Obama is the new kid in town and the press is protecting him just like they protected you. I am sick of the political dynasties: Clinton, Bush, Kennedy. These people have been in office forever and nothing ever changes, except maybe the lies that come out of all their mouths. We need new people if we want real change.

Maybe we need to go back and watch Bill struggle finding words against Obama. But Facts are there. There were half a dozen of former Presidents who were elected far below in experience as compare to charisma Obama, Abe Lincoln was one. Bill and his Wife just want to hold onto the throne but I think should democrats make mistake, republicans will hit another golden chance and nothing will change.

One year in the Senate is not nearly enough time in goverment to make a good President. Not only does Hillary Clinton have exceptional experience, she has personal relationships with people in government, both here and abroad, that would make her a seasoned president from the very first day in office. Even though I am a democrat, and have spent one year without my husband, while he fought in Iraq, I would vote for any Republican with more experience over Obama. We don't need a "rock star". We need a true leader. Hillary, my prayers are with you every day. Keep up the good work! I wholeheartedly agree with Bill Clinton.

Good thing Obama's not you. As much as I respect the former president, he is the last person to be passing judgment on ANYone. I've lived in NY state since I was born, rather than just a year before a senate race so that I could run for political office, and I still can't believe that we as a country have allowed Senator Clinton's arrogant, self-serving carpetbagging (remember that term, folks?) to escalate to this point. With all due respect, Mr. President, you've both had your share of power, and quite frankly I'd prefer the possibility of your "fairy tale" coming true over the belligerence that you unfortunately both exhibit when you're not ranked first in the polls. "...but I knew in my bones I shouldn't run, that I was a good enough politician to win, but I didn't think I was ready to be president."

Look at what President Bush has done to the country with "not much" experience. We are at critical time, the country is in deep troubles. We absolutelly can not afford to have a leader without experience even he might claim himself "a possible fast learner". We can not wait , the world will not wait, and of course China, Russia , and more will never ever wait for him "to get trained." We may chit chat about likable and not likable, but once get to the business we must and need to base on facts and records. What experience is based on? whether a young man with less than two years in senate and not being tested or a woman with at least 35 years of public service and tested her leadership roles. I will vote for Hillary not because I like her or not but because I strongly believe she is electable, totally ready for the job, and far more capable to lift up the country once again. Last but not least that's with my bet on her I would not have nightmare about the "risk" I choose. I am totally agree with the President.

Obama is a smart man i don't think he will make big enough mistake to destroy our country, Bush already did that; I believe Obama is going to fix that. He is our only hope because there is no one else out there that is honest. We don't want your wife who is the largest receiver of donations from pharmaceutical companies, the very people she says she is going to fight against.

I have heard "Once a Muslim always a Muslim". Also heard that Obama himself was in Madarassa for nearly three years of his early life in Indonesia. This fact alone weighs in favor of all others when there is an identifiable religion based crisis in the World today where for right or wrong reasons all of the subject wars in the past twenty years are fought in or around Muslim countries. Being Muslim is not wrong, but having colored by fanatic Muslim Madarassas can go long ways into the American politics. All I know of Madarassas is that they preach constantly into innocent brains that United States is wrong in anything they do. Senator Obama's Muslim roots are a big question in my mind.

But I'll tell you this much, democrats disgust me more because they punish success. Hillary has and wants to continue to punish doctors. If all the doctors leave america who will take care of you?
The best choice for dem's is Obama. He's young, smart, fresh, and the "lack of experience" really means he's not as dirty a politician. Hillary is a fraud, Edwards is a fraud. Obama less so.

Now that Hillary is losing, looks like she'll be our (NYS) Senator forever. Anyhow, all the leading Dems are so pathetically weak. Obama and Edwards have made such foolish statements in the past. And Hillary has all the baggage. Too bad Lieberman is old.

I honestly don't understand why people think that Hillary is 'ready to lead form Day One'. She's got, what, almost 8 years in elected office, with a much less than stellar Senate record, oh yeah, she did vote for the war twice, and antagonized Iran as well. Just what we need in the White House at this stage in our history. she'd probably appoint Cheney as her Sec of Defense. Oprah has been my favorite talk show host, but there is no doubt in my mind why she is voting for Obama and I don't feel that we as America's need a talk show celebrity to tell us who to vote for. I will not again watch her show. I do not have any racial opinions about Obama, but I do feel that america is not ready for an Obama Hussain in our top leadership role…not today!

Steve you proved yourself a liar in that last paragraph. As for Hillary's cabinet, it will be assembled with a bunch of folks that the Clinton's owe favors to, of that you can be sure.

I suppose if you are close enough to the one wielding this power, it rubs off on you? How do Hillary's years as a First Lady qualify her to be President?
