Opinions are welcome but be civil. Bush Bashing and anonymous posts are not tolerated.
It's laughable. Hillary's going to win by almost 40 points. Much the same will happen next week in Kentucky.
And yet the Democrats are going to stick with Obama and lose this election. If half of Hillary's voters go with McCain, Obama will lose WV in November by something close to the same margin.
He'll lose in a lot of other states too. Keep an eye on this electoral vote map site through the campaign.
If the election were held today, John McCain would beat Obama handily, but struggles versus Clinton (she would win OH, PA, and FL).
While I do believe McCain will beat Clinton (she's made too many mistakes already) he will stomp Obama.
So please, Dems. Ignore West Virginia and Kentucky. Ignore Clinton. Run Obama.
...and Clinton wins by more than 40 points. It looks like the MSM is starting to ask questions about if Obama can win, but it's too late. Obama will have his delegates by Oregon, the disenfranchisement of Florida and Michigan will continue and McCain will only grow stronger as the pressure mounts on Obama.
The GE will be brutal. Rezko, Wright, Weathermen, Farrakhan, and even Michelle Obama will all drag him down into the abyss.
The country will not give the keys to the Dems ever again.
All Clinton did was bring out the "Racist" in the voters. That's all she did! America was built on racism. The simple fact is, racism is still the SICKEST most POWERFUL force in America today.
More Clinton power-plays. They never stop angling! Now she wants to force Obama to select her as his VP! It's so sick.
Obama needs to pick someone he's comfortable with and not someone who attempts to extort him into a partnership he doesn't really want.
If Obama picks someone else as his VP, Mrs. Clinton and her loyal fans have these words to thank for the decision:
Hillary: "Both John McCain and I have passed the Chief Executive threshold and Barack Obama's got a speech."
COSMICALLY DUMB! COSMICALLY DUMB!
Wake up, Mrs. Clinton. Obama has much more than "a speech"! He's got a GREAT SPEECH and, more importantly, the Democratic nomination!
Mr. Obama, please select a VP that you are comfortable with and don't let the Clinton power-plays influence you one single bit!
I think 28 years of Clintons & Bushes in the White House is quite enough, thank you very much.
If I am a racist, which you seem to think we all are, then I will have to place the blame for that squarely on the liberal policies of this country.
Forced bussing of blacks and whites; special rights to students of color (sans white); drug dealers, crack whores, prostitutes, and lazy people on multigenerational welfare; selective admissions to colleges, law schools, and advanced universities programs that discriminate because of skin color; government jobs given on skin color, race, and sex, rather on who is the most qualified ... the list of racist atrocities our government has perpetrated in the name of ''''equality" is endless.
I believe in equal rights, not special rights. Every child in this country is required, by law, to attend school for 12 years. Some states, like California, even have tuition-free community colleges. I do not believe that blacks should get special rights over any one; the percentage of blacks in this country is less than 13%. The Hispanic population ... the legal populace ... are at 24% and do not ask for special rights; they are hard working, pay their taxes, teach their children respect and spiritual growth.
No, I don't feel this country is mostly racists. I feel that most of the country are honest, hard working folks who, like me, are sick and tired of the politically correct mentality that blacks, gays, lesbians, transgendered, transexual, or anyone else who cries for special rights gets them. We are a nation of mixed races, sexes, religions, and nationalities who have, by the very nature of being an American, embraced the theory of the Melting Pot, and not the Land of Segregation.
So, who, really, is the racist here?
This is a great article; no pandering but truth supported by facts.
There are over generalizations by media, fans, and democratic leaders which have been misleading. Let's fact the fact and not let your emotion rush into a decision.
Calling anyone not supporting BO as racists is an act of racism in the reversed direction. Why would Hillary be called to quit her campaign with so much support; millions of voters firmly behind her. Don't you think voters will have a memory that they are called a racist when they vote against the party.
The party is at fault and has been caught. Now we have black politicians on TV making outrageous accusations based on only what they have heard from their ethnic group; that spells racism. Being a minority doesn't offer you the immunity of racism.
BO & company 's venom & bitter pills are hard to take. His supporters now become both his assets and liabilities. If you keep on calling us racists, we shall turn from issues to being personal. It is that simple.
I hope it's true that McCain can stomp Obama. He certainly ought to be able to, but there's a long way until the elections. No telling what can happen.
BO 's poetic promises of change is supported by hot air.
Todd Spivak of the Houston Press has documented how Obama accomplished next to nothing in his first six years in the Illinois legislature.
Then Emil Jones Jr. an African American with thirty years in the legislature made Obama a sponsor of 26 bills that became law. This is how BO portrays himself as a highly successful legislator.
This is just like giving him the ball at 1 yard line and carries him on his back.
Has Obama repaid Jones? Yes. He has provided tens of millions in earmarks for Jones' district. As to such actions, Jones famously said: "Some call it pork; I call it steak."
Michelle Obama's salary at University of Chicago Hospitals when her husband won the US Senate seat was $121,000. Within weeks of his swearing in, her salary went to over $320,000. The following year Obama did an earmark request for $1 million for her employer.
BO has used bombastic high-flown language to fool millions of people by poetic promises of change. In reality, he has taken considerable money and support from all sorts of corporate and other special interests. Remember his Bittergate talking to billionaires in San Francisco!
BO's credential passed in the net is fabricated and not true; FACTCHECK says don't believe it.
BO ducks and quits on debates, people and the truth. BO does not have the stamina and tenacity to be a true, and solid reformer. BO does not have what it takes to win a nomination and he is counting on the party to send Joe Andrew and John Edwards to stump for him. Hillary has won the support of the working class, the poor, and John Edwards back stab Hillary to endorse BO. He is this sorts which make up the Democratic party. It's time that we have a candidate to clean up the party. Hillary is tough enough to clean up the party.
The party and BO screw voters, tampering fairness, bending party rules, misleading voters, breaches democracy.
We are sore because BO is a candidate at fault and he is a phony we can't accept. Ain't nobody can stick it down our throat.
(Remember how Pelosi was warned she was out of line in creating new rules)
Go Hillary all the way to convention
Like her brother George.... sister Hillary is ..
Not smart enough to know when admit what every other thinking person can see.
