMDs. They even said so — in 1998 — when Congress gave President Clinton authorization for regime change. Saddam Hussein is the one who mislead his neighbors and the rest of the world into believing he had WMDs. We invaded Iraq because Saddam Hussein refused to comply with the conditions of the 1991 cease fire. After 12 years of failing to comply, the UN Security Council passed Resolution 1441, “a final opportunity to compy with its disarmament obligations.” Unfortunately, Saddam Hussein remained steadfast in his refusal to comply. When it became obvious that the UN Security Council was not going to follow through on its ultimatum, President Bush offered his own final ultimatum. Because France, Germany and Russia had convinced Saddam Hussein that the United States would not invade, he ignored President Bush’s ultimatum. Unlike the UN Security Council, President Bush followed through on his threat.
Contrary to the MoveON.org and George Soro’s talking points, al Qaeda WAS IN Iraq before we invaded Iraq. They had a training camp in northern Iraq. And the Joint Resolution to Authorize the Use of the United States Armed Forces, that was passed in October 2002, states: “Whereas members of al Qaida, an organization bearing responsibility for attacks on the United States, its citizens, and interests, including the attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, are known to be in Iraq;”
Finally, the Democrats want to increase the size of the federal government even more. They want to raise everyone’s taxes. Allowing the Bush tax cuts to expire will result in one of, if not the greatest, tax increase in American history. But they won’t stop there. They will also raise the tax rate for anyone making more than $97,500 in order to pay for the government’s takeover of the health care system. The fact that Sen. Clinton and Sen. Obama talk about making everyone obtain medical insurance is a real sham! They actually want to eliminate private medical insurance and replace it with either Medicare or a Medicare-like bureaucracy. In one of the recent debates, Sen. Clinton actually said that those individuals who are satisfied with their medical insurance can keep their plan, “FOR NOW!”
The 2008 General Election will come down to the issues. Do we want to raise the white flag and hand a military victory to al Qaeda? Do we want the federal government to take over the health care system — and tell us what we can or cannot eat and drink, and what products we can or cannot purchase based on the premise of preventative health care? Do we want wealth redistribution? Or even, as Sen. Clinton implied, do we want to replace an ownership society with one of “shared responsibility for shared prosperity,” and a “we’re all in it together society?”

Obama left the country when an important decision had to be made about Michigan voters. Should Michigan voters be allowed to revote? He whined because his name was not on the ballet. Florida votes should count because his name WAS on the ballot.
Now we all were shocked and suffered a loss because in 2000 GW was handed the Presidency by the Republican appointed Supreme Court.
Now we all wake up and scream outrage over Obama’s Illinois Attorneys refusing Michigan voters the right to have their votes count in a revote. Illinois Attorneys do not have the privilege of selecting our candidate. They will not be allowed to steal this election.
Where is the fairness of the rights of the voters, we expect Democratic National Committee to correct this immediately.

David Pippin -
I hope you are not refering to John Mc Cain as someone who does not lift his arms to salute or pledge of allegiance.
You may notice that he doesn’t raise his arms over his head like almost all other politicians. This is because he cannot raise his arms like everyone else as a result of the wounds he incurred in the North Vietnamese prison camp. He, like Bob dole before him, never complains about his limitations even though they were incurred as a patriot.
However, equating patriotism with a hand over one’s heart is simply foolish. Wouldn’t you guess that terrorists who are in this country would be scrupulous about ceremonial behavior just to throw us off track?
We demonstrate our patriotism by entering a debate such as the one on this blog, voting, paying taxes, attending PTA meetings, teaching, preaching, volunteering to help others, working hard, even making truthful criticisms of America when we get off track, and serving America with whatever gifts we have been given.
If someone can convince you of his or her patriotism by wearing a flag pin or saluting the flag, you are going to be taken advantage of not only politically but in life!

AL GORE

We need you!!!
The US will just not be right until you are president!
The ghosts of our forefathers will punish us until that happens!

Win or lose, Barak Obama is creating and unknowingly preparing himself for a job of far more importance than that of President of the USA!

Saying Hillary is using Tonya Harding-like tactics is insulting to Tonya Harding, who only wanted to destroy one opponent to fulfill her ambition. By comparison, in order to fulfill her ambition, Hillary is willing to destroy the whole party, deliver the 2008 election to McCain, ruin the chances of hundreds of downstream Democrats, and force millions of Americans to live for another 4 (probably 8) years with a Bush-lite administration, tanking economy, no health care, and more US troops committed in Iraq indefinitely. But hey, so long as she gets another bite at the cherry in 2012, who cares?

Hillary Clinton has every right to let the voters decide and since she won every state with more “ELECTORAL VOTES” than Obama. The Obama win states have less “electoral votes” or they are sure Republican states anyway.
The rules of the DNC which has say the “super delegates” should decide should rule in this case. Michigan and Florida also go to Senator Clinton yet due to total bungling by the Democratic Party they are trying to make them not count.
What angers me is that Obama has no accomplishments to show for his short career except his latest evil by calling white people like his grandmother a “typical white person”.
This racist remark by Barrack Obama is the shot heard around the world saying all white people are racist.
Then he insults our intelligence saying that in over 20 years he never knew or heard his close friend and mentor Rev. Wright make these racist statements(which he also prints in his bulletin and sells the sermons on cd in his church).
And he says we should vote on his judgment. The only judgment he shows is obvious bad and racist judgment like his pastor.

This makes no sense – you all are griping over michigan and florida. What part of “they didn’t follow the rules” do you not understand? If you parked at 350pm in a no parking from 7-4pm zone, you would get a ticket. Are you going to argue that because you had a “legitamite reason” to park there you shouldn’t get the ticket? Come on – use common sense. Rules are rules just like laws are laws. Those states knew that before they had people vote.
So when is it fair to break the rules?
