These unions that endorse Obama or Edwards are showing some back bone.
It takes courage to stand up to the Clinton 'mean machine'.

Considering Mark Penn is a 'union buster', why did the AFT support Clinton ?
It seems odd.

Who is Obama. Why did he plan plan to run for a presidency? Because he is half black, half white? If that was his primary reason to do so he is mistaken. Race has nothing to do with running for the highest post in the nation. Rather it has to do with capability, sinserety and most of all accountability. If he is all of these and more, he might have a good bet not because of his mixed race as many ould like us to bleive.

csh, IL — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 19:42:08 GMT

Pretty sad when this is the best news the Obama campaign has. He has been far behind Hillary for months and has fallen even further behind in the last month or so. Hillary is now polling at 50% or above in a field of 8 candidates which is amazing and a real testament to the quality of the campaign she has run.

Obama has no relevant experience to offer at this time. Two years in the US senate hardly prepares someone for the presidency. Obama and Edwards never had a chance against Hillary – she is simply too strong amongst democrats to beat.

The reality is that the '08 election will be determined in the purple states like CO, AZ, NV, NM, MI and Montana. Hillary cannot carry those states.

Please go to Obama's website and read his speeches and points of view. You could also read his two books.His writing shows his tremendous intelligence and depth of person. His upbringing and mixed race has established in him the ability to see issues from all sides,to think reasonablly, to unify and ultimately to problem solve and get things done.

If you think Hildabeast has more governing experience than Obama you are simply wrong. If elected President Obama will have 11 years to her 8.She is pretending that being 1st Lady gives her leadership experience to be Pres. All she really earned as 1st lady is alot of corrupt bagage and humiliation on a world stage from her husbands infedelity.

"Real Democrat" Being referred to as an idiot by you is actually a perverse form of flattery. I’m not sure you’ll know what that means though.

I must have hit a nerve - I guess it must be depressing to hate Hillary and have to face the fact that she is winning this race.

Jodie, Volga,SD — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 21:01:07 GMT

you can go to the dialy kos website and view Hilary and Obama's voting record on the votes where they were both present. Obama voted progressively 17 times and Hilary progressively only 4 times. The rest she voted with the Republicans. She votes like them then bashes them out of the other side of her mouth.Obama says what he means the 1st time and stands behind it.

csh, IL — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 21:22:29 GMT

Obama promised a different kind of campaign “The Politics of Hope” but has had to resort to attacks as he falls further and further behind Hillary in polls and money.

Also, Obama and Hillary have IDENTICAL voting records related the Iraq war with one exception – Obama voted to confirm Gen Pace and Hillary voted against him.

Why don’t you tell us what these votes were that Hillary voted with the Republicans? I’ll anxiously await your response. Here’s hoping you can back up your argument with facts.

Dawn — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 21:28:11 GMT

Isn't it interesting that MSM hasn't given MA Gov Deval Patrick's endorsement of Senator Obama the same attention it gave to John Lewis' endorsement of Hillary Clinton? No one can discount John Lewis' place in history and contributions to the African American community. I know I owe him a huge debt of gratitude that I can only repay by fully exploiting the opportunities that he and others created for me. But all that said, John Lewis has NO political influence on the national level. Outside of GA and old guard of the civil rights movement, he has very little name recognition left. We witnessed 23 years ago that his endorsement of Walter Mondale over Jesse Jackson did not move one measurable percentage of the Black vote away from Jesse Jackson. With all that said, it seems odd that the MSM would give his endorsement such importance, but, by comparison, give very little coverage thus far to Gov Patricks' endorsement of Senator Obama. Not only can he have great influence in his neighboring state of NH, but Patrick is only the 2nd African American to be elected governor in the ENTIRE history of the country. That's significant, especially in comparison to a congressman from GA. But of course fair coverage wouldn't feed the MSM's narrative of Senator Obama not being "Black enough", eventhough apparently Mr. 'Blacker than thou', Jesse Jackson, wasn't "Black enough" for the civil rights establishment in '84. Then again, he probably was "too Black" for them.

If Hilary is such natural leader and Obama so inexperienced, why did he make a speech at an anti-war rally in 2002, predicting to the tee what the results of this war would be? He was told not to risk losing his senate race because of this stance, but he speaks in truths. Hilary voted to allow Bush to take us to war,now saying she was voting for inspections Yeah right, so who's the naive one? She has no judgement and votes with the political winds.

cash...is that short for cash, as in Hsu cash? Keep referring to your Vinod Gupta-generated polls and Mark Penn's pulling polls out of his arse to buttress your notion that Hillary has that big of a lead. Meanwhile, us Obama supporters will continue to outraise her, outorganize her and deliver more voters to the polls come primary season. This is a battle against the entrenched Democratic establishment almost as much as it's against the Repugnantcan establishment. Since they both represent the same Bush-Clinton-Bush-Clinton dynasty, it's time for both to go away and a breath of fresh air to replace them. That change, that REAL change, is embodied in Barack Obama. And csh, one last thing, one challenge for you. Please list for me and the others why Hillary is perceived to have more experience than Obama?

During the Youtube debates Obama said he would meet with the leader of Iran in the first year of his presidency without precondition, a complete and different point of view then the Bush Administration. Hilary took the Bushlite stance and called Obama naive and inexperienced. Now she with all her grand judgement has given her signature to open the door on Iran to Bush. She now says she would meet with Iranian pres without precondition.She is a fraud.

Obama is still the candidate of hope and change. Hilary tried to bash him many times and whenever he points out the diffences between them based on the facts, her campaing cries out "foul, what about the politics of hope?" what nobody's suppose to point out her truths, because why, shes a woman?!! I thought she wasn't running on that fact, but on her imaginary experience.

Mark Billingsley, Sacramento, Calif. — Fri, 19 Oct 2007 00:08:56 GMT

csh, you don't really subscribe to that old Hillary rant about Obama's attacking her do you? I figured you for a little more experienced, a little less naive than that. Hillary loves to be seen as the victim - she's not. When Obama made his pledge he was talking about the personal attacks that so define the Repugnantcans. He never said he wasn't going to point out Hillary's or any other candidate's flip flops, half truths and errors in judgment. It's come time, now as people are starting to pay attention to the race, for Obama to draw the critical distinctions between him and Hillary. For one, her blatant error on Iraq and the huge miscalculation on Iran. This nomination fight is more about judgment than experience - of which Obama has more than Hillary. Now that's a fact, csh. I know you've been anxiously awaiting our reply. I just backed my argument with facts. I'm still anxiously awaiting your reply on why you think Hillary has more experience than Barack.

Good point Dawn,

How about Deval Patrick's endorsement for Obama? It shows a clear bias when you guys ignore this and write an endorsement of Hillary by Carole Simpson who is a retired ABC news anchor who used to fill in on weekends and very few people know unless they are real news junkies. Shame on you MSNBC!

Obama did not vote to give Bush authorization to Bush to go to war! He couldn't becuase he was only running for office. Also Obama did vote against funding (I'm fairly sure) at least once, when Hillary did not. Obama gets acknowedgment from his former and current colleagues of being a fully capable person to do what needs to be done by the President of the USA. Before you shout out, gets some facts. check out www.barackobama.com and you will learn lots. Obama can and will win. If you do not know him yet then look him up.
