Advantage, Obama

Comment: Hillary is our all American mother, the most suffering, most loyal wife and mother America has ever produced and I 'm proud America can still produce such a faithful woman.

If she was my mother I would not admit it. I hope when we have our first woman president that it is someone that my granddaughter can look up to and respect. That woman is NOT Hillary Clinton! If everyone thought that "standing by your man" was the best attribute for a president then we surely would be in a worse state then we are now in this country.

It was to be expected that Obama would win a predominantly black state. That's a racial factor. Not necessarily a bad thing but the votes largely came in from the blacks for a black. And it is the turn of the rest of America to weigh in. I still think that beyond personalities, it would be more universally significant to elect the first woman president of the strongest nation in the world because gender transcends beyond race and culture.

It's really quite funny, Bill spent 20 hours of every day, every waking moment of the past three weeks stumping in every nook and cranny of South Carolina, but now that he's been defeated, he pretends that the contest meant nothing and that he conceded it long ago. What a joke.

Proof that Obama is divisive. His supporters say they will vote Republican if he doesn't get the nomination. Seems to me both his supporters and himself are crybabies.

No, Hillary didn't agree that Michigan and Florida shouldn't be counted. She just agreed to not compaign there ( a bad decision, though). Now if a person doesn't even the guts to stand up to the corrupt DNC, how can he or she bring about change? What a fairy tale!

Drop the "inexperienced" argument; Barack has had more years of experience as an elected official than Hillary has. She didn't even run for office for the first time in her life until 2000, and Barack had already been in the Illinois Senate for four years at that time. Compared to him, she's an upstart. His record is longer, cleaner, and better in every way. 100% rating from Planned Parenthood. 100% rating from Americans United. The most liberal member of the Senate, and yet still able to draw support from conservative colleagues. She has nothing on him in terms of experience.

Indeed, if Clinton gets the nomination, my vote goes to McCain because he will be a better devil and a better uniter than the Clintons.

The only thing that got stomped was Hillary in SC. The Clintons will do and say anything to try to get elected, including pretending that the SC primary never happened. Yes, it is time for a change.

seegreen, you are an idiot. Michigan and Florida were agreed to off limits because they moved their primary dates up and the party punished those states.

Let's talk about Kennedy. What has he done except humiliating the US in his ill-advised adventure in Cuba?

A vote for Clinton in the primaries is a vote for McCain in the general election. She is too divisive to win against any moderate Republican opponent. Her campaign has already torn her own party apart; just imagine what it would do to our country.

The rule for Obama is to avoid a state that he would lose, like Michigan, like Florida.

A vote for the Clintons is a vote to keep this already troubled country down the troubling road. Although the Clintons are capable and qualified to lead the nation, we simply can't afford the divisiveness created by the Clintons and Bushes to continue. Wake up and look around the globe, we are a super power in quick decline. Our power may be gone much sooner than we realize if we keep fighting among ourselves at the same time we unnecessarily fight everyone else beyond our borders! We shall be truely humble now to regain our status----of course you know I'm NOT referring to the kind of "humble" that GWB so famously declared when he "stole" the presidency 8 years ago.

Let's not forget another inexperienced president named Kennedy. Kruschev thought him too wet behind the ears to pose any serious threat to his Cuban plans. I guess things would have turned out better if we had the more experienced candidate Nixon win in '60. Of course, Mr. Experience did win in '68. Hey, how well did that work out by the way?
