Does anybody really give a hoot what Oprah, Obama,Clintons and the rest of the socilaist democtats do the their sheep?

Well,

Karl Rove advises to Obama how to fight Hillary, now Obama with the Oprah WHY..? There is a simple math working and most of them know this.
" If I'm a Republican and my vote to makes Obama win for Democratic Presidential nomination, there will be Republican President only in Nov. 2008″.

Decent responses by Hillary Clinton. She has the support of her family and I am sure there are thoughtful people who will vote for her.

I followed Oprah supporting the Obama mania, I can understand why people should go for a fun event although I am not sure why so many are so crazy to see Oprah, but its alright.

However, I am disgusted and scared to even consider that the entertainment business might control people's voting decisions. Obama being endorsed by Oprah is one thing, but using the force of entertainment to influence voting is scary. People need to be educated to be citizens and exert their constitutional vote..

Everyone needs to see how Oprah once did her best to sell the war to everyone! now is changed her mind. which is ok. but she should be the last one to criticize Clinton for her vote! shame on her!
just youtube Oprah supports war http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqVtRJeXxXM

It's great for HIllary to have her Mom and Chelsea with her!

Of course, if you can't get Barbara Streisand to compete with Oprah, why not get your Mom and Daughter to help regain some of the spotlight?

Asked if Chelsea would be making any comments at any point in the day, Clinton hesitated but stated simply, "I don’t think so. It's all about me, isn't it?"

Even if the story did contain much more about the Clintons, it was wonderful of CNN to show Oprah instead!

I think its is cool that Chelsea was with her mom today. I,m sure we will get to hear her speak before this is all over. I sure am looking forward to it. She seems like a very sweet individual from what I have heard.

Ask Not what Obama can do for your country….ask what Oprah can make Obama do for Oprah….well….make her an Ambassador of some foreign country. If Obama becomes President, it will be payback time for Obama.
We are not voting for Obama because he is for giving all the illegal aliens amnesty and hasn't done a darn thing of importance including supporting the release of the illegal imprisonment of our Border Patrol Agents Compean and Ramos. Free Compean and Ramos!

No contest. That would be a certain vote for Chelsea Clinton

I see the 'Hate-Bots' from HillaryLand are out in full force. That's what bothers so many people about her campaign and her supporters, they are so negative, and love to attack Barack. I guess that's what Hillary wants them to do, follow their leader. 'Do as I do, and do what I say.' Please continue your negative rants, because it helps voters decide between Hillary's 'attack politics', and Barack's 'Politics of Hope'. Keep it up, 'Hate-bots', we are gaining supporters with each hateful post. Thanks for you help.

I loved this article on the ticker. Great job CNN. Oprah has a huge gift in life, well, in truth she has many gifts but the one that stands out above all others is her gift of truthful "communication." When she speaks people know she is telling the truth and that the words are hers and hers alone, heck she even wrote the speech she gave today. I'm impressed. How many politicians write their own speeches?

I applaud Oprah's courage to get into-the-ring during this 08 Presidential campaign because she has nothing to lose. Her strength is admirable and I am proud to be a woman today, actually I am proud to be an American. Thanks CNN.

CNN you should be ashamed of yourself for not posting comments written by US citizens, or for removing comments you deem not in the best interest of your "candidate." You have become a network that is anti-democratic and this is deeply saddening. Oprah you make us proud to be American.

“But is it such a bad problem to have?” NOPE! Oprah the Queen of Day time talk actually throwing her support behind a candidate for president is definitely something. I mean she’s had interviews with presidential candidates before, but I don’t think she’s ever endorsed a candidate before.Good to see this move. I am impressed!

Unfortunately for Hillary, the Clintons plus Barbara Streissand are no match for Oprah. Coming at a time when Obama is taking a more commanding lead in Iowa, rising in New Hampshire, and opening a slight lead in South Carolina, it certainly appears that the Barocket is taking off again. This momentum could genuinely carry him to the nomination and probably to the White House.

Its OK for Hilary to bring Chelsea. I am pro-Obama not anti-Hilary, its unfair for the press to keep playing the partisan game. Let each candidate use their strategy to reach voters, without building negativity.

I never thought I would write about Obama cause I never thought I would vote for a black man..ever! But boy was I wrong. I watched this man in Califonia do his magic and I was hooked; I have followed him ever since. I tell all the people I meet to read his books and get to know him and listen to him and you’ll find out why this man–Barack Obama, Is the next president of the free world. For those who can’t tell..am a white boy who has dedicated his life to letting anyone I know get the wonderful experience of knowing the next president..Obama 08!
Chris..Ca.

Do you agree with Oprah that "Judgment Matters More Than Experience"?

http://www.youpolls.com/details.asp?pid=1255

.

Hillary should be ashamed. Her daughter and mother are no match for Oprah. Then when she gets them she doesn't or can't use them effectively.

I really don't see why it is such a big deal that Chelsea is on the campaign trail with her mother. Plenty of other candidates have family members, including children and grandchildren with them while they campaign. Chelsea is a private citizen and her presence on the campaign in no way makes her mother's campaign any more or less important.

I was already for Obama. But ironically, watching the C-SPAN coverage of the Des Moines event increased my respect for Oprah Winfrey. Her speech, which I understand was fully her own creation, was both inspiring and substantive. It leaves me thinking she must be a wonderful influence on the people who watch her television program– I don't. But wow! She's terrific!

How soon we forget…The woman who sold America James Frey’s A Million Little “Lies” Pieces will help sell Obama’s 15 Million Lies. The woman who invested in South Africa’s youth instead of US youth because they don’t “appreciate it” is a bit of an elitist. If she is done giving away cars she, She can take her Bobby Kennedy plan and underwrite health plan herself. Maybe we in the US don't appreciate our health enough. Flowery words does not a Bobby Kennedy make. Barak Hussein Obama will have to sit this one out. Can you just see it… I Barak Hussein Obama do swear to up hold the Consititution….. Yeah right!

Oprah Winfrey has done a lot for the society both domestic and abroad. She has built her career and credibility in the past 20 years FROM NOTHING. Its the typical case of "Zero to Hero" She has been through hardships like other victims, hence she can understand what people are going through. I GIVE GREAT REPECT TO THIS LADY.

Chalsea Clinton has been born with silver spoon in he from Day 1. What the hell did she know about pain and suffering? Came into this world with maids, butlers, chauffers, bodyguards, personal professionals from doctors to teachers. Living so comfortably like spoil breed. It makes me sick to even look at her together with her mother and grandmother. After all, THEY ARE THE SAME SPECIES!!!

So now, for the first time ever, the lady came out of her luxurious mansion to campaign in cold, cold Iowa. I'm sure those who've been doing this time after time would be oh so impressed. May I ask where she was in all those years when the good Iowa Democrats were waging their brave fight to ensure that their cause is carried on and their hopes live on? Now she decides to show up and tells everyone she voted for the Reps as much as she voted for the Dems. Was this supposed to floor anyone? Good for her but I am not at all impressed. But then again, my vote is for the other lady.

Senator Obama will be a great presidential candidate…in eight or nine years. Lately, due to his inexperience, he has consistently made ridiculous statements regarding foreign policy issues (particularly, but not exclusively, regarding Pakistan…though I guarantee a lot of folks will have forgotten those silly statements…). Whether we care about that fact will be a major factor in whether we Democrats vote for a president who is an experienced, forward-thinking person, or whether we vote for someone else.

By the way, such an experienced, forward-thinking person would be Governor Bill Richardson, but that's only my opinion.

nooooo dont think she can get hugs …4 vote's .. I don…t do you ..??

yeah right

Don't be a Racist! Vote Obama 08!

Oprah is definitely smitten with Barack Obama. I see an emotional connection rather than a professional stand. I will not think of her the same. I believe she has crossed the line with the endorsement.

It was great to see three generations of strong intelligent woman in IOWA Mrs. Clinton, her mother and daughter, We truly are in a momentous time, where a woman's potential has no limitations," "Hillary Clinton has already proven to a generation of women that there are no limits for success. She is driven by her passion for public service and her belief in the enormous potential of our country. Smart, capable and strong in her convictions, Hillary has transcended the dictates of what is thought to be possible for our time.
"Hillary is a powerful voice for change as we find our country at an important crossroads. Under her leadership, our country will regain its respect within the global community. She will prioritize issues of global climate change, universal healthcare and rebuilding a strong economy. After 8 long years, the public will once again have faith in their government.
"Another former first lady, Eleanor Roosevelt once wrote, 'In government, in business, and in the professions there may be a day when women will be looked upon as persons. We are, however, far from that day as yet.' More than 50 years later 'that day' is now upon us…and Hillary Clinton is ready to shatter through that glass ceiling for all women."

OPRAH has put woman (her viewers) back 50 years! Shame on you Oprah!
VOTE FOR CLINTON

Mr. Obama should considering puting Ms. Winfrey on the ticket. She has about the same qualifications and experience as he does.

In my view, Chelsea Clinton is no competition for Oprah, I think it is proper for all Americans to support Obama, because we need to stop the race issues in America, I love the Clinton's family, Hence, it is time to tried new ideas, so America can be great again.
Thank you,
Roger Monel

Chelsea Clinton is a bright, intelligent and hard working young woman. Let's face it though, her name helps, just as it helps Hillary. Without Bill being President, they both would be a blip on the radar screen.

Oprah, like Obama, has the ability to cross over lines of division and attracts a diverse audience never before seen in America. Both came from nothing, but Oprah's had a few more years to become the influence for good that she is in this world.

How these wildly successful events will influence voter choice is anyone's guess, but one thing is crystal clear. That first audience yesterday, the only one I was able to see, was a cross section of Iowa and America like no other. If Senator Obama and Oprah can do this for America, just think what Senator Obama can do for the world.

Yes, we have haters of every stripe supposedly backing other candidates. Disagreement and choice is what we are all about. However, do so in a positive manner especially you Democrats. Anything less and you give the GOP ammunition for the general election. The time is now and there is now time to waste.

Indeed, "Happy Days Are Here Again".

I think it was good for CNN to cut Obama off right after the Oprah speech. Obama is hardly news worhty. Give up the good work CNN!!!

"Hate-Bots from Hillaryland out in full force." Where? There are five comments on this site and yours is the only one mentioning Hillary! And given that there are only five comments on this topic, it appears the "Big O" hasn't drummed up much PR for Obama.

But I do have to agreew with the last commenter, "Oprah has never endorsed a candidate before." I think the reason for that is crystal clear.

Those having to use what they feel are the Big Name Celebrities to garner votes are those who are so lacking in any real substance or qualifications they grab at anything that will increase their ratings.

Joe Biden is the only candidate running on his true laurals, record, experience, and leadership qualities.
He doesn't resort to low blow attack tactics, fear mongering and celebrity support.

And given the last six years with Bush, I would expect experience, leadership qualities, and truth would be priority!

White House is not a place to train job, we need the President who knows politics and political view by experiences. Election is not a entertainment, it is serious future of our Country.

my friends will vote for Obama because he is black. I have many frinds who will vote for him simply because he is black, not because they agree with him.
This needs to be reported on the media because it's "REAL". It's ONLY because he is Black. period.

Well, Hillary, when is your goon squad going to sttach Oprah's integrity? I questions to the Clinton camp is of what significance is Chelsea and Hillary's mother? Who cares? Well, actually there is a question I'd like to pose to Hillary's mom: What do you think of you son-in-law's character and how do you feel about how he humiliated your daughter (if that's possible)?

Could you imagine what profound good it would do this country it we had Obama and Clinton team-up rather than pitting them against one another. Fresh ideas and hope with some classic, more standard diplomacy. What a team indeed. At the end of the day, we need change. Oprah, Bill,does it really matter? We just need someone from the left to "pay the bills" and "take care of the kids". Right now the United States is a like a psychologically and physically abused child that needs some behavior mod, counseling and a lot of TLC. Bottom line, just clean up the mess.

I would like to know Obamas' middle name and why it is never used?

Sincerely,

Jack D. Schutt

Oprah, what do you know about Barak? What do you know about politics? Your job has connection with the political campaign. Go back to your place in the little box. Barak has no experience. Andrew Young said that barack is still young. Barak, you are just a kid in the senate. Do not try to shopw nationally that you can do something. You can do nothing. It is going to be a drama in all three frontline states and just a waste of money. Save it for the poor people in Africa. We just celebrated international Aids day. Do something good….

It amazes how the media it trying to shove this guy down our throats. It's like a Britney Spears thing. I have looked at him for the last 4 years ago, I'm not interested.
I live in Georgia, and every African American person I speak to is voting Clinton. And I can assure you Oprah will not influence their vote.
I'm one of "those" baby boomers who cares about Social Secuity and health care, not who the press thinks I should vote for.

What a joke, like Oprah has more insight than any other American. Don't get me wrong I hope Hillary and Barack tear each other up and I am glad to see Queen Billary get some competition, it can only help my man Rudy, but to act like the Big O will influence the outcome seems like grasping to me. It is good theater though and since neither is going to be elected President it is all for show anyway.

What does Oprah, Newt Gingrich, Rudy, and Karl Rove have in common?

They all are cheerleaders for Obama.

Oprah is opening her big mouth for Obama ONLY BECAUSE OF HIS COLOR OF SKIN. She has made this into racial issue by coming in the picture.

"Change We Can Believe In"

That's an awesome slogan. With Obama's politics of Hope I really do believe there is a chance we can regain our lost stature in the world.

On both sides, this gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "Bought and paid for."

Who'd Brabra came out for?

Everyone needs to see this CNN expose. This is what the Clinton friends think!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=breSVtVYSmo

Thanks Oprah, she brings a level of creditability and admiration to anyone’s political campaign. However, she doesn’t influence my choice in a candidate for President, even though I believe America needs a President that will restore and heal this nation. Obama, in my opinion is that person. This comment if for all critics who talk about experience in running this country. What experience has George W. Bush demonstrated? If he can be President then I know anyone else can. God Help America…

Let's see what these people think about the issues. I am tired of the Clintons and their "bagging" everyone. Tell us (without flip flopping) what your plans are for America!

I think its funny when the Hillidiots bring up "experience" - funny…they didn't say that when Bill Clinton was being elected (with no foreign policy experience) - and I will remind you - a first lady is like a surgeons spouse - neither prepares you for the job….(if you are making an argument for for candidate…it has to at least make sense..unless you are talking to another HRC supporter…then it doesn't matter)

This is a capmpaign law loophole - it should be illegal to do this unless your time is worth less than $1ooo. This woman knows nothing about government but has millions of empty-headed followers who will vote for "her" candidate. Ridiculous.

Gee I shudder to think that America might elect a President based on a talk show host's recommendation! Oprah needs to spend far more time focusing on cleaning up her own affairs before she goes around promoting someone elses.

To those of you not old enough to remember that JFK was a womanizer who flaunted it openly in Jackie's face - would you have called Jackie coldly calculating or just stupid for staying with him? If she had decided to run for public office - would she have been belittled, ridiculed and accused of riding on her husband's coattails? JFK was perhaps the most inspiring President of the 20th Century DESPITE his faults and his weaknesses… but to paraphrase the late Senator Bentsen 'Obama is no Jack Kennedy' - AND anyone who knows the whole Kennedy history knows why there is no comparison.

As to any comparisons between Jackie and Hillary - Jackie WAS harshly criticized for daring to venture out on her own two feet… Same for Eleanor Roosevelt. Why does everyone insist that former First Ladies are supposed to just fade away silently into the sunset?!

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU DIMWITS - Women make up more than 50% of the American population. They gained the right to vote 87 yeas ago and they have a right for those voices to be heard. They have a right to run for President of the United States - And yes they even have a right to stand up and campaign for anyone they choose - including Obama OR Hillary!! But at least Chelsea and Hillary's mum ARE family… rather than just another celebrity talk show diva who may or may not be the best judge of character?!

So use your brains peeps - find out when and how Obama met Oprah. AND ask youselves "Is it more important for 'Obama the Candidate' to miss extremely important Senate votes to keep beating the campaign trail rather than flying back to Washington to represent his constituents from Illinois as well as the REST of the country's Democrats in Congress"?? Considering that there is only a 51-49 member majority - I for one think NOT!! Right now I suspect Obama is only running for his own best interests NOT WHAT IS BEST FOR OUR COUNTRY…

Oprah you was always a star in our house until you entered the arena of politics. Your show will not be tuned in again. I always thought you were above racism. Your true color has come out now. The only reason you came out for Obama is his color not what he stands for. All you are doing is helping the GOP. Obama has no chance of winning a national election. A snowball in hell has a better chance. Give it up and go back to your day time talk show. So what if Bill gets to be close to the white house again. We had no wars a balanced budget and a surplus of national funds when he lift office. Most people done better the eight years he was in office then any other president for a long time.

I hope people get past the excitement of Oprah, who I like very much, and ask themselves the question why is the Obama campaign having to use a celebrity to sell him at this point?
Many of the candidates have celebrity support, but they are not positioning them as Obama has. I think at this point the only people who should be out there front and center with the candidates are their families.
I think this was a bad decision on the Obama campain to bring Oprah out so soon, I think it clearly points out his inability to stand on his own and convince America that he is the one and points out his inexperience which is the reason any pragmatic person whould see he is not qualififed.

Oprah vs. Chelsea??!! Give me a break! How even dare you, CNN, compare the incomparable? Chelsea is who she is (and what is she exactly other than the daughter of some former President?) because she was born to privilege whereas Oprah is an inspiration, role model, and success story for America by diligently working her way up. Oprah is not coatailing on her parents' fame.

why so much criticism to CNN..? don't you get guys ..? Republicans wants Obama to win Democratic Nomination, if that happen, What chances Obama have to win against any Republican opponent..? I would say Big Zero "0″.
This Criticism to CNN not helping anybody but Republicans.

Carrying an 88 year old woman on a stretcher to come out and campaign for you is the best way to lose an election. 88 year old woman should be resting.

And by the way, Hillary and Bill should be retired, resting and letting the new generation of leaders take over. Greedy people!

Well, tally another one, here's one more lie from Hillary, claiming that having Chelsea and her mother with her in Iowa was NOT an attempt to compete with the attention of Oprah stumping for Obama on the very same day. I'm telling you folks, this woman just can NOT tell the truth! Even when it wouldn't hurt her. What would it have harmed if she said "Of course that's why they're here!"? It wouldn't have hurt a thing, but she just cannot be honest with America. BEWARE, her latest blunders and those of her coed house partner are their true colors and our country deserves better. We do NOT need another liar in the White House, especially when one of them had already been impeached for lying under oath while working there the last time! Try something new for a change - ABC - Anybody But Clinton! Do a search of Compulsive Lying, read up on it, these 2 are classic cases.

It amazes how the media it trying to shove this guy down our throats. It's like a Britney Spears thing. I have looked at him for the last 4 years ago, I'm not interested.

if you cared for social security and healthcare, you wouldn't be voting for clinton.

It is about time that this country should make a historical decision by electing first ever woman President in the history of the US.

Congratulations CNN — this has to be the first time in history that a "journalist" wrote a news story about a political candidate appearing with their mommy and their daughter. Your Hillary pandering has sunk to a new low — did you even bother to edit this latest press release from the Hillary campaign?

I guess the polls are being really tough for Hillary right now. When the going gets tough, the tough call on mommy.

It's seems that America is still asking that same old question. Are we ready for a Black president? No one has ever ask the question,are we ready for a White president. Many of our former presidents didn't have any experience as president until they filled that position. I'm tired of hearing that Sen. Obama doesn't have any experience to run this country. People forget that the presidency is an institution of many, not just one. America still has racial divide! Sen. Clinton is not her husband Bill Clintion, they have different thoughts and convictions.

I do not agree that Chelsea is no match to Oprah and she is born with a silver spoon in her mouth.

Chelsea and her parent's life was scrutinized every bit since she was born than Oprah's. It should not be counted against her because she is a daughter of a former Governor, the US President and the Senator. Her parents are highly educated, very much admired worldwide for their policies and oratory. She is definitely going to make a great impact on Hilary's campaign. It is about time we should create a history by electing the first ever woman President. Histroy has shown that women Presidents are as good as any man President. Well, anyone will be much better than our current President.

Looks like to me Obama needs some help in Oprah he knows he's going to get beat. How can the American people vote for this guy who is Not an American a true American would put his hand over his heart during the pledge he had his hands folded down by his waist. I don't trust him.

Oprah gets it! It's about time the rest of you get it too.

This has nothing to do with man vs. woman or black v. white.

Obama brings honesty, integrity & ability to rally this country. And he will mend some relationships with the rest of the world. No other candidate out there can.

The most telling part of all of that is when Hillary said Chelsea would not be making any comments. Hillary wants to bring her along to sit there and smile and remind everyone that what would seem to be a non-functional reproductive system (I didn't know robots could reproduce) actually produced a child.

But is Chelsea going to be allowed to be asked questions? Nope, Hillary wants complete control and wouldn't dare let Chelsea say something truthful that might make her look bad. And Hillary doesn't want Chelsea saying anything that wasn't poll tested first.

Just another person being used by Hillary. How could you do that to your own daughter??

"I always thought you were above racism. Your true color has come out now. The only reason you came out for Obama is his color not what he stands for. … So what if Bill gets to be close to the white house again. We had no wars a balanced budget and a surplus of national funds when he lift office. Most people done better the eight years he was in office then any other president for a long time."

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I couldn't agree with you more.
The presidency of Bush has been a horrible trick played on American citizens. He and his buddies are the only ones who benefitted. I'm tired of being broke, paying taxes to support the rich, and freezing because of the cost of heating oil.

Oprah has said she would not get in politics. She wants to support one now because he is afican american. If anyone thinks this is not true then tell me why she had never support anyone. I know someday we will have a black president but Obama is not ready. Their is not enough experience behind him. Obama has not been in politicals long enough to have the experience tobe our president. If you gave the same airtime and newspaper space for Clinton then thangs might be different. Oprah should use her money to build a school in our country along with one in Africa. 50 million dollars would go along way to help our poor. The people in Louisiana and Mississippi that arew still without homes. Iam sure they could use a few schools also. I look at Oprah different because of only backing a african american canadiate. I won't look up to her anymore because of this.

Oprah stumping for Obama is as simple as black and white. Oprah has never stumped for a person of another color except for Jessie. Does this say something about Oprah?

"Presidential hopeful campaigns with television personality."

"Presidential hopeful campiagns with dauthter."

Been there, done that.

Could we please get back to the important campiagn issues - the war, health care, jobs, trade?

We can watch day time talk shows and celebrate Take-Your-Daughter-To-Work Day another time.

I am not the biggest fans of the Clintons, but before his time in the White House, Bill Clinton was certainly not among the privledged. Chelsea is a private citizen, her parents have rightly kept her out of the media spotlight. In this change of course, I can only think that the Clinton machine is a little nervous at this point. Go Barack-if we truly want change as a nation, he is our guy because he does not have a long political career, and he would approach things from a different perspective.

Adding Oprah to Obama's campaign has convinced me more than ever to campaign AGAINST him. Talk show hosts? Honesty? Give me a break, people. There is a real world out there in real trouble. Inexperienced politicians and talk-show hosts are not the answer. Just what the world needs is television's take on "honesty".

WHO ARE CHELSEA AND OPRAH?
AND WHO CARES WHAT THEY THINK?
THIS PRESIDENTIAL RACE IS SERIOUS BUSINESS, AS SHOULD THE CAMPAIGNERS BE…
IT IS NOT 'A 3-RING CIRCUS!'
GET REAL! THIS IS RIDICULOUS!

Obama Hussein Barack has encouraged hate in this election. I don't know where it gonna end. I am life time democrat but i will never ever vote for this unexperienced guy and a lot of my friend laugh at his speech.

Oprah is show bizz woman she can tell what brings money or power and Chelsea is a young intelligent and smart and successful woman; please don't compare potato (Oprah) with apple (chelsea).

Talking heads like this woman are the reason our Republic has become a Plutocracy. Glitz and glamour, not logic and substance. Who cares who Oprah Winfrey, and Chuck Norris are voting for? They have their pieces of the pie. You people need to start limiting the amount of time you watch television, the subliminal messages have fried your brains.

To make it short - I have sense enough to not let Oprah sway my vote and that rings true of the majority of the women who understand what this is all about!

barack obama brough a friend , Hillary clinton brough her family. Which is more important ? THE FAMILY

Why should race (25 millions), trump gender (150 millions)?
To be fair, this one belongs to a woman.

Overlooks the whole "issue' of 'democracy", doesn't speak for women as a whole; but, pretends to represent and honor the freedom held. Represents one woman-who has not earned, nor honored candidacys; instead has stolen the grace of others to maliciously take advantage of a position that even the smallest of people could challenge*in relations with her kin and the advantages that can be taken^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Oprah should stand for the president. She is black and she is a woman. Who needs Barak or Hillary when you got both in her.

As a politically aware and still undecided Democratic caucusgoer, I can't decide whether I am more impressed by the dog-and-pomny show of a hypercosmetic trash-talk-show queen shilling for an a unelectable and inexperienced tenement organizer, or the usually invisible investment banker daughter of a disbarred perjurer and unelectable panderer. Can anyone help me out? It's _so_ confusing to us plain folk.

Brian Tampa, FL

Watch todays Meet THE Press.

Rudy did have answer for any of the host questions.

Did know that Terrorist would attack World.Blamed Clinton Administration for not keep him briefed. LIES LIES.

Was told to upgrade fire fighter radios but opted out to cut taxes.Was told after first attack that make the OEM in build that in Brooklyn, but refused. Cuasing a panic sitiuation in NYC. He is hated by Heroes of 9/11 (NYPD, FDNY). Claims to be Fmaily Values guys. Had Three Divorces and two affairs while still in office. While President Clinton was being persecuted by Republicans. Took credit for cleaning up New York. He didn't do squat. It was he Comissioner Braxton and President Clinton CPR program. During his reign NY was upheaval because of Affairs and Embarassing tirades. New Yorker give credit for cleaning to President Bill Clinton.

Curretly - Rudy and partner with doing business with Qatar sponsor of Al Jarezza, and the person that warned that mastermind of 9/11. Did business with right after 9/11. Has buiness dealing with people that deal with North Korea. Hi Business was also part of ppl that wanted sell U.S. Ports to UAE. He dealing with is Kreik. And the sin of Father. Dealing with mobs.

Oprah vs. Chelsea? Are you kidding? That's comparing zircons to diamonds. Chelsea is the real thing: a highly educated young lady who has handled herself with grace throughout her life. Oprah, on the other hand, is an over-paid, ostentatious, spoiled celebrity who now thinks she can pick our next president. There are many other celebrities who endorse their favorite candidates without over-the-top, shove-him-down-their-throats, out-of-control rallies. There is nothing wrong with candidates having their families stump for them. They all do it and most voters like it. By the way, all those cars, etc., that Oprah brags about giving to her guests: they are provided by the manufacturers. Yet she always hands them out as if they are from her. Yep, she's a fraud, a zircon.

This is at the height of our modern malaise. Rich, famous, ambitious people stealing votes from the public to help other rich, ambitious people get into office. The founding fathers would never have imagined this kind of national nightmare, but I'm sure they would not have approved. Go to hell, Oprah. Hillary doesn't need a strong, well-known woman to campaign for her. Hillary IS that woman.

And Hillary chose yet again to avoid a direct answer? Wow! *YAWN*

Oprah. Here's a clue:

Majority of Obama Supporter here are nothing but Republican try to get there Dream Canidate. Huckabee or Romeny.

Think about it. They will do what they did to Rep Ford Jr. with that Idiotic commerical. Republican want this to be a issue about Race so they get there southern racist folks to vote. Like the ones in Tenesse.
Obama if you win the nomination and and lose the Presidency then you will be considerer Ralph Nader. Nader Crowned Georger W. Bush the president when clearly Gore Won.

Vote Clinton 08.
"You Need a Clinton to Fix Bush's Mistakes"

Is "Oprahbama" the best you guys can think of? That flows off the tongue as wells as Barackinfrey. Try using "Oprama" from now on, thanks.

I only wonder when Socks, The First Cat, will be brought back to campaign for Hillary. He was helping to soften her image until he was dumped on Betty Currie when he was no longer needed. How telling…

Chelsea wins Oprah hands down. What does Oprah know about politics anyway?

Obama cannot win the nomination without help, not on his own merits, experiences, qualifications or money.

OBAMA NEEDS THE HELP OF MUSLIMS, REPUBLICANS, OPRAH….

Chelsea seems the most honest of the three in the family. She is certainly more helpful than Bill to Hillary.

Hope Hillary will not start claiming Chelsea's experience as she did with her own. I will not vote for another Clinton or Bush, period. We have three hundred millions of people. Are these two royal families our only choices?

We have to protect our democracy by not bringing back dynasty.

Why when a famous black person support Obama, is the race card, why not when white supports Hillary, or a woman supports Hillary is considered as sexist? Why can it be Oprah, the american, supporting Obama, the american?
Would other candidates supporters say the same thing if Oprah was for them? I bet not.
Let it be. Americans, supporting americans.

A new Iowa poll was just released, and it has Clinton barely ahead of Obama. The numbers also include surveys from NH and SC, and Clinton is in big big trouble in both states. Link to all three polls here.

I've said this a few times already in relation to Oprah's influence on the campaigns.

Celebs give me energy to a campaign, more than they do votes. Timed right it can be very effective in motivating your volunteers and solidifying your supporters. But the star power can't change minds that are already made up. If someone is undecided and literally weakwilled about the election this might turn their vote. But these people are typically not among the actual people that vote in an election. Those couch potatoes that watch daytime talkshows are not necessarily going to walk in and vote in the election. Now that doesn't say her appearance has no effect. It just means that the media shouldn't overblow her effect on the campaign.

In the end, I forsee a bump in the polls of 2%. But these polls are with people that were called, and may not necessarily be people that would be going to the polling places. Polls are based on energy more than they are on actually gauging who will go in and vote. They try their best, but in the end it all comes up to Obama's message. If it resonates and pulls people to his campaign then he will accrue votes in the primary. If not, well it was a nice show of support by Oprah.

Telling it like I see it,
Wynter

It was so enduring to see Senator Clinton with her mother and daughter symbolizing the warmth, depth and power that lies within the generations of all women’s lives. Senator Clinton demonstrates her values by engaging her family (mother and daughter) in this political process and not a cold, meaningless, mega rich celebrity. This is what makes us proud to support Senator Clinton and not the shallowness and meaninglessness of celebrity status found in her opponents tactics and mentality.

This country will do well with Hillary because Hilary will do well for this country.
I cannot believe the people who get their marching orders from "HATE" TV and "HATE" radio, it seems that most of them have loss the ability to think for themselves, as you can see from some of the comments which mirror the comments on hate TV and hate radio – check the newspaper comment sections. If they were really concern about where Hillary would take this country they would really be expressing their utter discuss about where the Bush administration has already taken it - which is down - way way down ! surplus long gone, thousands of lives loss for a completely unnecessary war, 1 trillion and counting taken from our national treasury – funds that our children and their children will need to pay for, 50 billion paid to insurgents to stop attacking our troops – al least for now or until we stop paying them again, 12 billion in 100 dollar bills they claim is just missing - the list of unbelievable stuff just goes on and on and with no lessons learned from the past ; the times when we gave weapons and billions to the Taliban who were fighting the Russians at that time as well as the northern alliance ( now the current leadership of Afghanistan ) not to mention all the weapons and billions more dollars we gave Sodom Hussein during the Iraq - Iran wars – this all after the horrific gassing this administration likes to point out and those plane load of weapons Ollie gave to the Iranians during the U.S. led embargo ? – Why and what for? Were any of those weapons sent to the insurgents in this Iraq war ?. Now days our economy is in shambles, we are on the verge of a recession, this administration has been wrong about so many things that our credibility and respect around the world has been badly soiled, as Scott McCulin said he lad to lend the bush administration some credibility, Tony Snow was kind with his “somewhat of an embarrassment” remark – so Do your homework folks - then decide – because one more Bush like neo-con like administration could well do us in! Our founding fathers prevail over the most powerful military on earth because bullets will never be a substitute for the will of the people – a well informed people ! Neo-cons should return to the toy soldiers of the youth and leave the real soldiers to leaders like Hillary who will make decisions as their commander and chief worthy of the service and their sacrifices !

Mr. Obama should considering puting Ms. Winfrey on the ticket. She has about the same qualifications and experience as he does.

Posted By Oprah in 08 : December 9, 2007 7:20 am

No she doesn't, Obama's actually been in public office for 11 years, by the way that's actually longer than Hillary's 7 years in public office.

Even though i like Obama, I would not vote for him. Not because he is black, but because i dont agree with his proposals. To me it seems that Oprah isin't pulling for Obama because of what he proposes. I believe that she is endorsing him simply because he is black. I do like some of his ideas, but I believe Oprah should look past the fact that Obama is black and find a better reason to vote for him. CNN has a pole right now if celeberty endorsements affect their vote? About 137,000(95%) says it doesn't affect their vote white 7,000(5%) says "yes" it does affect their vote. That is a major difference and that is good. I don't believe that it should matter. Just because they are famous and some of them act it shouldnt create an influence on us. I dont care who a famous person endorses. THe real "influence" should be their plans and proposals! Not actors and actresses. As my mom says, "who cares what these people think. Who are they? All they are are actors and that's it. Why should their opinion be any more signifigant than mine?"

I totally agree mom.

I have read the article and all the comments up till now and it seems most liberal democrats only care about the candidates' gender or race. They have allowed their politically correct ideologue to dictate their decision-making instead of logic and reality. Oprah is a racist, who panders to weak minded white middle-class woman with her dreadful show.

Thanks Oprah for making it so black and white. So you support your black candidate and I support my white candidate…sorry did I say that. I am not that stupid. I will support candidate based on experience and their stand on issues.

OPRAH DON'T QUIT YOUR DAY JOB.

Chelsea vs. Oprah: Obama has to use Hollywood to deliver his message, because it seems that no one is listening. Where as, Clinton gets support from her family to support and strength the message she wants to convey.

I think Winfrey is trying to buy herself a president. I don't think it'll work. Obama isn't ready yet. Maybe he could be secretary of something… the interior. Maybe he could enlist in the National Guard and get some useful experience. What does he know about sending troops into harm's way? All presidents have decided that they need to do that at one time or another.

The major difference between Hillary and Obama in being the first potential "non-white-male" president is that Obama got to where he is with his charisma and his intellect. Hillary got to where she is because she married Bill. She did not really earn her way, while Obama did. He was not born into a privileged family, he worked for everything he has. This alone makes him more qualified and experienced. Oprah rocks because she is self made as well. We must ask ourselves, do we want a gold digger, or do we want a guy with a heart of gold?

People shouldn't be calling this a celebrity endorsement. Oprah is not a celebrity, she a Queen. Hail Oprama 08!

It is amazing to me that health care, immigration or the saftey of the products being imported into this nation are not the issues that are being talked about to select our candidates.

Who cares what Oprah or Chelsea thinks about a candidate? Do some research on each candidate and how they stand of the issues important to you.

First of all, not as we expected.

1. Oprah was reading her paper the whole time when she spoke, sometimes, has to re-read it again. Oprah is much better than that, kind of down. It doesn't seems that she was really well prepared. This also shows that she underestimated people in Iowa, Right, they came out just to see her.
2. Obama did not give us anything new, instead, repeated the same story like speech "won't do for this election", nothing new. He did not prepare well for this either.

3. Most cheers came from children and teens. Don't hear many from adults.

4. The audiance were quiet 2 times: When Oprah attacks Hillary (althought her name was not mentioned) about "experince" line; when Obama speaking "unlike some candidates say what voters like to hear" line. To me, they failed right there. You can tell from their facial expression.

5. This event was a great opportunity for Oprah to tell voters why she endorsing Obama, didn't say much of that. She even talked something like Obama against war thing which kind of hurt him because everyone now knew his voting records as exactly like what he claimed.
Ovrall, lack of depth and lack of strength, kind of shallow. Like the 3 women watched the event told me, selling a book is easy, selling a president, she has to know what she is talking about first. Well, to sell a book, you need to read it first. Oprah did NOT this time.

OPRAH- I watch your show once in a while if I am home or I am running on treadmill at gym. I always thought that you were decent who was voice for women. However after seeing you hooting for someone who happens to be black has really changed my preception of you. I think you are promoter of racism. Next time I see you doing a show on the issue of "racism" I have only one thing to say to you–shut your mouth because you are the biggest bigot on TV. shame on you.

Thank GOD this time somebody is standing up for the truth.

Thank GOD this time somebody is standing up for the truth.
"Obama's tongue 'dipped in the unvarnished truth'"

OBAMA 08

YAWN

I feel impelled to comment, finding it amazing to think that "the Woman of Daytime Television," per CNN’s Candy Crowley, was willing to take the extraordinary risk to "leave her comfort zone," as Obama said, to come out to support a candidate for the President of the United States. Hmmmm… Is that really as scarey as he made it sound? And who are all these people who have the time to watch daytime television? I don’t know about you, but I’m working two jobs these days.

Anybody who actually listened to what she said recognizes that it was an emotional, solely personal, totally empty endorsement. Oprah thinks that Obama is omniscient: “…he KNOWS us….KNOWS what we can become…," she said in her speech. Where is there any substance, any truth in that? If she was so "worried about our country" as she said (twice over), why didn't she stand up before now, if she has as much influence as she thinks she has? In my opinion, this is exactly what we do NOT need to contend with in facing the critical decision to elect the next leader of our nation.

Frankly, I could hardly believe it when the actor Ronald Reagan was elected. Why is it that actors, entertainers and celebrities seem to have such sway with the average American? How can an actor be trusted to not just be acting, putting on "…a really good show…" as Ed Sullivan used to say and making incredible amounts of money (your money, by the way) for it. Unfortunately, I think it clearly demonstrates that American citizens have become more interested in entertainment, in consumption, than in maintaining our freedoms, which are totally taken for granted. Too many of us have become too lazy to think for ourselves; we devour without question whatever drivel is presented to us, be it in daytime television, night time news or the slurry put out by the tabloids and we further propagate the same garbage in our own lives.

That Obama has turned toward the Hollywood scene for support, an apparent maneuver for media exposure, does not bode well for him. The undecided discerning voter would logically turn away from a candidate endorsed by the Queen of Daytime Television. [my emphasis.] It further destroys his credibility, and his hesitant, mindless comments following her endorsement speech do not elicit my confidence that he could competently lead this country. I myself would hold little respect for a president who timidly confessed that he was "a by-product" of an event staged for the "Woman of Daytime Television.” Obama’s thoughtless response that Oprah's becoming the Vice President of the United States would be a "demotion" for her is an insult to that great office, and to every generation of Americans who has supported the Constitution of the United States since it’s inception, oftentimes laying down their lives for it.

It's time….actually PAST time for us to get serious in finding out the facts about our potential leaders, with those facts informing our vote. With access to the internet, numerous newspapers, weekly and monthly periodicals to research all the issues facing us as a county and how our candidates would address them, we have no excuse to be uninformed voters swayed by the popularity of the entertainment industry’s personalities It's PAST time to separate entertainment from the critical task of effectively guiding this nation under the U.S. Constitution. And Yes, Oprah, you HAVE influenced this citizen, but not in the way you intended. I thank you for helping me eliminate yet another candidate.

Chelsea or Oprah??? Are ya kiddin' me?? I'd rather see CHELSEA anyday!!! I think it's wonderful that Chelsea and her grandmother have come out to support Hillary!!!

Oprah on the other hand is just being the RACIST she is. If she wants to enter the political arena, why not endorse the WOMAN candidate??? Huh? No, she endorses the black man, and her presence only reinforces that he is THE BLACK MAN!!!!

Go back to Chicago Oprah where ya belong!!! The White House will be Hillary's in 2009!!!!

Interesting blog Jack from Ny, NY. You words make you look like the promoter of racism. I am white, female, baby boomer, and supporter of Obama. I am well educated and in mensa as well. I believe Obama will lead our country in a new, more respectable direction.

It's time we all get off of the race card and look at a person for what their values and abilities are.

You have shown your ignorance. Barack's family is with him on the campaign trail. This appearance by Chelsea is RARE.

As for some of these southern bloggers, calling Oprah a racist only confirms that you are racists or you don't follow Oprah.

When are you going to mature or are you stuck in the 19th century?

Hillary is seen as the least honest and trustworthy and doesn't represent change.
This according to all recent POLLs. So,"baby boomer" how the heck could you vot for HRC?

So many don't trust her, why would you think she will keep her word on health care, Iran, the economy.

She can't even give a straight answer on ANY question that she hasn't had a poll study. Just look at her response in the diner about Chelsea and making a comment.

Liar, and totally self centered. Dynasty…Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton…Not for me.

This is about who has the most money. I truely believe Ms. Winfrey is pushing her agenda not the American Agenda! Mr. Obama is not in touch with the United States or its people and its scarry!!! Hopefully we as a people will not let the money or star power get in the way of what is right!

Im not a supporter of of either one.. what makes barack think he will win this country is not ready for him!

One more thing, Obama is a part of the Trinity Church pushing Africa not America! Winfrey is for her people not anyone else! DO THE RESERCH!

As bad as I hate to say it, it is true: America is going to vote for a white person before they do for a black person to lead this country. If the democrats pick Obama then Republicans are sure to win the general election, if the Democrats choose Hillary then the Democrats will almost certainly win back the White House. America is ready for a change in leadership, but when the time comes to elect an african american to lead this country they aren't going to elect the first one that comes along! They are going to elect an african american that has proven he is dedicated to advancing this country, not just his race - as Obama has demonstrated

As a former New York citizen I've always been for Hillary Clinton. But I was watching Obama with interest - until recently. He's allowing the presidential race to be turned into a show business affair. It's always been influenced by Hollywood and its generous contributors, but I've never seen ANY star try to buy an election, and here it seems like that's what's going on. Oprah as competition for Chelsea? Not a chance. Chelsea is an independent young woman who came out onto the campaign trail with nothing to gain than to see her mother elected president. Oprah, on the other hand, would like to be seen as the powerful black woman who helped get the first black man elected president. Besides that milestone, neither have really done a whole heck of a lot for black people in the US. I'm not impressed.

Btw, this article was quite one-sided; I think I know who Chris Welch is voting for… or, at least, NOT voting for.

Clearly, Oprah is a racist and a bigot for supporting a black candidate. I mean, a black woman supporting a multi-ethnic individual instead of supporting a white woman? What a racist! Supporting Hillary would have shown that she's not biased at all, and she wouldn't be wasting her support on the other candidates who have no chance that I won't be voting for because CNN told me not to.

I live legally in the US, I cannot vote but I'm observing the the political campaign. From all the posts I have read so far, i would be ashame to be democrat or even american!
The obvious racism shows that this country instead of being a model around the world, as it once was, is now downgraded to a country where people hate people of different religion, skin color and idea.

Here are some of my thoughts. Some may claim i'm anti-Clinton, I'm not. I just don't follow Clinton's supporters reasoning.

Oprah, as a citizen who is not only a talk show host but a humanitarian, can support whoever she wants. People saying she is supporting Mr. Obama simply because he is "black" are example of a part of the American population's close mindness.
Barack Obama is as black as he is white. You seeing him as a black person shows that race is important to you (why would he be more black than white?). USA is a country of immigrants, it would be fair to see other people than rich-white-male as presidents. It's 2007, what about a non-white-male president (ie: female or non-caucasian?). You have at least 3 non-white-male candidates in the democratic party, republican party has none. Consider yourself lucky of the choice you have.

Chelsea Clinton and Oprah should not be compared. One is a private citizen who happened to have very public parents, the other is a show-biz person talking to millions of people every week. What does Chelsea bring to her mother political campaign? Nostalgia, maybe, for all the people who used to see her as a kid when her dad was president? Chelsea contribution to her mom campaign should be similar to all the other candidates' children. Why would it be any different?
Former president Clinton supports his wife? Why is this normal, just because Hillary is his wife? He could very well support another candidate (although this wouldn't be good for his "marriage"). Never read anything about it, and yet people assume his judgment is good? I would say it's far from being objective!

I've heard people saying let's not vote for this candidate because in the general election he has no chance. This is supposed to be a democracy! No matter what the other political party says, YOU, the people, decide! Scary reasoning..

Experience.. if you need real experience then only president would be president. Is a country where the same families are occupying the top job a democracy? I call that a monarchy if nothing else. This is hypocritical when you say you go to middle east to spread democracy when your election process is outdated (why do some state have to vote before other in the primaries?) and with the cost of the primaries, only rich people can apply?!.
Back to the experience issue, what about Mr. Biden and Mr. Richardson? They both are very experienced candidates. But according to polls, they never got any momentum or financial support from the public? Mrs. Clinton got only 6 years in the senate, is that the experience you're talking about? If you're choosing a candidate based only on experience, why don't you choose Biden or Richardson?
Oh I forgot, why not elect a female president, right? or a Clinton because things were much better back then.. this type of reasoning is scary and I hope the American electorate will mature between now and then, for your own country's sake.

Finally, a president has advisers. He does not govern alone, this is not a dictatorship I hope. So I don't understand how experience is such an issue. Good reasoning, decision making, honesty and leadership should! Many presidents did well without former experience.

Elect civilly your best candidate and unite for the general election otherwise you will only lose as you did before. In the end, the USA' president represents all of you, no matter what you say!

As a simple observer, I'm still curious to see how things would work out between the President and the rest (congress and Vice-president) if Mrs. Clinton was elected president and Bill Clinton was back in the White House…

Well, well, well.. so the slogan is "change you can count on".
Can we count on the White House chefs serving chitlins at a State dinner perhaps?
Oprah go home we are sick of your egotistical over exposure.
Obama, is an inexperienced little puppy, in WAAAY over his head.

Maybe we should let Oprah be president, Obama VP, Jessie Jackson secretary of state, Al Shapton the defense secretary.

Vinay Goyal in CA,

Are you fascinated to have woman candidate in the Presdential race? You want her to be our first woman President to do what? To raise our taxes to have Universal health care? To have abortions in the country? To have gay marriages in the country? Does she fit to be the president of our nation. No. My friend. She cannot be the president. You have been whitewashed by the media and also part of Bush-bashing.

Obama campain adding Oprah so soon, clearly points out his inability to stand on his own and convince America that he is the one and points out his inexperience which is the reason any pragmatic person whould see he is not qualififed.

Hiding under Oprah's skirt won't help Obama. At least Hillary stands her ground uncamouflaged.

Oprah is opening her big mouth for Obama ONLY BECAUSE OF HIS COLOR OF SKIN. She has made this into racial issue by coming in the picture.

Posted By jack, ny, ny : December 9, 2007 9:10 am

your level of naivete is appalling, if you wanna accuse oprah of making this a race issue then accuse chuck norris who is for huckabee and barbara streisand who is for hillary just to be fair to obama, but nah that aint gon happen because you thrive on your ignorance, racist thinking, feeling and comments, oprah is free to choose who to support, just because she is a mega star and she chooses obama now thats all about race? f.y.i he is of mixed race, half white, half black, since you are all about race, how are you sure oprah isnt supporting his white side? lol

A candidate who knows next to nothing in in American politics, (how much less of international politics) is being promoted by someone who knows absolutely nothing about politics! What a misfit? I do hope Oprah's smiles and hugs will be converted to votes.
America does not need a President for the blacks or one for the whites, America is in need of a President for all (whites, blacks, women, men, children), the best candidate is the one who understands what 'she' says and when to say it and not a naive person who simply hides his middle name.

I find it amazing at the harsh racial overtones some people have towards Oprah endorsment of Obama.

jack of ny, ny posts the following:
OPRAH- I watch your show once in a while…I think you are promoter of racism. Next time I see you doing a show on the issue of "racism" I have only one thing to say to you–shut your mouth because you are the biggest bigot on TV. shame on you.

Why does the Oprah-Obama connection promote such racist views? When Mike Huckabee got endorsed by Chuck Norris , nobody was yelling about racism. Or when Hillary got endorsed by Barbara Streisand, no one was yelling about racism. But when two people who have similiar beliefs politically and happen to both be "black", some white people claim racism. What?! Huh?!

Why is Chelesa on the campaign trail in Iowa? She is not a child following her parent to Iowa because she has to. It is part of a political ploy to make Hillary look more family-centric instead of a calculating and cold politician.

People shouldn't be calling this a celebrity endorsement. Oprah is not a celebrity, she a Queen. Hail Oprama 08!

Posted By rdierker : December 9, 2007 1:25 pm

SORRY, SHE IS YOUR QUEEN. Speak for yourself.

Being a black woman, I don't have to follow what she says about Obama because I don't think Obama has the quality to lead. I don't vote for him because he is black and I don't vote for Hillary or Biden because they are woman and white. I really want Obama give us black people,( black women), more iseads how he is going to solve problems at home and international. Compare with other candidates, he most of the time can say the problem but lack of system how to deal with them. I am also afraid of loosing the chance to beat Republicans. I will vote for Hillary. I think she has guts to do what is so hard for so many women. She is tough, real tough, and I am very impressed with her life and records. When she talks, I can follow what she means, but when Obama talks, I feel hard to focus on the issues because he kind of spreading things all over, not very clear.
I will find out how my 2 friends went to see Oprah today and see what they think.

She did not even speak. You Obama people are really alot more mean spirited then Senator Clintons camp. I have never heard anyone put down Obama's Children. That is speaking Dems and Rebs/ How low can one sink. To think Oprah represents this kind of Politics.

“At the end of the day it’s a choice among those of us who are running. And I think that most voters understand that.” (by Hillary Clinton, yesterday)

Now if that isn't no(n)sense double-talk Hill-Speak, then I don't know what is…..

And believe it or not, there ARE folks out there in the electorate, who actually would put someone who talks like this, in the Oval Office.

I have always been a Democrat, but if SHE's the nominee, I may be looking elsewhere.

Its NOT that she is female (my doctor and vet are both females). She is simply not qualified to make the Changes we need here in the US. Unless of course you believe that talking out of both sides of her mouth is a qualification…

The only remote advantage I can see for HER being Pres, is to make sure that the liberals regain control of the Supreme Court.

Conservatism is lost cause, but like Racism and the rampant use of guns in our society, it still rears its ugly head now and then.

We -certainly- need to stamp out the conservatives, but NOT with Hillary. Edwards, Obama, Biden, or Richardson… Yes.

Hillary NOT…

Race card is just as damaging as gender card. The best candidate has to go beyond any minority group in order to represent the whole country.
