    I'm so tired of people arguing that Obama is bad because of the name Obama or because of his middle name- Hussein- neither of which he chose or had any control over. That is not an intelligent argument. That's racist and stupid. And Hillary uses high profile people to back her just like Obama does- just like all politicians do.

    Mzzim NAFTA was a bad idea from the beginning and made to sound good. It was to increase corporate profits at the expense of the middle class. Oh, thanks I forgot to wash behind my ears today! Go Obama!! By the way, look back at JFK's experience prior to running. He wasn't exactly speaker of the house for 20 years.

      I think you need to clear your eyes first, because your ears have failed you... do your research first:

      EXACTLY THE QUESTION SHOULD BE WHY OBAMA SHOULD QUIT THE RACE ?

    WOW! There must be about a bazillion comments on here - about half and half, I'd say, and pretty well split between well-reasoned, partially reasoned, and insane (on both sides). I must say, tho', after having to listen to Mrs. Clinton's blaming her husband's woes on "the vast right wing conspiracy", I take some personal pleasure that the folks who are sticking the fork in her are the ideologues of the left, who have found their new "boy toy" in Sen. Obama. So, as a somewhat disinterested observer, let me say that I find Obama to be an engaging, eloquent and, yes, dare I say it, charismatic speaker. I also have a hard time figuring out what "Change We Can Believe In" really means. IF it means "Let's all have blind faith in change" (which is just a modest rewording of the slogan), I'd have to say it's a pretty fair summation of him. Put simply, I can see the suit, but I can't discern that there's anyone inside of it. Meanwhile, Sen. Clinton is suffering the same fate which Republicans have railed about since Nixon-Kennedy, biased reporting on the part of a mass media which has picked a favorite . Sen. Obama has been given a free ride and Sen. Clinton is being nitpicked to death. How can she beat him when the people who are supposed to report the race have already called the outcome?

    After watching Hillary in the past few weeks exposing her true nasty self-I can clearly see why Bill needed a Monica! How many of you out there are married to a Hillary and only wish the divorce process was easy to get through. Well, do marry Hillary and regret the trap of a long miserable marriage of 4-8 years.

    • Posted By: bucknut @ 02/25/2008 8:12:59 PM

      Michelle Obama is nasty too. 1. Has to seriously consider supporting the Democratic nominee other than her husband. 2. Is not proud to be an American unless her husband wins the presidency. Nasty nasty little woman. No wonder the New Orleans convention didn't want her lame *** last week.

    Mike, your status in the eyes of the world community can't go any lower than it is. Does George W. Bush ring any bells?*



    *(Clinton, a decent presidente, got impeached because of a sex scandal, while Bush, who has commited crimes against humanity, who lied to you and then admitted having lied to the people, who basically signs away your rights and continues to do so, got reelected and finished his second term.)

    It is obvious that the media has been beating Hillary Clinton and her family for weeks. It seems apparent that they are for Obama or is it? It could be that they want McCain to win because that might happen if Obama is the Democratic choice. I here Obama state he is for change but that is the same sound we heard from the current president and look where that took us. I think we need to go with Clinton and have the experience we need to get out of this mess. The fact that she is a women is just the icing on the cake. Recently the men have been doing a pretty crappy job why not a women? She just might show them up.

    Obama states he's not a muslim because he's been a member with the same church for 20 years. Has anyone checked out his church? www.TUCC.org
    They pledge an allegance to Africa. NOT THE USA.
    NOT MY PRESIDENT. NOT NEVER.
    I'll vote for McCain too.

      Bubbles.. Please take your CAPS lock off... psoting in all caps is akin to "yelling"
      Also, please get your facts straight... one should vote based upon logic, not emotion.
      Unfortunately, if Obama wins the Democatic nomination, he may not be able to beat McCain.
      If he convinces Hillary to take him on her ticket as Vice-President, then he would be able to have the time for the American public to get to know him better, and will have a better chace at winning the Presidency after Hillary's two terms are completed.

  • Posted By: jcgs777 @ 02/25/2008 8:05:57 PM

    If Hillary wins so many democrats will either not vote at all or vote Republican

    • Posted By: jonimiki @ 02/25/2008 8:11:09 PM

      Mrs. Obama would be the first.

  • Posted By: KateWhalen55 @ 02/25/2008 8:11:08 PM

    Since when does a slim margin lead constitute a reason to "withdraw gracefully to avoid humiliation"? It seems to me that media and celebrity are playing more of a role in this very important presidential race than the voters. Regardless of Party -- I would encourage other readers to be informed -- by the candidates and their merits -- instead of celebrity happenings or biased editorials.

  • Posted By: USproud @ 02/25/2008 8:11:05 PM

    Of course she should bow out. However, she and her husband's ambition will not allow her to quit. She will continue to use whatever means necessary, including inuendos and outright lies to smear Senator Obama.

    Hilary for president, I think not. First of all it is unconstitutional to have a woman as president. Second, she is too menopausal, I am not sure who thinks a woman???s hormones are settled down at 60 years old, but a woman???s hormones never settle down no matter how old they are. I have a real issue with a woman getting pissed off over something small and making a bigger mistake then the presidents who have come before her. As a woman I don???t know another woman who is not hormonal 24/7 365. But my biggest reason is the fact that a national leader is supposed to go into other countries and be able to speak with other leaders and come up with rational decisions. How is a woman supposed to go into another country where women are not even talked to by men? How is she supposed to go into a place where women are not allowed to be in the same room as a man while politics are being talked? She will not be respected in their country as a woman, let alone as the president. There are too many things wrong with a woman being president that will make things much worse for our country.

    And just remember this, since every one is entitled to free speech and their own opinion, if you don???t like what I have said, TO F*#$ING BAD!

      As a Marine spouse myself you sicken me and disgrace all military branches of service with your ignorant rant about hormones. Instead of fanning the ever burning flames of female bashing you would do good to educate yourself on who/what this country really needs for a President.

      As a military wife myself, you sicken me and disgrace every branch of service by spouting off your ignorant rant about hormones. WOW, if people like you are voting for the next president based on hormones we are in some serious trouble. Seems to me, that as the spouse of a Marine, you'd educate yourself on who/what this country needs for President. instead of fanning the ever burning flames of female bashing.

      Marinewifer500, why don't you learn to spell or at least learn some proper grammar before you post such an IGNORANT comment. You give women a BAD NAME.

      Churchill once said that talking to the average voter for five minutes was the greatest argument against democracy. You eptiomize that very well.

  • Posted By: gofcort @ 02/25/2008 8:10:04 PM

    Obama says he's not a muslim because he's been going to the same church for the last twenty years. Has anyone checked out his church? www.tucc.org
    They pledge an allegance to Africa, not the USA.
    Not my president. Not never. I'll vote for mccain too.

    I am the mother of five children. I would be ashamed to be acting and behaving the way that she is. It is so wrong. I will not have a woman who acts like she is losing her mind, and being mean, it's al sour grapes crap.I am originally from Pa., and I will tell you right now ...you have lost Pa., Ohio and many more to come.
    Go out with grace, this is the time to show if you have it within you as a human being.

    • Posted By: beaker87 @ 02/25/2008 8:09:37 PM

      What is she doing that is so bad. If you are going to riducule her at least be specific so I can judge if what you are saying is fair. You sound a little like an Obama supporter, we need change but I can't tell you how it's going to happen.

  • Posted By: davidbriner @ 02/25/2008 8:09:21 PM

    No, Hillary...don't you dare quit! You're Hot! I love your ideas...please, stay with it! You Go Girl!

    Hillary Clinton is the ONLY qualified candidate for a president of this country. If she is NOT the democratic nominee I vote republican.
    Obama will have to learn on the job site -we have no rights to allow that. He sounds like a communist leader -always full of great optimism and big promises. Wake up people.
    happthere.Wake up people up people
