Bill Clinton: McCain ‘A Great Man’; Praises Wife’s, Not Obama’s Economic Plan

ABC News’ Jennifer Parker reports: Former President Bill Clinton has largely kept himself out of the public eye since his wife lost the Democratic primary to Barack Obama.

However in a rare television interview tonight, the former president called Republican presidential candidate John McCain "a great man" and praised GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin as an "instinctively effective candidate."

On a day when Obama sought to convince voters that he’s best able to handle the economic crisis, the former president said it was his wife, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., who gave today "the most detailed position" on what to do about the financial crisis.

In an interview with CNBC’s Maria Bartiromo, Clinton, who has tried to put to rest rumors of tensions between himself and Obama said, "I’ve never concealed my admiration and affection for Sen. McCain. I think he’s a great man.

"But, I think, on the issues that matter to our future, the Obama-Biden team is, is more right," Clinton said of the Democratic ticket. "And I believe they’re gonna win. But, I think that it will be competitive until the end."

A ringing endorsement it wasn’t.

The former president said Obama "has offered some very specific and sensible economic reforms and healthcare reforms."

Clinton, who said he agreed with the US Federal Reserve decision to bailout insurance giant AIG, said his wife who today gave, "the most detailed position I’ve seen on what she felt we ought to do on the finance crisis."

The two-term former Democratic president invited Obama to lunch in his New York office last week and has agreed to campaign for him in the coming weeks.

But if tonight’s interview is any indication, Bill Clinton will not be lavishing praise on his wife’s former primary rival.

Clinton predicted the Democrats will win back the White House in November because voters are ready for a change.

"I think what, what typically happens in these elections if you look throughout American history when the country’s in a fix and you know where we’re going is not sustainable, then there is typically a breakthrough," he said.

"I think that the, the people said, ‘Well, they [Republicans] had the Congress and the White House for six of the last eight years. We’re in trouble. We liked Senator McCain. We recognize he’s a little bit of a different kind of Republican. But, we’re gonna make a change.’ And I think that’s where they’ll be and I think that you’ll see a victory for Obama and Biden," Clinton said.

However, Clinton, said there could still be  "some unforeseen development," perhaps in the debates, he said, that could threaten a Democratic win.

"Barring some unforeseen development like in– something happens in the debates we don’t know about. I– I– I– it may not be apparent in the polls until last week or two of the election. But, I believe that it will be apparent on election day. I think that– I think Senator Obama will win this election," Clinton said. 

Asked if he was surprised by the bounce McCain received in the polls after choosing Palin as his vice presidential candidate, Clinton said he wasn’t, and lavished praise on the Alaska governor.

"No, she’s a– she’s an instinctively effective candidate," he said, "And with a compelling story. I think it was exciting to some, that, that she was a woman. It was exciting that she was from Alaska. It was exciting that she’s sort of like the person she is. And she grew up in a,  came up in a political culture and a religious culture that is probably well to the right of the American center. But, she didn’t basically define herself in those terms," Clinton said.

"She handled herself very well," he said, "I get why she’s done so well. She, she’s, it’s a mistake to underestimate her. She’s got good intuitive skills. They’re significant."

Asked whether his wife intends to run in 2012 if McCain wins, Clinton did not rule it out.

"I don’t know," he said, "You know the one thing we’ve learned at, at our age is that, you know, I hope we’re both active till we’re 90 and healthy. But, I think that her focus will now be on what she can do in her present positions to try to help her deal with all these things that threw her into the presidential race in the first place," he said.

Clinton added, "I think that– that what she will do is to continue to try to be a national voice as a result of her campaign on economic and healthcare and energy issues that got her into this presidential race in the first place."

The former president suggested he and his wife have put aside "personal politics" and are working hard to elect Obama.

"She’s workin’," he said of the New York senator. "You see her. She’s out there workin’ hard for Senator Obama. She, like me, believe he’s gonna win. And no matter who wins, we’ve got to put our, our own personal politics aside for the next couple of years and get after these problems," he said.

"We’ve got, we, we’ve got to shelf the politics for a while and work on the substance. And if we’ll do that, the politics will take care of itself," the former president said.

McCain once was an honorable man. Palin was never an honorable politician.
As a vice presidential candidate, Palin has railed against federal earmarks, or congressional funding for pork-barrel projects. “In our state, we reformed the abuses of earmarks,” Palin recently boasted to a rally in Lancaster, Pa. “We championed earmark reform up there,” she said, “to stop Congress from wasting public money on things that didn’t serve the public interest.”
But musty records culled from the archives of the Wasilla, Alaska, city government reveal that Palin was directly involved in soliciting millions of dollars in earmarks for Wasilla when she was mayor. And she got help from a well-connected Washington lobbyist.
In a monthly status report to the city on March 7, 2000, newly hired “City Lobbyist” Steve Silver describes how the Palin administration had requested $6.6 million in federal earmarks for water and sewer improvements for Wasilla, and another $1 million for police equipment. Mayor Palin reviewed and signed the lobbyist’s report, dated April 5, 2000.

I’d love to support Obama if he’s not too far left. McCain is more to the center. He’s a different kind of Republican. I don’t agree on all Palin’s viewpoints but, as a VP, she’s fine. At this very tough moment, we can’t afford Obama’s socialism. Not an ideal solution for now.

I agree with the previous poster. What a traitor! “Oh he beat my wife in the primaries, I’m gonna sulk”. Then don’t pretend to be supporting Obama. We don’t need this kind of “endorsement”. What a selfish, racist pig.

Bill Clinton is a lot of things, and I don’t like him, but he is not a racist. He likes McCain and dislikes Obama for a good reason – ideology. They rank like this:
Obama is a radical Communist;
Clintons are both very mild Socialists on the left of the center;
McCain is a mild Socialist on the right of the center.
So, McCain is a lot closer to Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton in his economic and social vision for the country than the uber-Marxist Obama.
Vote for McCain/Palin!

Posted by: Andrew | September 18, 2008, 7:10 pm 7:10 pm

Hilary is a moderate democrat, much like Bill. I am sorry she didn’t win. I am an independent who doesn’t really like McCain much and don’t trust Obama at all. He is too socialistic and we don’t need extreme leftist politics to deal with the problems we have. I hate that we are always having to vote for the lesser of evils…

Posted by: Mickey 13 | September 18, 2008, 7:11 pm 7:11 pm

Bill Clinton is so two faced. His is not to be trusted. He is only looking out for his self. Hillary had better hope Obama wins. Because Palin will run for president in 2012

Right tilly, anyone black running for office wouldn’t get full support from the democrats. But I’m glad you all put it out there for all to see. Now I’m sure african americans that value their right to vote will vote accordingly.

DEAR REPUBLICANS,
Every day I learn more about John McCain’s running mate, and therefore, about John McCain himself.
DID YOU KNOW that when Sarah Palin was elected to be mayor in Wasilla, Alaska, she spent FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS on improvements to her new office?
DID YOU KNOW that she forced construction to start on a new iceskating rink on land the town didn’t own?
DID YOU KNOW that she tried to get the land by suing the actual owner, in effect trying to STEAL his private property?
DID YOU KNOW that the town ended up spending an extra 1.5 MILLION dollars for the land because they didn’t have title when they starting construction?
DID YOU KNOW that this town only had a small police force, library and local museum. That the town did not have responsibilities for schools or roads or building permits (handled by the county).
DID YOU KNOW that even with these few responsibilities she had to hire a city manager to do the work?
BUT. She is a woman. And she can see Russia — from an island she has never been to.

After that ‘endorsement’, Obama might work hard at keeping Bill Clinton off the campaign trail. I bet Obama expected more after he crawled to New York to pay homage to Clinton last week. It sounds like Bill is still angry Obama played the race card on him. Can’t say I blame him.

Earmarks, special interest money- who cares about the dirt being thrown by either side because there are no innocents in this group of four. If I don’t like the influence of special interest money on candidates then I guess I won’t be voting. Obama declined taking public funding, which part of the purpose of such is to limit the influence of special interests. Biden has been in the bag of credit card companies. McCain takes more money in oil than Obama and Obama takes more money from Wall Street then McCain. Palin is just like the rest with taking earmarks- no different then Obama. The only one’s who have an actual record though of standing up to special interests are McCain and Palin though.
The rest of it is just moot because they are all guilty of doing the same thing.

Hmmm. It’s apparent the Clintons REALLY don’t like losing and it looks like they know how to carry a grudge. Disappointing to say the least. Their “support” of Obama is obviously lukewarm. If Obama loses this election they will have effectively shot themselves in the foot, at least as far as Hillary Clinton running again is concerned. Politics sometimes, often, sucks.

But now that the Clintons are not in the White House and bring another scandal to the American people he can’t see beyond himself. He is a corrupt politician him. How dare you. Baraka is playing the GAME. Bill and Hillary taught him well for 30 plus years. Step back and Step down. We don’t need Bill’s lukewarm endorsement.

You can tell Bill Clinton is holding a grudge. And he can hold onto that grudge, but it won’t help his wife, especially if she decides to run. Hillary would be lucky to get 10% of the black vote. Sometimes people really do get tired of being slapped and kicked. So turn the other cheek is a myth.

WHO thinks Palin is ready to be Pres. ? really? She is an example of what is WRONG with America today! Self-serving, vengeful, regressive, repressive, power hungry LIAR! and yet…off he goes saying good things about a woman who is not fit to shine his wife’s shoes. He knows that, we all know that.

1. They both pretty much said that at the convention….We like McCain…he’s a friend….yadda yadda yadda….but not the right one for prez…yadda. Even Biden said something like this.
2. He said we have to put things aside for the next couple of years…I guess that means until Clinton 2012 kicks off!
3. I do not blame Clinton for being mad at Obama. He made good with him at the convention, but Obama never talked about his record. He should mention his civil rights record – in terms of the Justices he appointed to the SCT, appointing Deval Patrick as AG for Civil Rights, saving affirmative action from rightwing attacks, and prosecuting more civil rights violations than probably all three of the Bush administrations combined.

The truth is a race issue. The fact that Barack is a man of color has shocked and blown the racist mind. Hillary did everything she could to win the nominee but she did not so GET OVER IT. As far as Bill, I do agree that he did some good for the US, but let the record show that he is a big time womanizer and committed adultery while in the highest office. So don’t act like he was great. I also don’t believe that Barack needs the Clinton, let the record show in the polls. Palin came out and yes I even got scared but now that Barack is leading back in the polls we should win.

Having said that – it is not racist for people not to support Obama. I don’t and I’m black. I think he is a loser who manipulates race to get attention for himself, but will drop race when it looks like a liability . He’s a joke.

Moonbat: “Traitor! After all of the support we have given to Bill Clinton! We stood by his side ever since he began running for President in 1991, and for him to now, in return, show luke warm support for our candidate is traitorous! Shame on you Bill Clinton!” and Rodney (only one of several “special” posts): “PORKY PORK BUTT PIG PORKER! OBAMA/BIDEN ’08.”
Apparently, in Obamaland you are not allowed to have doubts about Obama – although Pres. Clinton said several times he believes Obama will win the election. Shame on Pres. Clinton – how dare he react adversely to someone who’s greatest claim to fame is writing two books about himself and running for office and who called both Clintons racists.
As for Rodney – well, read his posts for yourself. If Rodney is an example of a “typical” Obama supporter, then God help us if Obama gets elected. P.S. Rodney – before you make fun of other peoples’ intelligence, maybe you should learn to spell.

You people are laughable.
McCain said the following:
“In an interview with CBS Evening News anchor Katie Couric Saturday at his home in Sedona, Ariz., presumptive GOP nominee John McCain had kind words for Sen. Joe Biden, who last night was named presumptive Democratic nominee Barack Obama’s running mate.
“I think he’s a good selection,” McCain told Couric of Biden. “Joe and I have been friends for many, many years, and we know each other very well, and so I think he’s made a very wise selection.”…..
“I know that Joe will campaign well for Senator Obama, and so I think he’s going to be very formidable,” McCain added. “Obviously, Joe and I have been on different philosophical sides, but we have been – I consider him a good friend and good man.”

Forget it, Clintons. After your performances in the primary and general campaigns this year, you’ve lost the base of the Party. If Obama loses, Hillary won’t have a chance after this election season behavior. And, Obama’s camp never called WJC a racist, but the media did call him out on his race baiting. WJC didn’t respect the Office when he had it and he diminishes it now. As an independent, I’m so glad that the Democrats gave us an alternative to a Clinton.

Rodney: I think down deep inside Bill Clinton wants to see his own race in the white house. There are states that are like that and Obama will find out. Bill Clinton doesn’t want to show it but there are numberous of white voters that will vote for their own race. And I don’t blame them. After all aren’t the blacks voting for Obama? This could turn out to be a race issue in several states making Obama lose the election.

I think Bill Clinton gave the hint to voters to vote for McCain. The Clinton’s do not like Obama. Hillary is just campaigning because if she runs for the senate again she needs the democrats votes. Of course this generation of druggers and boozers like Obama feel at home with Obama. After all, he is in the same category.

Good for Pres. Clinton. He will always be a Democrat but let’s face it – he’s a brilliant political mind, and I can’t believe he or Hillary think Obama is the best choice, Democrat or no. It’s funny how Obama and his supporters literally cut the Clintons to shreds during the primaries, calling them liars, racists – well, kind of like many of the Obama supporters’ posts on this blog – and then you expect them to just gussteppe and support this man, no matter what?! Really?
Sorry, some of us put our personal integrity, our love for our country and our hope for a better future before party politics. We don’t need a “historical” candidate, we need the right candidate. We don’t need a black man, or a woman, or someone with pink polkadots – we need someone who will really try to reach across the aisle to find solutions, not to point fingers. Those of you who support Obama who resort to the name calling and the nastiness, your candidate and many of his associates prove every day Obama is NOT the candidate who will do that.

Let me go on record to say how could people vote for a former drug and boozer, anti american, racist and white hating candidate to become president of this country. I thinks its because they don’t care about this country like Obama doesn’t. Michelle Obama: I am just starting to like America now. What took her so long? I already know. Michelle belonged to a racist organization at one time that’s why they joined Wright’s church. They felt right at home there, even baptized their daughter’s there. Real american’s.

Wouldn”t it be nice if those attacking Palin for requesting earmarks were as open to investigating Obama’s earmarks as well as Biden’s. I am interested in the Quid Pro Quo about the earmark for one million dollars given to Michelle Oboma’s employer immediatly after she was promoted and given a 150% raise to over $300 000 a year then she has the nerve to tell us in her speech at the DNC that she “elected” to take a job with a “non-profit” ( most all hospitals are NP) rather than a high powered law firm. Talk about Hypocrisy!!!

Good God, what do you want him to do — kiss Obama’s feet????

How the economic-political curve ball will break after Election Day sending some of us to the poor house and some of us to the concentration camp we will explain in intellectual terms so as to not have the requisite panic needed to do something about it be dismissed as sheer insanity or the words of juvenile spammers. Our great sense of fear and a dire need to act in a dramatic fashion to elect Barack Obama and avoid a complete totalitarian takeover of government by the conservatives is contained within a broader thesis that develops our ideas from a firm scientific basis as THE EVOLUTION OF INFORMATION on http://www.matrix-evolutions.com.

Those who call Bill Clinton traitors are real the traitors to our democracy, and hence to our country. Bill Clinton is a smart man, and he knows what he’s talking about. If you can’t see his intellect and his intelligence, at least you should show some respect. Apparently you are willingly brainwashed by the ONE’s smooth talk, that’s your own business, but don’t expect others to be such a fool…Bill Clinton talks what he thinks, which is much more than you can expect from the ONE.

Posted by: ycgmae | September 18, 2008, 7:48 pm 7:48 pm

So Palin sought earmarks as mayor of Wasilla? So what? So does every mayor in America. If you were mayor of a town and wanted to build a bridge or road, wouldn’t you want to make a case to the Feds (as well as your own Governor) that it wouldhave a benefical economic impact to a particular industry or tourism? This is done every single day in thousands of towns in America. It is silly to give Plain grief for this. And she also has not denounced “earmarks”. What McCain-Palin want is to make those earmarks PUBLIC–every single one.
By contrast Obama does not want people to know that one month after he was sworn into the Senate, Michelle’s employer, University of Chicago Hospitals, TRIPLED her salary to $330,000 (I’m sure we all get our salary tripled all the time, right?) And only months later, Obama put in an earmark for $1 million to the hospital to build a new pavilion.
So Obama has absolutely no credibility on this issue.

Traci, anybody who thinks that Bill Clinton is still a brilliant political mind may not know what brilliance is.

Yet, Obama’s campaign sent that quickly around the web. The official campaign! they either believed it or wanted others to believe it….As for the racism, it’s already been documented that his team had talking points on how to link Clinton with racism.

If Obama wins, one event will happen right away. He will impose the Fairness Doctrine, which will effectively shut down all of political talk radio. Since the conservative shows are much more successful than those on the left, it will affect the right much more. The doctrine not only will require every commercial radio station to provide equal time to right and left, it will also require each stations board of directors to be POLITICALLY DIVERSE!! No station will be able to afford the loss of advertising from shows on left, which will force stations to shut down All of political talk radio!

I knew Bill could never give full support to Obama and once again he made it very clear in his comments.
It is nice to see some of the more moderate Democrats join the McCain/Palin ticket. I am a moderate Independent that voted for Hillary and still think she should be the nominee. Instead the radical left took over the Democrat party and chose Obama. I believe they will reap what they sow. I have never seen this party so divided and in the end it will result in a McCain win.
I am expecting to see more prominent Democrats join the McCain ticket to take our country back from socialism and bad polities (does Obama have any policies yet?).

If Obama/Biden lose, millions of Democrats will remember this Clinton crap and make both pay dearly for it. McCain a “great” man?

I know for you it’s harder to give up than sex with anything that walks; But if you truly care about her chances to take the White House, you will be bound and gagged, locked away in a dungeon from the day she announces until the day that the votes are counted.

“I think he’s a good selection,” McCain told Couric of Biden. “Joe and I have been friends for many, many years, and we know each other very well, and so I think he’s made a very wise selection.”…..
“I know that Joe will campaign well for Senator Obama, and so I think he’s going to be very formidable,” McCain added. “Obviously, Joe and I have been on different philosophical sides, but we have been – I consider him a good friend and good man.”

I think the Clinton’s are in “wait and see” mode. Ultimately he wants Hillary to be President. It would be a lot easier in 4 years against McCain than running against Obama in another primary or after a potentially disasterous administration in 8 years or longer. It is in their best interest for McCain to win while keeping the base happy with a soft endorsement.
I do believe, however, this shows McCain’s appeal across party lines. While the party hardliners and of course the media paint him as evil, outside the course of an election he is well received by both sides.
Obama is much more divisive than he would have you believe. He never has crossed party lines, taylors his message to whatever group he is talking to, and makes decisions based on polls rather than principle. He is scary – at least Hillary was well known and most of her skeletons were already out of the closet.

This discussion shows how lame the Democrats are as political strategists. All candidates offer some pleasantries about the opposing side. This is good manners. It makes you look gracious and not evil and spiteful. That’s all Bill is doing. McCain did the same. He even aired a commercial congratulating Obama when he accepted the nomination. But you didn’t see Repubs foaming at the mouth over this. No – because they know more about politics than the whiny Daily Koolaid and Obamingtonpost crowds. Grow up!

“By contrast Obama does not want people to know that one month after he was sworn into the Senate, Michelle’s employer, University of Chicago Hospitals, TRIPLED her salary to $330,000 (I’m sure we all get our salary tripled all the time, right?) And only months later, Obama put in an earmark for $1 million to the hospital to build a new pavilion.”
It’s NOT the earmarks that are dirty.
It’s the PORK…..like the kickback shown above and the $120,000 from Fanny and Freddy,
Was his $15,000,000 earmark for his erstwhile church used as a “pay off” for Jeremiah….. who received a retirement check for $10,000,000 plus a multi-million dollar mini-mansion .
And knowing how money clings to Barack, it certainly seems suspicious to some….
And speaking of money, why couldn’t he have used some of his campaign funds to help those in need during these economically hard times rather than using it all to show off his big ears>
It would have provided some good publicity for him….. and, frankly he needs all he can get!
MCCAIN AND PALIN

There are college graduates that didn’t involve themselves heavy in drugs and booze like he did. Educated? Where? He is so educated he got himself involved with wheeler’s and dealer’s abd Ayer’s the anti-american bomber. True American’s do not become anti-american hating whites.

Mariann, Obama’s mother was a white american, his father a black african.
He is truly an african american!
Most people that fall into that category of their parents identify as african american because that is also what society identifies them as, african american, or black.
I know plenty of people with black and white parents. The United States identifies those individuals, with brown skin, as black, not hispanic, and definitely not mulatto.

Jackie: You are so right. Obama never did have any plans because he doesn’t have the abilities to know how to make them. If elected, Biden will be running the country and Obama will be standing in back of him just listening. Biden wouldn’t dare let Obama make a speech unless Obama had one of RFK’s that he has been using all along. So, it would be president Biden and VP Obama in reality.

“On a day when Obama sought to convince voters that he’s best able to handle the economic crisis, the former president said it was his wife, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-NY, who gave today ‘the most detailed position.’”
That is the most patently dishonest characterization of what Clinton said that I can possibly image. What Clinton actually said was that his wife had given “the most detailed position I’ve seen on what SHE felt we ought to do on the finance crisis.”
That’s a HUGE difference, and you know it, you dishonest jerk.

O.k. here goes, I went to target last evening for a few things, as I was waiting in line to check out there was a family at least I assume a family already checking out. These people had 3 carts loaded to the brim with everything under the sun, diapers, formula, clothes, food etc…There was an ever growing line behind them so they were pulled off to the side so others could check out. When it was my turn I heard the manager telling them it would be a few more minutes before they were done, needless to say they started grumbling, so the manager sent them over to the food counter, all six of them, she gave them food vouchers and told them to get whatever they wanted while they waited. Now me and another girl at this point were seething and the cashier was telling us they had to wait until all of their GOVERNMENT VOUCHERS went through before they could leave with all their FREE GOODIES. I was so P—ED off that I went over to the food counter just to see what else my TAX dollars were paying for. I literally stood there for 25 minutes while they ordered pop, chips, hot dogs and pizza and if they were under the target given food voucher amount they would start all over again so they could use every last penny of it. The poor cashier at the food bar literally changed their food orders 27 times, I thought she was going to have a stroke. When they finally wrapped up their free food fiasco, I noticed something in one of the woman’s hands, it was a time magazine with a picture of OBAMA on the cover. Six employees brought to the food area all of their FREE PURCHASES and offered to load them in their car for them, wow 750.00 worth of free stuff and they had a CAR…OUR HARD EARNED TAX DOLLARS AT WORK. I was so F==KING mad I went to see the manager and he told me it goes on everyday! Think how much worse it would be with Obama as president, they would OWN target then.

Attention Hillary Voters:
Vote for Obama and you will have DESTROYED Hillary’s chance at becoming President!!
Obama has already destroyed Hillary’s chances for this time around. He couldn’t even do her the honor of making her VP.
Consider this:
If you elect Obama for 2008 , Hillary CAN’T RUN IN 2012!! The incumbent always runs for their party in reelection.
Hillary will then be 69 when she gets a chance to run as democrat.
Then people will call her old(like they do McCain who is 72) and she
will NEVER become President.
Reagan was 69 when he got elected but he wasn’t trying to break the glass ceiling at the same time.
So if you care at all about Hillary, you will VOTE AGAINST Obama this time around. Plus, you will break the glass ceiling and Hillary WILL BE THERE in 2012!!
Think about it!! It makes sense!!
If you support Hillary, YOU MUST VOTE AGAINST OBAMA!!!
Go McCain / Palin 2008!! GO HILLARY 2012!!!

Let’s see. McCain is a warmonger. That’s all he knows, really, We’ve had, what, 5 years of a useless pointless war that has cost about one trillion dollars. How many trillions do we have laying around? How many more useless pointless wars does America really need to fight? We see our economy going down the drain and yet people say we need more Republicans. People need to understand that Republicans favor the rich, not the ordinary citizen. The evidence is all around you, if you will only look. They fight these pointless wars to drain the treasury so that the people will be powerless against the rich elite who are so willing to rule on the message of war and waste our tax dollars on nothing.

I will vote for Obama/Biden because they and the Dem platform best match my beliefs about what this country needs. I believe Biden is an excellent choice for being a “heartbeat away from the President.” He has experience and an honest track record.
I will not vote for McCain/Palin because they and the Rep platform are the worst for any American making less than $500,00/yr. McCain is already failing mentally and physically and Palin could very likely be the President. She parrotts her standard speech even after admitting the lies in it. We haven’t had a Vice President with her lack of credentials since Spiro Agnew – and if you don’t remember him, Look it up!
The race bit is real. But not because Obama brings it up. It is real in the minds of those who would not vote for God Almighty if GA were black. And in the minds of the Rep talkers who keep the topic going.
I hope some of the bloggers before me here decide to get a real life once this campaign is over.

Say what, “McCain’s a great man.” McCain is a clone of President Bush right down to his style of raising funds for his campaign. McCain received $284,610 from Merrill Lynch making him the top recipient in 2008. McCain received $1,394,033 from the Oil & Gas industry, again the top recipient; in 2004 Bush received $2,674,225 as the top recipient. McCain received $133,475 from Mortgage Brokers in 2008; Bush received $867,169. Let us not forget about Enron who supported the GOP 70% of the time with funding and the NRA who supports the GOP 82% of the time. McCain/Bush were in bed with Enron, Oil/Gas corporations, Mortgage Bankers/Brokers and allowed Osama Bin Laden’s family to secretly board a plane and leave the USA right after 9/11. McCain lost sight of our real issue and problem…the same one Former President Clinton informed President Bush about before leaving office. President Bush did nothing and 9/11 happen. McCain does not have the vision for all Americans and will not put our “country first” if his cronies on the Hill and within the industries he has gone to bed with warn him otherwise! Nice try Former President Clinton, but I’m not buying the “McCain is a great Man” remark. When you hit the trail for Obama, be sure your words are in good taste!

Bill Clinton is for Bill Clinton and he always will be. He can’t stand the thought of passing the baton to another Democratic President if its not going to be his wife – which if she won of course it would be all because he taught her everything she knows. Who cares if America is going to hell and people are losing jobs, don’t have health care, losing their investments – all he does is continue to step in and muddle the water and pull attention to him and his wife by these luke warm at best comments. You better hope your wife never, ever runs for president – because we will not support her just like you are not supporting Obama now.

Hillary will then be 69 when she gets a chance to run as democrat.
Then people will call her old(like they do McCain who is 72) and she
will NEVER become President.
Reagan was 69 when he got elected but he wasn’t trying to break the glass ceiling at the same time.
So if you care at all about Hillary, you will VOTE AGAINST Obama this time around. Plus, you will break the glass ceiling and Hillary WILL BE THERE in 2012!!
Think about it!! It makes sense!!
If you support Hillary, YOU MUST VOTE AGAINST OBAMA!!!
Go McCain / Palin 2008!! GO HILLARY 2012!!!

Sorry to all you Libs, but Former President Clinton knows Obama is why over his head. Obama knows it too, that is why Obama spent the last few weeks trying gor say he was as experienced as Palin. Obama is no where
near the as experienced, understanding and informed as either McCain or Palin.
Obama has no clue. He hopes all of his advisors tell him right. He has now
been ordered to use a tele-prompter almost all of the time because of his lack of understanding. He is just an average tax and spenf liberal offering to give money to people so he can get elected. He has no real plans but by golly he is not George Bush and by the way he will give 40 % of Americans cash
if he gets elected.
Clinton is trying to be the good little democrat, but knows Obama is a terrible choice.

I have always liked Bill Clinton. But when placed between a rock and the DNC and having to say he likes BHO is something he probably can’t stomach. I have voted Dem in most elections since Kennedy. BUT I will not vote for a man to allows his children to be filled with racist, anti-American rants in church for their entire life let alone that he sat in the pew for 20 years and called him a great mentor. Lets not mention Reziko, Ayers, Flegler. Apparently the list goes on. This man is not a patriot and I want no less than that in MY white house.

Obama will win, it does not matter what Bill Clinton says. Bill Clinton is just a past story, he is outdate and he is not the future any more.

I am a middle age white female. I am an Independent. My husband usually votes Republican. This election, my husband, my grown children, and I fully intend to vote for Obama/Biden.
I have noticed that many people get pretty petty and ridiculous in what they “say” on this site. Don’t they realize that the person they are supporting just looks as clownish as they do BECAUSE of the stupid things they are saying? They are their own worst enemies, shooting themselves AND their candidates “in the foot.” Keep it up!
You just make Obama look even better to those of us who actually think about the effects of eight years of Republican leadership: the outrageous national debt, the senseless war in Iraq that has consumed more than 200,000 civilian and soldiers’ lives while destroying that country, the current economic crisis in this country, the outrageous cost of health care and insurance in this country, and the blatant disregard for the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

I don’t understand why the left-wing media abandoned the Clinton’s. I mean all you heard from them was Hillary was a shoe-in. What happened with Chris Matthews and George Stephanopolous? They glowed when they spoke of her. Why all the hatred from the people who claimed to love her? When Obama came into the picture they could barely say her name without gagging. I do feel for her and it’s obvious she was stabbed in the back. So many left-sided bloggers are calling Obama a modern day Messiah because he was a community organizer. Well wouldn’t the press be considered a Judas to Hillary?

Posted by: Fox Muldor | September 18, 2008, 9:18 pm 9:18 pm

I have always thought that Bill and Hillary should actively campaign against Obama. Obama does not represent the people. He represents the power elite. Hillary was the only major geniune progressive in the Democratic race. It’s time to stop reflexively supporting the Democratic Party. When they make the wrong choice, the people shouldn’t make another wrong choice by following the Democrats. Vote for the true progressive in the race. Vote for Ralph Nader.

Barack Obama – Hope and Change?
While in battle with Hillary, he promises he will pull 2 brigades from Iraq per month… and then he wins the nomination and has flip-flopped.
While working for Chicago, he votes to help out his contractor slum-lord friend get money breaks, and then takes advantage of buying a mansion at discount price with the help of Rezko. Meanwhile Rezko “can’t afford” to pay the electric bills for his slums and the poor souls who inhabit them. Rezko went to prison, B.O. runs for President?
While worshipping, idolizing, and building a network of key political contacts for political visibility at the church of g*d-d**n america, B.O. finally throws the Pastor Wright under the bus, saying that HE(Wright) changed his message!!
Good buddy Kilpatrick, is headed for jail currently.. but that didn’t stop B.O. from personally endorsing him as a “bright” (good-ole-boy) candidate. Meanwhile authorities are investigating to see whether the “sudden shooting death” of a single-mother stripper that performed at Kilpatrick’s “denied-existence” mayor’s mansion party was a victim of contract killing.
flip flop, promise promise, flip-flop, three strikes you’re out.
It’s a question of character, and something stinks badly about candidate B.O.
Each of us can only be measured by our accomplishments and actions. Consider how Mr. McCain measures up compared to Mr. Obama on these merits.

Those National Polls that now have Obama ahead by 4 or 5 points really mean nothing during the general election.
What ought to be causing trauma in the Obama campaign are the new numbers from all of those midwestern states that they thought they had in the bag: Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania are now all either tied or within the margin of error, and this is since the big Wall Street meltdown.
Too much Hollywood makes Barack a dull boy, and makes those clinging to their guns and religion folks that much more bitter………………

Just because Bill was honest about his feelings for Senator McCain doesnot mean that he disrepected Senator Obama. What do you people want friends not to be friends because of this election. Why so much division not only in the party but also in friendships. Maybe if Obama had acknowledged the great things that Bill did in the 90′s instead of acknowledging the things Ronald Reagan accomplished Bill would be more supportive. Maybe if Obama and the democratic party had treated his wife with respect he would be more involved and maybe if the race card had been left out of the election, Bill would be on his side completely;some wounds do not heal, you can forgive but you don’t forget. England is a socialistic country ask someone from there how much tax they pay to have universal insurance and how long it takes to get certain medical services. In a socialistic government, the government controls all. Look before you leap!

Are we really governed and reported to by idiots? They keep saying that the Obama plan will give tax cuts to the middle class, but they provide an investment penalty, and they penalize small business.
What good is the tax cut if you have no income because there are no jobs? Obama keeps promoting Big Business and Big Government and we know scientifically that they are prone to cascade failures that can destruct the entire network on which they are based. We also know scientifically that networks such as living organism favor distributed adaptable networks because they are more robust and rarely suffer catastrophic failure.
Why is no one shouting from the roof tops the emperor has no clothes?
They are treating middle class Americans as if they are stupid, and are incapable of understanding the truth. What is more disturbing is that the media uses the authority principle to sell Obama and these authorities which have a stake in the status-quoi feed the same bull and sell Americans down the river.
Media wake up and do the right things by the country. Networks have certain laws that govern them. Look up Lazlo Barabasi and ask him about the dangers of centralized systems!
There is a scientific basis for why capitalism is superior to socialism, and why we need small distributed government versus big government. Centralized systems are useful only in generating standards.
Obama don’t tell me you are for the middle class, when you are just selling them into indentured servitude to big corporations! Show me how you will bring wealth creation to the middle class.

It was on the internet. And there could be more. Even the governor Kathleen made that remark. Sometimes when asked people say they are going to vote for Obama but won’t when it comes to the general election. They don’t want to be call a racist. I am not voting for Obama and I personally don’t care what they call me. People should stop being afraid to say anything. I agree with Bill Clinton. He said the right thing. He knows that Obama is dumb but he doesn’t want to admit. He has to made a fake showing but the Clinton’s don’t like Obama. Hillary is a fool and cancelling out because of Palin makes it look like she is jealous of her.

Compare Bill Clinton’s left-handed, back-handed, and sideways comments directed toward Obama in this story with the outright love fest Romney, Giulianni, and Huckabee had for McCain in their republican convention speeches.
Former Romney, Giulianni, and Huckabee supporters have absolutely no doubt their former candidates support McCain unequivocally.
Bill Clinton’s comments here make me believe that a significant, perhaps election-tilting number of those 18 million primary votes for Hillary won’t be there for Obama in November.
I also got the impression that Bill Clinton thinks of Obama as a ‘fad’ that will pass if Obama loses the election, and both Clintons are positioning themselves for that event.
And why praise Bill Clinton anyways as being so astute politically? He’s a Machiavellian out for himself. Bet you could wake him up from the midst of a deep sleep and half awake he’d still spin things in his favor — even if you just asked him what his favorite color was.
Wow, it must be tough for Obama supporters. Look at all the hyenas, wolves, and snakes they must contend with in their own party.

Of course, there are many who really like a good war, even if it was started on false information and continues with false information. It takes a lot to stand up to the War Mongers.

Hillary will then be 69 when she gets a chance to run as democrat.

Kennedy and McCain are good friends and on and on. And I should fear a McCain presidency? McCain gets along with the Democrats in the Senate better then Obama does. McCain gets along better with the Democrats then he does the Republicans. McCain will have a bi-partisan cabinet and he will work bi-partisan. I’m not a Republican and I don’t agree with all McCain’s positions nor do I like some of his bellicose rhetoric at times- but I certainly do not fear a McCain presidency either.

I agree about future plans for attacks, my point here is that has not been attempted again under the Bush Adminstration on American soil,yes we lost so many lives but so did the enemy; they are waiting for the next president and if that person is not strong on foreign policy and national security that is a great weakness. Financially we are facing some loopholes but in my opinion the foundation for the economy is still somewhat stable. We need someone who will fix the things that are broken and the economy will rebound. Experience more so than change, change will come automatically regardless of who wins the election because the nominees are different in their own ways from the current keeper of the nation. Just my opinion.

I believe Hillary is jealous of Palin because Hillary wasn’t picked as Obama’s running mate. By the way Obama had someone else in mind previously and that man said he wasn’t interested. Obama did not want Hillary Clinton so I don’t see why Hillary’s supporters would support Obama. After all he did doublecross Hillary for Biden. I don’t blame Bill for his praise. Good for him. He knows what Obama did to Hillary with the superdelegates along with Nancy Pelosi.

Mr. Obama was not the legitimate vote winning candidate of the Democratic Party,and that did not even include the cheating in the caucus states by the Obama people. Perhaps THIS is WHY Mr. Obama cannot bring home the points needed. We have said right along that Mr. Obama cannot do it without Hillary and that Mr. Obama did NOT carry any of the states that are important in a general election. Hillary was the TRUE legitimate winner of the votes.
Hillary & Bill Clinton are the true patriots in this country. They are campaigning for him even after all the NASTINESS by his people and him.
If Mr. Obama truly cared about his country, he would step aside and let the TRUE LEGITIMATE candidate with 18+ million historic votes make the run to the White House. There is where you would see a shoo-in!!!!, bar none!
By the way, all you Obama Clinton haters must be too young to remember (or don’t read history books!) regarding the HISTORIC ECONOMIC GAINS during Bill Clintons two terms! It was called a SURPLUS!!!!!!

I think Bill clinton is keeping the Democratic Party happy while he subtly lets the American people know that he has great regard for McCain/Palin ticket.
Perhaps he is helping guarantee Hillary’s run in 2012.
He obviously knows that Obama is inexperienced and is sly enough to keep him happy.

Posted by: SF | September 18, 2008, 10:20 pm 10:20 pm

george: Your right. He used the speeches of RFK from a book that was given to him by a friend. He also studied the speeches of MLK for a long time. Obama’s desire was to become the president. He played dirty pool to the woman running against him. The story was on the TV. She never ran for office again. He ruined her. He was 130 absent from the senate because he was busy reading book on JFK,RFK and MLK to campaign for president. Obama was never happy being a senator, he wants power and he will dictate because remember he is half Kenyan and that county has a dictator. Mrs. De Rothchild endorsed McCain, she was a Hillary supporter but she does not like Obama and she said she doesn’t trust him. Donald Trump just endorsed McCain. I believe that Biden will be telling Obama what to say and what not to say because Obama is not as smart as he has people believing. He only knows what his advisors is telling him.

Posted by: Mariann Pepitone | September 18, 2008, 10:22 pm 10:22 pm

Everyone keeps talking about how Obama might loose because of his “race”. Well although that may come into play, I am quite sure there are alot of Black candidates who would be supported by most. Opra, Colin Powell or Condilessa Rice are all beloved my most Americans. Obama’s real problem is the fact that both his father and step father were Muslims! Seven years after 911 many people are not ready to bring a person with Muslim connections into the White House.
On a second note, Obama is not any Black, but rather someone who’s paster for decades is Anti-American and Anti-White.
These are the reasons many people much prefer Mccain-Pailin who are solid Americans we can trust!

“Meanwhile, Palin’s soon to be son-in-law is all over the internet with drugs and booze. She’s parading her slut daughter around like it’s something to be proud of.”
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
What a bunch of B O stinkers you have here. It’s ok to trash the families of other candidates… just not B O’s.
Michelle is the man in that family! She is bigger in every way than B O!!
Her background shows her to have gotten into school only by virtue of the preferential treatment afforded minority groups.
Thanks to affirmative action, her test scores were raised sufficiently so that she could enroll.
Once there, everyone hated her for the mean spirited turd that she is.
In fact, aside from a few women of color, she was ignored by most of her classmates because of her long-term sulks…. and her B O!
When Michelle got her job with the University of Illinois, she never questioned her raise being tripled in one year…. never connected it with the earmark of $1,000,000 promised to her employer by B O!
There are many ways to trash the family of a candidate…….. I will desist for the moment.
But bear in mind, the next time Cindy McCain or the Palin kids are trashed by B O’s super smearers…. I will come back and trash B O’s Michelle….
and I will NOT provide the deodorizer to put out the fire!

Bill Clinton has never been racist. Palin is not the only one who has changed her mind on how she wants to do things. Why is it okay for us to change our minds, but when a politician decides that they are doing something different than they should they can’t change their minds without being called a flip/flopper!!! Bill Clinton is just being honest, he knows what American People want, and Obama is not it!!!

Palin: “Palin-McCain ticket”-(seems she forgot that McCain is the one running for the presidency and not her.
McCain: “As president I would fire the SEC chairman”- Presidents don’t ‘fire’ the chairmen of the SEC. McCain better take a refresher on gov’t policies.
Palin: “Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac had “gotten too big and too expensive to the taxpayers.”- Uh, the companies aren’t taxpayer funded but operate as private companies.
McCain has no idea who the President of Spain is (Zapatero), or which continent it’s on (Europe).
If McCain and Palin are a complete embarrassment to the U.S.A now, what the hell will it be like IF they are elected. The american people are way to smart to fall for this Laurel & Hardy couple. Hey, they could always take their act on the road….just not the ‘road’ to the WH.
Obama at least has 11 yrs of gov’t experience to which that experience has proven that he is THE most qualified to this country out of its mess the republicans have created.
If the conservatives didn’t have FOX news, they wouldn’t have anything to spew on messageboards.
Do you ever notice the conservatives never comment about their candidates strong points – only fabricated ones about their opponent? Guess the only strengths are shown in the lack of knowledge on history.

Obama’s democrats broke into Palin’s E-mail account.
Palin Email Hacker is Son of Democrat Tennessee State Senator
David Kernell, a college student has been positively identified as the perp who hacked Sarah Palin’s Yahoo account.
State Rep. Mike Kernell said today that he was aware of Internet rumors about his son being the subject of speculation that he accessed the personal e-mail of vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
Asked whether he or his son, a student at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville, had been contacted by authorities investigating the break-in of Palin’s account, he responded:
“Me, no.”
As far as his 20-year-old son, David, he said: “I can’t say. That doesn’t mean he has or hasn’t (been contacted by investigators.”
Kernell, D-Memphis, cited the father-son relationship.
He said he had talked to his son today, but that he talks to his son regularly.
He declined further comment.

TJ, THE CLITONITE:
We know that you can change your ID at any time, and did.
McCain has never been a ‘great man’ in any sense. He served in Vietnam, as did ca. 2,500,000 others. His service there was nothing out of the ordinary (Getting shot down is not a commendable thing to do.)
As for his polictical career, it is built on leaving his wife for a woman whose rich father would boost McCain onto the political stage. (Maybe that is why Bill thinks McCain is ‘a great man.’)

Obama a socialist? Do you even know what socialism is? Is Obama trying to make the sale and distribution of goods a state entity? Raising taxes (on 5% of income tax payers) is not socialism.

Does aging Bill Clinton thinks Sarah Palin? What a pig. I guess he and Hillary forgot they were going to do everything to support Obama. They blackmailed him into giving them center stage at Dem convention and Hillary has since rolled over and let Palin say Obama must regret not choosing Hillary. SHe let the GOP paint her as the dissed rejected candidate who SHOULD have been his VP. When it would not have been a prudent move for her. I’ve lost respect for her. She was divisive before and she is now. She has barely stood up to Palin. What is this a sisterhood or a campaign? Palin was quoted as saying “So, racial slur, beat the b&tch.” Yeah, great gal our Sarah Palin. And Hillary has disappeared instead of telling Palin she’s no Hillary. Please.
The Clintons will NEVER, EVER again get my vote. NONE of them except maybe Chelsea – the only one with class.
Bill is a bitter, power hungry former President who wants to rule this country again. He sneers when talking about the race. The anger/rage is palpable. He was a liability to Hillary during the race and he is now. And he is no friend to the Democrats. It’s the Bill and Hillary show: Billary.

Hillary could have stopped this rediculous Palin train before it left the station, by making an appearance, looking into the cameras, and saying four words: “I don’t think so.”
So now we have an anti-feminist female VP candidate who is getting rave reviews despite the fact that her positions on issues reveal her to be a radical right-wing nut-job.
And Hillary will not come out and “tell it like it is” and take Palin down a notch for the GOOD OF THE COUNTRY!? I’m a lifelong democrat, but I’ll never vote for her, no matter who she runs against. Anyone who puts personal ambition before the welfare of the nation doesn’t deserve our support.

Posted by: Tim | September 19, 2008, 12:04 am 12:04 am

Obama *had* to pick Biden to add experience to the ticket.
McCain didn’t have to pick anyone to do that. He already has experience.
Obama *could* have picked Hillary, but didn’t want a WOMAN to overshadow him.
McCain has no problem being around strong women. His wife is a multimillionaire who makes multimillion dollar decisions.
Whether he chose Palin out of political purpose or just because he respects women and their abilities in politics is potentially irrelevant. What matters is that she is intelligent, capable, hard-working, and a person of integrity.
No person is ready for the office of the president. But Sarah Palin has proven that she can excel when put to the test. I will trust her and vote for her.
In 2012, I will welcome the Hillary vs. Sarah battle for presidency.

Thanks bill for confirming that my vote for mccain is the right one.
As a hillary supporter – i am purely voting for mccain so hillary can and will run again and win in 2012.
i can’t stand obama – so this is easy for me.

Posted by: DavidDurham | September 19, 2008, 12:17 am 12:17 am

We have so many Hillary fans who say they love Palin. Palin’s and Hillary’s beliefs are polar opposites.
Anyone saying they support both Palin and Hillary are either brain dead or lying.

“So now we have an anti-feminist female VP candidate who is getting rave reviews despite the fact that her positions on issues reveal her to be a radical right-wing nut-job.”
Great…now we are back to name-calling. An Anti-Feminist Female huh, how is that. Because she’s Beautiful or she values having a family over having your choice? What makes a women a women.
You know what I think it is..you guys are so jealous of Sarah.
- She’s got a Hunk
- Beautiful Kids
- IS going to be the next VP
- Is Authentic..when she drops the ball, she admits it..that’s called genuine..something rare in polititions these days.
- She’s got Fire
- She’s strong
So what is it about her that makes her “Anti-Feminist”
With your views, the Human race would no longer exist in approx 60 years from now!

Posted by: Will | September 19, 2008, 12:22 am 12:22 am

Jealousy is eating you up! You wish you had her strength and determination don’t you.
Man, how did she get a guy like Todd, it’s not fair…he even stays at home and takes care of the kids so she can be successful…it’s just not fair.
My my my, the issues don’t matter do they. Her foreign policy experience, her views on Choice or Death whatever you want to call it, none of that really matters…she has proved the feminist movement wrong and you are threatened by her very success! She will shatter the ceiling that you folks put on women for over 40 years and kept them enslaved on the Plantation.
She is strong and she is a full Feminist!

Posted by: Will | September 19, 2008, 12:26 am 12:26 am

Bill Clinton has never been one to smear opponents. He’s a lover not a fighter. He likes to kill them with kindness. I agree that Bill is still soar about Hill losing. But, I think he’s angry because the passing of the guard has been handed over to Obama. Obama is the Democratic Party. Sorry Bill. Get Over it!

Posted by: Eva Reyes | September 19, 2008, 12:28 am 12:28 am

Great point Michelle, Glad to see you don’t get hung up on all the rankor. The 0bambi camp slimed Hillary and the Dems betrayed her, the MSM then left her for dead.
Welcome to our nightmare as it’s always that way for the GOP candidate.
This campaign has gotten very nasty…guess the politics of usual are back in full array…so much for Obambi’s promise…typical.

It all comes down to whether or not you would feel comfortable with Ayers and Wright in cabinet level positions, because that is where this is heading. To Barry, Ayers is an esteemed professor and he would be glad to have him as part of his team.

Posted by: Mack | September 19, 2008, 12:38 am 12:38 am

Uh, who is William Ayers? I’m young, we n’ver heard of him before…please enlighten us

Posted by: Will | September 19, 2008, 12:39 am 12:39 am

William Ayers is Obama’s longtime friend and unrepentent terrorist. Obama still has not denounced him.

Posted by: Heather | September 19, 2008, 12:43 am 12:43 am

Let’s deal the race cards to the right players. When Bill ran and was in office, blacks adored him. When Hill first ran, blacks adored her. Then suddenly, there was a black man running. Oops, gotta find a reason to stop adoring Bill and Hill and flock to the black man. Hmmm, what to do, what to do. OK. Accuse Bill and Hill of racism. That’ll do it. That’ll rationalize the betrayal, the disloyalty, the reverse racism. And if anyone challenges us on it, just scream racism louder and longer, hoping they’ll back off. So, Card Players, huff and snort and posture all you like. Bill and Hill don’t owe you, or the democratic party, a thing. And you can never repay what you owe them.

Posted by: Sharon | September 19, 2008, 12:43 am 12:43 am

Thank you Bill for not trying to tear down the characters of McCain and Palin, people can agree to disagree but you do not have to willfully incinerate someones character for a vote. This is Obama’s MO and it is not working for him. This should be a solid democratic year and look at the polls, that is telling in itself, they put an amateur(Obama) to carry out the most important election in my lifetime. What a joke the DNC is and the people that voted for him.

can you say “October Surprise” thats got to be worth more than a 5 pt bump for mccain since thats what Obama got out of negative ads this week!

I was personally offended by the Jessie Jackson comment that Clinton made in South Carolina. His motives were clear then — and they are clear now.

Posted by: Just Me | September 19, 2008, 1:12 am 1:12 am

Notice there are several comments/questions about whether or not to expect the blacks to riot if Bambi loses.
Not all of them will. But enough of them will to make it look like most of them did.
We lived in California for many years and were treated to full scale gun-totin’ riots more than once because the black community didn’t get its way.
And I’m sure someone will accuse me of being racist for pointing this out.

David Durham, the servie to your country alone is extra ordinary and that goes for all of our military troops that are out there everyday, and yes he is a great man, because he put others and his country first at a time when it would have been easy to bail. You people kill me, you can disagree with someone without tearing down their character, that’s why we are so hated in America, there is no shade of grey, everything is so Black and white with you people, McCain is an honarable man and Sarah Palin is a woman that whether you agree with her politics or not is very impressive as a mother of 2. I don’t even know how she does it, it is difficult to handle two kids and everything else and have a high level career, but in her case her career is responsible for the well being of others, her tough decisions could make or break others, it’s easy to dismiss but lets see you have to worry about a budget for a state and worry about whether or not your decision will have grave impact on the lives of families and then come back and talk to me.

Posted by: Kim | September 19, 2008, 1:22 am 1:22 am

Ah, Bill, just come on out and say you support McCain like Donald Trump did tonight. I think he was for Hillary first and switched to McCain. I think Biden likes McCain more than Obama. We all do…so shout it out to the world Bill and Hill….VOTE JOHN SYDNEY McCAIN AND NOT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA!

Speaking of scripts….since Obama made his famous lipstick on a pig comment and rambled on about old fish and newspaper…they have him back to PROMPTER ONLY speeches in front of the hoards again. Can’t risk him blowing it by rambling on, although I AM COUNTING ON THAT AT THE DEBATES, uh, um, ah…..hopefully he keeps the stammer and weighs his words so as not to take a stance.

Joe Biden made racist comments NOT Bill Clinton his comments in SC were completely distorted. Google Biden and racist you will get 615,000 hits he has a history of racism you can see it for yourself.

Wow, who knew Republicans were such fans of the Clintons? And of course the usual suspects repeating untruths about Obama. What do you go from site to site spewing your vitriol and hope that it will stick? The same tired socialist arguments that you used against Bill Clinton and every other Democratic candidate in every other post with continuous mention of Ayres, Wright and Rezko. It’s a shame that you ignore the damage that your party has done to this country and only care about chalking up a win, no matter what. Screw the country, we won. If you’re not outraged that your candidate chose a woman who is ill equipped to be VP, then shame on you. You should spend less time worrying about Obama and more time making sure that your guy is competent.

I CAN’T STAND THE IDEA OF AN INEXPERIENCED, LACKING IN COMPLETE JUDGEMENT WITH THE LIKES OF AYERS, REZKO, AND WRIGHT (and I don’t like his family situation to be quite honest).
McCain’s family history of service to this great country goes back 100 years, actually to General Washington. What can Obama say….Kenyan dad came here for 2 years free education and got Ann Dunham pregnant….not gonna work for me.

Here is my theory. Whenever Bill Clinton has a sense that BO will lose the election, he will praise him. Whenever he starts suspecting the BO might win after all, he will become quite miserly in his praises of BO. The bad news from Clinton’s point of view is that BO’s defeat will set trhe stage for a Palin Presidency. The “bloodbath” within the Democratic Party in the aftermath of a BO defeat will keep HRC out of the White House.

The Saddleback Faith forum was fantastic, and the Bots screamed cheating, when McCain wasn’t in the cone of silence….like he could cheat on answers that realate to his personal life?

John McCain & Sarah Palin have shown Hillary & Bill Clinton more respect than their own Party, the Media & Barack Obama. The only reason they have made any attempt to help the Obama Campaign is to keep their options open. I voted for Bill and Hillary as well – and now I am going to vote for McCain/Palin with a big SMILE on my face!

Obama is not the one!
He’s using all the race cards on everyone and he’s stumbling on his talks every now and than … I cannot vote for a candidate who can’t even speak properly on the trail and town halls.
He’ll lose this elections .. you’ll see … americans can see through Obama Husseins Lies. Suddenly his middle name is left out and just Barrack Obama????
Does that not say somethign about this kind of man you are voting for .. for president?

I am not going to vote for someone who has only been in Washington for 4 years. He can wirte all he wants on his web site for who knows they may not even be true for us to believe!
One thing for sure I know about Mccain
for as long as I can remember and at times may not agree with him on certain things but at least we know the real Mccain is truly for America and for the people. That much is true and facts!
American’s wake up …. facts is facts … we love our country and only the ones who truly care for it has to do what is right for voting the the right person who has fought for us no matter what … COUNTRY COMES FIRST!

Warrenn Buffett, Bill Gates and the CEO of Google all support Obama — the smartest businessmen in the world are all behind Obama because he is the best candidate.
GOP Senator Chuck Hagel says Palin isn’t qualified and doesn’t have proper experience.
And former Republican Susan Eisenhower has endorsed Obama…
http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0809/18/ltm.02.html
CHETRY: What’s your response to democrats who are now throwing their support behind John McCain?
EISENHOWER: Well, I would like to make two points. First of all, I can imagine why Hillary Clinton supporter would support John McCain. They bear no resemblance to each other in terms of policy issues. Let me just say this thing about reaching across party aisles. John McCain never reached in my direction at all.
And yet it was Barack Obama who called me a year and a half ago seeking my expertise in the area of Russia and energy which is my specialty. The truth of the matter is that John McCain reaches across party aisles when he finds somebody who agrees with him. Barack Obama has had, I think, a remarkable capacity to bring people of differing views together. He’s a great synthesizer. And I think he knows where he wants to take this country.
CHETRY: She always said she changed her support because she believes, this is De Rothschild again, that she believes Obama is an elitist. On Tuesday night he attended a Hollywood fundraiser, Barbara Streisand through that where donors paid $28,500 per plate. Does he risk being seen as out of touch with the voters?
EISENHOWER: Well, I don’t know how he could be out of touch from voters. He comes from the humblest of circumstances and I think it’s rather remarkable. He goes to a fundraiser like the one in California and everybody there is going to be paying higher taxes. 90 percent of the American public is not going will not have their tax raised. But people like Barbara Streisand again will pay more taxes.
Listen, I think Barack Obama here is the man to lead us through this crisis, John McCain has been a long time advocate of deregulation and finally the republican party is going have to be held accountable, really for this financial crisis. This is a very, very serious thing and I think we have to stop this name calling because the American people want to know how we’re going to get through this crisis.
CHETRY: And when it comes from that we’re hearing from both candidates talking about more regulation, more checks, more transparency. Essentially they are really talking about trying to do the same thing, what makes you believe Barack Obama is going to be able to do it and John McCain will not?
EISENHOWER: I think we need to put this into perspective. You know what we did actually. We dismantled the safeguards that had been established after the Great Depression. So when we’re talking about regulation, we’re talking about reinstating safe guards that are forbearers understood were critical for bringing about transparency and checks and balances in a system that is by definition, you know, prone towards profit taking and in some cases irrational exuberance. We need to have those checks back in place. We need those safe guards. And the American people are going to suffer from that dismantlement. That’s very clear.
CHETRY: Susan Eisenhower, Obama supporter. Thanks so much for being with us this morning.
EISENHOWER: Thank you.

Forget the “he says, she says” dance that will take place up to election day. We need to ask ourselves bottom line, “Am I financially sound and better off than I was 8 years ago?” If the answer is “yes”, then by all means vote for McCain/Palin to continue your personal wealth and life status. The Bush legacy will continue and you will continue to be enriched beyond your dreams.

It’s you people who betrayed the Clintons. He gave you us 8-years in which his wife also served by his side. He was popular. People liked him. But you dumped both he and his wife for an upstart nobody who can read off of a teleprompter. While Clinton kept a middle course, today’s Democracts are for the most part socialists. Bill Clinton has every right to say, “I never left the party; it was the party who left me.” I couldn’t care less whether the party sinks now. Obama is terrible.

How Bill Clinton could even consider that Hillary will be a candidate in 2012 shows how out of touch he is.
To use this economic crisis to promote McCain so that Hillary has a chance in 2012 shows how stupid he is and shows why people saw him as Hillary’s albatross.
McCain will have one term followed by either Palin and/or Jeb Bush.
She hasn’t a chance.
Bill has suckered himself and just stabbed all of us Democrats in the back including people who worked for him like Volker and Rubin.
Retire already.

I love Bill Clinton. I think he is fair to be lukewarm about Obama. Obama and his wife played the race card and ruined Clinton’s reputation. I wouldn’t give a sh!t about a guy who did that to me. Besides, 98% of blacks are voting for Obama, while 50% of white people are voting for him. Voting for a guy just because he’s black is still racism.

It was the ensuing COVER-UP that killed Nixon! Since Palin is clearly a student and understudy of Nixon, she and McCain should both know that…

Bill did not help his wife during primaries and we all know that his actions have put time and time again Hillary on the defensive.

Hi,
Have you ever heard of aerial hunting? It’s a brutal practice. Wolves are shot from low-flying aircraft or chased to exhaustion, then killed at point-blank range.
Governor Sarah Palin, the Republican nominee for Vice President, promotes this barbaric practice, exploiting a loophole in the Federal Airborne Hunting Act to allow private wolf killers to shoot down wolves using aircraft. To encourage the killing, she even proposed a $150 bounty for the left foreleg of each dead wolf!
We have to get the word out about this! Please watch this powerful new television ad by Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund, and then share it with every wildlife lover you know:

And in the Washington Post, Richard Cohen goes off on McCain, seizing on the Palin pick as a sign of how far gone the candidate is:
McCain has turned ugly. His dishonesty would be unacceptable in any politician, but McCain has always set his own bar higher than most. He has contempt for most of his colleagues for that very reason: They lie. He tells the truth. He internalizes the code of the McCains — his grandfather, his father: both admirals of the shining sea. He serves his country differently, that’s all — but just as honorably. No more, though.

His opportunistic and irresponsible choice of Sarah Palin as his political heir — the person in whose hands he would leave the country — is a form of personal treason, a betrayal of all he once stood for. Palin, no matter what her other attributes, is shockingly unprepared to become president. McCain knows that. He means to win, which is all right; he means to win at all costs, which is not.

Palin: I told the Congress, “Thanks, but no thanks,” on that bridge to nowhere.
This is not the first time Palin has cited her choice to kill the bridge in 2007 as an example of her anti-waste stance. It’s true that she did eventually nix the project. But the bridge was nearly dead already – Congress had removed the earmark, giving the requested money to the state but not marking it for any specific use. Palin unplugged its life support, declaring in 2007 that the funds would not be used for the Gravina bridge.
When she was running for governor, however, Palin expressed a different position. In 2006, the Ketchikan Daily News quoted her expressing optimism and support for the bridge at a Ketchikan campaign stop.
Palin, 2006: “People across the nation struggle with the idea of building a bridge because they’ve been under these misperceptions about the bridge and the purpose,” said Palin, who described the link as the Ketchikan area’s potential for expansion and growth. … Palin said Alaska’s congressional delegation worked hard to obtain funding for the bridge as part of a package deal and that she “would not stand in the way of the progress toward that bridge.”
Palin also answered “yes” to an Anchorage Daily News poll question about whether she would continue to support state funding for the Gravina Island bridge if elected governor. “The window is now,” she wrote, “while our congressional delegation is in a strong position to assist.” It was only after she won the governorship that Palin shifted her position. And even then, it’s inaccurate to say that she “told the Congress ‘thanks, but no thanks.’” Palin accepted non-earmarked money from Congress that could have been used for the bridge if she so desired. That she opted to use it for other state transportation purposes doesn’t qualify as standing up to Congress.
The bridge reversal is not the only matter throwing doubt on Palin’s credentials as a government waste reformer. Watchdog group Taxpayers for Common Sense has reported that the small town of Wasilla, Alaska, which had not previously received significant federal funds, hauled in almost $27 million in earmarks while Palin was mayor. (McCain has explicitly criticized several of the Wasilla earmarks in recent years.) To help obtain these earmarks, Palin had hired Steven Silver, the former chief of staff for recently indicted Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens, as Wasilla’s lobbyist.
And Palin continued to solicit federal funds as governor. A request form on Stevens’ Web site shows that she requested $160.5 million in earmarks for the state in 2008, and almost $198 million for 2009

Posted by: Joe | September 19, 2008, 9:02 am 9:02 am

we found some instances where the nominee strained the truth.
Insurance Claims
McCain mischaracterized Obama’s health care plan:
McCain: His plan will force small businesses to cut jobs, reduce wages, and force families into a government run health care system where a bureaucrat stands between you and your doctor.
The claim that “small businesses” would have to “cut jobs, reduce wages,” runs counter to Obama’s actual proposal. Obama’s plan would require businesses to contribute to the cost of insurance for employees or pay some unspecified amount into a new public plan. But his proposal specifically says, “Small businesses will be exempt from this requirement.” And it offers additional help to small businesses that want to provide health care in the form of a refundable tax credit of up to half the cost of premiums. We’ll note that neither man has defined what exactly a “small business” is.
Furthermore, Obama’s plan wouldn’t “force” families into a “government-run health care system.” His plan mandates that children have coverage; there’s no mandate for adults. People can keep the health insurance they have now or chose from private plans, or opt for a new public plan that will offer coverage similar to what members of Congress have. Obama would also expand Medicaid and the State Children’s Health Insurance Program. His plan certainly expands government-offered insurance – and McCain’s doesn’t – but it’s not a solely government-run plan, as McCain implied. And if Obama’s public plan turns out to be similar to what federal employees have, as he says it would be, we’re not sure how “a bureaucrat” would stand “between you and your doctor.” The possible exception would be persons covered by Medicaid or SCHIP.
McCain also made this boast:
McCain: My health care plan will make it easier for more Americans to find and keep good health care insurance.
Fair enough. But McCain’s plan wouldn’t do nearly as well as Obama’s. One comparison, by the nonpartisan Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center, finds Obama’s would reduce the uninsured by 18 million people in its first year, compared with a 1 million reduction under McCain’s plan. TPC made various assumptions about the plans to fill in details each proposal lacks, so those numbers aren’t definitive. We await more comparisons from other experts.

Wow, I’m not really sure how to respond here. Bill Clinton has been called the greatest Democratic Prez of the last century (not by me I’m Libertarian) and now dems are calling him a traitor and a racist. Bill spoke a truth that is plain to all that haven’t been drinking kool aid, John McCain is a great man whether you agree with him on issues or not and now he is attacked. I guess now dems will start calling John Kennedy the greatest prez of the last century, well just a little history, JFK called for accross the board tax CUTS when he was the prez because he understood that by cutting taxes on everyone you stimulate the economy and revenue to the fed rises. He did not support class warfare and would most likely not support BO’s tax plan.

misrepresents Obama’s tax plan. Again.
Summary
The McCain-Palin campaign has released a new ad that once again distorts Obama’s tax plans.
The ad claims Obama will raise taxes on electricity. He hasn’t proposed any such tax. Obama does support a cap-and-trade policy that would raise the costs of electricity, but so does McCain.
It falsely claims he would tax home heating oil. Actually, Obama proposed a rebate of up to $1,000 per family to defray increased heating oil costs, funded by what he calls a windfall profits tax on oil companies.
The ad claims that Obama will tax “life savings.” In fact, he would increase capital gains and dividends taxes only for couples earning more than $250,000 per year, or singles making $200,000. For the rest, taxes on investments would remain unchanged.
The McCain campaign argues in its documentation for this ad that, whatever Obama says he would do, he will eventually be forced to break his promise and raise taxes more broadly to pay for his promised spending programs. That’s an opinion they are certainly entitled to express, and to argue for. But their ad doesn’t do that. Instead, it simply presents the McCain camp’s opinion as a fact, and it fails to alert viewers that its claims are based on what the campaign thinks might happen in the future.
Analysis
In what has become an ongoing theme, the McCain-Palin campaign has released yet another ad that makes false claims about Barack Obama’s tax plan. The ad, which was released on Sept. 18 and which the campaign says will air nationally, claims that Obama will raise income taxes and will tax “life savings, electricity and home heating oil.” As we keep saying, Obama says he’ll raise income taxes and capital gains taxes only for couples earning more than $250,000 per year or singles making over $200,000. He has proposed no plans to raise taxes on either home heating oil or electricity.

I find it totally amazing! Bill Clinton disses Obama by making a racist statement minimizing Obama’s win in South Carolina, and saying Jesse Jackson won there. I was a big supporter of Bill and Hillary Clinton. I voted for Bill twice for president. But after Hillary said that she and McCain could be commmander and chief and Obama could not. I lost much respect for Hillary. You don’t do this to a fellow democrat. The Clinton’s are all about power, and they can’t stand it that upstart Obama has snatched away their power. I am very disappointed in the Clinton’s who played the race card throughtout Hillary’s campaign for the democratic nomination for the presidency. Fortunately, it didn’t work, but it is clear that they are not fully supporting Obama because they are hoping for another shot in 2012.

Oh how funny. You know the only reason Bill Clinton is “praising” Palin, right (think Monica L.)?? She’s an idiot and tries to babble her way out of questions at her very best.

Bill Clinton is a wimp! He continues to hold a grudge because Senator Obama won the Democratic presidential nomination fair and square.
Billie has to remember, it was the people who voted. And if he has a problem with that, shame on him!
As far as his remarks about Palin, is any one surprised?!!! This woman is not ready to be anything. She screwed up as mayor of Wasilla, leaving the town with BIG DEBT!
I am not surprised at Bill Clinton and what he has to say. He has become a BIG DISAPPOINTMENT!
He’d rather sell-out the Democratics because his wife didn’t win!!!!!!!
I hope he reads this!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RKing – I know you work for the BO campaign and you are trying to help your canidate, but you left out some important facts about the bridge to nowhere, like the fact that both of your canidates voted for it (the only ones running prez who did). Also BO had the oppurtunity to reverse his first vote for it and divert the funds to Katrina relief after the project became a symbol of government waste and he still voted for it!!!!!

Then maybe, we can get pass skin color and vote for change. Every election cycle we put the writing on the wall and people never listen. NO BAIL OUT with my tax money. NO NO NO. We all go down together and then rebuild together.

BKMC – If Clinton is the only one bringing race into the election, what exactly does BO mean when he talks about the American people being scared of him because he doesn’t look like the presidents on the “dollar bill, ah the 1 dollar bill and the five dollar bill”.

Is it true he doesn’t do well without a teleprompter?
Was he dodging that fact?
Wanna see the three upcoming presidential debates before I make up my mind!

Let’s see:
Bill and Hillary Clinton have a 30 year public record of promoting and supporting civil rights
Bill Clinton appointed the Presidential Cabinet that “looked like America” (i.e. women and minorities held many important positions)
Bill Clinton appointed 2 supreme court justices who will uphold civil rights and affirmative action
Bill Clinton, based on his 8 year record in office, had a 90% approval rating amongst African Americans and was affectionately referred to as the “first black president”
The Clinton foundation has made affordable HIV drugs available to thousands in impoverished African countries
Yet Obama and his lower than dirt campaign race baited on the eve of the SC primary.
Implying that Bill and Hillary Clinton (OF ALL PEOPLE) were racists. How low can you go?
So the only thing that Bill and Hillary Clinton owe Obama is a good swift kick in the a**.
HILLARY 2012!!

Amazing. The angry left is so blinded by hate they’ll even turn on the stars of their own party when they don’t march in lock step with them. The Clinton’s understand that it will take cooperation from both parties to fix this country and John McCain has the history and backbone to do just that. Obama and Biden just want to play Robin Hood, take from the rich-give to the poor. That is a band aid, not a solution

Posted by: Chris | September 19, 2008, 10:30 am 10:30 am

Bill Clinton said his wife gave “the most detailed position I’ve seen on what she felt we ought to do on the finance crisis.”
If Bill is referring to the interview with Dianne Sawyer, then I urge each of us to see the interview and judge for yourself about the “details”. In that interview, Hillary identified some of the problems (housing foreclosure, wallstreet, mainstreet, blah, blah blah)and said she saw this coming which is why she proposed a moratorium to freeze the interest rates. The most “detailed position”, huh? Sounds like posturing for a 2012 bid with the political slogan “I told you so.”

Posted by: Nik | September 19, 2008, 10:37 am 10:37 am

Just because McCain is considered to be a “great man”,an American Hero and experienced, does not mean he is equipped to be President of the U.S. You can knowledge and experience, but not enough wisdom, forsight and ability to make a decision.
Barack O’Bama is highly educated (did not graduate near the bottom of his class) brilliant, knowledgeable, understands foreign and domestic policies, is unselfish and really cares about people.
Don’t let your racism hold the Country back by supporting a person (McCain)who will do anything to win (even lie).
God is the one who is truly in control; what ever happens in November, it will be his Will.

Sadly alot of these comments are based off emotion. When people say that they don’t know Obama, they don’t know McCain/Palin either. OK, McCain because he’s a war veteran and been in politics. That doesn’t not mean that he’s going to make the best decisions for the welfare of regular people. All of the candidates have accomplishments…All of them. It is really unfair and shallow to try to ignore Obama’s just because some are nervous at the fact that a young bi-racial boy came up through the ranks his own way. People seem to forget that he’s graduated from two of the best colleges in American, better yet the world. To say he’s an idiot is biased. An idiot doesn’t make it this far w/o connections (G. W. BUSH). To be honest, it is a hard choice but be honest with yourselves. We all know that McCain won’t know what the heck he’s doing and that Palin will run the White House. She is smart and thinks quickly. Obama will do what he thinks will please everybody and so he will need Biden to keep him focused as well. The key to Obama is that his ideas are fresh and truth be told, we need that because the same ole, same ole has not been working. The Republicans (I voted for Bush in ’04) are closed minded and don’t display honesty about the true state of America. I really wish that we all could just be honest for this moment in time and not base our judgements on race and fear. Look at the organization of Obama…it shows that he knows how to put groups together in order to get accomplished what he needs. Now, truly, that’s judgement. I don’t want a President that has to always show his muscles in order to get things done. It will cause a mutiny. It’s been proven time and time again, bullying and/or flexing works only for a moment (America’s standings with the rest of the world!)

Thank you Bill Clinton. We agree that McCain is a great man and Palin a terrific VP choice. As a man of reason, I’m glad you told the truth. But you are wrong on your assessment of who will win: McCain will win.

Posted by: bluebird | September 19, 2008, 10:53 am 10:53 am

Badger,
I think that it is amazing that after the past 8 years of Bush / republican leadership (if you can call it that)and the conservatives in our country still honestly think that everything is ok and McCain-Palin will make a difference. One day, maybe the Republican supporters will wake up and make decisions for themselves. But then again, probably not. Why start now. Running a party on Abortion, Gay marriage and War has worked so far. Nevermind the country. America needs a president, not a saviour. OBAMA 08

Posted by: ohio for obama | September 19, 2008, 10:57 am 10:57 am

republicans: using social and cultural issues to gain political power since 1973. It’s sad all the problems in the country / world right now and they want to give the power to mccain ( another war politician) and Palin ( a PTA Hypocrite, so clueless that she cant even answer a question about why she is qualified to be VP). There is a reason they wont let her answer questions from the public . . . Unless of course the question comes from a personally invited guest. So Sad.

Posted by: ohio for obama | September 19, 2008, 11:02 am 11:02 am

Thanks Bill for telling the truth. However, I disagree with you one thing. Obama will lose this election no matter what you said! Republicans won’t vote for him including 30% of Hillary supporters and I am one of them!
PS: if Hillary decides to run again after Obama lost in November, she will not have our votes! We did not leave DNC, they left us!

Ms W – I have to repectfully disagree with you about BO’s judgement. Bo procured an earmark for Michelle’s employer only weeks after she was promoted and given a 150K salary. At the very least that is severe lack of judgement and at the worst corruption. I don’t know which is was and don’t really care, I just know it was either the dumbest move in the history of politics or dishonest behavior.

Posted by: Bob | September 19, 2008, 11:10 am 11:10 am

Ms W: Even though I am not and will not be supporting your candidate of choice I am compelled to congratulate you on your very well written statement in support of “your” candidate. Like you I voted for Bush in ’04 and I am also very disappointed in his performance. My fear is I don’t want to jump from the frying pan into the fire. I believe in country first and my main concern about Obama is his association with proven anti American radicals who do not believe in America first. No matter who wins I fear for the future of our country. I am a true conservative and my choice for the Presidential candidate would have been Condolezza Rice. All that being said may I close with God Bless You and may God Bless America..

Wow is all i can say to alot of the hate that is on this thread. First on earmarks. Of the four respective people only McCain has never requested an earmark. However only one candidate has made issue with elimating earmarks yet she and her state requested huge earmarks. As far as Bill Clinton and racist remarks made, it was he in South Carolina who made light of obama’s win. It was Hillary who belittled MLK’s work on Civil Rights. It was Hillary supporters like Rendel and Ferrero who talked Race. African American’s need to relize that if Obama loses it is because of racist Democrat’s not voting for him not Republican’s. It is the Democrat’s that keep bringing up Race not the Republican’s. When you have one party that ignores you (R’s) and one party that takes you for granted (D’s) you get what you get! No seat at the table! Wake up! if we are to have any say in the political process we need to have both parties fighting for our votes. the republican’s ignore us and the Democrat’s want our vote but not our kind to run for office! Really sad but we need to make both parties respect and appreciate our vote and then and only then will we receive a seat at the table. I want to stress that it is the RACIST Democrat’s that will cost Obama this election!

Can’t see the country in the hands of Pelosi, Reid and Obama…a disaster….like Jimmy Carter, just when you think it couldn’t get worse, it does. McCain and hope for something better in four years.

The Clintons are so great because of their support for civil rights? That doesn’t make sense. EVERYBODY IS EQUAL. That is the way it should be and their support of civil rights doesn’t make a blanket statement that they are not prejudiced. Don’t you think they got something out of it? They got votes and that is what they did it for. Votes are all that matter to the Clintons- not you and not me.

…give me a break! Good judgment? Let see, he had been associated with the most racist pastor in Chicago for the past twenty years and just realized that it was wrong after the public brought pressure on him!!!!! When he was in Illinois’s senate, he voted “Present” 130 times???? 130 times??? Did he know what he was doing? It appears that NOT! Experience? A community organizer???
The only accomplishment Obama has done so far = divide Democrats!
We don’t want another idiot in the Whitehouse after Bush; Obama is Bush’s version with no experience and judgment! Wake up Americans!

obama is a women fighter, compared to hillary and maccain’s, I’think his campaign is most dishonorable. His aids are hooligans and didn’t respect women at all. when they need female’s votes, they will hug them; when they need to destroy them, they insult them.

I should be just as accountable for what I do as any other man or woman. We are individuals. I haven’t found him racist or sexist. I am very proud of the way he didn’t resort to the filth that Hillary and McCain did. Obama has taken the high road and because of that, he has my vote.

Posted by: ggm1957 | September 19, 2008, 11:42 am 11:42 am

Thank you President Clinton! You spoke the truth! John McCain is indeed a great man and Sarah Palin should not be underestimated.
Obama is a phony reformer while McCain is the real reformer! Obama is fraud inflicted on America. He is far-left socialist who has accomplished nothing in life. Obama rose-up in the corrupt machine politics of Illinois and did nothing, let me repeat nothing, to reform the cess pool of Illinois and Chicago politics probably the most corrupt state in US. In fact, he benefited from it and participated in it. He is buddies with Tony Rezko, Jeremiah Wright, and William Ayres. Enough said!
All he does is give speeches from a teleprompter written for him by his speech writers.
Thankfully, he will go down to a landslide defeat on November 4 and will drag down the do-nothing far-left Democratic congress with him.
I am looking forward to that date.

With the exception of Reagan, I have always voted Democrat, I will vote for McCain this time and have begged every democrat I know to do the same. Obama will bring terrorism to our soil and he will give money to them on their soil. We must fear this man not vote for him. Bill we need you!!!

I’m glad to see The Clintons and many other democrats cross to McCain/Palin. Many of them doing it for their own reasons. The biggest reasons are Obama is a slimy Chicago politician and the other reason is McCain is actually going to win. The polls they throw out at us everyday mean nothing. They poll a few hundred people and get their results. You don’t know if these people are actually registered to vote or what. Remember Kerry was up what 14%? according to our liberal media. We saw how that worked out….McCain/Palin for me this year.. Country first!

Larry, I truly honor your take on this thing about the racism in the campaign. Sometimes, we as the regular people don’t even realized when we’re being played by the media and the very politicians that we’re selling our souls for. Obama has never stood on his race as a ladder or a stumbling block. Most of us are making it by the grace of God and the hair of our chinny-chin-chin. Do you really think McCain is thinking about you…even the blue-collar Republicans and Palin, please…she’s showed her judgement by jumping into this race with all that baggage and being arrogrant enough (rightfully so, I guess) to say “poo-poo” to what we think about what she got goin on. Obama is gonna need constant reminders as well as to(when he becomes President) just who he’s in the White House to serve and Biden, like McCain, has put his time in and walking in the place he feels he deserves. All of this is a joke. Why pick a president based on abortion or gay rights, etc. This stuff is a personal choice and shouldn’t be the basis of how you pick someone who is in charge or making your paycheck bigger or smaller. All of them are diluted in some way. To the Hillary-supporters, don’t be stupid. You don’t even know if you’ll be alive in 4 yrs. You don’t know if Hillary will be in Obama’s cabinet or not. Don’t sell your soul either way for the simple fact that she didn’t get the nod. It’s hypocritical and unfair. Obama won the race fair and square…if that exists in politics.

Posted by: Ms. W | September 19, 2008, 11:54 am 11:54 am

The comments on the blog are striking to say the least. The fact is Bill is mad Hillary lost. The fact is Bill is not a racist. The fact is Bill marginalize BO’s win in SC by implying blacks in SC would support any black candidate. The fact is Ferraro said BO is only winning because he is black. The fact is McCain has not offered one tangible solution to the economic crisis or the “war on terror” both issues are more complicated then the sound bites McCain is giving. The fact is BO has been offering tangible solutions, whether or not you agree with them. The fact is Palin requested as mayor and governor earmarks and used lobbyist and now rails against the very practices she so readily employed. The fact is Repub’s have controlled the presidency for 8yrs and congress for 6yrs. The fact is their policies have caused or contributed to the very situation we face now. The fact is McCain and his economic advisor Phil Gramm vigorously supported and achieved deregulation of the very industry that is dragging our economy down. The fact is another financial crisis has occurred on a Repub’s watch, (remember the savings and loan debacle) fast ward and now we have the investment bank crisis. The fact is in the span of a week or so, McCain went from the economy is fundamentally strong to America is in crisis. The fact is HRC lost because her campaign was poorly run, and HRC will repeat it again if it is not acknowledged and fixed if she plans to run again. The fact is BO said Afghanistan is falling apart and more troops are needed, guess what, the military brass feels the same way and GW is sending more troops. The fact is BO said if there is info that Osama is in Pakistan the USA should act, guess what, GW has done that too with secret raids. McCain scoffed at both ideas. Neither BO nor McCain can solve all our problems. Vote for who you want the choice is yours. But it is your futures on the line, because BO and McCain and their families will be ok whether or not the gov’t can fix healthcare, the economy or the war. However, many Americans and many on this blog will not. Vote with good information (check out factcheck.org or other non-partisan sites) not lies and distortions pushed by left and right wing nut jobs. Vote for your interest and not for your bias.

If Senator Obama wins, Senator Hillary Clinton will NOT have any chance to run for the president in 2012. She may have to wait until 2016, and it is TOO LATE for her. I want anyone who truly believe in Senator Clinton to think twice before going to vote for Senator Obama.

Thank you Bill Clinton for your fair accessment. And not a big endorsement for Obama.
McCain has always been a stand up guy. Since Viet Nam. And Palin is not in the Washington elite clique as Obama and especially Biden (how many years has he been there? WOW!).
Obama says change but instead of Hillary, picks the 6th longest person in Washington. What a duck. Can we say EGO problem?
McCain isn’t afraid to let a woman open the White House front door for him. Obama won’t share the spot light. Even Biden admits she’d have been the better pick. Nice! Sounds like there’s a lot of “say whatever we need to, till we get in” going around.

Posted by: Barrie | September 19, 2008, 12:19 pm 12:19 pm

Why is everyone Democrat slamming Bill Clinton. He said he thinks Obama will win, and he reminded everyone that Hillary is out campaigning for Obama. He also honestly gave his opinion about how tight the race is going to be to the very end. I think Hillary’s take on the situation with Diane Sawyer earlier this week was fabulous and contained a very honest perspective. I think Biden and the Clintons are being overly nice about McCain. Rather, I think there is a “political animal” side of McCain that his backers are carefully hiding at present but that America needs to sincerely avoid at the polls. Heed my words and vote for Obama/Biden.

Posted by: Caribel | September 19, 2008, 12:21 pm 12:21 pm

Aye, Ricky I’m aware of the shifty headline. It’s the news media they do that. You can’t ignore the fact that the Clintons do not support Obama though. Myself I never vote on what the media or one person or the other tells me about a candidate. I do the research I find out on my own. The elections are rarely about the issues and neither candidate can tell you a clear plan about anything because you don’t know how things will change when you’re in office. First and foremost I do my research on the candidates then I see who the candidates are on the non political issues, such as abortion, economy, integrity, religion, etc. I have much respect for McCain. The man has some issues that he believes in that aren’t the most popular but he still supports his beliefs. He supports the troops and the war in Iraq, but he has never shifted from it because it’s unpopular. He tells things like it is whether you’re going to like him for it or not. …………Obama on the other hand I had respect for before he started throwing people under the bus for political reasons. Like his pastor, a friend and mentor for 20 years, he just throws the man away for political purposes. Now I never agreed with Mr. Wright but I believe in his heart he probably thinks what he says is right, and he’s probably not all that bad of a person. Obama threw him out like dirty dish water for political gain. There are many other instances just like that one in Obama’s campaign to the White House. I just can’t respect, vote for, or trust in a person like that. I need a candidate I can believe in and trust to lead our country & I believe that man is John McCain.

This is the time that the Democrats come together to support the O’Bama/Biden ticket. After reading Bill Clinton’s “Praise” for McCain, there is one word that describes this person, and it’s the same term for Connecticut Senator Joseph Liberman. “Juddas!”
AT LEAST OBAMA DIDN’T VOTE YES FOR THE APPROVAL FOR THE TROOPS TO GO TO WAR IN IRAQ – BUT YOUR WIFE DID!!!!!
(My condolences to Chelsea, for having parents that are too selfish for their own good, to serve for the sake of the Democratic Party.)
O’Bama will become the President of the United States of America, and there’s not a damm, rotten thing that the haters (Clinton, McCain/Palin, Liberman “the other Juddas”, and the conservatives that thinks Palin has more credentials than O’Bama) can say about it once the people says so.

Political suborning of the American dream . A chicken in every pot has morphed into homes for all. From wall street to k street every one is financed, no saving no problem, you got a job, you deserve a home. Not
Just any old home but the suburban dream two car garage and all the fixings . Home owners were shoe horned in whether they had money discipline and character or not. Lending practices were thrust on the banking industry in some sense of social justice. Now this foul Pollyannaish boondoggle has come home to roost.
The banking industry is gagging on billions in bad loans. Horror , what to do. Scroll down to election 2008. All the “people can think of is Lets have more, more of every thing. More heath care more programs entitlements more government at every level all managed by the same self serving “what you want I’ll get it for you” political class. The American people have bought (he’ll give me what I need) the leaders they deserve. We don’t have patriots cause we are all drowning in our own entitlement obsessed reality.

Bill Clinton has shown in this interview that he has NOT put “personal politics” aside.
Being a Hillary supporter during the primaries, I can’t help feeling disappointed by the Clintons’ inability to truly put “personal politics” aside.
I admired Hillary’s rich grasp of policy issues and liked many of her policy ideas. I still do. And as a woman, I felt particularly proud of her candidacy. However, I know she lost not because of sexism but because of her failure to play the game right — she played the game as if it was a winner-take-all while the rule dictated proportional distribution of delegate votes. She lost my support when in the middle of the game she fiercely stirred up her supporters to put pressure on her party to change the rule of the game in her favor, a move that she knew would make party division hard to heal well enough for the general election.
In spite of my grudges, I still hope Hillary will learn from her mistakes and run again. But I am trying to be realistic and I hope she will, too. If Obama loses this time, Clinton will be 64 and find herself competing with a formidable female incumbent who is 48 in 2012. I truly believe that her best hope now is to do her real best to help elect Obama. Hopefully then, she will be able to push her signature health care plan through Congress and be remembered as the (yes, female) politician who has transformed the health care landscape of this country.
Al Gore has proved that there are other ways for a gifted politician to shine. It’s time for the Clintons to learn a thing or two from their former colleague.

Actually Bob, this is my first time. I do support Obama, but I also think that this drama with Hillary supporters and their vote is uncalled for. It happens all the time, there is a primary, a winner is chosen and then everyone bands together for the nominee. Now I don’t know how you look at it, but the goal is to restore power to the Dems who carry the majority of our beliefs/ideas (no party can please every desire of a voter). There is no way you can tell me that what the supporters are doing will better the “cause” of our democratic goal. It’s division and believe you me, once again…Divided You Will Fall.
McCain is eating this alive and if I were him, I would be too. Truth is, and I repeat that I voted for Bush in ’04 so I’m not a “sold-out black voter for the Dem”, if Obama was not particially Black, which he is….Partially, this would be a no-brainer. All of the politicians have baggage, angles, ambitions, accomplishments, and mistakes in their record…by the way, As Do Each Of US.
Looking at Obama’s rise, people would say (if he wasn’t Black) it was a true grassroots success story. To always bring up Rev. Wright and Ayers, says first that people are grasping and secondly that all of us have never been associated with people who didn’t always exude what we believe and that’s a lie! Nobody brings up McCain’s harshness of leaving his faithful wife for a much younger woman, Palin’s situation speaks for itself, McCain graduating at the btm of his class, his association the Savings/Loans castastrophe and his constant record of doing or saying whatever to push his own political interest.
They’re politicians. “Poly” means many, “Tics” means bloodsucking creatures. I dare not mention the Clintons and all of their “un-holy” alliances. Oh yeah, and Bush…isn’t he a part of the oil business? Cheney, the big ELEPHANT in the room that no one can discuss.

There is no gratitude for your hard work.
Reading your (Bill’s) statement I am so glad that (as is your grand style of pasing words) it appears that you only promissed to work for the Obama camp for a few weeks.
Please defect just before the election.

Bill Clinton has been on message for the Dem Party, but how much can he say about Obama? Obama is running on a very thin resume of past achievements. He really doesn’t know what he’s doing; that’s why he changes positions so much. John McCain is a great man who can be trusted to put America first, and he will spend his time in office building a legacy for himself rather than trying to enrich himself–which he doesn’t need to do. And Sara Palin is an intelligent woman of strong character, who will be an excellent VP. Though she, too, has a somewhat thin resume, it’s not so thin as Senator Obama’s.

Dear Member of the Senate Ethics Committee,
I am writing to request that you open an investigation into the actions of Senator Barack Obama with regard to his July visit to Iraq. News reports, as well as the statements from Senator Obama’s own campaign, confirm that Senator Obama attempted to negotiate a plan for troop withdrawals and a framework for the American presence in Iraq in such a way as to benefit him politically. This is clearly an unethical way for a member of the United States Senate to act, using his status and leverage as a Senator and prominent candidate to undermine the Administration and to benefit his own political career. It also appears to be a direct violation of the Logan Act.
From the Logan Act:
“Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.”
I am a member of Puma PAC, People United Means Action (http://pumapac.org). We are the Voice of the Voters in the Democratic Party and we strongly oppose Senator Obama’s selection as our Party’s nominee. We believe he is an unethical politician, disloyal to the fundamental values of our democracy.
Thank you for your consideration and time.
Sincerely,

I am writing to request that you open an investigation into the actions of Senator Barack Obama with regard to his July visit to Iraq. News reports, as well as the statements from Senator Obama’s own campaign, confirm that Senator Obama attempted to negotiate a plan for troop withdrawals and a framework for the American presence in Iraq in such a way as to benefit him politically. This is clearly an unethical way for a member of the United States Senate to act, using his status and leverage as a Senator and prominent candidate to undermine the Administration and to benefit his own political career. It also appears to be a direct violation of the Logan Act.
From the Logan Act:
“Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.”
I am a member of Puma PAC, People United Means Action (http://pumapac.org). We are the Voice of the Voters in the Democratic Party and we strongly oppose Senator Obama’s selection as our Party’s nominee. We believe he is an unethical politician, disloyal to the fundamental values of our democracy.
Thank you for your consideration and time.
Sincerely,
first initial and last name and county state
Puma PAC Democrat

The Globelist are selling and preaching to America. The sheep are following like it’s there tela-prompter. With the advanced changes in this world and the fearful people to just do what is right for the constitutional land of freedom, the responsibility falls on the people. WE are the ones who will allow this country to be sold out and no longer be America- the land of the free. Two in the same playing our country like a fiddle.

Bill should know having been around politics for so long that if Obama is defeated and Bill and Hillary have not given their all, and in fact have actually been on the side lines in hope of an Obama defeat, that Obama voters, and their are a lot of them, will not forget. Hillary will go down in flames in 2012. And of course as a result the country, and the Dem party will suffer for many years to come. The Dem self destruct mode has been activated.

Posted by: BruceT | September 19, 2008, 2:43 pm 2:43 pm

Bill is still so sore at Obama that he will NEVER come out with a ringing endorsement or support. At heart, the Clintons still hope for a loss for Obama so that Hillary will have another opportunity in four years. However, buyers beware! If Obama loses, and Hillary runs again in four years, she WILL face the biggest defeat of her life, and the Clinton legacy, already in tatters will never be able to recover from it. Most democrats are some of the most loyal and they will remain loyal to party. So if the Clintons think that they are playing a double-edged game, they should know now that those who play by this sword will get destroyed by the same sword.

McCain calls Chelsea ugly. McCain keeps smiling when one of his supporters called Hillary a bit**. Now Bill calls McCain a great man? What does it tell of this man Bill? Not a good father nor a good husband. He just wants power and fame. What a low life. As for McCain, exactly what is the contribution of McCain other than the POW experience 40 yrs. back? He dumped his wife to marry a rich girl Cindy (One reason why Bill likes him), then Keating 5, then calling his wife cu***, now talking like a lunatic on foreign policy issues, not knowing where Spain is (most recent gaffe) and no clue on economic matters. As for Palin, she acts more like a prostitution ring MADAM. Look how she goes after people she doesn’t like, settling personal scores abusing the powers of her office.
If Bill is hoping McCain will win the white house this time so that his wife can contest again in 2012, then he is just dreaming. There will millions of Democrats who will teach Hillary and this low life Bill as lesson in 2012 is she contests.

Bill Clinton always seems to have a problem with being a team player from the time that Monica joined him in the Oval Office to the very bad decisions that came out of his office; NAFTA to be specific. Under this policy, huge companies pollute other countries, kill jobs for our citizens, and at the same time make record profits at the expense of America’s workers. You might think NAFTA was a Republican joke, but what it has done to the American worker, is a disgrace. We have Bill to thank for this. If I were on the Obama/Biden campaign, I would say, “Thanks, but no thanks.” With that kind of support, it would be best if Bill could be fitted with a cork until after the election.
Get off it about Obama being inexperienced. What a Republican thing to say. Obama is a professor of Constitutional Law, ambassador of good will in Europe and Africa, community organizer, etc. Tell me again what are McCain/Palin credentials? How many programs has Palin instituted to help people become self sufficient? Obama has not made laws to exterminate the wildlife of our continent. Heard of Palin’s grizzly bear slaughter on AK’s Katmai Preserve? That kind of experience is not in the best interest of anyone.

ED, am not an African American, however, will ensure that the Clintons realize that we are not like them. Their betrayal will be repaid in kind, and they can say all the nicest things about McSame/McPalin. But let it be known that the rest of us loyal democrats will not forgive nor forget their “non-support” of our nominee. If the republicans were to win this November, all of us party faithful will begin the purging of the Clintons, beginning in NY and off the national stage. We cannot afford to reward anyone who claims to be a party loyalist, yet tries to work both sides. They will not be forgotten, but will be gone, as will their legacy. They should reflect on what the future holds for them if they want to be remembered as pillars of the democratic party. Loyalty can only go so far, regardless of race or color!

I am so tired of hearing about “Obama’s Socialism.” Note that the accusation is never substantiated by ANY fact. Do you right-handed wingnuts even know the definition of socialism?
Main tenets of socialism are:
- safety-net institutions like single-payer health care and social security
- nationalization of major industries
- state guarantees and management of social investments such as education.
Let’s see now.
1. Obama’s health plan declines to make obtaining healthcare mandatory. Not socialist.
2. A Republican administration has just nationalized several major private industries central to the functioning of our economy. Obama has nobly and wisely declined to contradict the government during a time of crisis.
3. Obama does want to make it easier to get an education, but stops far short of making guarantees of either admission or tuition. In fact, the nearest thing to socialization of education we’ve got is No Child Left Behind, which establishes penalties for non-conformance to metrics. In a socialized educational system, college admission and major would be far more closely tied to the student’s performance on aptitude tests and far less associated with student preference.
Finally, as an actual socialist, I can personally guarantee you that Obama’s not one.

What is wrong wity you people – they throw you a bone and you dive for it – Clinton didn’t say anything against Sen. Obama – “But, I think, on the issues that matter to our future, the Obama-Biden team is, is more right,” Clinton said of the Democratic ticket.
So what if he offered some praise to McCain/Palin? Why start this divide again? I am surprise that Obama’s supporters are so quick to attack Clinton – don’t you know the will only stir up the PUMAs.

One of Obama’s earmark was money for the states medical insurance coverage for the people. I would not call that an earmark but necessity.
Palin’s earmark was for that bridge to no where. Palin did not stop that bridge from being built. Congress pulled it telling her she could not built that bridge with the money or she would have to give it back. Palin got the money for repairing roads and improving or rebuilding bridges in disrepair for the transporation and use by all the citizens of Alaska. Not just for a chosen few. Question is, are the repair and improvements and rebuilding being done? Now that bridge to nowhere was a definite earmark.

This “great” man is one of the reason’s this country id=s in the financial mess it’s inh. John McCain, and Hhil Gramm co-authored deregulatin legislation, that opened the door to this mess. Don’t just vote for McCain, leave the Democratic party, and take Bill clinton with you. If You, and Clinton think you can sabotage Obama, and get hillary elected in 2012, you’re both delusional. She can’t get elected dog catcher without Obama supporters. Mull that over turncoat.

Kay said- I’d love to support Obama if he’s not too far left. McCain is more to the center.”
————————————–
Mc Cain is definitely not “center” and Obama is definitely not too far left. Actually, McCain is sucking up to the far right nut cases and that is why he picked Palin. I too liked McCain until he threw away his “centerness” to appeal to the extreme “right wingers” who have taken over the Republican pary (my party by the way.) He has lost my respect and my vote. I don’t know what “far left” means to you but Obama is a thoughtful and pragmatic man who, I believe, has the leadership skills to get us out of this mess. I want something done about the economy (McCain says it is basically strong); I want something done about health care (I’m not sure what McCain proposes on that); I want something done about gas prices even if that means the hugh oil companies that the far right support don’t make as much money. If all that is too left for you, than vote for McCain. He is promising business as usual and 8 more years of the same. I can not tolerate what has happened to my party and my two votes for Bush are the worst mistake I ever made as an American.

Economist and Stateman LaRouche Outlines Four Necessary Steps to Worldwide Economic Crisis——September 12, 2008 (LPAC)%u2013In discussions yesterday, Lyndon LaRouche emphasized that the actual breakdown which he had forecast on July 25, 2007 has already occurred, and as of now, there will be no return to the system that existed prior to September 2008. Only a new design of a system echoing the intentions of Franklin Roosevelt at the 1944 Bretton Woods conference could rescue the world’s physical economy under present, post-August 2008 conditions.
To this end, LaRouche specified four necessary steps:
Step #1: Put the present international monetary system into bankruptcy reorganization. Step #2: Create a new system, a credit system, rather than a monetary system, in the form of an appropriately modern version of President Franklin Roosevelt’s intention for a Bretton Woods system. Step #3: Organize the new system on the basis of an extended form of the 1648 Peace of Westphalia system, rather than a conflict-system. The IMF must be replaced by a treaty organization among participating sovereign nation-states with complementary long-term economic missions of scientific and related progress per-capita and per-square kilometer of territory. Step #4: Define a common, long-term mission-orientation of two or more generations’ span for increase of the productive powers of labor among nations generally.

Senator Clinton “happily” campaigns for Barack Obama, and Joe Biden, while Bill Clinton sings the praises of John McCain, and Sarah Palin. With “help” like that, who needs “swiftboaters”? So BIll thinks Hillary has offered up the best plan to get us out of this financial mess? NEWSFLASH Bill, Hillary isn’t running. I don’t know what kind of game this is, but I’ve got another newsflash for Bill. Hillary can’t get elected dog catcher without Obama supporters. And if he thinks he can talk out of both sides of his mouth, campaign for Obama, and sabotage him at the same time. Then I’m as insulted by that, as I am McCain nominating Palin in the first place. Since he thinks Palin is so great, I want to hear him say that he thinks Palin is as qualified as Hillary. What he basically said today is “I think Obama will win, but McCain/Palin is a better ticket”. At this point, I want Bill Clinton to SHUT THE EFF UP, and GO AWAY. As an African-American that supported Bill Clinton through the good, and bad, I am through with him. Should Obama lose this election I will do everything I can to make sure Hillary never get’s elected ANYTHING ever again. And if you think that I am the only African American, or young person that feels that way, then it’s not McCain whose out of touch, it’s Bill Clinton!

Troopergate is taking on a life of its own. It ain’t about the bad brother in-law. Now it’s about obstruction of justice. That sounds like Bush-Cheney-Rove-Alberto Gonzales territory. Comparisons to Scooter Libby and the Mark Foley cover-up are sure to follow. Notice that only Republican pundits and Fox News are on the Troopergate story. Pawlenty is silent. Charlie Crist vanished. Lieberman is on vacation. They’re jumping ship like a pack of rats. They got a whiff of the real John McCain and it stinks.

Kitty, I think your eyes are playing tricks on you. I said HILLARY can’t win without OBAMA supporters. Pay attention. The common sense of the matter tells you if Hillary got 18 million votes, and Obama got 17.8 million votes, neither one can win without the other’s supporters. Hence the charges of sabotage aimed at Bill Clinton. Did you get all that? Geez!

John McCain’s policies would have bankrupted the entire Social Security system, if they had been implemented. God bless the Democrats who blocked that from happening. Wall Street: stay away from my Social Security account!

These posts simply bring to light the racism, ignorance, and lack of comprehension demonstrated by many of the citizens of this great nation.
1) Republicans refuse to take responsibility for the last eight years of truly bad politics and management of this country by their party.
2) Democrats whinning about who won their primary and who did not, and then promising to vote for the other party as if that will move forward their ideals for this nation and political agenda.
3) Individuals and groups who would vote for or against based on gender, race, or age. How stupid can you get!
Does it really matter who throws you the life line as long as you catch the rope and have your life saved?
4) Democrats who refuse to except responsibility for not getting more vocal in congress, while Republicans made it easy to steal from hard working Americans pensions and savings.
5) Republicans who drink the koolaid of conservative talk radio. Look around, don’t you realize who these folks work for? It’s not for you.
6) Negative campaign ADs, need I say more.
7) The hyperbol of hate on these blogs.
Give me a break, do some real unbiased research before you blog.
8) Black, White, Yellow, Brown, Red, Peach, and Olive have all bled and died for this country. No one is better than the other. There are four Americans in this race for the Presidency, don’t forget it.
9) Give thanks that we can all agree to disagree.

Well, I don’t know how anyone can praise a dishonorable LIAR like mccaine. It’s already been proven that mccain has lied in far excess of the typical norm for a candidate. Now there is a new ad for mccain comming out that again states that Obama will raise taxes. It will say, “We would pay: painful income taxes, skyrocketing taxes on life savings, electricity and home heating oil.” Then, to a picture of a sleeping baby, it ends: “Can your family afford that?”
It’s already proven that alone is not true, yet mccain still parades this information around as if it were fact. Even worse, he lies about the lies he gets caught in and then propagates more lies that claim obama is the one lying about everything. I don’t think we can afford to have a disgrace to our country like mccain in office. If all was fair, he’d be disqualified and sent packing. He’s far worse than Bush and he too was pretty dishonest.

You perople are incorrigible. That’s why this nation is so divided now. Set in this “US” versus “THEM” mentality. When will you all realize that we are AMERICANS first. SO, what is Bill Clinton is a Democrat and he lavishes praise on McCain. Obama needs to be doing more of that if he hopes to get anything accomplished if he is so lucky as to be elected President. I doubt it very seriously if the Democrats gain the filibuster-proof majority that they are hoping for this term. If they don’t, they will need Republicans like Senator McCain, who has a track record of bipartisan cooperation, in order to get anything substantial done. Instead of trying to demonize each other, both candidates really need to do a better job of showing how and that he can work with the other side–both, regardless of who wins, will need to do some groveling to get his agenda carried out! Clinton was elected and re-elected during a time when the Republican “Contract for America” was at its height. That did not happen by coincidence. It happened because he has the political instincts to get things done, which means reaching across the aisle and bucking one’s own party when necessary. You may not like his tactics, but he knows what he is doing. HRC has exhibited that same political acumen during the primaries. (It is widely known in the political world that this was one of the reasons that the democratic establishment really did not like him, and don’t care too much for her!)

Here is a prime example of why Obama supporters scare me and should scare everyone.
About a month ago, Obama came to Houston(River Oaks a wealthy part of Houston) for a fundraiser and left as quickly as he got his funds. When I asked in my office why he went to River Oaks, but didn’t stay to talk with us “regular people”- I was called into the HR office because a black co-worker felt like I said something racist. Never mind the fact that I didn’t mention anyones color, she “felt” like I said something racist-so I had to explain myself. Word for word. Next it will be because someone “felt” like I was thinking something racist. This is what we have to look forward to, anytime anyone says anything except “I WORSHIP OBAMA” it is racist. Obama has set back race relations several years if not decades. If I ever thought about voting for him, I certainly won’t now, because everyone tells me I HAVE to vote for him or I am a racist. Something I have never been personally called until this farce of a race, just as the Clintons were never called racist until a black/white man entered this farce of an election. I don’t blame Bill a bit.

Posted by: Sick of It All | September 19, 2008, 7:26 pm 7:26 pm

Sick of It All, We will all need to get used to our free speech being censored if Obama is president. It’s one of my top 3 reasons not to vote for him. I would have had more respect for him had he dumped Wright in teh race speech rahter than after he realized his speech didn’t cut it (that’s number 2) and I just have a visceral negative response to Michelle Obama. There are lots more reasons, but today, those are the top 3.

Posted by: Kitty | September 19, 2008, 7:30 pm 7:30 pm

Bill is still angry because all of the dirty tricks that were pulled on Obama did not work in Hillary’s favor. Democrats need to learn to put on a united front. I can say one thing about Republicans, right or wrong, they stick together. This is why we as Americans will never really and truly be united, regardless of party affliation.

Anyone who really thinks the Clinton’s want Obama to win is a flat-out moron. Just like in 2004 with Kerry, the Clinton camp will do close to nothing to help Obama. They already have their eyes set on 2012. There’s no debate here.

LIES OF OBAMA;
LIE NUMBER ONE – BREAKING PLEDGE TO FINANCE CAMPAIGN ETHICALLY
LIE NUMBER TWO – TYING MCCAIN TO BUSH AFTER DEMOCRATS HAVE APPLAUDED MCCAIN FOR YEARS AS BEING DIFFERENT THAN BUSH
LIE NUMBER THREE – TAX CUTS FOR 95% OF AMERICA – OVER 30 PERCENT OF AMERICANS ARE NOT PAYING FEDERAL INCOME TAX, SO THIS IS A MATHEMATICAL IMPOSSIBILITY
LIE NUMBER FOUR – SARAH IS A FRAUD – THE FACT THAT SARAH HAS MADE SOME REFORMS IN ALASKA IS INDISPUTABLE
LIE NUMBER FIVE – I WILL BRING NON-PARTISANSHIP BACK TO WASHINGTON (BY PICKING THE MOST PARTISAN SENATOR AS YOUR RUNNING MATE AND BY TAKING ON YOUR OWN PARTY ZERO TIMES ?)
LIE NUMBER SIX – THE SEX ED IN KINDERGARTEN BILL WAS ALL ABOUT PREDATOR PROTECTION AND NOTHING ELSE – SIMPLY NOT TRUE – GO READ IT YOURSELF
LIE NUMBER SEVEN – I RESPECT THE DIGNITY OF HUMAN LIFE – RRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT – YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT BABIES BORN ALIVE DIE IF THEIR MOM WANTED IT THAT WAY – DISGUSTING
I COULD GO ON – BUT LIE NUMBER ONE (OR 7) WAS BY ITSELF ENOUGH TO TURN THIS INDEPENDENT INTO A REPUBLICAN

It is not surprising to see more and more Democrats jumping to Sen. McCain’s side. When coming down to leading the country, it has nothing to do who has the best issues, and it all comes down to who can implement the right policies. And stand up to your own party, and uphold the principles you believe in.
I am an independent. This Nov, I will not vote for Mr. Obama.

Barack Obama can’t kill those of us who will never support him like Cousin Odinga is doing, so instead he is working deliberately to kill our spirit, our dignity, our status as human beings, and our choice of President. Remember, this is the same man who eliminated all of his competition when he ran for State Senate.

The Clintons don’t like Obama right from the start.Now they have to eat humble pie by supporting Obama.They are doing it reluctantly.You see it is a US$20 million question.The Clintons have dredged up a US$20 mil.debt during their primary campaigning and they need Obama to retire this debt.Well,the typical Obama sees the Clintons weakness
and take advantage of the Clintons situation.He has shown no respect for the Clintons and are squeezing the Clintons for his benefits.He has told the Clintons this,”now you help to campaign for me and I will see what I can do about your debt”.No firm commitment at all.He has no sincerity in helping the Clintons.That is why he did not choose Hillary as his VP running mate.For whatever reasons,this stupid decision has now come back to haunt him.The Clintons are slighted.So you cannot blame the Clintons.

As much as I’d hate to see Obama win this – I really don’t want him to come back to IL. In the 2 years he’s been our “senator,” we’ve acquired one of the highest unemployment rates in the US, worst public school ( where guns are normal ), and a tax hike so our govenor ( who helped Obama get into office ) can take a private jet from Chicago to Springfield daily. Thanks for helping, Barack!

To Moonbat – my guess is you’re African American. Why do you feel Obama is ‘your’ candidate and Clinton owes it to ‘you’ to support ‘your’ candidate. ‘Your’ candidate and ‘your’ public leaders trashed Hillary and Bill throughout the primaries, outright callng them racists. It is the Clintons who should be asking ‘you’, after all they did for ‘you’, why ‘you’ stabbed them in the back like that.

Chris_C: The Kerry campaign, like the Gore campaign before him, tried to distance itself from Clinton. He was willing to, and did go out & campaign for Kerry right after having bypass surgery. if he did not want Kerry to win, he had one wild & crazy way of showing it–putting his own health at risk. That is definitely the sign of someone who wants his party’s standard bearer to lose.

“JZ, the problem with saying someone lies and lies is the other side can point out how the other side lies and lies.”
Kitty, this is what every mccain supporter keeps telling them selves. Another is that all politicians lie so therefore supporting mccain is just fine. But I made it pretty clear that the point is NOT that politicians lie, but tha mccain has crossed the line in terms of these lies by some huge margin.
In fact, to such a point that people are starting to take notice in many areas. The difference being that when they point out mccain’s lies, it’s EASY to show why and what he’s lying about. Where mccain supporters have to struggle to invent things about Obama. But yes, you have a good point in a sense. Even if Obama points this out, mccain and his supporters will just hit back with stuff that looks the same even if it’s not true. As for people who agree just because they like and support Obama, I say that’s not fair. They should do some research on both sides and true to feel out the attitudes of both candidates fairly. As for having a real argument as you said, I do have a real argument. The only thing is is I’m not about to load this blog with page after page of details explaining just why mccain has crossed the line. — It will usually be the young 20 somethings that will get nervous when they learn mccain is such a big liar. Their parents will reassure them that all politicians lie. Then they feel good and vote mccain anyway. So yes, I know, no matter what I say, it’s pretty much useless. But for myself. I was very careful listening to both men. I’m also older and have seen a few of these races. I can not 100% prove which is better of if obama is 100% truthful, but it sure looks like mccain has been the big liar this time around. That said, I’m not a blind left or right kind of person. I’d not like obama had he been as bold as mccain in terms of deception. You have to remember, mccain’s campaign was not working and obama was in the lead. Then they copied his theme of “change” etc. Little by little I lost respect for mccain by doing what he was doing. However, I will admit mccain’s moves have helped him some.

Posted by: jz | September 19, 2008, 8:33 pm 8:33 pm

The fiasco that Obama provided in Coral Gables, Florida is further indication that the ‘Obama suit’ is not really empty. It’s just a confused mixture of everyone else’s stuff — the stuff that Obama wants to identify with, after it proves successful. He cannot take ownership of oversight and regulations in the Wall Street crisis. The foundations of that were proposed by his opponent years ago; and is now implicit in the actions taken by Bush and the bi-partisan team developing the bailout plan.
Before he publicly boasts of having a team of economic advisors, Obama should first learn who they are, and how to pronounce their names.
Before he publicly boasts of wisely refraining from providing the details of his recovery plan, he should first have one put together for him.
Obama is so-far-in over his head, he doesn’t know whether to scratch his watch, or wind his butt.
At the first debate, we’ll get a chance to watch him do both.

Prime example? That don’t seem like a very good example of why someone would/should be scared of obama or supporters. Just because a coworker misunderstood you, or maybe had their own stupid issues, don’t mean even 1% of obama supporters are like that. It sounds more to me that you simply didn’t want obama, but are justifying it with this explanation. So now you have this fear that if you do anything but worship him you’ll be called a racist, but that just doesn’t sound that likely to me. If you word things carefully and point out the REAL reasons behind what you say, MOST people will believe you.

I agree with President Clinton
John McCain is a great man.
He is also a leader!
He led on Iraq by pushing the surge
strategy that has worked.
Obama has only recently admitted that the “surge” was a success.
He is a follower.
McCain lead on the energy crisis
pushing for lifting the ban on off-shore
drilling and suggesting the use of
nuclear, wind, solar and bio-fuels!
Obama suggested we should stick it out
for 15-20 years until wind, solar,
and bio-fuels are perfected and suffer
$5-10 gas prices until then.
He has only recently come around to
supporting limited off-shore drilling.
Again Obama is a follower not a leader!
The same can be said about the
financial crisis as McCain has stated what his plan is and Obama is waiting
to see how things play out so he can
get the best political advantage out of
it!
The choice is clear!
You can vote for a leader like John
McCain or a calculating clueless
follower like Barack Obama!

The surge strategy is a relative success – it has only worked to calm down Anbar province. Baghdad violence is as bad as it ever was. The bottom line is: the whole adventure is only succeeding in drawing Iraq closer to Iran than ever. This idiotic war is a mistake that will cost the country for years – Obama is right.
Off-shore drilling? It will be 20 years before the infrastructure is in place to actually bring oil out of the ground! Don’t you get it? We need to stop relying on oil PERIOD – Obama is right.
McCain’s “plan” for the resolving the financial crisis was to propose a “study group”, complain about the government bailouts and threaten to fire the SEC chairman! Even today he was yarbling about this. We need to repeal the Gramm-Leach-Bliley act that McCain supported and end the laissez-faire administrative oversight of the Market – Obama is right.
The choice is clear – you can vote for an out-of-touch candidate who continues to support out-of-touch, knee-jerk approaches, or you can support Obama!

Will also encourage every one else to see that there is no legacy worthwile to support in terms of Bill, because they have destroyed it themselves. If she even hopes to run in 2012, she had better get that out of her head because there is no way she will ever be able to garner any support from large segments of the democratic party. They are playing with fire, and they will be the ones to perish in it together with the party. Read the headlines now – The Demise of the Democratic Party by the Clintons!

Here‘s a News Alert. McCain and Palin could not buy the Truth. They are such liars. It amazes me that there are people who are still supporting them when McCain showed his lack of having a clue with the Economy and with Foreign Policy. McCain and Gramm for the past 26 years have torn down regulation. McCain is known as the Deregulation Senior. Now Wall Street and the failure of a 158 year old banking institution, first he didn’t recognize it with the stupid comment about the Economy being fundamentally sound. Then after the World recognized the seriousness and comments by Mr. Greenspan that this is the economic crisis of the century, and after a night’s sleep, McCain woke up with a revelation. He then said we are in an economic crisis. Ya think ???? He said let’s get a 9/11 commission. Then he said let’s fire the president’s SEC Chair, until he found out that even if He was the president and not Bush, he would not have that authority. Then he said he would fire the FEC Chair which makes absolutely no sense. Then he blamed it on Obama which is stupid and then he tried to attach Obama to Fannie Mae by lying, when the truth is his own Campaign Manager is a Fannie Mae lobbyist and he has actually 19 total Fannie Mae lobbyist currently.

McCain is a senile liar and not a man of character and integrity. He is just a desperate, pitiful man who will do try and do anything to win. He helped Palin’s husband and her staff obstruct justice by ignoring subpoenas. The crazy insane people even tried to blame Palin’s illegal actions on the Obama campaign when no one even knew this woman 3 weeks ago. She had already committed her abuses and illegal activity and corruption long before anyone knew or cared who she was. Because McCain did not do a good background check, he chose a woman who was under investigation for abuse of authority and other offenses. Not President or Vice President Material.

I can’t believe Bill Clinton has become such an @ss! Shame on him. He’s letting down all Democrats. Shameful.

Posted by: Jill | September 19, 2008, 10:44 pm 10:44 pm

Firstly, where is the transcript? The link? The video clips? From what you posted, it would appear that Clinton was stumbling to not badmouth other people. He was being civil. Most Democrats are civil. He was not endorsing Palin. He was commenting on how she has handled herself as a candidate, and how that is affecting the McCain campaign. He was not saying she’d be a good Vice President. This article is speculative, at best. Mostly, it is misleading.

Posted by: Meg | September 19, 2008, 10:59 pm 10:59 pm

Why do these politicians keep trying to make it all about them?
Bill, it’s our turn now. It’s not about you, hillary, mcCain, palin, obama or biden. It’s about what we need for our families and communities.
The pendulum has swung way to far to the right. McCain and Palin have shown that they are completely unreasonable, and not leaders you can count on to talk straight or even keep their cool in a crisis. A Snake oil sales force to be sure. What in the world is this ‘populist’ stuff? What? AND while keeping up with lines about throwing Social Security to Wall Street; a plan to encourage employers to dump health care insurance? What? Excuse me? Mr. Bush TAX cut – Deregulation McCain? What the.. are you and party girl palin smoking?
Though I completely disagree with his primary persona and his economic policies, McCain should definitely regret not picking Romney. At least he is familiar with the field of economy. It’s unfortunate for Republicans that many Rs could not get over the fact that he is a Mormon – well, that, and something about only having shot vermin.

Screw Bill and Hillary Clinton. If this is any indication of how selfish they are, then they are useless in my book. Hillary Clinton in 2012, you’ve got to be kidding. It ain’t going to happen no matter what happens in this election. Obama/Biden 2008!!!

Posted by: caliguy55 | September 19, 2008, 11:43 pm 11:43 pm

I’m a little confused. Let me see if I have this
straight…..
If you grow up in Hawaii, raised by your grandparents,
you’re “exotic, different.”
Grow up in Alaska eating moose burgers, a quintessential
American story.
If your name is Barack you’re a radical, unpatriotic
Muslim.
Name your kids Willow, Trig and Track, you’re a maverick.
Graduate from Harvard law School you are unstable.
Attend 5 different small colleges before graduating, you’re well grounded.
If you spend 3 years as a brilliant community organizer,
become the first black President of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter
registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters, spend 12 years as a
Constitutional Law professor, and spend 8 years as a State Senator
representing a district with over 750,000 people, become chairman of the state Senate’s
Health and Human Services committee, spend 4 years in the United States
Senate representing a state of 13 million people while sponsoring or co-sponsoring 131
bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and
Veteran’s Affairs committees, you don’t have any real leadership
experience.
If your total resume is: local weather girl, 4 years on the city council and
6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000 people, 20 months as the
governor of a state with only 650,000 people, then you’re qualified to
become the Country’s second highest ranking executive.
If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years
while raising 2 beautiful daughters, all within Protestant churches,
you’re not a real Christian.
If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, and
left your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month,
you’re a Christian.
If you teach responsible, age appropriate sex education,
including the proper use of birth control, you are eroding the fiber of
society.
If, while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with no other
option in sex education in your state’s school system while your unwed teen
daughter ends up pregnant, you’re very responsible.
If your wife is a Harvard graduate lawyer who gave up a position in a
prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner city community, then
gave that up to raise a family, your family’s values don’t represent America’s.
If you’re husband is nicknamed “First Dude”, with at least one DWI conviction and no college education, who didn’t register to vote until age 25 and once
was a member of a group that advocated the secession of Alaska from the USA,
your family is extremely admirable.
OK, much clearer now.

I find the media’s and particularly ABC’s obsession with the Clintons morbidly amusing. They’re only playing up this story because it’s an attention-grabber. Remember the sensationalism in the lead up to the Clinton’s speeches in Denver? All the talk of PUMAs went away pretty quickly, didn’t it? Much like this phony hit-job on former President Clinton, it’s because it wasn’t substantive or newsworthy at all. Whether you’re a Republican, Democrat or independent, don’t trust the mainstream media.

Obama=”ego first”–he lost this woman Democrat’s vote when he picked a publicly-disgraced plagiarizer over Hillary. Nobody will vote for Obama because Biden is on the ticket. 20-30% more Democrats would have had Obama not put his big ego first by rejecting Hillary and her supporters. Such hubris and arrogance. And you complain about Bill Clinton? Obama’s message to women voters: don’t care about us. So the feeling is mutual. Good luck rallying the male vote and perhaps the Palin-hater vote (your best bet Obama–go after the new woman on the scene and try to destroy her). Lovely. What happened to my former party?

Slick Willy is right on this one. But he best keep his distance from Palin. Her hubby will kick Willy butt in a New York Minute!
It just destroys the urban left when heartland sensibilities are in ascension. You guys always act startled, then incredulous, then miffed, then pissed, and finally venal, when Americans remind you that a majority of us do not believe a handful of heavily populated urban areas should control our country.
Uppity urban people can’t control violence, crime, civil responsibility (people ignoring their neighbors pleas for help), or their out-of-control risky behavior populations in your over populated back yards. Too, metro-centric bigots have the gall to assume rural Americans should genuflect and kiss the ring of the secular progressive paradigm that is destroying our culture, and threatens to destroy the rural way of life – that would be people like Chicago’s Barak Obama — no thanks.
The secular progressive paradigm has caught the venereal decease (or worse) and is trying to give it to everyone else before they get the cure they are running from: two big needles full of antibiotics in their collective (pun intended) hind end, named John McCain and Sarah Palin!

rural americans was talking about Alaskas crime rate. I get it. Bill said Obama was going to win how many times? He agrees that Palin was a star at the time, but fading. her compelling story is coming into the spotlight, as republicans are complaining of her. Alaskians are coming forth every day. My question for the last blogger is, what do you consider urban. Wasila? or just Alaska in general? Bill just kept smiling as though distracted. He was thinking about those e-mails of hers that he read. Pretty reveiling. :)Will Penthouse still offer a photoshoot after she loses. Bill and I both hope so.

Democrats4McCain, I don’t mean to break this to you but McCains Pastor teaches that the Jews and Muslims will destroy the world if we don’t wipe out all the middle east. He still puts out volger propaganda for War, even though Hilter already died. Please pass that on to McCain.

Women4Palin, I think Bush’s wife and all the other first ladies may not like you for that comment. Remember Bill Clinton had a few woman at the White House. But I do believe Hillary should run in 2016. That way the Democates will hold the House for at least three terms. Republicans and Democrates, continue uniting for Obama and Biden.

Maybe President Clinton’s reason not to be too enthusiastic about Senator Obama has to do with Senator Obama’s association with certain Pakistanis: Mohammed Hassan Chandoo, Mohammed Askari Chandoo, Wahid Hamid and Muhammad Hasan Chandio; and,what happened during Obama’s 1981 visit to Pakistan, during a time when Pakistan had imposed marshall law and only certain persons were allowed in the country, mainly Muslims. Maybe President Clinton still needs to know how a college student, who could hardly afford to live on a daily basis, could fly off to Pakistan, associate with weathy Pakistanis, meet influential people of the society, etc. Maybe President Clinton is wondering if Senator Obama, during his meetings, ever met and talked with someone else who was residing in the Karachi region: Osama Bin Laden. Maybe these are some of the reasons President Clinton still has reservations concerning Mr Obama.
Also, maybe President Clinton is wondering why Senator Obama refuses to open his records from Columbia University and refuses to have any of his former Columbia University friends interviewed.
By the way Chandoo Brothers are broadcasting their hatred for this country via their website: http://www.chandoo.com.

What is there to be confused about? The man chose to join and remain in a racially polarizing church for 20 years. He chose the home of an admitted unrepentant terrorist to celebrate his birth into Chicago politics. He has never run a city or state, or balanced a budget. never served in the military or commanded a squadron.
Frankly I am confused as to what youre confused about.

ELECTION 2008
Judge delays setting trial in Clinton fraud case
But accuser begins seeking sworn testimony from high-profile witnesses
——————————————————————————–
Posted: February 22, 2008
1:00 am Eastern
© 2008 WorldNetDaily
Peter Paul says this photo shows him, and his wife, Andrea, celebrating his business deal with President Clinton (Courtesy Hillcap.org)
A judge in Los Angeles yesterday allowed Hollywood mogul Peter F. Paul to begin taking sworn testimony in his $17 million fraud suit against former President Bill Clinton, but a technicality delayed establishment of a trial date.
California Superior Court Judge Aurelio N. Munoz ruled Paul’s legal team can begin seeking depositions from a host of big names – including Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton – that allegedly were witnesses to an effort by the Clintons and top Democratic leaders to extract millions of dollars from Paul in illegal donations and then cover it up.
Munoz is expected to set the trial date at an April 25 hearing. He said yesterday in court he could not set the date, because defendant Jim Levin, an aide to President Clinton, must be served notice again. Levin did not respond to the original complaint, and Paul’s legal counsel at the time – the Washington watchdog Judicial Watch – did not file a notice of default to verify that fact before filing an amended complaint.
The complaint says Bill Clinton promised to promote Paul’s Internet entertainment company, Stan Lee Media, in exchange for stock, cash options and massive contributions to his wife’s 2000 Senate campaign. Paul contends he was directed by the Clintons and Democratic Party leaders to produce, pay for and then join them in lying about footing the bill for an August 2000 Hollywood gala and fundraiser.
Paul attorney Colette Wilson told WND she has 30 days to service notice to Levin, and he will have 30 days to respond.
(Story continues below)
Levin is a key figure in the case, Wilson said, because he helped conceive the Hollywood event then contacted Paul to underwrite the costs. Paul claims Levin later was directed by President Clinton to sabotage Stan Lee Media by convincing Paul’s Japanese partner – in violation of a confidentiality agreement – to incorporate a new company instead of investing another $5 million with Paul. The loss of that badly needed capital ultimately caused Stan Lee Media to fold, Paul maintains.
Wilson said she had a brief discussion yesterday with Hillary Clinton’s lawyer, David Kendall, outside the courtroom and came away with the impression Kendall was not going to make it easy for Paul’s team to depose the senator.
Paul said he is working on securing one of the country’s top lawyers to lead the discovery process.
Kendall, who was traveling back to Washington yesterday, has not replied to a request for comment. Los Angeles-based Clinton co-counsel Jan Norman also did not reply.
Sen. Clinton was dismissed from the case as a defendant, but Munoz already has made it clear he won’t accept any attempts to block Sen. Clinton from serving as a material witness.
In court April 7, 2006, a Paul attorney told Munoz he “anticipated opposition to taking the deposition of Senator Clinton. I assume we’ll be back to court on motions of that.”
The judge replied: “Well, any opposition is probably going to be dead on arrival, if that will – if you understand what I’m saying, Mr. Kendall.”
Paul claims former Vice President Al Gore, former Democratic Party chairman Ed Rendell and Clinton presidential campaign chairman Terry McAuliffe also are among the people who can confirm Paul engaged in a deal with the president.
Paul contends his case will expose “the institutional culture of corruption embraced by the Clinton leadership of the Democratic Party,” which seeks to attain “unaccountable power for the Clintons at the expense of the rule of law and respect for the constitutional processes of government.”

As a woman I was pleased when Sarah Palin was chosen to run with John McCain as his vice presidential choice. Naturally, I thought that all groups that deal with issues every woman faces would be overjoyed. Most were, but not all.
The one group that says it stands for women’s issues showed its true colors by not supporting Sarah Palin. That organization even has “women” in its title. It’s the National Organization for Women (NOW).
By saying that Sarah Palin is not its kind of woman and therefore not worthy of its support, it is saying that it only supports politically correct women, code words for ultra-liberal, far-left Democrat women.
If you decide to keep a special-needs child instead of getting an abortion, NOW will not support you. If you love your country, NOW will not support you. If you are anywhere to the right of Nancy Pelosi, you need not apply for its support.
Because NOW has shown us it won’t support Sarah Palin, that’s all the more reason we should be voting for her.

As a big Hillary supporter, I hope to see Hillary run in 2012. That won’t happen if Hussein Nobama wins this election.
As a woman it is only natural that I give full support to Palin.
I will never understand how ‘NOW’ can support a misogynist like Obama. That man hates women. ‘NOW’ is a hypocrite!!!!

The problem with HIllary running in 2016 is that she will be 69 years old, and Bill may be due for more heart surgery around 2020. Sixteen years in the White House would have worked fine with a Clinton/Obama ticket. By 2016 Obama will be a good age, 55.
Obama rejecting HIllary’s offer of Clinton/Obama shows that he lacks the judgement and character to be President — at any age.

Regarding Clinton’s comment on Palin, I would simply add that it’s refreshing to finally see a Democrat treat the Vice Presidential candiate on the Republican ticket with a modicum of respect. Attempting to cast Palin as stupid and inept is a sure way for the Democrats to lose this election. Clinton is issuing the wake-up call: Never underestimate your opponent. Smart man!
“No, she’s a– she’s an instinctively effective candidate,” he said, “And with a compelling story. I think it was exciting to some, that, that she was a woman. It was exciting that she was from Alaska. It was exciting that she’s sort of like the person she is. And she grew up in a, came up in a political culture and a religious culture that is probably well to the right of the American center. But, she didn’t basically define herself in those terms,” Clinton said.

Posted by: Kyle | September 20, 2008, 1:46 pm 1:46 pm

Thanks to the Obama campaign for re-introducing race, racism, racial annimosity, and anger into the 2008 presidential election.
Why would the Obama Campaign need the Clintons? Afterall didn’t the Obama Campaign, with the help of the news media, infer or claim the Clintons were racist? Now, the Obama supporters are screaming because Clintons refuse to grovel before Obama. Suppose the Clintons simply said: “Regardless of experience, qualifications, speaking ability, association with known criminals, friends with terrorists, and haters of the USA … Despite all of this, simply follow the African American voting pattern and vote race. Since African Americans are voting based on color, and because no one wants to offend the African American community, we recommend everyone follow their (African Americans’) example and vote along racial lines. That is 95% African Americans for the African American candidate and 95% of the European Americanss for the European American candidate.”
In the meantime,President Clinton, realing from the taunting by the African American community, was in Africa doing his best to help in the prevention of AIDS, malaria, and other catastropic diseases running rampant in parts of Africa. And, before that, as President, he appointed more African American judges than any three presidents combined and they will be on the bench for life, if they so choose. Yet, because he said LBJ signed the Voting Rights Bill and Jessie Jackson also won South Carolina, he was labeled a racist.
Concerning Gov Palin: President Clinton is correct in his praises. So many women, however, are the first ones to jump on the “Let Me Attack Her First” bandwagon. Lots of women are opposed to Gov Palin’s stance on abortion. Well, since I cannot have an abortion because I am a man, I don’t want to try and put myself in a woman’s place. However, as a man, if I was thinking about getting serious with a woman, I would rather the woman tell me she has two children that to tell me she has had two abortions.

Can voters believe that a candidate understands them and shares their concerns?
What are their concerns? The issues for USA are poor economy, broken infrastructure, exported professional jobs, lack of medical insurance for many Americans, homelessness, and over burdened borrowing from other nations. Who best understands these issues? Obama.
This is just part of the total answer. The major part is whether many older blue-colored workers, older under-educated women, and fundamentalists Christians can accept a highly qualified part black American as their president.
Since 1950, we Americans have come a long way, but we still have a long way to go to free ourselves from the yoke of our prejudices. If Senator McCain wins this election, it would be greatly the result of our prejudice. If then, we should stop calling ourselves the leader of the free world, when we still have subjugated a major part of our society?

As a private citizen, he can praise McCain & suit Palin w/ no repercussion. But as a Democrat top leader, his comment makes him a traitor to his own party. His commenting of his wife economic idea also make him still in the campaign mood. What a pity.

Posted by: Sutter197 | September 20, 2008, 9:56 pm 9:56 pm

Bill Clinton is playing a very dangerous game to serve his own greed for power. He knows the only chance his wife can be a president is to have Obama lose in the 2008 election. Then in 2012, his wife can run against either McCain or Palin with a very high chance of winning because McCain/Palin will make the nation worse. If his plan suceed, I pity American people, who will be suffering for the next four years.

Posted by: Sutter197 | September 20, 2008, 10:11 pm 10:11 pm

Wow, why do we have to make every election about the political parties? Why can’t we make it about the issues? So, Bill Clinton is a Democrat who happens to respect a Republican? Why is that a problem? Shouldn’t this be about what each of the candidates can do for our country? I don’t care what party the next president comes from, as long as they are willing to address the problems that this nation has at this moment. I’m a Republican, and am considering both candidates. They both want to make a change in our country. But they can’t do that without the help of Congress, who, just like all of you, don’t want to cross those party lines and vote for the other “guys” issues. I have read several of you say “Grow up.” Yes, it’s time to grow up, and vote for the person who can get the job done. Not vote the party line.

I lost whatever respect i had for Bill Clinton. even as a matter of party loyalty, he should at least play up his party’s candidates. or at least shut up rather than imply that he is luke warm or praise the opposition more in no so subtle ways. ” Palin is an instinctively effective cadidate”???? what that means is that he understands how fake people operate (like himself) and admires it when he sees it. Knowing him and his family, they will soon enough disgrace themselves and will eventually fade in to mediocrity. Good riddance.

The pundits are wringing their hands asking, “Why can’t Obama win?”
When is someone gonna tell the truth?
It is because Hillary Clinton felt the nomination was hers. She refused to accept that she lost and dragged the race on endlessly. When she knew all hope was gone she cut the Democratic party in half and endorsed John McCain. The stench of that betrayal still hovers over lots of family dinner tables. What should be a mood of unity and anticipation and celebration rings hollow.
Perfect set up. The Clintons are so narcissistic, they sucked up all that false praise from the right wing agent provocateurs. They actually had Hillary dig her own grave and now they watch the Dems point fingers.
Meanwhile, Cheney is up in Alaska giving VP lessons……If the first woman to be President is a moose hunter from Wasilla, the Republican party can thank Hillary. Drill baby drill.

He let people in his Senate district in Chicago reeze in their apartments and didn’t lift a finger to help them. He was on the take from Rezko.He won’t help everyday Americans. He is in it for himself. Rememver Rev. J Wright that is the real Obama.

Jimbo: I hope this post goes to the top because people like you, need the facts, BEFORE you post. You said that if Obama wins, he will impose the fairness doctrine. IT has already been imposed!! IT IS: THE MCCAIN/FEINGOLD Bill, written into law by George W. Bush and took effect NOV, 2002. If you and other MCCAIN supporters really looked into his background, you would see the monster behind the mask, that you want running our country. Do your homework, please, before you vote!!

Bill Clinton is a traitor to all Americans! As one of the most intelligent leaders we have ever had, he knows the score, and he knows McCain’s ads are lies, and he knows McCain’s economic dirty dealings and plans for war, yet he says McCain is an honorable leader? Yes, right, McCain is honorable given Clinton’s low moral code. I will not forgive him for this! I will fight Hillary’s 2012 presidency in every way that’s legal!

and the undermining of Barack Obama officially begins now.

Idiots support each other. Bill is starting to look like more like the petty, small, snake that we know he is. Have some dignity and keep your lying mouth shut. Palin is as much a fool as you are… thank goodness you have no credibility among voters! This attempt at sabotaging Barack’s campaign is so obvious…and like all other attacks, will be unsuccessful. Your career is over, don’t but a nail in Hlary’s coffin too by being bitter. IDIOT!

Wow, its amazing how some Obama supporters want to imply that McCain supporters are racist simply for not supporting Obama. It doesn’t occur to them that some people simply have a difference in political philosphies.

skip the bullshit,anyone not scared by the prospect of president palin is a fool. you wanna debate, you have my email. i’m tired of the ad homminum bullshit of people who refuse to think, the same folks who have brought this once great nation to brink of ruin. the gop has controlled the executive and/or legislative branches of gov. for 26 of the past 28 yrs.for them to disclaim resposibility is one more sorry betrayal of what we were once, and who we should be again, torture is not american, welfare for the rich is not american. Figuring out who we are and where we need to be is. We have, at our best, stood for everything that sings, the hopes and sorrrows of what it means to be human…the delays in these acknowledgements, hard fought, are who we are and,like everything truly cool, always in danger

This post by Pablo P- “Well, Bill’s an honest man and McCain-Palin will do a better job and he knows it.”
Excuse me? Bill has been called many things, but honest is not one of them. I don’t know how anyone can forget all the lies he told not only to his wife but to this Country. Also, his judgment is not always sound, so I would not promote either his honesty or judgment as an endorsement for your candidate.

During the primaries I recall Bill saying to an audience that politics is a contact sport, and if Obama can’t stand the heat then get out the kitchen. This was his justification for Hillary launching the negative kitchen sink tactic. Clearly implying that he has nothing against running negative campaine ads. Then I see him on Larry King accusing Obama of wanting him to run a negative campaine against McCain, a man he proclaims to admire, a man who called his daughter ugly and referred to his wife as the bitch… I have never been fooled by the corruption of Bill’s politics. I am just finally relieved that many others have finally gotten the chance to see him for what he is. Obama, Hillary, and the Democratic Party will fare well without him. Their individual and collective gifts to our planet will not be ceased by his evil. I am neither Dem or Rep, I feel they both have something to offer. But after 8 years of extreme right political agendas have ruined the economy it will take a more leftist approach to bring balance and correction to the problems we face as President FDR proved during the economic time in our history. So there is no reason to fear Obama, he will only be a third of our great government.

Why, Bill, why??? Don’t you know EVERYTHING is on the line? How much of a selfish pig can you be??? Palin is nothing and you know it. McCain is even less. Vote, everyone for Obama. We have got to save what is left of the country. Bill Clinton….shame on you.

Chris Rock called Bill out hilariously and pointedly about this on David Letterman the other night. Anyway, for those seemingly unclear on the concept upthread, yes it is completely wrong and disloyal, and probably racist for Bill as an elected democrat to turn on Barack, who is the Democratic nominee. Especially as someone who was once facetiously but genuinely embraced as America’s “first black president.” He was happy to milk the support of African American communities for his own presidency; now he’s showing his TRUE colors.

Divide and Conquer…the oldest tactic in the book.
Chris Rock, and anyone who believes this nonsense, are falling right into the hands of the Republican strategists. Don’t you realize that this is a way to resuscitate the rift that existed between Hilary and Obama? This is a tactic that will force Obama to alienate Hillary supporters, so that they can stay home on election day, or worse, vote for McCain. Obama is too smart and is ignoring this supposed “betrayal by the Cliintons” strategy. He too has paid complements to McCain for his heroism as a war hero…does this mean that Obama is sabotaging his own campaign by having paid complements to McCain during past interviews, I think not? Obama’s supporters need to ignore this tactic and the ad that McCain is running, and realize that Bill CLinton and Hillary are truly supportive of the Obama-Biden ticket. Listen to the full interview, ignore the clip that McCain posts. Let’s not feed into McCain’s attempt to start another brawl btwn Hillary and Obama…McCain is desperate as he trails, and will resort to anything.
