Clinton Stresses Party Unity in Remarks, Addresses McCain Ad

Dear American Citizens and the mass media of U.S.A.
As a concerned disabled American Veteran and American citizen, I
consider it my duty and responsibility to bring following critical
characteristics of so called Maverick McCain to you for proving me
wrong or right.
“The citizens of the United States of America have the ultimate
responsibility to elect the ” Right Candidate with the right
temperament” to lead our nation’ to address our nations present and
future moral, democratic, economic, educational, health care, energy,
military, and foundational soul of our nation.
In my firm professional opinion that the media should help the common
voter to explore and discuss following attributes of Hon. Senator
McCain.
1. Does he have a calm, cool, and collected ” temper ” [ Presidential
Temperament ]?
2. Does he have a sound and sustained “Judgment and Caliber”?
3. Does he have a reveal a presidential “Thought-fullness and
togetherness” of purpose and positions?
4. Does he lot or little “ex-poser and exploitation” around
Washington”?
5. Does he poses enough ” Vigor, wisdom and Vision ” for our
Great-grand Nation?
6. Does he poses foreign policy exploit-es based on ” American
Values, Virtuous, Vastness”?
7. Does his campaign talk. slogans and ads are based of facts and
free of fiction, deception, seduction, and attacks?
If your answer to the above questions is yes then recommend and vote
for him.
But in my professional. political, and personal opinion that vote is
against the common interests majority of American people, against the
world humanity, continuation of status qua and possibly dangerous
world order.
Long live U.S.A and its democratic people and their common sense.

It would be more believable if she would tell her husband and her aids to keep thy mouth shut.

About as believable as Biden’s 180 degree on obama,.

Awsome. I like that but, I fear even HRC can’t some of her supporters in line because they are republicans anyway.

I agree with Joe Biden. The Presidency does not lend itself to on the job training.

Americans are independent by nature and freedom loving by birth. We tend to make our own decisions. Our form of government requires a few select others to represent us in making laws, but each of us individually make the decision of who we want to trust to do that representation. I respect Hillary as she attempts to convert her supporters over to Obama, but I for one have to say that I don’t agree with her on this issue, and since on election day my one vote is equal to everyone else’s one vote, I won’t be casting mine for a Democrat for the first time in 32 years.

I agree with John Edwards. Obama voted “present” all the time because he didn’t want to take a stand on the issues, and have his positions come back to haunt him.

Hillary Clinton is doing what she has to do…they are die hard democrats, but it is true, she got 18 million votes, and maybe more if Michigan and FL counted, Bidden got 9500 votes, I myself a Clinton supporter and now a former democrat think it is an insult that Clinton was not choosen as VP. Go McCain.

Sir, thank you. Neither I nor my brothers will forget the POW’s that were left behind. McCain should bow his head in shame. We stand with our Iraq War Veterans.

Hey, Michelle! My soul’s not broken, so I don’t need to vote for your husband so he can fix it. BTW, shouldn’t you worry about your own soul before you try to fix mine?

I am a lifelong Democrat, and I am a strong Hillary supporter. Obama will not get my vote in November if the Dems nominate him. I will vote for McCain as will abut 40% of all Hillary supporters. Do the math Obamabots, that’s 7,000,000 Dems voting for McCain. And it is not about the personalities of Hillary or Obama, it’s about the very different policies and factions that are representitive of the two candidates. Hillary is an FDR style Democrat, and Obama is a neoconservative, pro-Lieberman Dem.

d – absolutely it comes down to Obama’s Private Public Partnership economic schemes and Hillary’s FDR, Federal Government backed Infrastructure Program.

Memo to Obama cult followers: referring to the former First Lady of the United States as a “dried up old fruitcake” is not a prescription for winning over her voters. Nor is referring to her supporters as old, inept, uneducated, fat, stupid or racist. But keep trying! Maybe by November, we’ll realize that we really are old, fat, stupid and racist, and we’ll give Barry our vote out sheer guilt.

I love Hillary Clinton.
I will be voting for McCain.

The fact is that both Hillary Clinton
and Joe Biden stated during the primaries that Obama was not
experienced enough to be president!
What has happened to change that
assessment?
The fact that Obama is about to become
the Democrat Nominee for president?
They were both either lying then or they
are lying now!
Just Say No to Obama! No You Can’t!

The Clinton’s are going to take this Convention away from Obama…just wait and see. You can look at Hillary and Bill and tell they are up to something….this is going to be interesting! I’m glad I’m a Republican and get to watch Obama fail at his own convention, and now, even with all the hoopla, Obama is falling in the polls! I love it!

I heard that Michelle Obama, tonight, will try and make the Obama family look like the D*ck Van Dyke show. This is such a joke.
I find Michelle Obama to be a frightening person. I will never vote for Obama because I don’t trust him. He has thrown all of his long term friends under the bus (and his spiritual leader) why would he do anything different to all of the Americans?
Who is Barack Obama?
Democrat for McCain

Right Alice, you are a Repub and you know it.
Only repub would vote republican. I do not care how much experience you think Obama does not have but his policies are just like Hillary’s, he has a cleaner record then she does, he has a great voting record for the time he has been a senator. I am a democrat and I will be voting democrat, only a fool who wants the US to fall and fall hard will vote for McCain.

Another lie from Obama…he said that the DNC would no longer accept money from lobbyists yet his VP pick has accepted huge amounts of money from lobbyists this year and the entire Democratic Convention is being funded by lobbyists.
You can’t trust a word Obama says. Who is Barack Obama? Scary!
Dem for McCain

Obama has said this:
“I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international
support will only fan the flames of the Middle East and encourage the worst, rather
than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of Al Qaeda.
“I am not opposed to all wars. I’m opposed to dumb wars.”
If anyone looks at MCBush campaign from 2000 you will see he is an obvious flip flopper or suffering from alzheimers.
OFFSHORE DRILLING
THEN: During the 2000 Presidential campaign, McCain favored the moratorium on offshore drilling, promising to “never lose sight of the fundamental principle that federal land management decisions affecting local communities must be made in cooperation with the Americans who call those communities home.” (Sustainable Energy Coalition, 1/18/2000)
NOW: In June 2008, McCain called for an end to these federal bans, saying, “It is time [...] to lift these restrictions and to put our own reserves to use.” (CNN, 6/17/2008)
RELIGIOUS RIGHT
THEN: Campaigning for the presidency in 2000, McCain described Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell as “agents of intolerance”, saying, “I don’t pander to them, because I don’t ascribe to their failed philosophy that money is our message.” (CNN, 2/28/2000)
NOW: In 2008, McCain delivered the Commencement speech at Jerry Falwell’s Liberty University and supported this decision, saying, “the ‘Christian right’ has a major role to play in the Republican Party.” (NBC’s Meet the Press, 3/5/200)
REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS
THEN: Running for president in 1999, McCain was opposed to repealing Roe v. Wade. He said, “Certainly in the short term, or even the long term, I would not support repeal of Roe v. Wade, which would then force X number of women in America to [undergo] illegal and dangerous operations.” (San Francisco Chronicle, 6/19/2008)
NOW: McCain’s website says, “John McCain believes Roe v. Wade is a flawed decision that must be overturned, and as president he will nominate judges who understand that courts should not be in the business of legislating from the bench.” Additionally, on several occasions, McCain has said himself, “I do not support Roe v. Wade. It should be overturned.” (MSNBC, 2/18/2007)
SOCIAL SECURITY
THEN: Stumping for President Bush in New Hampshire in 2004, McCain responded to a participant’s question saying, “Without privatization, I don’t see how you can possibly, over time, make sure that young Americans are able to receive Social Security benefits.” (C-SPAN, 11/18/2004)
NOW: In 2008, McCain answered a participant’s question at a town hall event in New Hampshire, saying, “I’m not for, quote, privatizing Social Security. I never have been. I never will be.” (CNN, 6/12/2008)
TAX CUTS
THEN: In 2001, McCain opposed and voted against Bush’s tax cuts, saying, “I cannot in good conscience support a tax cut in which so many of the benefits go to the most fortunate among us, at the expense of middle class Americans who most need tax relief.” (The New York Times, 3/3/2008)
THEN: McCain opposed Bush’s additional tax cuts in 2003, because he argued the cost of the Iraq War was not yet known. (The New York Times, 3/3/2008)
NOW: In 2006, McCain voted to make these tax cuts permanent. In a 2008 presidential debate, he said, “We need to make the Bush tax cuts permanent, which I voted for twice to do so.” (CNN, 1/30/2008)
The problem with McCain is that his brain is no longer working. even talk show host Bill Cunningham said MCold had some mental problems. This was in reply to McCain’s denial that he had ever met Cunningham when,
in fact, they had met twice. This is a far right-winger talking about his own candidate and you’d better listen to him.
It’s not that his temper gets the best of him, he’s mentally disturbed and time after time, has made
statements that suggest he’s either confused, unaware of the reality of the situation, or true liar.
If McCain’s experience could not help him vote against the Iraq war, how will it help him make America safer and better by continuing failed Bush policy?

Carrie – All good points.
More trash talk from the Obama folks:
DENVER — A black Hillary Clinton delegate on Sunday accused state Senate President Emil Jones of calling her an “Uncle Tom.”
Jones — Barack Obama’s political mentor — denied using the racially loaded slur against Chicago political consultant Delmarie Cobb, but two aldermen who said they witnessed the Saturday night exchange back up Cobb’s account.

So much for unity!

when Americans look for a change in leadership — for the crumbling economy, skyrocketing gas prices,
encompassing budget deficit, health care, the environment, education, and on and on – they only see MCBush
economic advisor blasting a “nation of whiners,” , MCBush is totally out of mind and out of touch when is continuing failed Bush policy while ignoring that 81% of
the nation says America has pretty seriously gotten off-track.
True Christian and faithful person will be stupid to Vote for McCheater who has admitted adultery while married to his first wife.
That marriage broke up after McCain met Cindy Hensley, who was young, rich and offered McCain
a base to launch the political career he was already contemplating. How could you trust this Cheater man to lead America?

I was a prisoner of war in Vietnam, but I didn’t betray my country and my comrades in arms
the way John McCain did. America’s enemies may want a traitor and a coward as our next president
but I sure don’t. So I won’t vote for John McCain.

Thank you, Senator!

Some people fail to understand that after the competing for the nomination is over, all people involved unite behind their party’s nominee. They put all the campaigning behind them and focus on getting their person elected. Because in the end, they are all on the same team. Forget about the past and get on with supporting our Democratic candidate Obama.

OMG! I got a text from Obama! Is ticketmaster selling tickets to the Obama concert? I have to tell my BFF!

Hillary says this as she chokes on the bile….she hasn’t had any of the old energy and passion we saw on the campaign trail. This has to be so hard for her, as it is for MILLIONS of her supporters who DON’T HAVE TO TOE THE LINE…..VOTE McCAIN!
Nothing she, Bill, Michelle, Ted Kennedy, or the coronated one himself can say this week to change MILLIONS OF OUR MINDS…..DEMS FOR McCAIN…..YOU WILL SEE PLENTY OF THOSE BUMPER STICKERS.

Prisoner of war in Vietnam — yeah right! Did they offer you early release and did you say no? How long were you a prisoner of war? Was it at the Hanoi Hilton. Did you get “beat up more” when the found out your father was an Admiral in the Navy? What physical diabilities do you have from your experience.
John McCain voted against Veterns bills that were filled with earmarks and pork that had nothing to do with veterns benefit (similar to the earmarks for Obama’s wife’s hospital). He felt that all money in a bill for Veterns should go to Veterns.

Obama is our best choice and anyone who says they would vote for Hillary, but are now voting for McCain, have more going on than Obama’s so called lack of experience. How much experience did Jimmy Carter, and Bill Clinton have? They both did good things for this country. I don’t understand why anyone wants four more years like the last eight.

Hillary Supporters for McCain…what about supreme court appointees. That is what this election is about. Will you benefit from more men like Roberts, Thomas, and Scalia on the bench?
Think long and hard before casting your bitter vote for McCain.

Please be VERY SUSPICIOUS of comments from supposably “vets.” More often than not, these are fakes. As one who is familiar with the military life, the number one cardinal rule is NEVER criticize your Commander in Chief or political leaders as it could have serious consequences on those active duty members are still serving overseas. Non-active service members, if true, don’t use our military to boast your OPINIONS as fact it just demonstrates how selfish, unfeeling you are toward your fellow comrades..

Curious, I am no fake. HHB, 1st BN, 81st ARTY, 56th BDE.

So, Gina, I guess you think Hillary is lieing now, right?

She lost ten states in a row. SHE LOST

She lost and still has the class and dignity to do the right thing for the party, for America, for the future. It is too bad the PUMAS can’t put aside their anger and follow her lead. Do you want her to have a future, which might include being President some day? Then put the party and our country first and do not help subject us to a third term for GWB. By the way, PUMAS, look up the word “petulant” in the dictionary.

PUMA voters
Vote and support whoever you choose. I’m delighted you appreciate McCain’s honesty.
He was sooooo honest with the wife who worked 5 years for his release as a POW, and DUMPED her after she was disabled in a near fatal car crash.
He was soooo honest when he got his 2nd marriage license to Cindy McBigBucks a MONTH before his divorce was finalised.
He was sooo honest when asked how he would beat that B*TCH (Hillary) at a Townhall meeting…and he chuckles
He was sooo honest when in a temper fit he called Cindy “C*NT” in public.
He was sooo honest at the Keating Five hearings.

This Hillary thing is just dragging on a bit too long, don’t you think? It is time to stop whining. I don’t believe I heard anyone out there saying the real reason the Obama Camp doesn’t want to deal with her…maybe that she has some baggage to bring along….namely husband BILL? Who would want all of his past womanizing brought up again, and then to have to deal with Hillary’s continuing decision to “stand by her man” in light of what he has been out there doing in the past? Too much else more important in this world today!

Dear Hillary fans-
If you’re going to vote for Mccain I highly suggest you spend the next few months close to your children. Because once Mccain gets is, your children are going to Iraq. Then Iran. Then Russia. Then Venezuela. Then another oil-rich country. Then another. Then another. Maybe if you’re lucky, they’ll come home in one piece, if at all. So go ahead and hold your grudge. Go right ahead. Do it for your kids.
FL Independent for Obama

FL Independent for Obama….SCARE TACTICS DON’T WORK… OBAMA WANTS TO INCREASE TROOP PRESENCE IN AFGHANISTAN AND INVADE PAKISTAN, WITHOUT THEIR GOVERNMENT APPROVAL, TO GET TALIBAN…OH WAIT, MAYBE IT WILL WORK…DON’T VOTE OBAMA

If you liked Cheney & Big Oil, you’re gonna just love Joe and Big Money.
Vote for them at your peril.

For everyone who thinks Obama needs on the job training, just remember that 4 years ago, a majority of the US voted to re-elect Bush. So you might want to rethink what you think is best, esp if you’re one of those who voted for Bush.

Laraine Harrison (4:08pm) said it all.
Thank you ma’am.

1. The same people who elected Bush twice are voting again. I’d say their ability to assess a person’s character, intelligence, and vision is sorely lacking substance. Yes, they will be voting again.
2. Contrary to Carrie’s idealistic regurgitation, many Americans are naive, easily mislead, and easy to manipulate through economics (the real religion in this country) and dogmatic religious points of view. The Republican Party is the ultimate charlatan when it comes to unifying these easily mislead individuals.
3. The Democratic Party shows too much indecisiveness in collective activity. They condemn a whole lot, but then waver under pressure. They can’t be trusted. People seem to believe that Presidents of the United States perform their daily duties in a bubble. Folks, it takes serious cooperation from both parties to get anything done, or for one party to take a stand with a US President. Obama could be elected, but it won’t make much of a difference in things don’t change in Washington.
4. Obama might not be the ideal candidate for the current collapse that we face in this country, but he’s the only politician in this country speaking the truth about corrupt politics. Are dreams enough? Is hope enough? It starts there and if he surrounds himself with the right logistics personnel, they can help him turn his vision into a reality. That’s how it is supposed to work – through a collective effort to make everyone’s life better by providing opportunity.
5. It’s time to take our country back from the corporate hounds that whore out working class citizens, or send jobs overseas. While should the average man and woman sacrifice so much under the economic pressure applied by corporate privateers? No more. The military industrial complex has proven to be a short-term fix to long-term economic flaws, yet we continue to go down the same path.
6. The middle class is being exterminated. Education is failing. Innovation is non-existent. Debt is rising. Corporations are experiencing record profits while charging more and more for their goods. Home values are dropping. Banking institutions are teetering on the brink of collapse; thus, are also tightening restrictions on all types of financial services for first time home buyers, entrepreneurs, independent contractors, and so much more.
7. Years of wasting valuable resources on ill-advised military conquests in the name of religion and super-inflated nationalism, disguised as necessary and prudent actions to prevent certain crisis. Spreading American values to the world at large while, at the same moment, sacrificing those values to accomplish economic objectives.
8. We are talking about Americans who were more interested in impeaching a previous president for his salacious cheating scandals, rather than talking about impeachment proceedings for a president who waged an illegal war under disinformation and false pretense, fabricated long before the terrorist attacks. Despite knowing that the president led us into an unnecessary war and having done so through manipulative means, the American people went with him for a second term.
9. The current generation of Americans must be prepared to make significant sacrifices in order for this country to be a viable option for the next generation. Baby Boomers really screwed the pooch on this one, didn’t they? It’s all been about short-term success for the few while the many pay the price – and so willingly by continuing to vote for the same kind of leaders.
/End Rant

You guys are all making me sick, do you REALLY hate Obama THAT much that you are willing to live with 4 more years of REPUBLICANS…SERIOUSLY you make NO sense. Does Hillary have to knock on your door personally and tell you to vote for Obama to get you to understand that he is the MUCH better choice. Voting for McCain isn’t hurting anyone but yourself, grow up and vote for the person who you agree with the most on the issues, not the person who hasn’t beat the person you like in the polls.

Look, McCain is hardly what I would call a far right Republican. He is as much a liberal as a Conservative. It’s interesting, as a Republican, to come here and notice that the majority of posters supporting Obama are very angry and hate filled in their posts. THIS is one of the reasons I am a Republican. The left tends to be very hateful and angry. I don’t want to vote for McCain because he sees things further to the left than I am happy with. I may just vote Libertarian this time, but I know I will never vote for someone who is as far to the left as possible. This isn’t Europe, I don;t want it to be. For those of you who do, why can’t you just move?

To the “vet” above, Hoo Ahh! you said” the number one cardinal rule is NEVER criticize your Commander in Chief or political leaders”
I thought the number one rule was to protect and defend the constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic. I didn’t hear Rush telling his listeners not to criticize President Clinton, when WE WERE AT WAR IN KOSAVO!
Obama 08
PS Rock on HRC for such a kick ass comment!

HELL YEAH!!…HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT 2050!!

I don’t like either candidate. I have a hard time believe that Obama will “change things” just like the Dems said they would change things in 2006 when they took over the house. Haven’t seen any changes in two years.
I have a hard time with Obama pretty much just not stating his point of view on every moral issue. If you take morals out of a person, what do you have left? Money can disappear, economy can fail, but your morals will always be a part of you.

Are you commentators all kidding. this isn’t a popularity contest. why the hell would anyone in their right mind vote for McCain instead of Barack just because he didn’t choose Hillary as his VP. Let me tell you, if she had gotten the democratic nomination, she wouldn’t have taken Barack as a VP. Now, McCain is a snake in the grass, he votes consistently 98-100% on all votes just like Bush does. Our country does not need another Bush. Any immature commentator here who is going to vote McCain just because Hillary is not the presidential nominee for the Dems is too immature to vote and really should stay out of the polls. Would you idiots also rather scuttle your own beautiful ship too because the captain of the ship is not the person you wanted. McCain is here to get us into World War 3, he hates the POW/MIA organization that saved him, he was never tortured in Vietnam (he was given preferential treatment because hes the son of an Admiral, and the Vietnamese tried to use him for negotiation talks). So to all you “democrat for mccain” people, get your heads out of the sand, McBush is not the person you want to lead our country. We need Obama, a person who will fix all the problems Bush caused, and not McCain who will only make the problems worse!

I been listening & listening but guess what nothing. If you want to run on the change platform you really need to add the words to explain what change is…. If you are going to change our dependence on foreign oil tell me how. To me we should drill new wells and develop alternatitve energy at the same time. It not an either or issue. You say you are going to create 5 million jobs, how? Fix health care, how? I think this election should be a referendum on lying politicians. The time has come…. If the elected can’t do the job then we should be able to fire them and replace them with someone that will get results. Maybe the Democratic controlled Congress, which has done nothing over the last 4 years, might respect the wishes of the people and not just their own wants.
I just joined the 50′s demographics and let me tell you we have plenty of natural resources at our disposal but congress won’t allow them be be used.
If the politians do their jobs fine but,
FOR REAL CHANGE….
THROW THE BASTARDS OUT.

Hillary supporters,
before you go out and vote McCain please educate yourself a little on where he stands politically:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_positions_of_John_McCain
He would be an even worse catastrophy than G.W Bush.

You morons voted in the village idiot to run country – maybe after 8 years of disasters (yes disasters – oil at all time high, gas prices never seen before, health system that allows people to die in the hallway, “working” democracy in Iraq, bank’s failing, people loosing their homes ) the Americans will see that Republicans were / are nothing more than the biggest scourge USA ever faced. God bless
I am glad I don’t live in the country of “free”

I just don’t understand Hillary supporters now going over to McCain… why would you completely 180 degree change your stance on the majority of your views just because your candidate didn’t get the nomination? New flash, McCain will continue to fight against pro-choice policies (he said this explicitly at the Saddleback convention), will continue the fight in Iraq no matter if it bankrupts us or how ever many lives it needs to “win” (not just our soldiers mind you), and will continue the economic traditions of the Bush administration. Tax cuts for the wealthiest while everyone else just finds a way to fend for themselves. You guys need to accept that while Hillary is a very adept person, she ran a bad campaign and lost. Part of politics is appealing to the most people…Hillary wasn’t able to do that.

Funny how she had “eighteen million” reasons not to quit but those eighteen million voters can’t pony up sixty cents apiece to bail out her debts. No, there was no Operation Chaos, nosiree…
