The drumbeats by the conservative commentators like Bill Bennet may have more material on Michelle Obama for next week after her Princeton thesis which was supposed to be sealed until November reveals her thoughts on Black-White race relation.

Michelle Obama's "For the first time in my adult lifetime I am really proud of my country", may "fire up and ready to go" those reluctant conservatives to vote for war hero John McCain.

The Cindy McCain incident is also an example of how the Republicans will use Michelle Obama statement to motivate their conservative base with 30 seconds commercials.

Now, we have Michelle Obama' Princeton thesis may give those conservatives more ammunition with excerpt like the following:

“I have found that at Princeton, no matter how liberal and open-minded some of my white professors and classmates try to be toward me, I sometimes feel like a visitor on campus; as if I really don’t belong. Regardless of the circumstances under which I interact with whites at Princeton, it often seems as if, to them, I will always be black first and a student second,”

Hilary Clinton accusing Barack Obama of doing the exact same thing that she's such a pro at doing, and then trying to say "Shame on you" with a straight face? I suppose her closing comments in Thursday night's debate were nothing more than thin veneer, and her true colors have come shining back through. Desperate times call for desperate measures. I'm voting for change, and I hope you'll all join me.

"Meet me in Ohio. Let's have a debate about your tactics and your behavior in this campaign.”

Um, wow, that's a real brave challenge you've made there Hillary, considering there's already a debate scheduled in Ohio for Tuesday.

I think I've got whiplash from watching this Clinton campaign. So much for the conciliatory little speech at the end of the last debate (which, by the way, is not featured in a new Clinton campaign commercial). I'm sure she'll have guns blazing in the debate on Tuesday. What a turnaround from Thursday's debate. I guess she's trying everything on for size to find something that works. Pathetic.

Anyway, boo hoo, we are here and to compare Pres. Bush and Sen. Obama without comparing the diverse differences in character and intellect just does not seem to fit the arguement. Oh, and Obama never said that HE would be a compasionate conservative.

The Re-imagining of Hillary Clinton-

Rather than attempt to sway votes, I want to discuss what it means when people who have put personal ambitions ahead of principles suddenly reimagine their life histories to achieve immediate goals. Hillary Clinton not only has not spent the majority of her life “working for poor families,” but she used her sizable clout as First Lady to defeat, suppress and ultimately disempower those dedicating their lives to this cause. Her supposed mentor, Marian Wright Edelman of the Children’s Defense Fund, was among those pleading with Ms. Clinton to oppose welfare “reform” in 1996 -- to no avail. The historical record shows that Clinton has not spent her life working for poor families, poor children, or fighting for King’s principles; rather, she chose to lend her considerable talents to a six-year stint on the Wal-Mart Board of Directors, and as an attorney represented banks, Wal-Mart and other corporate interests with the Rose Law Firm in Arkansas. Granting Senator Clinton this fictional and reimagined personal history as a poor person’s advocate demeans those who actually have spent their lives working for the poor. It is particularly outrageous when federally funded legal service programs -- upon whom the poor depend -- were slashed to the bone during the Clinton presidency...
-
...Unlike thousands in her generation who sought to organize among the poor to fulfill Dr. King’s legacy, or who joined Cesar Chavez working for economic justice for farm workers, or who worked to unionize low-income women, or who worked for legal services or in civil rights law firms, Hillary Clinton pursued a corporate path.
That was certainly her right. But having taken that path, Senator Clinton has no right to sell an imaginary version of herself as having dedicated her life toward working for poor people.
For Hillary Clinton, that was the road not taken...

Another sound bite! If only there were some unexpected questions proferred on the upcoming debate...dealing with issues not yet addressed. Give them the unexpected issues, not previously covered in debates. i.e. Do either of them have any goals regarding our electoral processes to better safeguard against fraudulent and dual voter registration? What should the federal government due to (federal elections) to help ensure there are no disenfranchised voters and that each vote is counted lawfully? How can we better ensure the sanctity of our electoral processes? After all, this is only about the core of our democracy.
What about FEMA? What are their plans to better implement emergency services for victims of national disasters?
Does either one have a plan to take care of those 9/11 firefighters and other responders who desperately need better benefits and medical care but can't afford it? And what about HRC's tax returns? We have yet to see an 'on air' query.
We know what their 'stances' are on immigration, the war and all the other talking points covered ad nauseam. There are many other issues that are important too. Catch them off guard - ask what they haven't been asked about before at 'debates'.
And shame on Campbell Brown (CNN) for the shabby and trite questions in their attempt to 'create news'. Worse moderator ever. So disappointed in John King. And shame on all media for not taking the road less traveled. Now, that would not only be real news, but something quite valuable for all of us. Quit playing gotchas and play fair. Both the candidates and the media should be required to think, not merely repeat catch questions and responses. It is the moderator's role to facillitate, not instigate!

Go Hillary. She is right to attack. Obama has attacked all along and yet she has been held to another standard that he himself set up: any attack on Obama is negative politics, any attack on Hillary is just fine. Obama's health system will not work because of the opt-out he offers. We force people to wear helmets, we force all people to pay sales tax, we have laws to punish those who have no car insurance yet Obama offers a program that will immediately fail for the opt-out he offers. If all pay, it is cheaper for me. If many opt-out, I still have to pay for their emergencies, their medical attention, and their children's medical attention. Wake up America, Obama is not the best candidate.

It's unnecessary for the Obama campaign to make such baseless claims at this point. Obama supporters clearly aren't paying attention. They jumped on his bandwagon based on eloquent oratory w/ precious little content, so detailed policy comparisons are irrelevant. Those of us who struggled to find policy differences between these two moderate candidates were unable to find many, although he has the good fortune not to have been in the Senate when the war vote was taken (his voting record suggests that he is unlikely to have voted against it). If you were a voter who wasn't attracted to the rhetoric, then you probably preferred Hillary's obvious command of the policy details. As a reader of many of these blogs, it was frustrating to see her constantly saddled w/ NAFTA baggage because the voters were unable to distinguish between President Clinton's policies and hers. She has said repeatedly that she wanted to fix NAFTA and Obama has said the same. The country is sailing on a sea of intoxicating demagoguery and reality no longer seems to be of interest to anyone.

Please publish my comment as it is directly related to the tactics used by Mr. Obama throughout the campaign.

NBC is taking the role as judge here and exposing 'facts' so why not list the cited example of another fact offered by Mr Obama during the debate and his admission?
Why won't you do that? I have heard Chuck Todd offer his take on facts, performances and outcomes before. This is important to all people voting. Your station made this a national issue so why not publish the entire story?
You are the fact checkers? Or is that only where Mrs Clinton speaks..? I don't understand why you would not tell your readers. You are a news organization and that admission..however you portray it is news. That is a fact.

Matthew, Houston, TX — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 22:21:41 GMT

What a hypocrite! I just heard her speak about how Barack has been the person being the negative attack dog. I really used to have respect for this woman but as she keeps losing, her true nature as a devisive, petty bitch (yes, I said 'bitch') who tries to deflect criticism of her actions by blaming the other person for those same actions. Never mind that Barack has engaged in no negative attacks (pointing out differences IS NOT a negative attack, all you Billary fans so stop your whining).

I could go on but I won't. Know this, I am an independant voter who was initially impressed by both Barack and Hillary. As the campaigns have gone on and I've seen Hillary trying to deflect Barack by stupid, petty attacks (no experience, WRONG, plagiarism, WRONG, Rezko ties, WRONG, etc., etc., etc.) rather than actually debating the issues, as she has denigrated entire states as not mattering because she did not win there, as she almost never congratulates Obama for his wins, it reminds me of a petty, intelligent but stupid little kid who just can't understand why everyone isn't enthusiastically supporting her. If my child were to act like she has been acting, they would be punished and we would have a long talk about respect and tolerance of others who disagree with them.

This is how I hear Hillary: Whaaaa! Why don't people agree with me? Can't they see I'm right and they're wrong? Whaaa! Why won't they vote for me? Whaaaa! I don't like any of you who disagree with me or don't vote for me . . . so there! Whaaaa! You people who voted for me but couldn't deliver state, why should I thank you, you don't matter anyway.

It's about time that Obama called her on her flip-flops on NAFTA. While true that she didn't vote for it, she was all for it in the 90's. Only recently changing her position...how funny that was around the same time she announced she would run for President!

Also on the health plan, she has stated several times that it is "mandated" and that "garnishing wages" is an option. If it's not a mandate and wages aren't garnished, then her plan looks an awful lot like Obama's! And where was Hillary's outrage during the debate, when Obama said that she would garnish wages, all she did was sit there and fake smile.

Maybe since it's Oscar season she's trying to hone her acting skills. She's already good at the fake cry and faking compassion. Now she's working on fake anger! Good work Hillary, you almost had me fooled!

Bill Clinton has already done a pretty good job of that for himself. Hillary is the second most polarizing person in American politics, after George Bush. She can not beat McCain.

The jig is up, Hill. Just pack it in, before you waste the rest of your money in this self-trashing negative campaign garbage.

While we get into false and misleading mailers, I would also like to mention the poll reporting by the media. THey are lumping Texas and Ohio in same sentences and say they are within the margin of error. Please google "state primary election" and you will see three Ohio Polls, Rasmussen poll thru 2-22-08 has Clinton 48 to 40, Washington Post (your favorite basher) 50 to 43 and Survey USA thru the 19th at 52 to 43 and if this is within the margin of error, there's got to be something wrong with all this polling.

And, after we halfway BELIEVE her, she comes out today and continues her frivolous, dirty attacks!? This isn't Presidential, this is a PERSONAL VENDETTA from a losing campaign!! She's clawing and scratching because she now realizes her "inevitable" campaign was derailed by a truly genuine, inspiring leader.

As a instructor, teaching courses the history, development and application of Government, I have paid attention to candidates and campaigns for three decades.
This is my personal observation of the Obama campaign; Senator Obama has a persoanl gift of oratory. He has learned the skill of using the right vocal tone, spacing, emphasis on certain words. In short, he has a dynamic approach to speaking.
People tend to hear what he says. Unfortunately, many do not seem to really listen to what he says and does not say. I am still waiting for him to show me something positive, original and that he has accomplished for the American People.
It is easy to talk about change. Especially, when it appears to be a popular idea. People should remember that we heard the same message 9 years ago...

I hardly think Obama has the right to criticize Clinton; he is a JUNIOR senator who has not even completed one full term. He was not there when crucial decisions were made; he does not know the facts as presented to the Senate at the time. Further, I don't like the way he intrudes his arm and hand into Senator Clinton's personal space when he is talking during a sit-down debate.

Excellent article. It looks as if Obama will say anything to get votes, but has not addressed his relationship with Farrakan and his anti American stance.

Obama's speeches for change and hope doesn't match his campaigns actions. America wake up, he is a politician in and out raised from the political environment of Chicago. To that, he is NO outsider.

Has America or the media truly scrutized what Obama's stands for? I think not!

The media bias in favor of Obama has been unpleasantly shameful on the media parts. But I'm please to see that slowly Obama actions are being compared to his speeches.

Speeches are fine, but what matters is action and the experience to make it happen.

As a culture, America is driven by first impressions of the "high school most popular student" syndrome. But what we all know is that its the student that studies and does the work that is successful in the long run.

America dont waste your vote. Hillay 08!

AN OPEN LETTER TO BARACK OBAMA

Your mailings, pointed out by Mrs. Clinton today, make you a hypocrite. Saying one thing in public, than you use mailings that are wrong, deceiving and hit below the belt.

You SHOULD be ashamed of using a quote from a newspaper that the newspaper itself retracted as not being a correct quote.

The Obama health care plan is inferior. You only need basic reading skills to read the Clinton health care plan and they your mailing, and see you're either using hyperbole or are simply printing and distributing an untruth. The Clinton web site (see link below) says: The tax credits will ensure that working families never have to pay more than a limited percentage of their income for health care.

http://www.hillaryclinton.com/feature/healthcareplan/

You are practicing the OLD politics of Washington and your claims of practicing the "politics of hope" and giving voters a different kind of choice have now been obliterated much like the spy satellite shot down earlier this week by the USS Lake Erie, named after that body of water on the northern border of Ohio. Obama is clearly cherry picking, parsing, asking what the definition of is, is, in order to make his attack.

Perhaps your candidacy, now rogue just like the satellite, will meet the same fate in the state bordered by its namesake lake.

Wouldn't that be eerie?

Obama's campaign 'honeymoon' must come to an end.He's used speeches from years back. He's pretending to be someone that he isn't. Plagerism is not the issue with Obama, but its his authenticity.He's not being genuine, and when one is not genuine in their dialogue it raises some serious questions about the person's qualification to be President of the USA.

He doesn't say how much his social plans will cost the taxpayer or where will all that money come from to pay for his programs.

I question Obama's fundraising. I think Oprah Winfrey is doing something behind the scenes to funnel millions of dollars to Obama. I feel there is something fishy going on.

Hillary Clinton knows the 'foreign diplomatic' landscape a lot better than Obama and she experienced first hand how her husband President Bill Clinton presided a strong national economy which quite frankly Obama is not ready to manage on day one as Hillary Clinton would be as President.

Hillary Clinton is more realistic when discussing the issues while Obama is using 'inspirational words of grandeur' that will be very difficult to turn into reality. Wake up Americans and vote wisely.

Hillary is having a meltdown, first she is honored to be on stage with Obama and now she wants to harm him. Those mailers were sent out weeks ago, but she now attacks. What an Acting job. She and her 35 years of experience did go for NAFTA, because she was Co-President she uses as her experience.

We know the MSNBC debate Monitors are going to give Hillary a pass and be hard as usual on Obama

BILL, HILLARY, JOHN McCAIN AND BUSH and their WAR have ruined our Country.

As Bill Clinton's Vote for NAFTA has ruined our Economy.Hillary's "Experience" is Bill's Legacy ...NAFTA, Welfare Reform, (GATT94)WTO, Telecommunications Act of 1996, Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act
.

.These were the achievements of the Clinton Presidency ... She can't say she has "Experience" and say she didn't support any of the efforts that defined Bill's Presidency ...
If she supported them, it shows poor judgment on her part ...

if she was against them, it shows that she didn't have influence with her husband regarding her disagreements with these issues ...

So what is it? Poor Judgment or inability to influence people and her President Husband to accept her so-called position against NAFTA?

Either way, those traits do not benefit the United States if they are displayed by the President

NAFTA signed into law by President Bill Clinton. [12/08/93]. They were Co-Presidents then, of course she supported it.

The Clintons are trying to revise History because Bill Clinton signing that NAFTA Bill has caused America's economy to be in the horrible condition it is in.

Of Course Hillary now has to distance herself from the truth as always. Her Vote for the Iraq War was WRONG on DAY 1
Her Solutions CAN NOT fix the MESS SHE and HER HUSBAND as well as George W Bush have created.

We have SPENT BILLIONS AND BILLIONS on her WAR Vote, we have lost our young women and men in this War as well as hundreds of thousands of Iraqi lives.

Our Infrastructure is crumbling and we borrow from China, but yet Hillary says her VOTE FOR WAR has nothing to DO with our poor economy.

Hillary and McCain are one in the same, of course they are BEST FRIENDS BFF.Hillary like Bush, cannot admit when WRONG!!!

But she does not have the SOLUTION to the MESS she and her President Husband have created.

What is so amazing they think they can fool the American People and she thinks her ANGRY Tactic can Fool Americans and News Media.

His message of Change is nothing but empty rhetorics and he would say anything that people would like to hear except the real truth. Obama relies on blowing a lot of air because he does not have a record to stand on. So he says he will change politics in Washington? His actions now belies what he says. He is politics as usual.

He is tickling their ears with what they want to hear. He is not being realistic about the issues, and change for the sake of just change is not real change at all.

TheTruthHurts, San Jose CA — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 22:27:40 GMT

I understand why Hillary is upset. Barack is casting more doubt about Hillary than he probably has himself about her. Nonetheless, his statements are accurate and can be backed up when challenged. One could argue it's misleading, but at the same time, it's true. Certainly, this is not that big a deal in politics today.

Barack has said repeatedly that both want universal health care. Both seek to get there differently. He's pointing out a challenge in getting there with her plan. She's done the same with her claims that his plan leaves out 15 million people.

On NAFTA, she supported it; her husband signed it. Of course, now that jobs are gone in the midwest, she saying it needs "change." I'm sure she believes that and is right. Problem is, she won't be able to escape her previous support. Again, her current position is probably fine, but the truth of her previous position is being exploited by Barack for political gain

Is that OK? You be the judge. Is Barack living up to his ideals? You be the judge. What I will say is Hillary is surely the pot talking to the kettle.

She dosen't know what hard times are. Obama comes from the middle class in this country, Hillary comes from that 1% wealth. Who can you trust? I put my trust in someone who has been there and lived it like me.Just because a fat broad went down on Willie, is nothing amazing.So don't claim to know what me or other middle class folks go through all day everyday.

Shame on you HIllary for the loss of the Democratic Congress after 40 years of leadership. The Dems still have not recovered from the profound legacy of loss that you left for the Dem party.

Shame on you Hillary for the Mandatory Minimum Sentences that were a Reagan program that you and your husband expanded during your terms as co-presidents. You supported the distinction between rock cocaine and powder cocaine. You supported a criminal justice system injustice that destroyed the lives of so many young black men as they were subjected to the false distinction of the Clinton laws.

You are such an incompetent CEO of your 2008 campaign that you have had to borrow money from your personal funds and your 2006 Senate campaign. You have blown more than $100 million dollars in a disorganized, profligate manner. How do you have the nerve to stand before American Working Families who are facing foreclosure, NAFTA job loss, and health care problems and speak about financial matters? Where are your tax returns?

SHAME ON YOU HILLARY!!
You are not ready on Day 1 to run anything. Your incompetent mess of a campaign proves that beyond a shadow of a doubt.

OK - The point is Hillary supported NAFTA, and she wants to pretend that she didn't. So, her dishonesty about this is ok, but Obama pointing out their differences on trade policy isn't?
Here is a good article showing several instances of Clinton praising NAFTA:

I think hillary just blew it! everyone knows that she said her health care plan would be a mandate for everyone to buy their own insurance, there would be help for the lower class but we all know that the people above lower class to middle class would hurt the most. They would have to buy insurance with no help.This wouuld be hard on them seeing how they are just squeeking by to live.And yes they would be fined if they didnt carry insurance on their famalies. anyone reading up on her plan would know this. I was still wondering who would be the better candidate, but now that Hillary opened her mouth and lied through her teeth i guess my choice is Obama! Obama all along is the calm and cool runner. he doesnt blow up and accuse people of the things other politicians do, Good Luck Senator Obama you have mt vote!

Hilary is losing because she campaigns like Sally Jesse Raphiel. That was fine when no one was listening 14 months ago, but now that people are beginning to tune in Hilary only speaks in the "I" and not the "We".

It seems it's all about her, it's going no where, the EXTRA LARGE SMILE, the finger point, the "As you know" answer followed by the "Clearly" closing I've heard so many times, I can't listen anymore.

When Hilary talks about her accomplishments I can't recall anything. But I do recall she voted for this Iraq War.

It is interesting how Hilary wraps herself in Bill's record when it helps her out with voters, including his record on NAFTA, but now has a differnt opinion and position on NAFTA in this campaign. She practices the policy of wrapping herself up in Bill's record, except, except, except and except when it does not help her out.

Obama will welcome that debate on tactics and behavior. And then he should come out strong pointing out the following:

1. The Clintons sealing their records until 2012.
2. The Clintons again demonstrating a lack of transparency by not making their tax returns avaiable to the public.
3. The Clintons unable to run a campaign that is financially mismanged.
4. Hillary allowing "robo" calls in the California primary in the last days of the campaign using Barack's middle name "Hussein" to score political points.
5. The use of the "race card" by her and Bill in the South Carolina primary.
6. Hillary have mailings sent out, in the last 24 hours, indicating Obama's vote on "present" in the state legislature meant he was against abortion and anti-women. And all this from a person who grew up in the upper-class suburb of Park Ridge, Illinois, and knew that wasn't true or a sign he lacked courage.

Folks, enough is enough! Once again she resorts to the politics of personal destruction and deflects the campaign into side issues rather than substantive debate, when all signs point to the fact that she and Bill will lose the election. Yes, it is time for us to say enough to the old school of politics, the polictics of the past.it is time for us to say goodbye to the Clintons and move on to better ways, a better life for all Americans.

Hillary is right on. Obama's plan will not succeed because anyone can opt-out. Thus, we will be right back where we started and I will be paying for those without health care insurance. We force people to have car insurance, we force everyone to pay sales tax and income tax, the federal government forces lots of regulations on the states if they are to recevive federal aid. Obama's attack on health care is unjust and incorrect and it is appealing to the baseless understanding of the issues. Yet, he says he is for universal health care. That is the lie. That is the great lie of just one of his proposals. Yet he calmly refutes this just as he calmly gave misinformation in his military story in the debate. He speaks calmly and rightiously, he leads by words that are untrue. He critizes Hillary on her Cuba position yet he adopted more of her stance in the debate than previously. The man talks a lot...out of both sides of his mouth. He is courting the black vote by identity. Nothing wrong there. Yet, he cannot find time to support an important national meeting. Again, what is his value? Hillary is behind, has had very few blacks voting for her but did not use the excuse of the campaign to back out, even though at this point she is unlikely to garner more black votes by going. It's called walking the walk. Barack is more interested in talking the talk and has been doing nothing more since the start of the campaign. Go on Barrack, get those Republican votes for the primary. You will lose them in the election and then, where will we be? He has built up a catalog of attacks for John McCain that little by little will reduce the number of those independants and those less than ultra left wing democrats. The middle of the road Democrat should find little in Barack Obama to support. He is impulsive, without sufficient understanding of the world politic, and will find it impossible to work with the congress and senate.

And she can only posture like this when she is NOT debating. I saw the debate in Texas and she very clearly said there is very little difference between her and Obama. She wants to get on his bandwagon, but she won't admit that her own has failed. She called it "an honor" to be there with him that night. Where was her anger then? She is a coward looking for publicity, and will say anything to get it. And now she wants it to look like she is challenging him to meet her in another debate? The debate has already been scheduled.

I used to like the Clintons, but they have once again gone too far. The Clinton campaign adopted Bush/Rove tactics months ago when they attacked him in South Carolina, among other places. They've implied that Obama is "all talk," and they implied that his healthcare plan leaves out millions of Americans, despite the fact that Robert Reich, a cabinet member in the Clinton administration, agrees that anyone who wants health care can get it. Nothing in Obama's mailers was inaccurate, unlike the unfair attacks the Clintons made against Obama's health care plan. The Clintons will say anything they can to win, no matter what the effect will be on the party or our country. It's always more about the Clintons than the country to them.

Obama's change seems to be about changing his mind and his own brand of compromising ethics. He is now showing us who he really is and that is he is deeply involved in the old political games of sending out false information and distorting facts, such as his twisting the facts about U.S. soldiers using Taliban weapons and his false information about Senator Clinton and her policies, which in reality are far more SOUND and detailed than Obama's.

Voting for a great orator is very, very dangerous, since his lack of experience and his dishonesty make a dangerous combination for the American people. Obama is NOT fit to be President nor can he be trusted at this point. It is too bad, I actually liked the guy, but he is now depicting himself to be very inexperienced and his errors in judgment are not trust worthy.

In addition, he has been pandering to the Hispanic community yet has not done anything for the Hispanic community.

Hillary, on the other hand has been helping the Hispanic community in Texas for many years.

The American people made a grave mistake voting for Bush, a liberal disaster which Obama offers is just as dangerous as the Conservative disaster of Bush. Perhaps more so, because we expect more from a Democrat. Yet Obama is demonstrating that he is so inexperienced that he is a danger for the American people.

The most scary thing is his lack of experience on the international level. There is no way Obama can clean up the global mess created by Bush. Hillary appears to be the only one qualified to clean up our economy, healthcare and the Global Disaster.

Obama's plan relies competition and freedom of choice, supported a Health Care Insurance Exchange, a government plan, and a research and review structure to explore options and lower costs. Hillary's plan is mandated so that people have to pay what it costs and accept what it gives, even if the costs are high and the options are not what's desired. It is supported by the government being willing to garnish wages of those who do not come on board.

Obama's plan is open. Though clearly delineated, it will be the product of negotiations that are open to the public and can be viewed on CSPAN. Hillary's plan is closed. Like her holiday ad when she offered a grateful nation gifts from under her tree, this one is already wrapped and ready to go--on Day One. That's what she means when she says she is about solutions: It's a done deal. We don't need to be patronized, especially by someone whose patrons include the drug and insurance companies that are already overcharging us.

As we can already see with other mandated insurance plans like no-fault insurance, prices go up, not down. Drug companies and insurance companies that have funded Hillary's campaign could be the real winners if her plan were to go through.

Obama's plan involves a process that makes it transitional, giving incentives that benefit health care providers, lowering their own insurance costs along with the cost of providing care. It benefits everyone.

Copying others' campaign speeches or phrases that worked for the other politician in their own race,but lacking in any real basis of his own originality or belief. He misleads the people much like a "cult" leader misleads the people who have lost so much and are looking for a better way. Yet he has yet to explain HOW he will change things,in Washington and in our lives.He does not answer questions in the debates, but changes the topic completely to his own desire. Hillary Clinton is not the only person drawing a clear resemblance of the charm and promises of the Bush Campaigns, that we all know were false or failed. Can the American people take the chance of another charismatic promise maker failing them again?Is four years of waste to follow eight years of failure? Or do they run with the sure thing: experience and results? As a democrat, I will vote for experience, and if Obama wins the nomination, I and many others will vote for The Republican. Having a democrat in office will only benefit us if the person can do the job, for ALL of the people.I find it utterly appalling that the public allows all attacks on Hillary as fair, and no attacks on Obama.Have we really gone so far as to not be fair because we are afraid of racism being shouted, instead of total equality for all?

I was entranced originally by Barack Obama -- his promises of change, his promises that he was a "different'" type of politician, his disdain of the politics of usual.

Unfortunately, the more I watch his speeches, and look at how he runs his campaign, and how his supporters act and talk, the more convinced I am that he doesn't, and can't, walk the talk he talks.

The mailers sent to voters in Ohio are pure and simple the old style attack politics -- nothing less. And what is worse, they aren't even original -- since the healthcare attack mailer copies the "harry & louise"add of the early nineties which de-railed universal health care.

Of course, copying someone else's successful campaign strategy is something he's done before -- even if its not "plagirism", lifting, not one line, but Duval Patrick's entire campaign strategy (or should we say David Axelrod's) does prove one thing -- Obama is a copycat who excels at the political game.

Hillary is losing by 5% in Minnesota, by 3% in Oregon, and she is losing by double digits in Nevada and Colorado. Check out the polls at: www.rasmussenreports.com Barack Obama and Hillary are both democrats, and they are both good people who value the same issues and same set of core beliefs that I believe in as a Democrat. But Hillary has lost some of my respect with her slash and burn style of politics. She should drop out of the race and show her support for Obama. That would be the noble thing to do and it would help unite the Democratic Party. We don't need 4 more years of the right wing conservative agenda, and 100 more years of this war in Iraq. Vote for Barack Obama in the Texas and Ohio primaries and let's get a Democratic victory in November!

Obama's disturbing Africentrism

February 23, 2008 1:00 am Eastern ?

2008 By Floyd and Mary Beth Brown

Worldnet Daily

"Barack Obama's church, Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, which he has attended since 1991, has some very unique and disturbing ideas and beliefs. It is a self-proclaimed Africentric Christian church, which means its members embrace their connection with Africa, and its teachings are centered on all things African and African culture. Also, other African symbols such as the pan-African flag are prominently displayed.

Trips to Africa are regularly made by members. The church's longtime pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, once accompanied black supremacist Louis Farrakhan to Libya to meet with Col. Moammar Gadhafi. Obama has himself traveled repeatedly to his father's homeland, Kenya. He has a brother still living in that conflict-riddled country. Obama has even spoken out during his campaign about the current crisis in Kenya, where over 700 lives have been lost. The Marxist opposition leader, Raila Odinga, comes from the same tribe as Obama's late father. His older brother Roy, a militant Muslim, supports Obinga. Obinga reportedly has joined forces with an extremist Islamic group that wants to oust the presently pro-Western government of Kenya that won the recent elections. While campaigning in New Hampshire, Obama took a call from Odinga (who claims to be his cousin) and appears to have sided with him in the conflict.

"I believe in the power of the African-American religious tradition to spur social change," Obama claims. Not only that, he says he has questioned "the idolatry of the free market" because of his faith.

The socialist beliefs of Barack Obama's church should be a major concern to voters because they are far out of the mainstream of American thought. Obama's connection to the militant opposition leader in Kenya and his supporting militant Islamic groups trying to overthrow the U.S.-friendly government in that country should be of concern. Al-Qaida would love to see the takeover of Kenya occur."

People need to do their homework and look at the Hillary mailers too. Both candidates frame words to match policy positions. ALL candidates do this. These mailers have been out there for all to see for a while. Hillary is making a play, plain and simple. She's chosen the ill-suited role of attacker, and she'll fall on her own sword because of it.

I just want to say to Larry Allen from Miami, Florida: Don't blame your racism and bigotry on God. God did not show you that in a dream. You are a bigot if I ever did hear one. To be an American, you should not be voting for a person because of the color of his/her skin but because of what he/she stands for. Vote on the issues, and not because someone is white or black/ man or woman. You are such an idiot.

Anyway, on to Hillary: I have been a major supporter of Hillary Clinton ever since before she announced for certain that she would run for President in 08. However, her latest tricks and tactics have led me to lean more towards Barack Obama. Hillary is turning out to be a true politician (saying what she believes the voters want to hear just to win their votes). I had no idea that a fellow Democrat would stoop so low as to compare Senator Obama to the likes of President Bush. I am purely disgusted by this. And then to suggest a debate not on issues but on tactics, how RIDICULOUS!!! Stop being such a major b-i-t-c-h Senator Clinton. You are giving the Democratic Party bad representation.

Oh, by the way, you dummies, Senator Obama was not the leader and planner of the terror attacks on 9/11, so please stop calling him Osama. His name is Barack Obama. For all of you Republicans and Bush supporters, tell your president to do his job and find the man responsible for those attacks on 9/11.

It is funny that HRC talks about Obama giving speeches and having rallies. Isn't what they do when they campaign. Correct me if I am wrong. Doesn't HRC and John McCain have rallies and give Speeches??? Are they just ANGRY because Obama is better at giving speeches and holding rallies. Obama also goes out and talks will people just like the other 2 candadites. If I am understanding this correctly she is upset because he is campaigning. She is also attacking him now saying he is campaigning negatively. Come On let's be honest, She has been attacking him since day One. Now she is crying when he hits back. Do we really want a BITTER AND ANGRY person running the country?

People of this country go do you own research and stop listening the media. Make an informed decision, and dig into his voting record, where he attends church and who he is affiliated with, I did and for that reason I will not be voting for him. He as much a part of status quo as any other politician, he cannot even stand on the high standards he claims to have. A figure of change???? I am sick of living a country of sheep.

I can never forget the last few weeks of the last Clinton administration when pardons were sold around the world in order to fill Bill and Hillary's personal coffers. I had thought the selling of indulgences had gone out with the Spanish Inquisition. Wasn't illegal but hellishly immoral.
I hope and pray that people in this party will see the Clinton camp for what it is--down and dirty. Hillary is backed into a corner and is ready to scratch out any eyes she can to win the nomination. I was hoping for once in their political lives they would show a tiny modicum of class. And if you ask this Democrat, GW was a breath of fresh air after Bill Clinton ignored the terrorist acts on our country for years without much more than a slap on the wrist.

This is ridiculous, I read the mailers, I don't see how Obama is going negative against Clinton, he is describing the differences between his and her policy, something she has asked him to do over and over again. She is trying to Hype the mailer to get some attention, she is really desperate; this is pathetic. If she is doing all that over a mailer, what would she do once she is running against the Repulican hipocryte hillbilly machine. It will take more then crying and yelling to win elections.

Hillary does not make any move that is not completely calculated. She tried to set up Barack with the "I am so honored" line in the debate so that she could portray herself as a victim. She is trying to create a New Hampshire moment where she got sympathy votes from decent, caring people. She is trying to portray the most decent, brilliant candidate we've had in decades--OBAMA--as an unethical bully like her. The sooner the American people realize this, the sooner we can elect Obama Democratic nominee and ultimately President of the United States.

You know, the sick fact is that politicians "go negative" because it works in a lot of cases. Everything these campaigns say/do is because some poll predicted it would work. I myself hate the negative campaigning and I wish it simply did not work because then no campaign would do it. Im not making excuses for anyone- I just think that ultimately it is on the American public- it will stop when we show them that it does not work. So many campaigns actually show improvements in numbers after these kinds of attacks. Pretty sad for us.

We should try to understand another's point of view before becoming so angry.

People use the word politician like it is a bad word. There is good politics where you try and point out major policy differences and there is bad politics where you try to tear down an opponent over nit-picky drivel.

So, you want to talk about Tony Rezko? Let's talk about White Water, let's talk about being a Goldwater girl..She talks about her husband and what he did in the White House, but she left out Monica. Her husband being president has nothing to do with her achievements. Oh yea I forgot about Mandated HealthCare. That's where you are fined if you don't have insurance.

Mrs. Clinton plays into the hands of her opponents by being respectful and ingratiating to Mr. Obama one day and attacking him vehemently and unbecomingly the next.
But Mr. Obama is the bigger hypocrite by basing virtually his whole campaign on being the candidate of "CHANGE", while forwarding a health plan that does little more than put a bandaid on a health care system that is tragically deficient.

TIME: Do you think NAFTA [the North American Free Trade Agreement, signed by Bill Clinton] was the right thing to do?

CLINTON: I think NAFTA was, in principle, a good idea to try to create a better trading market between Canada and the United States and Mexico.

Enough said. I would also second the concern that a mailer could evoke such anger. Being even-keeled is critical in a president, as is consistency. Going from being "honored, truly honored" to be at the debate with Obama to "shame on you" in the space of a few days is troubling. She knew about the mailers at the debate.

Imagine that style as applied to a foreign policy.

I was schooled in Texas and hope Hillary is defeated there in the primary I would hate to think some of my former friends in the great state of Texas would want to have her as their commander in chief. ( she would need to take a pole and see what her command should be) If she wants to tell us about her 35 years of battling for the public why didn't she do that when she was in the White House with her significant other, oh that is right he had a different sifnificant other who took care of him while in there didn't he.

As far as comparing the loss of a Dallas police officer's life to hardship of those living and breathing? Those living at least have the opportunity of trying to get through. No comparison!

In order to tackle so many issues facing US, American people need the best qualified President and Command-In-Chief to lead this nation. With her integrity, her over 30-years proven records in public services, her strength, her passion and her dedication to fight for the working-class people’s good life, Hillary Clinton is the best qualified leader for the Democratic Party and our nation. Majority of Americans and I have been fully convinced that Hillary is ready to serve as US President from Day One, and she will lead our nation to move forward in the right direction.

BO supporters, you can't have both ways. Either she has 35 years of experience (and supports NAFTA), or she doesn't and is therefore as responsible for NAFTA as BO is for the war in Iraq. (i.e. they both did not have a vote). Make up your mind and show some consistency. In both cases what are they going to do to change the agreement? Lets get some specifics from both campaigns. Remember the last time that this was tried in the 1930's led to the great depression (I know gen-xr's don't read history but maybe they could google it).

Also, check out the Vanity Fair article on BO about how he ran for State Senate and Senate. For the first he keeps the incumbent off the ballot, and in the second he cuts a back room deal with the local political boss. Both sound like old politics to me

While you are attacking Hillary's heated responses, please remember from where they originate. While you are criticizing Hillary, please remember her experience and knowledge. Can a JUNIOR SENATOR who only salutes our flag on occasion with a wife who is anti American truly lead this country from the years of Bush and Cheney? I think not; I think believing in pie in the sky speeches is a dangerous way to decide your vote. It is time we put a woman in the White House to clean up the mess that Bush and Cheney have created. One that makes me sad to be an American. I want a President who loves her country and is for the people of her country. Look to Hillary's work before the White House. She has ALWAYS worked for the people! Why would you think that would change with her in the White House??

By the way, Bill Clinton had no choice but to sign NAFTA. If you look into the matter, you will see that was a political move by President Bush. He laid the ground work, he encouraged the positive vote in the House and then he left the paperwork to be signed by his Democratic predecessor. Wake up and smell the coffee! Nothing is as plain as it appears.

I am not against Obama because he is a black man. I believe he is no more qualified to be President of our great nation than Bushie is. Where is his experience? Where are concrete facts supporting his speeches? Why won't he salute our Flag AT ALL TIMES? Why did his wife write her dissertation anti America.

Please wake up and realize that Hillary is THE ONLY candidate to clean up Washington and to work for the people of this great nation.

One empty suit and one empty pantsuit.

The bickering is a very convenient way for both Obama and Clinton to avoid proposing anything concrete. No one is staying on message because there is no message. Both are stricken with Kerryitis - the desire to be president outstrips bold, challenging ideas.

We need energy independence in this country, or we will be entangled forever with nations that hate us.

How about something really interesting: a four-day work week for all nondangerous white collar jobs. Four ten hour days, generating a third day off. Think of the commuting time, gas and energy costs saved.

And imagine the unions having a fit about it, because the eight hour workday, a holdover from the days of hard manual labor, is now sacred.

We need not just inspirational feelgood rhetoric, we need someone who can challenge every 'conventional wisdom', every rule and regulation that no longer makes sense. We need ideas that work with business, not scare them into backing the same old same old
with tired ideas and a few hot button issues.

Obama is not ready to serve the U.S.

Clinton, However, is ready..She has the expirence to be President. She also has Bill behind her back..

When you vote, you have to look at whos really prepared on being the President. Not some person who keeps saying change is what we need. BOTH presidents are going to do it!!!!

There is no such thing as a perfect human and neither is Obama. He does not know everything, he has advisers and informers. Not everything coming out of his political campaign is 100% factual or in his own words.

I have followed the democratic campaign from the start.
I have watched the speeches, news and even did some of my own research online on the candidates.

Having said that, I don't Trust Hillary Clinton. She dos not talk about issues. I have not heard her mention once where she stands on the lobbyist issue.

I know she supported the war and I know she's backed by big business. Barack Obama makes it clear where he stands on all the issues.

I don't know how much of that change he can deliver but I trust him and I know he will fight for justice, fairness and equality.

This is all "hype". Fact is all "candidates" use these methods of slander to get a position and the "Hype" that goes with the position. Fact is none of them REALLY want or plan to do anything to help or direct OUR Country or US ... "The People" in the direction we need. Talk is cheap. Search and Look at ferussomnium (latin for Wild Dream). Issues are direct. You want change it can happen ... without "hype". It takes real people to make it happen. "Common" men are "Doers" and have honor. They are not afraid of getting their hands dirty either.

Again I will ask. When the vote for the War was taken, Obama was not even in the US Senate.
He was only sworn in on Jan 4th, 2005.
Would some moderator, new reporter, citizen please ask him why we should beleive that he WOULDN'T have voted for the war?? He says he was against it from the start. How do we know that?? Because he said so?? How do we know what he would have done had he been a member of the US Senate at the time??????????????????? He makes statements and expects us to beleive every word. Show me the proof.

Richard L. Andrews — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 23:29:55 GMT

It is a shame people attribute base political motives to political candidates when they express genuine human reactions to such things as the death of the Dallas police officer. It is as if once a person becomes a political candidate, they can no longer be people, with real feelings and real empathy for human hardship and tragedy. How would you expect someone to respond to an event such as that? Just because Hillary is a politician does not mean she does not feel what she expressed about the officer's death and family.

People who have commented today about the news article are guilty of what they accuse the candidates of doing, that is, engaging in negative personal attacks. If we, the voters, want the candidates to raise the level of debate, we must do the same. Shame on us all when we do otherwise.

It is a fact that Barrack Obama has limited experience in government, and I believe that limited experience manifests itself when he engages in "pie in the sky" rhetoric rather than providing specific plans and blueprints for the "change" he says we so desperately need. I agree change is needed - change from the failed policies of the Bush administration; change from the imperious attitude and actions of George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and the rest of the current administration's henchmen; change from the disregard of the Bush administration and the Republican party (including John McCain) for the needs and aspirations of the vast majority of the American people; change from a failed foreign policy that, rather than reduced the danger of terrorism, instead has increased if many times over, and driven young people in the middle east and elsewhere into the arms of al Qaeda and similar groups; change from a complete disregard for our basic civil liberties and constitutional rights in the name of "fighting terrorism" (we must remember that the cry of every totalitarian dictator, Hitler, Stalin, Mao, etc., or damagogue (McCarthy comes to mind), when they suspended or advocated suspending civil rights was that it was necessary to protect the country, or the society); change from more than 25 years of failed Republican economic policies that have eroded the purchasing power of the dollar and placed our economy at the mercy of foreign governments that now are in a position to dictate economic policy to the U.S., have widened the gap between the very rich and the rest of us, have placed the so-called "middle class" in a position where families cannot survive without two full-time wage earners, and have left the poor with not hope for the future.

However, because Barrack Obama says this must change does not mean he is the person who can make that change. John Edwards was the first among the major Democratic candidates to advocate for change to benefit the poor and the middle class; Obama has usurped that mantle. Obama says we must change the old politics of Washnington, but never tells us how. Pretty phrases, uplifting speeches, and pure rhetoric do not constitute a recipe for change.

It is too bad the people who have voted in the most recent democratic primaries and caucuses have not been more discerning about separating pure rhetoric from specific qualifications and proposals for change. Hoepefully, those who vote in Ohio and Texas will.

It's clear now that from here until the nomination is decided the mantra of Clinton supporters will boil down to (1) parsing the senator's own words on issues such as NAFTA when they are used to demonstrate her position; and (2) dredging up Michelle Obama's "pride" comment which, if looked at in an intellectually honest manner, is the type of honesty we ask of people serving the public, but condemn when we hear it. The fact is there are many of us who for long have been rightfully ashamed of the U.S., its actions abroad, and its treatment of its veterans and civilians at home. Shame on Democrats who would use the GOP tactic of attacking those who express honest and difficult emotions.

Heather, AK — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 23:32:37 GMT

Obama himself said in the debate on Thursday that their health care plans are 95% the same. The way they will create money in the budget is to go to 1) electronic records, 2) increase preventative care requirements, 3) lower costs by removing the insurance company inpossed taxes and 4) let the Bush tax loophole for families making over $250,000 a year lapse. This will generate billions and billions for the health care plan.
Both are going to increase quality and lower costs. What is the difference?
Clinton says from the start everyone must have health care and contribute to the health care fund based on what they can afford.
Obama says it will be voluntary to sign-up for coverage and if for some reason you don't and then go to the emergency room you will immediately be enrolled and then pay a fine or penalty for not signing-up.

Obama's plan should sound a little familar; its like car insurance. I am one of the millions of people that buys uninsured motorist coverage to protect myself and family against the people that do not think they need to buy auto insurance. Well I am tired of paying for these irresponsible people and Obama's plan will let these same people get away without paying into the health care plan. This also will eventually lead to a lack of funding in the budget because millions will be able to forgo paying in and that will amount to a huge short-fall.

Jared - Are you one of the people I buy uninsured motorist coverage for because you don't think you should have to pay for the privillage to drive?

Learn your facts. Both plans are on their website you really should read them before perpetuating false information.

Hillary is the best candidate.

PEOPLE!! The reality is that no politician goes into a 5 hour lecture of what and how they are going to get the country back on it's feet. The new age protocol is to learn what they stand for and how they will accomplish it, by going onto their website. No politician gets into a long and boring (albeit important) speech of the specifics of their policies. It just doesn't happen. Not on the Republicans nor on the Democrats. You want to learn, you truly need to read. Obama does have ideas on how to get it done and so does Clinton.

As for the shmuck "chris (Sent Saturday, February 23, 2008 5:22 PM) Long live George W. Bush. History will prove that he has been a good president. IF we get a democrat in the white house, then people will see just how GOOD he was."..

What a moron!!

Pres. Bush has bankrupted this country. Let me give you a brief summary. Inflation exists when your dollar is worth crap. We are not only in a recession but we are also experiencing inflation, unemployment, no healthcare, stretched out military, under-equiped military, a high percent of soldiers going AWOL, Shooting themselves (ie: Suicide), a war that makes no sense, no college loans for students, mortgage crisis, credit crunch, loss of civil liberties (ie: which our country was founded upon)..

His hands are not clean at all. If Hillary or Bill Clinton say the least thing, they are attacked. Both have given a lifetime of public service which is for the good of the country. Most blog comment responders have no sense of history nor simple human respect.

I thought I had lived lost enough I'd seen it all. If Mr. Obama, whom I regard as quite a "windbag," is elected President, it will be the beginning of the end --- not the beginning.

He is indeed a thespian, not an experienced, worthy candidate for President. His smooth style may woo voters, especially the young, to hope for change, new ideas, and more free money, but, please, get real! Lord help us! We need more than smooth talk!

How is the flyer saying that Clinton wants to force people to buy health insurance they cannot afford misleading? Last year I paid for insurance I could not use, because the premiums left me with not enough money to afford deductibles and copays. (I paid for the insurance to keep continuous coverage so I would be covered when I got a good job, which I have now.)

Sen. Clinton said she would garnish the wages of people who don't buy insurance, I assume so that she can claim 100% of Americans are covered. She doesn't understand the middle class, and she is a SLIMY campaigner.

I hope to vote for Obama for president; but if Clinton is the Democratic nominee, I will be voting Republican for the first time since 1972 ... which is also the first time ever.

You know, the 98cent special where you get two cents worth of change. End result, you still wind up with not much. Men have controlled the "Whitehouse" and if you really want change, send someone to the "Office" that will know how to clean it up.

I don't like that people are talking about jumping the democratic ship to vote for McCain IF Obama wins the democratic presidential candidate spot.

1. If your initial preferences were democratic, that means you were AGAINST the republicans.

2. If you do switch sides at the last second, you not only be hurting the democratic side, but SUPPORTING the side you once were so eager to vote against - the republicans.

Think about it. Obama AND Hillary have a lot of similarity between them. If you absolutely want Hillary to win but she doesn't, it would make A LOT more sense to vote for someone whom's ideas were at least close to Hillary's RATHER than vote for someone who is on the complete opposite end.

The real Hillary is back. The warm Hillary who used John Edwards and Bill Clinton's words at the debate is back in storage.

I was in New Hampshire when Hillary sent out a mailing which told the voters that Barack Obama was not a pro-choice candidate. It was a flat out false accusation, and one that resulted in some leading choice advocates leaving Hillary and joining Barack Obama. State delegates who had signed a petition at Hillary's request (related to the choice issue) wrote an editorial in The Union Leader shortly after the election to complain that they had been duped. They had buyers remorse. Hillary's holier than thou position at this point rings hollow.

For Hillary to get up in arms about a mailer that is indeed true, is ridiculous. She has run the most negative primary campaign in recent history. It's time to turn the page.

Had Barack Obama lost the last 12 contests, he would have been written off. It is time for Texas, Ohio, Rhode Island and Vermont to make sure that Hillary knows that it is time for her to make a graceful exit.

It's naive for people to conclude that Obama won't do well in the international affairs. By appointing the right people with right experience level to support him, for example, Bill Richardson as the Secretary of State, Sen. Obama can and will greatly maintain international relationships while protecting the American security and economic interests.

What disturbs me is the 35-year career record that Hillary is trying to highlight, and use only the ones that will (at a given moment, not all through the campaign) be beneficial to her. Other things are everyone else's fault - NAFTA was Bill's fault, Iraq War voting is Bush's fault to make her sign for it, etc. Minimal campaigning in states like WI, and earlier start in TX and OH, shows the win-at-no-cost strategy that her campaign follows.

Also, her recent strategy to quote the police officer death and wounded soldiers' reference during the last debate seems to be a LATE, but DESPERATE attempt to connect with the real people. Sen. Obama has been connecting with the real people since his campaign beginning.

Her campaign is so desperate to slow down or taint Sen. Obama's clean campaign. Am hoping that this dirty tactics, along with the wasting of millions of $$s, can stop on March 4 so that Sen. Obama can strategize the campaign to face the BIG OLD Sen. McCain.

Barack Hussein Obama has represented a much narrower segment of US citizens -- now he does talk about change for everybody, but hasn't much to back up his talk. Hillary Rodham Clinton has represented a much larger segment of US population, more diverse. Sen Obama does belong to an all-black south Chicago church with anti-white political leanings. These are truths, we can't rely on these campaign back-and-forth smears. Democrats should look more closely at BHO's background and former views before placing him in position against a longtime public figure like McCain.

Did you ever read the story about the Emperor Who Has No Clothes? Everytime I see this Obama character, I think of that story. "Much Ado About Nothing". He wouldn't finish his term as Illinois state senator, and was on TV approx. 2 years ago when he was asked whether he would ever consider running for president. He said flatly he just committed to a six year term and would first finish his term before making any other moves. WELL...we see how much you can trust this guy.

He not only wants change (which 70+ of us all want), but he wants it NOW!!!

When asked the other day, one of his political followers high up in the Party, couldn't even answer what Obama's accomplishments were. If you're backing him, it seems to me you should know what his accomplishments are.

I find Obama to be extremely arrogant, and like an adolescent who needs instant gratification. He hasn't paid his "political dues", yet he has been strutting around like he's the man for the job.

He's all about the importance of words, and yet he has to "lift" whole passages from his friend and from respected historical figures. Hillary is right. The words should be his. That's the least we can expect from him since he doesn't give specific answers to specific questions. All he says is "I basically agree with Hillary." Not so eloquent!!!

He doesn't think quickly on his feet like she does, he stutters and stammers, and then pretty much repeats her answers. The other night he even used the wrong word when he said he and Hillary have some philosophical differences. She had to correct him when she said their differences were substantive, not philosophical. He is 13 or so years younger than her, so he can't use exhaustion as an excuse.

As for health plans, he too is asking for mandated healthcare for children. He keeps saying he's against her request for a mandate. He can't even say how he would mandate for children. Would he garnishee people's wages, tax them, or what? Personally, I don't think he's thought it through. But he sure can criticize Hillary, who has been thinking it through since the 1990's.

And as for Mrs. Obama, for someone who is so educated, she sure sounded like an idiot the other day when talking about pride in her country. More ammunition for the Republicans? I noticed the other night she was nowhere to be seen at the debate. He probably told her to stay home and shut up. Notice how Bill Clinton was vilified when he said too much???

Just be careful, America, what you wish for!!! Seems to me this self-appointed emperor is wearing no clothes!

I think what's most pathetic about Hillary's meltdown is her utter hypocrisy and lies. This is the same woman that mailed out a card to voters in Wisconsin asking which of these people will Obama choose not to cover with his health care plan. It was, clearly, an attack on Obama's plan for universal health care coverage. So for Hillary to stand there... angrily asking "since when do Democrats attack each other's universal health care plans?" is just... stunning. Does she think we really don't remember her own mailings from just a couple weeks ago?

I have to admit that Obama is one smooth talker. But looking at his voting record in Ill., A man who says he was against the war from the start,but has voted for every increase in war spending since he has been in the Senate. He was asked if he would be for the war if the vote came up again. he responded "I DON'T' KNOW. He don't know? that was in 2004. In My opinion Obama is a smooth talker, granted, but I would say it's all talk with no creditability.

Obama may not have been a Senator for long however I don’t recall the current President G. Bush having any experience in the government as a Senator, Governor by way do G. Bush even have a High School Diploma G. Bush was not ready to take on the country and he has proven that fact he could not run this country as a leader G.

It's surpringly hypocritical on Hillary Clinton to show that kind of rage when questions are raised about her stance on some of her policies. When her husband was attacking Obama personally, Obama never showed that kind of frustration in public. Her mantra is that she is more tested than Barack, however that kind of showing proves otherwise. If I were her advisor, I would have warned her to come out like that. It's just a turn off for voters, especially men. Please Mrs Clinton lose with some dignity, and stop mocking yourself in public. Jeez!!!

I think people are completely missing the point of Hillary's anger. It is intended to bring the spotlight onto the canard (which admittedly Obama has successfully marketed to the public till date) that Obama's campaign is a lilly white and pure "campaign of hope" away from the "politics as usual".

What this anger essentially showcased to the American public on National TV, was that all of the "politics of hope" was a facade and that when the tread hits the road, our man Obama, is simply the same old politician, jockeying for power and if it means under-handed negative attacks on his opponent, then so be it....his hope inspiring stump speeches on national TV, working to conceal all of these underhanded tactics from the wider national public.

Why does it seem the Obama supporters are mostly waging a personal attack on Hillary and not discussing his strenghts other than empty speeches and inspiration. If you want a President with a record of fighting for and implementing change then you should vote Hillary.

Can you not read that Newsday them selves responded to Obama's false add with this, "Obama's use of the citation in this way does strike us as misleading. The quote marks make it look as if Hillary said ‘boon,’ not us. It's an example of the kind of slim reeds campaigns use to try to win an office."

Obama does use dry humor or patronizing childish sentiment to insult Hillary "silly season" excuse me he is not talking to his daughters. And he is not fooling the people that actually check the facts. He has claimed negative attacks when Hillary's campaign has very clearly been publishing facts and differences.

It is about time he has his feet held to the fire on his misleading circular speak, lack of record and dismissive attitude towards a highly educated adn accomplished woman.

I will say that I admire both Democratic candidates. As a 20 year business owner I think I can read a prospective employee. When they tell me they are experienced, I give them an assignment. I will know within 10 minutes if they are indeed qualified. If another comes to me and says they have deep knowledge, I will give them the same opportunity. If they both equally pass the assignment, I will, given my years of experiance, usually choose the one with the experience. If I have drastic medical needs, do I choose a doctor with 2 to 4 years experience? Or one with a more experienced background of say 10 to 15 years of a proven track record? They both may be qualified, but my choice is with more experience. This not to say that Mr. Obama is not entirely disqualified, I acually think he would be a good President and if he is the nominee he will get my endorsment. Why? Not because of his experience, but because we cannot afford another Republican in the White House. He is to be admired, but I would rather have a more qualified, and experienced, if you will, candidate and I think that is Hillary Clinton. It's sad to see some of the dispariging and sophmoric remarks made here. This is serious business.
A lot has been said of race and gender, and sadly it is still a big issue. If Mr. Obama wins over Mrs. Clinton then sadly, no matter how much effot put forward by a woman or women...it seems a man will always trump a woman, or women, regardless of conditions.

Emund B. Millar III - To be quite honest 20 debates so far has been plenty!...

Secondly Hillary has supported NAFTA, and she is now trying to find a way to dodge questions about it, or make it seem like she didn't.

The mailers that were sent out, were in fact all FACTS...and the final debate I hope Barack nails her for them.

That being said, Barack knows how to unite the democrats, however Hillary is hell bent on trying to Divide us, as she knows she has lost...she had to win by a 70 - 30 in Texas and Ohio, just to have a chance...and that simply is not going to happen.

So seeing this, her only chance is to try and divide us Democrats, so that if SHE DOES NOT GET THE NOMINATION, THEN NO DEMOCRAT WILL...

That is how she reacts to losing, and someone like this is not someone I want in the White house!!

Obama is as experienced as G.W. Bush was when he ran for president. Obama is using some of the Rove/Bush tactics in this election. And sadly the same foolish people are buying into it. They may well be Democrats rather than Republicans, but they're equally as foolish. We'll have yet another inexperienced, unprepared and semi competent president if he's elected. Obama, time after time, voted "present" rather than yes or no in the Illinois senate rather than take a stand. He makes excuses for this but obviously he was preparing for his run for the US Senate and didn't want any "blemish" on his voting record. We need a president who is not afraid to take an unpopular position and that is not Obama. Hillary Clinton has proven, time after time, that she has the fortitude, the honesty and the ability. A vote for Obama is a vote for continued incompetence.

I feel like I am probably the only 'liberal' that is amused, preplexed and concerned about this Obama hysteria. I'm taking a lot of crap for it, but I just can't buy it. Pure power-trip I tell you :-)

Bill Clinton, as a president was great. I'm not too crazy about Hillary, but I was really huge on Obama until his loan-shark tactics of obtaining votes and saying different things to different people are making it obvious to me, that he is part of the machine he claims to repair.

I could not wait to become a US citizen so I could vote, but since the 2006 midterm election, my passion has gradually turned into disillusionment. I feel like I the 'mistake of 2000'(I say mistake, because Bushie was handed that presidency) is going to be replicated. Jesus Christ man! What happened to our brains? Conservatives and republicans aside, I can't possibly be the only one that's alarmed by this. Cmon...

Besides a couple of issues, I consider myself a 'liberal', but I simply do not believe a damn thing Obama says no matter how he delivers it. Also, as much as I admire Hilary, I think she is just not cut out for the presidency.

I never in my wildest dreams thought I'd vote republican, but the best candidate for me is a republican; Ron Paul. Ya, that's a sad state of affairs man... Paul has no chance in hell, but I'd rather vote my conscience than be part of this American-Idol meets a Roman mob hysteria.

Why does this entire discussion of attack politics remind me of the scene in PRIMARY COLORS where the staff is attempting to convince Gov. Stanton(Clinton) to "go negative" in response to negative publicity he has been garnering - and Gov. Stanton (Clinton)'s steadfast refusal to go there because the voting and thinking public really does not want to hear the nit-picking and mudslinging? I don't have a problem with a candidate calling another candidate on misrepresentation - when it comes to the candidate's record or previously voiced opinion. I also recognize that times and circumstances sometimes dictate that positions change with new information. Seems to me an EFFECTIVE tool in the debate process would be a civil exploration of the basis of a position and why the change occurred. For example, Hillary voted to authorize the military action in Iraq. She was a Senator, representing the position of the people of NY - who had suffered a terrible loss at the hands of terrorists that we as a country were misled into believing had ties and support in Iraq. Reasonable explanation to me. It is also reasonable and, in my mind, honorable, for Hillary to have voted as she did BECAUSE that is what her constituents wanted her to do - which is what this is really all about. We want a leader who is responsive to the positions of the majority of those in this country who elect him or her. (Boy, that was GREAT typing that - him or her.)
I remember a story told about Ann Richards when she met with the teachers in Texas about the low pay problems...a bunch of teachers came in and just complained and belly-ached - she reminded the audience that she had heard it before - wh didn't want complaints - she wanted solutions.
That is what the American people as a collective is asking for- solutions. Tell me WHAT you want to do and HOW you propose to do it. That is what I want to hear. Stop this nonsense. Everyone was doing a GREAT job at educating me as a voter until the last three weeks or so. Let's hope that the candidates can get back on track soon. This has the potential to be one of the best elections in terms of quality information availability from ALL of the candidates - PLEASE STOP THE SNIPING!

I think everyone is getting way to worked up about the fighting betweeen candidates. This happens every election year. What we need to look at is their records and their experience. Also, we need to get past the media hype that surrounds the politcal circus. I pay very little attention to "who said what about who". Look at their history, thier achievements, and, yes, their failures. If they did make mistakes, did they learn from it and move on? What is their agenda? I have been doing a lot of research on both Hilary and Obama. Hilary has the wisdom to handle the job in so many more areas than Obama. It bothers me that I listen to him talk, but he never really says anything concrete. Everywhere else in our lives we hire people with the most experience. I am sticking with Hilary. I do think that Obama has a future, just not yet. I think he should wait until, say, 2016. I am afraid that if Obama becomes president, we will be no better off than we are now which is the worst off I have ever been economically in my entire life. Now is not the time for "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington".

I have heard more lies told during this campaign by Hillary Clinton. I hope the lie about how Obama leaves out 15 million Americans in his health care plan has run out. How many times does he have to explain that outright lie? She is a desperate loose cannon. I hope that the Americans who are supporting her don't know about how the Clintons sold us out to China during Bill's administration. Now China is building up their military and partnering with Russia AGAINST US with all our military technology including knowledge of where all our missle sites are thanks to the Clintons. I think the Clintons did enough damage to America during Bill's administration and I certainly don't want to see them back in the White House.

I am 64 years old, and I have seen presidential elections going back to 1951. I remember wearing an "I like Ike" button to school. I can also remember Truman explaining to Gen. McArthur that he [McArthur] may think he was God, but I am the President of the United States! Looking back you have got to love Truman.
My point is that you must remember history...or research it...to find out who did what and the positions that were taken on the issues...and the qualities of the persons who were great presidents. If we all do our jobs as citizens and find out the truth, and gain a suffient amount of sophistication to discern what is relevant, before we vote, we will have better leaders. That is the only way to avoid being taken in by dirty tricks, plausible deniablilty and fear mongering.
The facts go against Hillary in her latest accusations and I am sorry to say I am not impressed with her campaign. While she is crying "foul" she is NOT the victim here. During the 1992 campaign Bill Clinton stole the meat and potatoes issues from the Republican platform. NAFTA was one of those issues. In the election debates he championed NAFTA, as did Bush "41." This prompted the famous line from H. Ross Perot, who opposed NAFTA, when he told the American public "...that giant sucking sound you will hear will be American jobs going south to Mexico..." As one of his first acts as president, Bill Clinton made NAFTA a priority, pushed it through congress in 1993 and happily signed it into law. While I do not expect the First Lady to take a stand on an issue contrary to her husband's when he is the sitting president, she can and should express a contrary view, if she has one, as a sitting senator. To my knowledge, she has not and Senator Obama is well within his right to point this out to the American people. For her to deny Bill Clinton's pro-NAFTA stance, and her own, and to blame it all on Bush "41" is disingenuous. If she had a contrary view, she should have hammered it home in this election campaign rather than taking cheap shots at her opponents.
As for her healthcare plan, I would not want to be "required" to participate, and have my pockets picked, until I know what I am getting. Right now I am one of the fortunate people who has a good plan that serves me well. Am I being counted as one of the 15 million who would not becovered by Obama's plan? If so, it is an unfair depiction.
As I see it, at this juncture, Hillary is trying to escape responsibility for previous positions that have proven to be unwise. How do you sell your past position (or silence) on NAFTA in the "Rust Belt" or to the deserted factory towns across America? How do you explain that you did not foresee what H. Ross Perot clearly spelled out? It appears to me that all Hillary has to offer is empty outrage!

M. Rund, Las Vegas, NV — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 23:48:35 GMT

It seems to me that whenever the Obama camp says or "misleads" people against Sen. Clinton's policies, she is always deemed the bad guy for defending herself. If she raises questions about Obama's policies or "flip-flopping", then she is being called the negative campaigner. What about him? The media and his followers seem to think he is perfect. Is it because his speeches sound like sermons?

Senator Clinton is not perfect by any means, but I do believe she has a love for America and has the intelligence and seasoning it will take to move our country forward. Her policies can be a reality. She has said she would change NAFTA, and no, she did not vote on it because she was not a senator at the time. Her husband signed the NAFTA bill after it was passed by the Rebuplican congress and the bill was sent to his desk. At the time, a lot of people were for NAFTA and I don't think anyone knew of the huge impact it would have. It's kind of stupid to blame Hillary for NAFTA.

In the beginning, I liked both candidates, but after watching Obama change his rhetoric to match the crowd, I soured on him. The liberals would have loved his anti-gun control speech in Idaho! He's all politician, probably because he is from the cut-throat political process of Chicago, land of corruption. I also, along with Whoopi Goldberg, saw that he has taken Hillary's ideas and made them his own. That is why their policies are so similar. I find Obama to be a "say and promise anything" kind of candidate. There is no way our country could afford all of the things he has promised without huge tax increases. If people truely believe what he says, then they need a reality check. His promise to change Washington and bring unity to America sounds an awful lot like the promise George W. Bush made to get elected.

I find Obama to be a scarey candidate and hope he is not the Democrat nominee. If he is, then I will definitely take another look at moderate John McCain.

Come to your senses America! Vote Hillary '08!

Hillary Clinton has never really supported NAFTA. For Obama's camp to claim that she has is just cheap, dirty politics. Why doesn't Obama highlight some of the achievements of the Clinton administration?

* The economy grew for 116 consecutive months, the most in history
* Overall unemployment dropped to the lowest level in more than 30 years
* Unemployment for African Americans fell from 14.2 percent in 1992 to 7.3 percent in 2000, the lowest rate on record
* Unemployment for Hispanics fell from 11.8 percent in October 1992 to 5.0 percent in 2000
* Clinton worked with the Republican-led Congress to enact welfare reform.
* The largest six-year drop in poverty in nearly 30 years

The Clintons have a PROVEN record of making life better (with and without support from the Republican party) for American workers. Hillary has PROVEN she can improve healthcare, she was the major force behind the State Children's Health Insurance Program.

Obama and his supporters can only HOPE to achieve this kind of success. If Obama hopes to change how politics works in Washington, maybe he should start by changing the junk his own team is sending out in the mail.

"Ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country." They are just words to the Obamas who are actually the ones saying anything to get him elected.

The problem with Hillary's position all along is standing taking sides with the good accomplishments of her husband's administration. But you have to take his good and his bad. NAFTA is bad for America and she cannot run away from it. She needs to embrace it too. I feel strongly that Hillary will offer us the same old Washington stuff. That's the experience she is talking about. Look, if she ran her campaign into red what does that tell us about getting this country out of red. She could not under Bill's administration get the healthcare to pass. She voted for the war that has devasted our families and nation. WE need a change. Insanity is said to be doing the same thing over and over and expecing a different result.US of A knows better we cannot be fooled.

I am so tired of people blaming the Clinton's for the mess this country is in. Hilliary has been working for the rights of Americans, since college. Look up the speeches and the term papers that she did in college. She happened to marry Bill and he did a great job for the country, not his personal life, but lets think about what could have happened to this country if Hilliary had divorced him on the spot. I don't think it would have been really could for our country. I think she kept things together mainly for her daughter and some of it for the way it would have played out all over the world in the papers and the media. She's not perfect, but Oboma is certainly not. He is a Muslin and has never denied that he is. Operha has supported him from the start and she does not believe in the Holy Bible. She actually says this in her new book. I believe that Hilliary is the best person for President, because we all know how she handled the pressure of the entire world knowing that Bill had betrayed her trust and and tried to destroy his marriage.Chelsa has proven to be the kind of daughter that we all would be proud to have. I can't say the same for the Bush daughters. Ask Oboma to say the blessing at your next dinner and see what he does. Mitt Romney was belittled for being a Mormon, but he is the kind of person that would make a great President. Lets clean up our world with a bit more intellence that just voting for someone that gives a good talk of how his Daddy left him when was was three yrs old. Look up his family history for real.

Obama is only one, the two Clinton more than make up for the Senator from Illinois in their nasty, uncalled for, unpopular stands and to think that now after this flyer has been around for some days now, that she should get all out of joint is ludicrous.

Jeff — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 23:50:43 GMT

As I understand it, much of Hillary's claim of experience comes from being First Lady. Yet, when it comes to the failed policies of her husband's administration, such as NAFTA, she distances herself from any involvement. And she ignores how poorly her health care initiative as First Lady went - even though as First Lady, she hadn't been elected to legislate on any level.

When it comes to her current health care plan, not the one that failed more than a decade ago, she states that it will be mandated, and that wages will be garnished to support it for those who don't pay. Sen. Obama's plan is universally available, without any penalties, and yet, when he points to the fact that her plan involves a penalty, he is labeled as misrepresenting her plan, and she stops slightly short of challenging him to a duel.

Meanwhile, after Hillary's campaign talked about how Democrats shouldn't resort to comparing other Democrats to Bush or members of his administration, she does just that today with her Karl Rove rhetoric.

Or perhaps she didn't think we would notice when she blasted Sen. Obama for plagiarizing, when his comments came from Gov. Deval Patrick, a national co-chair, and then in the same debate she proceeds to steal the rhetoric of John Edwards, who isn't involved in her campaign and hasn't endorsed anyone yet.

Her hypocrisy is on a different level from most politicians. It is obvious she thinks the American people are so stupid that she can say anything she wants to them, and they'll believe it just because she said it.

You claim Obama to be a hypocrite for his campaign's mailers. You assert that they are misstatements (which you define as a lie to mislead people). You claim this to be "old politics" as it is not change, as you so clearly stated in your all-caps flame section of your response. Only, interestingly, you very shortly afterwards attack Obama's wife (aren't we voting based on, you know... the candidates? Guess you're not). And how do you chose to attack her? Oh, that's right, by giving a misstatement about what she really said. The same type of misleading information you claim Barack uses, and ridiculed him for. Looks like I called you on it.

but here's the thing that gets me: i am very scared by hillary's attack today. depending on how this is reported, this could really damage barack obama's campaign. however, i must say, she did a great job showing anger, i do have to wonder if it was an act. listen/read before you attack: these mailers have been out several days, she accuses barack obama of twisting her words, well, she twists his. these fliers are an exact replica of what he says in debates, so why hasn't she attacked him for it in the last 19 debates? however, her flyers in new hampshire skewed his voting record about abortion, and you haven't seen barack yelling his lungs out, have you?

What more do people need than Newsday's own retraction that Senator Clinton did NOT say NAFTA was a "boon" to the economy -- that THEY said it; that Senator Clinton wasn't even in the Senate when it was put to the vote, and that she has been critical of it ever since she has been in office; that she did NOT compare Bush to Obama, but that "change for change's sake is not always good." As Jon Stewart ironically pointed out on Larry King's show, Obama can't cure your leprosy, and is not above bona fide political criticism from Senator Clinton, even though he has been cockily assured that the media won't question him and has been given safe passage all along.

Oh, and let's not forget that his "I have always opposed the War in Iraq" when he was not even in the Senate when it was initially voted on because of erroneous and misleading Intelligence information later said that if he HAD been able to vote would have probably supported the invasion given the same erroneous information. Let's also not forget his 130 'present' (neither yay or nay) votes on issues of importance in his 4 years as Representative for the State of Illinois which BOTH Clinton and Edwards called him on in debate, and for which he had no easy, hope-filled answer. Senator Clinton is neither a witch or a "cry-baby" but an advocate for the American people since the early 90's who is playing the political game fairly -- unlike Obama who had the gall to interrupt her speech to give a 25" unscheduled speech which all three cable networks chose to preempt her for. Maybe, as Senator Obama smarmily said in debate she "is likable enough" or maybe she isn't; choose to vote for her or her opponent based on substantive issues rather than excoriating her campaign for correcting errors in Senator Obama's fliers -- puulease.

I'm more disapointed in the american people. Most of them don't do their homework before they vote. I don't claim to be dem or rep. I try to vote for the best that will help our country. The first president I voted for was Ronald Reagan. I also voted for Bush's dad and Bush the first time. After the present bush's first term it was time for him to go. Amazingly the American people voted for him again because of all the promises, "can't change a commander and chief in the middle of the war" like we are getting ready to do, etc" and the American people voted for him. The same American people that voted for him, put him 6 months later to be voted the worst opproval rated president in american history. This is almost funny. I'm retired military have great health care a retirement, kids are grown. I have no dog in this fight. I'm t r y i n g to look out for the american people and our country. Here they go again voting for Obama and all of his promises. Instead of someone who already has been in the senate and in the white house for 8 years. I actually thought they were smarter than this in the beginning. YOU PEOPLE NEED TO GET A GRIP. Go ahead, vote for him I hope you are right!! I don't think we can afford to take a chance. I think the American people vote for all of the wrong reasons. They better start thinking about their country, and their kids they are putting in his hands. By the way, yes I had a son who served in Iraq. I think 911 will be a walk in the park compared to the next attack we have on America. Hope Obama rises to the occassion like he has risen in the poles. This is a contest for America, not a football game you are betting on with your buddy.

I guess the Clinton campaign feels that the positive approach taken in Thursday's debate didn't work, so now they've switched back to attack-mode. Ironically, this negative campaigning is exactly the type of destructive, Rovian tactic she's claiming to oppose. Too bad, because at the debate Hillary was paving the way toward a graceful exit-- one that would allow her the chance to run again, or have another leadership role with the party (Senate Majority Leader perhaps?). Instead, it's clear that she'd rather go down in flames and tear apart the Democratic party in the process. I used to be a strong supporter of the Clintons, but have been horribly disappointed by the way they've conducted themselves in this campaign.

She has benefited from her country's educational system and its equal opportunity employment practices to become a highly paid lawyer. I wonder why she feels her glass is half empty, not half full? His choice of marriage partner is one of the few things we can look at to find out his real views, as campaign rhetoric is not revealing of a person's true character. Michelle seems to be all about her own race, all about criticizing Hillary because she has a husband who philanders, while being smug about her own. She hates our country, I only wonder why she wants to be married to its leader. And I wonder why he would want so much power so early in his career. Both are NOT ready!

Will the real Hillary please stand up. I am so tired of everyone saying that the real Hillary is not what we, as Americans, see every day; that the real Hillary is what we saw with the tears and in "the moment". Unfortunately, I think the real Hillary is what we see as the scolding school teacher in "Shame on You" and in her low debate moment when she used poor judgment and repeated her scripted phrase about "change we can Xerox". Those moments more truthfully characterize who she is. I believe almost everything else is scripted, staged and played out before her advisors, including what I believe to be her false tears. I got a big chuckle when, after watching her "moment", I saw the video of Bill Clinton and John Edwards from whom she copied almost the exact lines for which she has received so much attention. It would have been okay had she not spent a large part of the week criticizing Obama for lifting two lines a friend's speech. There is nothing authentic about Hillary-- except perhaps her anger and her desperation. Shame on you Hillary.

This does show that Obama is using Republican tactics. And he's using tactics, not honest campaigning. This is also like the Democrats are a pop culture of support as a fad and not knowing all of the facts and consequences. Based on what people had said about me or think at work and hearing others in meetings, at the Democratic debates I've seen with several candidates he sounds like no more than a GS9 employee in the government. That's not a joke.
Either Hillary or Edwards are the best choices of all of the candidates. I would like to see some type of "years in politics" requirement that is equivalent to the minimum age requirement to become president. It is a top office and some experience and equivalent training should be necessary. Bill Clinton probably seemed slick because he was apparently interested since before he got to high school, and was able to study well enough to be a 'Rhodes Scholar'. That's already quite an accomplishment.
Anybody can become President, however they have to work hard at it for a while just like any other profession. There's a lot more involved than heading an internet sight while those guys could already have had 10 years of experience.

I have been watching the debates between Mr Obama and Ms Cinton's campaigns their public speeches. I have watched them since the begining and as of recent, I waatched the debate at U>T> campus in Austin, Texas.
What I saw and many others as well, was a desparete woman showing her ugly side, trying to get control of it with that sarcastic smile.
Mr Obama clearly said that he hopes the negativity would go away so that he and Ms. Cliton and the voters could concentrate on the important matters at hand. I believe Ms. Clinton mentioned something along the lines of stopping this very imature way of acting. But here she is in Cincinnati blaming others.

I have been following him for a year, reading his policies and his stance in the issues. I have a masters degree and his followers are constantly classified by exit polls as having higher educations than Clinton supporters.

Hillary Clinton has been a punching bag for the press since day one. She never gets a compliment from them unless its a back hand one.

She's called "shrill" by the media. Ever see a male running for office called that? I donlt know why many women arent outraged over the obvious chauvanism with which shes always greeted.

She is not her husband, nor is she guilty of his mistakes or deserves all this nonsense she gets.

Obama on the other hand get a free ride, from everyone. They dare not even question him.

Perfect example? In philly Hillary is asked a difficult question about NY immigrant I.D's. She can't give only a yes or a no, it's too complicated and the press blasts her as being divisive, tricky etc. etc.

Two weeks later, next debate, Obama is asked the same question. Can't answer it. And the press showers him with praise, how he's "professorial" and "considerate" in his answers... nonsense.

The press is choosing our candidate, with their biased mumbling asides and constant critique of Mrs. Clinton. They are too frightened to say anything about Obama so that leaves her as their major target... and they beat it to death. Ya, the same US press that was asleep at the wheel from 2000 - 2006.

Hillary to be fair, has earned her right to be where she is and attempt what she's trying to do. She has been fighting for us for years. She's paid in blood and pain from all the slime machines. She has the political capital to get done what's needed in Washington while Obama will be compromised away learning the job. Instead of giving her a fair chance, it's all one sided, the men smile slyly while attacking her and we all know women are their own worst enemies.

The only hope for Obama is if the Democrats dominate both houses of Congress or he will be checked. we've all seen this before.

They're right about one thing; we do desperately need change... but I fear all we'll get is more rhetoric.

Shame is right.

NAFTA has been wonderful for everyone but us. Free trade agreements are all wonderful for everyone but us. The Federal Government is using these for bargaining chips while stealing money from the American people through the IRS instead of maintaining proper tarifs on trade goods to support itself. Billions of dollars of revenue are lost annually in tarifs just so we can molify some foreign group or make it easier for our own companies to outsource our jobs. Both candidates say the want to "fix" NAFTA, but it is just this sort of thinking that we should avoid - it's a soap box car to begin with, what's the point of adding duct tape and bailing wire?

What we just saw on TV today is truly amazing--and totally unbecoming of a Presidential candidate! A raging bull is not what anyone in America would want to see in the Oval Office! Before that we have gotten used to Hillary tearing up, another melodrama. On several occasions, the Clintons have unleashed unfair negative ads against Barack Obama. Sometimes they were abusive and disrespectful in their words and ads. But Obama never showed any public anger. Not once! Funny too Hillary says to Obama, "lets have a debate." What does she think they have been having all these past months—an expensive picnic—all expenses paid by reputable news organizations. Frankly, I think Hillary is not only tired, frustrated, and uncontrollable, but irretrievably mired into the old type of politics—the very thing she accuses Obama about. She is the one pulling things from her black book, just as Carl Rove does routinely. As she sees her hopes become dismal, she would do anything as a last stand! She doesn't mind destroying the Democratic Part if she is not the nominee. It is all about the Clintons. And what we saw today is manufactured rage as a prelude to vicious negative attacks from the Clinton Team against Sen. Obama.

She just not the right woman to be a president. This crying and whinning proves it. We want a strong woman if one were to be elected.
Obama on the other hand is genuine. He may be green behind the ears, but he will be a good president. Hillary mentioned once that Obama will need on the job training in the presidency. Don't they all when they first step into that position?
She would make a much better impression if she would just step aside and get over it.

Joe, Thornton, CO — Sun, 24 Feb 2008 00:00:37 GMT

None of this matters, including what most of you are posting as "comments". All politicians send out mailers that trash their competition. Half of what is said (including the TV ads) is either false, taken out of context, or partially assumed. So yea, she over reacted. But she is trying to win still despite overwhelming odds, and I would think that would be a good thing. Obama needs to be called out from time to time, because all he talks about is "change". What he never defines is what that change is that we should care. For those of you that dont look into facts, he has almost the same stance as her on just about everything that matters (i.e environment, Iraq). Look at election.msn.com/podium08.aspx. John Edwards was pretty close to the same as well. All it comes down to now is a popularity contest to see who we want to do these things. And the only reason why that matters, is because whoever rides that final popularity wave to the nomination will carry momentum to hit Mcain with. Frankly either of them would make a good president, but unless they can show that they (and essentially most democrats) are about moving forward in a positive way from our current situation then it's all for nothing. Mcain will beat either of them if they arent carefull- not because he'd be a good president either- just like Bush was re-elected over Kerry. If the democrats look like a joke, there's only the one alternative- even if he's in no way going to be good at the job (or smarter than my 7 year old cousin). While Mcain is a better choice than Bush, that isn't saying a whole lot. If the Dems don't focus on highlighting this, either of them stands a chance.

If that means that you have to say one thing to this group and the opposite to the next, in a subtle manner, of course, all while ripping apart not only the other party but your own party members who, in general, have the same basic views as themselves, you do it. Clinton was playing nice in the sandbox until she realized that her campaign was dead. Now she's trying to fight back in any way she can. The problem is that the public isn't buying it.

We must all agree, that although Obama may some day make a great president there are short comings at this point. I don't beleive they are by any fault of his own, they are due to lack of experience. Need I remind people about the knowledge of the current president, granted Obama has far more character and credibility. But what if he does not surround himself with people of the same mindset. Let us hope that at this point we do not end up with an Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson as part of an administration. I say let Hillary give it a shot, the guys have been getting it wrong for way too long now, let a woman give it a go. I believe she would surprise even the most skeptical people. So to end I say we should encourage Obama to support a Clinton administration as her Vice President, get some more experience, they will both have successful presidencies, Republicans would not stand a chance for at least twelve years.

She's just a spoiled spoon fed hack throwing a temper tantrum just like when she had all those workers fired in the White House travel office. Mark me down as another independent for Oboma.

Senator Clinton sounded angry and desperate in that news conference, while 30,000 Texans went to hear Senator Obama's message of change. This latest strategy is too little too late. Let's not even talk about the malicious e-mail that was sent out by her own staff. She sounded so petty and bitter, and I got my laugh in for the day.

She can dish it, but she can't take it.

For at least a month, Clinton has been telling people that Obama's Health care plan lives out 15 Million Americans. Clearly a "spin" which means "not quite wrong, but not quite right"

She is a master at old-school politics. It's a simple 9 step execution:

Step 1: Cry foul...
Step 2: Come across angry...
Step 3: Claim despicable...
Step 4: Claim enough is enough...
Step 5: Assert the devil himself would not have...
Step 6: Pronounce shame on you...
Step 7: Suggest "not one of us"...
Step 8: You have been asking for it...
Step 9: Go Nuclear. (You are justified)

Works every time... My cousin uses it to his wife every time she says "I know you were with your friends last night honey, but why do you smell like that.."

Brilliant... Oh it was nice how she dropped Edwards in.. That's a smooth spend... I'll tell my cousin to add step 6.5, "Your mother always said you were..." This adds the extra edge of making it seem like it's not just him.

Go Clinton, you need to bottle this stuff.

QUESTION FOR SENATOR CLINTON:
So is this how you plan deal with other elected officials, republicans, and world leaders?

All your experience have taught you how to mis-manage, go broke, cheat, blame, blame, blame... then puppy-dog. She is a natural..

PS
Clinton appears to be a little bi-polar if you ask me. She switches moods like no one I've every seen.

How can Senator Clinton be so nice during tha lst debate and so aggressive two days later? She can disagree with Senator Obama. He never called her names after she said over and over that his healthcare plan is leaving 15 Million Americans uninsured. She did not go into the details of his plan. What is so different here? While Senator Clinton truly softened me - again - after the last debate, she really irritated me today - again. The problem with Senator Clinton is, that one never knows which one will show up next. Senator Obama is not all about speaches. He has as many very substantive programs and well thought-out positions on the issues as Senator Clinton does. And with all her experience, what has she actually accomplished in practical terms?
I am not aware of any signature legislation of hers in the Senate. People should vote for someone who is temperamentally suited to be the next President, not for someone that is as unpredictable and, yes, devisive as Senator Clinton.

I agree that the performances of former president Bill Clinton only served to set in renewed "Clinton fatigue" But what the story does not address is the vast waste of money Mrs. Clinton has spent in her campaign. $100,000 for sandwiches from a deli? If I were a supporter of Clinton I would be extremely angry at this misuse of campaign funds.
Sen. Barack Obama has captured the imagination of this country because he stands for everything she doesn;t. While she is cynical, he is inspiring. I have donated to his campaign and will work to have elected in November. The sooner Hillary realizes that it's over, the sooner we can get on with the real work of defeating McCain in November. Her campaign fell apart because of high priced consultants, hubris and ego.

Men can rarely mutli-task ( or at least very few ). Lets see a man raise several childre, take care of the house, hold down a job, go to college, and still have time to manage the household finances.

Michelle Obama’s 1985 Princeton University senior-year thesis — which had been under wraps by the school until after the general election — has been uncovered.

In it, Obama wrote she did not believe she could ever be fully integrated into white society as a black woman, and she sometimes only felt like a “visitor” at the Ivy League school, rather than an accepted student.

The thesis was obtained by Politico.com.

“I have found that at Princeton, no matter how liberal and open-minded some of my white professors and classmates try to be toward me, I sometimes feel like a visitor on campus; as if I really don’t belong. Regardless of the circumstances under which I interact with whites at Princeton, it often seems as if, to them, I will always be black first and a student second,” Obama wrote at the time under her maiden name, Michelle LaVaughn Robinson.

She also wrote that going to Princeton likely would lead to her “further integration and/or assimilation into a white cultural and social structure that will only allow me to remain on the periphery of society; never becoming a full participant.

Obama says he is change but his voting record says otherwise (#1 Liberal Dem).You either have the same old Reps or the same old Dems. A change would be someone who has actually made the effort to do the people's business by actually working together. He says that he will be the one to reach across the aisle...but his voting record says otherwise. When asked this past year about the differences between he and Hillary he didn't think they had any...when the race tightened a little he brought up the vote on the war and said he would have said no but then said he didn't have all the intelligience reports in front of him like she did when she made her decision. When the race became neck & neck he doesn't bring up the part about the intelligience reports anymore just that she made a poor decision. They seem to have a close voting record, he is a good speaker...she has more experience both national & international and one of them will be battleing it out with McCain. If you want a President with a record of reaching across the aisle then McCain beats them all hands down. The Republican Party stays upset with him half the time and he doesn't care.

How many more personalities of Hillary will we have to witness before she finally admits her loss and walks away with the tiny amount of dignity she may (or may not) have left? This week alone we witnessed "Compassionate Hillary" who had trouble deciding during the debate whether she wanted to belittle Barack's health care plan or whether she was proud to be sharing a stage with and seated next to him -- never mind that "whatever happens, we'll be fine" comment which she 'xeroxed' from John Edwards. Yesterday we watched her pass an accident in Dallas and continue to hold her rally, rather than stopping as any decent human being would do, using the excuse that if she had stopped, it would have precluded the ambulance from being able to arrive at the scene (doubtful since they close highways for only the candidate's traffic so there were no other vehicles in the line of traffic). Following her Dallas rally, she learned that the accident she drove right past was fatal and that the officer who lost his life in the line of duty was working to protect her, so she then went to Fort Worth and addressed the audience saying a rally wouldn't be appropriate. That's our "Compassionate Hillary" at her best. We've seen "Intelligent Hillary" try to address a crowd using her best low-speaking voice. And yet today we witness "Tyrant Hillary" who seems to have traveled half way around the country, forgotten all about yesterday's tragedy (other than to use it for her own political gain) and had a meltdown right before our eyes ranting and and saying "enough speeches and big rallies." Could this silly statement be evidence of her complete lack of control due to the fact that in Texas alone everywhere Barack went, 20,000+ supporters showed up (and yes, outside events included) vs. Hillary's crowds of much less than 1,000? One has to wonder, if 20,000+ were showing up to hear her speak, would it no longer be necessary in her opinion? Her ever-changing personalities leave us no choice but to ask, "Will the real Hillary Clinton please stand up? or better yet, go away?" Listening to the "Many Faces of Hillary" as President would not be fathomable, much less tolerable; and how will we know who will show up on any given day? Shame on YOU, Hillary: You started the type of election shenanigans that you so nonsensically claim Barack is guilty of when you incorrectly said during the live debate that his health care program omits 15 million people (yet in the next breath all teary eyed you tell us how proud you are to be sharing a stage with him) and yet when called out on your own policies (or lack thereof), the best you can do is yell about big rallies, say, "let's debate" when you already have a debate scheduled three days from now and yell, "Shame on you." Your multiple personality disorder is disconcerting to say the least and we're not sure which one would show up on Day 1, and would all of them really be ready? Would we? I think not. Shame On You's, Hillary!

He was going to bring change to Sacramento by banging the heads of girly-men. Neither has accomplished what they were starting out to do.

Do we want more of the same? I think not. We need a no-nonsense president who knows what can be done, how to do it, and when to back off until the time is ripe. We need a president who will teach the people what aught to be done and why BEFORE doing it.

bringing the unfortunate circumstance of the police officer who was killed in the Texas motorcade and speaking of his family as to the predicament the family is left in is not very accurate. The officer died in the line of duty. His family will receive a full pension as if he worked until retirement from the city. They will also receive his social security plus the maximum for all children until they are 18 years of age. The family will receive the officers life insurance which should be double because of accidental death on active duty. While the circumstance is difficult at best, Hilary is making more of it than is. Generally speaking women always make more of something than is the reality of a circumstance

Then should we allow our person with as much realy experience in government as your next door neighbor who happens to be a good speaker? Especially, if their wife and pastor (those who really influence our way of thinking)are not fans of the US.

Leaving us with a individual on the other side who likes to sit in the middle and goes where the wind blows. I understand that he is a war hero...and is experienced in the Senate. But, were is that strong wise leader with an even temper that really has the concern for the US citizens.

Who ever get the job, I hope that they take a good look at the past. We won WWII because we were a manufactoring giant and out produced Germany and Japan.

Senator Obama gave the same portrait of himself at the debate he does in his speeches. When he get's caught mailing false information to the voters all of you get mor upset than she does. Mathew in Houston needs to go back the PK and grow up. If Hillary used the "B" that mother that is so concerned would be crying that her children have been harmed. Makes you wonder what those children hear at home. If the Obama family are given the influences Mrs. Obama expresses well seems like if you are not black you do not count. Maybe Obama does not want everyone to pay their own way for health care is because many of the white middle class are already paying for those who think their ansestors entitle them to have everthing given to them. That is what happens everytime they go to the emergency rooms for routine doctor visit. I had to what 12hrs. in the emergency last January when I had a heart attack because it was so full of welfare cases. My husband have each worked two jobs to insure and educate our children.

Reaganomics has proven to be a failure, the only thing that trickles down is when i don't shake well enough when i wear boxers. Bill kept that going and put in steroids when he was in. She can't control her anger, just like McCain and just like W, we will get more of the same. Does Obama have flaws? Of course, but the American people are speaking out and they are tired of certain families consolidating power. Hillary thought she was going to walk away with the nomination and at the very least casts the attitude of a spoiled child not getting her way.

He is an excellent orator and is highly charismatic. But, my guess is that the GOP machine will shred him in the Fall. Hillary knows that better than anyone, and is in a much better position to anticipate GOP tactics and manage the "handlers." McCain is an established hot-head with a penchant for obsenity and lack of respect, even to his fellow Republicans. Do we really want this guy's finger anywhere NEAR "the button?" Wake the hell up, people. Democrats, unite !

I read the first read to try to come to some conclusion about these claims. I believe that Hillary said it best when she said she would have no probelm taking from peoples wages if they didn't purchase the health care plan. I don't see how this is a problem in the mailer other than all the specifics of her plan were not noted. Supporters of any candidate can go to their website and determine the differences for themselves. As for Nafta, I think that perhaps that was a bit misleading, but I'm sure this will be addressed in the debate where sometimes you can pick up the real truths. At this point, to be honest, I don't think it really matters what Obama does, most people have made up their minds, and he hasn't done anything so devestating that it will hurt his campaign. And again, until all facts are put out there, I wouldn't be so quick to call Obama a hypocrite. I find it amusing that Hillary sat in the last debate and said how Honored she was to be there with Barack Obama and then turn around and try to start working something in her favor. If she showed this much passion and emotion earlier on I think it could have made some difference, but at this point, it's almost too little too late. I think people are tired of her upheavals in her own campaign and she hasn't been able to get it together. She gave a very nice ending to the debate where she received a standing ovation, but to me it sounded like she's giving up. Then you turn around, and there's hate being spewed. I don't get it. I do know this, I don't want to see an Obama, Hillary ticket.

"If Hillary wins Ohio and Texas, I think she'll be the nominee. If YOU DON'T DELIVER for her, I'm afraid she won't be the nominee." He thrusts it on the people -- it's your fault if she doesn't win; you owe this to us. Nowhere does he or she own up to what a flawed campaign she's managed. Shouldn't we judge her leadership skills by how poorly she's run her campaign??

Once voted in she will show she really doesn't give a crap about you and will kick you your agendas you want addressed to the curb like a piece of trash... she could care a less about you.

ms clinton has called obama a "plagerist".

although she does have the credentials of a good politician; deviousness; avoiding any challenge to explain what she wants to do as president; passion for power; a chance to help the country and others too numerous to mention does she have obama's 'plagerism" in her resume?this is a new one so add that to the list of possibilities.

but may i ask ms hillary clinton, "who was your husband and has he helped you in your campaign?", or phrased differently, "if your husband wasn't a president does anyone think you could have arrived where you are now? an alderman in a small midwest town, yes. a presidential candidate?".

i would prefer one of bush's daughters if we are becoming a kingdom. neutron copernicus

At first I was supporting Hillary until she started crying, to get the women voters. What do you think she is going to do when she is sitting with the Middle East Leaders who don't want to speak to women? At that point I think she lost alot of support.

P.S. I am not sold on Obama either... I thought the winning ticket would be having both of them run together. That way we could get the entire party to "UNITE". That would be a big change......

Hillary Clinton is a PHONY. She does not have any more EXPERIENCE than Obama has ("First Lady" does not count as experience. That's like applying for a job at an airline and putting "Wife of pilot" under "Experience.") She does not do any less TALKING than Obama does (They're campaigning for Christ's sake, isn't that what they're SUPPOSED to be doing?) She spends all this time nitpicking things about Obama like his so-called "plagarism" and yet when he says anything remotely negative about her POLICY views it's "Shame on you"? Give me a break.

"Enough with the speeches and the big rallies," she says, incidentally, just after making a speech. Is she just jealous because she can't draw that kind of a crowd? She wants to discuss Obama's tactics in Ohio? If she's got so many examples of bad tactics to draw on why didn't she mention them in last week's debate instead of sitting there staring at him with that sneer plastered on her face the whole time? It's so obvious she's lost touch with reality.

I am not an American but have been following the Presidential Nomination for a while with much interested. I am overwhelmed by Barack and the ways he conducts himself in his campaign. Above all. Americans must realise that they are electing a world leader who can lead the human kind to a safer, cleaner and more peaceful and harmonious coexsitence. Barck has shown that he has what it takes with the quality of a person and the way he conducts himself. As for Hillary, I hope the American people can see that she is no more than just a former first lady who claimed she has a lot of presidential experinece (did she interfere too much during Bill's term to acquired those experience? and she is quick to dismissed Barck's track records as a Governor and Senotor when "her own" relevant experience as presidential material is no than that of Barack's). She shown herself to be weak with her crying baby tactic when the chips are down (to get American sympathy) and a person who has gone balistic and negative because her campaign is falling apart. Her attitude towards Cuba and continued attack on Barack showed how negative and arrogant this person is. She has shown to the world that she is not a "world leader" the human kind is looking for at this clritical time in our history. We need a leader who can, and for a start willing, to brings people together to find a solutions to the problems the world is facing, and not one who wants to set preconditions on these things, just helping to solve problems. America!, can't you see she will take the world to more conflicts with her confrintational leadership style. As a person outside of America but not neccessarily without interest or a stake in this election, I urge and hope all Americans to reject the kind of leadership brought forth by the Clintons and embrace the true leadership of a man who is upright, articulate, conduct himself in a fair and just manner and shown to us that he has what it takes, not only to lead America, but the world communities. True leader comes once in a long time, don't let this go. ( it is bloody unfair when the whole world has a stake in the outcome of a choice of a leader, but can only si and watch, and I hope the Aerican people realie this). God Bless.

No, she must repay the financial favors she's received. NAFTA is good for big business, bad for the people..Obama is truthful-Hillary is throwing a childish tizzy because she is dropping in the polls..not because she is concerned about his integrity or his campaign tactics..Talk about using Rove tactics..which she has learned-you just tell the American people what you want them to believe and many will just go with what she says-though there is not a shred of truth in her accusations.

The media is backing Obama because they are mostly paid to by the GOP, which of course knows john McCain can't beat Hillary. Obama supporters should really wake up soon and fine tune their thinking before another Republican is in office again. Think about it and imagine an untested Junior Senator with less than a full term as our President? I really don't see it happening, especially if he runs against someone who is admired by both Republicans and a lot of Democratic Veterans from the Vietnam era. Mrs Clinton is also admired by a lot of veterans as well. She has spoken to the very heart of their pain. Mr McCain will have the respect of older generation of Vets as well, as they understand and relate to the fact that he was held prisoner and he has guts to deal with our enemies, and those enemies will not be pacified and they are relentless. I am one who will vote for Mrs. Clinton and will shake my head in dismay if Obama is nominated in August at the convention.

Have any of you researched international visits by Barrack? All I could come up with was four visits, including one very failed visit in London. In fact, the article says Barrack is chair of a subcommitte in Washington regarding European foreign policy and he has not produced one single policy, nor taken any actions at all, that he has failed miserably in the chair position. Senator Biden held that position for years. Whoever placed a rookie like Obama in that spot needs their head examined. Hillary's got political clout in most countries throughout this world, established relationships with the power players. What's Barack gonna do if he ends up president - wave his magic wand at those power players and POOF, they fall in love with him? Give me a break. Establising relationships? We don't have time to reinvent that wheel. Only Hillary, out of McCain and Obama, can step up on day one, with her power connections throughout the world, and jump start getting our respect back and get a handle on the crises throughout the world.

Motorcycle riders are not the only ones who die. Ask Sen Clinton if she cares about my daughter, who at the young age of 31 years old a (second grade teacher) died of AML Leukemia. She was very important to our family. A parent should not have to bury a child. A great deal of the money she has spent on fancy hotels and such could be used to help fight blood diseases, other cancers and heart problems. She asks people for money, as they all do, but I bet should wouldn't donate to Team Dana in the Seattle Light the NIght fund raiser for blood cancers. I'll be expecting a check i the mail! My wife and I have raised $42,731 in 5 years in honor of our daughter Dana. We did it the hard way-no $1000 a plate dinners.

D. Brawley, Atlanta, GA — Sun, 24 Feb 2008 00:12:30 GMT

Both Sen. Clinton and Sen. Obama have limited experience in a national office; both are junior senators albeit from states with large metropolitan areas that play major roles in the commercial development of our nation. That having been said, I deeply resent Sen. Clinton's interference that her experience as First Lady uniquely qualifies her to fulfill a role on the international front. Sen. Obama brings the unique perspective of having lived overseas for substantial amounts of time in close, personal contact with different cultures due to his own heritage, making him culturally sensitive and aware in a manner of which few elected officials here in the United States can boast. Additionally, Sen. Obama has spent his entire public service career in forming coalitions and consensus agreements on a grass roots level and lacks the "personal axes to grind" that Sen Clinton beings to the table not only from her days in the Clinton Administration but also her time as the junior senator from New York. While I thoroughly respect Sen. Clinton's opinion of her intelligence, plans, and preparedness to work from day one, I am very skeptical that she will be able to put aside her personal feelings for the good of the nation. Case in point, as one of her husband's foremost advisors on healthcare, she mulishly dug in her heels when she met with opposition rather than attempt to consider other points of view and create options that would benefit the most people with the least pain.

As to the indignation caused by Michelle Obama's comments about just now being proud of her country, that is a sentiment that as another African-American woman living in the United States and being subject to both the covert and overt racism that still exists I can definitely empathize. It is the height of naivete for the majority of America to say that this nation has always taken the high road on moral issues; that is to ignore the very history of the nation itself. America was originally conceived as a penal colony that would yield riches through forced labor to its European "mother" that eventually used racial genocide as a mode of expansion, and even as late as the mid-twentieth century used the entertainment industry to glorify that legacy while subtly maintaining the disenfranchisement of various ethnic groups. This Democratic race is a testament to the evolvement of this nation that it finally has members of two such groups vying for the nomination, but I digress.

Sen. Clinton is too much of a polarizing figure to effectively govern a nation that is struggling to reassert itself on the global stage and turn its current economic picture around. Both candidates have resorted to rhetoric, but I feel that only Sen. Obama has been honest enough to tell the hard truth that we have involved ourselves in a quagmire that has the possibility of destroying the things that decnt, hard-working Americans care about most.

Her current frantic attack on Sen. Obama is fueled by her "advisor's" who like the officers on Hitler's staff, kept telling him that the war was almost won and that the Allies will surrender at any moment, this while the Allies were entering Berlin. I predict that when Shrillary Clinton loses Texas and Ohio, she will like Japan in WWII, refuse to capitulate and so many more of Mrs. Clinton follower's (the Kool-Aid crowd) will continue to lose money by betting on a dead horse.

First i must say that i'm a supporter of Senator Barack Obama and i believe that he is and have always been the best candidate whether dem. or rep. people want to say he has nothing to say in his speeches but the same old rhetoric i think thats a little absurd that people(i.e. Senator Hillary supporters) can sit here and say that like man who has won the last eleven states twenty-three overall could get this far with just rhetoric and then to insult the man because of his race is ridiculous and on top of that the statement that his wife made while i must admit was a huge mistake on her part is not that far off because for america to be so great we still have issues here dealing with racism and prejudice i'm in the military (U.S. Marine Corps) been to Iraq three times and that is still not enough for these country because im still profiled and hated for my skin color by white people not all white people but quite a few people are blind to the fact that racism is still very prevalent in this country and i'm tired of people being so critical of black people supporting Barack because he is black because there are plenty of blacks that support Hillary also but people will pick the candidate that one they can relate to and two who they think will help them best in the White House!! Its 2008 people lets grow up and be true Americans one nation one race because together we stand and divide we fall!! Obama 08'

If this isn't a desperate attempt to get votes by Hillary Clinton then I do not know what is. She is faulting Obama for his eloquence, charisma and rhetoric when in reality that is what most Americans found so appealing with regard to her husband. In my opinion. this just further confirms that the "soft side" Mrs. Clinton showed in New Hampshire and Texas were merely tactical and not her true identity. This jig is up. The least she could do is lose gracefully...and please, no more crocodile tears. As a woman, I find it quite offensive that an obviously strong, educated and talented woman would resort to such stereotypical behavior.

I am having a good time just following this campaign. I think that we have various issues here, which are very obvious to me. By the way I am neutral in this.

Clinton and Obama are politicians. They say the best things they can say to win. Everybody will do that, so there is no harm done.

I used to be very impressed with Hilary Clinton; I thought she was really smart and that still stands. But I am getting to be very worried about her being president of the US. She portrays a very arrogant front. She is not presenting herself well in dignified manner. She does not appear to be feeling the pulse of the people; that is not smart. She recently got booed for attacking Obama during the last debate. By my assessment she is getting to be desperate and showing her dirty side. I start to feel that if you cross her as a president, she will swat you like a fly. That worries me a lot.

During the early days of this campaign, Clinton was nice to Obama, I find. Maybe she felt she would have an easy time as he was black and she was a woman and white. I am not sure but it is possible. But as things became close and people started to support Obama, Clinton started to bare her teeth. Meanwhile, Obama has impressed me. He stays with the issues better than she has and he has gained the respect of many. She, meanwhile, is insinuating that people do see through Obama. That is telling people that she is right and they are not. She is really being a cry baby and that is a sign of weakness. She does not have any special right to win over Obama. But somehow, she passes the information, at least to me, that people must vote for her because she has got all the right answers.

What distinguishes Obama from Clinton is that Obama is talking to the people. Clinton is not. She is expecting from the people.... She expects to win. She is not at ground level.

For those of you out there who want to drag Obama's wife into this fray, please do not do that. Whatever thesis she wrote is up to her and it contained her ideas. That has nothing to do with Obama. I think Clinton supporters are trying to get dirty too. A sign of desperation!!! This will not make Clinton win. It will just turn a lot of people off.

Will Obama win? I think he may win and may even become the next president. Some of us feel that because Obama is black he does not stand a chance. But what we do not realize is that because he is black he may have something different to offer. Many whites who want to see their lives improve will vote for him.

One thing I know is that McCain will have a hard time if he runs again Obama. Clinton may mess it with her attitude.

When Senator Barack Obama brought up the question as to whether or not his supporters and cult-like "followers" were considered "delusional" by Senator Hillary Clinton and others, he acted insulted by even the mere THOUGHT of it being true. From what I have seen the past 6 months of his supporters, I dont believe that THEY are delusional, I believe the BARACK himself is delusional. I base this on the simple fact that there is a canyon of difference between his campaign rally rhetoric and the reality of his proposed policies. Since his policies are nearly identical to Hillary's proposed policies, then WHY is he arrogant enough to claim that HE represents "change" and she represents "the status quo" in Washington D.C. In reality, his proposed policies are rather bland and unimaginative and basically follow the democratic party line. In reality, Hillary's plan to adopt a TRUE Universal Healthcare Plan is much more significant and incredibly brave and progressive. It is Senator Barack Obama's health care plan proposal that smacks of just "more of the same". And now, to top it all off, he is deciding to utilize incredibly underhanded campaign strategies that more closely reflect the fear-based ones adopted by the Republicans in both the 2000 and 2004 Presidential election campaigns. So, I am sorry to say this, but yes, if supporters blindly follow a politician that is hypocritical and delusional, then, by association THEY end up looking delusional. My own vote stays steadfastly with the candidate that is best qualified to be the next President of the United States. Senator Hillary Clinton.

I don't understand why Hillary is so angry? I've listened to four debates, and she says her health care plan DOES impose mandates that could potentially penalize people for not enrolling in health care. I also thought she did support NAFTA at one time; that's also mentioned in debates. So why did the woman flip her lid over Obama's mailers? At least he's addressing real issues rather than making up silly charges like plagarism. Hillary has attacked Obama over and over again, so why shouldn't she expect him to attack her as well?

This, another chapter in the wreck of a desperate, fiscally mismanaged campaign who took her electorate for granted, and completely underestimated her esteemed colleague from Illinois, the above mention Mr. Obama.

She is in the situationshe is in because of the decisions she has made...from overspending, to hiring ineffective advisors, still stumping the same old tired message that just is NOT working...and she needs someone to blame...fortunately for most of us, we've all seen the same old Clinton campaign machine before, and it ain't foolin' us this time!!

If you have to 'STEAL' emotions from someone else, it's not only really sad, it shows that She Does Not Care about us!

Joseph P. Dorchack Bolingbrook, Illinois — Sun, 24 Feb 2008 00:19:33 GMT

The classic Rovian tactic is to go after the opponent's strength, not weakness. In this case, Senator Clinton has decided to go after Barack Obama's contention that he represents a change from the old politics. The key is that the outrage is invariably phony and the issue taken is usually made up. Amazingly, that is exactly the case here, so who is Rovian and who's not?

But why be surprised? This is classical Clinton strategy as well. The sense of "outrage" at being "falsely" accused is so familiar. After all, didn't Bill Clinton insist that he NEVER had sexual relations with that woman? Didn't Bill Clinton lie to a grand jury about his relationship to Paula Jones? Didn't he lose his license to practice law over that bit of truth-bending?

Nicolo Macchiavelli coined the phrase, "the end justifies the means." Obviously he would have been comfortable acting as one of Mrs. Clinton's paid political flunkies!

I am a black man and unlike what alot of people think I am not an Sen Obama supporter because of it. I like many Americans are ready for a change. A fresh face and a new set of ideas. I was extremely excited to see both Sen. Clinton and Obama enter the race. I tried to be objective and understand that if he wins Sen. Obama wont be President of Black America only. (Which unfortunately some people on both sides think)As time has went on I have been critical Bill's overzealous role and the dispatching of Chelsea to speak to "young people" on her behalf. However I too have lost alot of respect for Sen Clinton after a serious of losses has her not only reeling but becoming extremely negative. I learned something along time ago, when arguing with people you have long term relationships with ie: family, friends and other party members, you don't want to say anything personal. Sen. Clinton has crossed that line and continues too look childish and divisive. You would think that the Democratic party would step in an say something. Whats worst while Sen Obama and Clinton beat up on each other McCain looks better. I too once hoped for a Clinton Obama ticket but now I am not sure if its too late for that. Thanks alot Hillary your class has showed all too well.

This election started off as a decision between the greater of two canidates, but it has spiraled recently into that all too familiar territory of an election of the lesser of two evils. I do not support the flier technique of Barrack Obama, but for some of the Hillary supporters to suggest that she is the clean canidate is insane to me. She has dragged Obama into the mud because that's the only way she knows how to run for office. I'm a young democrat who is quickly losing passion for this proccess, largely due to her tactics. This being my first time voting for president, I had hoped to help change this proccess, but now I'm just disheartened. By the way, why is it that a young, "naive" voter like myself seems to be one of the only people who've checked the Library of Congress for both canidates Senatorial records. Obama has authored more bills, covering a more wide variety of topics than Hillary. He's had almost all his Bills sponsored by other senators, including Hillary, while she has had trouble getting anything she does sponsored. By just examining their records, He really is more qualified than her. That's what should matter in an ELECTION, not their tactics, which both canidates have been shameless with.

She is now against the WAR in IRAQ but she voted to authorize the war. If she was against the war why didn't she say it with her vote. With all of the experience she brings to the job has she not learned to speak her own mind? What does she really believe this week and when will she change her mind? HRC, you won't fool me again.

This is a desperate attempt by a desperate politician who is in danger of losing her 'right' to the Bush-Clinton White House dynasties as heir apparent. Obama's facts in the mailers check out, a few web searches on the sources of information prove that. Merely pointing out critical differences in campaign platforms does not rise to the level of bashing that happens from Republicans and Hillary should know that by now.

"Obama’s mailer could be faulted for the manner in which a third party quote appears to be from Clinton. I would prefer that even this degree of error not be present, but this is quite trivial compared to how Clinton has campaigned.

While misleading with regard to a quote, Obama’s mailer is correct with regards to the facts concerning Clinton’s support for NAFTA.

In contrast, Clinton has sent out mailers which were totally misleading regarding Obama’s positions on issues such as Social Security, abortion rights, Iraq, and health care. Clinton’s distortions on abortion rights led Lorna Brett Howard, the former President of Chicago NOW, to drop her support for Clinton and back Obama. Clinton has also raised bogus charges such on plagiarism, distorted the meaning of voting present in the Illinois legislature, and distorting Obama’s references to Ronald Reagan in an interview."

Barack Obama criticised over 'cult-like' rallies
By William Lowther in Washington
Last Updated: 4:24pm GMT 23/02/2008

For many it is simply a sign of his charisma. But for a growing number of Barack Obama sceptics, there is something disturbing about the adulation with which the senator and Democratic presidential frontrunner is greeted as he campaigns for the White House - unnervingly akin to the hysteria of a cult, or the fervour of a religious revival.

Donors rail against Hillary Clinton's spending
Full coverage of the US Elections 2008
Thousands wait in line to see him wherever he stops. Members of the audience have taken to rushing the stage during campaign rallies, forcing the public-address announcer to plead with them to back off.

Fainting has become common at Obama rallies
And when Mr Obama eventually takes the platform to rhythmic chants of his mantra-like slogan, “Yes we can, yes we can!” fans swoon with euphoria.

Now critics are quietly voicing the fear that Mr Obama and his campaign have deliberately adopted the tone and tactics of an evangelical preacher, whipping up “Obamamania” at the expense of more serious discussion of policy and government.

There is “something just a wee bit creepy about the mass messianism” deployed by the black senator and his supporters, observed Joe Klein, the veteran political commentator the first to latch on to the political potency of Bill Clinton, then an obscure Arkansas governor, early in the 1992 White House campaign.

“The message is becoming dangerously self-referential,” he wrote in Time magazine. “The Obama campaign all too often is about how wonderful the Obama campaign is.”

At no fewer than six of Mr Obama’s recent rallies, young enthusiasts have been so overcome with excitement that they have fainted in front of the stage.

Indeed, fainting has become so common that a team of medical volunteers is ordered to be on hand to treat the victims, and Mr Obama has interrupted his own speeches to give his followers a blow by blow commentary of their recovery.

A senior Obama official, who would talk only on condition of anonymity, told The Sunday Telegraph that the campaign was worried that the cult charges would stick and harm their candidate.

He acknowledged that Mr Obama generated wild enthusiasm and devotion among young fans - most of them voting for the first time - but insisted this was due to the senator’s “charisma and the political inspiration that informs his speeches.”

Barack Obama's rallying pop song
A brilliant speaker, Mr Obama often uses the rhetorical trick of rapidly repeating words and slogans and using catchy phrases that tend to attract young Americans, while having very little substance.

Favourites include the call: “We are the hope of the future. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.”

Dr Sean Wilentz, a Princeton historian and stern critic of the current administration of George W.Bush, said: “What’s troubling about the campaign is that it’s gone beyond hope and change to redemption.”

When Oprah Winfrey endorsed Mr Obama in Iowa last month she proclaimed: “I believe he is The One.”

At the campaign’s “Camp Obama” - a training programme run ahead of primaries in key states - volunteers are schooled to avoid talking to voters about policy, and instead tell of how they “came” to Obama, just as born-again Christians talk about “coming to Jesus.”

New York Times columnist David Brooks wrote: “Obama’s people are so taken with their messiah that soon they’ll be selling flowers at airports and arranging mass weddings.”

Obama fever has also broken out on the internet - and a rash of new sites has opened, poking gentle fun at the senator’s over-the-top campaign.

One shows him dressed as a pharaoh, another as a sumo wrestler and a third as a Navajo Indian, complete with blue-and-white feathered headdress.

A site called “Is Barack Obama the Messiah?” has a doctored photo of Obama standing on a flight of stairs, Christlike, above an adoring crowd while a ray of light beams from above.

Millions of people have watched a “Yes We Can” video on the internet’s YouTube website, in which celebrities including Scarlett Johansson and the Black Eyed Peas sing the words to an Obama speech in what Mr Brooks describes as “escalating states of righteousness and ecstacy.”

He added: “If that video doesn’t creep out normal working-class voters, then nothing will.”

In Mr Obama’s defence, Robert Caro, historian and biographer of President Lyndon Johnson, said: “Today, attacks on the cult of personality seem really to mean attacks on the ability to make speeches that inspire.

“But you only have to look at crucial moments in the history of our time to see how crucial it was to have a leader who could inspire, who could rally a nation to a standard, who could infuse a country with confidence, to remind people of the justice of a cause.”

Others suggest that the Mr Obama’s opponents are behind the charge that he is encouraging a cult of personality, being otherwise unable to explain how a first-term senator has managed to dazzle his way to the top.

Some blame Hillary Clinton’s campaign - desperate to slow Mr Obama’s momentum - for trying to skewer her opponent with the cult label.

And in a tart dig at Mr Obama, the near-certain Republican presidential candidate John McCain said last week: “I do not seek the presidency on the presumption that I am blessed with such personal greatness that history has anointed me to save my country in its hour of need.”

Mr Obama later told a crowd that he would “take it down a notch.”

But for now the fervour his campaign has generated has been working. He has won the last 10 state caucus and primary elections and as a result has a growing lead in the delegates who will choose the Democratic candidate at the party’s convention in August.

On the most recent count by the authoritative website, Real Clear Politics, Mr Obama has won 1,185 delegates to Mrs Clinton’s 1,024, with each needing 2,025 needed to win the nomination.

The next major test will come on March 4 with the Texas and Ohio primaries, in which a total of 334 delegates are at stake.

Mrs Clinton’s closest advisers have readily admitted that in order to remain a viable candidate she must win both of these elections.

A month ago she was leading in each state by about 20 points, but this weekend Mr Obama drew almost even with her in Texas and had more than halved her lead in in Ohio

What politician do you know that does not lie or color the truth to get votes? No matter who gets in office what is necessary to keep money flowing for the rich is going to be the main objective. Because greed is the reason why the world is so messed up now. So while you are concerned about having a Black president, another Clinton, or McCain for president, you should be concern with your salvation with God, and everything else will work itself out.

Clinton on the attack

MJ Kurtz Troy New York — Sun, 24 Feb 2008 00:23:31 GMT

just before we invaded Iraq, I was very frightened. I listened to the reports from intelligence and Powell. I wanted America to go to war with Iraq. I was worried he would eventually send a Nuclear Bomb, or have someone sneak in to America with a plague of some kind. We were all fooled. If I was a senator then I would have voted for the war too! Now we all know different, we are not held accountable for how we felt or acted before we knew the truth, so why should Hillary Clinton be punished? Heck, I wrote to her and asked she vote for war. It was a different time then. When I listen to Obama and see his wife, I feel a sense of foreboding evil. Something is terribly wtong, He or the people behind him have hypnotized us all. Wake up, go with the Devil you know. She is smart, and she is harmless. So what she sounds shrill when she is mad. All of us woman sound shrill when we are mad. Give her a break. If he has accomplished anything to get him where he is today, then tell me about it. He is just a tall black man with a fairly decent looking not so nice wife. Let us all have a moment of silence and ask for guidance. Hillary is the choice, if we don't wake up. We will have four more years of bumbling. At least she has a plan.

Obama is a joke. Do you really want him to have his finger on the button of the largest military force in the world? He sounds like Bush in 2000. A likeable guy without a clue. Hillary for President. Its our only chance
