    I believe she should drop out now and endorse Obama instead of putting all her energy in to the negativity towards him. It isn't hurting him it will only hurt her and and most likely make undecided people go for republicans. If she chooses to stay in the race she should only speak on what matters to us americans and not worry about looking for issues to go against Obama. I as an American would respect her if she took that route.

    I beleive in Mrs. Clinton, she knows her politics, speaks the truth and can change our country. She has the ability to deal with domestic and foreign issues, well seasoned. This is what we need, not a jr. Senator with nothing but hope ! Hope cannot change anything, STAY the course Hillary, your not a quiter !

    We need to get a different system than this old, copy cat, Roman political system of only having 1 leader. History tells us that this always has been controversial. A good guy becomes a worshipped hero, a bad guys can destroy a country. We don't need any of that. We just need ???good enough??? leadership. That???s what you get when you average out the good with the bad. So, we need to have 3 or 5 presidents instead of 1. Then on each topic they can democratically vote on it.
    So I suggest to get Obama, Clinton, McCain, and maybe even Huckabee and Nader, into the president leadership of 2009. The white house is big enough to give them all their own bedroom and office.
    Oh, and one powerful computer to calculate all their economical ideas with.

    The last I knew, Hillary was about 100 delegates down. Very easy to recoup with wins in Texas and Ohio. If that's the case, I'd say she has some momentum. What is wrong with you in the media. Get over yourselves and quit trying to crown a king before the election has even played out. You all do this country a disservice and are a part of the reason we are in the mess that we're in today as a country. It's long since time that you do your job again...investigate, tell the story, maybe put some historical context behind the story and leave your own opinions out of it. Who do you all think you are, Nostradamus??? And how's he doing? Do we not remeber Harry Truman's campaign???

    Bill was a good president so does his marital problems and lies make him a bad one? Hillary stood behind him steadfast does that make her a liar also?

  • Posted By: DWhitley @ 02/25/2008 9:04:47 PM

    OH...and I would also have more respect for the Mainstream Media if they were to bring forth this story so it can be addressed and put to bed once and for all.

  • Posted By: DWhitley @ 02/25/2008 9:03:54 PM

    Yeah? So - With all due Respect, Barack's disqualifying event is at his doorstep and he refuses to address it. I want the truth, Senator, about this rumored 1999 sexcapade with Larry Sinclair. I don't care if you had sex with him....what I DO care is that you allegedly used Crack Cocaine as a State Senator in 1999 and you're acting like you are Squeaky Clean when you're not. How can I trust you as President to admit your errors when you won't do it NOW?

    I would think more of you if you had the INTEGRITY to be truthful.

    A QUOTE FROM ANOTHER POSTER: "The reasons to vote for a particular canadite should NOT be based upon the idea of whether or not they are muslim, christian, or agnostic. There are GREAT, Intelligent, and caring muslims, christians, and agnostics. "

    I absolutely agree. And, frankly, if Obama is an agnostic, I think he should have stepped up as "Agnostic and Proud" instead of being two-faced and, once he decided to go for political office, turn into a Christian of Convenience just because he's afraid he wouldn't get elected if he didn't have a religious affiliation.

    That's my point. Personally, I think people have whatever religion they feel they need to have to help them cope with this human life and there's no one better than the other.

    But if he is going to be a liar and two-faced about something as important as his spiritual beliefs, then I don't trust him on other issues.

    My beef with the "college-educated" pseudo-statistic is that it's just a part of the OBAMA FAKE MARKETING MACHINE. There are just as many college-educated supporters of the other candidates, as well -- in addition to the fact that there are plenty of intelligent people who are NOT college educated. The OBAMA FAKE MARKETING MACHINE (which the press has failed miserably to investigate) is trying (apparently successfully) to make it sound like if you vote for Obama, then you are smarter, more intelligent -- either because you are college-educated or because you are voting the same way that college educated people would vote.

    I have to admit, it's extremely clever marketing. It seems to be successfully fooling a lot of people.

    I think that there's too much money at stake supporting her campaign to just quit. I also think that this has been a dead heat race from the beginning. We can't call it now because people want to support the flavor of the month.

    Regardless of whether you support Clinton or Obama the latter is gaining an insurmountable lead. Hilary would need to win the Ohio and Texas primaries by huge margins to have any chance of nomination. While the polls show her as competitive in both of these states, she simply cannot win by the margins required for her to gain the Democratic nomination in August.

    The Democratic Party is being pulled apart because it is forced to choose between two outstanding candidates. Do not let the rift between Obama supporters and Clinton supporters so weaken the party that we are forced to deal with another republican president for four more years.

      Thanks for your comment, very wise. I wish some of these hothead supporters for both candidate would look at the big picture. The media wants a republican (McCain) as president and will do everything they can to make sure he wins. Let's all of us Hillary and Obama's supporters defeat the media.

    Unlike some of Barrack's supporters who support the Illinois senator without knowing anything about the man or his "accomplishments", I have researched the senator's records and I'm sad to say the man's rhetoric does not match his antecedents and when his records come out he's definitely going to lose to McCain; funny enough this is not a secret among the media crowd, they know but they are hoping that a high disapproval rating of Bush and the Republican party is going to carry Barrack into the White House; to them I say remember the landslide of Richard Nixon over Hubert Humphrey in 1968 and ironically the democratic party was facing almost similar rancor. The strategy of attaching McCain to Bush will not work because McCain who despite the fact has been in Washington for ever, has forever been fighting the status quo; at least that's the perception of fair minded people; he's problems with the conservative base of the Republican party also helped to reinforce this notion. So we have on one side McCain who has actually worked to change the system and has sponsored so many bills aimed at cleaning many aspects of the system and the other side, you have a senator with less than three years of experience, no executive experience and is asking Americans to take a leap of faith with him; something tells me that the former wins out. I would think that you and your friends in the media would provide a level playing field and ask tough questions of your favorite candidate during the primaries so that he's sort of shielded from this issues if he eventually wins the nomination during the general elections campaign. Thanks to you and your friends, we shall be having a President John McCain as the next President of the United States and that I am 100% sure of

    • Posted By: Gemstone @ 02/25/2008 9:02:07 PM

      I agree! You wait if they are able to get Hillary out they will distance McCain from Bush if Hillary is in they will have to keep him attached. This is a planned thing by the Republicans and there behind public view special interest. My only question is this, is the media front people being duped by the owners and powers that be or are they just that stupid?

    Dear Pasbair, Just like you we are thousands of educated people that haven't been foolished by wrong advertisement pro-Obama. We have done extensive research and we are behing him 100%. Its time to put racial differences aside and vote for a candidate that will unite all of us: whites, blacks, latinos, asians, etc. He has the intelligence to surround himselft with people with a lot of experience. He has had the advantage to live with individuals of different cultures. He is fresh, authentic and has the energy, intelligence and right judgement to face the challenges that we encounter everyday as a nation.

    • Posted By: OdieTheMutt @ 02/25/2008 9:01:55 PM

      Anyone who supports Obama for president is foolish. He is not experienced enough to be the leader of the free world. Letting him run the country would be akin to giving a 16 year old who just got his license the keys to a Lamborghini. He is not ready for it. Don't let the media and Obama's oratory brainwash you!

  • Posted By: Mr Geeee @ 02/25/2008 9:01:49 PM

    Why is he such a bullshiter maybe his idea has merit. The chances of Hillary winning are slim indeed. Sometimes you have to runaway in order to fight another day. Some of these comments against Barack doesn't seem to have any bite at all. Barack and Hillary are the best choices we have available to turn this country around whoever you may like. And just because I like Barack doesn't mean I don't like Hillary I just like him more.

    Pauline 2215:
    " She our stay in the race. We need a qualified candidate who will be able to lead this nation, not just someone who talks a good talk."

    HAHAHAHA....Wow. This is the perfect example of Clinton's base support. Polls show that Hillary's votes come from the uneducated and the Hispanics. This certainly reinforces the uneducated portion.

    • Posted By: kyteacher @ 02/25/2008 9:01:46 PM

      I'm quite offended... I support Hillary!! I'm ALSO well educated!! I have a double major and a master's degree. Both were completed with honors. When I can afford it I will persue a doctorate... until then I read sociology "textbooks" for fun...

      Call me a geek... you're right. I take pride in my intelligence.

      How educated are you...

    • Posted By: JJM-NJ @ 02/25/2008 7:48:37 PM

      I'm sorry, but this is the most idiotic comment so far. I'm Hispanic, I have a college degree, and a masters; however I'm voted for Hillary; are you insinuating just because I'm for Hillary, I do not have the comprehension and understanding why I have voted for her? I think your comment is stereotyping a culture based on your uneducated persona.

      I think I lost you, I used to many big words in my comment.

    • Posted By: FrogHammer @ 02/25/2008 7:43:44 PM

      So you're a snob and a racist! Well that says alot about you, but hopefully not about most of the Obamanauts. I'm a Clinton supporter and guess what? I can actually read and write a coherent sentence.

    • Posted By: kelli3527 @ 02/25/2008 7:40:14 PM

      UMMM excuse me ,but talk for yourself, I'm a very well educated person with a college degree and also I'm white, and I support Hillary 100% .

  • Posted By: bucknut @ 02/25/2008 9:01:41 PM

    Pasbair, I wouldn't listen to Nader if you paid me. Where does he go every time he screws up an election? "Oh it's 2008...better hop in my Corvair and announce that I'm running for president". If he reallly wants to start a 3rd party, why doesn't he start at the Congressional level instead of these cute little presidential runs that only benefit the Repugs.

  • Posted By: MegCamp @ 02/25/2008 9:01:28 PM

    Will America Please WAKE UP!!!!
    The mindless masses are following an inexperienced little boy!!!
    People please wake up and realize that we need EXPERIENCE AND INTELLIGENCE in the white house!!!
    Our country is in terrible condition.
    Why would we want to put someone in charge that knows NOTHING about running a country????
    It is astonishing to me that people have forgotten how to think for themselves!
    I know (you know who) has a lot of money and influence, but, If people would just wake up from their zombie like state and think for themselves,,,,,,,,,,,,
    we might be able to pull out country out of the hell we are in right now.
    PLEASE PEOPLE, WAKE UP!!!!

    Obama would be the only thing to cause me to vote Republican for first time in 20 years. Stay In Hilliary

  • Posted By: Abdul AM @ 02/25/2008 8:59:46 PM

    After having BUSH in office for about 8 years, its only right to hire someone (Obama) to clean the *** Bush left all over the white house walls. I believe Clinton won't bring anything new to the Amercian people and, she did support the war on Iraq, for that reason she shouldn't be the one to run the white house. Its not just America, but the world as a whole waiting for the mad man whos runs the whitehouse to leave. But the real issue is, WILL the Americans choose a man/woman that will not only better the lives of America but the world aswell...

  • Posted By: DWhitley @ 02/25/2008 8:59:45 PM

    YEAH??? Well the Crushing Blow to Barack is at his doorstep.....COME FORTH MAINSTREAM MEDIA AND LET'S SETTLE THE STORY Re: Barack's Heavily Rumored Gay Sex/Drug Escapade with Larry Sinclair!! I don't care if this happened....I truly don't. But what I DO Want to hear is if you have the INTEGRITY to admit you're NOT as SQUEAKY CLEAN as you portray yourself. If you can't stand up and admit your mistakes that took place in 1999, how can we trust you to admit mistakes you will make as President??

  • Posted By: davidnid @ 02/25/2008 8:59:26 PM

    Will Obama salute the American flag??
