    HILLARY SHOULD NOT GIVE UP SHE IS DOING GOOD SHE IS WORKING HARD FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS PEOPLE. WHAT IS OBAMA DOING FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS? THE MIDDLE CLASS PEOPLE ARE THE ONES THAT NEED HELP I SEE MORE AND MORE PEOPLE THAT ARE FORECLOSING THERE HOMES BECAUSE THERE NOT MAKING ENOUGH MONEY AND EVERTHING JUST KEEPS ON RISING. WE THE MIDDLE CLASS PEOPLE NEED HELP YES WE GOT THE STIMULAS PACKAGE WHICH HELPED OUT ALOT BUT WHAT DOES OBAMA HAVE IN PLAN TO HELP US OUT? THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND I HOPE THESE ISSUES GET ACCOMPLISHED

      TruckerChic23- I hear you. I hope this helps explain-President Bush has made huge tax cuts for the rich people, so the divide between the rich and the middle class/poor is getting larger and larger. McCain would decide to keep these tax cuts for the rich. Obama would even things out, so that the middle class/poor can get a break instead of the people who have so much money that they don't have to worry about all the concerns you posted. I have those concerns as well. Obama is the type of politician that rolls up his sleeves to help the regular people. McCain just wants to stay in war and give rich people tax cuts and get rich himself. Hillary will help and there will be another chance for her or another woman in the future. Peace. Have a great night. God bless America! Obama '08!

      What Obama was handed on a silver platter was the issue that launched his campaign -- Hillary's vote for the Iraq war. Everything after that he won by better planning, better execution, better financing, better organizing, better everything.

  • Posted By: callmehandy64 @ 06/05/2008 8:35:40 PM

    Obama said what th people wanted to hear. Now that he got the nomination, he can shift positions to say what the more conservative voters want to hear. Total BS.

  • Posted By: skibummin @ 06/05/2008 7:34:41 PM

    Obama's strategy did work. he would have never won with just all primaries he dominated caucuses early and hung on.
    If the rules were the same as Republican party he would have been beat badly because of winner take all and she won the big states, it is not so he's strategy worked

    oh yea the dems are changing the rules to winner take all next time is the rumor

    I think he is doomed candidate because it is winner take all electoral college

    • Posted By: mruth @ 06/05/2008 8:22:02 PM

      Obama studied the rules of the game and understood them better than Hillary. This is the mark of an excellent leader. You cannot win a football game if you don't understand the rules, even if you are excellent at chess. It is strange to me that the Clintons, who won the primaries in 1992 and 1996, which were governed by the SAME set of rules, were taken by surprise in 2008. I have read, however, the Mark Penn, Hillary's chief strategist, did not understand the the primaries were NOT winner-take-all. This explains why Hillary lost.

    You know what? It's no darn wonder we Democrats always lose the important elections. What a bunch of baby whining and divisiveness. For anyone to say they would vote for John McCain as an alternative to the "other democrat" because they are going to "make payback" for the "rigged primary" and the "biased media". Give me a break. If you do that, you deserve whatever other atrocities come our way under Republican Dictatorship.

Obama needs more than "political Activist" and JR Senator experience to be qualified. People are Incensed and infuriated because in our minds (Our opinion to which we are entitled) the BEST candidate is NOT representing the party come November. It is a travesty how the DEMS have given yet another 4 years to the Republicans!other election aaw

    "Well, you know, I'd never say there's 'nothing' or 'never' or 'no way' in which I'd change my mind," Obama said of his withdrawal policy. "Obviously, I'm open to the facts and to reason. And there's no doubt that we've seen significant improvements in security on the ground in Iraq. And our troops, and Gen. Petraeus, deserve enormous credit for that."

    So we stay in Iraq a while longer.

  • Posted By: the2thdoc @ 06/05/2008 7:50:48 PM

    All that was said was correct. Although Obama's campaign was not perfect, his strategy worked beautifully! One must admire his organizational skills, his planning, his management and his delivery. For the most part, he offered the total package. Because of Clinton and Obama, more people voted in the democratic primary than any other primary in history. I'd bet twice as many people (or more) voted democrat vs. all other parties put together. Democrats will unify and join independents and republicans who are tired of the status quo vote for Obama. Change will come! And we're going to make it happen. And, you naysayers are going to be pleasantly shocked by the way our country will improve with Obama's leadership.

  • Posted By: Wise Person @ 06/05/2008 5:04:54 PM

    If Obama wants to have a peaceful presidential race, he had better ELECT MICHELLE OBAMA AS HIS RUNNING MATE!!! She is the ONLY ONE HE CAN TRUST. Clinton should lay low, and wait for 2012, when all the ashes would have settled from the 2008 election. She does not NEED to be on Obama's ticket as running mate, even if he should offer it to her. She is a FINE leader, who deserves to be PRESIDENT someday soon. Hillary has done too well in this anti-female world to ignore. I hope too, that someday, Michelle Obama will run for president. She is a TRUE African-American. Obama's appeal is international because he is in truth a Kenyan-American, .........and in that order. His dad was never an American citizen, nor, an American resident. This is most interesting for me to see, a FOREIGNER running for USA President. How COOL!!! I like Hilary, Barrack, and Michelle Obama equally well. I hope that ALL OF THEM will become a USA president. It does not matter who gets to do it first. But, NEVER count women out of good things; and stop disrespecting Hilary. She will one day make a SUPER-PRESIDENT. You go Girlfriend!!

    • Posted By: Mimi13 @ 06/05/2008 6:43:47 PM

      Hmmm. . . remember that story when people at the U.S. passport office were looking into Obama's records? His UNITED STATES passport records? Besides, he was born on U.S. soil (Hawaii) to an American citizen and that makes him a citizen. You realize that some in Congress throught that they needed to pass a special bill to have McCain declared a citizen since he was born in the Canal Zone. Silliness all around.

    Hillary should not give up - working for the middle class. There are many avenues in which she can use her talents to help others. However, it's over for her this election cycle. She has lost. It didn't have to end this way. They had to get the hook to get her off the stage because she simply wouldn't leave. Very humiliating.

  • Posted By: chindognyc @ 06/05/2008 4:02:09 PM

    Woman are so mad that they don't care if they loose one of there rights that they fought for so hard. Roe v Wade. Now you ladies are so bitter that you are ready to vote for McCain and you ladies know that he wants Roe v Wade to be overturned. Once that happens, then more will follow. Whats next, women can't vote? Will McCain say it was a flawed decision? If McCain becomes the nex President, I don't want to hear women say how dare McCain help to overturn Roe v Wade. It will just be your fault.

      yo misogynist. what do you know about women? or choice? mccain will have no power to overturn roe v wade. never gonna happen. he won't last two terms. you obama people whine and whine and whine and make excuses for why obama's gonna lose. it's absolutely hysterical. and of course it'll be Sen Clinton's fault by proxy. Sen Clinton is the only one getting my vote in november. whine away. try changing your name to gyne envy.

        • Posted By: Mimi13 @ 06/05/2008 7:26:18 PM

          Yes, McCain opposes abortion rights. Has voted for abortion restrictions permissible under Roe v. Wade, and now says he would seek to overturn that guarantee of abortion rights. He also said he would look for Supreme Court judges in the mold of Scalia -- an opponent of reproductive righs who maintains that Roe v. Wade was a flawed decision because there is no constitutional right to privacy.

      • Posted By: chindognyc @ 06/05/2008 5:06:31 PM

        You sound so crazy. The Supreme Court can overturn Roe v Wade. He said he will do it. This is what women are fighiting for. To vote for a man who will work to strip them of one of there rights. I say go and vote for him and when it happens, then I want to see there faces. Especially that crazy woman Harriet Christian.

      Why is it when anyone says anything about the fact that 93% of the blacks voted for Obama,....they are call racists? Yet Obama's wife can use the phrase "You Whities" and it's ok ? Isn't that a racist expression ?

      • Posted By: Pherdnut @ 06/05/2008 2:43:03 PM

        You're not a racist just full of !@#$. LInk to "you whities" please. The problem with claims about 93% of the black vote suggesting that black voters are bigots is that black voters favored Hillary by a huge margin at first.

        • Posted By: Hawaii08 @ 06/05/2008 2:59:10 PM

          Yeah, the Clintons were the favorite of blacks, until a "Black" person showed up... then they showed that they are more loyal to a color.... at least some of them did. Those of us who are not bound by the color of our skin, did not fall under that spell. It is sad. Truly, truly sad and a sad commentary that so many African-Americans will never move beyond their skin color, and become just a person versus a nationality. It is a sad truth that many of them would vote for anybody black who was running.... even Mike Tyson or Chris Rock, or the barber... that is just what's wrong. Many whites voted for Obama, even though they had a choice. Some of black neighbors and friends just got giddy because there was a black person in the race. They said "we gotta help this black man"... he could have stood mute this whole time or talked as stupid as chindognyc and they wouldn't have cared. All that mattered is that he is black. I live in a predominantly black neighborhood and we sit on the porch and discuss this, and they are insulted that I wasn't voting for him. They just keep saying " but, you're black, how can you not vote for the black candidate?" As if it should be a forgone conclusion..... it's just unbelieveable that they think that I should be governed by that fact, because my skin color is the same as his.... so tragic!

          • Posted By: churlburt @ 06/05/2008 7:08:17 PM

            An inaccurate statement if there ever was one. In October 2007, over 50% of the black Democratic electorate was for Hillary, and Time was running op-eds wondering if Barack was "black enough." African Americans did not desert her en masse until Bill ran his mouth off after a few stinging losses. I note this as a white person who was, quite frankly, astonished that the black voters didn't move to Obama once he declared his candidacy.

            Imagine, for a second, that Obama had said "well, Kerry, Bill Clinton, and every other white person since the beginning of time won that state too" in response to Hillary's New Hampshire win, and also presume that none of those people had run in over 20 years, but other African Americans had. Don't you think white people would have been a little justified in abandoning Obama?

            Facts. It helps to know them.

          • Posted By: chindognyc @ 06/05/2008 3:33:36 PM

            Listen to the bi-racial phony. You have been on the white side too long for that to come out of your mouth. How dare you. Blacks voted for who they thought was the right candidate. Just like the people in Ohio, PA, Ken, and WV who said that they voted for Hillary because she is White. You are a sad and phony fake bi-racial woman. Go back in the hole you came out of.

            • Posted By: Hawaii08 @ 06/05/2008 4:21:28 PM

              You are pitiful and whatever the white side is, is probably where you should visit. I like my hole better than your ghetto, you are the epitome of the ignorance that white people are afraid of. I know who and what I am... and everyone knows what you are, but we can't say those words on here. You'll be like so many of your generation and thinking.... a dead statistic! And the sad part is.... you think Obama is going to lift you out of the ghetto... maybe, but you need God to erase your simple, ghetto mentality. Pray, you ignorant (expletive deleted)! Look it up - phony intellectual! And then - DROP DEAD! You have NOTHING to offer the world, except maybe some dumbass kids with your dumbass baby mama's... that's why you're obsessed with Roe V. Wade, cause you can't feed the ones you got.... am I black enough for you now, or do I need to speak Ebonics so you can feel me? Huh, twit? I guess I sound phony black because I know how to speak and spell and I don't think it's cool to call myself "dog". Should I get a grill like ya boy, Flava Flav, so I can be real & down? Or act like "New York", because I think it's cute and a "black thing".... How dare you little hood rat, try to belittle anyone? Now, I am starting to act like you... just to prove a point, but yeah, it's not about color, I act, think & speak the way I do, because I have a daughter graduating from High School on Saturday, and I don't want her thinking it's ok to act like you do, because she is considered black and will automatically be looked down on. You're the reason why blacks are looked down on. I have to be an example to my daughter, so she will push herself beyond her skin color, and NEVER allow herself to feel like less than anyone, and ABSOLUTELY NEVER hook up with a jerk like you. By the way, my ex-husband is black, and he didn't vote for Obama either.... I guess he's a phony black. Yeah, cuz he would NEVER be caught with a grill in his mouth.... step off moron.... go talk to someone on your level.... like in HELL!

    In all the post-mortems I've seen so far, no one mentions that fact that Hillary lied about the Bosnia sniper fire incident. Am I the only one who feels that a candidate who will lie to get your vote will also lie once in office? I hear so many Clinton supporters say they trust her and share her values........how is that possible when she was shown to be liar (she "misspoke" just doesn't cut it with me). Are there really 18 million Americans who share the "value" of lying to achieve your ends? I am a 61-year-old, white, college-educated female.

      It was so dumb we're all trying to forget she said it for the good of the party. But it's also a good example of something the media blew way out of proportion for far too long while more serious issues should have been given attention. But yeah, it's pretty damn significant that she fibbed about as many things as she did before her campaign finally realized "it's the internet stupid" and finally stopped with the ridiculous attempts at enhancing her image with tall tales.

  • Posted By: Independent 08' @ 06/05/2008 1:48:39 PM

    McCain can't remember who we are fighting, let alone what he voted for in the past verses today. He blows where the wind might be popular and then blows back when people start to dislike what he is doing. His advisors have to whisper into his ear when he doesn???t know the answers to some of these tough questions. His foreign policy includes his 5 years as a POW ???way to win there-especially when they told his ass to go home after a year- and he said no-that???s when they tortured him- another win-win!!- for (McSame). You call that foreign policy? I don???t think McCain won the war he was in let alone his situation there- especially if he was captured-that would be embarrassing. Do you think he would do the same to our troops? You call that winning? Oh- and the market tour in Iran rather than the actual battlefield of where he was supposed to go to see if the surge was really working. He has too many senior moments, and his temper is unmanageable. If you have a girlfriend or a wife, or even a sister-he will take the supreme court back to the 50's and even these woman won't have rights-any person who laughs when a McCain supporter calls Hillary or any other female a "bi**h" and does not defend that comment-something is wrong. Tells you a little something about his private life and message. If you can't figure that out, then you have poor judgment. I wouldn't want McCain's finger on any trigger other then the one he will use to flush the toilet at night when he has to go.

Because it sounds petty- like the Republicans are trying to spin.

  • Posted By: mateasel @ 06/05/2008 5:45:49 PM

    The real reasons Obama won:
    1. Iowa. A small group of voters wanted the underdog and they chose Obama over Edwards. Without Iowa, Obama's only prominent first win would have been South Carolina.
    2. He's back. It's horrible that this statement usually has to be followed with 'I'm not a racist." But Obama's race played a pivotal role his amazing multi-state run. Without the strong support of blacks, that would not have been possible. No matter how you cut it, when a nominee wins 70, 80 or 90 per cent of a the black vote, it's a race thing.
    3. Luck. If Florida and Michigan had obeyed the rules or had the other states not shifted demographically in favor of Obama, the outcome would be different.

    • Posted By: Timj @ 06/05/2008 6:33:11 PM

      1. Dumb answer!!!!! Mostly a white state. Dumb Answer!!!!! How about VIrginia, North Carolina, and Wisconsin?

    "Obama has not been particularly accessible to the media. For a candidate who stressed transparency, he could use more. But at least he's not your basic BS artist. He doesn't lie or even do much stretching of the truth to suit his purposes"

    Congratulations! You are another one in the looooooooooong line of journalists (so -called) to have your nose so far up Obama's ass that you can no longer see your way to objectivity. Now I am a Republican, and there is no way on earth I would vote for Obama (based on the fact that he has no experience and no policies to speak of, just a bunch of snake-oil salesman charm and bluster) but for Heaven's sake, YOU are a reporter of the news, and here you have written a magnificent peice of blather about your love affair with Obama. You have the audacity (pun intended) to say he doesnt lie???? THATS a lie.......like ANYONE actually believes he attended a church for 20 years yet by some miracle was unaware of what his "pastor" (again, so-called) was really saying???? He doesnt lie??? Like anyone actually believes that he was unaware of how dirty Rezko was. And on top of all that he is friends and colleagues with William Ayers, as despicable a human being that has ever walked the shores of this great land.

    You have lost any and all credibality as a "reporter" of the news. You should be ashamed for writing that garbage. Obamas is selling change that will destroy this country if he gets elected, and thats not a lie. Print that!

    Another reason she lost is that if the candidate is not an incumbent, the best guide to what they will do is their speeches ??? the content and the style. His were compared to Abraham Lincoln???s.

    What Clinton established, though, is the idea that a woman can run for President and that the country is overall not sexist.

    As the article says, though, she started to undo this by kvetching about how sexism had hurt her, that is, maybe we weren't so good, after all. I never even heard those two or three anecdotes.

    And now she is refusing to give up. She is not planning to concede, as she should. Only to suspend her campaign. She has revealed that her personal ambition is above the Democratic Party and anything else.

    Her accomplishment stands. There is no barrier for a woman to be president. She has, however, revealed that she is not that woman.

    On the lighter side, it turns out that the phone number for her NY office is (212) OUT, MAMA
    (no kidding!) That should be the message but her voice mail box is full.

    What Clinton established is the idea that a woman can run for president and that the country is overall not sexist. As the article says, she started to undo this by kvetching about how sexism had hurt her -- exactly based on a few random exceptions, that is, maybe we weren't so good, after all. And now she is refusing to give up. She is not going to concede, only suspend her candidacy. She has revealed that her personal ambition is above the Democratic Party and anything else.

    A major reason she lost is that, if the candidate is not an incumbent, the guide to their future performance is their speeches -- their content and their style. His were compare by more than one person to Abraham Lincoln's.

    Her accomplishment stands. There is no barrier for a woman to be president. She has, however, revealed that she is not that woman.
