    Sorry all. Obama is what is going to happen. New voters, and old Republicans like me are taking a chance on a grass root effort for meaningful change. Status quo doesn't cut it anymore and experience loses out in the face of charting a new direction away from the mess of the last 16 years.

    Hillary Clinto is the only candidate that is able to go in on day one and take complete control. WE NEED HER!!!!! Obama is weak.

    I am confused as to why the media says we are not seeing the "real" personal side of Hillary Clinton. As a former Clinton supporter, I think we've seen too many sides of Hillary in this primary run. I had to question myself and decide whether or not I believe she will be stable enough to be president of the USA. The crying, then the mud slinging and then the hugs and adoration after more mud slinging...at the least, it is confusing to voters and her supporters. As a African American woman, I believe anyone, man or woman, regardless of ethnicity or race, can be president, but I believe our presidential candidates should reflect stable and consistent views on issues and not have such extreme changes in behavior. Our USA is becoming more and more unstable in economy, in security, in health, in environmental issues, we need a stable president to help pull us together and get us back on track.

    As for the media trying to persuade Americans to withdraw support from Hillary, I don't believe that is the case. Hillary has caused herself more damage than anyone else. Her campaign ads degrade Barack. Still, if you were a Clinton supporter like me, you wanted to believe those ads weren't the real Hillary. I wanted to believe I didn't see Bill Clinton speak out of turn and take the low road. They seem to think it's correct to follow this usual path of political bashing. That may be how the game is usually played and how it was played in the past, but America doesn't want the games anymore. We don't want a president that's perfect, just one that we can respect and trust enough to lead our country in the right direction. One that has the right kind of experience. If the political bashing is the type of experience the Clinton's are proud of having, then I don't want that kind of experience in my president. If the extreme changes in views and stances on the issues that matter to America is the experience the Clinton's are bringing to the plate, then I'd rather starve. Because I and millions of other Americans are hungry for change. If Barack can bring that change, then I'm for it. If Hillary had showed she could bring about real change, then may be she wouldn't be losing votes now. Had Hillary at least acted like a president, if not a former first lady, and taken the high road, may be her character would have been able to retain the votes that are slipping away from her now.

    Agreed - It would be a stroke of political genius for her to get out at least by March 5th if not sooner. She cannot overtake the delegate lead by any stretch of the imagination. The writing is on the wall. At what cost would she fight for Michigan, Florida and the superdelegates to overturn the pledged delegate lead, the state lead and the popular vote lead? Surely she would look ridiculous trying.

    "Get Real" is correct - I admire Hillary, but it is time to face reality and realize that the party is a bigger consideration at this point.

    I'm so crossed between the 2 of these candidates in unbelievable. I truly love hillary clinton and what she stands for, but lately I've decided to open my mind and listen to what obama has to say and although hillary is a strong candidate I started to believe that Obama has shown progress and change in his young senatorial debut, whereas hillary has not. I'm not totally swayed by Obama's "gift of gab" but I do believe in the saying "show and prove." I hate when these people print these ridiculous assumptions, it like politcal gossip it's not over until it over, P.S. I'm still on the fence :)

    I think Hillary Clinton is too childish to run the White House, and as far as this campaign is concerned, she should "GROW UP".

    THERE ISN'T MUCH DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ANY OF THESE CLOWNS, ON EITHER SIDE OF THE ISLE. START TALKIGN ABOUT CUTTING THE SIZE OF WASHINGTON IN HALF AND I'LL HAVE SOME INTEREST. THE FED IS OUT OF CONTROLL AND ALL THESE BUFFOONS CAN TALK ABOUT IS SPENDING MORE. WONDER WHY THEY DON'T DO LIKE I HAVE TO DO AT MY HOUSE WHEN I HAVE A BUDGET PROBLEM? I SPEND LESS . FUNNY THING, WHEN I TRY O SPEND MORE TO SOLVE MY FINANCIAL ISSUES IT DOES NOT WORK OUT TOO WELL BUT THAN AGAIN, I DON'T HAVE THE LUXURY OF ILLEGALLY TAKING MONEY FROM OTHER TAX PAYERS TO PAY MY BILLS LIKE THE FED SEEMS TO THINK THEY SHOULD DO. I HAVE A MESSAGE FOR OBMAMA, CLINTON, AND ALL THE OTHER ALTRUISTIC SCUM OF THE EARTH THAT SEEM TO THINK THAT MORE GOVERNMENT WORKS, AND INCOME BELONGS TO THE GOVERNMENT TO SPEND AS THEY WISH. THA MESSAG IS, RESPECTFULLY, TO PLEASE GET OUT OF MY LIFE, MY BUSINESS, MY BANK ACCOUNT, AND GO TO HELL!

    It's become fashionable to vote for Obama. We're so hell-bent on being different and innovative, it's become 'cool' to vote for him. Yes, he's an amazing orator and very inspiring. However, my vote is for Hilary [even though I can't vote yet].
    The students at my school are rooting for Obama soley for the purpose of seeming tolerant. Sorry, honey, the world doesn't work like that. When I asked them what Obama's stances were, they couldn't name one thing. It's Obama's Godly image that's helping him, not his stances on the issues.

    sorry dallas, but there's one big problem. It's a grass root effect that has probably never been seen in this country before. New voters are coming out of the woodwork for Obama, and even some of us Republicans have crossed over to his side. It's all about being sick and tired of the status quo, and that is what will defeat Hillary and McCain. Experience doesn't matter, nothing is worse then the status quo. Charting new ground in hope of getting on the right course.

    To the True democrat you talk as if you are a True Idiot< Frist of all I think that maybe the issue at hand has to do with Race and nothing more. Obama is all for America He is an American and your talk of him sending troops to Kenya is Stupid I dare you say such a thing about a man who only wants to make life better for all of America, I can imagine that you are an ill educated person as well as a poor one at that. So rethink what you are saying and Give Our country what it needs( A Change)

    Ditto. I second ZeChooCho's comment. The Democratic party and its supporters had better get on with the program of uniting the party NOW! - if they're serious about occupying the White House. sfh1558

    It looks like Newsweek Rag....uh....Mag is saying Hillary needs to go home with her tail between her legs> Uh, to that I say NO BAMA!
    The media spin meister is way out of control. I would say you are way out of touch. She is still in the fight and Obama Hussein, now backed by non other then the Nation of Islam leader Farrakhan is green, naive and a member of a blatantly black church. No thank you very much!

    If any candidate has truly earned humiliation, it is Clinton. She is an embarrassment to every honest Democrat and a testament to the corporate fascists that now own the party. Clinton deserves no support from any American Democrat who truly believes in the founding principles of the party; she is an autocrat who is only on the national scene because of her husband. I am ashamed for those who support her.

    There is something about Obama that I just don't like...and no it doesn't have anything to do with the fact the he is half black, it has more to do with the fact that he comes across as a Dictator, not a Leader of our so-called free world. He comes across as smug and arrogant, as does his wife. They both look like they are wearing masks and we have yet to see their true personalities. Also, I want to know just where he plans to put the troops once he pulls them out. Hillary says she'll bring them home, he just states that he'll pull them out. I believe he'd put them in Africa, where he's not pleased at all about what is going on there. I for one don't believe any of the candidates should have pulled out. It sends the wrong message to Americans...like most of us don't have a say in the matter as to who we get for President. The whole system is corrupt and needs to drastically change. I wanted John Edwards. Think I'll still write him in since my state has yet to have our Primary, so apparently it doesn't matter what we think. Besides, it ain't over to the fat lady sings and the Primaries don't mean a thing when it comes down to the REAL vote. Everyone may just change their minds by that time, at which point the electoral college would have to do the same thing, if it's as honest as they say.

    A better idea would be for Obama to quit in favor of Hillary! Go Hillary! And help to stop the media from editorializing the vote away from the voters.
