Hillary is just the latest reminder of Bill. That has to set the women's movement back. Bill's current girlfriend of over 2 years lives in Ottawa, Canada. Of course, the press chooses to release very little on that relationship. Once Hillary wins or loses this presidential run, the Clinton marriage should finally be over. That split may actually help the women's movement.

Mary Alice9:18AMMay 14th 2008

Hillary has used whining, complaining, character assasination, belittling and temper tantrums as political ploys to gain attention. Her demonstrated expectation of special consideration w/o returning the favor has significantly diminished her stature in the eyes of many. She has further shown little appreciation for the value of both team play and financial responsibility. If her use of campaign funds indicates her financial wizardry, our country would be deeper in debt with her as president than it currently is because of the economic policies of George Bush. She claims to have come from working class roots. Believe me, Park Ridge, Illinois, is not a blue collar community! In my years of teaching there the closest my families came to working class was in the ownership of those companies. e.g. the owners of a company that was building the deep tunnel project, and another who as construction supt. was responsible fot the Hancock building. Hillary lived on the "better" side of the tracks! I can only hope that she has not blemished or destroyed the work that so many of us women have invested in levelling the playing field for all women.

no obama9:40AMMay 14th 2008

Obama will never win WVA, OH, PA, TX, KY, IN as the news said this is a block of people who have a lot in common. These people are very down to earth proud people, who work hard and are very religious. I was born in PA and lived there until I got married. I noticed that Obama tried to dress down to fit in with the people in PA and then he did the same thing in IN. It didn't work because he looks down on these people who are the hard working class of people. Obama can't take any of these states in November. He thinks these people are low class and hicks. He is an elitist, and doesn't have anything in common with them. The only reason he didn't campaign in WV was because he created a disaster in PA and the people saw through him. He received the same reception in WVA. You outspend Hillary 2 to 1 again, this time campaigning in WVA, you had plenty of TV ads that didn’t help, face it Obama you just don’t have it any more. People now know who you are and what you stand for, you can’t win in Nov. You are not fooling anyone; you didn't physically campaign in WVA because the people did not accept you. You can wear all the zipped up jackets and work boots you want, you can drink beer and eat hot dogs, bowl, play pool and feed sheep, and it still doesn't make you one of them. I will never forgive or forget what you said about the people in PA while attending an elitist fund raiser in CA and neither will the people in PA. FL & MI will never forgive you for not helping get their votes counted. You’re afraid if you do Hillary will beat you, because you know she is the strongest candidate. You have fought every suggestion that was made to get their votes counted. You sent you attorney to squash any agreements. You are not a man you are a wimp, not presidential material.
Bob Casey was talking on CNN and said that the Democratic Party will pull together in Nov and vote for Obama. Boy he must dream a lot at night. No one gets it, all I hear on the news is that the Democratic Party is going to pull together and vote for Obama, not this Democrat. I vowed from day one that I would vote Republican if Obama won the Democratic Primaries. My husband says that Hillary has more balls that any man politician he has every seen. She can run this country better than any of them. I agree with him. I will vote for McCain if Hillary doesn’t get the nod. HEAR THIS AND UNDERSTAND OBAMA AND THE DNC, I WON’T VOTE OBAMA AND I WON’T SUPPORT HIM IN NOVEMBER. I DON’T TRUST HIM, HIS JUDGEMEMT, HIS FRIENDS, OR HIS RELIGION WHATEVER THAT IS. HE IS A LIAR, DRUG USER AND IMMATURE, COCKY, ARROGANT ELITIST.

As a British Subject with a Green Card and anticipating U.S.Citizenship in the not too distant future I feel that Hilary Clinton would be the better choice for President.

mark9:44AMMay 14th 2008

I would never vote for Osama Obama. I will give my vote to John first.

april9:46AMMay 14th 2008

Hillary has shown that a woman can be smart, decisive, tough and in touch with the American voters. Unlike Nancy Pelosi who has been a nightmare for women, with her tough talk until she won, and then her pussycat purring over the Republicans and her wait til your daddy gets home approach to her position.Her Symbolic, do nothing, reach across party lines, lack of effectiveness, has made me view her as an air headed bimbo.Go Hillary-- to quote SNL Bitch is the new black.

brooks9:46AMMay 14th 2008

is there any relief to this democratic nonsense! McCain will win

Black Woman Against Obama9:47AMMay 14th 2008

What a sexist question! Coming from a woman no doubt. Its questions like this and how Hillary Clinton has been treated as a Presidential candidate that will set woman back. Woman and getting no respect. What White America is telling the world is that they would rather have a vague, unqualified, shady African-American man, than vote for a qualified female candidate. The statistics don't bode well for Barack Obama, especially since all his supporters can say that if Hillary Clinton wasn't still in the race he would have done better in WV and the other swing states. If he didn't have any competition he would probably get more than 30% of the vote in West Virginia but not that much more.....America doesn't want him period and it has little to do with race...it has to do with that fact that people don't like him as a person.....

ALL ABOARD THE OBAMA EXPRESS TRAIN NEXT STOP THE WHITE HOUSE9:59AMMay 14th 2008

Isabella10:04AMMay 14th 2008

Barbara, did you forget to engage your brain before asking this question? It makes me shudder to think that you and the rest of the biased Media actually get paid from someone to insult the American people on a daily basis. What will you pee brained idiots do for a life after this election is over?

Wanda10:08AMMay 14th 2008

I respect and admire Hillary Clinton, and what's more, my daughter respects and admires her as well. A few months ago my university freshman daughter asked my opinion about why so many young people disliked Hillary but liked Obama. I refused to comment; instead, I told her to go find out the answers for herself. After asking her friends and others at school and getting vacuous, inane responses, she began to research. She watched the debates, she read the articles, and she listened to the speeches. Her conclusion? Hillary is intelligent, determined, caring, and the most capable of those running for office. Her conclusion was NOT influenced by this mom. In fact, my daughter began her own "blog" as she set out to enlighten her friends about the reality of this election. This mom is very proud, and no, Hillary has not "set women back."

Georgette10:09AMMay 14th 2008

Hillary has shown she is a fighter! She has proven she is willing to fight for our Country and it's people. The facts are in front of us. We would be fools not to see it.
No other candiate has shown the strength she has!

Donald Smith10:09AMMay 14th 2008

There have been many women whom I would consider far more qualified to run for, and win, the Presidency, than Ms. Clinton, M. Jodi Rell, Governor of CT, for example. Now that Hillary has inspired our Country to seriously consider a woman as President, it opens the door wide for other highly qualified women to aspire to the Presidency. A setback? I think not!

Deanne10:23AMMay 14th 2008

ANOTHER BOGUS, BIASED, NEGATIVE QUESTION POSTED ON AOL. WE GET IT. YOU ARE FOR OBAMA. WE GET IT. YOU ARE SO WRONG.

Ron10:33AMMay 14th 2008

Senator Clinton has done more to strengthen the argument that a woman can be a qualified leader in today's America. As a male, I in no way feel threatened by a powerful woman vying for the White House. I believe that the next woman to run for our nation's highest office will have an easier time being judged on her intelligence, strength and policies than her sex thanks to Senator Clinton. And please note, I say Senator Clinton out of respect for her position. I find it interesting that any time a question is asked about Senator Obama that respect is given. Yet, maybe we call her Hillary because we do feel more personal towards her. However, I do refuse to attack the questioner for the question. I don't believe that she should support Senator Clinton just because she is a woman anymore than I think whites should support Senator Clinton because she is white or people of color should support Senator Obama because he is black. Hopefully, we all make our decision based on issues, experience and strength.

AmericanWoman10:33AMMay 14th 2008

Of course Hillary is not setting woman back. I admire Hillary for her determination. I am telling my 2 daughters and my grandaughter, "See, a woman can do anything". However, when Michelle Obama made the statement, "If Hillary can't take care of her own house, how will she take care of the White House", refering to the fact that Hillary's husband cheated on her, that set woman back.....by miles. Shame on Michelle Obama for infering that if a man cheats, it's the woman's fault. How would a woman like this represent American women? I want a woman in the White House, whether it be President or First Lady, that knows how to handle social issues respectfully. It was unfortunate that Hillary had to go through that, but because of it we saw another side of Hillary. We saw her hold her head high, and show that she is a forgiving person. She is truly an inspiration to all woman around the world, not just in the US.

Scholar10:37AMMay 14th 2008

Hillary represents disgusted and arrogant women who are itching for the chance beat men over the head for all their years of trouble caused by men. Hillary's self-serving interest shows disrespect and disloyalty to the party. Her argument that she has won the big states as though the smaller states are irrelevant is rediculous simply because this is the United States, and when the count is made on the basis of "united" she is behind. That fact does not seem to resinate with Hillary and her supporters, makes you wonder just how ignorant can that group be. The Clintonites are being misled by the media because it does not want this fight to end "its good press." Lately the media has raised all sorts of silly question that urge Democrats to continue inhouse fighting, essentially creating news rather than reporting it.

stone thrower10:38AMMay 14th 2008

It is no secret that women all over the world still today take a back seat to men! Even in the USA women still do not make the same per hour as a man does. Look at Obama, he can play the race card, but what about the Gender card from Hillary. She never used the fact that she was a woman to get 'pitty' votes. Yes we have come a long way but all over the world women still have a long way to go. i am thankful that i do live in a country where women have freedom, and i feel for my fellow women in other countries that have NO rights. God bless the USA and her fellow men (and Women)

Peni10:45AMMay 14th 2008

Whew, thomasecw, I have been hearing something about this relationship. Do you think that's why Bill is working hard to get Hillary nominated? To put her dreams ahead since he hurt her so bad with the sex scandals? Maybe so.

Randy10:45AMMay 14th 2008

She has held up very well to the male dominated media asaults. Go Hillary all the way to the convention. Don't believe those patronizing men.
Yes, YOu Will Hillary 2008
