Whats wrong with people this is not a game. This is serious. The media makes mockery of this whole campaign.

Bill Clinton should not only be allowed back in the White House, he has no right to praticipate in our governing process. HE IS A SERIOUS THREAT TO THIS COUNTRY ! ! !

No felon is allowed to even vote. WHERE IN THE LAW IS HE EXCLUDED?

This man was impeached! How in the name of common sence is this man allowed to determine who will be the most important leader in the world! ! !?

The fact that she, Hillary Clinton is married to this thing should automatically disqualify her.

WAKE UP PEOPLE THIS IS A SERIOUS SITUATION.

Obama needs to get out of the mud fight with them and return to the issues and his vision of the future for our great nation.

Isn't that Jeb Bush Country? Likely why your voting for Obama
the Candidate whom the Republicans can beat and rip apart....hence put them in office.....So you must be a Republican, yes?

If Obama can't take the criticisms and/or distortions, he should just drop out. Other politicians have created worse campaigns. And... it's not as if he never created a smear campaign. Who is he to call the kettle black? I dare say, pure hypocrisy.

He says that he's bringing something new. Something fresh. What does he mean by that? When he says he wants to implement tougher measures to fight crime, how would he go about it? Is he pro-lethal injection? Pro-choice or Pro-life? Or maybe, he'll just vote present every single time.

It was his team that started the race card. When Oprah Windfrey a former Clinton supporter went on national TV and said I am proud today to announce my endorcement of an Afican American candidate and a proud black man for President. I will do everything I can do to help him make history and beocme the first African American President. Nothing about his cridentials in the endorcement.

Then it was Collin Powell on Fox stating we could see history being made because an African American man may become President and I am proud of him for that. Again nothing about his cridentials.

Then the republicans started adding fuel to the fire Hannity on is talk show talking about the Clinton's playing the race card, Bennet on CNN during the Nevada primary talking about how the Clintons are playing the race card. All knowing that if the keep it alive the African American community leaders will run with it.

Today on MSNBC was another African American leader attacking the Clinton's on playing the race card and how when it comes to the primary the African community will not forget and will rise up against the Clintons and there so call black President Bill. And if she wins the African American community will remember then. Again playing right into the republicans hands. I want to remind the African American community there are more white voters in America then African American.

I have read and listened to African Amercan leaders stat that it was the Clinton's that strarted the race war to take advantage of the election. Are you crazy? What ever would the white Clinton's gain by making the African American community angry? Sen Clinton had over 70% of the African American vote rpior to the Obama team starting the race war. Since it has started she now only has 17% of the African American vote so do you really think they gained by starting this. Look at the team that gained and you will see who started it. Obama's team played the African American people like a fiddle and they followed right along. EVIL

Lets vote on issues not whos African American, White, Female or anything else. Just vote on issues please and right now Sen Clinton has the best plan for the issues followed by Sen Edwards. I have not heard any issues lately for Sen Obama except his color.

You're all falling into the news media's traps to "sell news" instead of looking at the candidates themselves in their campaigns/debates and what they see as real issues and what needs to be done. They, like every American, have the right to speak their minds, and, we, as voters, have the right to believe what they say or not ,as well as comment on what they say. There is an awful lot of negativity emitting in the previous comments, and, it appears that it is the "people" that are ruining the Democratic party....not the candidates.

Would it be better if we for once apply our energy and minds to the goal of getting what we need and deserve from our government? Like economic stability for all Americans. I feel that if my earnings would just keep up with my needs, not wants, I could afford to take care of myself. Then, the government would not have to worry about my well being. Our leaders could work on things like ending the war, securing our borders, gaining oil independence, repair our countries infrastructure, regulating foreign imports, educating our children and on, and on, and on…

We can’t change history, and history should not predicate the future, but it does and will.

R U Sure of this guy? Which country he was living in for last 10-15 years. Oh may be in Indonesia.

Also, why does Hillary keep touting her experience. The big move she made was to get health insurance coverage for folks when Bill was in office, and we all know what a failure she was there, mostly because she cannot "work and play well with others."

Is Obama perfect, or even close? No. On the other hand, I think that old saying about "Better the devil you know than the devil you don't know" is one that can lead people into disaster. It did when people re-elected Baby Bush.

In spite of all the "dissing" back and forth in the debate, it was obvious that Obama was "back on his heels" when asked to answer anything substantive. As time goes on his lack of qualifications for the job will become more evident. And he will continue to distract the media and his audiences with "Clinton bashing" and/or bland "Change" chants that no one can disagree with.

Bye, Bye!

- How is Hillary going to stop the losses of American jobs to overseas competition when she favors outsourcing and has brought the #1 outsourcer of US jobs to India into New York?

- How would Hillary encourage the return of manufacturing to America – we don't make a TV, a DVD player, a computer, or even a darn video game anymore.

- How will Hillary end the war? She claims to be opposed to it, but is on record as saying we may be there for "decades".

- Why does Bill Clinton speak for her over and over again? Why can't she speak to us herself?

I am a self-employed white male, age 35, liberal, widower with 1 child, registered Democrat currently living in Texas, but I will vote Republican or abstain from voting if Hillary is the Nominee. I will also encourage my fellow constituents to do the same. I cannot in good conscience support the very kind of behavior that we so desperately wish to leave behind in politics. We are better than that. We deserve better. It is by far time that we have a much higher bar in politics.

Hey, Everybody:
A lot of people here are saying that if Hillary gets the nomination, they will vote Republican for the first time in their lives. You know what–if you do that, it means the machine wins and you no longer count. How about do what I"m doing–if Hillary wins the nomination, I will REFUSE TO VOTE for the first time in my life.

Don't be forced to vote for someone you don't believe in. Just don't vote.

In fact, the more people who don't vote the better. It's all crooked anyway. I think maybe the only way for us to take our democracy back is by refusing to vote.

Think about it.
------------------------------------

Abe, not voting means you'd be indifferent ... I could not stand idle by. My family and I would do whatever we can to stop the travesty of a Billary ticket (Would they actually select a photo-op 'vice' president ?)

I fought against King George II from day one ... and it was difficult in 2000 because of the Clinton scandals. In 2004 the doctrin of fear won against the obvious and another run for the Royal Billaries will burn another general election for the Democrats.
No, I would vote against Billary, I would contribute to the opponent's campaign and I would put up signs in my yard for the opponent's campaign !

Talk about a fairy tale!

They will stonewall her just to protest her bing in office. We will have a stagnant Congress and Senate for her term. There will be absolutely no change in anything, because the government won't do anything except spend millions investigating the Clinton's for 4 years.

ANYONE BUT HILLARY '08

Look where that got us!!

Sen. Obama lost in NH because he could not get the "youth" vote to the polls. It's not the Clintons fault.

At the same time, Obama needs to grow a pair and start hitting back. She's Hillary Clinton for crying out loud, the job is almost done for you. You don't even need to run fictional ads, just run with the truth – Iraq War, NAFTA, you know the drill. Then run that ad again and again until your propaganda machine is heard as much as hers is. No one's asking you to lie, but if you won't fight back for what you believe in how do you expect us to vote for you?

Why waiting moderation?

You are confused, because the president you're thinking of was a Republican, and his name was Ronald Reagan. He took a defecit and economy in a recession from Jimmy Carter, when we had gas lines and Carter was on TV telling everybody to turn their heat down and wear a sweater, and turned it into a thrivnig economy with a balanced budget and a surplus, inside of his 8 years.

And don't forget that we also had the strongest military under Reagan. American hostages were held for months during the Carter years. Hostages were given back the day Reagan took office, and we had no threats of terrorism or attacks against us, period, under Reagan. Clinton made huge cuts to the military budget, and weakend the military considerably from what it was during the Reagan years. Wonder why we've been attacked over and over again since?

Clinton has a right to challenge Obama's record. And he hasnt been shy about challenging hers.

We look at the candidates and see what who would do a better job. I am wholy convinced Clinton would.

Politicians dont just wave a magic wand and get bi partisan agreements. If Obama could make the HONEST case he could get the job done better than Clinton, I would vote for him.

Calling Obama 'CLEAN' and Clinton 'DIRTY' is probably the dumbest and most naive thing I read on these boards. They are ALL dirty, no matter what 'Honest Al ' platform they are trying to sell.

I am a family man with a wife and daughter. I dont care about all this song and dance. I dont care if Obama claims he is the great Uniter. I dont care if Bill was president before. All I care about is my family . I care about the ecomony , ending the war in Iraq , and restoring our image across the world.

Is this too much to ask?

He never suggested that these policies were good, just that REagan was successful getting them through, and that for whatever reason or another, Reagan seemed to transcend politics.

Bill and Hillary are up to old tricks, and in my opinion highly lacking in ethic. I voted for Bill twice, and for a democrat in just about every other election on the national, state and local level. But after that display the other night, it leaves me wanting for an independent. (no Mr. Dobbs, your rants had nothing to do with that, I still think you are a big fat bag of hot air)

Hillary is polarizing, and in my opinion once again, not the right figure for what we need. Many people absolutely loathe her, and I am starting to fall in that camp as well.

Obama is not off the hook either. I still have yet to hear any substance from either of them, but he is all about fancy speeches and "inspiration" His big time senate endorsments is just an indicator of the boys club in the senate, and all of those clowns trying to forecast who will be the winning ticket.

Edwards, although I just don't see his policies as practical, is the only one that actually tells us his policies. The repubicans are absolute joke this go around, but members of my party should think long and hard before they pull that lever, and examine their motives before they do.

that is the double teaming C strategy and the media is buying it hook line and...

Our nation is above all of this, but not our status quo politicians.

A fresh perspective, a real leadership style is coming, has arrived.

South Carolina you have the privledge to vote for good, solid change.

The kind of change we need is on your ballot South Carolina, vote change.
