tish etal.

Obama was trying to defend the lies she told about him. Get your facts straight.

Hmmmm....... After the last debates in S Carolina, seems like the experience issue is becoming more important-Obama is still on the Freshman team while Hillary is playing varsity! Go Girl!!

Obama starting to sound like a whiner. He also reminds me of a kid brother who takes jabs at his older sibling, then proclaims his innocence when found out! Obama, you're great but you've got to stop complaining about the Clintons and get on with your message! If you can't take this kind of heat now in the primaries, then you certainly won't be able to survive the Republican machine if you got the nomination.
This makes me very nervous!

About the S. Carolina debates-It was obvious that during the S. Carolina debate Obama was determined to attack Clinton from the outset. Hillary had every right to respond forcefully to his cheap shots and aggressive tactics. He claims that he was only trying to "clarify" the record and state the "facts" when in fact his record is quite slippery:

1. He has voted "present" numerous times (in the state legislature), thus dodging the difficult task of casting an up or down vote on important issues. (It is hypocritical of him to then cast aspersions at Clinton's and Edward's actual votes on difficult issues.)

2. He twisted Pres. Clintons' remarks about Obama's evolution on his stance on the war, falsely claiming that Clinton characterized Obama's running for presidency as a "fairytale," thus suggesting that Clinton made a racial slur against him. The fact is that Obama's rhetoric against the war does not match up with his votes to fund the war–and it is very fair to call attention to it! (Kucinich, in fact, is the only candidate who has been consistent about the war and his votes!) Obama is trying to play it both ways(!)–he was against the war before he voted funding for it.

3. He was obviously pandering to Republicans by implicitly praising Reagan and the Republicans as "the party of ideas over the last 15 years." if you read the entire quote, his remarks are especially slippery because they are deliberately construed in an ambiguous manner. He doesn't say that Reagan and the Republican ideas were bad for America, but rather leaves this statement and those that precede it open for interpretation. In the context of this interview, these comments were meant to ingratiate himself to Republicans. But with explicitly clarifying his remarks, he leaves himself lots of wiggle room to play it both ways! Indeed, during the S.C. debate, he changed is tune and conveniently distanced himself from his pandering remarks by saying that he "didn't say [ those Republican ideas] were good ones."

If Obama leaves himself open to interpretation or dodges difficult choices then he can't be surprised when others interpret his words or criticize his dodging of responsibility. Also, if he can't take on the heated politics of the primaries, then he won't be able to take on the Republican machine if he is the Democratic nominee.

How ridiculous!

Has Shillary ever walked a picket line?

I bet the writer of this article made the first comment. Well, I am a masters student in industrial engineering, a fellow, and I conduct research at a school that is ranked amongst the top three schools in the nation. Oh, by the way, I am voting for Hillary and I can dance! Go Hillary 08!!!

I say 'Congratulations Hillary'. With that endorsement, I'm sure the Republican Party Machine is digging into the details of United Farmworkers. The Republican Party is looking to see how many illegal immigrants may be apart of this "union". For your sake, I hope none, because if you get the Democratic nomination and there are some illegals, the Democrats can kiss the presidency goodbye.

Well, it looks like the United Farmworkers are jumping on the bandwagon. And why not, it feels nice to back a winner.

Poor Obama and his Moonies are dazed and confused . . . walking around chanting "change, change, change," and bumping into walls.

John Edwards and Hillary Clinton are both experienced, influential, and capable individuals. Obama is Obama.
And that is not a qualification for being President of the United States.

welcome to the club Obama was booed.

The Republican party and John McCain are going to EAT HILLARY ALIVE in the Presidential race. I for one cannot stand Hillary Clinton, her behavior in this primary have left me wanting to vote republican come general election time. The democratic party for some reason thinks that she gives us the best chance to win. I am voting for John McCain because he will not stump this country in the ground like Hillary would.

Hillary criticizes Obama constantly and Obama finally fires back: it's about time. Hillary remains critical and Obama picks up the United Farmers endorsement in California. Hillary criticizes Obama and shifts the Black vote in support of him, and by a wide margin. Hillary, keep on going! Close the door on yourself and let the best candidate win and go on to the White House. It's going to be Great, seeing Obama win in `08.

GO HILLARY. You were amazing in South Carolina last night!

KUDOS FOR HILLARY AND HER LADDIE ,OBAMA DOES NOT EVEN COMPARE SO EAT YOUR HEARTS OUT.WE WILL CELEBRATE ON THE CINCO OF NEXT MONTH AND HOPEFULLY HAVE OUR FIRST WOMAN PRESIDENT,ARE YOU REALLY READY FOR A CHANGE? HILLARY HAS PROVEN WHAT SHES MADE OF.CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THAT STAND BY HER, THE BIG BABIES OF THE WORLD CAN GET OFF HER BACK. THIS COUNTRY IS IN DIRE NEED OF A WOMAN TO LEAD US AND GET US OUT OF THE BIGGEST MESS IN HISTORY GO HILLARY GO .

I think it's funny how the Democratic nomination has essentially come down to gender vs race. Blacks vs women, if we keep that approach; we'll all lose. I thought the major issues were supposed to be the economy, the war, stem cell research and gay marriage. Last nights debate is going to do nothing to change anyones opinion.

As someone who helped elect Obama into the Senate, I'm starting to see a new side of him since his back-to-back defeats and I don't like it. He likes to speak about how's he made from a different mold but I believe that he's a regular politician regardless of how well he speaks. For all those who've never heard anyone like Obama before, spend a few Sundays in a Black church and it'll sound familiar to you. Kind of like Jesse Jackson-lite.

Now, we see that the wild card has been introduced....the Hispanic vote. And while Obama can speak as eloquently as he'd like, what history does he have with the Hispanic voters? How has he improved their lives? The answer is he hasn't and they are supporting the ones who have.

Let's face it, Politics is dirty business. Both Obama and Hillary are guilty of the same thing (as is Edwards, but with a lot less fanfare). It is good to see people feel strongly about a candidate one way or the other. In my opinion, Obama just doesn't have the track record to be President of the U.S. Hillary has more to 'complain' about simply because she's been around longer and has been involved in a myriad of domestic/foreign issues.

They both deserve a fair chance to compete. I'm sure if it were two other people competing for the most important job in the country, it would not be all roses and candy between them.

No matter who wins the election (Republican or Democrat), they inherit the worst disaster in over 60 years. Bush has done more damage to the economy, deficit, international affairs, families, healthcare, financial markets and oh, did I mention he did not veto a spending bill for his first 6 years? Taxes will be rising for years to pay for the mistakes of Mr. Bush. Good luck and prayers to the next president – he/she will certainly need it.

Oh why did Obama give back 40,000 dollars in contributions to TONY REZKO ?? thats what MSNBC said ?

Adam if you know nothing of what she has done in the Latino community dont try to give Obama support here! He has done nothing to enhance the lives of Latinos and he intends not to ! If this was so he would make the statements out loud and in public so the nation could see and hear where he is coming from, but i belive he is afraid to stand up for latinos! if you would like proof of what Mrs. Clinton does do and has done for many years for the Latino not to mention what she has done in the black communities just google it and see the many articles that are public knowledge describing why The UFW will stand behind her along with many other Latinos in california, arizona , new mexico, nevada , florida, new york, new jersey and i belive these are not small states but I do know that there are large and I mean large populations of Latino ! I have heard on CNN some contributors who are talking about the Latino community who try to change what we are we are all latino and they say things like hispanic / latino so they can divide us but that dose not work because we
will not allow any one to divide us to make us seem weaker which they are trying to do now and what you are trying to do at this time adam so do your home work !! Viva Hillary

I am asking all democrats in this great country to support Hillary Clinton for her quest for the democratic party nomination. The reason is that she is the only candidate that can beat any of the republican wannabes. I am saying this because as everyone witnessed, she is is fighter and will not buck down against the republican onslaught going to the general election. There is a lot of stake in this election. So let us all join together to elect Hillary Clinton as the democratic nominee and eventually the next president of the United States.

Wow, what will Hillary need to do in exchange for that endorsement? I like the idea of keeping our votes private, that is why there is no peaking into the voting booth!

HILLARY CLINTON ALL THE WAY!!!!! IF THE REPUBLICANS DO GET A CHANCE TO DEBATE WITH HER SHE'LL BURY THEM, I WOULD BE ASHAMED IF I WERE A REPUBLICAN FOR THE CANDIDATES THEY HAVE TO CHOOSE. GOD HELP US IF ANOTHER REPUBLICAN GETS IN OFFICE!!!!!!!

If Hillary and McCain are the nominees, I will vote for McCain. I am a democrat but I will NOT vote for Hillary. Her swift boat tactics are the worst kind of politics.

Thomas, NV (Do some real research using real resources. Not some blog out there that possibly was written by a very biased individual.)

The sites being referred to are NOT blogs they have written by Obama's own IL major newspapers. The Chicago Sun Times and the Chicago Tribue.

January 20, 2008 Obama surfaces in Rekzo's federal corruption case

Totally agree with you too many of the blogs which people have been believing as gospel are merely the opinions of very biased individuals including the bigger political blogs AND even newspapers are not wholly unbiased! Don't know about the rest of you, but personally have had trouble posting links which disappear or CNN won't print!!

Try typing in Tony Rezko Obama for starters.

SOME REAL NEWS "Jane Roe" Endorses Ron Paul

Well, it certainly seems like the Clinton spin machine is busy today in the blogoshphere. They got their talking points and their posting points and we can see them all over the place.

Unfortunately, none of this will change the ultimate outcome. The divisive, arrogant and conceited strategy by the Clintons has already started a rift in the Democratic party that will grow and grow. And, the independents are going to go against her too.

What this means for the general election is obvious. A good portion of Democrats will sit it out as a protest vote against Hillary, independents will go to the Republicans and the Republicans will favor their own. Sorry Hillary, and your entourage, you will never be President. I would keep your sights set low, right where they are now, in the gutter of Rovian politics. If only you had some wisdom to go along with all your so-called experience. All you really had to do was to sit back and ride it out. But, the arrogance just had to come out. Too bad.

Karen – I have aid similar things on several strains they are not pre-typed and I have not changed my mind on Hillary. She never had my vote and the more she behaves in a divisive and destructive manner the more fervently I speak against her.

Democrat and Proud of it.

How typical CNN. When Obama received a union endorsement in Nevada (or any endorsement for that matter), there is a song and dance on your website.

When Clinton receives and endorsement, we get two lines worth. It's so clear who your organisation wants to win. I'm off to MSNBC for a more balanced coverage.

Its funny to read the posts....I watched the debate with my 17 year old and his friend – as Hillary was asked a question (and they posted the question on the bottom of the screen) – they both said "she didn't even answer the question" – yet....people support her....what exactly are you supporting "I really want a polarizing figure in the White House who would allow her husband decades of infidelity just to get a shot at being president" –

Anyone with a shred of common sense would not vote for her...ever

At least the three Dems are getting equal time to talk in the government controlled media!

Here I sit "purple faced" again.

Hillary: "I believe I have the personal strength and will to make decisions that are beneficial to ALL Americans. Just because I've received $$ support from PAC's, lobby groups, or special interests doesn't mean I owe them anything once I become President".

Me: Ms. Clinton, it does not appear the many migrant workers and lot's of illegal immigrants forming the United Farmworkers are buying it."

My fellow Democrats–neither should we.

Let's put a President in the White House who will truly represent the best interests of all of us. Please take another look–John Edwards, still on message, most capable of leading us towards a "real" new beginning in Washington and the world.

Hey Karen, the truth will set you free.

The "girl power" bunch knows nothing about the REAL ISSUES in this campaign.

Everyone should spread the FACTS about the Clinton's at every opportunity. Copy the facts on issues that MATTER and spread knowledge. None of those posts you hate have been rebuked, because they are all true.

America needs informed voters.

Not the "you go girl" unaware masses that got us into this mess.

Go on Hillary!
Fight with Republicans, fight with the Democrats!
Fight! Fight! Fight!
Because that's how we unite one another and get everyone to agree with you.

Am beginning to love and admire that woman Hillary more and more. 16 years under intense fire and still standing tall and going forward. All women need to emulate that and not cower at the slightest obstacle.
Obama needs to move on too past the Clintons. He is becoming too obsessed with Hillary.
The best way to deal with it is to ignore it and do your thing. Its like a contact sport and you playing according to your opponent dictates. You cant win.
He should stop whinning too and grow up.
I like Obama he just needs to mature and I think this debates and campaign will help him a great deal. He is receiving some baptism of fire that will make him come like Gold when its all through.
Hang in there Obama.
Hillary !!!!!! you go gurl!!!!!!!!!!!!

A change means no dynastic politics...what's wrong with America can't anybody else do the job....forget the Clintons let's have true change...not because you have a name like Bush or Clinton or Kennedy for that matter that gives you the right to go for the top job. We are all entitled whatever our name or connections. It is time for a totally new leaf in our political book let's elect a new name for the president....Obama..

enough said: Enough said is right and I think you said too much. Better if you don't say anything at all than making comments that are nonsense. Unions don't always mean wins and that goes for all candidates. As you see what happened in Nevada the union endorsement did nothing for Obama. The polls showed Obama winning in New Hampshire only to eat crow when Hillary won. But Obama needs South Carolina because he hasn't won a primary yet. Only a caucaus. Hillary won two primaries so far and will continue to win more primaries.

This is more proof she has the support of many people of different ethnic back grounds. She can and will fight for them. Obama can preach to them.

It seems Obama is playing dirty politics – wooing the Republicans to vote for him – only to defeat Hillary. How low can he go. Also, the strong arm tactics by his campaign officials means that he feels he can do whatever he likes. Although, he says that he does not believe that the SC campaign is about race, he does make it a race issue.

If I were a previous prez and if my wife would be running for the prez, i would fight for her the same way as Bill is doing.

Go Hillary!

Where have you people been? I have been writing about Obama's record for months. Why are you surprised? Doesn't anyone do their own research? Use Congress.org not the candidates websites!

To BCNS with regards to Workinman.....

we've all read it. Over and over again. He copies it into every item. Where have you been?

Has anyone noticed that Obama supporters have pre-typed spiels they keep copying into every post?

Has anyone noticed that the same people keep saying they have changed their minds and would NOW not vote for Clinton?

Independent, and proud of it.

I FOR ONE AM NOT BUYING oBAMAS LIES, hOW COULD PEOPLE BE SO STUPID. i WOULD NEVER VOTE FOR A MAN BASED ON A SPEECH OF INSPIRATION. iT TAKE MORE THAN THAT TO BE PRESIDENT. oBAMA PROVED HOW GREEN HE REALLY IS. iF HE CANT STAND UP TO HILIARY CLINTON, IMAGINE WHAT THE REPUKES WOULD DO TO HIM.

Good job Sen Clinton if you dig or look deep enough you will probably fine there are undocumented people working for the United Farmworkers in the lettuce and onion field in Salinas, California they aren't talking about ,everybody got something they don't want someone to know.

people will most likely be biased. only a few would rise up to being objective. I love Obama's charisma and intelligence but Hillary is really in a class a little ahead of him. He started the personal attacks and then expect Hillary to back down? Bill wasnt on the debate team but Obama dragged his name in? whats Hillary supposed to do? What would Obama have done if Edwards said a thing about Obama's wife? After all Obama's wife and Edwards wife had a little go at each other but the press did make a meal of it. The press also fuels the feud between Obama and Clinton. Hillary made a valid point when she cautioned Obama to be careful what he is getting into.
Do you all remember swiftboat veterans? Do you think the republican propaganda machine will spare fine boy Obama?
We all need to wake up. Hillary showed she is a strong woman and a leader. You cant throw stones and complain about boulders thrown at you. It is the big boys play.

I think it's finally time for people to see Obama for who he really is!! I have friends who were at the Iowa caucuses and the Nevada caucuses. It's shocking the strong arm tactics this "politician" uses. In Iowa his campaign workers for peace and hope were throwing away Clinton literature -and in Nevada I spoke with many people who reported that the Culinary Union told their union workers if they didn't vote for Obama their shifts would be changed so they couldn't caucus.
Most workers were seen in their homes and strong armed into signing pledge cards and were threatened about their jobs.
Here in California Obama is starting the campaign that goes like this "Be a Democrat for a day- if you don't like Hillary vote for Obama" – he's clearly trying to capitalize on Republicans who will vote for a Republican but want to mess with our best choice for president. The media constantly attacks the Clintons and portray Obama as a poor guy being picked on. Hope people realize who the dirty politician is!
I agree with a writer above - the economy is in a free fall – let's get a candidate who speaks in specifics and we know will get out of this National and International mess!!

Yes! Congradulations Ms. Clinton! Practice saying"Madame president". Finally!

To Amused, Las Vegas -January 22, 2008 12:18 pm ET

“There's no evidence she did anything to improve the status of women or make it a very different place in ways Mrs. Clinton's Democratic base would care about," said Liza Featherstone, author of “Selling Women Short: The Landmark Battle for Worker's Rights at Wal-Mart."

I think Hillary is the one for the White House. She has the experience and has always fought for the minority, women and children. I will cast my vote for her. I am a black female and I'm proud to have a black man run for president, but Obama don't have enough experience. He also has made a few statements that he should never have made especially the one about "it's wrong to invision the world as good vs evil. Why does he think we are in a war now? It's because the world has always been a war between good and evil. That was a dumb comment. But it all boils down to experience, and Obama needs to wait a bit longer and get the necessary experience needed to run a Super Power Nation.
Hillary gets my vote. It's time for a female to run the nation, men have made a mess of the government. Maybe a women's touch can revive our great nation.

Rosana

I'm somewhat surprised the UFW would endorse a candidate that voted to build a wall between mexico and the US as well as make anyone aiding an illegal a felon.

Of course obama voted for the same bill.

Less educated or not moved by the Pundits who try so desperately to weaken Mrs.Clinton chances of winning the nomination and of course the Presidency.

brandon butler: Hillary did the right thing attacking Obama and telling the public he was nothing but a slum lord attorney representing evictions. These attorney's are a dime a dozen. She was in the political field at that time and definately has more experience than he ever will. And he was an attorney for a crook that is being investigated. That's not what you call presidential material. First it was drugs and booze, now it is a crooked slum lord. What else are we going to find out about him?

Brandon Butler January 22, 2008 11:49 am The people you associate with tells you alot if that person is now under federal indictment for fraud and pension bilking schemes and worse!!

"Attacking Obama by sayiing he used to represent SLUMLORDS? That is a reflection on character and it was over the line" - TONY REZKO was a long time friend, neighbor, and political fundraiser for Obama.

It's quite an eyeful if you are actually interested in knowing more. The two big Chicago papers have both been printing articles, but have been virtually ignored by the rest of the media until the indictment was just handed down. At the very least it reflects very poorly on Obama's wisdom and judgment... (trust you know how to use the search engine?!)

Hillary is not hiding behind her husband. Didn't you watch the debate where she put Obama in his place. Maybe you had too much to drink. Hillary can take care of herself but she does it in the right manner. If Obama can't tell whose he's running against he should drop out. Bill Clinton has the right to defend his wife like Michelle Obama got on the platform and did some heavy campaigning for her husband. Nothing said about that and she had run of the mouth at that time. I am happy to read that Hillary got a key endorsement in California. I believe Obama is not going to win California, Texas and Arizona. I predicted he would lose Nevada and he did. Hillary will win the big states and capture the nomination even if Obama wins in South Carolina. That will be the first primary he would win since he campaigned compared to Hillary winning New Hampshire and Nevada.

There is only one candidate who will make our country better. If we elect a candidate who not work with the other side will be diggin our hole deeper. Our country needs unity right now. Unless you want to see 8 years of conservatism and then 8 years of liberalism and so on.... Vote for change!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Im glad to see Clinton going to receive another good endorsment. People see she is the most educated of the candidates. People saw Obama take that cheap shot at Clinton and started that whole argument. Im afraid thats the real Obama.

Hillary's foreign affairs adviser, Sandy Berger is the chairman of a company that specializing in offshore outsourcing!

How can anyone endorse the Clintons?!

Hey where is my comment on here!!!! I talked trash on the media and
now they wont let me post on this sight. SHAME ON YOU !!!

To CST,

Google is a wonderful thing.

Shine some light on the Clinton's fraud!

If you thought those Clinton trade deals screwed the working folks, you wait till she passes the wage depressing Amnesty bill.

The working class will become a permanent peasant class.

If Hilary, Bill and Edwards join together, I will change my party. Edwards was right with Obama and Hillary focused on themselves and not the issues. Especially at a time when the Democrats could win, they are giving the Republicans something to pick with later. It concerned me on Martin Luther King's Birthday Holiday, a man who represented peace. Obama mentioned the number of people who registered to vote because of new change, young people. This display could turn them off, and not vote like 4 years ago. And more people will change their party because both parties are same ole same ole.

Go get em' Hillary! New Jersey will deliver our votes to you! I hope and think California will do likewise! She is strong and capable, there is no doubt about that. As an African-American male (25 years old) I am proud to be witnessing the transformation in our politics. The glass ceiling is about to be shattered. I must say that we (men) have had our opportunities to make change and I am all for giving this gentlewoman a chance. She is experienced, strong, capable, smart, tough and will fight for our children, women, men, minority groups. She will represent America well !

Brandon Butler January 22, 2008 11:49 am ET

"Attacking Obama by sayiing he used to represent SLUMLORDS? That is a reflection on character and it was over the line, and she deserved every boo she got for that remark."

I didn't see Obama denying that he worked for them, that he received contributions from them, nor that they were slumlords. All he said is he didn't work for them much.

How can the truth be over the line? And if it wasn't the truth, why didn't Obama deny it?

And in fairness, this was a response to the attack on Hillary that she was on the Walmart board of directors.

Truth be told, she did push better representation for women and minorities while she was there. She pushed for environmental issues while she was there. She did NOT push for unionization while she was there, because it was a battle she could not win, given the makeup of the board.

A board position does not give you the ability to make change by fiat. Improvements were incremental but they were valid.

Go get em' Hillary! New Jersey will deliver our votes to you! I hope and think California will do likewise! She is strong and capable, there is no doubt about that. As an African-American male (25 years old) I am proud to be witnessing the transformation in our politics. The glass ceiling is about to be shattered. I must say that we (men) have had our opportunities to make change and I am all for giving this gentlewoman a chance. She is experienced, strong, capable, smart, touch and will fight for our children, women, men, minority groups. She will represent America well !

Hillary 08

Calling it like it is,

Hill's the ticket. We need experience. I do not want to wait another term for an inexperienced black or white to get it right. To Hill and Bill, because he will always have her back.

Hillary proved she can take on the "big boys"and beat them - even when they double-team her. However, Edwards FINALLY got the message and went after Obama after she raised the subject of his voting "Present" so many times. In addition to winning her points, Hillary proved that Obama can't "walk on water," and that's what made this particular debate the best ever. It's hoped future debates will follow this format of letting the candidates talk unfettered. It brings out their true political and personal character. For example, Obama felt the need to stay on the defensive so much that it's hard to recall one example of how he would handle the issues. His verbal obsession with Bill Clinton did nothing for him except expose his lack of experience in dealing with nuances of running and campaign for a political office.

OMG! What a great debate and so very helpful. How in the world have we allowed ourselves to be duped by Obama with all his empty promises. It was a real eye openner for me…did we all the watch the same debate last night..

Obama voted 'maybe' on a bill that will disallow sex shops to be set up next to schools. Folks, the bill still has not be struck down…how much courage does it take to vote 'yes' to keep porn away from the children.

Obama voted against a bill that would cap credit cards companies from raising the intersted rates on credit cards over 30%. Why? he said it was because it was too high….in essence, he voted to allow credit card companies to have no caps and raise the interest rates as far as they like (edward pointed out the absurd in this thinking). Folks, if you can not cap them at 20% then you cap them at 30%….Obama's logic is flawed. Obama is playing the voters stupid by twisting and playing scrable with his words. Hear, listen and think. I learned much from last night's debate.

Fun to watch the Clinton lemmings ramble on. Workin man, great post. Hill praisers should read it twice.

Note to Billary:

Tony Rezko?

What's that about?

Here is the formula:

If someone endorses Obama its fantastic. Even that shady Cullinary Union.

If someone endorses Clinton, its RIGGED somehow , or the entire 100,000 person union is stupid.

Would you expect anything different, since the majority of them are mexicans!

1) The political leadership of the Latino-Latina voters has been opportunistic historically. They don't stand up for any principles.
2) the American unionism in general and its leadership in particular is the mirror image of the American corporatism: self-serving, hedging their political bets, and shortsighted.

In this context, union endorsment is pretty much meaningless.

Brandon Butler January 22, 2008 11:49 am ET

Clare: what does it tell you about a candidate for president by the people at endorse them?
*****
There is nothing wrong with being on the board of directors of walmart and being a democrat. Warren Buffet is a democrat and a among the richest who sits on numerous boards.

The choice either Democrat President who will bring in some semblence of normalcy to US or a Republican President who will maintain a status quo or an independent in form of may be Bloomberg.

The lesser of the evils is a Democrat or an Independent at this point. Today's market crash that has been created by wait and see policy of Bush administation also lend credibility to this theory.

Republican administration is so steeped in creating a problem and then solving it, rather than providing a solution to keep US economy and peoples incomes stable and allow them to rise.

So Brandon..Did he represent a SLUMLORD? Yes he did and made a lot of money off him. Why do you think Obama is so untouchable with his record? Hillary pointed out ANOTHER fact that Obama did not want to answer with and honest response.

Not surprising. Hillary has received many more union endorsements that Obama or Edwards. Both Obama and Edwards have worked directly with union organizations before at the ground level. Hillary has not. Hillary gets these union endorsements because of Bill Clinton's political clout.

Do the math!! Super tues shes ahead (and some way ahead) in all but two states in the polls. Shes got it...I dont see how Obama can win in the major states

Hey 'Callin' it like I see it'! She also CRIES to get her way!

Clare: what does it tell you about a candidate for president by the people at endorse them?

Absolutely nothing.

I sw the debate last night. I saw the attacks. Attacking Hillary by saying she used to represent the folks on the board of WalMart is not dirty politics; not unless it's not true. Representing Walmart executives is no reflection on her character.

Attacking Obama by sayiing he used to represent SLUMLORDS? That is a reflection on character and it was over the line, and she deserved every boo she got for that remark.

hey Caliin' it like I see it.

Is Hillary 's husband Bill on the debate yesterday or you did not watch the debate. She stood and spoke for herself. Anyone who watched that debate with Objectivity, will see the intelligence and the experience of that woman on display.

She will be a strong President who has compassion for poor and middle class...
Go Hillary)8

Workin man, where are you pulling these numbers from? Could you post a source for these claims. I would be interested in reading it.

Did not look like she was hiding behind him last night. Looked like Obama was out of his leage. He had to try and take shoots at Bill who was not even on stage.

Go Hillary!!!!

The reality is that at this time in our country we need someone who can galvanize Americans and bring unity to the political parties. Obama is the only candidate who can do this. Many Republicans are less likely to work with Hillary because of her demeanor and their past feelings about her husband's presidency. We need a President who can inspire Americans and our neighbors around the world. John Edwards might a number of important issues to the position; however, I don't believe that he'll be able to last in the long run come November. True, Obama has a lack of experience but I trust him to put those persons in place, in his cabinet, who are best able to advise him on foreign policy and bring America to its true potential. After all, the job of the President is to choose the best cabinet members for America's best interest. And currently our best interest is to unite for all of our common goals. The SC debate faired well for Obama, he stood firm against the attacks of Edwards and Clinton, even against the untrue attacks of former President Clinton. It's truly shameful that our former President has gotten into a slander battle. It's disgraceful actually. You can campaign for your spouse without making personally false statements about other candidates.

Lastly, about Bill Clinton being the first Black President...I mean c'mon. Must we seriously entertain that question? It's an insult to every American. Still, Obama answered the question with poise, class, and humor. Three characteristics only Obama can bring to the top job of the United States.

We heart you in California, Hillary!!! We love you too, Bill, but it's Hillary's time to shine.

If Hillary Clinton is so tough then why is she hiding behind her husband?

Go Hillary! She's going to make a killing in New York and California

As a former union organizer, I am glad that the Farmworkers are coming out in support of Hillary; this union is what unions are supposed to be. UNITE HERE –the real "culinary worker's" union backs Obama; they are currently under investigation for racketeering. What does this tell you about the two candidates????

The Clinton’s have a long history fighting for the working people of America!!

N.A.F.T.A. and the W.T.O. – The Clinton’s gave us these disastrous trade deals that have destroyed our middle class and sent our good paying blue-collar jobs away

Hillary Clinton served on Wal-Mart's board of directors for six years when her husband was governor of Arkansas. Also, the infamous Rose Law Firm where she was a partner handled many of the company's legal affairs.

Hillary Clinton was paid $1,500 for each Wal-Mart meeting she attended and accumulated at least $100,000 in Wal-Mart stock.

Hillary has Terry McAuliffe running her campaign. This is the sleazy guy who walked away with several MILLION DOLLARS of UNION PENSION MONEY. Court documents show McAuliffe took $2.45 million from the IBEW pension fund.

The Clinton's take credit for the economy of the late 1990s. That was of course because of the Internet boom that started in 1995 and went bust in 2000. We all made a ton of money. Everybody paid income tax on that money. That influx to the treasury also led to an income bubble for the Government. At least on paper, we had a short-term balanced budget. BIG DEAL!! That was a fluke the Clintons had nothing to do with.

What happened to all the bloggers today?
This is a good indication that Obama was beaten up last night

Sen. Clinton showed she is not afraid to fight, she fought both Edwards and Obama in New Hampshire, she fought them in nevada and she continues the fight. Dr. Martin Luther King would be proud of this group of candidates, peraps Obama is right that he may not endorse one over the other but this is one thing for sure this woman senator is tough and she has a message and it is a message of experience and hope. we have a market that may bottom out in the next few days, we have a FED that is panicking and we have the president talking about tax cuts for the rich (again). this is Ronal Reagan economics all over again and these ideas of the republicans are being appreciated by Sen. Obama? this is a race of experience and Sen. Clinton has it and will deliver.

if you have money and are looking at the market it is best to hold on to it for a day or so, you may make a bit of a profit after Bush decides to enrich the wealthy and they feel like moving the market up again (bubble), just make sure you get off the ride before it bursts and we go into the real depression.

This truly makes me sad. My party has lost its mind if we nominate for. She will loose the Republican Machine will unite against her and it will be a sad day for America.

Of course. She's getting an endorsement of one of the most entrenched and powerful lobbying organizations in America.

HILLARY IS LIKE ROCKY, TAKES A PUNCH AND JUST KEEPS ON TICKING. WATCH OUT APOLLO CREED AND MR. T.

The race is getting boring with H. Clinton leading. I did hope for a more close competition, but Obama and his crowd let me down...

We are proud to stand up and show our support for Hillary in Illinois.

Exit polls revealed Clinton voters are less educated.

Why is this important? Hillary’s appeal is premised on the fact that her husband was President during a good economy in his second term.

Clinton takes credit for the Internet boom that started in 1995 and went bust in 2000. That boom increased income tax money paid to the Government. We had a short-term balanced budget. That was a fluke that the Clintons had nothing to do with.

Hillary Clinton’s nomination depends on the, “I was workin’ lots cuzza da Clintons” crowd that is uneducated and uninformed.

Hillary claims to have leadership experience based on her Husband’s time in office. The fact is that she did not even have a security clearance and had little to no policy input after her embarrassing healthcare failure early in the first term.

Clinton’s whole basis for winning will be easily deflated during the general election campaign. Just imagine a question to Hillary in a Presidential debate; How did Bush cause the recession that started just 2 months into his Presidency, before any of his policies had been implemented? The economy started slowing 7 months before Bush took over.

When her premise for why she should be elected is discredit, the Republicans will win.

Maybe the less educated should not pick our nominee!

Hillary has NO leadership experience!

Hillary IS polarizing!

Hillary is a NOT change!!!
