    Comment: Barrack Hussein Obama has already addressed the domestic policy; the unemployment will disappear, he will create the millions of "green jobs" and so for ! Everybody will be happy !Now is time to move on and stay focused on the foreign affairs ! His priority will be the strong relationships with our traditional friends as Iran, Syria, Libya, Hamas and why not with...Al-qaeda ! And the special envoy for talks between Israel and Hamas will be appointed just Jimmy Carter ! He loves this job !!!....

    Comment: Great column, Jonathan! I can't believe every time there's a positive column about Barak Obama the number of racist hate mongers that come out of the woodwork to comment . It makes me sick!! Them with their thin veneer of respectability!! Keep wondering what they'll do when Barack wins not only the nomination but the Presidency as well. Maybe when they see their lives improve because of his leadership, they'll put away their sheets. One can only hope.

    One-degree of separation: Obama fires Middle East adviser over talks with Hamas
    Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) has fired Robert Malley, one of his Middle East policy advisers after Malley "disclosed" May 9, 2008, that "he had held meetings with the militant Palestinian group Hamas - prompting the likely Democratic nominee to sever all links with him," Tom Baldwin reported in The Times............

    Malley added that he and Obama went to law school together, but he said he has not played any role in the campaign other than as a very informal advisor. But, he added, "once it hits the Times of London it becomes too much of a distraction, especially since the McCain campaign seems to want to make this an issue."

    NOBAMA!!!

    Comment: After the domestic situation was addressed by NoBama, now he will stay focused on foreign affairs ! And priority #1 will be some strong relationships with our traditional friends as Iran, Syria, Ha-mas and why not with ...Al-qaeda !

    Comment: This is a sad time in America. Barack Hussein Obama has won the democratic primary. No way can Hillary win now. That means it is time for all of us that love America and believe in America should vote Republican. Let's get behind MCCain and pray that McCain will win and save America. Lets stop the Obama train from destroying America and all of our freedoms. Good bye, Hills. This democrate will vote for McCain in Novemeber.

    Comment: Simple Maths
    % Million
    White 74 221.3
    Black 12.2 37.1
    asian 4.4 13.1
    native 0.8 13.1
    other 6.6 19
    mixed 2 6.1
    100 309.7
    Hispanic included in the White and Black

    So the question become's how much of the population should vote for BO to win the general and can he get it. In the last election 39% american votes and Bush got 51% votes.(62million). So say BO need all this black's to vote for him that 37.1 Million. Thats equal's 62-37=25 million whites to vote for him. So the media is not showing the right math to the public. Hillary is a more powerful to win compared to BO. If he get the ticket and the above math would make him impossible to win. Unless america would vote a minority in to be the prez. That would really be great to see.

    Comment: Even the media is ganging up on Hillary-now she is REALLY in trouble. More superdelegates for Obama today.......trickle ..............Hillary is on Deathwatch at Slate.com. The Economist has Obama as the nominee on the cover. When the media, and the whole world is focusing on Obama, you know that Hillary is slowly burning out like a candle on its last burn.

    Comment: Obama took a punch, yes, and will take more unless he can dance away from her increasingly wild swings. Still, Hillary has been his secret weapon throughout this campaign. I imagine McCain will prove to be his secret weapon thereafter. Obama will likely be the next president. We, as a country, must still prove we can survive the criminals and destroyers soon to leave office ... perhaps to occupy cells ... and their enablers.

    Comment: We are hopefully becoming smarter voters and will not turn on a wonderful candidate for president because the republican media goes nuclear. Obama has major support and it is widespread among all types and ages of people. We will support the democratic nominee, but it should be Obama because we need a change from the Bushs and Clintons. It is time for fresh ideas and real solutions. Obama is ready and we need him as our president.

        Comment: pink eye...you talk a lot, but avoid anything you don't agree with. Defend your messiah. Here are the reasons that the Sinclair story is gaining ground.... Why can't he shut this guy up???

        The major parts of this story are (1)these are serious charges, including murder, but they have been unable to shut up Sinclair OR get his video's pulled from YouTube OR shut down his blog (2) his lawsuits are going forward, and he has retained the Sibley guy(DC Madam's lawyer) who says he will put Obama on the stand (3)the Chicago PD is investigating whether Donald Young(executed gay Choir director from Trinity) in actuality contacted Sinclair, for Obama, before his murder.

        The story is definitely not going away, and depositions have a way of sorting lies from truth.

        The lie detector test examination, turned out to be a fraud. The guy who read the test was not who he was presented to be. He in fact had no Ph.D as stated nor was the test and results made available for public scrutiny as promised. Whitehouse.com lied.

          Comment: OK - let's play your sad game. "I have personally heard from three very reputable sources that Holy Roller is a male transvestite, who enjoys some serious "back door" action from other men. Furthermore, he is running a crack operation out of his doublewide and is using that money to pay for a sex-change operation, so he can begin a new life with his true love interest, a lesbian waitress named Rainbow." "This has been verified on THREE websites and my neighbor's brother's dentist's son's college roomate was actually one of his clients!!!"

          OK - disprove my "facts" - DISPROVE MY FACTS . COME ON - DISPROVE MY "FACTS" - Wow, you are RIGHT!!! this is a fun game...

      Obama time, soon, very, very soon........MWAAAAAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

      "Towards the end, the last remaining Klintonistas it was said, got even more and more desperate - like wild animals, they began to turn on themselves, snarling and rending each other's clothes to pieces." "Some tried to tell even more and more outrageous lies and distortions - claiming that she was indeed, the Mesiah, others, that she was the forerunner of an advanced race of peaceful aliens, still others were seen trying to enter long deserted polling stations in the fifth month of President Obama's term. Dazed and confused they would stumble about day and night, ranting and tearing at themselves, chanting....always, chanting....... Wright......Wright......Farakhan....Farakhan....Michigan......Florida......Wright...Their slovenly appearances and soiled clothing only offset by the vacancy of their stares and the putrid stench of their loss. Some, it is said, set up a commune in the old nuclear testing facilities deep in the Nevada desert, constructed of old "Hillary - She's the One" and "Ready From Day 1" campaign posters. They would use her campaign buttons to try and send refelctive signals out to the stars, in the hopes that she might one day, return....

      Sad, very sad........

    Comment: Since Barack might be hired to be the next president, I thought I would read his senior thesis or any white papers, op-eds or magazine articles that he himself has written so I could read/see his thought process.

    Not his website policy positions or his books, but actually writings by Barack.

    I googled:
    Barack Obama's senior thesis
    White Papers by Barack Obama
    Op-Eds by Barack Obama
    Magazine Articles by Barack Obama

    I found nothing. zip.

    IF he is going to sit in The Chair, every American has the right (duty) to see/read how the man thinks and comes to his decisions.

        Comment: I think it's funny, also. O.K, why will you not answer the simple question. Why with all the slander and defamation laws, can Obama NOT SHUT UP SINCLAIR??? CAN'T get YouTube to pull the video. CAN'T get the lawsuits declared invalid??? CAN'T get the blog shut down(nearly 500,000 hits so far). These are serious claims. They include smoking crack rock, homosexual sex acts, AND murder. My goodness, any citizen could stop slanderous allegations. We are talking about a standing U.S. Senator. A contender for the Oval Office. But, he CAN'T stop Sinclair's claims from being continuously stated over, and over, and over...

        If Sinclair can provide proof of contact by the executed Donald Young, then Obama is in serious trouble. I'm really curious why Obama CAN'T shut this man up. Lot of other people are wondering also. I'm sure you are also.

These are more charges of his demonstrative errors in judgement and associations. The drug use is criminal, but charges are not pressed without physical possession. It's just another in the long, long, line of indications that he is a...crook and a fraud. Why can't he shut the guy up???

    Comment: My suggestion is that blogs be discontinued as a failed enterprise. The comments by GTX13 are a great indication that poitical blogs are the playground of the ignorant, the unintelligable, tho sort of electorate that really shoud have to take an I.Q. test before entering the voting booth. I guess one side effect of Democracy is that even the stupid have their say. Sigh....

      Comment: But see, that is precisely the problem. Intelligence is not a commodity, nor is it common.

      When the witless in their vast numbers can be herded like cattle to think and vote a certain way, we all get bad government. The smart must suffer along with choices made by the whims of these morons, that no rational or reasonable person would ever have made.

      Do you think it is a coincidence that she does so well with the poorly educated demographic? Have you ever really dissected the structures, formats and messages of her ads? They all, even single one of them have one dimension in common - pandering to emotions, NOT logic, intelligence or analysis, just raw emotions - usually fear.

    Comment: It really seems like a done deal. CNN & MSNBC just aired seperate footage of both Clinton and Obama leaving meetings with the Super Delegates. The reporter brought to our attention that Clinton walked out completely alone. Obama was almost mobed with the Super Delegates and other politicians jocking (reporter's word) for a position next to him. He was also almost mobed in the Senate as he arrived.

    Unless something big time negative happens within the Obama campaign, our boy has it .

    Go Obama....Go Positive Change for America

      Comment: Just saw she is pulling some new crap with FL/MI. She's sent an open letter to Obama, insisting that "they work together" to solve the Fl/MI seating issues.

      It's a pretty transparent gambit to anyone with a brain. She will insist on a solution that is extremely favorable to her, which of course, Obama must decline, then she will start in with he is "not a uniter," "wants to disenfrachise voters," etc.

      This really, really has become desperately sad. If I were not living it, I'd swear it was a nightmare.

        Comment: I heard something about the Fl & MI agreement on CNN. I only saw part of it regarding Michigan, she would receive 69 delegates and he would receive 59 delegates.

        Another thing, I really wish that the Clinton supporters and the media would let the whole "Duel Ticket" go. There would not be any love or trust between these "THREE" people. I for one would never trust her or Bill.

          Comment: That would be a disaster. As much as I support Obama, I would never vote for any ticket with her on it. He is smarter than that - he knows she would be political suicide.

    Clinton touts support from 'white Americans'
    Posted: 12:03 PM ET

    Clinton campaigned in Washington Thursday.
    (CNN) ??? In what appear to be the New York senator's most blunt comments to date regarding a racial division in the Democratic presidential race, Hillary Clinton suggested Wednesday that "White Americans" are increasingly turning away from Barack Obama???s candidacy.

    "I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on," Clinton said in an interview with USA TODAY.

    Clinton cited an Associated Press poll "that found how Senator Obama's support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again, and how whites in both states who had not completed college were supporting me."

    "There's a pattern emerging here," she said.

    Exit polls from Tuesday's primaries in Indiana and North Carolina show Clinton won about 60 percent of the white vote in both states. That percentage is down from the Ohio primary on March 4, in which Clinton won upwards of 65 percent of the white vote. Meanwhile, Clinton garnered 63 percent of the white vote in Pennsylvania on April 22.

    Speaking with the paper, Clinton rejected the notion her comments were racially divisive in any way.

    "These are the people you have to win if you're a Democrat in sufficient numbers to actually win the election," she said. "Everybody knows that."

    Obama spokesman Bill Burton called Clinton's statements "not true and frankly disappointing."

    Comment: TO HOLLYROLLER; I see that you have a new Obama smear tactic Larry Sinclair. This is even low by your standards. To everyone else if you haven't read Larry Sinclairs rantings, he is claiming to have engaged in illicit sex and drug use with Sen. Obama (THERE HOLLYROLLER HAPPY!!!)

    To anyone who is not familiar with Lisa Micelli, she is a psycho who has been stalking Michael Jordan for years, she claims to have a baby by him. By the way two DNA tests have proved that he is not the father, she has a blog also. My point is that Larry Sinclair is the same type of sad sick individual as Lisa Micelli. He is claiming that ALL of the reporters on ALL of the Major networks are on Sen. Obama's payroll to keep these "FACTS" hidden. He and Hollyroller are also claiming that Sen. Obama and Rev. Wright murdered a Trinity Church Choir Director. Sinclair and Hollyroller insist that they both engaged in homosexual acts with this man.

    THIS IS JUST GARBAGE. I posted this nonsense in the hope that Hollyroller will find some new BS to post. Hate is an ugly thing and you Hollyroller have an extremely ugly soul. Hollyroller is a racist and this is another poor attempt by him to disparage Sen. Obama. I guess he finally got the hint that the whole Muslim Terrorist BS wasn't working for anyone but him. This also proves that Hollyroller is a Homophobe.

    Basically you are a sick and tired individual with absolutely no redeaming qualities. GO AWAY!

      Comment: Larry Sinclair is a very sick individual who has a blog. After reading it for even a second, anyone with a working brain will understand that these are the rantings of someone who is in dire need of serious medication and should not be taken seriously.

      Hollyroller is another sick individual who enjoys spreading racial discord and hate then he has the absolute nerve to quote the bible. Every hate group throughout the world can find quotes in the bible, koran, torah etc and twist them to promote their positions.

      Regarding your reporting him to Newsweek. Newsweek does not care, they do not monitor this site. There have been treats to Sen, Obama's life, He has been called *** , His sexuality has been questioned and not one of those posters has been removed.

It is obvious that Jonathan Alter does not agree with your points of view. Go post your offensive blogs at Fox News where they will be well received.

    Comment: To HOLLYROLLER , GTX13 and all those Hillary supporters posting on this blog ,who can't accept defeat,: Obama won this contest way long ago in February. Many in the party won't ask Hillary to step down out ouf respect for her, but continuing to smear Obama(namecalling him) and his supporters(many more than Hillary's) does not do any good for your candidate. Do not play the race card any more. Obama has never been racist and hasn't even brought race to play. His critics have.Obama won big in North Carolina and it wasn't just blacks. He won among women, minorities, college educated and upper income brackett. Stop demeaning his supporters and making it sound like he has no support from many ethnic groups. That is an old argument and leads nowhere. There will be racists who will never vote for Obama, but they are a very smalll minority and not mainstream Americans. Stop spreading lies and innuendoes and smears. It is people like yourselves with your views who brought Hillary down-you have no place in American politics nor in this blog with your radical and marginal views.Even the much respected Hillary supporter, Diane Feinstein, is wondering about Hillary's argument on how she will win this nomination short of hijacking the Democratic convention in August. If Hillary does that, she will assure her political legacy as the destroyer of the Democratic party and all the good things she has ever done will be erased by her black mark on the Democratic party

      Comment: Great Post. I agree 100%. I am an Obama supporters and in the end IF Sen. Clinton were to win the nomination FAIR & SQUARE (ONLY) then I would unhappily vote for her. If the Super Delegates just give her the nomination over Sen. Obama then I will definitely withdraw from the Democratic party and there would be no way in hell that Clinton would get my vote.

    Comment: It will not be long before, the truth about the "limo love rides" hit MSM. What's the DNC gonna do if this happens in August or September. All a bunch of lies??? Then answer this...why can't a standing US Senator, and a leading candidate for POTUS, shut up Larry Sinclair. His blog is near 500,000 hits, and he has a lawsuit that is going forward. There are libel and defamation laws that should be easy to enforce, if these claims were all lies. The Senator is a lawyer isn't he.

      Comment: Please do not take this the wrong way, but your post is extremely difficult to read. Absolutely no punctuation, periods just one long run on sentence.

    Comment: McCain is not a maverick. He is pandering to the conservatives of his party and has moved to the right. He has reversed many of his past positions to gain support from the right wing of the republican party. Democrats, let's unite and vote to defeat McCain in November!

      Comment: His chance to win the GE, is very near 0%. The DNC would rather feel good about nominating a black candidate, for feel good purposes, than nominate a potential winner. Only The Tower of Babel DNC could find a way to screw this election up. But hard work and dedication to failure has resulted in a McCain landslide victory. Thanks Emporer Soros. Keep up the good work.

      NOBAMA!!!

    Comment: In addition to what I previously wrote, I urge all those democrats for Hillary to vote for a democrat in November
    The consequences will be catastrophic. McCain is not the moderate republican he has claimed to be in the past. If you are pro-women's rights he already has said he will pick ultra conservative judges that could overturn Roe vs. Wade. If you are against the Iraq war:he is a hawk and will use war instead of other diplomatic options to solve a crisis. If you are suffering in this economy, his policies will probably make things worse. He wants to keep giving the wealthy the Bush tax cuts. He still wants to give corporations tax breaks and so on. If you are an environmentalist, he has a bad record for that from all the environmental organizations. If you are for civil rights, for fairness and justice,:he didn't even support the Martin Luther King holiday in Arizona; he reversed his positions on torture, and for a host of other Bush controversial

    Comment: Excellent observations in your article. The game of politics has changed in the past few years-something the Clintons weren't ready for. They are still using the tactics of 1992. and they don't play well with the voters because the demographics have changed and the urge for change is at an all time hign. As a college educated hispanic woman over 50, I saw Hillary's pandering tactics from the beginning of her campaign. This turned me off completely. In Obama, though he is "an imperfect messenger" as he calls himself ,I saw
    a new kind of politics: the politics of not talking to American voters as if they were stupid, ignorant or puppets. I truly think his message of not pandering to certain constituencies, of uniting the country beyond race, class or income, of not caving in to the politics of fear and of using intelligent arguments to support his policies , is finally reaching the voters. I suspect in the coming months, he will surge again and his popularity wiill be at an all time high. If the media plays fair by reporting fairly the strengths and weaknesses of both McCain and Obama and doesn't resort to infotainment and distortion of the facts, I think Obama will have a real shot at being our first black president..
