SHE IS TOXIC. IT IS A BEAUTIFUL THING TO WATCH HER AND HER DESPERATE CAMPAIGN IMPLODE !!!!!!

Yes, Mrs. Clinton outperformed Mr. Obama in big Democratic states crucial to a win in November, and drew huge support from working-class whites and Hispanics. But how much of that support was truly pro-Clinton and how much just anti-Obama?

Any U.S. Citizen 20 years old or younger in 2008 has never known a President that wasn't either a Clinton or a Bush. I'm not excited about either party's candidate although I'll vote for McCain if I vote at all. If nothing else good comes from this election, at least we will (hopefully) see the end of the Clinton - Bush era in American politics !

What a shame! The way Hillary has conducted herself in this primary will make it hard for women in the future. Her whining, back-biting, gender card playing, make the rules up as she goes, sore loser, unsportsmanlike conduct will for ever haunt all women in the future.

The Manchurian Candidate Becomes A Reality. God Help Us. Obama, whose father was a practicing Muslim and whose mother was a radical Marxist, has stated that his mother: "Was the dominant figure in my formative years; and, the values she taught me continue to be my touchstone in the world of politics". Common sense deductive reasoning suggests that Obama's rearing as a child, and his extended 20yr relationships, and obvious conformity, with anti-American fanatics such as Rev. Wright ( the Pastor of his church that promoted the doctrine of Louis Farrakhan ) , and Frank Davis and William Ayers, etc., etc., are in fact reflective of Obama's true psychological makeup. A conclusion rigidly re-enforced by Obama's San Francisco commentary denigrating folks from small-town America. Obama's affinity for questionable associates such as Tony Rezco raises a myriad of questions. Further, his increasingly frequent petulant responses to legitimate criticism is troubling. This man's refusal to wear an American flag lapel pin and to place his hand over his heart on the singing of our National Anthem are conditioned reflexes from his protracted association with disaffected elements in our society; visual images that Obama is certain to attempt to obfuscate in future campaign appearances; even though, he has openly admitted: "I didn't want to offend Muslims and others who don't like America.". Obama is our "home-grown" version of Hugo Chavez. Further, Michelle Obama's angry commentary directed at our country is telling. Fifty-seven (57) State Obama's comments that he would use U.S. Military Forces against Pakistan, a Nation with a sizable nuclear arsenal, and an ally in the war on terror, even without President Musharraf's permission; a Nation that he mistakenly believed to be Arab; his indecision/confusion as to whether Iran poses a serious regional threat; while in other commentary, stating that he would halt the U.S. military's development of advanced weapons systems demonstrates a profound ignorance of the geopolitical threat environment confronting America. His long-term subversive associations, and his immersion in seditious diatribe have indeed revealed Obama as the real-life Manchurian Candidate. Greg Neubeck

There has always been something strange and very artificial about Mrs. Clinton. Her demeanor could be described as contrived, or distant. her behavior as disingenuous, deceitful. Witness the weird laughter she exhibits when stressed in an interview. Her efforts to fool her viewers, listeners and voters have met with only limited success. She appears to get support only from angry feminists and from bigoted racists who have little choice. The rest of the public simply don't trust her. She didn't have to act the way she does. Her choice of these manipulative attitudes reveal her underlying underestimation of the perceptive powers of the American voter. This should be a lesson to other politicians: To be successful in politics as in life, it is always better to simply... be yourself.

If HRC ever gets to be in the ticket that will give much support to the opposite "major"candidate"HotHeadMac". I would not vote for either party. The alternative will be for the Progressive Party. They will not win the WH but a message will be sent that this country needs a third party.

It's politics as usual and we are the casualty . Hillary, will join forces with the DNC, who shamefully let her down. As her supporters we will be become secondary to her ambitious climb. As for me, I have to explain to my 15 yr old why she has a duty to vote in 3yrs and feels let down and betrayed by the conduct of the Democratic Party. Hopefully, the super delgates, becomes a thing of the past and are remaned "super poophers".

Nothing outrages me more than to hear Hillary tell the story over & over again about the 11 Year old boy who sold his bike & Video games turning the $22.00 he fetched over to Hillary. So I have a question when your worth 70, 80, 90 or 100 Million how does it feel to take an 11 year olds bicycle & video games. Does that make you proud. PS. Hillary is in this for the People not herself.

Boomer, Not only are you spot-on about 20-year olds, but think about this... We haven't seen a campaign in this country since 1976 (The year before I was born) where a Bush or Clinton wasn't either part of a general election ticket or a factor as a substantial primary candidate... You had to have been born in 1958 to have seen a ballot as a voter without a Clinton or a Bush! CW

Hillary and Bill please take your middle east millions of dollars and go far far away and stay, please. If a Republican had taken money anyways close to what Bill has done it would be called the 'crime of the century'. And how come the media does not cover the CLINTON lawsuit in California? Again, if that was a Republican being sued you would all hear about it hourly rather than yearly. The only thing worse than the Clintons is our, so called, main stream media.

Sore winners. "gneubeck" is correct in all aspects of the chameleon Obama. He preaches of change and if that is anything like his changes in points of view and blatant lies, this nation is in real trouble. Hillary is a strong woman with a firm grasp on reality. Obama and McCain are weak men without a clue. I'm voting Libertarian. Not crazy about Barr, but he's a heck of a lot more honorable and honest than the other two crooks (Obama the Rezko gopher and McCain a charter member of the Keating Five).

Question of the day

White House officials and Senate Democrats met in private three times last week to craft health care legislation. Do you think these discussions should be more public?
