Really, you're ready for a Bush 3rd term, and give up on all the issues you supposedly supported when you were for Clinton? So, you're not for better health care, ending the war in Iraq, tax breaks for the middle class, and a woman's right to choose? Good going Patty. It shows that Clinton didn't really stand for much if her most loyal supporters can give up on issues that affect people's lives so easily. Sounds like maybe the ONLY reason you supported Clinton was because of gender. Sad Patty. Very sad.</description></item><item><title>Obama takes superdelegate lead</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/05/12/1010226.aspx#1010403</link><pubDate>Mon, 12 May 2008 16:40:30 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1010403</guid><dc:creator>Chris, Warwick, RI</dc:creator><description>One more step closer to a McCain Presidency!</description></item><item><title>Obama takes superdelegate lead</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/05/12/1010226.aspx#1010404</link><pubDate>Mon, 12 May 2008 16:40:35 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1010404</guid><dc:creator>Eric, Salinas, CA</dc:creator><description>Anyone who supports a third Bush term does not support our brave overworked troops! &amp;nbsp;Anyone who votes for &amp;quot;Warmonger&amp;quot; McCain is supporting enslaving our troops with the stop-loss policy where our brave troopers have been abused with so many multiple combat tours. &amp;nbsp;He doesn't even support better education benefits for veterans because he wants to keep abusing them with more and more combat tours.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Time to send all his supporters over to Iraq, pay them crappy wages and ensure their families are split apart for long periods of time over and over again.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Go Obama 08/12!</description></item><item><title>Obama takes superdelegate lead</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/05/12/1010226.aspx#1010408</link><pubDate>Mon, 12 May 2008 16:40:46 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1010408</guid><dc:creator>Travis Williams</dc:creator><description>Why do people hate Hillary so much?

With 74 percent of delegates in, Obama is 92% of the way to 2,025, while Clinton is only 84% there. Not figuring in Michigan and Florida, of course, or the popular vote from Puerto Rico, where no one can vote for President in the November election. &amp;nbsp;But not even the jokers and wild cards can help. It's time for Senator Clinton to exit with the dignity of bringing her most loyal supporters into the fall campaign with Senator Obama as the nominee. &amp;nbsp;That would be change I can believe in from the Clintons. &amp;nbsp;</description></item><item><title>Obama takes superdelegate lead</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/05/12/1010226.aspx#1010449</link><pubDate>Mon, 12 May 2008 16:45:11 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1010449</guid><dc:creator>Kathryn Irby - Gulfport, MS</dc:creator><description>Obama will be the next President!

It must hurt to be that damn stupid. Here we are stuck in Iraq, with our military bogged down in a stupid war that creates more terrorists than it defeats. We are seen by the global community as a nation that violates its own laws and tortures its enemies. The economy is in a recession and we've got a housing foreclosure crisis in which thousands of people are losing their homes. Gas is almost $4 a gallon, and the Earth's climate is steadily warming as a result of our own misguided dependence on fossil fuels, and all she can worry about is how much a politician loves his country?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;News Flash, Patty! Sen. Obama loves America just as much as Sen. McCain, or you or I or anyone else, but that is not the point. The point is that the U.S. has some serious problems now, and we need to find a way to come together and unite behind common-sense policies that change the direction we have been headed as a superpower, or everything really will fall apart beyond our ability to ever repair it. That will mean reaching across the aisle and building coalitions with conservatives, liberals, Democrats, and Republicans (just as Obama did in the Illinois state senate) to focus on practical solutions. The old labels don't matter anymore, and we need a leader who appeals to our &amp;quot;better angels&amp;quot; and desire to hope and work for a better future rather than someone who plays on our fears instead.</description></item><item><title>Obama takes superdelegate lead</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/05/12/1010226.aspx#1010453</link><pubDate>Mon, 12 May 2008 16:45:42 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1010453</guid><dc:creator>BL, Cincinnati OH</dc:creator><description>Obama supporters are under estimating the people who can't stand Obama, his wife, and more importantly, his supporters and as a result, Obama will pay in November and there isn't a dam thing you or any of the Obama supporters can do about it. &lt;br&gt;Bam!

There are only two things that could possibly cause a Clinton to take a number two spot: either the Clintons have a hitman targeting the number one, or the Clintons have knowledge of an assassination plot on the number one. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Likewise, after the clashes between them over the last year and a bit, there are only two things that could possibly cause Obama to select Clinton as his running mate: He has a hitman after her, or he has knowledge of an assassination plot on her. These would merely be more dramatic ways to get the VP he wants.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In other words: It won't happen.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-------------&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;1.WVa, Ky and southern Ohio can leave the union and set up a new country. &lt;br&gt;2. Hilary Clinton can be named president, Bill Clinton can be named VP, Lanny Davis can be named AG, James Carville can be named Sec. of State and Wesley Clark can form a new army. &lt;br&gt;3. All those hard working whites can live in bliss forever. &lt;br&gt;4. You can move there and become &amp;quot;patty, potlick, ky&amp;quot;. &lt;br&gt;5. The rest of us can go about changing this country under Barack's leadership! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;---------------&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Sounds like an awesome movie, we should figure out a way to bring Abe back from the dead so he can twice witness the rise and downfall of a breakoff country.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;----------&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;we Hillary supporters will not supported Obama we do not believe in hate,we believe in united &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;--------------&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Way to be a democrat, way to unite behind the party!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;--------------&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Soooooooooooooo!!! &amp;nbsp;Does not impress me. &amp;nbsp;Just another misguided delegate. &amp;nbsp;Those delegates could go down in defeat in November. &amp;nbsp;Think about it. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;--------------&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Based on that last statement I'm not sure you have the ability to think. How can you tell someone else to?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-------------&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;At this point I am ready for a bush 3rd term.At least we know John McCain loves this country. The USA doesn't need a radicals like the Obamas. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;---------------&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;When you get sent to Iraq and explode, we'll see how much you truly like John McCain.</description></item></channel></rss>
