Go Hillary!
I am sooo glad Hillary is overtaking O-blam-a now.
He is like sooo not popular anymore!
The deciderer has a strategery to put food on your family.
Funny how this fair and balanced news reporting never mentioned the racism Obama supporters faced on the campaign trail but was more than happy to continue the Rev. Wright deal. I guess this is not as fair and balanced as they say or maybe it was an oversight. Somehow I doubt it when not a beat was missed to point that same finger at Obama. This is leading up to another stain on America. We have not come as far as some would have you believe.
Nothing Changes bellyaches…

Oh give it a rest. The vast majority of racist crap I have experienced in this election season has come from the Obamabots.

Statistically, how can Hillay Clinton overtake Obama? However she might get the presidential nomination would have to be done by negotiation with the super delegates and possibly counting the votes of Michigan and Florida. How could any of that be done fairly with Obama in the lead of the delegate count and the DNC and these two states not being able to come to a concensus about a recount? Hillary is just hanging on in the hope that Obama will make a major gaff and she can step in and take over. THAT would be a dangerous prospect for our country–to have Hillary lead it along the path toward her socialistic programs!
YOU GO HILLARY!! WOO – HOO……………….
BTW, WATCH WHO THE SUPERDELEGATES VOTE FOR. THAT SHOULD TELL YOU IF YOU WANT THEM REELECTED TO OFFICE IN THE FUTURE!! THE SUPERDELEGATES ARE LOOKING AT THE BIG $$ IN THEIR BACK POCKETS, INSTEAD OF WHAT IS BEST FOR OUR COUNTRY!!

Well, I live in Florida and I want my vote counted! Just because our goofy government decided to move up our election does not mean the voters should be punished for a decision that we had no control over! Howard Dean also phucked us over, big time!! The fact remains that Hillary won Florida!
What is dangerous is to put someone in the White house that has known ties to some pretty scary people and organizations, and one of them being a priest is even more frightening. Obama put himself at the bottom of the teeter totter and for that reason and others he should drop out of the race, IF he really loves his country!!
Kims2cool asks…
Statistically, how can Hillay Clinton overtake Obama? <<<<
Well first she would have to get Michigan and Florida counted. That would cut Obama’s current lead to about 60 delegates. She has to have a decent showing in Oregon and smack Obama in Kentucky like she did in West Virginia. She has to show well in Montana and South Dakota (although there are so few delegates in those two states it wouldn’t make too much of a difference but it would be good for appearances), and she has to dominate in Puerto Rico. If all that gets accomplished she will probably cut Obama’s lead to…oh….maybe 35 delegates. From there she has to cut a deal with the Superdelegates. One thing to remember about the Superdelegates is that they are not officially locked in until the convention. They can switch sides all they want between now and then. HOWEVER, the odds of her pulling off all of the above are slim. I’d give her one chance in 10.
DDG-56 ‘08
What I don’t get is the Obamabots keep yelling about the rules….well the rules say super delegates can pick ANYONE they think would be better for the general election! So how can that be Hillary “stealing” the election when it’s the rules!!!! Add the fact more “people” have cast a vote for Hillary than BO! The caucuses are a joke and in no way represents the will of the people! Actual votes should count (example Texas)! I don’t give a hoot about the math, I care that the PEOPLE prefer Hillary! Take heed DNC! Force this left nut liberal down our throats and you will lose the core of the party! Leave it to the dems to screw up a sure win!
I found this in the New York Sun Paper (written by a Black man)
Ken Blackwell – Columnist for the New York Sun
It’s an amazing time to be alive in America. We’re in a year of firsts in this presidential election: the first viable woman candidate; the first viable African-American candidate; and, a candidate who is the first front-running freedom fighter over 70. The next president of America will be a first.
We won’t truly be in an election of firsts, however, until we judge every candidate by where they stand. We won’t arrive where we should be until we no longer talk about skin color or gender. Now that Barack Obama steps to the front of the Democratic field, we need to stop talking about his race, and start talking about his policies and his politics.
The reality is this: Though the Democrats will not have a nominee until August, unless Hillary Clinton drops out, Mr. Obama is now the frontrunner, and its time America takes a closer and deeper look at him. Some pundits are calling him the next John F. Kennedy. He’s not. He’s the next George McGovern. And it’s time people learned the facts.
Because the truth is that Mr. Obama is the single most liberal senator in the entire U.S. Senate. He is more liberal than Ted Kennedy, Bernie Sanders, or Mrs. Clinton. Never in my life have I seen a presidential frontrunner whose rhetoric is so far removed from his record. Walter Mondale promised to raise our taxes, and he lost. George McGovern promised military weakness, and he lost. Michael Dukakis promised a liberal domestic agenda, and he lost.
Yet Mr. Obama is promising all those things, and he’s not behind in the polls. Why? Because the press has dealt with him as if he were in a beauty pageant.. Mr. Obama talks about getting past party, getting past red and blue, to lead the United States of America. But let’s look at the more defined strokes of who he is underneath this superficial ‘beauty.’
Start with national security, since the president’s most important duties are as commander-in-chief. Over the summer, Mr. Obama talked about invading Pakistan, a nation armed with nuclear weapons; meeting without preconditions with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who vows to destroy Israel and create another Holo -caust; and Kim Jong II, who is murd_ering and starving his people, but emphasized that the nuclear option was off the table against terrorists – something no president has ever taken off the table since we created nuclear weapons in the 1940s. Even Democrats who have worked in national security condemned all of those remarks. Mr. Obama is a foreign-policy novice who would put our national security at risk.
Next, consider economic policy. For all its faults, our health care system is the strongest in the world. And free trade agreements, created by Bill Clinton as well as President Bush, have made more goods more affordable so that even people of modest means can live a life that no one imagined a generation ago. Yet Mr. Obama promises to raise taxes on ‘the rich.’ How to fix Social Security? Raise taxes. How to fix Medicare? Raise taxes. Prescription drugs? Raise taxes. Free college? Raise taxes. Socialize medicine? Raise taxes. His solution to everything is to have government take it over. Big Brother on steroids, funded by your paycheck.
Finally, look at the social issues. Mr. Obama had the audacity to open a stadium rally by saying, ‘All praise and glory to God!’ but says that Christian leaders speaking for life and marriage have ‘hi jacked’ – hi jacked – Christianity. He is pro-partial birth abortion, and promises to appoint Supreme Court justices who will rule any restriction on it unconstitutional. He espouses the abortion views of Margaret Sanger, one of the early advocates of racial cleansing. His spiritual leaders endorse homosexual marriage, and he is moving in that direction. In Illinois, he refused to vote against a statewide ban – ban – on all handguns in the state. These are radical left, Hollywood, and San Francis co values, not Middle America values.
The real Mr. Obama is an easy target for the general election. Mrs. Clinton is a far tougher opponent. But Mr. Obama could win if people don’t start looking behind his veneer and flowery speeches. His vision of ‘bringing America together’ means saying that those who disagree with his agenda for America are hijackers or warmongers. Uniting the country means adopting his liberal agenda and abandoning any conflicting beliefs.
But right now everyone is talking about how eloquent of a speaker he is and – yes – they’re talking about his race. Those should never be the factors on which we base our choice for president. Mr. Obama’s radical agenda sets him far outside the American mainstream, to the left of Mrs. Clinton.
It’s time to talk about the real Barack Obama. In an election of firsts, let’s first make sure we elect the person who is qualified to be our president in a nuclear age during a global civilizational war.
Subject: Kind of scary, wouldn’t you think Remember–God is good, and is in time, on time — every time
According to The Book of Revelations the anti-christ is:
The anti-christ will be a man, in his 40s, of MUS_LIM descent, who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal….the prophecy says that people will flock to him and he will promise false hope and world peace, and when he is in power, will destroy everything. Is it OBAMA??
Racism has come far more from Obama’s camp and fellow travellers in this race. We have the Rev. Wright (and the new guy who took his place is worse) and the who Black Libertion Theology with Obama’s pledge therein to Africa first and the Black Agenda first, Black Panthers, Michele Obama, Dual citizenship of Obama in Kenya and his support of his cousin Odinga (LUO) who tried to force Islam and Muslim law on an 85% Christian Country with Obama’s help. Then there is the parade of connections to our Islamic enemies in Hamas, PLO, even Saddam Hussein himself through his buddy Auchi. Khalidi, Rezko, etc. The list goes on. His only legislation of any size is a blll to take money from your wallet for poverty (not here at home) in Africa!
When the whole muslim world is cheering him on and sending money to Ameican Mosques to be distributed to individuals as contributions, and support coming from too large a percentage of blacks in our own country, white Americans should be very frighened. He ain’t Collin Powell or Condi Rice (I’d vote for either in a heartbeat). Hillary would be ahead if we knew then what we know now, but it may be too late to stop his nomination.
Since 90%+ blacks are voting for Obama for no reason other than they want a Pres. who “looks like me” what’s good for the black goose is good for the white gander! All you “typical white folks” Obama despises still have the fate of the country in your hands. If 90% of whites vote for Hillary now (way to go WV) and if that doesn’t work vote for McCain in November we can stop this racist man from winning. When blacks vote for Obama it is called “identity politics” when whites vote for whites it is called “racism.” Down with the double standard.
Unite! Vote White!!!
NOBAMA
Sadly Obama has torn the democrates into, lets not give him a chance at America!!!!!It is just to risky and scary what his change might be!
First let me state the obvious, political blog comments using RACE baiting as an issue for debate are DISGRACEFUL! I will vote for McCain (warts and all) over Obama this November. Personally, I think Obama’s brain is fried! He is one mixed-up individual. Having been born to a white mother (a declared atheist) and a black father (Muslim) six months after his parents were married isn’t exactly what I would call typical. Soon thereafter his father deserts Obama and his mother. He basically bounces around for years, uses hard drugs and to his credit later obtains a great education. He marries a very dominating woman that harbors an obvious and bitter contempt for “America and whites.” Obama then locates in Chicago and is required to pass inspection from various black “leaders” to gain community acceptance. The Obamas then join a church with a racist minister and are totally indoctrinated. Sadly, they both use very poor judgment and expose their young daughters to their racist minister’s sermons! Being a fabulous speaker, Obama enters politics and now runs for President on a message of CHANGE. But what kind of change? Who really knows…SCARY stuff! Obama is inexperienced, exhibits poor judgment in a number of areas and associates himself with “known” undesirables. Further, the media and his party have essentially given him a free pass and to date he lacks proper vetting. Simply put…Obama is not qualified to become our next President! And I repeat, I think Obama’s brain is fried! Vote McCain or Hillary ‘08!
with Fl. & Mi clinton leads by 29,471 votes
If Americans knew before super tuesday what they know today clinton wins by a landslide.
The peoples choice is clinton
There are 2 candidates that have a chance to make it to the whitehouse, clinton and McCain, the Dem. party needs to decide which of the 2 they want.
10 million Dems will vote for McCain
OB cant win FL or MI or swing states.
If OB is the nominee you will see the largest Dem. vote for a republican candidate in the history of the US.
You do the math
OBAMA = REV. WRIGHT = RACIST, BIGOT, HYPOCRITE!
OBAMA = AYERS = ANTI-AMERICAN, TERRORIST
OBAMA = TONY REZKO = CORRUPT, CHEAT, IMMORAL, LOWLIFE SCU^^BAG
OBAMA = LOUIS FARRAKHAN = ANTI-AMERICAN, MUSLIM
Therefore
OBAMA = ARROGANT, RACIST, BIGOT, HYPOCRITE, ANTI-AMERICAN MUSLIM TERRORIST, CORRUPT, IMMORAL, CHEAT, LOWLIFE SCU^^BAG !!
MICHELLE OBAMA = RACIST, BIGOT, ANGRY, NO HOPE, B!TCH !!
Conclusion: OBAMA = DISASTER FOR AMERICA !!!!!!
Barack Obama is fighting to DENY our right to vote here in America, while our U.S. troops are fighting to DEFEND the right to vote in Iraq!
America needs a president who will DEFEND our rights, not DENY them!
Stand up for Florida and Michigan! Stand up for your fellow Americans!
Michigan: Tell Obama to go home – he’s not welcome there!
Obama is trying to take away our right to vote – that’s not the kind of “change” America will tolerate!
FIRST O-SA-BAMA SAID THE FLAG PIN REPRESENTS EVIL AND OPPRESSION, HE REFUSES TO WEAR IT.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmHtGQq-z_Y&NR=1
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccbPVMBKQpA&feature=related
FORCED TO WEAR THE FLAG PIN
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUW1-oilDIc
Wearing a flag lapel pin, Sen. Barack Obama emphasized his patriotism and support for a strong and humane military Monday, while Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton implored West Virginians to sustain her hopes of somehow denying him the Democratic presidential nomination.
NOW, HE NEEDS TO GET VOTES, HE WEARS IT FOR THE CAMERA AND FAKE HIS PATRIOTISM.
Just like the Wright drama, first he lied he never heard of wright’s hateful sermon, then he said he had heard it before, then he denied having heard it before. In the end, he PANDERS and said he have heard it and was very very “outraged” – ACTING FOR THE CAMERA!!
THIS IS THE BIGGEST POLITICAL PANDERING I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!
Obama is nothing more than a PUPPET of the extreme Left Anti-american groups.
Michelle Obama – Wife, never was proud of her country prior to obama winning primaries.
REV. WRIGHT – Racist, anti-american, “God D@^^^ America”.
TONY REZKO – Slumlord, corrupt lowlife c0ckr0ach
AYERS – Unrepentent Terrorist, obama’s good friend.
BLACK PANTHER – Left wing, racist thugs.
Louis Farrakkhan – Anti-American, racist Left Wing radical Muslim. Leader of Nation of Islam.
Oprah – Rich, racist, very liberal celebrity.
ACLU – Far Left Liberal Anti-American group.
Moveon.org – Far Left Liberal group.
Michael Moore – Far Left liberal fat p!g.
Al Sharpton – Far Left racist Looser!
John Kerry – Very Rich, Far Left liberal politician, chronic FLIP-FLOPER, Bigtime LOOSER!
Ted Kennedy – Far Left liberal politician, bigtime LOOSER!
kims2cool – And why shouldn’t Fl and MI be counted. Obama is the only one who campaigned in FL, and he and Edwards also campaigned in MI to get people to go to the polls and vote Uncommitted and there were a lot of them. Just because your guy will probably lose in both these states doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be counted. I didn’t hear you spouting anything when there was the fraud going on Ind. Everyone saw right through that, but it was quickly covered up. We need to get real here and elect the best person for the job and that is SENATOR HILLARY CLINTON.
I just heard from Mr. Obama that he has visited 57 states since he started his run for the Presidency. It took me awhile to figure out how he could visit 57 states when the U.S. is only comprised of 50 but I think I figured it out. Upon his election Mr. Obama will offer statehood to Veneuzela, North Korea, Iran, Kenya, Darfur, Syria, and West Virginia
Mr. Obama was also speaking in MO yesterday, when he stated that too many Arab liguists were being tied up in Iraq and that there were not enough Arabic linguists to satisfy the need for them in Afghanistan. It was later pointed out to Mr. Obama that the Afghans do not speak Arabic. I guess this means the war can continue as planned.
Sometimes I don’t know whether to laugh or cry.
with or without florida doesnt matter anymore, just academic. Its a different game now, they are not attacking each other anymore, whats the point… and in polls Obama getting ahead of Mccain. Its fun to watch McCain showing his green proposals, and GOP pundits getting angry, seems he cant shake Bush legacy off him, logic since most polcies he voted for and wants to continue. People are fed up being fooled by Rep. party, even congressional elections they are loosing, which were just recently solid Republican. Is almost symbolic, grand old party, and an old guy who has no clear platform what to run for; if he does one thing , his own party says he frais from the principles, does another thing he is a flip-flopper. Rep. party thought using using Rev. wright and pelosi would clinch the local elections for the House. Seems that negative populism doesnt work anymore, and now they are empty handed and can only offer a halve baked proposal on the issues. It was about to happen, recession, unpopular president, McCain supported same policies, age-ism is a large issue- people want some positive vibes instead of grumbling and stumbling, lot to do with perception. GOP in real danger of a walkover come fall, especially in House and Senate elections. McCain doesnt have the profile to be his own man, attached to Bush and GOP who are just unpopular at the moment, so time to send them back where they came from, and ponder in years and years to come some kind of come back. Can’t see that happening anytime soon, thanks to Bush and weak old candidate.
Obama does not even know how many States we have in our great Country, according to Obama there is 57, surprise to me. What a jerk A. Crap my 1st grader knows how many States is in the US.
GOP and McCain camp must be and are really worried, and their recent mistakes and failures did not help much. Last months he kep a low profile and got ok polls results, but now the result is obvious he is loosing points in the polls. There will be more scrutiny; and some are really disturbing which probably won’t help at all; extreem right wing foreign policy advisors- James Woolsey for one who is with a group that wants to remap the world, and exclude russia and china, really bizarre and dangerous; halve baked economy proposal; no viable solution to social security and health care; no release of Cindy’s tax return, to show if there is any conflict of interest, since MCain was always once in favour of openness and accountability; not denouncing his problematic religious ‘friends’, leaders, but actually still happy for their support; his fli-flops on major issues like abortion, gun laws, tax cut etc,; his alliance with most Bush policies; his age and questions about his health; his questionable support of wealthy donors in Arizona who got a windfall in development assets through his interference and help; furthermore a fractured party with religious conservatives and republicans who support small government and want a reduction in militarism abroad, and where McCain doesnt seem much to offer to them. On top of that a lackluster fundraising, unpopular War in Iraq and concerns about economy- he needs some luck and sustained consistency and a good narrative, since uptill now it has been quite; cant see how this old guy can turn things around or who wants to vote for him, some will vote for him as a protest vote but have no idea what he stands for or who his advisors are. Doesn’t matter, getting boring, come fall McCain will be alongside the loser club.
As I read a lot of your comments it has becomes crystal clear to me that some of you will not vote for a black man no matter what, so stop making up excuses as to why you wont vote for obama and show some back bone and be honest, its ok, this is the world we live in for now, but with each generation we become more open minded and soon race will not be a issue.
Prof.Chaos: we heard that to about Arabic.! My husband laughing so hard he darn near ran a stop sign. Ha ha.
If you get a chance listen to Rev Manning of Harlems’ speech this weekend. He called Wright, Obama and Oprah the Trinity of hell among other things such as Hore, pimp etc.
If the dems had the same nomination as the reps Hillary would have had this nom a long time ago. But the Clintons & McCulif were part of setting up this system (not the Supers) thinking she would be annointed but they got hoisted are there own petard.
Obama didn’t even give a loser speech last night. Didn’t want to look like a loser. He has lost his momentum. The dem hacks are going nuts. they know Ob can’t get the states needed in GE and also want to be rid of the Clintons. Then I hear them out saying they have two strong candidates. ha! They people are voting AGAINST one or the other in this primary.
Can’t wait for more Spin.
how come its ok for Ob side to tout the black vote but if HIllary touts the white vote its racist??
Ob equates the housing “crisis” to 1929. Idiot. Old Joe Kennedy helped cause the crash of 29.
Karen -
Here are 6 plausible reasons to vote for Obama, followed by the 5 reasons I would not vote for Obama or Clinton:
1) He’s black.
2) People want to pay more taxes and higher taxes.
3) People want the government to enact legislation that absolves them from the personal responsibilities associated with making their own way in life.
4) People want other people to pay for their perceived misfortunes.
5) People want a global strategy of passivist isolationism and appeasement that will lead, ultimately, to a world war scenario as was the case with the presidencies of Woodrow Wilson (D), and Franklin Delano Roosevelt (D).
6) People want to continue with the energy strategy of buying from openly hostile governments, thereby unnecessarily increasing the cost of fuels and transportation so goods and services cost more for the end user.

My 5 reasons for not voting for Obama or Clinton:

5) I DO NOT want a global strategy of passivist isolationism and appeasement that will lead, ultimately, to a world war scenario as was the case with the presidencies of Woodrow Wilson (D), and Franklin Delano Roosevelt (D).

Hope this helps.
The blacks won’t vote for a black with an R behind his name. Blacks were first asking if Ob was black enough. You want to look for racists look to your own party. Why should any one want to vote for a lefty radical with 1 year in the Senate just Because HE says he’s black. Oh, yes he did.
Someone refresh my memory – which month is White History Month?
Right on Founder Guy.
Some people dont’ know how to vote with their heads instead of emotions.
The blacks and liberals cry racism on anyone that has an opinion different from theirs – it is because they say it is. They exempt themselves from the same criteria to which they hold others.
It’s hypocritical, it’s disingenuous, and it’s untruthful.
What it IS, is about the acquisition of power over anything else.
ya, where are White colleges, white miss america, White entertainment t.v. White quotas etc?
If Sharpton skates on his tax cheating I’m not paying mine either. We should all refuse so its fair for us too.
Kathy WI -
I’ve noticed that when liberals on these blogs are affronted with reason and rational thought, they flee elsewhere to post their emotional rants.
Americans are, by and large, moderate to conservative when it comes right down to it.
Complaining about taxes and high prices, then voting for a liberal democrat, is nonsensical. They won’t do it.
When faced with the realization that a weakened national defense exposes not only us, but our civilized friendly allies and mutual economies to radical islam, they won’t be able to vote liberal democrat either.
More and higher taxation directly correlates to loss of personal liberty, while enriching those who did nothing for the enrichment – that’s called theft. Again, voting for a liberal democrat makes no sense here.
Take heart. When the democrats finish flogging themselves, and determine a nominee, the ensuing mono e mono campaign will reveal the undesirable national socialist nature of today’s democrat party.
If it’s Obama, well, he simply hasn’t the demographic base to win.
If it’s Clinton, she’ll be a more formidable opponent, but in essence she’s in the same political quadrant as Obama. She’s just a more effective deceiver.
I’m not a McCain fan, but there’s no way I’d vote myself a pay cut (higher taxes), a personal responsibility cut, and a security cut by voting for a liberal democrat.
obama is sending out pamphlets in KY with crosses, etc behind his face. Now, he’s running as the messiah again. Man, when Huckabee had a xmas card the left stream media and dems went bonkers.
Now he’s saying he dosent need the jewish vote. So, add that to the ones he says he doesn’t need, hispanic, whites, working sector. Guess he thinks he’s just going to be annointed. haha.
I heard today that less than 50% of the people now have land lines. Another reason not to take much stock in polling. They are using cells, mobiles, and telephone thru their cable systems. I am one of the latter.
WI was an early state and went OB. Now “polling” has found it has turned red again. Must be because so many of us learned so much more since the early voting. Wonder about the electorate in other early states.
did senator hillary clinton , take math in school ? ??? ????????? can she count ???? senator barack obama is way ahead of her !!! i do not want a weak woman in charge of our country ????? she should of serve some time in the military and learn how to take charge…!!!! all she has shown me ….is that she does not follow rules… every day she wants to change them for her advantage. and she has no money for her campaign… no one wants to give money if you are losing..???!!!!! so she has to pay for her own campaign… yes…. she talks excited ….. why not … ??????? she has to do some thing .. since she is losing… she will do what ever she can…. even split the party…. for her benefit !!!!!! she is all about herself….. and the people around her tell her to keep going … why not ???? she is paying them….. who doesn’t want to get paid ?????????? vote (President) senator Obama… thanks ..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Afghans speak Arabic??? He better get back to that AF. Action class.
First and foremost I could care less about the race matters. I just want fair reporting. And by the tone of this blog since my last post I see we are not the melting pot we believe. I was/am not voting for Obama not because he is not worthy but I don’t know if he can really lead the nation and I know he has a wife and two kids that he needs to be alvie to support. And someone mentioned white history month, last time I checked in the history books of most schools every month is white history month. H$ll, people come out from under oppression and you act like that is enough and they have been done a freaking favor. Please, spare me the B.S. about white this and white that, the problem is most don’t want to celebrate the culture of another especially when their culture has been the dominate one for hundreds of years. And I am a proud American period, although black. Not conservative, liberal nor any other stupid titles used to divide. I see I hit a nerve by just asking for fair and balanced reporting and I noticed instead of speaking on the issue I raised, it went right back to Rev. Wright. Funny how that happens, huh?
marta rivera
You would rather have a weaker candidate and maybe he should serve some time, but then again with his attitude he wouldn’t last 5 minutes in the military, and if you are such a math expert try adding all the votes and you will see hillary has had more votes cast for her than any other candidate.
The people have spoken
If any other candidate had advisors go talk to hamas, they would be out in a heartbeat
This jerk has had an entire campaign of double standards
out with the arab
And for all you high and mighty folks, the last time I check, every politician lies to get into office so…..Believe thou wilst, but it is mostly lies and most of what they promise will never get done.
By the way, I like how the scholarly on here resorted to calling people out of their names, man must be something in the water round there. (LOL)
The comments I have been reading are chilling to me, I see RACISM is alive and well. but no matter what your opinions are, if GOD wants Obama to be our next president he will be and there is NOTHING ANY OF YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT In Jesus name

If only you could see the irony in your statement. I’m for Obama too, but man oh man. Racism = ignorance. Thinking that god is controlling everything we do also = ignorance. I must agree that the racism is really amazing though.
I think Mccain is the only choice we have, but I still pray that we are not so divided that we elect a man with radical muslum ties, or even support him. I don’t care if he is green so don’t call me a racist……..
Slavery was a huge mistake.
Look what it got us into now.
Yeah, now that disease called stupidity that was brought over here from Africa is spreading across the country.
Yeah, it stinks to pay the price for things you had nothing to do with?
In all sincerity, the absolute worst racism (hostility, nastiness) comes FROM Obama supporters themselves.
Romney is the perfect choice for mccain! the math which everyone talks about leads to Romney!
McCain Romney 2008!
no one gets regan republicans in california like romney!
i used to care about romney being a mormon but after the wright thing it is really not an issue anymore. go get em mitt!

Ok if you say so. Most people hate to look in the mirror and see what is looking back at them. So sad.

Please enlighten on the nature of these radical muslum ties as you say.
My internet is really slow today, so I am having trouble in seeing the posted videos. However, I did see part of your interview on FOX and wanted to comment on Hillary’s “overtime” viewpoint. Hillary does have a right to continue on in this race as long as she has the money and backing to do it. However, no matter what her comments about sticking it out until it is no longer viable for her to do so, seems like more wishful thinking than solid evidence. In actuality, Hillary is loaning her campaign money and in debt for several thousand dollars and she cannot keep up with Obama for fundraising. Her super delegates are peeling off from her because they see what she fails to: her message is not appealing to the constituency that it needs to. It is lackluster, it does not inspire, and only builds upon the dissatisfaction of others as a platform. Hillary’s agitation in creating a racial divide in this race have come back to haunt her and I saw her apology for her “white working class” comment. Of course she knew that comment would create racial tension! For all of Hillary’s arrogance, she is NOT stupid! I think an apology was in order and that she should stop this type of rhetoric and stick to the facts–she is having trouble herself in capturing the youth and African American vote.
The endorsement of John Edwards yesterday was more clarification that Hillary is continuing to experience eroding support. Edwards represents the working class voter that Hillary has been getting, so far. However, with an Edwards endorsement to Obama won’t his supporters now be more likely to back Obama? One has to ask, why can’t Hillary deliver the knock-out punch to finish this race and get the nomination? What are voters seeing about HER that they don’t like? Also, why are high profile political figures NOT choosing Hillary? If they know her so well and understand her political arguments, why are they choosing Obama even in the wake of Rev. Wright? It is because they DO know Hillary and what she represents and they don’t think she is qualified for the top job in the country. The American public should also recognize this fact and take a second look at Hillary and HER past. Hillary would be wrong for the country and take us down the path of a socialized government.
