Ron Hussein Allen — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 22:08:30 GMT

Chuck,
Here is my response:
1. McCain actually voted against a legislation banning torture.
2. Clinton is a very inconsistent person, often self-contradicting. He criticized McCain, as you said, earlier today, then he praises him. Of course the Vietman war was a worthless war of ideologies between communism and capitalism, not in support of human rights or democracy, and McCain comes from a warrior class and seems to delight in war in his young life. Nonetheless, he should be honored.
3. Bill's praise of McCain seems to indicate his realization that Hillary may not be able to catch up with Obama and by praising McCain, he is hoping Obama loses in November. Also, don't forget that while he praised this Republican (Hillary and McCain are friends, as she put it), he strongly denounced Obama's praise of Reagan for his ability to attract Reagan Democrats.

Lets be frank and honest. Obama and Hillary deserve praising for their work and concerns for the people of our country. But talking about higher level of being president they do not live as yet to our expectation of the prime office as president of the USA.Our best bet is to vote for McCain. Sure, he is the most quelified. Besides, can you imagine the presidency and the congress in the hands of the Democrats? What an internal mess and an external foreign policies weakness!

Reality Check On Clinton's Claims on Florida and Michigan Delegates

The Pledge Clinton Signed

WHEREAS, Over a year ago, the Democratic National Committee established a 2008 nominating calendar;

WHEREAS, this calendar honors the racial, ethnic, economic and geographic diversity of our party and our country;

WHEREAS, the DNC also honored the traditional role of retail politics early in the nominating process, to insure that money alone will not determine our presidential nominee;

WHEREAS, it is the desire of Presidential campaigns, the DNC, the states and the American people to bring finality, predictability and common sense to the nominating calendar.

THEREFORE, I, [Name], Democratic Candidate for President, pledge I shall not campaign or participate in any state which schedules a presidential election primary or caucus before Feb. 5, 2008, except for the states of Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire and South Carolina, as "campaigning" is defined by rules and regulations of the DNC.

It should be obvious to all what the Clinton plan is now. It's been obvious for some time that it is impossible Hillary to beat Obama in total delegates and that super-delegates have been leaning toward voting with delegate count to avoid any "backroom decision" accusations.
With McCain's age, he is likely to only run for a single term and Clinton sees a chance to run again in 2012. However, if Obama were to win, she'd need to wait until 2016.
Basically, the Clinton's know she's lost and are now rooting for McCain so they can try again next time.

I have grown very tired of the Clintons and their doublespeak. I simply can't believe how low they have stooped. To put down a fellow democrat and praise a Republican completely undermines whatever legacy Bill was hoping to have. Bill's legacy is now forever tarnished in my opinion. Nancy Pelosi was so right when she said that there is no way for a "dream ticket" when one democrat is praising a republican over her fellow democrat. Simply amazing.

BOY IT'S SAD. The Clinton's came into this campaign with such stature and authority. If Hillary had just taken the high road (perhaps losing in TX) or if even now she said "Look, the math doesn't work. We fought hard but we lost." She would be honored as one of the greats in the party. Maybe she'd be president someday , certainly a leader. But no. Both Clintons are turning themselves into a joke. A stereotype of what folks have always said about them -- that it is all about them. Bill CLinton had actually managed to rescue his legacy over the past 8 years. Now he has re-squandered it. Suddenly the selfishness of Lewinsky seems more emblematic than the Global Iniative. Hillary will become just another partisan warrior -- and Bill another wet noodle ex-President. Sad.

Yes, I can see how you would think Hillary is riding Obama's coat tails!!! Of course after copying most of his speaches from JFK, MLK & Malcomb X I shouldn't expect him to be any more original without his teleprompter. Also, Hillary was the first democratic president to talk about boosting the economy through green jobs but Obama must have thought that was good to add to his list of "ideas".

For all the Clinton supporters, please cite some other historical examples where a former president has gone so out of his way to praise a Republican who supports conducting a war our own party wants to end and now supports tax cuts he voted against that are also unpopular to our party. A man whose policies represent little difference than a sitting President with approval ratings the lowest since Nixon. This is nothing more than the Clinton's playing the fear card to divide us. United we defeat McCain easily, but if the Clintons can convince us only one candidate can win we become smaller and our efforts to enact real change in this country more difficult.But they don't care about that- its all about getting themselves elected. The desperation grows daily. Who knows which Clinton personality will emerge tomorrow. Tomorrow John McCain may be evil if the polls say that's what will work. We can be divided by the politics of the past or we can say enough is enough- no more of this. It hasn't solved any of our major issues and it never will. Please say no to talk radio politics.

President Clinton is just saying what most people believe. We don't agree with everything McCain believes in but respect him as a veteran and a patriot. People are just trying to make something out of nothing.

As for the primary, the Clinton's need to make the case that Hillary is a better candidate than Obama, which she is. I respect the years of service she has done for all communities, including the African American community who has now turned their back on her.

This is an election. Come out slugging until your opponent is out. She is a fighter which just makes me want to vote again for her.

Eric, NY, NY — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 02:25:27 GMT

Barack Obama gave what could be deemed as an eloquent and courageous speech the other day on race and racial politics in reaction to the controversy over the comments by his spiritual advisor and pastor of twenty years Reverend Jerimah Wright. When you get beyond the words and method of the speech, however, questions still remain.

In his speech Obama stated that he could not denounce or disavow his pastor anymore than he could distance himself from his white grandmother who he says made comments that he found to be divisive or derogatory.

While I will admit to not knowing Barack Obama’s grandmother I would suspect that she has never stated words that rise to the level of blaming America for 9/11, that this is the US of KKK-America, that we should not say God Bless America but God Damn America, and that the US helped South Africa put Nelson Mandela in jail which are all things that Barack Obama’s pastor, who he has called his spiritual advisor and baptized his children, has all said.

I would also remind Barack Obama that you cannot choose your family (which his grandmother is) but you can choose which church you go to and what language you expose your children to. Barack Obama chose the church in Chicago where a pastor has blamed white people for all that is wrong with this country, who traveled to Libya to meet with the leaders of that country, and who honored Reverend Farrakhan.

Moreover, Barack Obama throughout his denials of the last week has stated repeatedly that he had never heard any of the controversial statements of this pastor and that when the campaign had started he only heard about a couple of the statements and then only heard about the rest in the past few days. In his speech he stated that he WAS there for some of these remarks, without stating specifically which ones, and claimed that he was bothered by some of these statements although he also stated he never talked to Pastor Wright about these. So was Barack Obama lying earlier when he stated he did not hear about these statements or is he lying now when he said he did? Also, if Barack Obama could not stand up to his Pastor when he spoke the way he did about this country, its government, and the majority of the people in it how can we expect Barack Obama to stand up to the people who are blocking ending the Iraq war, who are not for universal health care, and to those who wish to do harm to this country and their allies.

Regardless of a speech by Barack Obama that most say was done well this is not about speeches and words but about integrity and judgment and on both of these tests Barack Obama has failed.

The White House schedule records show that Hillary didn't have much interest in military affairs when she was in the White House. MSNBC reports:

"Take, for example, when Al Qaeda terrorists bombed the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania in 1998, killing hundreds of people. Mrs. Clinton’s schedule does not show any foreign policy meetings in the aftermath of the crisis, only a trip to Andrews Air Force Base to console victims and their families as they returned from Africa to the United States. And when, in retaliation for those embassy attacks, President Clinton bombed Al Qaeda terrorist camps in Afghanistan, where was Mrs. Clinton? The records show that she was vacationing at a “private residence” in Martha’s Vineyard, Ma., and had no official events."

That's Hillary's REAL experience!! SHE KNOWS HOW TO LIVE IT UP WITH HER FAT CAT FRIENDS AND WHEN TROOPS ARE PUTTING THEIR LIVES ARE ON THE LINE SHE TAKES A VACATION.

I think Barack Obama's chances of becoming President have been fatally flawed over the last week. His association with Rev. Wright is now only part of his problem. Now he has a credibility problem in how forthcoming he was about that involvement. I don't think that the country would want him answering the phone at 3.00 am if it took him 20 years to realize that his preacher was not preaching the true word. Does it sound a little bit like Bonds and Clemens denials about steroid use? You would have to be a very naive person to bite on that line.

By the way... I was really moved and inspired by Barack's speech in Philadelphia yesterday. Now the next day, it is not getting the amount of positive press coverage that I thought it would get. That surprises me because it was such an inspirational speech. He is the truly inspirational Leader that America has been needing for quite some time.

Bill praises McCain, calls him tough to beat

Ben Franks — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 03:32:54 GMT

Bill certainly is a busy man. Here is part of his schedule when he was in office:

Nov. 15, 1995: The first lady was in a mid-afternoon "meet & greet" photo opportunity at the White House with various Nobel Laureates and their families. That night, Lewinsky had what she later said was her first sexual encounter with the president in the private study off the Oval office.

Nov. 17, 1995: Mrs. Clinton had no public schedule and was at the White House. That night, Lewinsky said she had a sexual encounter with the president while he was on the telephone in the White House with a member of Congress.

Dec. 31, 1995: Lewinsky said she and the president had a sexual encounter early that afternoon in a study down the hall from the Oval Office. Sometime afterward, the president, first lady and their daughter, Chelsea, flew to Hilton Head, S.C., to spend New Year's Eve with hundreds of friends during their annual getaway at an intellectual family retreat known as Renaissance Weekend.

Jan. 7, 1996: On a Sunday afternoon, Lewinsky and the president spent most of the afternoon in the Oval Office. The first lady and the president had a small dinner with 20 people at "the Old Family Dining Room" at the White House.

Jan. 21, 1996: The first lady had no public schedule, but she and the president privately toured an exhibit at the National Gallery of Art. Lewinsky and the president had an afternoon sexual encounter in the hallway by the private study next to the Oval Office, Lewinsky said later.

Feb. 4, 1996: Mrs. Clinton and the president attended the National Governors Association annual dinner. Lewinsky said she and the president had a sexual encounter that day, and sat and talked in the Oval Office for about 45 minutes.

March 31, 1996: Mrs. Clinton toured an archaeological site and museum in Delphi, Greece, and watched a folk dance performance. That day, Lewinsky said she and the president resumed their sexual contact.

April 7, 1996, Easter Sunday. Mrs. Clinton had no public schedule. Lewinsky said that, at the president's suggestion, she performed oral sex while he was on the telephone in his office.

Feb. 28, 1997: The schedule shows Mrs. Clinton was in the White House at least part of the day, when President Clinton and Lewinsky had oral sex near the Oval Office, leaving stains on her dress. There were no public events, but the schedule shows Mrs. Clinton had "drop by" events or meetings in the Map Room and Diplomatic Reception Room between 11 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. The schedule also lists plays and a concert that night, but it is not clear whether Mrs. Clinton attended.

March 29, 1997: On the day when Lewinsky later told independent counsel Kenneth Starr that she had her final sexual encounter with the president, Mrs. Clinton was thousands of miles away in Eritrea. In his grand jury testimony, the president denied this encounter. The first lady that day toured the Martyrs' Cemetery in Eritrea, where she participated in a wreath-laying ceremony and a tree planting. She also visited a health care clinic, spoke to villagers, and toured a polio vaccination room. She visited a woodworking center, held a round-table discussion with the National Union of Eritrean Women and met the country's president.

What was she doing in the White House while Bill was NOT engaging in sexual relations with Monica? Also, can anyone say sipping martinis is real experience? LOL.
I guess Hillary cares more about superdelegates than the black vote. And by the way, blue collar voters aren't all stupid. They won't fall for your tactics.

Never in the history of the Obama campaign has race relations been so important as to divert attention from the comments Rev Wright made about justification for what Al Qaida did to the United States. It's what is known as diversion. While Barack Obama is squabbling about race relations in the United States, John McCain is traveling around the world, and excercising his foreign policy experience with Middle Eastern countries, and trying to create dialogue between Tibet and China.

Still the Clinton's aren't going to a church and letting the Pastor tell all the little kids "God Damn America" are they.
See, you lost the right to condemn the Clinton's on anything cause your guy compares his grandmother to Pastor Wright. Isn't that nice. The woman who took him in when his mama didn't want him-made him cringe. Poor little boy. He looked real upset with her when he was living the high life in the islands man. Didn't he look oppressed in his college picture with Grandma and Grandpa. They looked so proud of him. It's really sad how he just stepped on her grave. So Obama people-- all the black people I know would cut out their tounges before they would say anything about the Grandmothers who raised them. Ya, you got a winner there. Must make ya real proud.

First off, I agree that a compromise solution should be worked out so that Michigan and Florida have some say in the current election cycle. That said, I think it is a shame that Clinton is using a legitimate concern of the states' voters to win political points.

The problem with Clinton is that she's so transparent, but not in a good way! She presents herself as championing the democratic process when it suits her campaign but just as easily ignores vox populi in states where she lost. Now we read reports of her financial supporters (read: big business) getting into the act, harassing the DNC to push for a revote in Florida and Michigan. Obviously, they are anxious about not getting some kind of a return on their "investment"....

What is the real reason Bill is backing McCain. Maybe all of the "kitchen sink" strategies of race issues and supposed unfair treatment of his wife has him realizing that a black man will be running for president against McCain. I mean what is the real reason Hillary was offering up 12 million dollars to the state of Michigan for a re-do. Trying to buy her way into the White House. Face it Bill and Hillary never thought that Obama would ever be in this position. If Bill Clinton would have kept his mouth shut, he would not have lost all of that crucial black vote. And might I add, whites, latinos, asians, and native americans decided not to back her after his comments as well. As far as McCain goes, McCain can not even figure out the difference between insurgents, the Taliban, and Al Queda and where they are, where they are training, or where they are coming from. If Bill and Hillary can not get back into the White House to continue their conniving, deceitful, manipulative, and scandalous ways, Bill most definitely will push for McCain to win. The Clintons have truly showed their colors. How about this - McCain/Hillary Clinton. That is what the Clinton campaign is promoting and is disseminating on the airwaves. They will never get my vote. I am not interested in seeing my tax paying dollar go to support Bill's libido and Hillary's refusal to do anything about it.

His wife's plan??? Get real. That's Obama's plan. I clearly remember listening to Obama talk about this plan, and discussing it with my kids (one in college, one soon to be) LONG before Bill decided to claim this as "his wife's plan."

So now the Clinton's are trying to own one of Obama's economic plans while at the same time putting the "McCain would make a fine president" idea out there. Just how stupid do the Clintons think we are?

Dear Bill,

Did you not realize this will come off as something of an endorsement for Sen McCain over Sen Obama? I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt that you were actually trying to make the case for Sen Clinton as the best candidate to take on Sen McCain. But GEEZ man! Get your head back in the game (the one that starts in Aug). Yes, it is a pitty that you can't say in public "I like John McCain" and have everyone understand you simply mean that you like John McCain. That's what regular, unfamous people get to do. However, you are an ex-President involved in a contentious primary campaign who's words carry weight way beyond what citizen Bill Clinton thinks sitting on a barstool. What you say will be parsed, and analyzed and laundered beyond all recognition. You spent 8 years in the White House fishbowl fer cryin' out loud; GET YOUR HEAD BACK IN THE GAME!

Bill praises McCain, calls him tough to beat

Give me a break — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 07:02:52 GMT

Hillary is tearing our party apart for her own ego.

Consider the following:

1) Hillary has received less than 40% of the vote in 22 out of 41 contests so far. Barack has received less in only 4 contests. This means that most of the time he is no only beating her, but beating her by a enormous margin. In the few contest she actually won (and in two of those it was so close that Barack actually won the most delegates.) she barely beats Barack. If this was any other cadidate in any other race the party would be screaming for her to stand down so the stronger candidate can focus on the big prize.

2) Hillary is willing to throw the entire party under the Bus if she doesn't get the nomination. Her comments that only she and McCain can pass the Commander in Chief test are ridiculous and very careless. She is yielding the point to the opposition no matter who wins and then basically leaving a ticking time bomb if she doesn't. It is all about Hillary (I'm in it to win it ... at any cost)

3) There is no Hillary mo (momentum). Since super tuesday Barack is beating Hillary 15 1/2 to 2 1/2, I don't care what analogy you use this is a near shut out. Even since Barack went 12-0 against her, he has increased his delegate lead and beat her 3 1/2 to 2 1/2. The media would be screaming she needs to step down and pointing out the litany of reasons why. They don't because they are really biased toward Hillary and the subtle comments over and over again on CNN suggest its close or create fantasy reasons to still consider her as viable. Consider last night as they did the detailed analysis on the map and said see these couple of districts she won, well they were republican so who can get part of the rebulican vote (the inference they want you to draw is that she can get more of the vote.) What they didn't tell you is that Barack won more of the republican districts than Hillary did and by correct inference would draw more republican votes than Hillary did.

4) No one can deny Barack has done amazing things for getting people excited about our party especially the young voters. Once Hillary is through with all of her destroy everyone but me, trash everyone but me, have my team slander every one a give back handed apologies, use any one at any time, say anything at any time, approach these young voters will feel about the party the same way we felt with the Gore vs Bush debacle.

5) Hillary billed 1000 (1/2 a year) on whitewater but under oath had no recollection about what she did. Is that the kind of memory we want taking those 3:00 am calls?????

Barack has built up so much for our party and Hillary is a one women wrecking crew.

I love how much praise is going to the John McCain from the Democratic Party. As an active duty member of the USAF, I would hope nothing less. I salute you officer McCain.

But on the other side of this I see exactly what the Clintons are doing. They want Hillary to be the first non-white male president regardless of what it takes. They wish to trash Sen. Obama to the point where the average American won't accept him. With simple things like:

1. McCain is better suited than Obama to be President.

2. Constant praises of Sen. McCain

3. Make the Democratic Party as divide as possible with race and gender. (this all started with S. Carolina and taken to a new level with Ohio/Texas).

It is sad for me as an active duty military member, this is the type of BS I give my life for. The land where every man and woman is considered equal, isn't appearing to be so, to the rest of the world. How can we preach equality to other nations when we can't do it ourselves...

tim nyc — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 08:35:31 GMT

Dear Chuck,

This is actually in response to a earlier article about how Hilary can win . Im not a supporter but the tactics seem rather simple ....first she must blow out Obama by more than 12 points in Pennsylvania +then flip a state like NC which was polling +8 for Obama and is now down to even money . she simply states at the debate that its not up to her or Brarack to decide if Rev scandal is over but the people will decide so if she is able to pull out Indiana as well as WV all of a sudden political narrative is that the BIG O is in a freeefall and that delegate lead means precious little as Dems desperately fear the unthinkable ...losing in a year they just cannot lose. Meanwhile positive media winner spin will give hillary more positive press + improver her one on one pollsa against mccain while obama will continue to drop or float even esp if mccain continues with his senior moments . The key to defeating Obama is realizing his whole campaign is a concept "the UNITER" a idea whose time has come +not very deeply thought out .....this balloon could pop way easier than most realize

Well, there's Bill Clinton out on the stump again, endorsing McCain.

The real notion of "change" is to end the Bush-Clinton dynasty. No one questions the desperate need for change from Bush, but the Clintons also need to be sent packing. Their domination of the Democratic party as their own personal vehicle to power has held it hostage for far too long. It has rendered the Democrats incompetent for dealing with present realities. The Clinton brand on the Democrats is a stain and they are burdened with baggage and an unsavory past. The Clintons are desperate to salvage their legacy even if it comes at the expense of the party--which is why the Right sees the Clintons as their best shot for unifying a demoralized Republican base and the triangulating ego-driven, unethical Clintons are more than willing to comply.
People wonder why the Democratic party lacks leadership...Is it any wonder why the Clintons hate Howard Dean? He is the one player they can't keep on a lead. In order for the Democrats to be strong and relevant again, the Clintons need to go.

She'll continue to do whatever she can to destroy Obama so that she can run in 2012. Just watch. She doesn't give a damn about democrats or the people. Just herself. She'd gladly let us deal with 4 years of McSame just to get her Presidency at some point.

This started with Hillary Clinton preferring to see McCain win in November if she doesn't win in June: the who-can-be-Commander-in-Chief story. So now Bill is delivering her message, disguised a little. Seems strange that the Democratic Party would continue to consider the candidacy of someone who, if she has to sit out this game, would prefer to see the other team win. Hope Superdelegates can tell the difference between devotion to self and devotion to Party, since, in the end, it will be devotion to America, not self, that will count when the inevitable storms blow up. Never go to sea with a Captain who lets the crew fall overboard in a storm. Try a captain like Senator Obama who showed this week, with exquisite calmness and skill, that he can sail in an intense storm. That's the kind of Captain needed to beat McCain!! That's the kind of Captain that America will need!

I think I can say that all the candidates are seeking what they feel will be a better America.

I know I'm exhauseted just watching this primary unfold. I can hardly imagine how the nation will feeling by November. Remember the before and after photos of Jimmy Carter during his years in the White House? Hillary already is showing physical strain. This crazy primary process needs to be shortened. I vote for 4 primaries: West, South, MidWest, and NorthEast/MidAtlantic, one each month in April, May, June, and July. Then wrap it up in August at a convention, and move on to a two-month General Election Campaign. This is too stressful and keeps us focused on politics more than on enacting legislation and getting problems solved.
