Women's Work

Oh Gawd, What is wrong with this woman ? I live in Florida and I am totally tired of her and supporters.I listened to Comgress Woman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (Dade County Florida ) tonight on Hard Ball tell Chris Matthews that they are planning to take this to the floor in Denver if Hillery is not given what she wants. I am a poll worker here in Florida and I know many people did not vote because they were told their votes would not count. I resent the fact that the Congress Woman does not mention this but keep talking about all of the people who poured out to vote for Hillery. I also resent the fact they failed to mention that Hillery was here in Florida on the day of the election, January 29th, after she had agreed not to campaign here. If she is given this election, I will not vote for this decietful woman. I hope this is the end of Ms. Wasserman Schultz political Career because we do not need self serving people representing Florida.

The media has given Obama a free ride just as they did Bush and the backlash of the female voter among others especially if he chooses a man to be vp will be more than anyone has realized . A woman with Obama's credentials would never have made it this far. It's too late now because whomever is chosen as the candidate will lose and the country will be the worse for it.

@rj from mich - i know! as a floridian who responded exactly like you're friends - i can't understand why all the press coverage has been about the "disenfranchised" voters. blech.
i actually called the DNC to voice my opinion - someone clicked the msg. into a computer but i can't imagine my voice will mean much. (duh)
although an obama supporter, i can write in all honesty that if i were a hillary supporter (and either did or did not vote in the primary) i would still agree with everything you've written.

@liberated male: as a 43 year old female - i completely agree with you.

opinion: if mccain wins (due to clinton's self-serving crap- and i mentioned this last night) i will not feel sorry for anyone making under 120K who finds themselves taxed to hell and their kid drafted to iraq. neither will effect me personally.

additionally, (re: the latter statement) as a person who will (gladly) pay more taxes if obama is elected - i'm fast growing weary of racist people who have no concept of what's good for themselves, or their country.

dig this: i lived in downtown nyc during 9-11, and i'll never get over that. but as no terrorist organization gives a sh*t about west virginia - guess what?! you're SAFE anyway. but again, when you get taxed to hell by irresponsible leaders like mccain and your kid comes back from iraq (if at all) ready for the loony bin with no money for his/her future... i repeat: i will not feel sorry for you.

Wesley Clark, among others, has stated that the primary in Michigan must be counted because the principle of counting every vote must be maintained. He is correct to a certain extent. Every vote must be counted in a legitimately held voting procedure. Unfortunately, that is not the case in Michigan. I am from Michigan and our primary was most definitely not legitimate. Before the primary was held, the entire country was notified that the results would not count. I voted even though I knew my vote would not count. However, that is not the case with all people. When I have asked others if they voted, I have often been told ???why should I drive several miles to the voting site and stand in line for 10 minutes just to cast a vote that doesn???t count anyway???? I know of a number of people who did not vote because of this. We have a situation where we were told that the primary did not count which resulted in people not voting, candidates not campaigning and candidates leaving their names off the ballot. Obviously the announcement prior to the primary affected the results. This clearly makes the results illegitimate. This ???ipso facto??? primary cannot be construed as fair using any objective logic. To validate this fraudulent primary is to lie to and manipulate the voters in Michigan in a grossly unfair manner. You must not do this to us! We deserve better.

Hmmm. lets see.... 5 powerful women who worked for the Clinton campaign...but they're not really concerned about her campaign its about voter rights and gender bias...yeah Right!

And where exactly were these women when the DNC originally stripped Florida and Michigan of their
delegates? And where was Hillary?

This whole thing stinks!

Hillary changes the rules as she goes. First she signed to approve to not allow Michigan and Floriday's votes, and now because she is behind in delegates, she wants them to count. I am a white woman over fifty - do not count me in for Hillary, she is not my candidate and does not represent me. Furthermore this sexism claim is completely ridiculous. She has had plenty of people from both genders supporting her.

There are three things that made us (Clinton supporters) to lost this this nomination.
1) We and our candidate were not honest. Why did our candidate accept to abide by the rules of the DNC in punishing Michigan and Florida and then toward the end of the game will encourage us to create chaos in her favor? She is also aware that the DNC select its presidential nominee based on Elected delegates and not on popular votes. Why is she now singing the popular vote song. Is she honest in this song or she is misleading us and using us for a hiden agenda?
2) Why did our candidate decide to say only she and Mccain, a Republican (who is spreading lies about his supposed services as a war hero and as a POW according to his fellow POWs) will be better commander-in-chiefs? Had she not added Mccain in this argument agaist Obama, many Democrats who have acted otherwise. Democrats can't accept sacrificing one of theirs irrespective of race, age, sex, social status for a Republican presumptive nominee. This was the biggest mistake made by our candidate and her husband.
3) The motives our candidate had to continue the race should have been that she wanted to spur up people to join the party and not because other campaigns went up till June. It was even disastrious when she linked her stay in the campaign to RFK assasination.
Our candidate has dissappointed us and we are now being mocked even by priest from our own church (The Catholic Church). Although he uses another churches' pulpit, he is a catholic priest. Will our candidate walk out of the Catholic Church?
Thanks

Rosemary Composano is the kind of woman who really burns me up. The kind who wouldn't dream of calling herself a feminist, who achieved all she wanted to on the backs of those of us, women and some men, too, who decades ago worked to improve women's opportunities in this country, and who were denigratingly called "women's libbers," and whose accomplishments for all women in this country continue to be under-credited and even scoffed at. And yes, I'm for Hillary Clinton, but, no, that doesn't mean I'm for allowing the votes in Florida. I'm against it. The head honchos of the Democratic party in that state blatantly disregarded the party rules, thinking they wouldn't have to suffer the consequences. I for one am really sick of high-ups of anything, be it politics or business, thinking they don't have to follow rules. I feel bad for the ordinary voters, but the leaders of the party in their state are to blame.

Hey all ya'll Clinton supporters. Keep your chin up. Who knows what may happen involving this crook and fraud. Dual-citizen, mohammed messiah, whose core constituency....his friend...... not just someone he knows. Friends. The latest hell-bound "christian" Father Flamer. What is this Obama has for spiritual guidance. A Catholic Priest, A Nation of Islamothug Imam, and Rev. God Damn AmeriKKKa. Well, he is a Messiah, isn't he?

I'm Republican, and many of you know this about HolyRoller. I have become quite a fan of Sen. Clinton. She is one tough lady. And I'm certain, she loves this country, and would take whatever means necessary to protect this Homeland. Hussein, I have NO DOUBT, has definite plans to weaken the U.S.. Militarily. Politically. And Economically. It will not happen.

But hang in there. And if worse comes to worse....McCain can make Hillary a part of his Cabinet. Talk about unifying and crossing the aisles. I have heard the rumour, and would not be at all surprised.

Good Luck.....

NOBAMA!!!

Rosemary Composano is the kind of woman who burns me up. The kind who wouldn't call herself a feminist, who selfishly realized all her goals on the backs of those of us, women and some men, too, who were feminists, who decades ago, worked and were denigratingly called "women's libbers" so that vast improvements could be made for all women in this country, accomplishments that are still belittled and under-credited. Yes, I'm for Hillary Clinton, but I am strongly opposed to allowing the Florida votes to be allowed, even if they would help Clinton. Yes, it's a shame the vote of ordinary people of that state should go uncounted, but that is no one's fault but the head honchos of the Democratic Party of that state, who blatantly and highhandedly broke party rules in disregard of the consequences. I'm up-to-here with out-of-touch head honchos of anything who act that way. What's the point of having rules if you can break them without even a slap on your wrist?
