No bias. Fake tears. Cross her & you get Arkansas Flu. Clinton supporters accuse Obama supporters of suspicious behavior. Pot – Black.
How in Sam Hill does a woman, a discredit to the female gender, score so many idolizing fans when her entire record in office, gov. & pres., are ALL lies, manipulation, racist remarks, illegal campaign money, fraud, numerous ethics violations, failed pograms, on board with Walmart who openly abused employees and violated wage laws, an American Flag with satanic stars, open witchcraft practice in the White House, destroyed documents, withheld others....and last but not least Absolutely No positive content in her campaign. What tha.? Are these people paid, traitors, hypnotized, co-dependent or all of the forementioned?
Does character assassination, rigged voting, and a passel of paid celebrities qualify one to be an honest leader?

Which candidate cut a hole in the America flag while illegal aliens cross our border in the background?

Which candidate wears an eye-patch like a pirate?

And, did you know there are THREE women in Arizona's Primary ballot?

http://projectwhitehouse.wordpress.com/

Arizona has produced a slew of candidates for the highest office in the nation. That's right, more candidates to choose from. While the country and its political pundits are focused on tiny East Coast states, some ten Republicans and fifteen new Democratic candidates will appear in the Arizona Primary ballot this February. An effort sponsored by The Tucson Weekly, an Arizona alternative newspaper, has opened the gates for a stable of dark-horse candidates.

As with all politics the sparks are already flying. Candidate Sean "CF" Murphy responds to a political ad filed by Democratic candidate Doctress Neutopia in which she desecrates the American flag by cutting a hole in it.

The USA need a honest person as president, to repair the international dammage done by Bush.

Most People all over the world, have lost the trust on America!

In the last years anti Americanism came very popular here in Europe and the rest of the world.

Since Obama became popular most people hope that he will win
Because he would be a president, in who we in Europe would belive and than we could beginn again to trust in your Nation America.

Not only because he is honest and good person the view of most people but also because we would see that the American population is ready to make a real change with Obama.

If Obama would win the election, America will get many lost friends back (me included ) and get also new friends all over the world.

ONLY Obama can do that!!!

Americans!!! Please vote for Obama and get the admiration from all over the world!!!

Cheryl wrote on Jan 9th that experience is on Bill's wife's side. What experience. She has done nothing meaningful while in Congress. Being the wife of the President doesn't make her anyone qualified to be President than being the husband of a jet pilot make him qualified to be a jet pilot. She is a smart person yes, but experienced enough for the Presidency no. We are not electing a celebrity we are electing a President. PLEASE think for a minute. Stop with all the trash talking and THINK. Who is the most QUALIFIED. The politician want you to follow blindly done.

Obama's charisma will not get this country out of the mess it's in right now. The only thing that will help at all is a candidate that knows what they are doing and that certainly isn't Obama. All of you that vote for him will be voting for the NEXT worst president of the United States. Your choice, vote for someone that can get the country back on track or vote for personality and stay in the rut you're in right now thanks to Bush. Bush and Obama are like two peas in a pod, no difference at all.

Freddie January 9, 2008 5:38 pm ET

Laugh now HIllary supporters but your day is coming. I talked with a whole lot of minorities today and all of them said they will sit this election out if Hillary Clinton is the nominee.

I couldn't find one minority who supports Billary Clinton now. Here is a chance for the Republicans to grab African American voters and win the election.

Let me tell you, my African American neighbor said the New Hampshire Democrats just plain LIED about voting for Obama. Just tell the truth, folks.
You don't want to be known as a state full of LIARS do you? Just tell the darn truth, please. Nobody will blame you for choosing white over black. That's your right to do so.

HILLARY, YOU BEST NOT COUNT ON THE BLACK VOTE TO PROPEL YOUR FAT BUTT INTO THE PRESIDENCY. IT WON'T HAPPEN!!!!

I HOPE HUCKABEE, ROMNEY OR JOHN McCAIN STOMPS YOUR FAT BUTT IN THE GENERAL ELECTION.
______

I agree with you, Freddie. I wouldn't vote for the other old womanizer, Rudy Giuliani, but I would vote for any other Republican to show the Democrats that my vote cannot be taken for granted. If they want to choose Hillarly, then their ship can sink with her.

hillary is all plastic. When she says she cares about people, what she really means is, I pretend to care about people so that I can assume control of the country. She's always thought of herself as better than the rest of us and better in position to tell us how to run our lives. A socialist at heart, it wouldn't surprise me at all to see her set up reeducation camps for everyone who disagrees with her if she became president.

Language in these campaigns are important, but actions are what everyone sees first. I wish the news would show the records of all the candidates. In full view you would then see what each person might do if elected. But our media just keeps trying to create issues, like this one. Tonight the news is all about the "Black" vote vs. the "White" vote in South Carolina. This would not even be an issue if Obama was not black. Likewise during the Hillary rally in New Hampshire a protester yelled out to Hillary, "Iron my shirt." That person would have never yelled that at any male candidate. For the record I would love to have an African American President, or a Women, however after looking at their records I am still not convinced that either are properly qualified. However Hillary does have more going for here out of experience than does Obama. I on the other hand would not be upset if John McCain won the Presidential race. But then again he has more experience than does Hillary. That is after looking at their records.

Clinton supporters can boo all they want. They may think Obama can't be the president for change but i will tell them this "YES WE CAN". People need to wake up. I'm sick and tired of us sitting around letting politicians have their way with us, we all have to wise up. The Clintons already serve two terms in the white house, voting for Hillary could bring about yet another term. A term of broken promises such as those she promised on healthcare in 1993. We have a long way to go to know who will be the next democratic nominee and i hope all of us are wise enough to know that the best person for president is Barack Obama. I feel in my heart of hearts that he will win. He will make a good president. He is optimistic, he is the one who will bring a new change, a change we can belive in. People look around and see what's going on in this nation, do you want a president who will unite us are a next president such as Bush. Do you want to change or do you want to go on with the same old things. Wake up America. VOTE OBAMA!!!!

Scott Ritter US/UN head inspector comes out public in 2002 before the war and states that there is no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. So checking Senator Clinton's experience and records, she voted Yea for the war in Iraq and helped get us in this mess, and some are naive enough to think she is the right person who is going to get us out of this war. WAKE UP AMERICA.

CNN, What I REALLY need is an in-depth special report (preferably a 3-part series) on the latest ZOO TIGER attacks across America. Get Anderson's "Keeping them honest" team on it (the tigers are obviously keeping something from us), and maybe Amanpour can report on location in Africa or India or wherever the tigers come from. Sanjay can explain to us why exactly it is that it is hazardous to a human being's health to be attacked by a tiger. Do not forget to include a clip from that entire week last year where you reported nothing other than some guy got bit by a cougar since it's human/feline confrontation related. You can follow it up with Lou Dobbs lamenting that, alas, they are not eating all illegal immigrants. THEN you can report on the next most important story in the universe, the booing of a TV screen by Hillary Clinton supporters after her rival said he'd be the next president of the United States.

I hope African Americans can see just how little the Democrats value them. I remember a few years back when an African American was in line to be the head of the Florida Democratic Party, he was passed over for a white man. Fortunately, Governor Jeb Bush stepped in and offered the gentleman a place in the Republican Party which he accepted.

Come on Republicans, here is your chance.

If Hillary's negatives are already at 48%, and that percentage holds among voters in the general election, then it is safe to assume that even after a perfectly run campaign she would strugggle to win 52% of the popular vote. It's hard to be a leader on "day one" when you already have almost half of the United States committed in their position against you.

And no one has been talking about what is likely to happen should Hillary actually be elected President: loss of democratic control in BOTH houses of Congress. She will ship so many anti-Hillary voters to the polls that, in states where she will easily win in a general election (like New Jersey or Michigan), the voters who want to bring her down will elect Republican representatives and senators to Congress. Then we have at least two more years of the toxic, divisive, partisan bickoring and name calling and nothing will get done.

Call me crazy, but that's not changing anything in Washington.

We need a leader who transcends boundaries between race, gender, age, and most importantly, party affiliation. A leader who can rally up even those who don't shre his values but trust his judgment. That leader is Barack Obama.

I guess the New Hampshireners aren't used to an intelligent, articulate, smart, honest, inspiring Black American. How pathetic. This man is has something that Hillary does not have. She is cold and extremely mean spirited. When her name is mentioned, many people cringe. She is not a uniter. She won't reach across the aisle. I watched Obama speech and it was clear that HIS supporters clapped for Clinton when he requested them to. There was no booing like the Clinton supporters. They can't even be gracious in victory. I am stunned that the Clintons, who were of very favorably by the Black community, would have so many supporters that refer to Barack Obama as a Black "kid" and my favorite, "Snoop dog will be the Security of state if Obama is elected." Wow. How classy Clinton supporters. Barack, I am behind you. You represent a potential fundamential shift in the way politicians can be viewed in this country. I will support you. I WILL NOT SUPPORT HILLARY CLINTON.

This petulance seems to typify the Clinton campaign. The presidency is not a birthright, not an inheritance. The presidency belongs to the best leader for our nation. A leader whose closest followers would jeer at a fellow party leader are simply too partisan and too petulant to be acceptable to me. Why continue the politics of diversion and partisanship?

All you folks that are falling for the Obama hype were probably not old enough to know the economic reality during Bill Clinton's Presidency.

Know your facts before you let your fingers do your uninformed hate mongering.

I want someone who actually does make change, not someone who PROSELYTIZES about changes they will make on a national level when in actuality Obama's tenure in the Illinois State Legislature was quite 'UNREMARKABLE'.

Charm and personality are great attributes, and Obama SEEMS so have both, but I'm not voting for someone to charm me or impress me with their wishful rhetoric.

I will be voting for someone who has ALWAYS been an active advocate for women and children's rights, and indeed equal rights for all people, nationally and internationally.

Hillary Rodham Clinton has been an ambasador (as First Lady) to over 80 countries. She has met the leaders of those countries and fosters good relationships with them today.

I will be voting for someone who knows my RETIREMENT PENSION is tanking, concurrent with our economy. Hillary Rodham Clinton is the candidate that can, and will, change the course of the GEORGE BUSH INDUCED RECESSION by aggressivly persuing renewable energy sources and technologies.

Hillary will facilitate an American resurgance in the fields of science, technology, innovation and motivation.

I will be voting for someone who will RESPONSIBLY deal with Iraq by bringing our troops home with dignity, giving them the respect, care and treatment they've earned.

AS A LIFELONG DEMOCRAT, I WANT HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON AS MY PRESIDENT.

After watching the NH Primary I concluded that if my party does not act responsibly in choosing the next leader of the free world, I will indeed wish for a John McCain victory.

I WILL VOTE FOR A REPUBLICAN WITH EXPERIENCE BEFORE I WILL VOTE FOR A DEMOCRAT WITH NONE!

Hillary winning yesterday restored my faith in humanity. The publicity by CNN and newspapers I found so underhanded I was disgusted. All I could think about was how obviously the media was trying to destroy her.and I am astounded by her courage. I am a canadian and I have never seen such dirty politics. Are you all women haters,afraid a women might make a great president? At first I thought Obama had something and then I realized he was saying nothing in perticular ,I find it a bit frightning that people can be led so easily.

This post is entirely ridiculous. If any of you actually WATCHED this tape, you would notice that the hillary supporters were not booing at barack's policy, they were booing at the point in his videorecorded speech when he said "when i am president." Who wouldn't boo at that? Secondly, the fact that hillary showed a little emotion the night before the primary has very little to do with her victory. considering when it happened, most voters in new hampshire (my home state) did not see the tape before voting. grow some balls and stop complaining and making excuses for barack's loss. he is a less experienced candidate who doesn't have any original campaign ideas. a fresh, original candidate? hardly. being a good speaker does NOT in any way qualify somebody to be a leader. Napoleon was a good speaker. Hitler was a great speaker. and we all know how terribly those both turned out.

I think we know not to expect much from Mrs. William J.

Billary will probably win, but if she does anything as weak as crying on the world stage because she's 'perceivably' behind in a race again, she could push Edwards to the front of the race. Watch out, this will be fun!

THE "OBAMA CULT" IS DISSIPATING! Now that Obama is being scrutinized, his emotion-whipping, "oozzy-foozy" message is beginning to FIZZLE OUT. This stuff doesn't last. Obama's run reminds me somewhat of Jesse Jackson's run in 1988. You may have all the FLOWERY talk and speeches, but when push comes to shove you'll have to back it with substance. Obama is lacking in that department. Sorry folks, but his talk of "uniting us all - black and white, etc." is hollow. Where is the beef? What proposals does he have for that? His Healthcare plan is what even gets me! It's nowhere comprehensive coverage. It's REPUBLICAN+PLUS. Same old "band-aid on a big wound". Hillary's plan is the real deal. EVERYBODY (EXCEPT THE SEVERELY DISABLED, NON-WORKING, ETC.) PAYS THEIR FAIR SHARE BASED UPON THEIR INCOME. That is RESPONSIBLE, no senseless govt. handout for lazy folks. Pay your fair share, feel entitled and empowered. Go TEAM HILLARY !!!

When this is all over, Clinton supporters will look back and say they either crushed their competition or were robbed of their deserved victory.
Obama supporters will look back and say that for a fleeting moment we believed in something bigger than ourselves, that we felt what our grandparents must have felt when they voted for FDR or our parents when they supported Bobby Kennedy.
There is no loss to be had by supporting Barack Obama because even if we don't make it to the white house, he taught us that we are out there, that we do believe in things other than money and power and that together we can defeat any foe and accomplish any task.
I'd rather fight for what I believe in and lose than win by never believing in anything at all.
