    Bill brought NAFTA here and Hillary was "all for it". Now she says outsourcing is a bad idea and that she knows how people who have lost their jobs feel. B.S. She doesn't know how I feel. I lost my job to outsourcing. She is a "multi-millionaire" and has absolutely no idea what the poor and middle-class need. She will say and do anything to get a vote. She is old-school politics, making deals under the table and telling the public what they want to hear.

    I'm tired of her constant whining about Obama not having experience. By the way Hillary, how much experience did JFK have when he was elected.

    The Clintons will do anything to get what they want except this time they met their match. Mr. Obama is a respectful decent person who is sincerely trying to help every person who lives in this country. A CHANGE is sorely needed, 20 straight years of a Clinton or Bush running the country was to bitter a pill to swallow. If Hilllary had won, it would have turned into 28 straight years of Clinton-Bush. Placing all our chips on these two families at this point has been a bad move, it's time to go in another direction.

    Like Hillary said a couple of weeks ago- It took a Clinton to clean up the first Bush mess it will take another to clean up this Bush mess. If you don't understand politics ALL of them shut your mouth. Whites are less prejudice today than ANY other color. Take a look around! As far as the Clinton's go- When Bill lied....nobody died. Ahhhh the media. POLITICS & RELIGON-2 things you should never talk about on the first date remember? Just a bunch of trash talk to get all of you rough necks rubbed the wrong way. Have a great day now ya hear!

    I support Obama, as change is drastically needed in this country. I do not see Clinton or McCain as candidates with vision, stamina for fighting the special interst groups or candidates that are in touch with the younger population. Vote Obama!

    I guess Michelle Obama's comment was taken as she meant it and not what others have tried to portray...... Even after she made the so called " I hate America" comment.......... Sen Obama went on to win Wisconsin.. Go Sen Obama...... you knew that this country would not easily embrace you and alot of people really admire you for sticking it out and keeping your campaign professional.

    Will all the media conspiracy theorists kindly take a seat and chill for a while? The results to date all point to one pretty simple thing: Obama is running the better campaign. Name recognition and political skill alone should have been enough to get Mrs. Clinton the nomination. It has not and it will not because her campaign fell short strategically, tactically and every other way that matters. It is what it is...

    Where is all of Obama's millions coming from?? Check out this article:http://www.nysun.com/article/71113?page_no=1

    Could it be that, given the way things have turned out, when Pres. Clinton alleged that Sen. Obama was presenting ???fairy tales??? he was actually forecasting what Sen. Obama???s campaign theme song should be by using the lyrics of the well-known song ???Young At Heart???? The first two lines are: ???Fairy tales can come true, it can happen to you/If you???re young at heart.??? So, now that Wisconsin has said its piece, Sen. Obama could start with the first line, and then the crowd, which would almost certainly know the second line, would chant: ???If you???re young at heart.??? This would avoid the risk of pure ageism, which would unnecessarily offend The Clintons and Sen. McCain, by shifting the emphasis from Sen. Obama being just young(er) to his being ???Young[er] in heart.??? It would also avoid offending the older members of Sen. Obama???s rapidly growing constituency. Maybe Pres. Clinton is better at forecasting than he???s given credit for!!

    Why is it always the media who is blamed if a candidate does poorly, or another does well? The clinton's were practically defended by media armies throughout the 90s, with no view but their own moderate brand of centrist, middle-of-the-road, both-sides-of-every-issue governance, cynically clinging to power for the sake of power. Now it's the media's fault that americans are turning out for a candidate who actually challenges us to sacrifice, and do better? I have respect for Mrs. Clinton, but her campaign is flailing like a dying bully, dashing itself against those who have decided to reject the past and move beyond fear, and threats, and the self-interests of Democratic Royal Family. It's over, Hillary. America has decided -- and our nation will be better for it.

    Mr. McCain, I congratulate you on your future presidency. Like so many independents, I will be voting for you as opposed to Senator Obama. A lifelong Democrat, I cannot and will not stand for this imposter to be elected. Hopefully, all other independents will follow.

    • Posted By: slapfour @ 02/20/2008 11:43:36 AM

      The only democratic imposter here is you.

    • Posted By: slapfour @ 02/20/2008 11:38:33 AM

      You're a moron. The only democratic imposter here is you.

  • Posted By: BKra @ 02/20/2008 11:02:44 AM

    Sweet! Go Obama, Go! I never liked, trusted, or respected "her" or "Bill" and I only hope Americans will see "through her", too! Now, she's got smear tactics, as a last resort - typical - showing her "true colors"! Obama for President, 2008! God Bless America!

    • Posted By: slapfour @ 02/20/2008 11:41:59 AM

      One, You're a moron if your not voting. Two, the only democratic imposter here is you. McCain has surrendered any credibility he had with his appeasement of a tired neocon ideology, based in fearmongering and questioning of patriotic loyaties. "Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel"(Samuel Johnson)

    Wow..... It is really shocking but not, how the Clinton supporters are bitter and very disrespectful... Dianness you are truly not getting your point accross and your term of Afro Americans is very disrespectful to other African Americans.

    No Traction: I WILL TELL YOU WHY. MEDIA HAS FORMED A FIFTH COLUMN. OBAMA IS THE DARLING AND MEDIA WIPES AWAY IF ANYBODY TRIES TO THROW DIRT ON HIM. .. O NO.. HE IS A GOOD BOY.. NO REAL CHECKING INTO HIS CHILD HOOD, EARLY YEARS, AFFILIATIONS, AND IF SOMEBODY TRIES IT WILL BE POLITICALLY INCORRECT.
    AT LEAST , THANKS FOR ALLOWING US TO BLOG ABOUT WHAT WE FEEL ABOUT THE MEDIA.

    Comment: What are Hillary's accomplishments for her 35 years of xperience ? Standinfg by Bill in the White house or holding Bill pants when Monica is performing...... You know what I mean ?

  • Posted By: Northern Neighbor @ 02/20/2008 11:19:01 AM

    Seems that a candidate for the job of Commander In Chief of U.S. Armed Forces who so badly misjudged the strength of the "enemy" Sen. Obama, as Sen. Clinton did, is hardly a good candidate for the job!!
