CNN

Jane that's a foolish question please find the kiddie board !!!

DO YOU THINK HILLARY OR OBAMA ARE THE BEST PEOPLE FOR THE UNIDED STATES.

I DON'T

Independent maybe your the one that suck the big one!!!!!

Becky you are foolish !!!! Try researching the Clintons. You are the ignorant sheep!!!! You must like having smoke blown up your rear like the rest of the Clintons supporters !!!!

Is Obama an American born citizen.???? It concerns me as there are so many stories about him i dont think we have ever got the truth. If he is not an American born citizen why is he being allowed to run for our presidency.
We dont need a foreigner running our country.

TEXAS FOR HILLARY

I'm glad I'm not the only one doing my own research. Some people just take what he says for gospel. I'm not one of them. I researched each candidate myself. Google is a wonderful tool.
You are right he did say he voted against the war, but he couldn't have voted against it because he wasn't in the US Senate in 2002. He made a speech in 2002 where he opposed the war and then in 2004 he said his possition on the Iraq war was the same as Pres. Bush's. Pres. Bush has been for the war from the start. Now he's opposed to it again.

I can't blame Clinton or any of the Senators that actually voted for the war because back then I was for it as well. Most of the country was. That is due to the lies told to us by Bush's Adm. She has since admitted to it being a mistake, I give her alot of credit for admitting it. We are human and we have all made mistakes, its how we learn.

He voted 130 "Present" and the answer he gave for doing that is BS.
His voting record in the US Senate is just as bad.

He voted against a 30% freeze cap on credit card inerest , because it was too high? What the heck was he thinking? That answer showed just how inexperienced he is.
He's for single payer on health care, then at the debate late week he argued he never said he was.

Then he goes and does business with a man who is being investigated by the Feds. It was known he was being investigated.

He goes back and forward so often, someting I don't think he knows what his stand is on any issue.

Everyone!!! I just met Obama!! He is very awesome and down to earth!! It is time for some fresh blood in Washington!! Vote Obama '08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA IS THE BEST OF THEM ALL......BELIEVE IT,PERIOD,END OF STORY!!!

First, Obama claims the republicans were the party of ideas for a big chunk of time. Then when called on the comment, he says that he never said those were GOOD ideas nor did he say he AGREED with those ideas. So one has to ask why didn't he simply say the republicans were the party of bad/poor ideas for a big chunk of time? I will tell you why. Obama wanted it to go both ways- he was appealing to republicans by invoking the name of their hero Reagan, and then he wanted to keep an out for himself by being able to say he never said those ideas were good.
Folks meet Obama the divider. Wait, maybe i really mean uniter. Huh???
Mark my words, Obama will divide the Democrats and will lose the election for us democrats. Stick with Hillary who tackles issues, not people.
Wake up and read the writing on the wall- Obama NEVER says what he means and apparently never means what he says.
Why isn't the media questioning his comment and subsequent negative ads?

RESPONSE TO DAN,NJ.
THE TRUTH STANDS OUT LIKE OBAMA. IF YOU CAN NOT BE IN THE RIGHT POSITION AT THIS POLITICAL MOMENT,I SEE YOU AS ONE WHO IS BEHIND SCHEDULE TO HELP AMERICA OUT OF HER DEGENERATING POLITICAL ECONOMIC SITUATION.
ENJOY YOUR FRANCHISE TO VOTE,BUT WEIL NOT IN THE DAYS TO COME WHEN THE DOLLAR SHALL BE $2.00 TO THE EURO,GAS PRICE SHALL BE $4.00 PER GALLON(REGULAR). WE AMERICANS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN TO BIASED TO SEE THE TRUTH,AFTER ALL WE WERE CONCEIVED IN SIN,BORN IN SIN AND REARED IN SIN SO THE TRUTH IS A MILLION MILES AWAY.
ENJOY!!!

Is this Star Trek. ... or is Obama a "Change-Lean" . Suddenly he sounds just like everybody else.

Dan, NJ

Obviousy, you missed what I wrote. Yes, now he does say he "opposes" the war.He didn't do that before. Even at the very first debates he was still saying, "I'm the only one up here on this stage who voted against the war." Obviously, he was told to change it. But the fact remains and I say this because I know people who are supporting him he do say he VOTED against the war. He did not! And, again, I wonder what he would have done if he had been faced with that decision. As we know, Monday morning quarterbacks are a dime a dozen! He can sway voters all he wants–he"ll never sway me. I look at issues. I "oppose" the war as well, but I am still behind Hillary. Why, well for starters because of the work and legislation she has introduced and spoken out on when it comes to children and women and Hispanics who ALSO left behing. As for the war–we are there and if your vote is going to go simply bacause of that then go for it. I look broader than that. Often packages can be deceiving because of the pretty paper and ribbon, but once you open the box the gift may not amount to much! Hillary will aways be a target, but she's got what it takes to take it on.

Let's talk about Obamas voting record. As state legislator , which was a part-time position, he voted 130 times "present". In his book AUDACITY OF HOPE (page 130) Obama explained that even as a minority legislator,"You must vote yes or no on whatever bill comes up, with the knowledge that it's unlikely to be a compromise that either you or your supporters consider fair and or just." Americans are searching for their next leader. That president will be faced with countless difficult decisions on numerous gray issues and voting "present" will not be an option. His voting record in the US Senate Since Jan. 6 ,2005 he has be absent , not voted 177 times out of 1086 votes. He was elected to represent the people of Illinois. So when search for our next leader forget the rhetoric, gender or skin color , we need someone who on day one can face the issues head on , make those tough decisions....

i pray its not Hillary as i would have to vote MC Cane makes me ill to think about it the Clintons are showing that win no matter the meny lies you tell people forget how you get there they make me as ill as the Republican s

Hillary's ad is founded in fact. For goodness sakes, anyone can read the Obama transcript for the interview and see EXACTLY what he said. He was clearly trying to pander to the Nevada Republicans to have them cross over to the Democratic caucus.

Obama's radio ad is founded in falsehoods. She NEVER said NAFTA was a "boon". Nevertheless, the Obama campaign keeps saying the same thing over and over again in hopes that it will stick. And for Obama, a Democrat, to say that Hillary will say and do anything to get elected is nothing more than a REPUBLICAN talking point! Obama is the divisive candidate, trying his best to divide and polarize the Democratic party. That's unfortunate. He would be better served sticking to his "hope" message; because what he's saying right now, ain't hope.....it's whiny, it's bitter, it's divisive.

TEXAN for Hillary,

You say you are an informed voter, and I'm sure that's true, but you seem to imply Obama has not addressed the isses or his record in the state senate or U.S. senate. All of this information has been made public and is readily available.

Concerning the Iraq war, Obama spoke out against it before the war. He doesn't say he did not vote for the war, he points out correctly that Hillary and Edwards did. Indeed, Hillary was one of the most hawkish Democrats as she was obviously trying to toughen her image for her presidential run. Calculated move that put personal ambition and bad judgment ahead of the country's best interests. And if you remember, after 9/11 Bush/s approval rating was in the 90's. It took a great deal of courage to go against Bush's policies in the face of those polling numbers. A courage Hillary did not (and likely does not) have.

One other point. Obama has done a very good job reaching independents, some Republicans and a large number of Democrats. Hillary alienates many Democrats, has done poorly with Independents, and is loathed by Republicans. Often times, rightly or wrongly, members of Congress (particularly the House) bend to the opinions of the people. The point is, talk is not cheap. A president who can sway the population and rally support across party lines is in a much better position to get things done.

Been a registered Republican for twenty years and yesterday signed up with the Obama website.

Democrats – catch a clue!!!!

Obama is a once in a lifetime candidate.

If Obama responds tit-for-tat, I see folks say he is whining and being distracted from the issues. If he does not go tit-for-tat then the same group of folks tend to say he's implicitly agreeing or simply too whimpy to stand up and shoot back. And, in this case especially, what is being overlooked is the idiocy of Clinton. She is essentially saying that Republicans cannot have good ideas and Democrats cannot agree with or ever give credit to a Republican idea. If you ever wondered how she would function as a President, there you go... She is dividing her own party in the leadership race, since a win for herself is the only outcome that matters to her. And, she has no capacity to work with the Republicans if she were President. She makes George Bush look outright collabotative.

Texas For Hillary

Face the music. Hillary is not ready

Voted for a war in Iraq, and then in 2007 voted for a War with Iran.

Same old experience is needed today.

Change

Good Comment!

However we need change

Obama 08

Randy S. Lawton, OK:

I do not have blinders on. That is why I am not supporting Obama. I do not take people on face value. I look beyond the surface, and not just take what they say as gospel. Talk is cheap. I don't take sound bites nor the opinions of commentators and the media to help me decide whom to vote for. I invest time and energy in keeping up with the issues that affect me personally, my city, state, and the country. I also look at the entire picture and am not narrow-minded. I am not an uninformed voter. The more informed American voters are, the better. Unfortunately, this isn't always the case.

I do believe Obama cannot handle the political pressure. He is demonstrating just that. He comes across as the poor soul who is being attacked by untruths, etc. Harping on Bill Clinton. It's obvious that the media is manipulating this campaign–exaggerating and twisting everything that is said about him. In my opinion, President Clinton is a scapegoat. The media is giving the perception that Obma is the good guy. Good strategy I suppose. This way he can avoid addressing the real issues of this country, and what he has done and will do. Instead, he and his campaign can spend time complaining and working to convince the undecided voter how negative Hillary and her campaign and vote for him.

Obama I'm sure has made mistakes as well in his political career. It bothers me a great deal when he constantly said he "didn't vote for the war." He couldn't have, as he was a State senator and not a US Senator. That is misleading. Now, he says he "consistently opposed the war." But many people actually believe he voted against the war when in fact he couldn't vote. Some voters do not know the difference and he and his campaign has used to their advantage.

He is not perfect as he is being portrayed and you would like to believe.. Read Time Magazine article The Fresh Face by Joe Klien/10/15//06…. (He once–accidentally, he says–voted against a bill to "protect our children from sex offenders.") YOU, take your blinders off. It's amazing what you will find and discover.

Since when is defending yourself being a crybaby? Please people...

People are only voting fo Hillary because she is popular. It is a high-school mentality that will get her in the whitehouse. She is not the most experienced politician, like her supporters love to say, because she's only been in th US senate for two years! There are scores of longtime Democratic politicians with resumes longer than the listing of lies she has been spreading this campaign season.

The only reason she's a viable candidate is because of her popularity. So you people can keep folling yourself and thinking your voting in some 'amazingly experienced candidate,' but in reality you're not. Your voting in an ex-presidents wife because she was popular, and she became popular after being a public victim(Lewinsk)

So If you want to judge what has become of this country's critical thinking, you only need to look at this election.

Obama, by the way, has been proving his skills as a negotiator and an important legislator from day one. And just as our country starts to really fall apart, and just when we really need someone with his sort of skills, here comes hillary and the lie-machine and the American people just lap it up like dogs without a brain..

You will reap what you sow. This is only a popularity contest.

Randy S. Lawton: Man, you sure have it all figured out, don't you? Too bad your logic is so obscured by your rabid fervor for Obama. All the people you singled out wrote legitimate articles. You are way to full of yourself. Your criticism of these folks was cheap, stupid, and verging on the hysterical. Get ahold of yourself, Man. Then maybe some of your opinions will carry at least some degree of credence.

Barack should stay on offense with all the mud he can grab. Over the last 15 years they've given him all the mud he needs and then some. This is it, he's gotta use it, or he will lay in their political wake just like everyone else who's ever confronted them. It is distressing to see the ease at which they can lie.
Barack is the better person who is trying to stay "above the fray", but they are successfully spinning this upstanding behavior as to make him look weak, and it's working. He can't allow her to slap him all over the stage.

He needs a knockout punch before Super Tuesday. He needs to break her down emotionally and make her snap for all the country to see, it can be done.
Don't worry about the female demographic, If they were voting for Hillary, they would never vote for a Republican anyway!.

Pa guy So if Obama gets the nomination will you vote for a Republican? or will you just not vote?

Tony in Bama: 'Fraid you got it backwards, son. Obama didn't go into the gutter 'til he was dragged there by the Clinton BS machine.

Hailey: You said "Thank God the voters are smarter than the media and obama give them credit for."

After reading your rant, you are proving your own statement false. And I love the way you use terms like 'we' and 'no one' in your rant. Sounds more like your personal opinion, misguided and ignorant of reality as it may be.

Pa Guy: Maybe Hillary supporters won't vote for Obama should he be the nominee, but I guarantee that Obama supporters will vote GOP should Hillary become the nominee.

TEXAN for HILLARY: What do you mean he can't handle the pressure? That is exactly what he is doing with his counter-ad. He is responding to and handling the pressure. That is how it's done in Political campaigns. Take off your blinders and open your mind. It's amazing what you might discover.

TN: You're not a SMART 76 YEARS OLD; you're a narrowminded, frustrated, manhating female who would vote for the first woman to have a shot at the office, regardless of merit. The fact that you say you've heard all the answers you care to speaks volumes. So close your ears and close your mind and waste your vote.

Obama said he would not run again because his wife wouldn't let him if he loses now. What kind of fight and leadership is that. If he can't even stand up to his own wife and say I'm in this for the long haul regardless of winning or losing the nomination, than how is he going to stand up against the Republicans? Oh I'm sure Barak will once again claim that he never said that or that wasn't what he meant. Why does such a wimp sound so familiar? Oh that's right-it was the wimp the Democrats nominated in 2004: JOHN KERRY (who now gave his wimpy whiny support to Obama).

Barak in 08 = Republican President in 09, 10, 11, 12

I don't want to squander the best chance we have at correcting yet another failed Bush Presidency. Of course, if we had nominated someone stronger in 04, we may have been well on our way to fixing the Bush mess. But Alas, we had Kerry and his supporters (who are now Obama supporters) helping the Republicans win in 2004.

Hillary Clinton does not have the character to be president. Oh, I forgot one does not need character to be the president, so she will fit right in with George Bush. Hillary wont change a thing. If you like George Bush vote for Hillary Clinton.

Scott Tas Australia

Vote for Edwards, that takes a vote away from clinton

Obama 08

he a wimp if he does not respond
thats what happen to Kerry with President bush

If the information is not accurate he should speak out.

She voted for war with iraq and now voted again for war with Iran

Her experience is old, broken and irrelevant.

Obama 08

South Carolina lost more factory jobs than any other state besides MI, due to the Clinton NAFTA Treaty.

We need change from Day one, not more of the same.

obama 08

experiece is nothing when you vote for a War twice!

To All Obama posters:

We understand what is going on here. We are all frustrated that some people cannot look at what really happened objectively. We see the games that "Billary" Plays. I personally have lost ALL repect for Hillary. She had the chance to really do something good but she is so "Blinded" by her run for the President that she can't even see straight. Obama has been forced to defend himself and some people see that as "Whinning" or being a "Cry Baby". So now we are going to stoop to name calling and do things the same old way.

Let her have the White House it is in such shambles, why would we want Obama to inherit that mess????

All we wanted was for someone to campaign fairly, Unite the Party's to get things done and to address the concerns of the American people.

the truth must be spoken! go Obama!
Clinton' lies will wake up their supporters very soon!

There is no difference between black, white , red, or yellow, MEN. You all think the same and act the same WHEN IT COMES TO POWER!!!!. – I THINK IT'S TIME TO CHANGE THE GENDER -YOU HAVE HAD YOUR CHANCE AS HEAD OF THIS GREAT COUNTRY FOR MANY YEARS.(AND YOU HAVE REALLY MESSED UP THIS WORLD.) , WOMEN OF ALL COLORS KNOW THIS TO BE TRUE. . HILLARY IS SMART,A GOOD PERSON, STOOD BY HER MAN !! AND HAS EXPERIENCE TO MOVE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTIOIN FOR OUR COUNTRY. DON"T BOTHER TO ANSWER – JUST THINK ABOUT IT,–BECAUSE I HAVE HEARD ALL THE ANSWERS -I CARE TO HEAR. SINGED – A SMART 76 YEARS OLD , SO THERE.,.

Bill Clinton is the ex-president, why do we care what he says? if there is any african american that doesn't think that now is the time for an intelligent, well spoken, isssue addressing, african american to be president should read the Willie Lynch letter, or do you even know who that is. do the research people and come together for once in your life. For decades you have being voting, now is the time to make it really count. MLK, had the dream and yes dreams really can come true. Obama is not only the best canidate, but the best of the best for this United States.

That is democry in democratic party ? am only watching whatl happens at the end- peoples choice. That wil help me figure what America has become of.

Did Obama and his supporters honestly believe that his campaign journey was completely hands off! If he cannot put up with the pressure then he should not be in the presidential race. At least Hilliary knows what it's like and has the polticial courage to face it and endure it. And, he wants to get the nomination and then be President–shoot he can't handle the pressure now he'll crumble when the GOP come at him. I think he's spent too much trying to impress people of his "greatness" but in reality he's not up to handling the pressure of a political campaign much less the presidency. Obama, go home!

Amy in Cincy posted:
"If I hear one more person call Obama a cry baby, I'm going to puke."

Puke away Amy. Obama is a crybaby. Obama has no trouble dishing it out, but when it gets slung back into his face, all he does is whine. His supporters do as well. This man is as dirty as they come and does not shrink from slinging mud. Obama has been the most Party polarizing figure in the Democratic party in my lifetime. Should he win the nomination (yeah, like thats going to happen!) Hillary suporters wont vote for him and vice versa. That will stick us with at least 4 more years and probably 8 of a Republican White House. That paints a pretty picture doesnt it?

His was supposed to be the campaign of hope. He has me hoping all right. Hoping that he gets run over by a bus...

Why are people calling Obama a whiner? He is just trying to put light to the Clinton's many many lies. And, by the way, who the the queen of crocodile tears in new hampshire. Obama didn't send his pundits to call her out, although we could all see how fake she was being.
Here is what intelligent people saw from her performance.
"Waa Waa, I want to be president. I miss living in the whitehouse. Oh boo hoo."

I am a supporter of Sen. Obama, but feel that Hillary is invincible. Sen. Obama is honest, optimistic and inspiring- but weak! Hillary is deceitful, dishonest, and selfish- but definitely a powerhouse! She is very skillful at manipulating Hispanics and females (Hillary can produce tears– and yes, females buy it and she is promising illegal immigrants (primarily Hispanics) all these wonderful things– including driver licenses– and of course they buy it) . Wow, what gullible factions. All the while, African Americans get to sit in the back seat again.

I saw the S.C. debate and thought to myself– there are many things Obama can bring up and address, but instead he was on the defense almost the whole time– obviously not prepared for Hillary's rapid fire. I am convinced that the Clintons can get away with murder, if they want to! I despise both Hillary and the Republicans. It will be a wonderful competition in the November to see which axis of evil is more powerful.

The problem with running for office is that there are many ways to take things out of context. It would be nice if that wasn't done, but it will be. Obama is taking steps to fight what he believes are things taken out of contex that make him look bad. Clinton is doing that as well.

John Kerry provided the lesson. When Kerry was running for president, he ignored those from the swift boat group. I read that book that they put out. If Kerry had been running in the 1980's, he'd be toast, but it was not. The Kerry lesson is that you need to answer attacks quickly. These two are starting to do this.

To Norman
Thanks for using my adlib word even if it was out of context. For everybody else who wants to know the truth go to factcheck.com. They both have distorted the facts good souce for getting to the truth. I have noticed several other sources correcting the mis-statements from the candidates so why the supporters so angry? Hillary supporters are a bit too much because the Clintons have always been known to lie! Calling Obama names just won't conceal that fact.

Amy in Cincy- Obama is real cry baby:)

I have a question for the anti-Obama people: do you really think that the American people are stupid enough to be affected by your pathetic emphasis on his middle name?

A great uniter? Hes ripping the democratic party apart, not hillary. Obama's a fraud with zero chance of beating the republicans.

I just saw the clip of the Clintons dancing on stage, laughing and having such a good time. It must be nice not to have any worries about money. How did they ever get so wealthy? Then I read the next CNN artical about the auto industry loosing more good paying jobs. This was the result of NAFTA and was signed into law by a democrat who promised change. He said it was time for America to turn the page and go from an Industrial country to a " service country". This was a Republican bill that needed to be defeted by whomever we elected. Where did this poor boy from Arkansas get the money to run such along expensive campaign? Wallmarts name was brought up during the debates, will we hear more about that in the future? This great country has been bought and paid for by special interest groups, It sure would be interesting if all candidates would list there donaters after each television ad. Bill, could you and your wife tell us more about those service jobs? Remember the words of Ross Perot? He was right on the money!
ITS TIME TO TURN THE PAGE ON THE CLINTONS!

Obama must answer questions, what he stands for instead of pointing people who ask him questions to go to his website and read.

His negative campaign against Hillary is bad, he's losing supporters. The problem with Obama he wanted to be everything to everyone, whatever he says, no one must question him; he's a typical college professor. As far as Obama is concern he's the voice of authority, you all must bow down to him, he's above you.

I'm Edwards supporter. Someone has to stand up and tell Obama to put a lid on it and talk about issues that matters to the American people, not this childish bickerings and negative attacks he's busy doing with Hillary since February 2007, his first negative attack against Hillary printed in UK newspaper. It took forever for Hillary to respond to his negative attacks and when she did he cried like a baby, use it to send emails to his supporters asking for campaign donation. My candidate was guilty too in attacking Hillary but not as severe as Obama.

Once again the only thing Obama changes is his answers (or should I say lack of answers) to the same questions. So much for his cheery campaign of change. It's amazing how he fails to take ownership for anything he says or does! That's not change Barak! I guess Oprah can't bail you out of this one!

All Obama is doing is setting the record straight and defending himself from false allegations put forth by Hillary. Does Hillay and Bill really think anyone will vote for them now in the general election?

Some Americans are basically ignorant. A pity, because these ignorants actually go and vote. The truth is Americans don't notice or react to positive or optimism in politics( Obama should have won New Hampshire and Nevada if so). It is the dirty tactics that get their attention. Of course Obama should respond and set the record straight but in doing so, he risks losing votes not because he 'went negative'( do some people even know what that means?) but because of the ignorance of some voters. My advice is, 'follow the news and course of events , then make your own decision' ,don't be lazy and depend on opinion writers decide for you.
If you did you will see that Obama has never made personal attacks and insults and mischaracterizations as much as is being made against him. He is the new face and that's why it is a challenge to him to defend himself as well as let his message out.But then again, agree with the early poster. It was the same ignorant voters that got Bush elected TWICE!!

Obama has to dispute the lies otherwise people will believe them. We need Obama in the White House to change the course of history. We're on the wrong path, both in America and worldwide.
Too bad the Clintons are such LIARS. Their attacks will only devide the Democratic party in the end, so whoever is nominated will not get the votes of their opponents supporters. I now despise the Clintons and will vote republican if she's nominated. At least McCain is honest.

this is Clintons fault. What is a Candidate left to do but defend themself? She asked for this and (apparently) will go down for this.

I heard on MSNBC today that Obama's explaination for his "present" votes were he pushed the wrong button. Where is CNN's reporting on this? I don't want someone that can't push the correct button running the country.

Way to go, Obama.
Expose Lies while pointing out specifics of each candidate's ideas.
two birds with one stone.
well done.
keep it going!!!
never forget to SUBSTANTIATE your message.
DROP empty words like "HOPE" and "UNITY".
just spell out WHAT exactly you want to do, WHY, and HOW.
and point out WHAT your competition has done and wants to do, and HOW.

Guess it's time to puke Amy becasue thats all Obama has done. He dosen't know how hard it is to run fro President. Just some fancy speech's are not going to lock in a win for you. He needs 8 years as VP then he will be ready. Its a win win for ALL of us. We will have 16 years in control.

Clinton/Obama!!

Obama is responding, just as he should. The quote was selectively edited, which is a polite way of noting that the Clinton campaign is lying.

Take this example:

Pretend we are having a conversation about a particularly nasty video game.
I say "It is good to kick puppies. I can't believe that there is a video game out there in which it is good to kick puppies, that you actually score points for kicking puppies."
Then you run an ad that says that I said it was "good to kick puppies."

Same thing as what the Clintons are doing. Enough of that kind of politics.

This is all Rove type politics the Clintons are playing. The Clinton campaign has done their best to put race into this race. Obama is the candidate of all people and has never been about race. In fact, Obama is both White and Black. But the Clintons are trying to make him the Black candidate and divide the vote. The Clintons are willing to do ANYTHING to get back in the White House.

Obama is simply responding to their nastiness. It is sickening how the Clintons have thrown it out there, and then playing innocent. I see through it and Hillary has lost my vote.

It seems that the Clinton fans are either paid staff who are repeating their mantra over and over as frequently as possible in as many websites as possible or they are simply "dittoheads" and cannot come up with an original thought themselves. Why the sudden "crybaby" label and "frustrated" label being used on Obama? Isn't it strange that no one called Hillary a crybaby for actually crying because she was afraid that she was going to lose?

What about poor Edwards who is simply dying for some attention, any attention – and yet no one cares what he has to say? No one calls him a crybaby, because he isn't a threat in the race.

Funny how the Clintons labeled Obama as "ambitious" (for his Kindergarten goal), then he was lazy. They called him "too nice" to get anything done, (And Edwards wanted to convince everyone that he is the FIGHTER – who spent his entire life FIGHTING as a lawyer), now Obama is "not nice". Clintons called Obama naive, and then they said that he was the candidate for the establishment.

Clintons will keep throwing as many labels as they can at him and see which ones will stick.

The label that I believe will stick for Obama – is President!

CNN is back to censoring Clinton supporters. This is why the posts are 70% obama favored. I have posts going back from 8 hrs ago that STILL read 'waiting to be moderated' .

CNN ...............the ALL OBAMA NETWORK.

HILLARY SUPPORTERS,

I am reading Brokow's book. Yesterday I got to the section on Hillary. It is a very flattering portrayal of her. IT INCLUDES ABOUT TWO PARAGRAPHS OF QUOTES FROM HER PRAISING REAGAN. She thinks she can say anything in the press and sheep like you won't check the facts.

Go to the book store, read her comments for yourself and then ask why YOUR candidate is lying to you. My guess is she is a political opportunist who will say or do anything to get elected. But that may depend on what the definition of "is" is.

This is what happens in the Kitchen !!!

Pretty entertaining, so far. I 'm loving it !!!

Let nobody complain it is too hot !!!

Will the Democrats self destruct ? Will the Republicans benefit from this?

Will there be an opening for an Independent?

OR shall we find out who is the survivor and the fittest of the fittest?

Suspense, Suspense.

Keep on watching CNN.

Obama is a cry baby

Instead of making negative comments about the candidates why don't you go to factcheck.org and see who is telling the truth. The Clinton supporters may be surprised. An educated voter and Barack Obama supporter .

These Hillary supporters keep calling Obama a cry baby, but i can only think of one candidate who actually 'teared-up' on television this campaign season, and that was Hillary.

And as for experience, Obama has more years in elected office than Hillary 2x a state senator and 1x Us senator . And as for toughness, how is Hilary tough when she needs her aging husband and black celebrities to fight her battles for her, she cant even do it herself, such a weakling she is.

And as for experience, Harry Reid, nancy Pelosi, Senator Leahy, Al Gore, John Kerry, and a host of other Democrats have way more years experience than Hillary does, and they are also less divisive figures. And if this election is any indication, they are probably better people than she is.

So let's be honest, Hillary is neither the most experienced nor is she the best "example" of a good Democrat. She is simply more popular. And that is what her election is really based on. Her popularity. So all you hillary lovers can stop all your nonsense claims about her, and just admit that this is a popularity contest and nothing more. '

Her experience is laughable compared to so many othe senior democrats.

Come on Hillary folks now Obama is crying? Are you blind or just plane dumb? The Media knows who's doing the attacking plus they also know who they want to win the nomination. If Obama just sits there and let the Clinton hammer false truths Obama would lose and look weak. Then the Clinton dynasty will sit there and act as though they are some how the victims. Obama is doing what he's supposed to do!

Obama is delusional. He actually believes in his own “Fairytale” that he will get Hillary's votes when he is nominated. I am a lifelong, hard core democrat, and, if he thinks I, or the majority of Hillary supporters will be running to the voting booth to support him, he got a big surprise coming. Racism was initially injected in the media by Sharpton, Clyburn, and Brazile by questioning former President Clinton remarks about Obama’s view on Iraq being a fairytale. With all this division going on, maybe America is ready for an Afro-American President. We need to get back to issues plaguing the U.S. Candidates need tell us their ideas, tell us their plans, and tell us how they are going to implement them. Let the voters compare and contrast and decide whose experience will get us out of the mess.

Go Obama Hope you go all the way to the White House!
I find it very unfair that Bill Clinton is campaigning with Hilary trying to help her win the elections, they will say and do whatever it takes to win simple as that, they just want to be back in the White House! They are playing a real 'dirty' game of politics by trying to criticize Obama at every opportunity.
I am so impressed and inspired by Obama and feel he would be a brilliant president. I hope the American people vote for change vote for Obama.

Every vote for Hilary is bringing McCain one step closer to the white house. Look at the polls people, she can't beat McCain because she can not get the independent vote, Obama can. Do democrats want to win the primaries or the presidency? Cuz you know that Republicans will all band behind whomever they elect, as will the Democrats however all the new and young people Obama brought in will not support Hillary. I talk with my sons and the pals, ages 20-18 all of whom support Obama and all say they will vote McCain if Obama does not get the nomination. Think people the future of our country is talking and its saying they are sick of the Clinton's. If the Clinton's keep this up and alienate the future of our country that will give the Republicans 4-8 more years in office and that will be a fitting end to the Clinton's legacy for America. Scandal coming in and scandal going out.

He should just tell it like it is – "If you vote to put Hillary in the White House, Hillary will vote to send your son to Iran, and she will vote to send your job to Mexico".

I wish the democratic children would go to school and leave the business of the day to grown folks. You have a limited vocabulary and are so focused on how Obama acts instead of how you sound with your childish comments and statements. Which are so unbecoming when most of us are really serious about what is happening inside the democratic party. What a shame you just jump in defending Hillary which is fine but at least defend her record attacking Obama does not justify to me that she is the better candidate. You want to defend her fine get specific give me the straight facts not silly childish playground name calling comments. Truthfully I don't think you can!

If I hear one more person call Obama a cry baby, I'm going to puke. I suppose he is supposed to just let the Clinton machine roll all over him agian and again and again. The Clintons have made it IMPOSSIBLE for Obama to "be above the bickering". Here's the sad thing...a good deal of the American public have no idea what the real issues are, and will vote based on an ad or name recognition, so yes, it is necessary for Obama to set the record straight when he has been consistantly mischaracterized by the Clintons. For those of you who insist upon calling Obama a cry baby etc, first of all, please be a little more creative, and secondly, realize that the Clintons are the ones who have writtent he book on dirty politics...

Obama is whining and doing the same thing everybody else is. He is great at playing the victim. What a baby.

Hillary 08

CNN is irresponsible to keep even discretely spreading the "muslim" slander when they have investigated and proven them FALSE? If these comments are moderated, they should be moderated for truth. Carol's comment does nothing more then perpetuate this false claim, exactly what the Clintons want their "supporters to do. Pathetic!

As I said many times, dont generalize people. I am voting for Hillary not Bill!. So no matter how much you hate Bill, it doesnt matter, Hillary is running. Who's to say Bill was a president and Hillary was behind the whole thing telling Bill what to do or the other way around.. Stop with the stupid conspiracy theories you Pro-Obama-ers have towards the Clintons.

And for James and all Republicans out there, whoever gets the nomination of the 3 Democratic candidates, they will kick any of the Republican candidates easily, whoever it is. and FYI, Bush didnt get popular votes in 2004, but he won. And as far as I know, Bill is a former president when you claim he didn't get as much vote as Al Gore or Kerry. And apparently they both didnt get a chance to be a president unline Bill... so i think the record speak for itself...

Obama is like any other person running for office, I remember when he was behind, all the pundid kept saying he had to go negative- why is it ok for him but not the Clintons, seems like a double standard to me. All the media act if we have to treat him with kid gloves because he black, everything is always turns into race. Sorry I vote for the best person that has experience. He is just to thin skin. What is he going to do when the the other side start attacking him, They are really going to tear him apart and he will be crying like a baby. Go Hillary!

I find it sad that Obama has to spend his time refuting the Clinton lies rather than talking about the issues that concern America. The two parties in Washington have spent the past 15 years (hmmm...who was president then?) fighting against each other rather than working together to get things done. It's time for the people of this country to wake up and elect a president who can do away with the US vs THEM mentality of our government. And that candidate certainly isn't the one who repeatedly states "I am most qualified to fight the Republicans".

Barack Obama keeps looking better and better to me.

carol,,

That is because people keep asking him if he is a Muslim with this smear emails going around and stupid people believing them.

I saw a clip on Countdown on msnbc last night were obama did a radio spot in SC where he said his voters would not vote for Hillary BUT her voters would vote for him. So i have a question, WHO IS TRYING TO DIVIDE THE DEM.PARTY.?Iam a lifelong dem.He or no one else owms me.I can only speak for myself & i know i will not vote for him.I know he is the media darlin,but i can think for myself.
CNN i don't guess this get in either.

My theory: I believe the Clintons had this whole Presidential race planned before Pres. Clinton left office. In his disgraceful moment with that White House Aide, he lost it. He lost the power to think for himself as soon as he got caught. No woman in her right mind would stand by her man without some sort of retribution! Hillary Clinton got hers. She must have told him that since he wanted to act like a man of dishonor he should use his talents to work for her! So what did she do? She established herself a seat in Washington. She sent Bill out to the area that would do her the most good and get the votes she needs….Harlem. What better way to work up some votes than to put him to work for her and gather as much African American votes as possible! Next, she decides to run for the Presidency. Mystery is solved. I think not. Plan is more like it. Of course he does care about getting out there and campaigning for her. He had better. He owes her big time. I call it shrewd and cunning on her part. Is she really willing to work for the people like she says? I think not. It is all about power. Here is a woman scorned in front of all the world to see. She needs to get her dignity back and what better way than to make him work for her. One problem came up. Barack Obama. She did not count on an African American running against her. So what does she do?She pulls the race card on Obama that way the eyes are off of what she really did….put the former president of the US out on front street.

This could have been a fairly reasonable election cycle if dah dude dat speaks in paragraphs, I'm sorry, books, would have bothered to get some experience before he decided to further divide America along racial lines...

Hillary (and Bill's) recent antics are the exact reason we need real change in Washington. It's obvious she has no substance and vision to offer the American people, otherwise we'd be hearing about it. Go Obama!

Sounds like a truthful add to me.

The Media support the CLINTONS and ask the CLINTONS to critisize them. As if nobody will understand. All substantive things go the CLINTONS' way and the others the Obama's way.

Obamas has been crying since he lost every primary since Iowa, where 17yr olds (who can’t vote in general election) and Bill Richardson supporters put him over the top, otherwise he would have lost there too. The media has told the country that SC is a racist black only vote. So why would anyone other than the only 1/2 black candidate stay there. John Edwards is wasting his time in SC per the media. I don't think that ALL SC voters are as racist and naive as the media wants to portray them. It’s an attempt to help Obama because his camp has made fools of the media. It took voters and an ex-president to bring his terrible senate record, bush/Chaney backing, republican loving, lack of good judgment and inexperience out in the open when the media tried to hide it. Frankly we are tired of obama crying! If he crashes so quickly because he’s getting caught with corrupt campaigning funds with Rezko etc… what would he do when foreign leaders come at him? Run crying too, or call Oprah for help? …Just what we cannot afford to take a chance on. Giving pre-written church speeches does not make a President. And having his wife, Michelle Obama stumping throwing out racial comments is disgusting! No one sees her as first lady material; we don’t even see her as a lady! No one was crying when obama camp was attacking Hillary? And ALL the media treating her unfairly. She has proven that she is a strong leader after all the attacks she has endured and over come. Thank God the voters are smarter than the media and obama give them credit for. DONT WASTE VOTES ON OBAMAS, WE DONT NEED A RACIST IN THE WHITE HOUSE

Obama, the great uniter, say what? I am glad these types of ads come out because people can see that Obama is just like the Washingtion establishment he claims he wants to change. He is a politician, no better than Hillary. Now we are all seeing the truth, finally. Yet, the media will try to help Obama spin it into the notion that he has to do this because Hillary is such a bad woman.

If everyone is realistic, they can go back to the beginning of the campaign and see that Obama or his supporters started all of the name calling. Hillary has the right to defend herself; and now Obama is out in the open instead of being covert as he tried to be in the beginning.

I love this political season. One of the best in a long time.

Hillary Clinton is such a fraud. Thank God Obama is standing up to the Queen of Mean. She's just mad because the nomination wasn't handed to her. Obama has to fight both the Clintons and that is NOT FAIR! They want to be co-president...Is it never about Bill? Hillary supporters if you don't get that..you truly are blind.

Best Hillary quote to date..the Obama campaign has filed a complaint against the Clintons' campaign in the Nevada primary. Her advice to her campaign workers,

"It's not illegal unless they tell you so." – Hillary Rodham Clinton

Priceless...and a preview of things to come in ANOTHER Clinton White House.

Obamas has been crying since he lost every primary since Iowa, where 17yr olds ( who cant vote in general election) and Bill Richardson supporters put him over the top, otherwise he would have lost there too. The media has told the country that SC is a racist black only vote. So why would anyone other than the only 1/2 black candidate stay there. John Edwards is wasting his time in SC per the media. I don't think that ALL SC voters are as racist and nieve as the media wants to portray them. Its an attempt to help Obama because his camp has made fools of the media. It took voters and an ex-president to bring his terrible senste record, bush/chaney backing, republican lovin, lack of good judgement and inexperience out in the open when the media tried to hide it. Frankly we are tired of obama crying! If he crashes so quickly becuase hes getting caught with corrupt campagining funds with Rezko etc... what would he do when foriegn leaders come at him? run crying too, or call oprah for help? ...Just what we cannot afford to take a chance on. Giving pre-written church speechs does not make a President. and having his wife, Michelle Obama stumping throwing out racial comments is disgusting! No one sees her as first lady material, we dont even see her as a lady! No one was crying when obama camp was attacking Hillary? and ALL the media treating her unfairly. She has proven that she is a strong leader after all the attacks she has endured and over come. Thank God the voters are smarter than the media and obama give them credit for. DONT WASTE VOTES ON OBAMAS, WE DONT NEED A RACIST IN THE WHITE HOUSE

The Clintons need to stop causing trouble and if Obama don't respond the people will think it to be true. The Clintons plays unfair I wish Obama would not respond to the Clintons's attacks. and on the other hand if Obams doesn't respond the voter will think it is the truth. The Clintons want to be elected so bad untill they will stop at nothing.

For all those people that say Barack Hussein Obama is a saint . Well he is not.Obama people blocked Stephen Colbert from running S.C. for President. and you guys accuse HRC from disinfrachinsing ppl for Obama in nevada.
Wake Up. Obama is just another poltitican

O – h shut up

B – e man enough

A – d lib will take you nowhere

M – ucho talk but no action

A – y yay yay yay yay HUSSEIN OBAMA GUY !!!

Barack Obama ia an honorable man. When the Clintons attacked he stayed above it as long as possible. The attacks kept coming. I live in NH and right before the primary I received (along with every other Democrat and Independent in NH) absolutely false information on a flyer in the mail from the Hillary Clinton campaign about Barack Obama. It was signed by 3 female members of the NH House of Representatives. These 3 women are now saying that they never should have signed the flyer because the information was false. (If you don't believe me check it out for yourself at WMUR.com) Barack Obama has no choice but to defend himself. Is Hillary Clinton the kind of person you want to be running this country? Don't you think we've had enough of this "George W. Bush" behavior? I think so. Barack Obama has my vote.

These are the politics of change and hope?
This is the way Obama brings people together?
This man is a dispicable human being. It is Obama who will do and say anything to get elected.

Senator Obama has been calling Senator Clinton names from the beginning.

His negative campaigning has been a mainstay for him. Politics of HOPE, what a joke!

I wish she hadn't gotten down in the gutter with him, but I guess that is still what politics in America is all about.

As one pundit said recently "pot meet kettle".

Clinton '08

RUMBLE YOUNG MAN RUMBLE

OBAMA 08,12

Well said Canada eh! You have echoed what the world feels about the American electorate.

And just so you know...over here we all live in one-roomed thatched cottages with a herd of cattle at one end to keep us warm and a colony of leprechauns at the bottom of the garden. No electric, never heard of the internet... **LOL**

oh wait we forgot - is this like 20 questions

we have a question for Senator Obama. where's Oprah been and is she going to be joining you on the road again soon? go go Oprah. yay we love you. JJ&jr

Sigh: I gues the candidate of "change" isn't so much about change as about playing the usual political games.

But seriously people, this is politics. They are both going to do whatever they can to get elected. If you think Obama is some paragon of virtue that won't stoop to the same political maneuvers as others, then you are sadly mistaken. This man is from IL, known for it's nasty politics.

What you see on the campaign trail is what you will see in the White House if Hillbilly gets elected. Aren't we tired of a President who lies, cheats, misinforms, bullies, and is only for self?? This is the type of president HillBilly will be! Voting for HillBilly is the same as voting for a Republican. I am so sick of their lies!

South Carolinians I hope you see that HillBilly has deserted you because she thinks she is going to lose. If she really cared she would be there talking to you all instead of leaving it to her husband and child. I hope you can see she does not care about any of you and if she is President she will not care then either.

To the monitor,,, you posted the comment from canada,,,,You really should allow a response comment,,, simply removing " canada eh!'s comment after it was allowed to post for 24 hours and then not allowing my resonse wont due in this case,, every ones oppinion should be valued even outside oppinion,, BUT,, this was way more than just oppinion wasn't it ????

canada EH ! and next time you book a vacation,,, remember,, our beaches are already over- crowded with your neibors as well as all the hotel rooms at Disney World. Please book your next beach vacation at the Bering straight,, Your comments on our nation are about as valued as your rude behavior at our popular vacation sites

the back and forth attack and retaliation between Obama and Hillary has already sunk them for the general election. Who in there right mind would want 4 to 8 more years of what appears on the surface to be life timers of politics argueing over who's the greatest politician rather than who's the best candidate to lead our nation ???? mean while John Edwards is on the letterman show looking like he's having FUN with this campain. The republicans are shaking hands after events and stating publicly how they are proud of each other for running clean and respectful campains so far into this election. Obama and Clinton have nothing new to offer,,,, If you think its bad now,, wait till the general election comes into full swing. remember what is being said by these two now,, You Will be shocked at how different they sound ( and not in a good way ) in the general election

The devil himself can come and vote for Hillary, He may even bring all his armies. All that will not matter. Hillary will not be the next president of the United States.

Bill Clinton may yell at reporters, he may even bark. All that will not matter. Hillary will not be the next president of the United States.

Hillary and Bill Clinton may say all kind of lies and use all kind of dirty tactics to destroy their opponents. All that will not matter. Hillary will not be the next president of the United States.

Marketers and political strategists may repackage Hillary Clinton and sell her to us. All that will not matter. Hillary will not be the next president of the United States.

All Clinton supporters can vote for her as long as they want. All that will not matter. Hillary will not be the next president of the United States.

Why?

Americans in the vast majority are people with a good judgment. They know and see what the Clintons are.

Check out the comment Hillary made when advising her campaign workers on what actions to in Nevada..this is priceless, "It's not illegal unless they tell you it's illegal." It's the Clinton "proud ot be unethical" roadshow...again!

Booty Call Bill needs to sit down and take a breath....is it ALWAYS about him? Oh that's right it depends on what is, is... Hillary needs to stand on her own two feet. She is weak and pathetic. I'm so sick of the Clintons..they will say anything and do anything to get elected. Sadly they are supported by people who are too blind to see these two for what they are...dysfunctional, co-dependent and polarizing.

Our country deserves better..we need a leader with a vision and one who can bring this country together....we deserve better than the Clintons as co-presidents. That is exactly what we would be getting....how frightening is that.

CNN's Darling Candidate is crying foul!!!
Poor Edwards and Cinton

Geesh. Obama was seeming like the bigger person when he was staying above the fray. Now, he looks like just another politician.

I guess congratulations should go to the Clinton camp. At least they knocked Obama off that pedestal he built for himself and revealed that little halo of his to be made out of only tin foil.

Now, if only the media would do its job of reporting and lay off the interpretation and spin. They sound like a bunch of frustrated soap opera writers, for pete's sake.

While I understand his need to rebut Hillary's attacks, I think he is going to lose some voters by continuing to go negative. After all, he started his campaign on the promise of a new kind of politics. Although unwarranted, Hillary has eight years of goodwill to rely on, whereas Obama does not. She can afford to be negative, but the candidate of hope is starting to look just like another politician. Sad.

How is Obama a cry baby? Should he turn the other cheek after being hit in one? The Clintons are fighting the political fight of their lives; and what an effrontery it is 'little, inexperienced' Obama who is threatening to put a pin in the balloon. Ride on Obama, you are on the right track.

Part of the problem is that the American media have given Obama an easy ride when it comes to analysing his policies – they seem too focussed on the style rather than the substance – they let him away with murder in my opinion.

My own view is that Clinton and Obama have been playing to different audiences.

Clinton has always taken the long-term national-wide view whilst Obama has been much more short-termist concentrating on specific primaries and especially in South Carolina.

The old phrase winning the battle but losing the war comes to mind and I believe that is what is going to happen here.

Obama will win South Carolina only to lose on Super Duper Tuesday – especially in the big states like California, New York and New Jersey.

Moreover, Clinton's long-term view is not just to February 5 but beyond – she knows that the GOP machine will throw mud at her and by establishing now that she is a fighter that will put her in a good light for many voters.

Whilst many voters say they want a unifier the truth is that negative campaigning still works and it is those who come out fighting the hardest that often succeed. Kerry was attacked at the last election and did not respond – he took the "I won't go to their level attitude" – and look how much good it did him. If Clinton wins – and I believe she will – then I don't think that will happen this time.

It is all cofusion in both party races. The clintons are nuerotic about clinging to power. It is time to turf this un-dynamic duo and elect a sensible human being, such as John (the haircut) Edwards.

I used to think Hillary was okay, if not my favorite person. I thought it exciting we had a woman candidate but now I just can't stand her or Bill - and I used to like him. The two of them are attacking Obama in ways the Republicans attacked the Clintons back in the 1990s. It's just hateful. And nasty. She'll never win the cross-over votes but she'll bring Obama down with her so even he won't get the cross-over votes from Republicans and Independents needed to win. It's beyond the point of whether she'd be a good president or not because she's become what I hate the most: a politician who'll say and do anything, be as nasty and vindictive to get elected. Only I think it is all going to backfire and she'll implode. She might drag Obama down with her by giving the Republicans ammunition to use against him and then we'll wind up with, god forbid, Mitt Romney or John McCain for president. Maybe John Edwards can rise above all this but I don't think his numbers are high enough. I'll vote for Obama if he gets the nomination but I won't vote for anyone if Hillary gets it.

SOUTH CAROLINA POLITICS AS USUAL

SC is notorious for the style of politics played, so if Obama can't take the presure there, would he wither under the concerted full court press of the GOP political attack machine in the general?

His staff has also been seen frantically trying to do damage control in regards to the Rezko connection – Barack's long time friend who has finally been indicted for fraud, bilking the teachers pension fund, and campaign contributions seeking political pay backs. GOP blogs are already all a buzz, Democrats are too lazy to google.

TeamClinton is actually playing nice by only bringing up his Reagan remark, the Republicans would go straight for the jugular with Rezko. Most sheeple don't bother to check the facts, they just see the headlines. Remember the GOP operatives full front page plant in 2000 proclaiming GORE LIAR LIAR? The majority of people wouldn't even bat an eye if they were to see that pinned above Hillbillary because they've already seen all their laundry hung out to dry. However imagine "Obama accepts money from long time pal Tony Rezko in exchange for political favors" now press the caps lock.

CampObama is wasting money in SC where he already has a commanding lead with the African American vote. He needs to save it for Super Tuesday ads.

God lord...Obama's appeal sure wore thin early. Sorry, I need a Democrat that can stand up to the attacks from Republicans. Anytime Obama is attacked, he whines. Also, I love how he's about "The Politics of Hope"....yet does some of the most back handed attacks i've seen.

I swear people who say Obama is complaining or "crying" are retards. Hes RESPONDING cause obviously fear mongering and lying still work in "progressive' /democratic primaries. One observation about this point before i rant.

Democrats think they are so much smarter than republicans. They say o we are the party of the poor, minorities, blah blah blah. The truth is Bill Clinton was one of the proponents or economic liberalism in the 90's i.e. NAFTA. Sorry NAFTA didnt help the working poor cant spin that its economics. But it did sure did help Wall Street. John Edwards is just a joke 500 dollar haircut nuff said.

See what people dont understand about this primary is the Clintons are liars. You can say w/e you want about what they did for the country during her husbands presidency but the fact remains they are liars and do whatever they can to win. Hilary always says lets talk about the issuses lets talk about the issuses and then attacks obama personally.

Its about integrity, honesty, vision not ideology. Threatening people with the "politics of personal destruction" seems to be winning.

All you Hillary lovers out there who think your going to win in november are crazy. She is the only thing that will unite the republicans in the fall and alot of Obama supporters will not vote for her. Some of you hillary supporters need a history lesson.

I will not vote for her and if she wins ill be sure to get all my family and freinds to support MCCain in the fall. She doesnt have the integrity to lead this nation.

Lying = Bush
Lying = Hillary
Hillary = Bush

Obama 08 or McCain 08

That's a disgusting ad to use against a fellow Democrat!!!

Shame on you senator, just one more reason NOT to vote for you!!

Truly pathetic............

i haven't seen cnn mention obama's horrible performance on the today show. meredith vieira showed him the clip of him saying he never supported a single payer system and the clip of him saying he was a strong proponent of a single payer system. he pretended he didn't hear the one where he said he was a strong proponent, then started on some obfuscation. the oldest trick in the book, not to hear when confronted with his lie on national tv.

bet cnn will send this to moderation and make it disappear, like all my other posts. i think i may buy a share of their stock and show up at a stockholders meeting and protest their suppression of opinions they don't like.

If Obama wants to correct Hillary he could simply repeat his stance rather than starting with that's not true, that's not what I said, etc. I don't think he presents a good image when correcting comments.

Obama's not bad. But you can't vote "present" as president. You have to make a decision and live with it.

To Becky- You must have been sleeping for the last few months if you think Obama started this. HRC and her cheating husband, you had the nerve to lie to the whole world about having an affair are the ones that started this mess. Bill Clinton will do and say anything to get his wife into the office.

Clinton's have tons of trash in there back yard , and this thing is just getting warmed up folks. Just wait a few more days , and old slick willy will be on tv shaking that finger into the camera saying ...............I didn't have sex with Hillary's campaign staff !

LMAO

I had great respect for Hillary Clinton and her husband. It is a pity that they should resort to petty politics just to clinch the democratic presidential slot.We did not hear anything from the clintons until after their loss in iowa. Americans should observe that politics of the old is being drawn unto the stage after Bill Clinton launched an attack on the person of Obama. Truly, it is time to turn to a new page.Hillary Clinton and her husbands should focus on issues rather than on persons.If there is anybody that should be ashamed,it is the clintons.

This is why people should be voting for John Edwards. After all, he is representing the grown up wing of the Democratic Party. The lies and dishonesty on both sides of this fight–although more so the Clinton side–are disgusting!

To Becky and Teresa,u want Obama to sit down and allow the Clintons to continue with their lies?If you are honest enough you will say what is i the Clintons' ad is not true.If is about taking the heat that is the reason why Obama is responding.He sure can stay in the kitchen! The Clintons' will be matched boot for boot if they continue to lie.Period.

The followers of obama simply amaze me. They rank and rave like cult followers and they never demand any answers from him. Obama acts and behaves like he has a right to be president. I beg to differ. This comes from an AA male just watching the issues unfold. I watched the democratic debate in SC, and I must confess that obama is not ready to be president. Mrs Clinton answered all the questions honestly and fortrightly; while obama whines and complains. Mrs Clinton is extremely smart, tough and above all competent. Obama, on the otherhand, is not sure-footed, does not have a crasp of the issues and the media have done us extreme disservice for not calling him on it. Obama, in my opinion, is not ready for prime time in presidential politics. I must agree with President Clinton, " this whole thing is the biggest fairy tale I have ever seen," and we owe it to cnn and msnbc under whose auspices obama mania was created.

"O"!!!

Remember the more delagetes he pulls from clinton on Feb 5th the better. Everyone get out and vote!

She may win the popular vote but the closer we keep it the better.

I have No comment about all this: except that both Hillary and Obama suck, and so does McCain. they all offer the SAME "solutions" for everything – more of the same. More FDR/Fabian Socialism; that is the philosophy that a Government can and Should print new money, and hand it out like candy (for people to spend), and by SO DOING the Government can and Should "Create Properity." Have we not had enough of that for 70 years. Is there No One in American Politics today who has an ORIGINAL IDEA.

If Obama was neither praising nor denouncing the Republicans with his statement- why make the comment at all? Of course he brought it up to appeal to Independents and perhaps Republicans. Obama seems to be a very intelligent and articulate person. I respect that. But he needs to acknowledge that he is playing politics just as much as the rest of them. It's almost as if he purposefully made the comment with an escape clause (so it could be said that he never said they were GOOD ideas). Analogous to voting "Present" rather than committing to a firm "Yes" or "No." He needs to show more substance.

Obama is Diversion

Below are a few points for those of you who are considering voting for Obama as the Democratic candidate to pursue the Presidency. Please read and consider these points thoroughly before casting your vote:

1. Obama is a Diversion;

2. Over the last two years, the large powerful conservative new agencies owned by influential Republicans have purposely given Obama either neutral or positive news reporting in his run for presidency, amplifying his exposure and ratings amongst Democrats;

3. The neutral/positive news reporting of Obama has split Democrats in choosing between Clinton or Obama as the Canidate to run for President;
4. The conservative news agencies and powerful Republicans politicians are trying to manipulate the Democrats to choose Obama to run for President;

5. When Obama is chosen to run for President, the conservative news agencies WILL turn on Obama by inciting (through negative reporting) the fears of Americans, and the Presidency will go to a Republican candidate;

6. Please do not be manipulated and vote for Clinton (or urge them to unite). Democrats should unite together behind Clinton or else the Republicans will literally steal the presidency; or

Obama and Clinton should unite or Obama should step-down to ensure a Republican is not elected to the presidency.

This is in no way anti-Obama.(Bless you Obama for running; however unfortunate the timing, considering the above).

The point of the above is to make us Democrats aware of a very possible scenario. We dealt with very similar manipulation the last eight years (remember Karl Rove?) and need to wake up. There is much at stake to let the powerful Republican politicians manipulate our vote.

This is no means an attack on Republican citizens or Obama supporters, and much respect to you. Please consider the above points.

SPREAD THE WORD. EMAIL TEXT MESSAGE AND BLOG TO OTHER DEMOCRATS.

Government has done a number of great things for our country and some outstanding actions for minorities. Example THE REPUBLICANS APPOINTED THE FIRST AFRICAN AMERICAN (Powell) to a cabinet position and the first AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMEN TO SAME POST(RICE) and don't forget the first Hispanic to federal persecutor that's just to name a few. by the way am a DEMOCRAT. That believes that my country is The UNITED states of America and united is important.
(UNITED WE STAND) ............OBAMA 08...... MAY GOD BLESS YOU.

Hillary CLEARLY started the first attack ad with this radio spot. This attack has CLEARLY been rejected and everyone knows it is something the Clintons have tried to twist. Obama has every right to respond to it and set the record straight. How dare anyone say he is whining when all he is doing is correcting the negative lies the Clintons are spreading.

To the man from Canada, you have probably the best comment I have seen on any board since this primary began. As a nation of people who did vote for George Bush "twice" we too have lost some of our credebility as individuals with the ability to truly decipher who is best to lead us.

Regardless of who you support, do you not think it would be important to evaluate your own standards of how you judge someone as qualified? Should we not ask ourselves what are the standards that we are using to judge our leadership and their ability to deal with the current state of our country?

One of the core principals of American government is "For the People, By the People" and therefore it is neither Bush, nor Hillary, nor Obama who bears the responsbility of shaping our current or future standing in the world. It is us. And if we once again want our country to rise from this state of despair then we have to look beyond our inherent human flaws of ego and bias (not in racial but thinking terms) that blinds us from sound judgement and see that only a leader that manifests the ideals and prinicipals of this country shold be the one destined to lead.

But, once again, that is in the hands of we, the people.

During the last 20 years we've only seen 2 last names in the Oval Office....it's time for a fresh new face with fresh new ideas to stimulate our economy and to inspire citizens to bring moral back to the culture of our communities. Republican or Democrat.

Obama isn't going to win if he continues to lock horns with Hillary, which is driving his approval rating down when he should be trying to win over the undecided. Hillary has an edge because of her goal for universal health care and because the majority of voting age white Americas (especially in the "red states") aren't ready for a minority president. We don't need surveys to prove this. Just look at the biased media (like CNN). For some reason only girls with blond hair become murdered or go missing (if there is a report on a minority missing it's RARELY if at all a main story followed up on)...There are healthy numbers of whites who would vote for Obama in major cities in the north, but what about the rest of America? I wish that this was just negative thinking, but let's face the truth.

It's okay to say it. Hillary and her husband are LiARS! I'm a Democrat and I want to support the Democrat nominee. I've been following this race, like everyone, for a year now, but it was not until this week that I feel HIllary truly revealed herself. Her claims about Obama's record and distortions of his statements are a travesty. The 'fun part' has begun. She and Bill will stop at nothing to get back into the White House. Hillary is a LIAR and she has publicly proven it this week. We need a candidate who can unite the country and not embellish the truth. Obama 2008! Anyone but Hillary!

Turn the table on the Senator Clinton and give the people of Florida , mainly the military the issues and anwers they need to hear before from Senator Obama before the primary. It's time for change.

Obama is not going to just bow down to the Clintons. There time is up. Billary is wack.

Amazing. If these comments are reflective of the American people, I have no hope for America in choosing a capable candidate.

He said, she said. It's pointless! Vote on the ISSUES, people! I'm not talking about gay marriage or abortion, though those seem to be favorite topics for some. I'm talking about issues that affect each and every one of us: economic policy, foreign policy, civil rights, taxes, etc.

Let's face it: In the past few decades we have:
1) Faced unprecedented gov't interference with our civil rights
2) Been crippled in the world's eye with a interventionist foreign policy
3) Squandered our nation's wealth through horribly near-sighted economic policy and exorbitant spending
4) All due to an government which is gaining more and more power by the day

What will you do, America?

Obama crys foul and plays the victim. The Muslim story is a prime example of him milking the racial/religous card. He likes that story being out there so he can blame Hillary.

Why doesn't the media at least look at the unabashedly black church he attends, and the people they honor like Louis Farakan?

If Hillary or Huckabee attended a unabashedly white churh that honored David Duke, don't you think the media would have a field day?

I get the feeling we are being set up, by the corporate media, for a Republican general election win.

Vet them both honestly CNN.

What of Obama's lie that he will fire anyone who engaged in negative campaigning then when his South Carolina campaign issued the four page memo about the supposed racial slurs by the Clintons Obama said he was "disappointed" but the person doing it was not fired.

The Clintons can lie and distort Obama's message but if he responds he's whining? How can you NOT respond after someone lies about what you say or stand for. I sure wouldn't want either of the Clinton's representing me and what I stand for in an election! Hillary supporters have selective hearing. I hear what Obama's health care plans are, what he really said about Reagan, what "present" votes mean, and that he was against the Iraq war but also wasn't going to let our troops fight on our behalf without the proper protection! I also hear what Hillary has to say, mostly she regrets her votes, she will mandate health care (hello fines), and has to steal other peoples ideas to look better! Do you really want more liars in the White House? Lets move America in a positive direction people!!

OBAMA '08!!!!

GO OBAMA....

TAKE DOWN THAT CLINTON ATTACK MACHINE...DONT EVER BE AFRAID OF THE 2 HEADED SNAKE CALLED BILLARY AND THEIR DIRTY TACTICS...THEY REALLY WILL SAY ANYTHING AND DO ANYTHING TO WIN THE PRESIDENTIAL PRIZE...

HIT EM BACK HARDER BARACK....

You guys dont seem to get that Senator Obama was running on a hype of hope speech.

He has dragged himself down into a mud slinging war. He has been caught outright lying about the single user pay system. He has been put into bed with Rezko.

Now, the clintons have slung the mud, but Obamas ZEAL to show how tough he was by confronting them has a huge cost.

Hes exposing that he is NO BETTER than the Clintons and he had to most to lose because of it.

Its really the CNN south carolina debate. Most voters noticed he was the first to ATTACK.

His campaign wanted to show he could stand up to them, but it came across as a PETTY squabbling by both Clinton and Obama.

He lost his I AM ABOVE IT ALL shtick. Now, he is viewed as a politician. Not a GRAND UNITER.

Both camps have drawn sides. Many experts saw it coming. Polarizing Obama was the way to get Clinton back to front runner status.

As for south carolina??

As I said before. Obama has to win the WHITE VOTE or take it close even. Otherwize the country sees that he has been judged along racial lines.

By the end of this back and forth, at least Hillary cant go back to the crying routine she orchestrated in NH anymore. The woman is so cold and calculating.

Imagine, the self-professed feminist icon who wants to be the first woman in the WH has to do it on the back of her husband. Somehow, it doesnt remind one of how Margaret Thatcher became prime minister in the UK.

You strip Hillary of Clinton and she's less than mediocre!

Sam

Hillary is riding on, and depending on, the coatails of Bill to win the presidency. This makes her a follower, not a leader. Hillary started the attacks on Obama who was forced to respond. Anyone who thinks he should be a wussie about it is in la-la land.

Obama "08"

real sick of the ignorance/hypocrisy. In the mind of Billary's flock:

A) Obama responds to attacks = "he's a cry baby" and "change your diaper"
or
B) Obama ignores attacks = "he's weak and wouldn't defend himself/America"

Seriously, think about it. Why don't you just admit you'll never like anything he does and Billary is your God. You would have to have blind faith in her to be so incredibly ignorant of the facts.. 90% of her attacks are completely fictitious.

Recent example:
-Obama praises the way Reagan got things done and accomplished the goals he set. (leadership style, no praise for the policy or the results)
-Billary's says Obama is in favor of Reagan's economics opinions and is therefore a republican

Why don't you try READING the transcript or actually LISTENING to what he said IN ITS ENTIRETY instead of listening to a 5-10 second sound clip put out by his competition. You always have to CONSIDER THE SOURCE of your "facts".

Hey everybody! Wow, I'm really tired of reading the he said/she said and the blah blah/wah wah on these sites. I wish someone would say something or ask something real. Like, what are you planning to do about healthcare in America? Or, what policies do you have in mind for the enviroment? Or, what are you going to do about _fill in the blank___? Instead, it's all about he's a wimp, or she's a witch, etc., etc. Isn't that the kind of thinking that got us in trouble in the first place? All about the superficial, not about the issues. We, and only we, as the American people have the power to change this country. Don't sit back and let it happen to you, MAKE IT HAPPEN FOR YOU!!!! Stop and think about what's important to you and ACT! It doesn't matter who is in office, WE have the power. We have the power to make politicians act in our best interests...as soon as you stop believing in that...well, we're doomed regardless who's president.

To: Canada eh!

I love your comments. Please don't judge Americans from some who write negative comments on various blogs. Most of us are very sane. We refraim from the name calling. We know we are extremely lucky we have three very intelligent Democratic candidates. Most of us do our research. We find the entire comment and not just a sound byte to find out what exactly was said. We go on the federal congress site to see how many votes are missed, how the candidate voted on the particular legislation, and, of course, we study the issues of each candidate. Then we make a decision.

We know that many of the negative comments on blogs come from the Republicans masquerading as Democrats. Actually, in 2000 Al Gore won the popular vote, but George Bush won the electoral vote. I don't know why we still have electoral votes. The fact he won in 2004 is beyond me. I am a Hillary supporter and feel she will be a strong leader.

This is a very intense campaign. There is a lot at stake. However, I am glad that people are involved than being apathetic. I just wish some would be more civil.

Hillary started this with Oprahs, I have a dream speech, Hillary started this with Michelles, ain't no blacks in Iowa. Amazing, it's not what you say, but who you are?

Hillary started these negative personal attacks. Back on July 25, 2007 at a debate, Hillary called Obama "naive" because he responded to a question of foreign policy saying he would meet with our enemies as well as our allies. Obama held back.

The distortions and lies of Obama's record took front-and-center of the Clinton campaign after Hillary came in third in Iowa. Bill Clinton became frustrated after Iowa and went on the attack of Obama.

In the SC debate, Hillary was claiming Obama praised the Republicans and thought they had good ideas based on an interview with the largest Nevada newspaper who endorsed Obama. Obama had never said he liked the ideas or that he thought they were good ideas.

Both Hillary and Bill continue to use falsify Obama's words as though they are preaching facts. Every major political news media outlet has listed Hillary and Bill's claim about Obama supporting Republican ideas as false.

Please stay above the dirty politics of Bill and Hillary Clinton, Mr. Obama. As long as your message of hope and unity are seen as the entree on your political menu with some seasoning of important issues like, the economy, national security, and Iraq, you will do just fine.

I am a black women and my vote hasbeen for Edwards from the start due knowing what he stands for and his mission. It is a great moment to have a women and a black man run for president. But Hilary lost my vote when she fail to answer yes or not when question about her vote for the war, The question was not about information given to her, it was about her vote. To me she was like Bush not taking responsiblity for her actions,not wanting to be wrong my thought is if she place this responsiblity on information given to her. Obama at the time did not express his plans and now that he is making his issues known I see the Clinton caring so deeply about winning and nothing else matter. Women have always been smart, but her smart us being used in a negative way, I see right through her. Experience is ok, but with out a vision, with out a dream where is american going. 35 years of experience, we want a change for the better and that change will come with from some one that does not beat up on another just to win. What she should be doing is saying things to make people think, making sure people are not voting for her as a way for President Clinton to lead this country. A vote for Hilary is a vote for Bill. Her husband should support her, just as the other wives support Obama and Edward, however Bill should know he is on stage and being on stage he would always carry himself as a president and not like my husband and other women husbands that has not been president. No one should be tell him to chill. Race does play a part in all of this, how could it not but there will be peoples that look at the issues and then vote on the issues and not the person. I have looked at the issues and the issues that connect with me. I have given some thought to the gov. of AR due to how he carry himself and some of his issues. Hilary should take a deep breathe, we love her and Bill and the things he has done as president. But america is ready for a change, the fight between the two parties need to end, and not the fight with in the party need to come to an end and get down to the issues.

I am hoping very hard that Obama will speak loud and clear about all the issues that the Americans are worried about, can't understand why it wasn't done before.
Obama should come out and say what he has to say to help himself against these attacks , following this he has to come out and give the people the answers they need , hope he will do so very shortly, once and for all.

Hope he wins against the two Clintons, too much is too much , they where in the white house for 8 years that's enough.

Canada

It's "time to turn the page?"

If Obama thinks he's getting elected president, then it's time to skip a chapter.

Yes, things are getting exciting, the Obamanites are milling around and bleating, " Bar-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-ack."

But Obama himself , the great leader and unifier is composed and in complete control of his . . . . his cult.

"HIllary B-a-a-a-a-a-a-ad," they bleat. And the press, the media, the fourth estate, the protector of the mighty . . . they look on, and they approve.

But who cares what the press wants?

VOTE NO TO OBAMA ! !

Obama is only defending himself. Clintons and supporters go home!

Vox populi, vox Dei.-
A change is yet to come.
It will not come without Obama.

I don't get why, after 25 out of 37 years of Republicans balancing the budget twice, wars, pork, waste incompetance impeachment and corruption would Obama try to reach out to Republicans. Independants yes, but the fact some Republicans are Obama backers is very troubling. How are Democrats supposed to achieve Universal Healthcare and an end to Iraq if you bring in the same people who would never let you do it. Me thinks Obama is George W. Bush-lite. The future of the USA is too important to let any Republican near the levers of power for at least 8 years.

How sad this campaign has sunk to this level this early in the race. We must consider the source; when one lies and manipulates people they sin. It is that simple. Then it is easy to sin again, and again, and again. That is why this attitude is accelerating with the Clintons, both of them are power hungry; he is charasmatic, that is how he got elected twice to the high office of President.

Hillary Clinton has done nothing in the past to gain experience to act as President of the United States. If she is elected, this country is in the worst trouble ever, even worse then the attack on Pearl Harbor Dec. 1, 1941.

Our country is already in trouble allowing all these immigrants into this country without a plan to support them. Now, in the upcoming election, our state of California wants to take gambling money previously given to Native Americans and give it to the Mexicans who are here illegally, because if they don't this state will be bankrupt!

What a mess! And you people think that Hillary Clinton is experienced enough to straighten this out-she, the most un-experienced candidate in the whole race, will do her best to hire the right people to help; but she will have no loyal subjects , because she does not know what loyalty is all about. She is mean, vindictive, and for sure....she is no lady!

We have but one chance with this whole situation-get on your knees and pray!

WOULD SOME ONE PLEASE EXPLAIN WHERE OBAMA HAS PRAISED OR COMPARED HIMSELF TO REAGAN ??? OR FOR THAT MATTER, ANY REPUBLICAN ???

Obama's Reagan Remarks to Reno Gazette-Journal,
Jan. 14, 2008

Obama: I don’t want to present myself as some sort of singular figure. I think part of what’s different are the times. I do think that, for example, the 1980 election was different. I mean, I think Ronald Reagan changed the trajectory of America in a way that, you know, Richard Nixon did not, and in a way that Bill Clinton did not. He put us on a fundamentally different path, because the country was ready for it. I think they felt like, you know, with all the excesses of the '60s and the '70s, you know government had grown and grown, but there wasn’t much sense of accountability in terms of how it was operating, and I think people just tapped into – he tapped into what people were already feeling, which is we want clarity, we want optimism, we want a return to that sense of dynamism, and, and, you know, entrepreneurship that had been missing.

I think Kennedy, 20 years earlier, moved the country in a fundamentally different direction. So I think a lot of it just has to do with the times. I think we’re in one of those times right now, where people feels like things as they are going right now aren’t working, that we’re bogged down in the same arguments that we’ve been having, and they’re not useful. And the Republican approach, I think, has played itself out. I think it’s fair to say that the Republicans were the party of ideas for a pretty long chunk of time there over the last 10, 15 years, in the sense that they were challenging conventional wisdom.

Now, you’ve heard it all before. You look at the economic policies when they’re being debated among the presidential candidates, it’s all tax cuts. Well, we know, we’ve done that; we’ve tried it. That’s not really going to solve our energy problems, for example.

Gee Whiz Seantor Obama, quit whining and just fight like a man. You're beginning to sound like a 2-year old. President Clinton is just doing exactly what your wife is doing -campaigning for his spouse with all of what they got. It's not Hillary's fault that he gets more publicity and that he was the ex-president.
Don't you know that Bill Clinton is but a puppy compared to what the Republicans will do to you should you get the nomination? They will bury you alive with the worst attack that you'll ever experience. If you can't handle this mild so-called attacks now, you will for sure crumple under the republican's attacks.

Mr. Obama, did you Change your message of Change and Hope to Whining and Attacking the Clintons? Seems like your campaign is now focusing on this negative campaign of attack, divide and continue with the race issue. Or is it because you don't really have a good grasp of the issues that confronts the American people and therefore be childish about it? "If you cannot take the heat, get out of the kitchen." You can fool us sometime but you cannot fool us all the time that you will deliver the change you are constantly talking about. Your glow is slowly dimming.

I have been on the threads supporting Obama in most of this. However, I feel guilty. This is not what an election should be about. My brother has severe autism and I want to know what the candidates will do to help those with disabilities. Everyone has their own personal issues they would like to hear about. I am sorry for my bit in feeding the fire. I, for one, am done arguing. Let's get back to the issues! My apologies. I am tired.

Don't start something you can't finish Obama. You along with your media allies started all of this after Iowa.

I guess you will also moderate this to.
What a piece of brilliant insightful journalism by you guys.
Who really cares about this back and forth.
Based upon the number of posts on this subject not many!

All this is immaterial. Wait till the Big Media catches up on the impending Rezko trial – it's all over for Obama and his rancorous fanclub. It was fun while it lasted...

Hillary 08!!!

Obama would say and do anything to get elected. That is the real truth.
He is going to win south carolina. However rest of the states are not anything like south carolina. He would be changing his diaper more frequently after that.

Hillary Clinton salivates about fighting with the Republicans. She brags about waiting for them to attack her. That's an opinion based in fact.

With that said, how can anyone recognize the ineffectiveness of our government due to insane partisan bickering and believe that Hillary Clinton will be able to get anything done as POTUS with her mentality of demonizing Republicans? How in the world will she be able to carry Democrats in Congressional races across the country in to office with her brand of polarizing politics?

Wake up! Democrats can not win the WH with just Democrats and Hillary's rhetoric proves that we will see a continuation of the same type of "politics as usual" from not only the last 8 years, but the wars and hyper-distrust from the 90's if she is elected. Where's the attraction in that for Independents and Republicans disillusioned with their own party?

Obama offers the best hope to lead a unification of our country around healing our many divisions, achieving the big goals needed to move our nation forward domestically and internationally, and he has the proven legislative record and campaign success to show that he can draw Independents and Republicans to join in that goal.

Cynicism is not the answer, nor is hardened loyalty that diminishes if not outright ignores reality. We need that "working coalition" or else we'll sink deeper in to the depressive malaise that has effectively paralyzed our once great American spirit.

OH AND OPERAH OR HOWEVER U SPELL HER STOOPID NAME IS ONLY HELPING HIM CAUSE HE IS BLACK LETS SEE WHAT SHE WOULD HAVE DONE IF IT WAS ALL WHITES.....................NOTHING SHES MAKES ME SICK PEACE OUT GOD BLESS OH PEOPLE LETS GET OFF RACE AND GENDER AND GO FOR SOMEONE WITH BRAINS LIKE CLINTON

Calling Obama cry-baby??
Who was the one crying in front of women voters like a cry-baby. It was Hillary Clinton not Obama. Is she going to cry in the oval office when things don't go the way she planned? She is a calculating cold person who will do anything to get elected, including fake crying.

Obama's goons are out.

He is beating them at the same game

Obama 08

Obama the cry baby is back

Obama the pit bull is out on the prowl

Thank God that Obama has made it clear he is not a racist – oh yeah – except that part where his stump speech is now spent declaring he is "not a Muslim".

Dear Democrats,

Please nominate Hillary. Bill never got as many votes as Al Gore or John Kerry. Hillary will not do as well as he did. If you nominate Hillary, we will enjoy four more years without without a Democrat in the White House.

Republican in Georgia

when did we stop doing our own research?are we so blinded by race or feminism
that we have lost all our values,before this all started i wish that hillary would run for president and was so happy when she did,when obama entered the race i did not give him a serious though ,but now i am see an entirely different picture of my idols.(bill&hillary)i defended them on all issues when the republicans went after them,even during the impeachment i beleived in them,now they have clearly come unglued and it is not a good thing for them.hillary was certainly going to get my vote ,not anymore ,i will take credibility over experience any day what type of policy can you put forth when you lie and fabricate?what about foriegn policy ?can a foreign goverment trust a hillary presidency,start dealing with issues a stop taking us for stupid goons.we can research and we know the truth bill go find you a chair and stop crying on national tv,you look so pathetic.quit bill.

Oh, is he going to whine when Osama calls him out?

I also thought that Obama was over the tit for tat...he's falling right in Clinton's trap. She says something stupid and he responds and sounds stupid himself. This is masterful tactics by the Clintons, they are making such light of Obama's post-partisanship. He's put himself in a quagmire now cause if he doesn't respond, it'll look like they are walking all over him, and when he does, he is showing he is no better than she is.

Clinton 08!

I'm just worried that this whole attack and retaliation cycle is going to hurt Obama's candidacy. However, one can't afford in today's politics to let attacks of the sort the Clintons are launching go unanswered. He must respond, but hopefully with more civility than his rivals.

WAL – racist!

Becky January 23, 2008 9:59 pm ET

Obama started this whole thing by putting a lying radio ad in spanish here in Nevada…he is such a jerk….and those who follow him…a bunch of ignorant sheep!!!
-----------------------------------–

Beeeeecky, beeeeeecky, beeeeecky – that's how sheep call your name.

The only ignorant people are those that don't look into the facts, and your claim is 100% false.

The "Clinton Empire" is the same as "Bush Administration"!!!!!

Hillary did not deliver the Health Insurance Plan during her husband's two year presidential term!!!! Former president is not being a diplomat and he is seriously taking advantage of the media to undermine the change needed to get rid of the Corporate Giants sending jobs out of the United States of America!!!!

Corporate Lawyer working for a retail giant that has no respect for their employees does not have any interest for the citizens of the United States of America!!!!!!

Americans please wake up , we need a change and new blood in the White House. If Hillary is the Democrated Nominee we are in for big trouble. The Clintons have so much negative baggage for the Republicans to have a field day in November. I have never voted republican however if she is the canidate in Nov. I will be voting Republican.

I doubt this would be going out at all if Hillary hadn't started this. Wake up Billarys! I am glad he is defending himself, but if he said nothing you would say he is weak or worse yet that her lies are right. See the light. The Clintons have so disappointed me that if she gets this I will be voting for Bloomberg or McCain. Sad, when people used to ask me who my favortie president was I used to say Clinton. Now I have seen their true colors though. As of 2008, my response will be:

OBAMA!!

Maybe Obama should stick to watching Cartoons. B A B Y!!

Obama 08!

Thanks Obama for calling the witch out.

THE WAY I SEE IT, OBAMA HAS NO CHOICE THAN TO RESPOND. HE SHOWS HE HAS A FIGHTING SPIRIT AND CAN FIGHT FOR WHAT IS TRUE AND JUST FOR AMERICA. IF THE CLINTONS KEEP DISTORTING FACTS LIKE THESE, HOW DO THEY EXPECT THE REST OF THE WORLD WATCHING TO BELIEVE WHAT THEY SAY IF ELECTED. HILL AND BILL, YOU LOST ME.

To Canada eh!

We won't come up there if you don't come down here every time you need medical care you can't get up there. Fair enough.

Do you want to know what I think? I think theyboth need to stop fighting because that is setting a bad example to child and others. Not to mention Jesus. I know whats going to happen if we all don't stop fighting with each other. He created this Earth for a reason. One so that we could live FOREVER. For an ETRINTY. So they shouldn't be fighting. Let them know they need to stop. If they don't they can kill the world and the people can also kill the world with their violence. When the world ends the world will be covered in flames and be destroyed be a meteorite that will miss earth once more than hit us. When you see a lot of violence, agrueing and killing the world will end.

So Save the World. Don't kill it because you'll kill your self as well. Help save the world our world.

I cannot believe the Clinton's are BOTH ganging up on him. If you vote for Hillary you are really voting for BILL!. She needs to have her own voice and not his. We are not voting for Mr and Mrs President of the United States are we?

Wake up everyone and smell the coffee. When attacked you fight back unless if you are a wimp or cry baby as one contibutor said. Who has a lot of dirty laundry to hide – Billary. But Obama in his statesmanship refuses to bow down to such dirty tricks – anything to get into the white house. I would sooner vote for a republican than for Billiary. I am on an all out war to make sure she does not win.

It takes a real slimebag of a politician to get someone like Obama to sink to their level.

Hillary and Bill have dragged Obama into to the gutter and they will beat him with experience. Its sickening.

And I gotta love this doubletalk that Hillbots have that call him a wimp when he doesnt fight back, and a whiner when he does. typical.

What a shrew Hillary is. I get sick when I see Bill and remember what he did to the Presidence. What a waste of tiome and money when he was in office and lied under oath. I wish the two of them would just do the country a favor and retire.

Thanks for the "wake up call", Canada,eh! You are so on point!

Those of you attacking Obama – would you suggest he just didn't respond to her ad? How can he just concede on a point that is as important as this? It's not whining, it's having a backbone! If he can't defend himself against attacks from the Clintons, how can he defend the country?

Becky,

Do some research before insulting an entire group of people. He did not put that add out. A supporting group did. Hillary's supporters have done worse. I, for one, take offense for your ignorant sheep comment. Great way to keep the party together. Great attitude. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Clinton and Obama will wedge the democrats apart. Vote for Edwards he is clearly the best candidate.

Clinton began this last summer, calling Obama naive and irresponsible. That is when she lost me. He waited a long time to call her on her smears, but now he is making it plain that she is distorting everything he says. She has not learned her lesson, and people are really getting mad at her and Bill. She is living up to all the charges that the Republicans have leveled against her and Bill as dishonest and ruthless. I am so disappointed in them.

Not being an American, it's like being a fly on the wall watching this campaign unfold. I'm simple amazed at the comments that have been posted on numerous site, not only this one that reflect the sheer ignorance and lack of judgement by 'some' Americans. Although, I did say some, you are the same people that voted 'twice' for George Bush. Now, I can totally understand the error the first time around, but to vote for him the second time. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. (I think George tried saying that once and got tongue tied) Really... it's shame on you America. That is what this Canadian and many, many, many others around the world are saying about you and your decision to re-elect Bush. You now have an opportunity to correct the situation and you are bickering among yourselves about Obama or Clinton. American people, either one of these candidates will be a vast improvement over the current Bush or any other Republican. Therefore, re-focus your attention to the issues, demand your news media to focus on the issues and help either one of these capable people get prepared for the general election. American people wake up, it seems awful dark down there!
PS. Canada is really cold and we live in igloos, so you guys shouldn't come up here ever.

Obama you got yourself to ask a questions:

How do I feel?

Hillary all the way!!!! Down with the media.

This country was founded on christianity. Obama is not a christian, and where is he getting his money from, to go on this campaign trail?

Look, she misrepresented what he said and he gave it back to her. What do you expect him to do?

Fortunately, there are also thousands of African-American voters who are knowledgeable and well informed on the issues facing our country today and they will not vote simply on the basis of race Hopefully they can weigh Obama's remarks about Reagan and Bill Clinton..who did much for the African american community and more so in So. Carolina. which today badly needs a Democratic
President bit it Hillary or Obama. Religion and race really ought not to be issues
in the Presidential Campaign trail. There is too much at stake for our country.
So then get on with the issues and stop the petty bickering.
GOD Bless America. Pray for our country.

Jimmy

It is starange how when he does it, the media seems to urge him on but woe unto HRC. I am really disgusted at CNN. I think foxnews has done far better on the elections

tell obama to put it in his pipe and inhale hillary 08

YOU THINK OBAMA OR HILDABEAST CAN RUN YOUR COUNTRY-GO SEE A SHRINK PEOPLE!!
MAYBE THEY CAN RUN IT IN THE GROUND.

I'm more or less an Obama supporter, but I have to admit, this is kind of pathetic.

What is most disturbing are the hateful things Americans are saying about Obama, like some of the weak-minded commentors earlier. They know nothing about Obama except that which their lazy eyes and ears see and hear in the media. They oppose the war in Iraq and the lies of George Bush, but are supporting a candidate who voted to authorize the war and is blatantly lying about Obama's words and actions to get herself elected. This is why change is hard. It's not because of the establishment. It's because of the electorate.

My momma didn't raise no fool!

Obama for President in 2008!

Boy, I didn't know that Obama camp is so easy.
They are playing right into the Clinton trap.

Why is Obama a crybaby for fighting FALSE allegations against him? The Clintons are spinmasters and you are all buying the bait. Check out the Newsweek fact check on the debate... Hillary spun the truth through and through.

She'll say anything and change nothing – exactly. Don't fall for the same old tricks America – fight the politics of "anything goes" and see through these lies and pretty faces. America needs you to open your eyes and vote for a real change, not somebody who has ALREADY BEEN IN THE FREAKING WHITE HOUSE.

You all are fools.....Hillary is not going to change an things... don't you know the republican what her to get the nomination so they can tear her up... Why nominate the past ... lets move forward and take a change on new ideas.

The Clinton's are horrible corrupt people!!

A lifetime of public service has made them multimillionaire's! WHAT????

They made it by currying political favors. Just like Hillary's new plan to put the whole country into a mandatory HMO. She has received campaign contributions from those same people who will profit from it. She is 100%corrupt.

Obama said in the first debate, he would use Bill and look forward to Hillarys advice. My,my have things changed. Isn't that what he wants, change? Needless to say he got his wish. Politics makes strange bedfellows.

Right, Obama supporters, remember: Setting the record straight when someone lies about you is "whining" and you should stop being a "crybaby".

Didn't you learn anything from how Hillary reacted when Obama and Edwards were both leveling criticism at her? *She* certainly never played the "victim card" by having the gall to tell the truth.

When is the media going to have the nerve to tell the truth about Hillary's illegal 2002 Senate campaign fund raising issue with Peter Paul? Go to You Tube and look up "The Video that Hillary Doesn't Want You to See". The interviews with Fox, CNN, and MSNBC, etc. about the Peter Paul fund relationship with the Clintons is incredible! The Clintons really know how to go for the jugular. Don't take my word for it...watch the video and draw your own conclusions. Anyone with half an ounce of common sense knows that if Obama was ever caught up in this kind of scandal his career would be over. The Clintons are way too powerful, ruthless, and are out to destroy anyone who stands in their way just like they did to Peter Paul who was their "friend". Of course the Obama haters would call it "sour grapes" if his camp confronted Hillary about something so serious.

I also may be a 9 year old but I do understand this election. And I agree with Seleste about Hillary her husband may just be planning this all with Hillary. It's not the immigrants falt they weren't born in the United States and it's not their falt it's not easy to get papers or cross the boarder. Now is it. No. We shouldn't even vote for her nor Obama. I may not be able to choose for you who you think is the best person but I can persue you to. So vote or don't vote at all. Think of our friends who are immigrants. Do you really want them to be tooken away from you are to stay her with you.

Unfortunately,Obama has to respond ,Hillary and Bill know it.This is only hurting us make our decision.Hillary's had her chance in Washington,it did'nt get us away from the Washington Two-step.Obama wants to get us away from politics as usual,after 8 years of Bush,could it be any worse!

"Though not yet on the air, Obama's radio ad includes the claim that the New York senator is the bearer of "false attacks" and "will say anything to get elected." "

Please cite some facts, not inuendo.

Obama wants to walk away from the rookie comments he has made, but they show that he is not ready to take on the big leagues.

I do believe it was Hiliary doing the crying a few weeks ago. Some people have very selective memories.

On a serious note, who really thinks that Hiliary can win in November? If she polarizes fellow Democrats in her own party, what makes anyone think that she could unify the country?

Well Teresa, seems you are confused and extremely partisan towards the Clintons. You need to read more than one or two of these to get to the nitty gritty dear. We all know who started this crap and now that Obama is fighting back you come up with some dumb iliterate comment like that.. Get the facts right.. Its ugly but he is fighting back against the "status quo" and the lies the Bill and Hill show are throwing out there. Its to bad because I would personally like to hear more on the issues instead of watching a 5 round fight. This can only be accomplished by listening to Edwards between rounds.. Oh well.... such is dirty politics

Obama the great divider and the context twisting liar is at it again.If Obama can take statements out of context this good now, just think about what he would do if he were president. Poeple don't be fooled, don't be blinded. This is your future.

Kerry got criticized for doing nothing when swiftboated and Obama gets criticized for fighting back. Make up your mind America. What is he supposed to do?

This guy congratulates the Republicans on being the party of ideas for the last 15 years – and then his campaign says that HILLARY will say anything to get elected? – Maybe Obama should try running for the Republican nomination. The Republicans seem to have a lot more tolerance for hypocrites.

obama keep talking the issue.and dont answer to the idoits
if you cant say anything good keep your trap closed (bill)

Obama now is filing a complaint on the Nevada primary, I think because he lost.
A lot of people are tired of the spat between Hillary and Obama because there are so many enormous issues facing our country today , largely because of the republicans. FOR OBAMA to say that Reagan (and the republicans by implication)
had the better ideas during the last 15 years is remarkably dumb for a graduate of an ivy league university. No wonder he is getting support from some republicans
which to me is smart politics fot the GOP. They will beat Obama and they know it if Obama by some unforeseen circumstances wins the nomination.

The race card (issue) will remain throughout the campaign. It showed in Nevada
where 80 % of black voters voted for Obama....and they will do that in many of the states because this is the very first time they have a black Candidate who is eloquent and appealing to them . They really dont care if He has experience
in Administraion, Economic and Foreign policy, Health care , Medicare, Social security, you name it . Obama has completed barely half of his First term as a senator.. And what has he accoplished in the US Senate? Nothing.
One other thing. Obama ignored and diminshed Bill Clinton's two term presidency in which The country had a huge a good economy and a huge Budget SurPlus which has been squandered by the republicans. Bill clinton did a lot for South Carolina's African Americans, but they seem to have forgotten it and seem dis-inclined to be grateful to Bill Clinton for it. We will see if So. Carolina's African americans remember or just vote on race.

DANG THE DEMO'S ARE NUTSO'S-LMAO

This country will never move forward if we keep electing liars into the White House

I'm starting to remember why id didn't pay attention to politics for such a long time. This is disgusting.

Having been leaning somewhat towards Hillary, I now believe Obama to be the best candidate. He is not perfect, no one is but he is the least flawed among those running. His many endorsements and supporters across varied political and ethnic lines really speaks to his ability to bring unity among those with differences as well as his ability to recognize both sides of history, ie his much misunderstood Reagan comments) are all very real virtues, especially after all the partisanship of the past years. Many in both parties will want to continue down the path of partisan politics, but that is not the road to a better America. Some will claim Obama's alleged lack of experience, this may be but clearly those with experience get things wrong just as much if not more so. And as we all know, politicians as a group tend to mislead, distort and "triangulate" particulary the longer they have been around, its almost the inevitable nature of the profession, but Obama certainly is the least affected by these vices, and it is refreshing to see. GO OBAMA '08!!

He's taken the heat, now its time to throw some back.We all know this man and his tribe are liars No More Bush/Clinton.

I wish we had had a chance to hear Obama's opinions on these issues in the 90's. how could he have voted at the time? Oh... wait... he wasn't in the office then. How convinient to have a resume as thin as an onion skin!

Now let me get this straight. Obama is being called a cry-baby because he wants this election campaign to be done in an dignified way versus throwing mud at each other. Hillary cried on TV and some was I am moved because she wept. Give me a break. You can continue to let people distract you by fighting or you can only listen to what they are not saying. ISSUES AND CHANGES – HOW?

That is how Bush has been served two terms. Don't fall asleep again. Stay alert!

It is really funny if you think about it. Obama didn't start this but in defending himself he HAS to out her. Only thing is HIS comments are backed by FACT and Video.

Live by the sword you die by the sword. Billary deserves it. But it makes the whole party look bad.

It's a shame the Clinton campaign insists on throwing mud at a fellow Democrat. Obama has worked hard from the start to push the campaign on the theme of change and unity, and Clinton has done everything in her power to tear him down. Practically all of Obama's criticism of Clinton is just responding to the mountains of dirt that Clinton has flung on him. And "INDEPENDENT," the general election will be a breeze for any Democratic candidate–America is thoroughly sick of the disaster that is the Bush Administration and of the Republicans. We would have to be completely naive to elect another Republican. The winner of the Democratic Primary will be our next president.

Let's go Obama!

"He just can't let it go, can he? At the end of the day, the people will see Obama for what he is, and elect the strongest, toughest, most qualified candidate. And it sure isn't going to be Obama. This relentless attacking and maneuvering is making him look desperate and will backfire on him big time."

Wow. Hillary puts on an attack ad, and you accuse Obama of attacking?

The world is turned upside down!

JUST SAY NO TO HILLARY!

Seems like he's handling things just fine...

Obama08

maybe now Hillary can concentrate on her campaign and stop talking about Obama....

the idea that hillary won't change anything is one i find absurd.although I am from northern ireland perhaps i'm out of line in contributing to this debate as this americans election not mine but i fell it is relevant. The visit of the clintons in 97 was crucial in finalizing the end of the trouble here. hillary worked with and continues to work with womens groups and gave them a voice to call for peace that noone was listening to before. This brung about profound 'change' ending thirty tears of terrorisim and violence and has set northern ireland on coursefor a bright and prosperous future.
this is why many in northern ireland are eternally grateful to america and thereason i feel i can raise children herewith out fear of being bombedand killed.

I respect all the candidates for the nomination but i just thought i should point out that nobody has a monopoly on change

Good for Obama on setting the record straight. I am ashamed I voted for Bill. I won't make that mistake with Billary!

Obama is mean if he turns to race card. A president can not be elected by mobilizing one race. Focus on issues.

If I am not mistaken, it was Hiliary who did the crying a few weeks ago.

Obama started this whole thing by putting a lying radio ad in spanish here in Nevada...he is such a jerk....and those who follow him...a bunch of ignorant sheep!!!

i agree if you cant take the heat get out obama
isnt it time to change your diaper

that's funny, so i guess he is suppose to just take the attacks lying down? if he did that then you would be saying he is wimp for not defending himself...whatever!!! fools!

wow... they should stop with this attacking of each other or they will get hurt in the general election. Loyalists to HIllary and Obamas would just be turned off by this, and will not vote if their candidates choice doesnt win the nomination. Coz to be honest, I'm a loyalist to Hillary, and hearing Obama's attacking Hillary turn me off, and I'm getting the 2nd thoughts again in voting for Bloomberg if he decided to run and HIllary doesnt win.. and to be honest also, I agree with Hillary and Obama is just fighting back to get to her. I am sure you Obama-die-hards would think the same way as i do, but you dont care about what HIllary have to say instead of Obama.

But as Hillary's supporter I have to say, Obama always tell us voters that what Hillary is campaigning against him and talking about him are all untrue. I just find it strange that he never (or very seldom) explain and fight back by giving honest answers to it. Instead he just say Hillary is talking nonsense, bla bla bla, and attack HIllary too...

And to response to the ad, so what if she was for NAFTA? at least she admitted it was a mistake... at least she has the experience to know it is a mistake. You can't just say "OOO u voted for it and its wrong so you will be wrong for all the decisions you make"... To make a point, No one knows Iraq was a mistake!!!!! Back in 2001, Americans want WAR!!! Now in 2008, we might think otherwise, but be honest here people, with the information Bush administration gave to the Congress and to the public, you didnt want the war back in 2003?? Hell I want to go to war just to counter-attack the terrorists and the groups & country who affiliated in any way, to the tragedy of 9/11. But now we know its a mistake, and know that staying there risking the life of American lives is a mistake. But anyways, the point is, she took responsibility and learn from the mistake and from that experience. So where was Obama when the Congress voted for the Iraq war? Where was he when NAFTA was approved? Now we know its a mistake, and he brings it to our attention for what exactly?? To say he will vote against NAFTA and the war back in the days when the issues were brought up in Congress?? I would protests on the streets back in 2003 when we invaded IRaq if I know the situation in Iraq would be this way. (btw, Obama did admit that he would not know how to vote if he was in Congress back in 2003... in case you thought i'm talking nonsense, read this site: http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2007/05/obama_slams_cli.html )

I think it is wonderful that Senator Obama is not allowing the Clinton machine to trample all over him.

Obama '08

Even though I am a child who is only 13 years old I also have an opinion about this election if only people would listen and hear what I have to say about this election. Well, my opinion is that Hillary Clinton is a mean woman who is planning to take all the immigrants out of the United States with he husband. I may not be an immigrant but most of my family is and it's not easy to get papers. Either Hillary and her husband are races or they just don't want them here. That's not all I know about her. It's that she wasn't going to run for president until her husband told her to. Which makes me believe that he is planning this all.

To thyself be true!

The reality is that even if he wins the democratic primaries, the republicans will have a field day with the Reagan comment. Already Giuliani mentioned that Obama was no Reagan.

At one time, he invoked himself as a MLK successor. Well MLK did not aspire for the oval office. He advocated for racial equality and worked with a willing president to make it happen.

He just can't let it go, can he? At the end of the day, the people will see Obama for what he is, and elect the strongest, toughest, most qualified candidate. And it sure isn't going to be Obama. This relentless attacking and maneuvering is making him look desperate and will backfire on him big time.

Now that's what I'm talking about! Obama 08!

Swweeet! Put that in your pipe and smoke it Billary! And be sure to inhale this time you liar!

Well done!

Obama needs to respond swiftly and truthly. It's not an attack, it's a counter-attack

That's right! Fight back Obama.

Obama'08

I am so tired of this bickering back and forth....I thought we had adults running for the office of President...Why don't you start thinking of the People of the US and work on how you are going to get things back on track????

good job OBAMA...i loved it

There goes the politics of hope. We elected democratic congress to end the war which they promised to do. People wakeup! these people say anything to get elected. Don't go by party be a proud independent.

NO DOUBT IN MY MIND, OBAMA IS THE MAN OF CHANGE. HE HAS TURNED THIS INTO THE DIRITEST PARTY FIGHTS I HAVE EVER SEEN. HE STARTS THE DEBATE WITH AN ATTACK ON HILLARY AND WAL-MART, THEN CRYS FOUL WHEN SHE HITS HIM RIGHT BETWEEN THE EYES WITH REZKO. NOW, WAL-MART MAY HAVE LABOR ISSUES, BUT THEY HIRE A LOT OF PEOPLE. REZKO, ON THE OTHER HAND IS A MAJOR LIABILITY TO HIM. 5 BILLABLE HOURS MY A– A HOUSE DEAL THAT STINKS OF CORRUPTION. LET'S SEE IF HE CAN STAND UP TO A KEN STARR INVESTIGATION.
RATHER THEN DEFEND HIS COMMENTS, HE SAYS WELL, WELL WHAT ABOUT WHAT YOU SAID. TAKE AWAY HIS SERMON AND HE SSSTURTTERS ANS SSSTAMERS.

People in S.C. should show their pink slips to Bill Clinton for his push for the most favorable trade agreement for China in November, 1999 just before he left office.

The Clintons rode the economic boom after the cold war around the world.

They know the economy will suffer after 8 years of trading with China and NAFTA.

This has created the need to beg the Clintons back to rescue our economy.

obama is too much of a cry-baby to get elected... I thought he was above all of this bickering, and that he was not a typical politician... If he can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen... b/c the general election will be hell in comparison...

America wake up vote not on race but on who is the best candidate... I know i will

Give it up Obama! I have read comments in context, and I think truth is something that escapes you. Your own dismal record betrays you. Is this why you keep parroting the same old tired lines? I'm ready for a change, but it certainly isn't you.

No to Obama!

If Obama didn't want Hillary to capitalize on his comments about Reagan and the Republicans, he should have kept his mouth shut. He said what he said so don't say that Hillary is taking what he said out of context. Again, lack of experience.

Straight and to the point stick to the facts and don't adlib. The fake democrats will call this an attack on Hillary. This is in reponse to her ad and nothing else. Too bad he has to waste time on correcting Hillary. Now Hillary when are we going to hear more about you and our issues instead of what you think Obama said some of us are smart enough to figure out what Obama said without your help somehow when you translate the meaning loses something along the way and can be misleading. I want to hear what you have to say and I really would appreciate if Obama would let me figure it out on my own.

Good for the Obama camp. Hit back!

I'm not a huge fan of mud slinging, but I'm glad that Obama can get his hands dirty when provoked. Clinton has continuously slandered him and sometimes with the help of Edwards.

Wait a minute, that sounds exactly like what was happening at the beginning of this race. Large debates with everyone "ganging up" on HRC. Now the shoe's on the other foot and it just goes to show he's the clear front runner.

South Carolina will realize it on Saturday, the world finally realizes it on Tuesday.

Yes we can... Obama '08

Hillary is an artist of distortion and slight of hand... look over there and not at me.

Her campaign is purposefully distorting quotes and spreading falsehoods. In her radio ad slamming Obama for his "The Republicans were the party of ideas..." quote, she conveniently leaves out the sentence prior to this and his judgements of those ideas just a few sentences later. By pulling it out of context she is trying to paint a much different picture of what Senator Obama was saying.

Obamas full quote states:
"The Republican approach has played itself out. I think it's fair to say that the Republicans were the party of ideas for a pretty long chunk of time there over the last 10, 15 years, in the sense that they were challenging conventional wisdom. Now, you've heard it all before. You look at the economic policies when they're being debated among the presidential candidates, it's all tax cuts. Well, we know, we've done that; we've tried it. That's not really going to solve our energy problems, for example."

And just to be clear that it is the Clinton Campaign specifically distorting the facts and not some outsider contributor or a union that supports her that paid for the ad... at the end of her ad of lies, Clintons voice comes on and says:
"I’m Hillary Clinton, candidate for president and I approve this message"

She thinks the American public is stupid enough to take her at her word and not investigate if her words are honest or full of holes. For shame the road you want to take our GREAT nation down Hillary. Vote for TRUTH!

This is at least an Honest add .

Obama....I understand why you wish to set the record straight, and I think this ad will do that.

But now move forward...don't lose your focus, uniting Democrats, Indy's, and even many Republicans. Let Hillary focus on the past (none of which really matters), and you focus on the future.

Let Hillary "fight" while you continue to "unite"

Obama!!!!!!!!

About time! Hillary is not playing fair at all.

Obama needs to hit back at Clintons using Swift boat tactics to throw him off but at the same time he needs to stay focussed on his meesage of change and hope.
His surrogates could confront Bill Clinton while he stays on his message.

It is beneath the dignity of an ex-president to do name calling and engage in distorting the truth and trying to tear down anothe party leader in the party primary. And he has the audacity to confront the media personnel who question him about this!!Shame on Bill Clinton. He seems a very very desparate power hungry politician right now who wants the prize by hook or crook

Bill will be remembered in history for causing this damage to the Democratic party and reviving racial tensions in the country. No matter what he does Hillary does not have in chance to get him back in the White House

Little does Obama realize that he is hurting his own candidacy by playing "tit for tat." This is not the same positive, forward thinking politician that existed just a few weeks ago. Without the "higher ground" appeal he is a candidate lost.

old experience is irrelevant today, when it means the same old failed policies

Time to turn the page

Obama 08

We can see you are "Frustrated" Obama. Its OK.

I find it a contradiction that Obama's campaign who continued a misleading radio ad in Nevada without repent is now complaining over someone else's. Obama's comments which I isten to in their entirety left him completely open to criticism. Forget what the Republican party would do with this stuff, what happens when he makes similarly naive statements abroad.

Besides if he wants to clarify what he meant he has had plenty of opportunity. He doesn't because he and his overprotective mama-like staff know he will only say something even worse.

For those who defend him think of how worn out you are going to be having to do that for the next four years. Hope you do not lose HOPE and CHANGE your mind.

The Clintons are political pros at bending the truth. Their technique is to throw out twisted accusations then cry that they've been fouled.

They insult the intelligence of the American voter but count on blinding enough of us that they can carry the day and their egos.

I hope Obama will stay above it and leave the mud to the Billary.

It's time to turn the page.

I have to question the ability of a person to effectively negotiate and deal with controversial or difficult world leaders or situations if he or she cannot participate in either a polital campaign or debate without become angry, slinging arrows, or otherwise exhibiting an inability to place personal opinion and/or ego aside and deal with the issues at hand. I also have great difficult with people who deal in innuendo and half-truths as that proves a lack of integrity.

As this campaign continues it becomes apparent that the only democratic candidate capable of maintaining his calm and reasoned demeanor is John Edwards.

Despite obvious intelligence and abilities exhibited in the past, I cannot but believe that neither of the other two candidates is mature enough to be able to keep cool in the face of the difficulties of being the leader of the United States.

As an independant who is doing my best to evaluate each candidate on his or her merits, I've all but eliminated Senators Clinton and Obama from consideration simply because I don't trust the ability of either to maintain a reasoned dialog or negotiation when under pressure.

I used to respect Bill Clinton – now I just think he, and Hilary, are into 'dirty' politics and I don't a bar of either of them.

Time to turn the page

One point left out

She voted in 2007 for a war with Iran.

Time for change

obama 08

What goes around, comes around. Bill and Hillary are so hell-bent on winning the nomination that they've done nothing but mudsling through this entire race. I was a big fan of the Clintons in the 90's. I'm no longer a fan.

It's over Obama. Pack it up and go home. Follow Huckabee's model and start pocketing cash to go out in the black. You never should have lied in the debate about those five hours of work for that church related project. That bell can never be unrung. You could have weathered the storm if you had been honest.

This is a great add based on facts , unlike the Clinton's smear machine.

these thing aren;t going to solve our problems i and many don't care about what he did ,hillary , but what are u goiing to do . her campagin is all about de facing him , is that the seed not falling far from the tree. i didn't c her near bill whth all these negatives. hey like she is acting like the past is the past she said bill is and will be campagin for our team remember gor didn't want bill because of........ now the tide is balck u do or maybe becauase that is all u got bill didn't do half as much for gore

Go Obama!

It is Obama's right to defend himself against these misleading and viscious lies. Hillary and Bill just keep on lying, even when it is proven that what they said is a lie.

IT IS TIME TO TURN THE PAGE.

The Clintons cannot expect to DIVIDE A PARTY AND THEN UNITE A NATION.

Obama has the fresh energy, inspiring message, and can take this country in a new direction.

We have the opportunity to elect a truly great president.

Last night the "fact check " part of the show on CNN was scary to see the picture of the Chicago slumlord with whom Obama had busniness dealings.

Obama has to be careful in attacking his opponents when he has shady business deals with nefarious character.

Well at least we know the man is honest. Good job Obama , the country is behind you !

I wish it didn't have to come to this...but the Clinton's started it... and this reminds me of a famous poem called "The Test of a Man." Fight back Obama, but don't let them trick you into losing sight of the message. You got much love in Houston, and whatever happens in California, YOU'LL WIN TEXAS!

""She'll say anything and change nothing. It's time to turn the page.""

amen to that. i think the first sentence perfectly describes clinton's campaign and the second sentence is a clear call for what we need in this next election. THIS is the way to counter against false attacks and misconstrued statements.

Obama the hypocrite. The Clinton adds used Obama’s own words. His add against Clinton is all spin, why not quote her words – not that inflammatory I guess. . So much for his “change” and “unity” speeches.

It seems to me that Obama is doing the very thing that he is claiming Clinton of doing, and thats "negative" attacks. I've noticed that anytime someone questions him about his record or a comment, he or his campaign say that they are "attacking" him. In my opinion if you feel a simple question about your record is an attack then you need to take a second look at your record.

Excellent!

Obama!
'08!
Oh yeah!

It's time for Clinton to get her own medicine the lying witch!! I'm glad Obama is doing what he is, it just shows how much the Clintons want to do anything they can to lie, cheat, play dirty political tricks they know how to do, and they have plenty of that kind of experience in that trickery up their sleeves.

Obama is the right person, Clinton is the worse thing since 9/11! She voted for the war, but she didn't have enough information until it was to late, good answer Hitlery. You could enter the fat thigh contest and win hands down!

Go Obama!

Mr. Obama, seriously, just leave Billary to implode by themselves. Defend yourself by all means because the Reagan remark by Clinton was absolutely misrepresented but please, get back to your words of hope and inspiration and unity.

But if some Billary supporters feel that Obama is merely retaliating and resorting to Billary's shady, negative ways, then let me just say that attacking Hillary Clinton for championing NAFTA and voting for the war is the TRUTH because she did support NAFTA and she did vote for the war. By all means, debate and argue back and forth about votes in order to get through to the public. Do not lie and present words differently and mislead people in order to get through to them!

About time...

Go get her! She and her husband are white collar thugs. Can someone please "tuck Bill Clinton in?" And Hillary? You dig a deeper hole every day, sister. Every day.

Obama 2008

That's about right I must agree. She will "say anything and do noghting". Nohting worth while any way. I think people like the Clintons have mental issues. Such as being habitual liars for the most part. No one can deny that. No one!. Oh and the thief factor. Did they ever return all that stuff they stole from the White House on their way out? Suicides, theft, convictions, impeachment, lies, and death are all the things that the Clinton road is paved with. If she's nominated the democrat part will pay dearly. I hope Barack Obama sees the light before it's too late to do anything about it. – Independents! '08

Obama you are just another politican , where did your politics of HOPE go.
Try whatever you can but you are going to lose on Feb 5.

I don't think Hillary will lose too much sleep over this. She's already proven she can take him anytime, any place. GO HILLARY!!

They should add the TATA Consulting story to it. And explain how Bill Clinton also expanded H-1 and L-1 visas. We are bleeding skilled jobs and we have an invasion of people from Mexico taking unskilled jobs. How long can our economy last? Gee, why is the Dow down almost 1,500 points since the beginning of the year? And why can't people afford their mortgages anymore? You want to talk work and economy? The Clintons cost Americans millions upon millions of jobs, but they sure profited.

It looks it is Bill Clinton, not Hillary, runs for president now. Mike

Good deal Obama...this sucks though.
