    Well in that case the same can be said of Obama's comment about some people being bitter clinging to their guns and religion and having an antipathy towards those who are different.

    That's a true statement.

    It is all about timing, context and plain foot in mouth by Hillary. She just can't seem to keep her foot out of her mouth. Maybe some Hillary voters will vote for McCain, but not as many as you think. Stop watching Fox news and do some real research on your own. The pundits at Fox are very wrong, as usual. BTW...Obama STILL leads McCain in the polls. Sorry to disappoint you. And his lead is getting stronger and stronger.

    Most of the things that the candidate say are truthful as for as they know. All of them from the beginning of the USA have said things that were not well research, that they thought were true....

    The why is called Politics.

    And let's face it HC is fighting for a whole new ideal for America. A lady in the White House who is not sleeping with the President..(not counting ex-presidents)

    Your last statement about HC supports going for McC if O gets it ...I believe you are soooooooo right. I am an Independent, redneck Harley rider and you are talking about me.

    Give me an AMEN for HC

    You are absolutely right altho this isn't really a question so much your political editorial.

    Gloria Steinum in a remarkable editorial puts it all in prospective....the bias against women is so great that in a Nation of 50% gender mix and less than 20% black mix a woman has to claw to get her parties nomination. That of course discounts all republicans and those disenfranchised with the Clintons in total. I am NO Gloria follower but her on point arguement is profound.

    Still the media is bent on forceing this woman OUT even tho no one has the required numbers to "win". Its almost like they are bullying her "OUT".

    AND when it comes to the back room politics of the Democratic party I am unconvinced that that wily wench may not be able to out politic BOREaxs for the super delegates final vote....remember they are "committed" not voted. AND if BOREaxs can't swing the vote on the first count you may well see mass defection to the only other standing nominee who might be able to win the second count. HC ain't stupid and should not be counted out until the fat lady sings.

    Hillary is a corrupt, power-mongering whore. If she was a woman worth talking about, she would have divorced Cheating Bill in 1998, and run for President in 2000. Probably would have won on sympathy votes. Instead, she proved that she is nothing more than a corrupt, evil female dog who thinks the ends justify the means.

    If you can't understand that at the very least what she said was in monumentally poor taste then I'm not going to try and explain it.

    Hillary doesn't have a chance because she lost. It has nothing to do with her being a woman, it has to do with the fact that she ran an ineffective campaign. As for Obama there is nothing to indicate that he can't beat McCain.

    Good Point !!!

    WHY SHOULD IT BE ????

    IF ... Obama ... AND his PASTORS ... CAN SAY ... "THE TRUTH" ... THAT ... NO ONE ... WANTS TO HEAR ...

    WHAT ... is wrong ... with ... WHAT ANYONE ... else says ???

    I ... have no problem voting for a person - black, female, white, etc. - as long as that person is the BEST candidate for the position of THE President of THE United States of America !!!

    HOWEVER ... Obama is NOT the Best person to be THE President of THE United States of America.

    Hillary is Pro-American enough to try to do what is best for the country.

    Obama is ANTI-American enough to TAX US to HELP the REST OF THE WORLD ... BEFORE he takes care of THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA !!!

    .

    IF ... OBAMA was a WHITE man WITH the SAME LACK of Qualifications, HE would have been - LAUGHED - out of the Nomination process in the BEGINNING !!!!

    The Followers of the Socialist / Communist / Liberal ... AND ... ANTI-American Nominee will NEVER accept that HE AND THEY CAN actually make mistakes and CAN be wrong !!!

    Obama Supporters do not want to see, hear, and / or understand the TRULY Intelligent Answers and / or Questions that are NOT - FOR - Obama !!!

    Governors have a hell of a lot more experience "managing" than ANY - JUNIOR - Senator.

    Obama did NOT even finish his FIRST TERM in office !!!

    I am for OUR America AND OUR Children's Future !!!!

    That is WHY ... WE ... NEED to make sure that EVERY American KNOWS about Senate Bill S.2433

    OBAMA wants to END WORLD POVERTY on YOUR NICKEL AND SURRENDER THE United States to THE United Nations.

    Please, SEARCH the phrase above !!!! ... OR the Actual Senate Bill Number - S.2433 !!!

    .

    I am AGAINST the Socialist / Communist / Liberal ANTI-American - OBAMA !!!!

    Democrats generally believe in heavy fines for honest work, while rewarding sloth and indulgence.

    Do YOU think that people should be able to do absolutely nothing productive and get government hand-outs for sloth and indulgence - healthcare, tobacco, alcohol, drugs, STDs, etc. ??

    Do YOU want to have YOUR MONEY TAKEN from YOU and YOUR FAMILY to FINANCE these people ???

    .

    I have NOTHING against helping the elderly and the young.

    I DO have a problem SUPPORTING the able-bodied people that do NOT want to get off of their butts and EARN an honest living - instead of "FEEDING" off of hard working citizens.

    AND they teach their children, and their children's children HOW to FEED off of government programs !!

    Just realize ... that those of us that ACTUALLY have to work for a living, are getting tired of PAYING for the Democrats idea of HELPING.

    Shouldn't MANDATORY Urine Tests be REQUIRED of people that are requesting "government handouts"?

    IF you are on LEGAL prescription drugs, then you will not have a problem proving it !!

    .

    CHANGE is ALL that you will get back from the Socialist/Communist/Liberal Democrats, when they TAKE your hard earned paycheck from you to give it to able bodied people, "FEEDERS", who do NOT want to get off of their butts and actually get a job !! Our wonderful government hand-out programs !!

    Please, TRY to HOPE in one hand and SPIT in the other hand!

    Which one is filling up the fastest ??

    .

    We need to make sure that the person that represents AMERICA is PRO-AMERICA !!!

    WE NEED to make sure that EVERY man, woman, and child, KNOW how ANTI-AMERICAN Obama and his Reverend(S) ARE !!!

    Would a CONTINUAL 20 years of "second hand smoke" have a negative affect on the other people in the area ??

    Would a CONTINUAL 20 years of "Anti-American Preachings" have a negative affect on the other people in the area ??

    John F. Kennedy, a Democrat, was sworn in as the 35th President of THE United States of America, at noon on January 20, 1961. In his inaugural address he spoke of the NEED for ALL Americans to be ACTIVE CITIZENS, famously saying, "Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country."

    Please NOTICE that it said DEMOCRAT - NOT Socialist and / or Communist Democrat !!

    It means this country is only as strong as the people in it. It means get off your a$$ and do something!!!

    .

    The Democratic Elite make the rules and then they change them for their convenience !!

    The Elite Democrats feel like THEY know better than YOU who would be the best person to run the country !!!

    By the People and For the People !!!

    I think that no matter what any of them say...it's always blown out of proportion by the press. People are entitled to make mistakes right?

    Everything that any of them says gets blowed out of proportion. Remember "clinging"? Remember "for the first time in my life"? Remember "punishment"?

    It's Hillary's term to take the fire. Stop whining.
