Clinton's couldas, shouldas, wouldas

Why didn't the media use Barak Obama's middle name? They used Clinton's full name quite often.

Didn't someone once say "all hindsight is 20-20". I must admit that the theme of NBC and MSNBC
has been completly consistant. Always Anti-Hillary! iF have you have missed this networks coverage,
don' worry, you haven't missed a thing.

My question to the poster above me (Marie) is, who is Obama? Then you go on about how Hillary should have played the gender card, but is that really the best way to merit the confidence of voters? As for your comment about voting for McCain, it is just plain stupid. Any Hillary supporter who cares about the issues and policies of the candidates should by default vote for Obama because both democratic candidates have almost identical policies on the issues. These are diificult times for this country, people ought to vote on what's important for them instead of being caught in the racist/gender snares around this year's campaign. My 2 cents.

Please, get over it. She lost and she lost to a better candidate. Let's move on. And to think this is from a 40 year republican that is voting for Obama. That is if Obama picks anyone other than Hilly for a running mate.

Actually, this next term is not going to be an easy one no matter who gets into the White House. Further more, the fact that Obama is the winner and Clinton is fundamentally out fo the race the Democratic party is split and will probably remain that way. I don't see Hillary supporting Obama in an effective way that will unite the party and bring her voters to the Obama side. I see a lot of people in the Democratic middle swinging to a more moderate candidate in this election, voting McCain. With the downslide of Obama's recent primary elections and the negative associations that shadow Obama's persona it is hard to imagine that he will win this upcoming election. The fact that McCain is 72 years of age means that he will be a one term President and within four years Hillary could be the next President. If Obama gets in then Hillary is finished...so just on that thought I don't see her uniting the party vote to help Obama win. These dynamics will significantly hurt Obama's chances in the fall and lead to Obama's defeat.

Imagine the President's cabinet or staff with Reverend Wright, Father Pflager, Louis Farrakhan, Tony Rezco and William Ayers. I love America. Obama's long term friends and associates damn America. What kind of American supports these disgraceful bigots and traitors?

I watched Obama speech tonight... there is this question about Obama's wooing white voters especially white women, it seems to me if he keeps drawing these large rallies he will attract more whites and women to his campian. Hillary will loose these voters if she keeps up this ego tripping! She will be seen as one who can't seem to help bring the party together. Obama's message will grow as well as his rallies. Tonite there where 15,000 in the arena to hear his speech and 13,000 that could not get in. If this keeps happening the word will get out and when he comes to you state you will want to go see him and once you hear him you will be hook to the message of change. And that's where Hillary will lose her supporters.

Take away the Republican crossover vote and Hillary Wins! She is the stronger candidate, she carried all the States The Democrats need to win in November? Obama can't win without her!

Your story reflects the bias you have shown throughout this. You should feel really superior right now. After all,you did everything you could to play up Obama and down Clinton. You and the rest of the media bought into this big con. Too bad. Our country is doomed.

"Reading the obituary for the most anticipated candidacy in a generation." Most anticipated by whom? Personally, I was fed up with "Bubba Politics" when her husband left office. And what did he do for us? Let's see, he did make Monica Lewenski a star. After the attack on the twin towers in '93 we did lob some cruise missles at an abandoned a terrorist camp in Afghanistan. He decimated our military - watch "Blackhawk Down". Bill Clinton says he was the "reincarnation" of Jack Kennedy. Bill is so far removed from what Kennedy stood for, I can't count the ways.

As HRC said, politics is the way to power. When in power, one can destroy one's enemies. That's a wonderful way to look at the Presidential office, a means of destroying those that disagree with you. She went to NY where she knew she could win. Unfortunately, the citizens of NY tend to run on the Liberal side when it comes to politics and the did elect her, bless their little hearts. What does Hillary stand for? Whatever she thinks will get her elected - remember her vote for the war in Iraq? and now she's against it.

While I understand that most of our Presidents have not been nice people (comes with the job), I'm confident that HRC fills that part of the bill quite nicely. I see the ranting and raving from the Clinton supporters that Hillary didn't win her party's nomination. I wouldn't discount that this is another Clinton ploy to get the nomination. While I'm glad to see that the Democratic party had an Afro-American and a woman as their lead candidates, it's a shame it was these two candidates.

I realize I'll never change the minds of the Clinton supporters, and it's not my intention. We Americans should stand for what we believe in. However, keep in mind that the American people don't vote the President into office anyway (read the Constitution). Hopefully, those that do will select someone that agrees with the Constitution 100% as written, and I'm not convinced "Bubba Politics" follow the same advice.

Im not hot for either of them. Hillary went wrong with Bill in office. This Obama guy...what can I say, he wont even pledge his allegiance to the flag of the United States. McCain on the other hand is starting to look like the icing on the cake.. Idk..

I believe this great nation will crumble under Obama if he gets the seat in the presidents chair.

Bruce Pershan Please grow up.

Despite his long term associations and not unlike any friends and/or associates we may have ever had the fact remains..PEOPLE CHANGE AND SO DO THEIR VIEWS....Obama is for the betterment and advancement of all people. Some refuse to see or believe it but like it or not IT'S TRUE!!

We cannot control whether or not our friends, mature and grow or if they decide to stay STUCK ON STUPID...We do not have to agree with all their beliefs and if necessary, can choose to disassociate our self from them. Our friends, relatives and associates thoughts are ofen theirs and theirs alone..Stop trying to compare him to bigots and traitors. He is an individual, multifaceted and very humble.

**************************WHAT YOU EAT DON'T MAKE ME FAT*****************************

Remember the old adage..DIFFERENT STROKES FOR DIFFERENT FOLKS!!!

Ok, people should know that the Clinton's are trying to build a political dynasty like the Kennedy's and when she started her campaign for the nominee, she figured this would be a easy win because she had a few things going for her. Her husband Bill who's political ties would help her, her being already a senator from New York and a the large female (black and white) vote. Then when she seen that her opponent was a black man Obama, she thought I also have the "black vote" as well because of Bill success with black voters. But she did not count on the word "Change" and eight years of "Bushnomics"and the feel of the people. And lets not forget the whole "war" issue. Obama kept to what people wanted to hear "Change." Her campaign started out with a bang she getting the big white female vote and delegates and she started to win with the "Obama's in-exsperience" to be the president and to lead the country. But when he started to win some of the "key" states that she should have won, she started to go negative with the Rev. Wright issue, the Elitism issue, and the working white issue. But "Change" is what people wanted and needed. And as far as her whole on the large working white women issue when they start to go to Obama's campaign rallies and hear the "Change" message and how he is going to make these changes, they will see that his issues are the same issues that Hillary and John Kerry had. Now that he is the Democratic Nominee of President of United State something she could not get over maybe it has something to do with him being a "Black Man" and she thought when she started out that she had this thing in the bag and to find out she didn't and she lost to a "black man" not another "white male" or another "white female" candidate she don't want to believe or succeed to him. The Clinton's political ego's are very large and they still want the golden ring. So here we are now, she's still in the headlines and the fact that no one is focusing on the"History" making event of the century that a "Black" man is now trying to bring the country closer to the "Dream" that so many Whites, Afro Americans, Latinos, Asians and all other want. I am a 51 yr old black male and I'm glad that we're getting closer to the "Dream."

Because you feel you need to "tell people who they should vote for" is the same reason you paint everything as being either BLACK OR WHITE....The economy is in serious trouble. Who cares what WHITE America thinks...We want a President that is for "THE PEOPLE"......."ALL PEOPLE"

At McCain's age he could only fullfil one term..but of course you'd rather have that or BETTER YET KEEP TERRIBLE PRESIDENT BUSH....THAN STAND BEHIND A HUMBLE MAN OF INTERGRITY AND CHARACTER BARACK OBAMA.

A Black Man

Why is it that a Black Man can create a tiny piece called a filament (electric light - Lewis Latimer) that allows people to see in the dark?

But can't be seen fit to lead a country to the true light.

Why is it that a Black Man can create an instrument (clock - Benjamin Banneker) that all people use to tell time?
But people don't think it is time for him to run a country.

Why is it that a Black Man can design a place for the high authorities to meet in and a place for the president to live in (The Capital and the White House Phillip Reid (a slave) and Pierre L'Enfant)?

But not good enough to lead these meetings or live in himself.

Why is it that a Black Man was brilliant enough to do the first open heart surgery (Dr. Daniel Hale Williams) and show the world how to get and preserve plasma (Dr. Charles Drew)?

But not good enough to put a program in place where everyone can afford this surgery.

Why is it that a Black Man was creative enough to design an instrument (traffic light - Garrett Morgan) to bring multiple people (traffic) to a halt?

But not seen creative enough to design a plan to bring all this unnecessary and worthless fighting between countries.

Why is it that a Black Man could create the soles (shoes - Jan Matzeliger) that people walk on every day?

But not seen good enough to fill the shoes of a horrible president.

Why is it that a Black Man was smart enough and brave enough to teach himself (Fredrick Douglas and Thomas Fuller - both slaves) and others how to read, write and/or calculate math?

But not seen smart enough and bold enough to calculate a platform to be President to a country that sure needs another first by us.

So you see my Brothers and Sisters what I am saying is let us not forgot our past, which led us to our present and can definitely be the backbone to our future. We were good enough, smart enough, creative enough, and bold enough then, so let us all give Obama the chance to show that we are still these things and more. We all are as strong as our weakest link, so do not be that weak link that denies our people that chance to show we still can OVERCOME!

BARACK OBAMA----OUR NEXT PRESIDENT OF THESE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA !

LET US ALL CONTINUE PRAYING THAT THIS PRESIDENT WILL ADHERE TO AND BE LED BY GOD.
