    While Obama raised an unbeliable $32 million last month, he goes into Super Tuesday the underdog. The Wall Street Journal says Obama trails Clinton by large margins in polls in most of the big states.
    But as history shows, no amount of polls can predict what voters will do once they enter the voting booth. And both canidates seem very unlikely to give up the fight anytime soon.

    Billary is dishonest. Obama came up,, with no connections, against all odds.. Do u honestly think Obama supporters will vote for Hillary after Billary injected race and completely lied about Obama? If someone betrays their values to get ahead,,, how can u trust them with the presidency. Do the math.. Hillary, minus Obama supporters versus republican that hate the Clintons = another republican in Office. TRUE change.. Obama 08

    Eleanor,
    This democratic primary has made many journalists seem like rabid political hacks so it is refreshing to read someone who isn't dishing out extra helpings of partisan spin and can still write with some balance. (I think you're great on the McLaughlin Group, BTW). Most of the spin I see is pro-Obama and seems to be totally blind to the fact that he too is just a politician. What makes you think that the Obama campaign does not do "attack-and-divide politics". Just google "democratic primaries" and it is pretty evident that they do. Anyway it looks to me like "driving a wedge" is the abc of political campaigning so he would have to be a really transcendental candidate for that to be true. I'll vote for Obama if he gets the nomination but I do NOT believe that he can walk on water and more than Hillary. I do not think the Republicans or the media got the memo about Rove era politics being over!

    Obama had no connections? He didn't even want to be president until his campaign was virtually launched by Oprah Winfrey. He will be a poor president with his self described "hands off" approach to leading. Aka he's going to do nothing. We need a strong president like HILLARY CLINTON!

    It may be so because I am not an American and not knowledgeable about the "greatness" of her experience, but I wonder why so many Americans support an old woman who agreed with the war satarted by a man who will be referred as "war criminal" in history book. Majority of non Americans knew form the beginning that the man was telling lies. If the old woman didn't know he was telling lies, she is naive. If she did know he was telling lies, well

    Lillie: When she voted Yes on that bill withTed Kennedy and Joh Kerry, she was trying to protect the country. And maybe that vote did stop other terrorist attacks...we'll never know.

    When Hillary vated on the War, The country was united against Iraq. We were traumatized from 911. Hillary was the senator from New York..The Bush machine was successful in presenting their case (lies) The mindset was a lot different then. Also Obama did not have the necessary intelligence at that time to be qualified for his opinion.

    SENATOR HILLARY CLINTON IS GOING TO MAKE A GREAT PRESIDENT.

  • Posted By: Lillie @ 02/01/2008 6:11:13 PM

    When Hillary Clinton voted yes on the Iraq War, she demonstrated that her political ambitions were more important to her than the lives of thousands of people.

    Sen. Obama's posiition on the Iraq War is extremely unimpressive/. He wrote an article against going to war prior to becoming a Senator and then VOTES to FUND the WAR upon entering the Senate and having an identical voting record as Senator Clinton! What does this say about the Man's character? Why did he not lead the opposition to the war when he was in the Senate?

    Are you kidding me? Hillary plays nice for three hours and you think that makes her a "no lose" proposition? Stop drinking the Clinton Kool-Aide! They have already cut a wide swath of destruction and division in the Democratic party that we are only now recovering from. Obama is the only candidate capable of bringing the party and country back to gether.

    Areyou kidding me? Hillary plays nice for three hours and we are supposed to think that she's "change" and that she won't be the divisive force that she has shown so far? The Clintons have always assumed that Americans are too stupid to keep up, much less care about, their never ending list of character flaws. Fiannly we Dems appear to be pulling back the screen on the Clintons and see the monstor behind the machine. Obama is the only candidate that can actually make a change. The Clinton Co-Presidency is just business as usual . . . destruction, dishonesty, divisiveness, despair.

    While Hillary has some good points, I still say Obama is the one - he will beat McCain in November. He is already showing that he can unite this country in a way it has not been in a very long time....and he will do moreso when elected our President of this UNITED States!

  • Posted By: uuforyou @ 02/01/2008 5:20:54 PM

    We Democrats are in the best political position,
    unlike the Republicans we don't have to choose between two
    candidates who only represent part of the party.
    "Clinton/Obama! - experience AND change!" A dream ticket!
