why can not i read the comment
This guy, Altar, is just using his soap box to try to control people's voting. The same way the media tried to control people's votes by broadcasting that Obama had won by a landslide in New Hamsphire. How about FOX news broadcasting Bush's victory over Al Gore in Florida in 2000? Vote for Obama because you think he would make a good president, not because this douchebag says Clinton has no chance (which she does, Obama and Clinton are practically neck and neck).
The two democrats(Obama and Clinton) should agree and one stands down for the other so as to counter the advances of the Repulican Mccain
Barring some turn around i fear that Hillary is done for because the media has run Obama's smear campaign for him. Just read the headlines every post about Hillary describes her facts as attacks and the descriptions of her are usually negative. I bet Obama is a good man, but so is Santa: doesn't mean he should be president. His inexperience and belief in his charm will make him second guess dangerous situations. On top of that several minor issues are pointing to the fact that he does not believe in the importance of displaying his allegiance to this country. That is very dangerous for an American president. His mistakes on Pakistan, accidental pro votes in the senate and stumbles while trying to articulate a plan prove beyond a doubt that he is not ready. For the sake of my children and family I will vote for McCain I dislike republican politics but not enough to risk my own wellbeing. Thank you Mr. Alter and all the Obama media groupies for chosing your need for a story over the future of this country.
The two Democracts (Obama and Clinton) should agree and of them steps down so as to counter the advances of the Republican Mcain
If anyone ever wondered what was wrong with our country, just read the comments posted after this article. They illustrate the problem(s) rather well. I mean, what ever happened to the golden rule?? I don't understand how people can be so mean to each for merely expressing an opinion. Sure, you're free to disagree; this IS America after all. But turning a disagreement into name calling is utterly ridiculous and childish. You people need to grow up and put this wasted energy into something that's worth fighting for. If each individual worked on making himself/herself a better person, this country would be a better place.
dbogue, this is something worth fighting for! Sure, we all tend at one time or another to use harsh and thoughtless words, but since when are people perfect? This election is a highly emotional and volatile time for a lot of us. And at least we're talking about it, nasty comments and all. Mellow out.
Obama Hussein Barak, is America ready for a president whose faith is not clear in this world where some people kills in God's name?
Seven years ago American voters already got a Washington outsider who did not even know the name of the president of Pakistan during a presidential debate. They were sold this seeming logic - this outsider could fix everything in Washington. They also did it to punish Bill Clinton for his indecent acts. They were too eager for change and forgot to vex the candidate. Bush must be enjoying Obama's show everyday. I think he is going to tell Hillary that "you got it wrong. He plagiurized me,not the Massachusetts Governor who proved to be a total failure after promising so much to his electorate."
I admire Barack Obama's dedication & drive to lead our country with honesty & integrity. For the first time in my adult life, I'm excited and hopeful that America can change. I had truly given up on the "American Dream"... I vision Obama as a world leader, not just an American leader. He brings hope to our entire world!!! His time served on the foreign relations committee & his ancestral ties gives him favor & advantage concerning world issues. I would not be surprised if his choice as a vice president might be a Republican!!! He brings a smile to my face and Michelle Obama must be a very strong woman to help elevate and motivate her husband to not only reach for his dreams but my dreams also:)
"YES WE CAN!!!"
Hillary Clinton should absolutely NOT get out of the race for the presidency. She is so much more savy to the politics of Washington. Why are you men so afraid of a woman in power in the United States. Foreign countries have been doing this for years. I fear Barack O. and what he can do to this country. He says we need to work from the bottom up -- tell us what that means -- does that mean the people who are at the bottom of the social scale and try to change them. Having a black president isn't going to change that. I think you all are afraid to write anything negative about him because he is black - or shall I say half-black. Why don't we know more about his past and his affililation with the church that he belongs. No, all we hear from him is change, change, change. The Democratic party has to stop thinking about who is going to win against McCain and let Hillary run until the convention.
no no lady ! only a few countries that women get in power.
the US men Your life will be terrible if Hillary manage the power ,China is a example , though
women here are not president , they manage the money and family politics.

She needs to take her sneaky,lieing,power hungrey rear end out of the race and divorce billyboy and retire with a female companion who she can boss around.Once a Clinton,always a Clinton,we don't need or want another self serving President from the Clinton Clan,thats why she never divorced bill,so she could get into politics without being single.Go away Hellary far far away.
I like the lesbian reference you slipped in there. It's the 800-pound female gorilla in the room. Bravo!

I agree with Speedy1, Remember when Blacks would did not like Obama because he was not Black enough, or because he was rummored to have ties to muslims. All of a sudden after Oprah's endorsement his support started to grow. She makes arthurs millionares by doing the same, I am amazed after her preachings about women's rights, accomplishments, and ambisions that she would choose Obama over Hillary. Oprah might as well should of ran herself. There are many great women around the world but not to many that are respected as Hillary and Oprah are (now that is a dream team for women! just an opinion). American's are no fools we know why Oprah endorsed Obama, and not because he could get her a great deal on a house (like if she would ever need one). This is the same reason Hillary is losing ground in Texas. I go back to my hood where I grew up with some of the Brothas, straight up, that is why they say their voting for Obama and that they don't care about his speeches or what he stands for. It's not fair to Hillary
Obama keeps on using that he did not vote for the war. Was he afraid that the U.S. would maybe bomb some of his muslim connections. (we all know that he denies any muslim ties, "publicly"). Hillary may have voted for the war.........but do we not remember what happend in 9/11! You had to be unamerican if you did not feel like doing something about it. But she aknowleges her mistake and is willing to do something about it A.S.A.P. The whole country was mislead. She was not part of the investigation committee, she only heard their stories and thought it was credible, so did we all. Obama supporters need to really do more research. Don't vote for him because he's a great speaker or because he is black, or because Oprah said so along with all her celeberty groupies. Experience need to be a major factor. If I were to vote for someone because of color then that person would have to be Gen. Colen Powell. Race can not be a Factor Please.
I am a man voting for a woman. Besides all her experience and accomplishments she is also an experienced mother. Like a mother; I believe that she can give all americans that love that a mother has for her child. She would keep us secure, look out for our well being, and find ways to help us all progress economiclly. I know that she would defend our country like a lioness defending her cubs at the time of threat. Don't let our chance for progress slip away, vote for Hillary, the majority of us in Texas will.
Yes Hillary should pack, and take a long hike and don't forget to take Bill with her,it is over for that same old stuff and politics as usual we have seen for many years and have destroyed the countries economy .
It started to go down at the end the Clinton administration I have to admit, but Bush and his braindead helpers ran this country in real deep trouble with his warmongering and the results we can see every day we are close to bankrupty and deep in debt,what an fiasco this man has been for our country.It wil take years to bring this country back,and it won't happen overnight .
Let them all quit. That's EXACTLY who I want as a Commander in Chief and as an international representative of the United States. That's exactly why I'm moving to another country where I'm going to buy my big mansion. Even I served in the military and I'm still leaving, Your mess you clean it up.
People who have experience working in washington is the problem. The country is a mess because Obama is not there to lead it. What is Obama going to do? Fire them all and bring in new congressman that is willing to change his way. Create new senators from his magic silly puddy? He needs to know how to work with these people. But no. His plan is to bring hope to washington and hope that everyone sees the light. That is a plan that sounds vaguely familiar. I wonder why. Oh I remember that was Bush Jr. plan. The unifier he called himself . He was going to go to Washington and whip things up. Well thanks Bush for whipping washington into shape. Where would D.C be without you.
WOW!!! Let's all attack Jonathan Alter for having an opinion in an editorial article!!! What must he be thinking??? Maybe he should move to America where the Americans have a constitutional right to freedom of press...
Opinions from someone like Jonathan Alter have no place in journalism. It's just his opinion, and everyone has one. eal with facts, not personal feelings. I don't care what he thinks personally, but when it's published in a national magazine that many people see as devoted to telling the TRUTH about issues, I have a issue with that.
And the press also has an obligation to the public, which is clearly abuses.
I don't understand how people can be so mean to each for merely expressing an opinion. Whatever happened to the golden rule?? Sure, you're free to disagree; this IS America after all. But turning a disagreement into name calling is utterly ridiculous and childish. You people need to grow up and put this wasted energy into something that's worth fighting for.
Hillary knows how to get things done. You know what they say B@itch is the New Black. Hillary is my Rocky Balboa. The Russian doesn't have to win just because he has the decks stack in his favor.
I hate to say this ISawYourMommy....John Kerry said the same thing (and I know it is wrong) about our troops in 2006 and guess what, he is the big-swinging guy behind Obama's run and rise to these undeserved heights!
