It's unfortunate that the country didn't have the chance to get familiar with ALL the candidates before the primaries. If the news media had done their job of facilitating discovery rather than canonization or vilification depending on which candidate they were talking about, it's very likely we wouldn't be in the situation we're in right now. I suspect there are quite a few people who voted in January and February who would vote differently if the election were held today. Shame on the news media, and good luck to the super-delegates who now have a mess on their hands.
Clinton is a Republican - rich get richer9:16AMMay 5th 2008
Let's not return to the scandal ridden days of the Clintons.
Enron, Worldcom, pardons for sale, violating the civil rights of working class women, backdating of stock options all happened while the Clintons SLEPT in the White House.
The AFL-CIO website shows that CEO compensation - when compared to their average employee - was the HIGHEST under the Clintons.
Face it - Hillary is a republican, just without the talk about God. After 20 years of the Bush-Clinton dynasty, American workers are losing homes, jobs, benefits, and pensions.
It was the Clintons that made social security taxable while making $500,000 in capital gains non-taxable.
America needs new direction. America needs UNITY. American workers need a friend in the White House.
AMERICA NEEDS BARACK OBAMA!!!!

If your middle name is Hussein and you want to be president of the USA,under no circumstance should you be lured into uttering words that favor Iran because right or wrong,its not smart.

Clinton is a Republican: you might want to check your facts - virtually all the things you mentioned happened during the Bush administration and the rest are pretty bogus to start with. Your bias is showing.

As the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review stated, "Political courage is essential in a president. Clinton has demonstrated it. Obama has not."
That's the bottom line.

Talked with 5 golfing buddies this morning, one is voting for for obama, two of us for Clinton, one for McCain and two crossing party lines to vote for Clinton.
Indiana for Hillary Clinton.

Obama is Wright and Wrong for America!!
We need a president who makes suggestions and will fight to the end for the USA! Hillary Clinton has shown she is that person!!
HRC the next President of the USA!

Senator Clinton is not only the more experienced of the two candidates but also the more electable. More people have voted for Senator Clinton than Senator Obama. In addition, Senator Clinton has won the majority of states where there was an actual primary including the four largest states, California, Texas, New York, and Florida and eight of the top ten states which include New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan. Senator Clinton has also won the swing states which are necessary to win the primary election and current polls show her significantly ahead of Senator McCain in the general election. Senator Clinton consistently wins white women, the largest voting block in the country, by a significant margin and during the general election, and I suspect an undetermined number of Republican and Independent Women voters will cross over to elect the first female president. Add to this base of women her other constituencies of citizens over 50, Hispanics, Union members, White men, Catholics, Jewish voters, Asians, and working class whites and I am sure Senator Clinton will defeat Senator McCain in November and a Democrat will reclaim the White House.
Hillary’s candidacy is important to me as a woman and the most significant political event of my lifetime. A woman in the White House would mean change, real change, and be an inspiration to our daughters and granddaughters.

Millions of white and black voters had Obama looking like a rock star along with the media. Obama only has himself to blame for the problems concerning Reverend Wright. He tried to hide him away at his party to announce his candidacy and the media did want to look racially motivated by asking him hard questions they would have asked of anyone else. Needless to say, if a candidate is a member of any sort of fringe church or social club, they cannot honestly say the can represent all Americans. He should have used good judgment and left the church long ago. He pledges allegiance to Africa, not America, by the standards of his church alliance and he wishes the national anthem was, in his words, "the Coca Cola song "I'd like to teach the world to sing". He says that perhaps then he would put his hand over his heart. I have news for Obama....our national anthem is "THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER" and it has been good enough for presidents and soldiers and airmen and sailors throughout our history....so put your hand over your heart, stand up tall and be proud of your country or you will never have my vote.
Jeremiah1:14PMMay 5th 2008
Jeremiah was a bull frog
was a good friend of Obama's
Obama never understood a single thing he said
but he helped him drink his wine
and he always had mighty fine wind
Obama is addicted to nicotine.
Malcom1:22PMMay 5th 2008
I just want to say to the people who go to the polls and vote for Obama you are taking a big chance of letting anti-Americanism into the White House, which will destroy this country.
Joe T1:36PMMay 5th 2008
Melanie Morgan, at www.wnd.com, reports that OBAMA has TIES with another 'radical anti-American', JODIE EVANS, who is an advocate for Islamic Militants--She will soon become the "new" Jeremiah Wright. (The GOP is ready to break this story). Obama is damaged goods.
Zelmar Hall1:43PMMay 5th 2008
Hillary, supported her husband in some most of the things he did. It is said that the news media is not talking about the trial that is going on in California with Paul vs Clinton's reference the fundraising. This case has shown how Hillary and Bill has lied to have monetary gains. Then they threw Paul under the bus when the deal was found out. Yet the news media wanted to focus on a man and his sermons.
Zelmar Hall1:45PMMay 5th 2008
If anyone has any doubts whether Hillary is honest read this article or google Paul vs Hillary. No one is talking about this. Hillary gets a free pass with the press.

How could any American that truly loves this country vote for someone to be our President that will not even show respect for the national anthem or Old Glory by refusing to place his hand over his heart. It is more than obvious he does not pledge his allegiance to the United States of America. God help us if he were to get into the Whitehouse. Who knows what kind of anti-American actions he will promote.
I am so tired of all of the talk that if you don't like Obama it is because he is black and you must be racist, when the same could be said if you don't like Hillary, she is just as much if not more a minority as Obama. First because she is white and second because she is a woman. Just ask any white person in Florida and they will tell you we are definitely the minority here.
4CAROLINA1:56PMMay 5th 2008
OBAMA SPENT 20 YEARS WITH WRIGHT AND LIED ABOUT IT. HE HAS TIES TO ANTI-AMERICANS AND TERRORISTS AND LIED ABOUT IT --- DON’T FORGET 9/11, REZKO, AYERS, FARRAKHAN, HAMAS AND OTHERS!
OBAMA HAS RUN HIS ENTIRE CAMPAIGN ON LIES. FINALLY THE MEDIA IS REPORTING THE TRUTH. IS IT TOO LATE? WHAT ELSE IS HE STILL HIDING?
REMEMBER — PELOSI WANTS TO BE THE FIRST FEMALE PRESIDENT! SHE AND OBAMA, ALONG WITH HIS ANTI-AMERICAN FRIENDS, WILL DESTROY OUR COUNTRY.
THE DNC HAS WORKED OUT A “DEAL” FOR OBAMA TO GIVE PART OF HIS CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY! WHAT ARE THEY OFFERING OBAMA IN RETURN? MAYBE THE SUPER-DELEGATES?
HE SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO “BUY” OUR COUNTRY.
WE HAVE 50 STATES --- COUNT FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN!
VOTE HILLARY!
Very Concerned american2:02PMMay 5th 2008
The DNC party can not allow super delegates vote's to count for more than the American people's choice. I would become an Independent or never vote again.
Politics has fallen to an all time low. This country is not the leader in anything anymore but the first to go to war.
America is a land that was invaded by European's and stolen from the Indians. Let's face it equality is becoming the main issue in this democratic race for the presidential nominee. People proclaim racial equality, but are freightened to allow the process to begin to take place.
I am tired of the politics and want a decision made after the vote Tuesday May 6th, based on what registered democrats have voted for. I believe we will set the country back beyond repair by allowing "super delegate votes " to call the shots for registered American voters.
Politicians can be bought and that is not what the country needs at this time. We need CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN.
YES WE CAN!!!
Simon Vouet2:06PMMay 5th 2008
It should be noted that Zogby is an Obama supporter.
Obama seems to be getting alot of support from the college students. Back in the 1930's college students in another country supported and pushed into power a guy that should never have been put into power. That country was Germany and that guy was Adolph Hitler.

OPEN LETTER TO INDIANA AND NORTH CAROLINA VOTERS:
This Texan wants to applaud the efforts of Hillary supporters in North Carolina and Indiana. As one of the 1,459,814 Texans who voted for Hillary in March, I appreciate your hard work. (That is, by the way, 100,000+ more votes than Sen. Obama received in the head-to-head, one-vote-per-person Texas primary.)
I believe Indiana and North Carolina voters find themselves in a similar position to Texas voters in March. Both primaries, which usually are too late to impact the nomination, come at key moments in the primary season.
I want to encourage you all (or "y'all" as we say in Texas) not only to vote, but also to encourage others to vote. Don't forget the senior adults who may need transportation or other assistance in voting. My 92-year-old mother, who was born before women even had the right to vote, was determined to cast her vote for Hillary....not only because she was a woman, but also because she believed Hillary was the strongest candidate.
Go Indiana! Go North Carolina! Let's bring it home for Hillary!
A Texan for Hillary

I wouldn't be surprised if North Carolina becomes the first upset of the 2008 presidential campaign tomorrow. Zogby had Obama up by 9 pts this morning, what that really means is Hillary is very close in the state, Zogby hasn't been right in the last 7 states. Least we forget they had Obama up by 11 pts in New Hampshire the very day before the primary there also.
People are really getting tired of Obama, and they're getting tired of him in rapid fashion. I think the comment he made first about not denouncing his pastor, and then throwing his white Grandmother under the bus, and then the second comment he made that he really hated the comments Wright made all along, has left a very sour taste in people's mouth's. I mean it doesn't take a genius to see it's not the comments Obama had a problem with, afterall, he heard comments like that for 20 yrs, it's the fact that Obama wouldn't keep the comments quiet until after the election in November, which is what really ticked him off.
I also think American's by a majority don't like the idea of the country being soft on people like the Iran dictator, they've seen what being soft on people like that does before, it ends up with American's being taken hostage. There is only one way to deal with evil, and that's to let them know if they cross you, they will get it back 100 times over, that's the only thing people like that understand.
