Attention Must Be Paid

The press still assumes that the majority of Clinton supporters are Democrats. We're not. We're independents who have no intention of voting for Senator Obama. Yes, McCain may be against many women's issues, however, one must look at what is best for the country overall and not just a segment of the population. I want someone who is ready on Day 1, and that isn't the senator from Illinois....

When I said I may write Hillary in instead of voteing for Obama in a political blob I was called a Kunt! This is no way of getting votes for Obama. The Tshirt that read Bros before Hos was the main reason for my decision. We women got the vote before the blacks and I think we deserved a Woman President before a inexperienced Black Man.

Just curious if the spin of the Clinton bloggers is true or if the spin is actually being posted by Limbaugh's people.

The question is, are CLintons supporters merely in love with a former First Lady, or are they really feminists?
If they are feminists then they would support Claire McCaskill, since Sen McCaskill has actual experience, not First Lady time. While Clinton was first lady, McCaskill was Governor of Mizzou, State Auditor with a great record, multi-term legislator, and chief prosector for Kansas City. Barbara Boxer was in the House of Representatives whiile CLinton was First Lady, and Boxer had an important career in California poiitics before that and has been US Senator while Clinton was. The difference between Boxer or McCaskill is that they won several elected offices, like House and Governor, while Clinton's only prior accomplishment was being married to a president. It isnt really a personal accomplishment, but women fall in love with First Ladies.

What does John McCain have to do to secure the votes of white women? It would seem that voters, Anna Quindlen in particular, expect much more from Barack Obama than his Republican counterpart. After all, McCain has laughed off comments about Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama that were respectively sexist and racist--possibly isolating women and African Americans. What exactly makes McCain more desirable to those groups?

I DO NOT want to go back and undue all that Hillary has done thats for sure. McCAIN - Backwards and completely out of touch with the issues. I WILL vote for OBAMA and fight to make my wonderful country better. I KNOW he's a good man. When people are afraid and desperate, they get mean. Not listening to that.

All the boomer feminists who are mostly wanted women to vote for Sen. Clinton simply because she was a woman and claimed 35 years of experience for her including Bill Clinton's years of Governor and President among them. Now suddenly, Anna Quindlen is claiming Michelle Obama and her generation have all these opportunities because of a 'new wave of feminism'. When? Sorry to bring race in, but even in the days of Obama's grandmother being female and available opportunities meant what the color of your skin was. Women of a darker color simply did not have the choice of not working because it was their economic situation and not their gender that dictated whether they worked or not. And mostly in the lower economic sectors. Add segregation and Michelle Obama's grandmother's life exprience is not the same as Barack Obama's white grandmother.
Even during the early parts of Barack and Michelle Obama's mother's lives, their skin color must have dictated the opportunities available to them. Barack's mother was extraordinarily open minded, whch if we are honest will acknowledge that it was the exception and not the rule then. Our country has become more equal now, but it must be acknowledged that for Michelle Obama to be a Ivy League student was harder than someone who was a woman and in her exact same economic situation, but white. Even now the percentage of minority women to white women in Ivy League colleges is not the same. And many are due to economic reasons.
So, Ms. Quindlen, unless the anger of women of your generation sorry to say has mostly been among white women who have been threatening to write Sen. Clinton's name in the ballot like small petulant children, have no sympathy among the majority of other democrats. Sen. Obama should be inclusive of all groups irrespective of race, gender or economic situation if he is to be President of America. He does not owe women of your generation and acknowledgement of 'anger or frustration' just because his opponenet was a woman of your age neither is he a stand in for the 'younger men, women in the assistant's seat have watched promoted over them'. . It is unfair. Will you apologize for slavery and segregation because you are a white woman ? And I am not a black woman, but an Asian immigant woman.

Mr. McCain???s biggest challenges as he faces a general election contest with Senator Barack Obama : a continued wariness toward him among evangelicals and other Christian conservatives.Because the Republican brand name is less popular and the conservative base is restive, McCain has special needs to reach out to independent and moderate voters, but, completely neglect by evangelical and conservative base.because of John McCain Lies,Prejeduice,Hypocrites,..IF we to compare Obama words and his character as Man of truth evangelical ,we all have see thru his actions during nation wide Campaign, While John MCcain adopted to and ACTS as being Christian conservatives are NOT his truth evangelical values that teachs by Jesuis Christ.

Right everyone to his Opinion,We have been talking about Church and pastor all months,Are we going to select a Leader base on Who's their pastor or Doesn't matters how does they leads their Real Lives?
Jesus Christ said,Christian dont Lies they only speaks the truth ,they dont be Prejudice but Justice,will not be hypocrites, a man of his words...Sadly they still prefer John MCCain of live even his the most opposite side of what Jesus had preached to christians if we to compare to Obama words yet many white evalangical church goes againt Obama for this John Mcain live style .

if you want to be equal - do not scream
If you want to have a vote in Politics - think and make Your choise NOT based on Gender, but on Issues.

Women are screaming tooo much, like Kids.
Clintonists women did NOT demonstrate Adult approach.
Whims are NOT acceptable in Politics.

Linda, Typical white, pretty old , 55, woman.

Women will vote for the candidate who supports womens issues if that candidate happens to be black. If he is, many will not choose a President at all. They will still vote and they will support womens' issues. They just won't vote for the black guy for the big job. Hillary masked alot of this prejudice because she was a woman. It was easy to say you were not against the black man because you were for a woman. Now the choice is between the stone age values of the white Mr. McCain, or the new age values of the black Mr. Obama. The women will not like only a black or white choice on these terms so they will refrain. Enough women will choose to not make a choice , at least among democratic type voters. They will insure that a poor choice is made in favor of McCain. Woe to Rowe vs. Wade thereafter!

That Rush Chaos plan was started by Nobama as Democrat for a day in Nevada. The republicans took it over and voted for NOBAMA, not Hillary.

They felt Hillary was the strongest candidate so they chose the WEAKER one. That would be NObama. This meant nothing to NObama as he just wanted to knock Hillary out and then they stole it fromher.

Look at the polls, if Hillary runs without the empty suit, she wins a landslide. Against McCain, she wins and with Nobama we are back in Republican country for 4 more years.
We have to convince Hillary to run as an independent so we can have part of what we need for the country.

Well, Sweetie, you must be someones footstool, but MILLIONS of us are not.
We are going to McCain. You saw that the nobama did not get that bump of new voters they were expecting when they stole the election from Hillary. We owe the Democrats nothing. This is not OUR party, this is a criminal club now. Why don't you do some real reporting and tell us how NOama voted for the patriot act, why the democrats voted with the republicans for more funding for the war when the war could have stopped MONTHS ago due to lack of funds. What about Pelosi, he could have stopped as Speaker of teh House, BUT NO. What about the N'cobra site that had BO's for Pres site as the link for more information...yeah, we don't want too many women seeing that as WE may change this country and vote for the better person. One who has not lied as Nobama lies, The best is Hillary, next is McCain.
So nobama filled some sandbags, McCain could not do to his disability from being a POW.
So Nobama spoke in church about men who do not support their children, BUT FIRST he has to say they have ben treated badly but that is no excuse. Such a HYPOCRITE!
We can see the emperor with no clothes is NAKED, can't you?
WAKE UP, Missy!

Get with the program.
As my mama always said, if you run with thieves, you are thief.

The only way he can really prove it to me is if he chooses Hillary as his running mate - especially in light of the fact that he didn't win enough elected delegates to cinch this and the superdelegates are the ones choosing him over the woman who more people voted for than any primary candidate in the history of this country, in spite of being outspent more than 2 to 1. Otherwise I won't believe one word of his unity schpiel.

Delegates are needed to win presidential primaries. Barack Obama earned the most delegates because the people of these United States voted for him--thus, ensuring his nomination.

To be fair, the nomination was not handed to Obama nor was it snatched from Hillary Clinton. Both candidates ran formidable races, but there could be only one.
