I think that cnn and msmbc are trying to elect the canidate of their choice.instead of letting the people of the USA do it. On all debates that I've seen, you let your canidates run off at the mouth for several mins. Then when one of the others do get a chance to talk, you stop them. Why don't you look at the records of your choice. Like these!
Clinton— Missed voting in the 110 congress 104 times of 443 23.5%
Obama– missed voting in the 110 congress 167 times of 443 37.7%
KMccain- missed voting in the 110 congress 248 times of 443 56%
You check it out.
Can we afford a president that dont show up 23.5 % of the time?

Lets face it, The Clintons have hijacked the Democratic party. I have a hard time believing the average working Democrat actually supports the positions Hillary proposes………Here is what you would need to support to vote for this women…Raise my taxes, I'm not paying enough……..Leave Iraq a mess and just keep blaming Bush……..Confiscate Exxon's profits since they are evil corporate pigs in the disguise of re-distribution of wealth, this one is great since nobody apparently in America needs a private sector job, meaning why should we stop with Exxon………why not Walmart, Merck, Kraft Foods, Microsoft etc………hell nobody works for these companies anyway………Poor people provide all the jobs in America…….Rich people never created jobs anyway……LOL……Raise my taxes to pay for health care for the non-working deadbeats, hell we all know they would work to pay for their own if Hillary provides the jobs she lied about creating while a Senator in NY……..did I mention Bush is to blame for anything that may go wrong if she were to be elected………quite honestly this women is so delusional if you listen to he long enough you would think she was running against Bush…….she has a sick fixation with him, I think its jealousy…Over and out for now!

Salida, I agree with you as well. There is some flawed reasoning out there, and I think we all need to become more aware of that "reasoning."

I hate to think that I might have to vote a repub to do my part – AMERICA CAN'T TAKE CLINTON – STOP THIS MADNESS NOW!!!!!!!!

Maybe if Hillary had supported Kerry with more than just words, Kerry would have been President for 7 years now.

Is it possible that Edwards, Kerry, Kennedy and Gore all dislike the Clintons so much they will all support Obama?

Don't be surprised if Gore supports Obama within the next 2 months.

Some of you said that since Bill helped Kerry during his last election, he now betrays Bill by endorsing Obama.

Kerry is not returning his political favor by sacrificing the American people. I did not like Kerry before. Now I like him much better.
The future of America is much more important than the political future of the Clintons.

>Hey Everybody….Watch the last debate when Obama stated that he, like Hillary >VOTED FOR THE WAR and then later had second thoughts. About a half an hour >before he said he opposed the war from the beginning…Which is it? WHY HAS NO >ONE CAUGHT THAT??? Are you all so mesmerized that you can't hear?

Denise, how could he have voted for the war when he wasn't a Senator at the time of the vote?

Nobody cares what Kerry has to say. Anoyine else remember the elecction in 2006, when his Gaffe had everyone telling him to just go away before the election

A vote for the Clintons would like going to your clothes hamper and putting on soiled clothes to wear for 4 more years. Doesn't work for us!

While Billy thinks all has blown over (pun uniintended) concerning his impeachment, "though they repaired the crack in the dam, everybody will still look to see where it used to be." That's one leopard who has definitely not changed his spots!

i want a president who will actually use our tax money for something usefull And lower gas prices

I want a president that will actuayly use are tax money for something useful,and will stop the use of gasoline.

I don't think Bill wants Hill to win. I think he is sabotaging her campaign. I don't think his ego could take 4 years of being made fun of on all the late night shows as being the white house husband.

On the other hand, Bill probably loves the idea of having 4 more years of interns to choose from.

Who gives a rat's fat fanny what this has been has to say about another has been?

I think all you loosers who cant spell loser are total loosers

TO JANE:

You emoted that beautifully and I fully agree!

A question of law: As I see it, Bill Clinton, our first black president, is now running for a third term as our first female president. Is this legal? Inquiring minds want to know. Thanks

With regard to the comment by "leo", I don't quite get how one can make the sort of comment as was made in the first sentence. I vote Democratic and I don't consider myself belonging to a racist party, nor do any of my other Democratic Party friends. I would think that to be accurate in your discussions, you'd phrase your comments to acknowledge that you're incorrect about the party as a whole.

By the way, should I start calling it the "Republic" Party? I see people like you calling the Democratic Party the "Democrat" Party, so I'm wondering if everyone is now starting to drop the last few words from the ends of the major party names. Just wondering.

This is great ! A loser liar chastising another loser liar. Democrats cannibalizing each other…it really doesn't get any better.

Abuse the truth…hmmmm… how about "lying"?

Seriously, someone please explain to me why they vote for obama simply because they have a problem with the "dynasty" issue?

Why are people so obssessed with the last names? Isn't it another form of stupidity?

KB is right…….CNN is bias….that why talk radio is #1…….CNN can't hold a candle to the sucess of AM Talk radio……….20 million listeners a day……..GO AHEAD MODERATOR………are you going delete this post since it doesn't fit your agenda?

I liked Bill till he sold me down the river by signing the NAFTA bill and all the Walmart and China deals that screwed the American worker.

Parsing liberal-speak:

"Republican-style attack" = what the Clintons do for a living

At least a few are now willing to admit that Bill & Hillary are only after what they want and no price is too high to achieve that.

I find it interesting that Senator Obama gets the support of the educated and informed and Senator Clinton generally gets the less educated demographic.

What was it again that the Clintons have done for us (African Americans)?

He knows what's in the Barrett Report, i.e., he knows she can't win. He's trying to avoid disaster for his party.

I am confused..can someone explain to me exactly what the Clintons have done for the African American community? What is it that you owe these two? Bill fell asleep at an MLK function and they live in all white neighborhood. It's not tracking for me. Bush for all of his failures has appointed more African-Americans to senior level positions than Clinton. Case in point Condeleza Rice, Secretary of State. So what is it with the Clintons..they are panderers.

Mike, I think abuse the truth is Kerry speak..for lying like a rug.

SO, if the Clintons question Obama's record, they are bad, evil, lying, etc.? Kerry, Daschle, and the other "establishment" democrats, should butt out – they are only making it worst by choosing up sides.

AND TO ALL DEMOCRATS WHO SAY, IF OBAMA WINS OR IF HILLARY WINS THE NOMINATION, I AM VOTING FOR A REBUPLICAN – WHAT DO YOU THINK WILL HAPPEN IF AN OPENING COMES UP ON THE SUPREME COURT OR WHAT ABOUT IRAQ, IF A REBULICAN IS THE PRESIDENT IN 2009? THINK ABOUT THAT AND QUIT YOUR CHILDISH TANTRUMS.

Hillary Clinton has no place in the White House. The fact that people are still attached to her and support her makes me a little sick. She, with Bill right alongside, has done nothing in this election but manipulate the truth and try to belittle anyone in her way, generally Future President Obama. Bill, I used to think you were the hope for America, and I stood by you while you were in the White House, but I've now lost all respect for you since you are just your wife's trained pitbull now.

Why are my comments still awaiting moderation you pinko slime ? Ha !! I caught you and your jaundiced view of the world. You libo creep.

I blame the media for twisting everything the Clintons have said. I also blame those "established" democrats for fanning the flames of divisiveness. Nothing Hillary or Pres. Clinton said about Sen. Obama was racial. The media and Congressman Clybryn, etc. were the ones who mischaracterize the "fairytale" and "MLK/LBJ" comments.

The media knows that Pres. Clinton "was" well liked in the black community and that is the sole purpose of them twisting everything the Clintons say and on the other hand, they turn Sen. Obama into the "black" candidate.

BTW: I like both Hillary and Obama and will vote for the one who becomes the nominee. I care about the future, esp. the Supreme Court, the economy and the Iraq war and for those reasons, I WILL NEVER GIVE A REPUBLICAN MY VOTE.

BILL CLINTON IS A LIAR.
HILLARY CLINTON IS A LIAR.

END OF DISCUSSION.

Can someone explain what it means to "abuse the truth?"

lies lies lies, cnn is bias

Ivan for Ohio: January 26, 2008 1:33 am ET

It's really amazing to see how gaulible most black America is, even in this century. There is a very good chance to see a black man as President of this great country, but some blacks feel they owe allegiance to Bill Clinton. The Clintons, in their quest for power are looking to build a dynasty. After Hillary the next Clinton the blacks will owe allegiance to would be their daughter. Black America, wake up and lift up your own son. He can't do any worse. Look who's President today.

Ivan,
You may have 8 years of your life to give away to uncertainty, hardships, family and/or friends away fighting an unjust war, horrible financial conditions, no decent healthcare and the list goes on. For me and my family, we're not and are looking to elect a president who will make living bearable. So, we're not going to lift up our own son even if we know it will hurt not only us but the majority of the people tomorrow. Yes, we made a mistake with George Bush, so now should we take a chance that our "own" will not do worse than he did?
I think this is flawed reasoning.

Can someone send this discussion thread to Kerry.

The problem is that the Democrat party is still the racist party of George Wallace and Lester Maddox. They have a obviously qualified black candidate in Barack Obama. Bill Clinton, a admitted admirer of the segregationist former Arkansas Senator J. William Fulbright, is carrying on the "family tradition."

Let's see, 12 years of the Bush Family..and now 12 years of the Clintons.
Let's try something new people. For real change we need new faces.
Vote Obama 08!

Kerryis for sure no patriot but here he told the truth. Clinton, regardless of the first name, is synonomous with lying. After so many years of being so wrong about this country and the people in it Kerry is finally right about something.

There are a lot of Clinton staff active on the Internet today! Be careful Hillary has her way of getting back to you.

It's interesting how many folks have been led to comment on this article.
Let's see:
Kerry has turned on his backers, the Clintons, for his 2004 prez bid ~
Kerry turned on his VP partner, Edwards, for his 2004 prez bid ~
Kerry turned on his country after his Viet Nam bid to "do his civic duty"~

What's next, Kerry? The lifetime pension from the Senate?

The Clintons can play their race card very well. However, they should remember that the November general election is fast approaching and the rest of us will either turn Independents or Republicans.
Mr president, keep up the good work- for the Republicans will be there to gain from it.

Kerry has only said one thing thats correct in the years hes been in the spotlight….too bad this happens to be it! It doesn't take a very bright or bold man to say what every conservative has said about the Clintons since they crawled from under a rock in Arkansas…THEY ARE LIARS!!!! He didn't even have the balls to say that. Then again his courage is renowned…..

OBAMA WILL NOT GET THE NOMINATION BECAUSE HE WONT WIN THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. HE WILL RALL Y THE REPUBLICANS AND ANYONE WHO DOES NOT WANT A BLACK PRESIDENT.

Bill Clinton's presidency was full of lies and corruption. Let's hope he never darkens the White House door again.

Who cares what Kerry says.

One day, and I hope it sooner than much later, the true facts of what Bill Clinton did during his administration. And the role his wife played. Will come out. Most likely after most of the principals are dead and buried. Then, like JFK before him, after the P.R. machine is quieted. The American people, if they can still read or care, will be more than a little shocked at what is revealed.

Just one case in point. Who ever does a time motion study of Bill's presidency is going to discover just how much time and effort he really devoted to doing the people's work. It ain't going to be pretty folks.

And if the wife gets into office. It will be business as usual.

As for the comment about the Right wing smear campaign by some of the true believers. Funny isn't how the "smear" turned out to be true all along. And it was on Dick Morris's advice that they managed to not be thrown out of the White House.

Thank God I am old and won't have to see too much more of this 'garbage' in my lifetime.

I just love how all you Clinton supporters have spent the last 8 years hating Bush stating "coverup" in everything he's done, yet you're willing to turn your backs to all the coverups the Clintons have been involved in and stand ready to ask for more corruption. Your hate has blinded you all! To believe that the Clintons are so innocent is absurb. In stead of some refreshing change, you want to put the same old crap back in power. It's no wonder our government is failing us. Quit blaming our elected officials….. You're the people that keep electing the same ole song and dance.

John Kerry and other liberals have finally discovered what conservatives have known about the Clinton's all along – they are liars. Maybe there is hope for the democratic party.

to Martin Edwin Andersen—who cares what the San Jose Mercury News editorial has to say? how many readership they have? if not because of your honorable mention, they would have disappeared unnoticed . Why don't you quote the New York Times which at least is an internationally known and respected newspaper?
I garantee you Obama will be smashed into pieces by the ferocious Republicans if he gets the Democratic nomination. Want another Swiftboating of Obama?
Only seasoned fighters like Hillary has the winning strategy against the barbaric Republicans because she's been through the hellfire and returned unscathed.

Think not once but twice Mr Kerry who started the race thing it was Mr Obama not the Clentons i want this country to move forward not backwards this is not the way to get in the white house wake up people i am a black man and you have my vote Hillary right to the end.

I love it! Liberals fighting? Two powder puffs can hurt each other. One dope smoking coward calls another dope smoking coward a name. Not one of them could carry a Marine's jock strap! Although Bill might like it!

John Kerry is a miserable loser. his candidacy was torpedoed and ridiculed when he acted nothing to counter the liars who were out to destroy him. we owe him a big favor for handing over another 4 years to GW Bush. Obama must be kind of feeling queasy when John Kerry embraced him snugly in his arm during the endorsement announcement. some people even suggested it's a kiss of death.
Why he decided to endorse Obama is beyond me. perhaps he is still licking his wound in his swiftboat nightmare or he still has problem coming to terms with reality up to this date. what a pathetic figure to begin with.
What we need is a formidable and strong candidate who can withstand all types of attacks from the Republicans. Only Hillary has gone through all that and is able to fulfill this mission in recapturing the White House and restoring our country from economical and political ruins devastated by GW Bush and his diehard Republicans.

How ironic: the phony war hero calls the perjurer a liar.

Thus the tin kettle calling the pothead black……………….

Well done John Kerry. You are supporting the right person.Obama is the best candidate.Enough of the Clintons.

Bill Clinton doesn't just abuse truth.
He also abuses your trust.

…blah…blah…blah….both are lying liberals

Why didn't Kerry support Edwards, his old running mate??

They had so much in common afterall, like their changing positions on the war and their $400 haircuts.

Now he's endorsing Oboma and attacking the Clintons? He just keeps getting it wrong.

Rae

I'll take Bill Clinton fighting for me and my party anytime, anyday, any year, against anyone! I would gladly have Bill fighting on my behalf whether it's against my brother (Obama) or the rich kid down the street (Repugs).
Looking Presidential??? Being Presidential??? Those are his to sacrifice and he clearly has decided Hillary is worth the sacrifice. Don't you folks get it???!!!
Give me a break! Kerry took a plastic knife to a machine gun fight. Come on people and CNN. Bill is just getting warmed up…and this country will be so much better for it. Maybe if Kerry had "allowed" Bill to fight for him, Kerry wouldn't have had to mortgage his house in the primaries OR lose the national and lose the country all in one night.
As a Democrat, I am so sick of us whining about we need to fight and then running scared when one of us starts a fight. Pick your side and work it…but please stop the whining!
I sure as hell would buy a ticket to the butt kicking Bill would give those Repubs in a matchup with Hillary. His recent comments about McCain and Hill having a nice election is a lull…Bill is sharpening his tools and warning McCain!
Michele & Barack need to take some lessons in case the rest of you buy the MEME b.s. and give Barack the nomination. They will need Bill Clinton…ask John Kerry!

Let's think about this people…. If Barack Obama looked like Edward's being the same person and having the same views Barack does now, the Demacratic election would be a forgone conculsion. Hiliary Who….
Things that make you go Hmmmmm

I don't get it, what do you people want? If Obama doesn't respond to the attacks he is weak and can't play hardball and if he responds then he is running a negative campaign, using the racial card and mudslinging. It is a catch 22 for him. Great Karl Rove strategy for the Clintons. Also using Bill as the attacker while keeping Hillary as clean as possible is really cleaver. I just hope that the voters see through this and vote for Obama or Edwards.

I am university graduate under the age of 35 with 6 figure salary and I am supporting HIllary. This post for those arrogant obama supporters who think Hillary supporters are old and uneducated.

What did the Clinton's do for the African Americans or this country for that matter? Bill Clinton sold this country out to the Chinese. Wake up people and read the history on his Presidency. What happened to Ron Brown and Vince Foster and others that were close to the Clinton's. They only want one thing and that is power and if they get in the White House again, the whole world will loose.

Read The Bok . The secret life Of Bill Clinton By Pritchet. You will be shocked How Bonie & Clde Clintons got away with there Crimes

Yeah,

I've often wished I could get my campaign contribution back from Kerry. What a weasle!

I never wanted him as the nominee in 2004 in the first place. I voted for Clark. But I supported Kerry when we got stuck with him, Then he puts his big size 12 foot in his mouth, calling Cheny's daughter a lesbian at the convention. He didn't need to go there. I got so ticked off at him then, I wasn't that upset when he lost.

Now he's turning on the Clintons. He's still a weasle.

Rae

Kerry, Obama, Clinton all together in the same place? Wow, I didn't know the circus was in town!

Kerry is right…Barack is a smart,educated cool&calm customer who will bring some great ideas and new growth to this counrty for all Americans. But some of that vision gets lost because he is forced to defend himself in all directions, and that's just in his own party no less.

What should he do, stand for and accept the clintons negative accusations and distortion of their own truth (nice photo by the way Mr.&Mrs Clinton)?
I used to respect the Clintons now I can't stand them. I'm confused to, who is Barack running against?
These are some dirty people w/dirty politics. Hiliary seems very nasty, and vengeful, do we want that in our President?

What does abusing the truth mean? Why not say lie? Does it mean stretching the truth, what? Does it mean hurting the truth. If you abuse your spouse, you beat them up. So does that mean it is true, just beat up? Splain it to me, Lucy

Bill Clinton is a liar? Wow, Kerry is groundbreaking on that one.

Did anybody notice, when Obama said he is a Christian for more than twenty years now??? What was his religion then when he wasn't a Christian???
It seems like Obama is playing safe to be naive..His weakness: "don't hand him papers in two seconds or else he might lost it", denotes that: in emergency cases he cannot respond immediately as needed when necessary..
His opponent, Hillary is tough, accurate, transparent, ready to serve on DAY ONE, brave of any criticsms, strong and intelligently answers questions, her life history is open to the public, she didn't hide any..yet she is being accused as a liar?
The people are the BEST JUDGE, the election speaks for itself.
John Kerry just want to steal Bill's charisma..it is inappropriate for him to tag Bill "abusing the truth"…its the MEDIA who actually abused the TRUTH!!!
Transparency is the name of the game…and only the Clintons have responsively stand for it…GO HILLARY!!! GO…….

ILL TAKE BILL CLINTON A PROVEN WINNER OVER JOHN KERRY AN ABSOLUTE LOSER ANY DAY OF THE WEEK….OBAMA CAN HAVE HIS ENDORSEMENT. IT MEANS NOTHING!

The Clintons have one aim: personal revenge against those who exposed Bill with his affair with Monika and for him to continue his disgraceful acts in the white house. The Clintons are so scared of losing to a Black man they feel sick to their stomachs and will do anything negative to win at the expense of losing to the republicans in November. Don't forget their role in land dealings in Arkansas and the fraudsters who campain for the Clintons. Bill wants to be in the whie house for reasons not for the American people nor their interests but for thier own selfish needs. Don't forget, the the Clintons are self centered thugs beautifully disguised to look good for nothing. Please ask Monika, she will tell you everything you need to know.

Frankie,

I think it's funny that many of you are insulting John Kerry, but don't have the intelligence to spell the word "loser" correctly. If I were John Kerry and were reading the comments on this blog, I would laugh at those people. He has a degree from Yale and is a millionaire. For full disclosure, I am a conservative(not a Republican) and disagree with almost all of Kerry's viewpoints, and most of those of the Democrat party as well. The fact is, no matter who is being dishonest or disingenuous, Republican or Democrat, they should be called on it. Open your eyes. Most of our politicians are the same no matter which side of the isle they stand on. The more you defend a politician because of some emotional connection or because of the letter next to their name, the less credible you are. Our forefathers would be disgusted at the politicians and the citizens at large that are turning into lemmings watching the country slip into mediocrity without regard for the law. Before you judge me, think to yourself about what I have said.

Maybe the truth behind Kerry's remarks stem from the fact that because Hillary entered the 2008 race, he could not, so now it is an attack on the ABC (anybody but clinton) campaign… or maybe kerry is hoping to be the next vice president– nothing he is doing is purely for the "good of the party".

HEY DUMACRATS! WHY ARE YOU FIGHTING EACH OTHER? WAKE UP! DON'T FALL FOR THIS GARBAGE. IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE WAY THINGS ARE NOW – THEN LOOK AT THE LAST 27 YEARS: DADDY BUSH – VP 8YRS, PRESIDENT 4YRS. HUBBY BILL – PRESIDENT 8YRS. SONNY BUSH – PRESIDENT 8YRS. WHAT – NOW WE WANT WIFEY FOR 4 OR 8 MORE YEARS AS PRESIDENT? COME ON – DO WE LIVE IN A ROYAL MONARCHY? STOP THE BUSH/CLINTON EVIL AXIS JUNTA. VOTE FOR A REAL CANDIDATE – NOT FOR A POLITICAL FAMILY DYNASTY THAT WILL DRIVE US ALL INTO THE GUTTER. VOTE FOR YOUR COUNTRY, YOUR FAMILY, YOUR FUTURE. GOD HELP US ALL.

If Hillary Clinton is elected President for the next 8 years, there will have been either a Clinton or a Bush in the Executive Branch of Government for 36 consecutive years. Isn't that a bit much. As a country I think we would be suffering from (Bush/Clinton/politics of destruction) fatigue. Our country needs a change from these polarizing political families. There is no such thing as, Hillarys turn. For the good of the country these two policial dynasties need to step back back for a generation. That includes Jeb in 2012 or 2016. Wouldn't it be great to have presidential candidates from both parties that you could be proud to support.
such as Obama and Mc Cain. Much more preferable than to hold your nose and vote for Clinton or Romney.

Two losers going at it!
Let the fun continue!

have we truly descended into the abyss.

Are we surprised that Clinton is "abusing" the truth?

to Shatner this is the United States of America, racial bias aside, Americans vote on the issues, vote obama 08!

To Debbie in CA:
You are a smart woman and indeed productively educated!
The Clinton needs to stop their primitive campaign style!
We soon see if they change.

Please, don't let me confuse you with logic.

While I could only read about 20 of these comments before getting dizzy … my very first thought is ….

The Clintons, seeing a Hillary bid in the 4 year offing, did practically nothing to help Kerry get elected.

This looks like 'payback' to me.

I had been a consistent supporter of the Clintons from the days of his glorious elections to the painful and shameful days of his impeachment hearing. Not for a moment did I ever think that Bill would degenerate so low to humiliate the office of presidency as is currently doing for his wife. I thought he genuienly loves and cares about togetherness of democractic party, but now it is clear that his ambition to be in the white house for another 8 years has blinded him from the truth, respect and integrity. Why will a former president of the greatest nation on earth engage in the recent mud throwing all because you want your wife to win primaries?

Well, the fall out will be bigger than any statistical estimates could have computed.
For me and many of my friends, the damage is permanent!. Hillary will never get my vote. I will vote for any Republican "grown up" before I consider democrat's fighting babies. Where is common sense, where is decency, where is integrity, and where is honesty? Is it true that the Clintons will say and do anything to fulfil their ambitions of getting elected? I won't bow to the mess!

Kerry you are 100% right……… Bill clinton should chill…………

I am deeply disappointed in the Clintons because of the false attacks on Barack Obama.
For years I trusted Bill Clinton, considering him one of our brightest presidents. Now, I reject that viewpoint.
Obama radiates something that the others do not have– a universality, an inclusivity that America desperately needs. He is a forerunner with regards to a certain unity consciousness that is becoming more and more widespread. I hope that he and Edwards enter the White House. Obama as president and Edwards as vice president. It is not only foreign terrorism that needs to be addressed, but the domestic terrorism created by Big Business with their immense power and insatiable greed.

I am for from a John kerry fan. I do think his views are off from mine…But way to Mr. Kerry!!! Launch a few bombs at ole Slick Willie!

When you are hiring a person to be the CEO of a country, don't you think it might be a good idea to hire some one who has experience as a CEO ?? None of the Dems do. Fact. All of the leading Republicans do. No brag, just fact. Get real people.

Clinton is being slammed by everyone at CNN and the obama hate machine; obama is a divider…. look at national delegates ya'll SC does not matter

watching the Clintons fight the other Democrats like 2 cats thrown in a bag. I love it. The thought of having to look at or listen to another glib Clinton for the next four years literally turns my stomach. I've never been a Democrat, but Barack Obama inspires me. He is articulate, intelligent and not a dissembler like Billary. He or John McCain would be wonderful Presidents.

Kerry is completely ridiculous. First he has the audacity to not support his former running mate and next his impertinence allows him to blast a former president. Kerry didn't win his bid because of character and his attitude is thus again reflecting his lack of authenticity.

I don't get why the hoi polloi on here are so dismissive of Kerry simply because he didn't win in 2004. Do you really think this man is a sore loser? Remarkable people lose elections all the time and go on to remarkable and relevant careers. Walter Mondale? George McGovern? Al Gore? This isn't an episode of "Smackdown," for Christ's sake.

As a republican, I'd like to weigh in with my thoughts on this.

I watched as much of the Demo debate that I could tolerate on Monday night and walked away thinking that John Edwards should just stand on the sidelines and watch these two gasbags self-destruct. Neither of them is worthy of the respect that the President of this country deserves. In fact, Edwards could rise to the occasion and every time he's called on, answer the question, point out where he stands on things and then watch the fireworks when Clinton and Obama tear into each other. I

As for Bill, it's always been the practice that former Presidents have stayed out of presidential elections. This campaign is an interesting situation where he's the spouse of a candidate, something where he has the chance to set the tone for how this case is handled in the future. Unfortunately for the nation, he's falling back into the standard MO for the Clintons in a campaign. Kind of sad.

People have short memories of the Clintons — the absolute shame Bill brought to it and the impeachment! Who is going to represent us around the world, weakling Hillary? Strong in words when she has her "loving hubby" speaking for her. When she doesn't get her way with other world leaders, does she bring Billy in to fight her battles? Is Billy going to fight her battles on the Hill?? Wake up, America!! Let's get some fresh blood into OUR WHITE HOUSE!! We have an intelligent bi-racial, well educated young man who is able and willing to lead!! Let's keep our White House cleaned of the Clintons and elect Obama!!!

Obama is biracial, black and white. I don't have to be black in order to relate to him or feel that he understands my challenges as an ordinary American. I think that reducing the vote to a racial vote is a miscalculation on the part of the Clintons. It is like reducing a vote for Hillary as a feminist vote (if so, how ironic).

Bill Clinton has every right to support his wife in her campaign but that does not have to include dumping on her opponents with lies, smears, and plants/shills. You can support someone without tearing other people down. Laura Bush interviewed during the last election and all she did was boost her husband and I thought that was the key to her appeal.

The accusations of Kerry being "disloyal" is laughable when discussed in relation to the Clintons. Anyone with a large enough wallet can easily purchase their loyalty, or at least a picture of it.

It's really amazing to see how gaulible most black America is, even in this century.
There is a very good chance to see a black man as President of this great country, but some blacks feel they owe allegiance to Bill Clinton. The Clintons, in their quest for power are looking to build a dynasty. After Hillary the next Clinton the blacks will owe allegiance to would be their daughter. Black America, wake up and lift up your own son. He can't do any worse. Look who's President today.

So let me get this straight…I am Black so I am supposed to vote for Obama and I'm somehow showing my allegiance to the Clinton's if I vote for Hillary…get over your crap dude…I am black and I am voting for Hillary because I think she is the best candidate …period.

What a jerk Kerry is, first his endorsement over his former running mate was very dishonorable, second his bashing of Bill Clinton. We all know Kerry has issues with the Clintons. But if people remember he had to pretty much beg Bill Clinton to campaign in states like Pennsylvania. How was it possible for someone to loose against George Bush??? I'll tell you the reason why, because Kerry ran a terrible Campaign, he had to bring the Clintons in at the last minute to revive his status even in Blue States. With that being said, I voted for the guy and even worked and donated to his campaign. I know in my heart this is another Kerry machine move for future prospects. This guy has a large network, do not forget this.

A Different Educated Voter::

Surely you must know, generalizing something as complex as educated vs uneducated support towards one particular candidate makes you somewhat of an idiot.

Are you telling me that only Educated people are able to think for themselves?

You must be young and in college. I finished my college, but do plan to return.

I have looked at all three candidates. And this is my opinion:

Hillary Clinton has been in politics for 35+ years. She has fought for many different things including women's rights in corporate america. She was first lady to a man who "some" people lable as one of the most horrible presidents. Many of those people were still with mommy and daddy during that time. The Clintons are politics and I felt sorry for a newcomer like Obama to go against the machine.

Barack Obama has experience in politics, altho not as much as Clinton. He is a great motivational speaker and I can understand how he appeals to the younger crowd. This man has more charisma than Hillary, he's like Bill was back in the 90's. His record however says alot about his character. His present votes and his missed votes are something I can't look over. Also, when Hillary was front runner in this nomination, both Barack and Edwards attacked her. Now when Hillary attacks back, Barack calls foul. Barack does not have the structure to stand up agains the Republican party. Tho Democrats have the help of the Bush Administration this next election.

John Edwards would make a great president. He has shown he is above the mudslinging, but he has also shown he can throw a punch. Edwards hasn't been in the spotlight so I have yet to tell if he can take a punch. Obama has been showing alot of frustration with the Clinton campaign.

Democrats. You all need to step back and take another look. All three of these nominee's have lied. All three of these nominee's have cheated. They are regular people like you and I. This race has divided the democratic party so badly, we may not stand a chance come november. The people to blame for this segregation are not the nominee's, but the people who are so stubborn, they'd rather throw away their needs, their beliefs, and their goals, than vote for another democrat with the same needs, beliefs, and goals.

Hillary Clinton is leading in the national poles. A clear front runner needs to be decided come February 5th so that we can put aside this petty segregation, and start supporting our democratic candidate for president.

The Government is in such a trench right now it's going to take someone who knows Washington to get us out.

Hillary already knows the floor plan of the whitehouse. Obama will need a tour.

To Debbie in CA,
I really think you are in error about your demographics for New Hampshire Results. Obama received a majority of his votes from sections of NH that are remote and disadvantaged! That is factual! Just look at the maps and the truth is there. In almost every area of high density and secondary education locations, Hillary Won. So for you to say that Obama took the educated vote is absolutely INCORRECT!

I lived in NH for almost 30 years and I will tell you the truth…that New Hampshire has one of the fewest populations of blacks. I say that not as a racist but trying to cover the entire array of darker skinned individuals.

Now at the same time… South Carolina will vote heavy because of the opposite reasons. SC will cast a strong Obama voting results! Just like Oprah… who turned her back on her female followers to cast her preference for a black man!

The election is a popularity contest not one built of experience nor honesty. It is clear that Obama has no experience while the Clintons have questionable honesty. People will vote for "their kind" and that is visible in elections around the globe!

Being a moderate Democrat for many years, I must say that I am sick and tired of the Clintons. I made up my mind: if Clinton is going to win the nomination, I will sit out or even vote for the Republican (depends who it is) this coming fall. Somebody who does and says anything just to become President – no matter what the facts are – should never become President.

Isn't it strange that Libs call Kerry a sore loser-but but not Al Gore.
Bush is a liar-but not the Clintons. My what a mixed-up world they live in.

Denise,

Obama was not in the Senate when that vote was taken. Get your facts straight.

I can't believe either one of them. What a hoot!!!

It's obvious that leftties can't spell and they critisize us ? How many of the respondants have a BS from Yale and an MBA from Harvard ? George has.

John Kerry, failed Presidential Candidate, should be considered an expert on the concept of stretching the truth. Did I mention that he served in Vietnam? Well maybe 230+ Swift boaters are just liars! Anyway, he and Bill are in the same camp and I feel Obama will suffer from both. The change we need in this country is to put these political dinosaurs in historical storage!

Angelina make me #3 and I know of many more that will do this. I am a white, female, senior citizen registered as an Independent voter who became a Democrat as long as it took me to mark my ballot and after that registered as an Independent before i left the polling place. I vote for the individual and not a party. I will be in the polling booth but my "X" will not be for Hillary and I can not say, at this time, who will be receiving my "X".

I am sorry, but if you can't even beat G.W your comments about who should win don't matter much. I would really like to know what "truths" Kerry thinks are being distorted. That question never seems to be addressed.

EDUCATION is the KEY
Obviously most of the posters are in severe need of it!!

Relax democrats. It's not terminal. You can still come over to the light. Go GOP !!!

Hey Everybody….Watch the last debate when Obama stated that he, like Hillary VOTED FOR THE WAR and then later had second thoughts. About a half an hour before he said he opposed the war from the beginning…Which is it? WHY HAS NO ONE CAUGHT THAT??? Are you all so mesmerized that you can't hear?

Kerry's right . How can you honestly attack someone based on lies. Talk about the kettle calling the pot black, if you want to know what kind of President Billiary is going to make just investigate for yourself the whole Peter Paul fiasco. The abuse of power by Bill to cover up this fraudulant 1.2 million dollar nightmare should give everyone a clear picture of what's kind of shennagins that the average Joe will have to pay for. Obama has been upfront with the people and it is unbelievable how quickly people forget what the Clintons have done. REMEMBER THAT THE ONE WHO HAS DONE THE MOST WRONG WILL ALLWAYS SCREAM THE LOUDEST AND POINT TO OTHERS.

Glad to see one of your own, John Kerry, thinks Bill Clinton is over the top and his lies ignored. I feel so proud that George Bush, Senior, never went out barn storming of George W. He knew how ex-presidents should conduct themselves.

Anyone who has paid close attention to the race knows that Kerry is spot on here. Regardless of who you support. Bill Clinton is again playing fast and loose with the facts. And again, he is playing the media like a violin.

So John Kerry (who served in Viet Nam) FINALLY noticed that the Clintons are liars? And now he takes his opportunity to Swiftboat them!!! This is hilarious!!! As if the Clintons, as disgusting as they are, are any bigger traitors, self-serving liars, cowards, and frauds as Kerry (who served in Viet Nam). If the people of this country re-elect the Clinton cabal to the White House, they will deserve to have their taxes raised, their economy devestated, their health care severely dimenished, their oil and gasoline rationed, and their kids brainwashed with liberal garbage.

I echo my brother's comments from Tstin, CA. I cannot vote for the Democrats if Hillary is the nominee. Have had enuff of the Clintons.

If it takes Sen John Kerry to tell you that a Clinton distorts the truth, then I have a beautiful piece of ocean front property in Mongolia for sale…..paid in full with Euros or bars of gold, please. The dollar is weak now.

I'm still trying to figure out which Clinton is running for office here. Hillary even takes a subserviant position to Bill when they stand on stage. Check it out, she tends to stand to his left and slightly behind him. If she gets elected to the White House, who is going to be the real president behind those presidential decisions (Bill or HIll)? And is our Swiftboat jockey trying to get lined up for a VP position here? Gosh, can't even imagine that combination. Bill/Hill and the war hero all running the company. Or is it Hill/Bill and the hero?

Talk about the pot calling the Kettle black. They're both loosers…

Hey Ben from Columbus, Ohio: Why don't you change your name to Thomas, you big Uncle Tom, you.

John Kerry's flip flopping again uselessly. Will hurt Obama. Party affiliation notwithstanding, dissing a former vastly more popular ex-US President is not good politics. Face it, Bill Clinton based on sheer performance statistics, was still a much better President compared to the current one – on the domestic economy (recall budget surplus), world relations, military (recall Bosnia – executing a clean surgical war just enough to ensure victory, smart enough not to get embroiled in it.). America was successful domestically and internationally. on top of the world then!

I like Obama – smart, intelligent, eloquent, fellow colored man.. but he does lack the experience. The presidency is not about eloquence. It is about experience and the ability to deal with seasoned politicians in Washington, and world leaders and issues.

But the presidency is not about whether a black man, woman, white man, republican or democrat or independent is at the helm with the finger on the button. So we need to stay about the fray here and these nasty politics.. We need to examine who truly has the experience to solve the complex mess we are in – economy, international peace, war.. There's been too much fear mongering, robbing the country blind to fund a war that was based on lies, and causing international instability in the middle east.

The next president should be someone who's been there, sees the importance of not wastefully spending on reckless wars, pulling the economy from its bootstraps, investing in job growth, production of goods, investing in innovation and research, stuff that made America great leader of the world, restore its respect in the world.

Believe it or not.. I think Hillary would be a good choice. for President (apologies to Hillary haters) with Obama as the VP, and having Bill Clinton around would not hurt either. We have series of serious, complex, intertwined problems.. We need a team that has been successful before to be there again. Having Obama in the mix, as VP would help to keep the Change theme going.. and keeping the Clintons honest.

The only thing I dont like about Hillary is her pro-choice stance, and her vote for the Iraq war.. but her keeping her family together in tough times is commendable. If she gets us out of the Iraq war, without compromising national security that would redeem her. She needs to be more fiscally conservative. Bill's public repentance, apology and asking for forgiveness for his sexual indiscretion while in office, redeems him, IMHO.

– a fiscally conservative, anti-war, pro-lilfe voter.
(surprised?)

I voted for Bill Clinton twice and after i saw him lie and induce race into the campagin
not only am i going to vote for Obama if I see Clinton on the ballot im going to vote republican.

you have freedom of speech problems, as-to posting opinion? shame on you.
I wasn't offensive….that's the state we are in, folks…..*sigh

I totally love that B-Movie- Carnasaur, when the military jumps into that broadcast station, and arrests the clowns that are trying to cover-up the impending disaster.

I watch MSN for the hotties on FOX, and that's about it….*sigh

Read the news on various sites, and listen to the so-called, waning Talk-Radio audience…*sigh…you people are so-friggin' daft !

Even people like myself; aren't as stoopid to drink your Kool-Aid anymore.

Now, print-this, or get off My-Algore's internet !!!

John Kerry is a snobby, full of himself, righteous fool! He is a turncoat….(sold out Edwards) hoping that he will get an appointment from Obama..
He is linked with Senator Kennedy…..need I say more…..

John Kerry lost the presidential election four years ago and is only thinking about his own publicity. Bill Clinton was president twice…. Kerry could not even make it once, even against a president who was already unpopular because of the war

Sit down John and zip it…. you are a L, L double L …..Loser.
Go back to sking with your billionaire wife…. flying around on private jets….pretending that you understand the common mortal……AHHHHHH!!!!!!

The Swift Boaters are the traitors.They do business today with the Communists in Vietnam.

WE NEED TO GET BEHIND JOHN EDWARDS & get clinton & obama out of our hair – EDWARDS / LIEBERMAN 2008

Hey Kerry, You blew it on your own, many of us worked very hard for you and you let us down. I don't believe Bill and Hillary will. Go get em Clinton's.

OBAMA'S camp started the race thing and I would bet my paycheck it was pushed by Jesse Jackson.THEN Bill started the mud slinging. OBAMA made the first attack on Hillary during the debate.
Why are the Clintons getting all the blame and not Obama???

Having voted for Kerry, I can't imagine why he is being so outspoken for obama against Clinton. He might have been president now, if he had shown some guts when he was being swiftboated. Instead, he let his constituents bleed for him and what they were saying about him. By putting in his two cents now, he is throwing fuel on the fire, and contributing to a fracture in the Dem. party. I guess his character is such, that he can only throw snide remarks, after all, it's not his fight, we already know what a wimp he is when it comes to defending himself. So, Kerry, unless you can contribute positively, try windsurfing !

Obama is the best choice for theRepublical party not for the Democratic party. They will call him OSAMA the moment he get the nomination Also Bill is not running he already WON twice and if constitution allow he could beat anyone.

I am getting really frustrated by this debate… and I deeply questioning the motives behind John Kerrys involvement.(poor Choice, Obama!) As already mentioned, Bill Clinton campaigned for him and Edwards was his running mate. Very likely that he will let Obama down as well. No integrity to be found in his behaviour…Also, it was Obama, who started to attack BClinton through his Reagan/ Clinton comparison. Understandable for me if Bill Clinton shoots back.
Also, why is it always emphasized that the Clintons are power-drunken? He ran for President and won twice, she ran for Senator and won twice… that was the peoples choice. Obama has no goals that are any different from this. So per definition, he- (and all the other candidates) – is power drunken too. In the beginning I thought he was different, but now – no… this is not about hope. Hope and "unifying" and change, where does it start?…instead of "fighting" for a message about change, why not start behaving differently???.Obama talks about it, but where´s his action? However, Hillary Clinton and Obama together, that could be wonderful, hope they finally will come to grips … for America…

Beside this I am really sick and tired of CNN´s way of reporting… All these hateful little "news" about Hillary,….its just horrible and leaves me suspicious,that there is still a hidden gender problem…Clinton gets attacked because of raising the race topic, but in all these critics and comments about Hillary Clinton is a lot of hidden "gender" adversity. MEN!!!

God Bless America and President William Jefferson Clinton. We are such a better country because of President Clinton. He can do no wrong by me. I trust him absolutely. The times they are a changin. Thank God. And thank God we have Bill Clinton to stand up to the Republicans who have nearly destroyed this great country. With all due respect, Kerry was not able to do the same. Give em Hill Bill!!!

Kerry should find a nice farm and go to work on it. Four years ago he proved to be very inept. He should stay out of the foray. He's a loser.
A half hour ago, my wife, daughter and I proudly voted for Senator Clinton in the Florida primary. We intend to vote for her in the general election. She has the right stuff. Our nation will benefit from her being in the White House as our president.

It's interesting that Hillary – The Queen of Kleenex – has got Bill fighting her battles for her, while Obama – Mr. Premature Withdrawal – has got John Kerry…two pathetic losers shilling for two hollow suits. Too good to be true…

The mere thought that the the Clinton's and Bush's would continue their dynastic conquering of the American people, wielding any means to gain power and bankrupt of any integrity is a humiliation of what our forefathers desired. This once grand Republic has been converted into our now tabloid Democrazy. When the American people have choices like Bill and Hillary Clinton and the Bush's, and these people linger on like flatulence in a small closet, should we wonder why things are indeed as rotten as they appear to be?
The circus is in town, the tent is up and clowns are parading their antics. It's all a circus and we are paying dearly for the show. I'm sore afraid our nightmare is just beginning and when we awake we'll rub our eyes and hear the clanking of the chains permanently affixed. America is being carried off in biblically grand style and she will not return. These words are by no means prophetic but certainly rational extensions of intelligent American's who understand and have read the history of civilizations.

I wouldn't be surprised if Obama wins that Kerry pushes to be his running mate. I don't see a lot of other reasons why he would side with Obama over Edwards.

Kerry formally endorsed Obama on January 10, saying then that Obama "isn't just going to break the mold….Together, we are going to shatter it into a million pieces."

Maybe they took his quote out of context, but…

Having voted for Kerry, I could never figure out why he didn't answer back to the swiftboaters who trashed him so badly. Why is he speaking out now, and mudding up the waters when it's not his fight ? It has to be personal. Had he defended himself in 2004, he might have been president, however, he came out looking like a wimp. The Dems are infighting as it is, and it can't be good for the party. So, Kerry, unless you can say something positive, so what you did before and be quiet !

Psssst CNN!!!!! You put up the wrong picture man.

Kerry is supporting OBAMA…yeah that's right OBAMA. We've seen Clintons ugly face enough already.

That's pretty good…someone who knows the Clintons VERY well and is publically supporting OBAMA. I hope he can help Obama in the North East since ole BillyBoy has Obama in a strangle hold in the South. Now I bet Kerry knows a thing or two about Clinton politics even without reading the headlines.

I think John Kerry thinks Bill Clinton did not help him in 2004 as the Clintons had the Plan for 2008 Presidential election.

As a Democrat –I have given up hope. Both front running canidates do nothing for me. I am appalled at the Clinton — "lets bring back the old days" with an x president and his presidental wife canidate spouting off about all her experience. I want a president who runs on their own merits and qualifications not those she takes credit for from her husband's presidency. I thought Bill was the Clinton elected president in the white house but according to her it sounds like she was the commander-in-chief. I am also tired of the chest beating, backstabbing, lying, and flip floping. On the other hand Obama is a young gifted man with thoughts of change much like B. Clinton had when he took office. I just think that his lack of experience would parallel the mistakes that Clinton had in office due to not being knowledgeable on worldly affairs and international relationships. I will vote Republican.

Does anyone get the feeling that someone (Kerry), is positioning themself to be the Vice President?

Until the history books for our children get rewritten

about our forefathers' genocide of native americans,
slavery,
colonial / imperialist wars,
nuking Japan,
corporate resource grab around the word, and so on,

there will be NO change

in the downward spiral of this nation.

Clinton is a liar. Do you remember ….." i did not have sexual relations with that woman"

I do not understand the current situation of the Democratic Party. As a lifelong Democrat, this next national election is their's to lose.

I am completely disgusted with the Clinton's unethical attacks on Obama. Should Hillary get the nomination, I have seriously thought about not voting in the next election.

The best candidate is right before everyone's eyes and the people can't see it. John Edwards has the best message and is the toughest candidate. The same voters who thought Bush would protect this country are the same people who will continue to refrain from voting for their best interests. When will America wake up and see the real world!!!!!!!

What have the clinton's done for the African American Community? WHAT exactly? not rhetoric….show me the numbers.

And….

Is Candy Crowley a journalist for the clinton's or CNN? Having a difficult time deciding?

hey people,

campaigning is a circus. its all smoke and mirrors and populism. if you dont learn about your candidate early you have no idea who youre voting for. youre only waiting for the winner of a game where the strategies are ad hominem attacks, and populism. heres how i made my choice:

hillary is a subversive, self serving, secretive, and power mongering politician who is all too commonplace in washington [shes a really smart george w bush (scary)].

Barack Obama is an individual that tempers his idealism with his realism. he is a person that genuinely cares about bringing change to washington (and is also capable of being a catalyst for change ie not corrupted yet). he is the only candidate who seems to grasp the interconnectedness of the international political economy and domestic issues.

come on people do me two favors; 1. learn how to spell basic words like loser (seriously) 2. make an informed decision and realize you have a unique opportunity for something new

Thank you, John Kerry. Thank you for defending Senator Obama. Thank you for exposing Bill & Hillary as a couple of thugs…

John Kerry is a Statesman. The American People were the losers in the 2004 Presidential Election! Hopefully, we will have learned something from that experience and follow his endorsement. Vote Obama.

Strategy should be forget Miss Clinton and target only Billy Boy until dooms day. I am sick and tired of this lying and cheating crook and we have not forgotten his nightly escapades in white house and downtown D.C. If he has any shame he will hide under a rock and fade away.

I think as a woman from the other part of the world ,obama is a symbole of unity,hope and manner ,i see in him a man who can bring america back to what we used to call (american dream)wich no body from the outside word prononce any more,obam is a symbole of hope and equality too whene it comes to the big racism america is still dealing with,giving this young man the chance to the white house means giving hope to americans and all nations around the world ,with obama,i can see the great america and peacful world……..please make it happen ,imagine just imagine how happy w'll be……..god bless all.

I am not American but its very easy to see what is going on here …It's true people do promise much during the campaigns and say things to discredit other contenders but most of u guys never figured out why Billy Boy CLinton is getting out of control . . . . . . .

…………………….Many of u ask urselves why Hillary did not leave him after he not only lied to her but also to the whole nation about miss piggy Monika L.. Well ladies and gents . . .he is paying back his dues cos he surely promised to put Hillary back into that same oval office where it all happened . .but this time she is going to be in command . . . .so as we say . . .By Hook or by Crook . .. . . .I am sure the founding fathers of the USA never thought this far as they put down the constitution of this country regarding couples wanting to grab power for more than 2 Terms…………

Well it is left for the people of America to redefine the rules ans set all records straight.

America has something beter than Bush. Its a new bright star…

Well i dont know what u see . . . .I see Obama

Hey i remember the good old days when americans only had to worry about who Bill was seeing, not food, gas, war, jobs, how the world felt about us, loosing your house. Would like some better days, without Bill dating. Not sure if Mr. B obama . can give that to us. Did you know is first name starts with a B also.

CNN please STOP shovving Obama into out throats.

Obama is clearly winning black vote and will win S.C easily. Why are you creating a story as a legitimacy.

UGH! CNN

I hope Mr. Obama will be elected the new presidente of the USA in hopes of garnering more postive growth than we experienced for 8 yeras with the Clintons. Let the new people speak and let the people take over. No more abuses fron the good old boys. Former President Clinton is gone, he should be at home thinking about retirement and not talking about changes to made that were not accomplished previously.
Millons of people in Africa were killed per his policy interests and his infedelities while in office we down right shameful.

No more lies to the American populace. Joining forces with Mr Richarson would bring a lot of Latino votes from his tent as well.

America needs two things, a fair shot at living equally and insituting the linds of changes that will make the country a better place.

I supported John Kerry enthusiatically but he failed to fight back -
Why is he fighting back against a fellow Democratic President who worked hard to get HIM elected?
Kerry's actions make me support Hillary – not Obama.
I'm voting Clinton in my primary.

This man Kerry lack integrity …….. He was not loyal to our country when he was in service…..He married a woman for her money…..now he is bad mouthing the Clintons who have always been supportive of him…..he needs to work on his character flaws…..

go far away KErry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I jst wanted to say that my former running mate is a great guy, it is just unfortunate that his judgement leads him towads the path of blind idealism, if he endorsed me people would recognize he believed in our goal and that is to take back washington from the lobbyist and make sure the proud American would get what he deservers, a brighter future for himself his children and his childrens children, I as president would stand up and fight for the right because I took come from the clss which struggles most in these times of economic turmoil.

Neither the media nor Obama's supporters are not helping him with all the whining about criticism from others. It really smacks of immaturity!

It is disingenious to twist comments into divisiveness, such as screaming racism when Hillary gave credit to Pres Johnson for his push to make new laws to support ML King. One leader's actions does not negate the others–both played critical roles and our country needed both of them. Grow up guys and start looking into ways we can make our country great again–not the greedy global bully we've degenerated in.

If you want real change, elect Hillary. Quit pointing at a gender issue and look at her intelligence, level-headedness, committment, integrity and experience. She has already been tested and proved.

John Kerry lecturing someone about being truthful? Does he think we have forgotten the myriad of sound bites of him contradicting himself on a daily basis during the last election?

For all you that insist on misusing the term "African Americans", please get it straight. Unless you were BORN somewhere in Africa and then became a US citizen, you are not an African American. Plain and simple. How difficult is that for one to comprehend?

One of the funniest news stories on this subject last year was from Brittain. A news journalist referred to a mob of rioting black youths as "African Americans". The riots occurred in England and the journalist was Brittish. Oops!

One of your commenters called Obama a "crybaby" and I just have to laugh at that because it was Hillary Clinton who shed crocadile tears after loosing in Iowa in order to consolidate the white female vote. If we Democrats had any sense at all we would see what is in store if we nominate "the Clintons". The GOP will have an absolute field day rehashing all of the scandals of the 90's. Are we really that naive? She can not win! I actually don't believe that Obama can either for obvious reasons (race and experience) , John Edwards is our best bet but the news media have already decided that Hillary is the nominee by writing off Edwards. America will get exactly what it deserves, another 8 years of GOP rule!

We are talking about race in this primary (especially SC) since Billary's comments (which, even as a white person, I cringed at the LBJ comment when I heard it). Let's look at this- I know black people very well, so much that I know most of them feel that their voice is unheard in politics.

All this primary proves is that Obama can motivate people to get involved- this is commonly students and blacks who feel they are uninterested for one reason or another. So of course, there are those who will vote for a black person or woman just because of that, more importantly, however, this is about change and that Obama has motivated those that were once uninterested to get involved- thus invigorating black people!

I will not ignore that since the famous "comments" were made by the Billary push, it certainly caused some to changeover from Clinton to Obama- but most importantly, this is about all the people that did not used to vote, that will vote now for Obama.

just like the kettle calling the pot black

Where were Kerry's "cajones" while the T. Boone Pickens-funded Swift Boat Vets were laying him wide open with lies?!?!?!

And Personal Lucas McCain:

The Swifties were outed by ONI 2 years ago – they admitted to lying and getting paid in excess of $300,000 to do it. Paid by Pickens, under directions from Rove.

Liberals are natural born liars. If they didn't have all the liberal media domination, they would be run out of this country. Kerry is like the kettle calling the pot black.
I'm proud the swift boat guys told the truth and exposed kerry, like kerry is now doing to clinton.

John Kerry, thank you for speaking the truth. We need more J. Kerry to speak out.
Bill Clinton should chill out, and sit down. His disgraceful behavior these past weeks is unbecoming of a former president. It is shameful. He will do and say anything for his wife to win.

So John Kerry has spoken some truth at last – and about Bill Clinton to boot. Yes, I'm surprised because first of all, he didn't use his favorite euphemism "misleading". Abuse of truth is so much cuter, don't you think. I've finally come to the conclusion that he just can't spit out the word lie so he puts that education of his to work and uses bigger words and phrases.

I have no use for Kerry or Clinton (take your pick as to B or H) but I have to give Kerry credit for saying it out loud instead of on the phone in secret has been alleged to have happened with Ted Kennedy. There has to be that moment when the Democrat leaders finally say out loud "have you no shame?" Of course the answer to that is no, they don't have any shame because sociopaths aren't wired the same way we are – and I suspect that Hills is as big of one as Bill has proven to be. Do we really want these losers to run our country? We all know that if she's elected Bill will be right there insinuating himself into the process – frankly, the 1990s weren't great enough I want to see them repeated into the 2010s. Dems, it's up to you to take away their power and tell them to go back to the hills of Arkansas.

What did Obama promise Kerry VP? It doesnt really matter who supported the war the truth is no one can go in and pull the troops out in one day. Get real. Don't worry our country is about to run out of money – so hence the military comes back and are out of jobs.

Debbie in CA,
That's a creative line about how saying only uneducated voters are voting for Senator Clinton is just one more way to hold down her vote.

Unfortunately for your argument, the demographics are what the demographics are. The fundamental reason Senator Clinton won in New Hampshire and Nevada is because of non-college educated voters and women. That's how it is. Now, is that to say that no college educated voters are voting for her? Of course not. Since you're a pharmacist, you obviously know how to read statistics.

But, the bottom line is that Senator Obama has dominated Senator Clinton is the vote amongst educated voters who are able to think for themselves and see through the masterful spin that Clinton perpetuates (including for example the whole "experience" thing which is much more rhetoric than reality to use one of her terms).

Just the facts ma'am.

By supporting Obama, Kerry is intensifying the infighting of the demos. Edward was his ruuning mate! I feel much better this time for his loss. I can not vote for Obama as he is playing with the race card. Even if he wins S.C., he can not win the majority. I can not understand why some hate the Clintons so much. Don't you think the Clinton years were much much better than the Bush years? Wife can campaign for husband, why not the other way around? Anyone is better than Bush. But Hillary and Edward are better than Obama in experience. Vote for Clinton and Edward ticket!

So, Democrats are just figuring out that Bill Clinton is truth impaired?

Endorsement from Kerry the loser is the kiss of death. Obama beware! Bill was a successful President with a very high approval rating even today. His endorsement of Hillary thus has true value. Journos take upon themselves the roles of judge, jury and prosecution when discussing Hillary's criticism of Obama. Hillary's comments are dubbed "divisive" and "polarizing" while all manner of spin is offered to soften and obfuscate the impact of Obama's comments on Hillary. Obama now shamelessly courts the black vote and yet has the audacity to call himself a "uniter". Come 5th February, Obama will be shown the door by voters and Hillary will be the nominee!!

I'm not shocked that Kerry has jumped on the Obama bandwagon; I'm just disgusted with how Obama has mislead not only him, but so many voters. Countless democrats I know have vowed to vote Republican if Obama is on the winning democratic ticket. Tragic, but absolutely necessary.

I guess Kerry means that only politicians in office have the "license to abuse the truth".

Think about it !!! Democratic party can't afford another lose in this coming Nov after 2000 and 2004. If Bill Clinton didn't do it now Republican will !! It is better for Obama being tested in primary.

Hillary keeps talking about her years of "experience". Based on that… expect to see Gisele Bundchen start the Super Bowl in place of the injured Tom Brady.

Laura Bush 2012 !

Democrats must stop attacking Democrats. It's one thing to disagree with a policy; it's another to attack on a personal level. Democrats should do everything they can to be supportive of other Dems and not give fuel to our collective enemy — the Republicans, who will use every scrap to discredit any Democrat. We don't need to give Karl Rove and his gang of 'swift-boaters' any more ammunition. Grow up boys and girls. Our lives and our futures are on-the-line.

Fed up in Austin.

I think John Kerry is kissing Obama`s butt, hoping to get VP. Obama isn`t that dumb! I hope!

Clinton Supporters -

If your candidate becomes elected, you are effectively giving the White House to the republican party. Think about that. She is the MOST divisive candidate out there – half of the American people say they would flat-out NOT vote for her if she was the nominee. And this is only January! If she continues the way she has been (which she will) – I can't imagine how many more people will jump on that bandwagon. I for one will hope there is a 3rd party candidate I can support if she is nominated, because I don't want to have to stay home on election day (and it's not going to be McCain, Huckabee, Romney, or whoever is left over there).

We cannot afford to give this election so easily to the republican party, especially when their nominees are so pathetic in the first place! It is time for a change from the policies of the GWBush party.

Just something to consider.

The Clintons should have quietly left the political arena, many years ago. Their exit is long overdue and will not be made with grace. They must first finish destroying the Democratic Party. This money mad/power hungry pair should never have been in the White House. Americans must not forget the sleaze factor and the "do nothing" administration of Bill Clinton. If you want to see our country go to hell in a hand basket – elect Hil. And remember, Bill is included in the deal.

The attacks between Obama and "Hillarhea" regarding race: all from the party who claims to not be racist. Absolutely sickening. Re-read your history books people. Oh……….what's that hissing and sucking sound??? The Democratic party going down the tubes in spite of themselves.

why is cnn so biased against Hillary? they never post my comments esp when i bring up the race factor in all of the states outside the south; Iowa the delegates were split so did Hillary really lose there? All CNN does is slam HC and blame her for dirty campiagning; obama threw in the race card and it will destroy him…

Clinton 08

Its my first time to agree with sen.Kerry But he is wrong again,has he forgotten Clinton has licence to lie?he lied under oath

Ya' know what I wish for is that CNN would just report news instead of trying to make news. I think everyone who works for the station should go back to journalism school and take a page out of the Edward R. Murrow book and use it!

John Kerry ought to go back to the senate and start worrying about his seat considering he will be up for election soon. Or maybe his intention is looking at the VP. seat. Oh…now that would be an awful site!

Whether Obama wins or loses doesn't ultimately concern me. But the margin of the victory by whomever, is directly a correlate to the amount of which America is a racist country.

Obama is not black or white. He is the control or the placebo in the test. Be careful America. You are showing the world how far you have or have not come on the racial divide. I can't wait to see the results!

Darth Vadik,
you are shining product of Liberal policies. A perfect example of California public education. I suppose it was the right wing smear machine that took your ability to spell and correctly structure a sentence also. The Billary machine is running out of steam, their own party is telling them to pipe down. Maybe there's hope for a few of you lost souls after all.

So yesterday I heard on the vast right wing talk radio that Senator Clinton says that people from MI & FL want their voices heard, during this democratic beauty contest. Does this mean she is going to ask Howard Dean to count the delegates from those to states now so she can get ahead of Obama? If I was a woman I'd vote for Senator Clinton too because she's a woman.

Go Bill……you 've made your mark not only in America but worldwide.i dont see anything wrong in a man standing up for his wife,atleast Michelle Obama is doing the same for her husband.we need someone with a strong heart as the president of the united state of America.

All you Bush haters are still children. You must hate the Daddy in yourself.
As far as the Clintons go, they are pathological liars. And all you Bush/Daddy haters love to be lied to.
John Kerry is in the same club as the Clintons, he is an elitist liar as they.
Barack Obama is far to idealistic to be the kind of liar the Clintons and Kerry are,he doesn't have his lying act together yet. Give him a little time.

CNN,
Thanks for continuing to push the Clintons' race-baiting with your headlines this morning.

Howard Wolfson and Mark Penn could not have picked a better headline themselves than your continuing obession with the black vote. They're slapping five in the Clinton camp. You've set up a situation where Obama can't win today, no matter what happens.

SHAMEFUL.

Obama introduced that so called race card when he introduced Oprah into his race…..she said in her way that it IS TIME FOR US…..not us being all of the people in the US just part of it……………….Kerry is still a jerk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kerry (being an ex-presidential candidate) should also be quiet as he is being a hypocrite too talking bad about others. It is quite amusing to watch their true colors come out!

Kerry is a loser. I do not care what he has said. My vote is for Clintons. I think Barack will win in S.C because he is black and John Edward will split white votes with Clintons. But Barack has no chance in CALIFORNIA. GO CLINTONS!!!

Hi everyone
If Obama is on the ballet I will vote republican.

OH! If that's not the pot calling the kettle black!!!!!!!!!!! lol!

What former president Clinton should do is rise above the political fray and say nothing. He should have the honesty, courage and moral integrity to let his wife run on her own merits. Former president Clinton cheapens the office of the president with his involvment but then that is one area that he excells at!

Kerry and others are simply feeding the fire. I've watched the news and listened to the candidates, and this business of "racially fueled" by Clintons is just nonsense.

I kept looking for the horrible things the Clintons must be doing and couldn't find them. No facts to back up this nonsense.

Therefore, it must be a strategy. An old one, too. Let's hate the Clintons.

These guys should be ashamed of themselves for being this darn obvious.

Who cares? The Democratic party has forgotten what the issues are. The issue is NOT John "Helmet Head" Kerry. Hillary and Obama. Neither one of them are qualified. As a matter of fact, none of the Republican knuckleheads are either. We are at a quandry in the election of the next President of the United States.I can't imagine any of them "leading" my country anywhere.

What an OXYMORON, to use "Truth" and "Clinton" in the same sentence! The goings on in the Democrat Party is no shock to many of us that do not respect Clinton. He may be regarded as the greatest living American politician, but is that really a compliment?

That's like calling someone the "greatest used car saleman".

Sen .Kerry look in the mirror , there's "something" on your nose!

Another time Kerry makes headlines. He thinks Obama will make him his VP. As the old saying goes, People in __________ want ice water. JMO

There is No HOPE for Obama! No experience and his connections to Islam either through his rearing or current church will be torn apart by the unwanted republicans.

Just because he is an excellent presenter, he lacks in every other area.

The only reason he will do good in South Carolina is because of race! Face it… that is not a racist comment it is reality. The same as poor old Oprah! She turned her back on her "women" just for a racist stand! And now she is facing a major lose of followers.

With all of the democratic slinging, even the republicans are looking better.

Kerry,didn't do good. He is a looser. He could have won in 2004 if had little more sense. We will do it, we should do it I, we have to dot it. Should know more than that.

Bill Clinton has abused the President's title since he was in office. He and Hillary
have made this campaign one of the worst slur campaigns in history. Thats all the Clintons know how to do, is put the blame on everyone else but themselves.
They need to clean there own slates before running for any type of office.
God help us. if Hillary get in as President. Bill will have another 4 years to screw up the White House and tarnish it name and Hillary will probably condon his actions. She did the last time.

I will like to advise the people of america and the entire world that, clinton and his wife should go home and never return again, imagin bill clinton calling obama skinned man or sorts of dirty names is against the law and human race.
Hillary clinton will be a looser and will continue to loose in all her helpless effort.
My advise to obama is let him be strongger every day, clinton family are fighting in vain, the peoples choice round the globe is barac obama, obama is the book of life while clinton is in the book of hell.
The peoples choice is the choice of God almighty while the hell perish in hell.
Obama is the peoples choice ordained by God.

I'm thoroughly disgusted with Bill and Hillary and their back-room dirty politics and tricks. These two are neither brillant campaigners or true Americans. They are liars through and through. My disgust is beginning to seep over to those of you in the Democratic party who would support Hillary. She's a charlatan of the worse kind.

As a life-long Democrat, if Senator Obama does not clinch the nomination, I (along with many, many others I know of) will take a look at the Republican candidates and be done with the Democratic party for good!!! I've had about as much sleaze (Clinton-style) as I can stomach!!!

IF OBAMA SHOULD WIN .

WHO IS GOING TO BE HIS VP. SWIFT BOAT !!!!!!!!!

John Kerry must be working for the "right wing conspiracy." If you want someone who lives in a fantasy world to be your next president, then Hill's your gal.

The bigger question for me is who will be running this country, Hillary or Bill. Will Bill have to step in and fight his wife's battles or will she step up and be the strong independent woman she claim to be. I was a Hillary fan but if she has to run to her husband every time she has a foe to fight I will be giving my vote to someone else.

The Clintons are doing what they ALWAYS do. Blame everybody else for doing exactly what they are doing. Then claim to be the victim. I cannot think of one thing the Clintons have said the truth about ever. But this all needs to be laid at the feet of Hill, ignore Bill, he is just doing what his wife tells him to.

Funny, nobody is noticing the irony of how the Democrat attack machine is waging war against one of its own. I'm not even a Democrat and I despise the Clintons, but I think it's ironic that they (the Clintons) were media darlings just one year ago. I'm having difficulty trying to figure their motives. Are the Democrats really putting all their eggs in the Obama basket? Are they accepting the fact that Hitlery cannot win because of the fact that she voted in support of the war? Or are they trying to keep the Clintons at bay with the media until they switch their support back to them in the final stretch?

John Kerry – the man who gave the 2003 race to the Republicans, by running the worst possible campaign, should keep his nose out of the 2008 race. This man, who basically said and did nothing for a month after winning the nomination in 2003, shows a complete lack of "mateship" for ditching Edwards now. You would think Democrats would be asking this man why he chose Edwards as his running mate in 2003, and yet has dumped the poor man already in 2007.
With a friend like Kerry you don't need enemies.

Kerry is being boligerant and perhaps it is HE who needs to tone it down. It sounds to me as is someone is a little bitter. Bill has spoken facts. Maybe they're facts Obama's campaign and supporters don't want to hear, but they're facts nonetheless.

Listen people, I would encourage you all to do your own deep research. Read books…more importantly, read the plans each candidate has outlined. BE INFORMED! So many of you sound so blind and hateful in your comments. Is that what you want for yourself…for our country?

Hillary '08!

Can anyone tell me what the clintons did to help african americans?

THE FACTS ARE SIMPLE EVEN THE OBAMA NUTS CAN UNDERSTAND IT IF HILLERY WAS NOT RUNNING OBAMA WOULD BE ON HIS KNEES BEGGING FOR BILLS HELP SO NOW HE HAS BILL IN THE OTHER CAMP AND HE IS SWEATING BULLETS HE CAN NOT WIN IF HE IS THE DEMS CHOICE WE (AMERICA) WILL KEEP ON THIS PATH DOWN WHERE THE RICH GET RICHER AND THE POOR GET (WELL YOU KNOW) WAKE UP OBAMA SUPPORTERS BEFORE TOU FIND OUT YOU BACKED A LOST CAUSE

Wonder why he doesn't hold Obama to the same standard? Is OK to be evasive and to blame the Clintons ever time they try to make him run on his record or lack thereof because he represents the largest special interest group in the Democratic party? In any case Kerry continues to act in ways that help the Republican candidate succeed in November.

Love that show of loyalty by Kerry – Bill campaigns for him in 04 and Kerry attacks the Clinton's in 08 – I have a feeling that the swift boat members didn't get all the facts right – Seems they left out the part out about Kerry kneeling on the back with the Vietnamese and shooting at the US troops during the battle.

Where has Al Gore been hiding during all this?

For me and us in Holland it's very exciting to see this political campaigning.

And After all the rambling…Barack Obama was sworn in as President of the US in Jan 2009.

Nice end to a story…don't you think

I was a fan of John Kerry. This articles sometimes have made me so upset enough to move off his email list. I used to respect John Kerry, but now he is throwing out more accusations which is not helping us come together in Unity. Although Obama is a nice man, I'm sure Obama requests that his action has to be taken, but it's not be ready to helpe the American people.

GO HILLARY!!

Hey morons:

Learn to spell. The word is "loser" (not "looser").

The word is "traitor" rather than "trader."

No wonder our government is such a mess. We have so many illiterate voters. Do you know what a dictionary is?

Kerry is the biggest loser in politics, loser can't show Obama how to win, he wants to join with his cabinet because Kerry knows Hillary will not hire any stupid expert in her ministry. Smart voters don't care about Kerry's view, he will lose again to Hillary Clinton. Obama, A drowning man will catch at a straw.

Time to face reality Kerry – Your not relevent anymore, so stop acting like you are

With or without Kerry endorsement Obama is Obama. Shallow. Obama is where he is simply because of luck.

Hillary and Bill are awful. I can't believe the things they do to try to get elected. Its disgusting. I don't know how they even live with themselves. I actually used to like Bill, now I feel used, (like many interns must feel after "supporting" Bill). If SC doesn't go for Obama I'm switching to McCain. At least he has some integrity. Hillary is in this for personal gain, she and her husband abuse their power, and I can't live through another term of lying, cheating, arrogant politicians who will say and do anything for power.

-kerry is obviously going with the mob in responding to bill's political strategy and for his own personal agenda, whatever that is. in the 2004 presidential election, i made a mistake voting for him -now i am voting for EDWARDS in support of the issues he stands for and his concern for the poor and the downtrodden. he is the best example of living the American dream -born poor himself but worked hard to earn a living and become a brilliant lawyer defending people treated unjustly by corporate giants.

Hooray for John Kerry! Someone who's not afraid to call Clinton on his attack dog tactics in the Democratic Party.

Some men see things as they are and say, why? I dream things that never were and say why not? Bobby Kennedy

You know, if Kerry had chosen to SPEAK UP in 2004, we wouldn't be in this mess to begin with! Instead, he chose to run his campaign like a patsy. Who cares WHAT he has to say?

Two Deadbeats calling each other out ……..this is good stuff here ladies and gentlemen………..both of these disgraces are nothing but smoke and mirrors………and the ignorant Dems voters actually believe the Clintons……..one can only hope if Hillary is elected…………heaven help us…………that her tax and spend schemes, will drive this country into a s Depression……..sounds negative huh?…….Clinton is a socialist, her policies are not good for America and the ultimate price to be paid could be an economic meltdown…………bring it on, can't wait!

What an OXYMORON, to use "Truth" and "Clinton" in the same sentence! The goings on in the Democrat Party is no shock to many of us that do not respect Clinton. He may be regarded as the greatest living American politician, but is that really a compliment?

The only person who would have had this picture is
Rezco, proving that he and Obama are still dirty dealin

What kind of people hate half the nation? The Clintons! Hillary coined the phrase "right wing conspiracy" because of her communist leanings. And Bill just loves power – over anything and anyone. Scary thought to imagine the 2 of them in the White House again, chasing the women.

All the losing John Kerry comments here lack any substance. . . and therefore tells me you must lack substance. Just an ugly rant that most humans seem to get easily sucked into. . .

Sad that you can't take people for what they have done, and appreciate the fact that Kerry was the Democratic nominee for a really good reason. . .most people I think just couldn't understand more than 3 words. . .(partly why Bush won) Kerry was too intelligent for the average Joe, and the average Joe would rather have a beer with Bush than try to understand what Kerry was saying, I wonder if that's partly anyone's problem who can't see the patriotism, goodness and integrity that is in the man, John Kerry? Or, are you just being a sore loser?

to pazzenthru: "truth is a relative thing" Ha the Clintons couldn't have said it better themselves – loser

Huge numbers of young voters have turned out to vote and caucus for Barack Obama yet the Clinton campaign still tries to make him out to be the "black candidate".

If Mrs Clinton wins the nomination this campaign strategy will hurt her in the end because these same young Democrats will revert back to being the same apathetic under thirty-five year olds as they were in previous elections.

Record turnouts for the Democratic primaries have little to nothing to do with Clinton or Edwards.

Do the Clintons realize that their tag-team politics is their Achilles heel? It will win the nomination and cost them the election. Americans will not elect this dynamic duo of power hungry, egocentric, unscrupulous, scandal ridden demigods. Just imagine a marriage of Nixon and GWBush in a liberal costume! The Clintons must be stopped before they finish this implosion of the Democratic Party. Do they care about the party? No way! They will party like it's 2999 and dance on the ashes of any Democratic victory that doesn't include them. If they can't win, kill 'em. Remember, they're from Arkansas. They're ready for a shoot out and will leave no one standing. If I had my way they would be exiled to Bagdad until Christmas, 2008.

The dems and others can say criticize all they want, when the final votes come out all of these posers will vote for Clinton because she is a dem.

I just read a column in the LA Times,Jonathan Chait, who said just this. This makes this guy just as phony as his article. He saids that they were liars and so forth, but he will vote for them anyway. What a bunch of crap. So his comments have no meaning whatsoever.

Kerry will support and vote for the Clintons, and so will every other dem. This is just a bunch of nonsense so that the dems can feel morally superior to the Clintons, which is not going very far, and at the same time vote for them.

Complete hypocracy. But then that is not surprising coming from the dems.

"Kerry was beat by an Idiot"? Who voted the IDIOT in…TWICE???!!!!
THe CLINTON DIRTY POLITICS MACHINE has used the REPUPLICAN TACTIC created by ROVE/CHENEY/ BUSH and any American who FALLS for this…
deserves the LIAR they vote into office.
As a Democrat, the CLINTONS make me SICK with their TACTICS!
RUNNING ON CHANGE! What in the past few weeks have the CLINTONS shown change. Attack, lie, attack some more. Then when pressed to defend himself Barack is criticized as a whiner. Just like KERRY. The Republicans knew what they were doing, it was a big plan, and it worked, we feel for it! Don't blame Kerry, blame yourself America for FALLING FOR A TACTIC.
CLINTONS…the CHANGED DEMOCRATS….Bill is the new CARL ROVE!
We deserve another IDIOT……. if we fall for this!

What did President Clinton actually do to help and protect the State of Israel? Now he is attacking Senator Obama for statementes that the Senator never mad. Give me a break.! Signed Joseph benJudah

Talk about "abusing the truth", Nation, please take a moment to view "THE VIDEO THAT HILLARY DOESN'T WANT YOU TO SEE" on the Internet. It is free of media bias since every major news company aired it for months because of how serious it was, including FOX, MSNBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, etc. In short, Hillary just barely escaped real jail time for major election rules violations during her NY State Senate campaign and the Clintons relationship with promoter Peter Paul. What a Mess! Paul was no "saint", (who engages with the Clintons are?), but he raised lots of money for Hillary only to be deceived and almost destroyed by them. One of the Clinton flunkeys wound up taking the "fall" for Hillary just to keep her out of jail. The Clintons in turn act like Peter Paul does not exist. …."Abusing the truth?"….Hmmmmm?

Ben, Columbus, Ohio; you are right. John Kerry could not fight for his own election. I will vote republican before listen to him.

John Kerry gave Clinton a license to lie when he voted against conviction in the impeachment trial about lying under oath in a civil case.

If He votes that its ok to lie in violation of the law, how can Kerry object to campaign lies of which he is also a good practitioner.

Abuse the truth? A P/Correct cannot even use the proper words…
it is called a LIE. A lie by anyother name is still just a lie.
I have seen each of the canidates say whatever is convienent to please the group to whom they speak….Clinton, Romney, Obama, McCain,

…..Longing for a truthful godly leader.

A President does not need to know how to solve all the countries problems, he needs to be a leader to point the direction, protect and uphold the contitution. A president once was someone to whom Honor was worthy. We were proud of them, they represented us… now it is mostly disdain, the one with the most believable lie and biggest wallet is America' s President…in no small part to modern news, thank you news media

If people think Bush is bad wait until we have another four years of the couple who wouldn't know the truth if it hit them you know where.

Enough of the Bushes and Clintons.

Great to see the Demos eating each other.

Why all the media bias for John McCain? Isn't America picking the GOP nominee? I listen to CNN on satellite radio and the coverage is so heavy for McCain, you folks are shamelessly shaping the outcome of these primaries. Keep your bias to yourselves!

ATTN DEMOCRATS:

I challenge you to go to any ticker story that has Hillary Clinton, and find one whose comments don't contain anger, hatred, questions of morality, integrity and overall concern.

This is not just coming from Republicans, but Democrats as well.

My question for you: Why would you want to divide the Democratic party like that, and drive a large wedge into the country. That is what she will do. And the divide you are seeing within the Democrats will not heal.

Why do you want to force this woman on a country that finds 46% of the public questioning her integrity and morality.

If you don't like Obama vote for Edwards, but don't destroy this country!!

Why do all of these women support Hillary when she is married to a man who violated a woman with a cigar under the family's roof? If you will cheat on your wife and daughter, you will surely cheat our country!

The media has made a big deal out of this mess….Bill is campaining & telling LIES for Hillary just like Elizabeth is for John & Mrs. Obama is for Barak so what is the big deal. Bill is the former president & like all of us he has freedom of speech, if you don't like what he has to say tune him out…The media has turned this into a nightmare & if you have watched, CNN has become more & more like FOX they favor Obama just like FOX favors the GOP. If you remember a few months back the Obama's & Edward's were attacking Clinton from all sides, she laid low & when she started attacking back Obama started whining & crying FOWL, he is lame, if he thinks the Clintons are bad just wait until the GOP gets a hold of his behind, I am sure CNN & Jim Clyburn will be their to comfort him. As far as Kerry getting into the mess, typical the mess is almost over & now he speaks, just like when he ran for the Oval office too little too late that is one of the reasons he lost to GW, he waited too late to fire back….I feel certain Obama will take SC but it will be because of the black vote not the white, most white's feel that Obama was the one who played the race card not the Clintons & he has done nothing but whined & cried….VOTE Edwards 08….

Have no fear, Hillary is more than able to run the country without Bill. You surely mean to speak those insecurities about Obama, don't you? As for Kerry, can't believe that those who disliked him so much 4 years ago are praising him for attempting to add to Obama's campaign. Unfortunately, enough people disliked him then and more now, that it actually takes away from Obama's aspirations. All for the sake of getting his face in the news again. I am a democrat and somehow John Kerry got my name on a mailing list of his. Never heard from him before he sought the presidency, now he sends out regular mail about issues before Congress and how we should feel or that we should notify our representatives immediately. NOW people, these are left over aspirations for an office that money could not buy him last time. Hopefully, he will go count his money and stay out of politics for both candidates sakes but more so the democrat party. I don't dislike Obama, I do feel he ran before he was ready. Wish he would have waited this one out and gotten more experience. That is what frightens me about his seeking the office of Presidency. Hope our party can be at peace soon.

I can never forgive John Kerry for his defamatory and untrue testimony before Congress in the 1970s about the conduct of US troops and their leadership in Vietnam.
But I can now commend him for his bravery as the most prominent Obama supporter to speak out against the Clinton slime machine and risk incurring the wrath of Billary. Where are you , Ted Kennedy?

Did I miss something here? People are calling Obama a "cry- baby" becasue he defended himself against the Clintons dirty politics? Wasn't it Hillary who teared up and choked up when she realized she could very well lose to Obama in NH? As a woman, I was so unimpressed with her "tears", and even less impressed with the women who rallied around her just because her feelings were hurt. What had Obama said to trigger her "meltdown"? Interesting…the woman who asked Hillary the question actually voted for Obama. Thank God for "clarity of thought."
I trust the same kind of wisdom and scrutiny will prevail not just in South Carolina, but throught the entire race to the White House.

I used to respect the Clintons. I voted for Bill twice. Now they disgust me.

Kerry is just another person criticizing Clinton for "attacking" Obama, without responding to the criticism of Obama. They say that accusing someone of "attacking" you works with voters, but we'll see. At some point, I think a person has to stand up and defend his record and positions on the merits.

My words to Bill Clinton, Give truth a chance, give the genuine man of our generation a chance, give change we can trust a change ??????? So where you give a change and you proved yourself then!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Unless you forgot something in the whitehouse that you want your wife to help you collect, otherwise, give truth a chance and support your wife with the dignity of an elderly state man.

Sorry to say that Obama really look like somone………….
BUt he doesn't look like a president of USA at all.
Be real, I'm not support him to be a unitedstates president due to his talk and no solution. Any body can say CHANGE, CHANGE, CHANGE. but how can he changes? No such as good plan!!!!!
Hillary will get my vote for her Health care, Economies and Security Plan

What does abusing the truth mean? Why not say lie? Does it mean stretching the truth, what? Does it mean hurting the truth. If you abuse your spouse, you beat them up. So does that mean it is true, just beat up? Splain it to me, Lucy

Kerry should shut up. There is enough fuel on the fire without him adding to it.

I don't recall ANY democrats raising issues with Bill's "abuse of truth" when that abuse was directed toward republicans.

Welcome to reality democrats – this is Bill Clinton, it's not anything new.

Okay, so as a person who will be voting Republican…I'd just like to say that I want the candidate from the Democratic party to be a good person for the job as well and Hillary seems to be driving most of y'all away. Sure, that's good for John McCain followers, but c'mon, let's get a REAL showdown going this year. I want to see two people who will run a clean campaign and focus on the issues and Hillary Clinton is clearly worried about herself while Barack Obama spends his time pulling out the race card and letting his crazy supporters like John Kerry run around and hurt his campaign…hmm…I think Democrats should take a second look at John Edwards.

The Clinton's represent "All the King's Men" politics. America simply can't afford this kind of junk anymore. We are quickly running out chances to get it right. A Hillary nomination will mean a Republican election, no doubt about it.

Four years of Bush, Eight years of Clinton, Eight more years of Bush does anyone really want another four more years or more with the Clintons. Time for a REAL CHANGE.

My friend's daughter has applied for internship at the White House.
If Hillary is the nominee, she will withdraw her daughter's application.

How about you guys hmm? Trust HillyBilly enough to have them around any of your female family members?

Then what is the basis of your support?

Gosh! Kerry again! why can he not just sit in his sofa, and watch soccer.
Ungrateful manner i would say. i would advise him that he should have played neutral instead. because he saw that obama has a potential to win at that time, his vested interest came out. it was very clear to american people.
hillary clinton was right, when he lost to bush, she said because they made some mistakes out there, in the campaign. and now kerry is making mistake again for enforsing obama.
common kerry be more smart next time.

GO AWAY KERRY YOU LOSER – you lost to BUSH !!!
…and we're supposed to take you seriously?

Zookyu: Concur.

I saw that one too and wondered exactly what what Bill did besides PADER to (so-called African-Americans). He certainly didn't teach them to drop the African crap and be 100% AMERICANS.

The other one I liked was… the Darth guy who is tired of Bill's "Republican Style Attacks". OMG, It is just amazing how people do not see themselves as others see them. Where's he been the past 8 years?

Signed: 100% American with European ancestors who fought against the Negro Salve Traders.

Ahhhh. A Democrat finally acknowledging that Bill Clinton is a liar. That's wonderful news. I hope that more Democrats come out against the liar.

zookyu January 26, 2008 1:20 am ET

"As an African American, what has John Kerry ever did for us? He needs to stay out of this and just SHUT UP! At least the Clinton's have actually done something for African Americans!!! He couldn't even fight in the last election! Just be quiet and go make some Heinz."
And you need someone to DO something for you?? F' n loser……….

Why don't you make a real truthful list of what the Clinton's have done for you, it'll be shorter than the list of truthful people in the US Congress.

"As an African American, what has John Kerry ever did for us? He needs to stay out of this and just SHUT UP! At least the Clinton's have actually done something for African Americans!!! He couldn't even fight in the last election! Just be quiet and go make some Heinz."

As a black American I think the same could be asked of the Clintons. My success has more to do with my personal choices (i.e. education, marketable skills, money management) than who occupies the White House. I do not look for much of anything from the GODvernment, in fact I just want to be left alone to succeed or fail on my own. Only children worry about what is in some other guy's wallet. That is why I left the democrat party and became an independent. For all your complaints about Kerry, I'd bet money you voted for him just the same.

If John Kerry is the tired past, that would put the Clinton's in hibernation! The Clinton's have done about as much for blacks as David Duke!

McCain new blood?

Kathy from Austin: that's great!

Kerry's a strange bird. He seems to have a knack for making people not like him.

I suspect both Edwards and Clinton breathed a sign of relief when the "nod" went to Obama.

America is just ending one family dynasty of Presidents. Does it really want to start another one? Are we moving from elections to coronations?

I grew up in Arkansas with Bill Clinton as governor the whole time..this is the way they are…they have their own mafia…..it's all able power….their ego's are driven by
absolute power and nothing else…

John Kerry THINKS a lot. But he can't be absolutely sure, can he?

Let me tell you all something very clearly. I post on bloggs on the Washington Post, USA today, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, AP, and the New York Times.

CNN is the ONLY website to selectively crop which posts go up. The others have filters for swearing and whatnot, but dont go around picking ahd choosing which person is allowed to post or not.

This is an outright fact. Dont believe me? Go to those sites , post whatever you like, and see for yourself.

CNN is specifically choosing which posts it wil allow, and as we can see, it insists on 95% ANTI Clinton remarks.

I think the Clinton's are playig Washington politics. Obama's idea of change created media attention. How to defeat that momentum? Get him in the fray of old politics and then claim he is the same. Levels the playing field on who is the candidate for change if the Obama campaign fall for the bait, which they did.

Bill's appearance on the campaign trail was minimal until the Iowa results. So, as even CNN pundits predicted, the Clintons would come out fighting as they see the presidency as their destiny or given right. Bill draws them into a fight and Hillary gets to recocile as if she is above the fray (after throwing in her jabs). It is Rove "ian", in its simplicity. Calculated and effective.

Now Bill is saying that Hillary and John Mcain are friends. That is predictable old school politics. He is basically saying if voters are tired of the bitterness of the South Carolina debates then Hillary will be amiable with the Republican leading candidate. Just bait I say.

Reality check:

What made The United States a laughing stock was the national obsession with insignificant nonsense about Clinton's infidelity. Remember the glee with which salacious details were examined during the hearings? Gosh that was stupid, especially when you look at where George W. has brought us since.

I only wish people would be one iota as outraged about the lies told by Bush/Cheney about WMD, implied connections between Al Qaeda and Saddam Hussein, and how Iraq would be a piece of cake. Maybe fewer people would have lost their lives and limbs if Bush hadn't been such a great guy and had gotten rid of Rumsfeld sooner.

Obama — lots of self confidence, not really enough experience but a really likable guy, people believe in him, he promises to clean up and change the way things are done in Washington, be a leader and a uniter. Sound familiar? Yeah, that's exactly the same profile as George W. Bush.

Talk about abusing truth, huh? Kerry's probably looking for some kind of cabinet post since his Senate seat is up in 2008 and he figures Obama is his best option.

Rolly,

Kerry is INGRATE indeed. He asked Bill and Hillary to campaign for him in 2004. He did not endorse his former runningmate.

I can't believe i've voted for that ingrate and coward in 2004!

How do you "abuse the truth"? Does that mean blatantly exploiting the truth for one's own benefit? You either tell the truth or you tell a lie. It's as simple as that. At least Bill, Hillary, and Obama aren't weak sisters like Kerry, and it looks like you Dems are finally going to put up someone strong with either Hillary or Obama.

Good that Kerry was'nt elected in 2004. He would have gone against the nation (all people of America who vote for him) like he is going against the people who helped his campaign (The Clintons) in 2004.

I had respect for Kerry but after he started supporting Obama, I am thinking twice.

Obama is good but I dont think he is President materiall. This is not a time for America to look for a change specially with the state in which George W Bush is leaving the Presidncy and the country. Had it been in 2000, I would say "Get on Obama. Lets get a change"

Right now what AMERCIA needs is consolidation and a return to be the superpower it is. To do that the Clinton's are the best bet because they have already proven a lot in the past during the 8 years when Bill was president.

"The known devil is better than the unknown devil especially in bad times."

John Kerry should shut up. We Democrats supported him, and he screwed up and lost to an idiot who should never have occupied the White House, and who should have been easily defeated. He has no one to complain about other than himself and his own shortcomings.

Advice to Obama; Don't stand next to him when he launches grenades!

Also, just because a person does not win a presidential election, does not disqualify the person of being able to speak out about what is correct or incorrect in his view. It sounds like there are a lot of people still lashing out about 2004 election, we need to let it go…just let it go, and look forward. That is the problem with many Democrats, it is time to wake up to 2008 and look forward. You are not going to be able to go back to 1992/1996 even if you vote for his wife. Crying about 2000 and 2004 elections is not going to help either. I personally plan on looking forward, and going with the candidate that does not have a zillion ties to the old politics of the 90's, yet has our main and best interests at heart. If for once Democrats could solidify with one candidate and stop looking backwards, I believe many ideas and expectations could be achieved. The problem is few are willing to look forward and fight to make a real difference.

If Hillary can't control what Bill is saying and doing on the campaign trail, how will she control him in the white house while she is supposed to be making so many decisions about our country? How will she handle the bimbo control issues and his tirades then?

They have split the party down the middle, forget the republicans, they have made war on democrats. No one will work with her if elected. Bill has ruined his legacy with his antics. Very undignified. If I want drama, I'll turn on a soap opera, not National news thank you.

I'll vote republican first before I vote for them.

Thanks Kerry! You have said what most of us here in California are thinking. Bill Clinton lied when he was running for the White House, while he was in the White House and now while he's trying to get back into the White House. The man and his wife (right wing conspiracy," "Rose law firm reapearing documents," stolen furniture from the White House, "I'm not just standing by my man") are JUST PLAIN LIARS!! If anybody tries to tell me to believe these people again, I will think they are insane. Same old people doing the same old things and expecting a different result = clinical insanity. I'm voting Obama.

Zookyu,
When you say 'as an African American', what has John Kerry done for you. It exposes that you do not want to improve your life, It shows that you do not understand that with John Kerry (a White) endorsing and supporting Obama that he is accepting that you an African American can be free to be anything in America even the President while you may have spent all your life voting for the Clintons (12 years in Arkansas and 8 at the White House) who do not accept that you being an African American can be free to be anything in the United States.
Think zookyu. Obama is a scholar, Obama is brilliant, Obama is an examplary African American, if the Clintons say he is not fit to rule America then you can imagine what think of you. Is it ok for you to keep voting for who despises you.
The Bible stresses the equality of man before God which the Clintons do not practice. John Kerry should be praised. Obama will bring unity and change to the United States. Vote for him.

I was too young to vote for Clinton in 1992. Later, however, I voted for Bill Clinton in 1996 and suffered with many when he was caught in a terrible lie. I observed both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, listening intently and watching all of their stands in Iowa, New Hampshire, (missed Nevada), and into South Carolina. By the time, Bill went nuts on stage talking about Obama's stand against the war was changed in 2003/2004 as a complete fairytale. Started shaking my trust deeply with Bill Clinton. His rants made me wonder if he accidentally misstated Obama's record out of emotion. I kept it in the back of my mind, and continued thinking Clinton or Obama, no main preference. South Carolina, clinched it, I am completely certain that Bill Clinton is not only purposefully lying about Obama. He also demonstrated to me that he does not have faith in his own wife, Hillary. She can't even hold her own against a candidate on her own platform. If ignorance prevails and Clinton take over Obama for the Democratic Nomination. I am registered as a Democrat, yet I will show allegiance to the front runner of the Republican National Party, and will vote Republican. Hillary was supposed to demonstrate that she was a strong female candidate, she has shown me that she can't even fight her own campaign battles without Bill getting involved. I don't want a weak President in the White House. She has proven that she can't do anything without Bill, she is not what this country needs. Obama is my preference, if he does not get nominated, Then McCain or Romney all of the way!!

No matter who is elected, they arent going to beable to straighten the mess this country is in. I am voting for an American Hero with experience, John McCain knows foreign policy, what is going on in the world and he is a Leader and the military respects him! Hes got my vote. Obama needs another 20 years to grow and experience all he says is alot of sugar coated words, he is delusionall and he tells the public what they want to hear he is NOT ready.
As far as Bill Clinton goes, here we go again his big mouth is going to get Hillary no where he is a sham to the White House and did not respect the office, Bill just wants to live in the White House again its all about power, hes an embarrasment to this country and most of the world is laughing at the USA.

Bill, what a joke! He used to be great, Now, I am disgusted by the sight of him. You will sacrifice his legacy, and the American people just so that he and Hillary can monopolize the White House. Bill you are a lying piece of work. Shame to all Americans that vote for Billary.
Good job Kerry, its about time someone-else stood up to this hypocrite.
Bill and Hill wont get my vote. I'd rather vote (gulp) Republican just so that they dont get the White House. Greed, the root of evil!

Thank you John kerry, thank you for standing up for the truth. I have always respected you and even more now. Thank you also for your service to this country. You and Barack would make a great team, a team of honesty and integrity that would envoke the principles held by our founding fathers.

I happen to be middle aged, female, and a very disallusioned republican who is going to change parties, and going to vote for

OBAMA '08

If Hillary is the Democratic nominee, she's definitely going to lose. Too many people dislike her, even those in her own party (this message board is proof enough!). She may have experience, but her faulty character cancels that out. If the Dems really want to win this election, they'd be wise to nominate someone other than the Bill & Hill squad. Do we really want to continue the Clinton dynasty? Let's finally get some new blood in the White House and get out of this tired cycle of politics as usual.

Pazzinthru said: "Truth is a relative thing , and everyone has a right to his or her own version of it" …spoken like a true Clintonite

Why do my comments always wait for the moderator.
The DNC should have sanctioned Bill Clinton since for confirming that his wife is not capable of running for President by his unstatesmanly conducts.

Hey John Kerry…T. Boone Pickins still has the $1,000,000 for you if you can prove with your military records that the swift boat guys are lying…

OBAMA BEST CHOICE FOR DEMOCRATS

San Jose Mercury News Editorial

01/25/2008

America longs for a change of style, a change of policy and a change of heart. Sen. Barack Obama is the Democratic candidate with the best chance to unify the country and put it back on track. He is the candidate who can best restore the world's faith in America and America's faith in itself.

We recommend Obama as the Democratic nominee, believing that his political approach could eventually make as much history as being the first African American president. …

What tips the scales in Obama's favor is the freshness of his approach and the lack of political baggage he would bring to the White House. … Clinton's perceived negatives will cloud the campaign, and some positions she has taken over the years appear to have been based on political expediency more than core values. With that history, it will be harder for her to be successful.

Obama would dramatically change the nation's approach to foreign policy and domestic issues. While the substance might not differ substantially from Clinton's in many areas, he would have more cross-over appeal to independents and Republicans, whose support will be needed to bring about significant change.

Obama is the only candidate who opposed the Iraq war from the outset. His ethnic background and his upbringing give him a unique world view. He has the best chance to change how the world looks at the United States and restore the respect it has squandered during the past eight years. …

He also brings a solid approach to the issues of climate change, education, election reform and stem cell research. …

The George W. Bush-era has been the most divisive period in American history since the 1960s. Barack Obama represents the voice of a new generation. He resonates much as John F. Kennedy did with his message of hope and challenge. He is the best choice to unify and inspire America.

Race has always been an issue in this country. How can one explain to their child that no matter what you achieve it will never become enough to win a losing battle in America. Obama went to Harvard and did tremendously well in his pursuit to the White House yet with his experiences is still isn't enough. They said he wasn't black enough. Yet he's the Black candidate now who can only attract black voters but not enough black women! Yet he's the son of a white woman and an african black man which his black part is now mainly a negative. What in the workd kind of people exist in this countey. Stupid close minds people who in this case come in all colors shapes and forms. I as a 22 year old educated black male feel sadden that my country is as third world as they come. My mother is 50 and I guess she will never live to see the day a good man such as Obama will get elected to run and win the office of the President of the U.S.. But this country can elect a Bill Clinton or a George Bush etc.
Someone asked what has Bill done t black people. He disrespected his position as president as well as the American voters by his behavior and his inaction or poor choices such as NAFATA, Welfare reform approving a republican agenda. It's okay because he's Bill. It's sad.

Alright,!!! Kerry teaching Obama how NOT to win!! Go Kerry Go…

It is obvious who the Republicans are PARANOID about so much they have begun to attack her even before she wins the DEM nomination!!

Obama is a "dreamer" …..right now we need a "doer"

Hillary 2008

I tend to believe Senator Kerry and Senator Obama.

Doesn't anybody remember President Clinton being stripped of his law license because of "stretching the truth?" A court found him unfit to practice law because of his lack of ethics. That says something.

I love watching the Dems deal with the flood of lies that proceed from the Clintons, especially Bill. Republicans have been dealing with his lies for going on 15 + years now, but of course because it was politically expedient, the Democrats defended him and his lies and even learned the art of the lie from him. He is truly the master, but what is so ironic here is that Kerry is a natural liar too. Listening to him complain about Clinton's lies is almost more than I can take.

Kerry was not my choice in 2004 but anyone can smell a rat and the Clinton's stink!

John Kerry is prehaps one of most clueless men in america. I mean some one that is shocked shocked by bill clinton lying.

Cathy: I agree with you. CNN will not post my comments, because I speak my mind, the way I see it. For example, during the debate, it was obviously Obama who swiped at Hillary first, saying that Hillary served in the Board of Directors of Walmart (of course this to imply a lot of things), and when Hillary fought back, saying Obama was acting for the slumlord – CNN went on a field-day saying that Hillary should let it go – WHY SO CNN? I am sure if she let it go, you will say she is weak, but when she fought back, you call her somehthing else.

GO HILLARY GO

Greetings!
I'm an undecided voter who feels like she is somewhere in the twilight zone. I just don't see how a junior Senator is still in the race to become our president. Have we gone mad? If he were a non-African-American, he would have been driven out of the race quite quickly simply due to a lack of experience. The only thing that sets Obama apart is that he is African-American. By the way, has the political arena including media forgotten about Hispanics, Asians, and Natives. That in itself is a pretty narrow vision of our world. Getting back to Obama, he seems to be getting by on hope. He's giving everyone hope of a better future. Well as we all know from the Bush era, it's one thing to speak of hope, and it's another to deliver it. My point being that hope is nice, but one needs the tools and experience to make good on that hope. Universal health care isn't going to happen just through hope. Come on everyone, it's our future at stake. So think long and hard about his lack of experience, and be realistic about what he really brings to the table. Does he know the issues and how they will be addressed or is he going to rely on hope to get it done. I'd like him to pay his dues for a few years, get some experience and come back. As an educator, I know the value of experience, for I'm a better teacher now than I was 10 years ago. Through trial and error, practice, more knowledge, I've improved. It's been a learning curve, but do you want our next president to go through a learning curve with our futures. There is far more on the line, so let's put the focus on the issues and experience as opposed to superficial things like race and gender. Have a marvelous 2008.

Kerry is an ingrate. You go Hillary!! Don't sweat it. Kerry's endorsement is a losing waste for Obama.

Mama Teta

Most Democratic voters are really very "uninformed" and ignorant.

Kerry wants to remind you fools about what the Republicans did to him (and the democratic votes) despite his vast EXPERIENCE and service to this nation.

Gore, if some of you fools have forgotten, also lost to the Republican machine because of the SINS of the Clintons. Now, you are putting another Clinton out there with the dreams for "wealth"– Good luck!

When will the average Democratic voters ever learn from their past mistakes? I guess their leaders such as Hillary are as blind to the realities of life as their followers!!!!

God Save Us All!!!

To John: Kerry: In life there is such a thing called "gratitude". – we call such a person running dogs (in Western culture, "scoundrel"). John you are a scoundrel.

John Kerry is just better because he lost the last election and he thinks that the Clintons did not do much for him so for him its pay back time. but the tired old man should go and sit down because he is just a big LOOSER

As a Republican, I'm no big fan of John Kerry, but it sure seems to me that he's calling it like he sees it. The last two weeks have shown us the real Hillary and Bill show. Sure they're for change…change back to way they've behaved in the past. Even National Public Radio's commentators from both sides of the aisle were highly critical of Bill's half-truths and outright lies, and stated they deliberately thought the Clinton's had injected the race card into the primary election. Wake up you Democrats! If you nominate these (and I purposely refer to both Clintons) political hacks, the Republicans are going to have field day slicing and dicing them in the run-up to the general election. From where I sit, at least Obama has a chance to bring a new vision to governing America. C'mon Democrats, give this Republican someone (Obama) from your party that I can at least consider voting for.

P.S. Some folks keep repeating the Clinton line that Obama compared himself to Ronald Reagan. Ridiculous! Go to factcheck.org to see Obama's entire quote so you at least know what you're talking about.

jbhilt: people have turned on Bill, but he turned on us. By using lies, by insulting people, by using swift-boating and disenfranchisement, Bill and Hillary turned on the decency of the American people. The deserve to have us turn on them.

What, Clinton's lie to the public? Well it worked with the grand jury. And now they've got a health plan for you! Expand medicaid, cover everyone on insurance, create a new public insurance plan and limit what insurance companies charge. Only thing missing is full taxpayer support for illegal aliens, socialized medical practice and beachfront property in Arizona!

What is all this fuss about race the man OBAMA is not 100% black he is
mixed Honestly the media has paid a big share into the whole mess OBAMA look
like a great choice for president at the beginner but now different history
The clintons are well known as great politician for many and a horrobles for others this is AMERICA we should learn that whom become the next president
will have a lot to overcome Obama claims someone out there is misreprenten his record MR OBAMA What record? if you are the new face for changed your
record still to come . I' m sorry that you has to learned with them how to become a great politician you have a long way to go RACE is not the issue A wounded
country is a reality

I think Hillary is intelligent and dedicated to improving the lives of children and women. I was excited about her running for president, and remember the successes of the Clinton years fondly. I remember Bill's speeches capturing just how I felt. I defended them through it all.

I was excited about Hillary winning. But, after watching the campaign daily since October, I no longer support her. It was like loosing a dream, much as we can see in the NYTimes endorsement, that argues with itself about the virtues we want to see in Hillary, but is beginning to recognize the reality of who she is.

I am sad that the first viable woman we have as a candidate has to rely on her husband to get her there. But, looking back, that is always who Hillary has been.

She started out in Washington on her own on the staff to impeach Nixon. Due ethical problems, she never received a recommendation, and having failed her bar exam, she had no future in DC. So, she shuttled off to Arkansas to be with Bill.

She deserves some credit for the work she did as the wife of a governor and president. She was able to step up to the task and work on problems for women and children. But, the positions she achieved where not due to her credit, but because of her status as Bill's wife. Even her partnership in the Rose law firm was granted because of the business she brought in, not because of the hours she billed or cases she won.

Her Senate seat was won based on name recognition, and her elections, by fluke, had no serious challengers, Giulliani dropped out of the first one, and her opponent was underfunded in the second. (It should be asked, why did the Republicans not put up a good candidate against Hillary?)

Her work in the Senate, under review, has not produced any legislation. Perhaps thats why she has to run on the White House years.

Now, as a presidential candidate, she once again turns to Bill to campaign for her.

It's kind of like the story of Cinderella, who reaches her kingdom because of her prince. It's sad that the model of our first serious woman candidate fulfills all the traditional stereotypes.

Now, with the campaign she is running, if she wins, it will not be something that we will celebrate. From the lies, the disenfranchisement, the swift-boating, the division, if she wins, if we reward her for this behavior, it will be a very sad day for many Americans.

Kerry takes aim at Bill Clinton for over stepping the "boundaries" of a former president. Where was the outrage at Jimmy Carter for the past eight years when he was ranting that President Bush was the worst president in history? Didn't Carter leave honorable American soldiers dead in the desert? Where was Kerry when Carter should have been abiding by the unwritten rule that a former president keep his mouth shut.

I have decided for the first time to vote for a Republican in the General Election. I used to like Bill Clinton, but his disgraceful behavior these past weeks is unbecoming of a former president. It is shameful. He will do and say anything for his wife to win. I am/was a democrat and black, but I am sick of Bill and will vote for the republicans this year!

Dear Everyone,
If Hillary gets the nomination, I am taking my vote elsewhere! Let's start to count, Who's coming with me (1) 2,

About time people from the Democratic party starts calling this horrible sabotage of the election, …….. someone please control the Clintons.
this is a pure example of who they truly are, their sense of entitlement, their belittling of AA ,they are good at creating divisive lines, and over all they do not practice what they preach but expect everyone else to do so…

I hope CNN focuses on some of the people who are running and also change some of their tittles.
Please please, dont put so much on bill, he is the past.

It's really amazing to see how gaulible most black America is, even in this century.
There is a very good chance to see a black man as President of this great country, but some blacks feel they owe allegiance to Bill Clinton. The Clintons, in their quest for power are looking to build a dynasty. After Hillary the next Clinton the blacks will owe allegiance to would be their daughter. Black America, wake up and lift up your own son. He can't do any worse. Look who's President today.

Repent, the time is near.

For some reason i think this is going to come out to a fight to the finish.

My, my, what in the world is going on? The democrats are fighting with the republicans, the democrats are fighting with themselves, the whites are going to vote against Obama because he's black, the blacks are voting against the whites, the mexicans and blacks are mixing it up, can't vote for anyone who is religious, wah wah, you're picking on me cuz I'm a woman, Oprah is catching it cuz she chose color over gender, the first "black president" is dissing the blacks now, on and on ad nauseum. What did you expect folks? Get used to it and prepare for it to get worse!!!

THEY'RE BAAAAACK!!!!! The twofers, the lying, cheating, stealing. power hungry, socialist traitors!!!

(Doesn"t ANYONE remember how good it was before there was the CLINTON'S)

The opinion of Kerry do not count for me, since the day He do not defend his commentary to students about of study in order of not to need to go to the army. MR. KERRY, THAT WAS ABSOLUTELY TRUE.

"As an African American, what has John Kerry ever did for us? He needs to stay out of this and just SHUT UP! At least the Clinton's have actually done something for African Americans!!! He couldn't even fight in the last election! Just be quiet and go make some Heinz."
And you need someone to DO something for you?? F' n loser……….

kerry uses lines right out of Obama playbook too bad he didn't come up with something when he was sinking in the swiftboat ads.
getting a recomendation from a wet mop would be better than kerry
Obama is a pack of lies

Bravo Kerry! First for telling the Vietnam war-era congress the truth about the war crimes, emotional costs, and other horrors of that war. Though it is disappointing that he hasn't been a more vocal opponent of the current war, he certainly is telling it like it is on this issue!

If only hillary and billary cared half as much as Mr. Obama…..I'll vote republican before I vote for those losers.

Um….Let me get this streight, Kerry is calling another politician a liar.
Since when is that news?

I'm an african american and I am a democrat. I am also tired of the "Clintons did sooooo much for african americans. Like what? The record number of african americans incarserated during the clinton years or maybe it was the record amount of drugs to hit the streets of the african american community during the clinton years. Or hey, what about nafta. You know all our jobs going over seas and mexicans pouring across our border taking the blue collar jobs that used to pay well but the mexicans are willing to do for slave wages. You know the wages that americans of all races fought for so that we would be getting a fair wage. The clintons are in the back pocket of big business and hillary will owe and with bill in tow he will owe also. There will be a double line outside the white house waiting for political favors and with all the pay back and butt kissing going on there will be no time for governing. For those who keep bringing up Rezko you need to look at hilliariouses legal dealings of the past and you just might vomit. Oh, thats right she won't let her files be released. Also, before you condemn the Rezko situation you should educate yourself and read up on it. Don't make a comment on something just because you heard something, check it out yourself. You might be suprised what you find. The clintons time is done and it is time to move forward not backward. Obama can unite this country that is in a idealogical civil war. The clintons will bring the war to full scale.

GO OBAMA 08

Kerry endorsed Obama because Hillary really didn't campaign for him enough to get the win. She didn't want him to win. She campaigned just barely enough to "appear" like she was trying to help. She's been preparing for this Presidential bid since Bush was inaugurated.

Kerry didn't endorse Edwards because he learned that Edwards is a constantly conniving man, and told Kerry that he wouldn't run if Kerry's last bid failed. (presumably so Kerry could try again) Edwards broke that promise.

Consequently, Kerry approached McCain about the VP offer and all that entails.

Neither one of these washed up bag of wind could hold DR RON Paul's JOCKSTRAP

RON PAUL defecates COMMON SENSE!!!!!!!!

It's just politics. Kerry is betting on Obama to win. If Kerry's right and Obama does win he sittin' in tall cotton, if Clinton wins he's persona non grata. It's a risky move this early in the game.

Kerry looks and talks like a used car salesman.

Obama supporters are in fairy land! Stay there and we'll have Romney or Huckabee in the White House next year since Obama has no bones about destroying the Democratic party based on a happy cheerleading squad! That's the problem with Democrats – they are a bunch of fairy tale dreamers without wanting to put the hard and difficult work into it. Now all you Obama supporters listen carefully, "Click your heels and I promise you it will all go away, We will find the great land of Oz and live happily ever after with our happy thoughts."

THEY REALLY NEED TO GET A GRIP ON REALITY!

I am an impartial observer from India. I believe that if Bill Clinton was the Black Man's President. Then I would believe that Barack Obama should be and must be a White Man's President. He is a guy who honestly wants to speak the truth. He has made it a point by mentioning his teenage drug use in his book. Truth is the ultimate celestial arm and anyone who sides the truth wins. The presidential campaign has a Black Man who has sided the truth for once and doesn't fear standing up against lies. He is a deserving candidate. He is a candidate that believes in himself and the God Almighty. He will definetely win and my prayers are with him.

Well, lets remember that Clinton's anger at reporters is rare, because most reporters don't want to be blacklisted by the network producers and their rolodexes.

Takes a lot of guts to criticize the press…because they will UNLIST you in a heart beat from their rollodexes like they did others…including a couple vice presidents who foolishly took on the fourth estate!

Politicians who take on the press are destroyed in the press. We've seen more than a couple vice presidents who have been denegrated to nothingness for criticizing the press!

Don't you notice how careful cable talking heads are of NOT criticizing their hosts for their stupid questions or their one-sided theatrics? No cable news guest wants to be blacklisted for making a network anchor look bad! Fastest tactic in the world to get yourself removed frm the public access. Never pis off a network if you want to be invited back on their air!

News consumers should always realize that, and realize that this fear will keep many interviewees from crossing the points of the hosts, and tellling what they REALLY think. Remember, cable news is actually about reinforcing viewers' CONVENTIONAL WISDOM! No network will get ratings by suggesting something new to their viewers because viewers stick around to have their viewpoints REINFORCED, not CHALLENGED!

It's very obvious what Bill and Hillary Clinton are doing: Bill is distracting Obama to the point where Obama can't give his full attention to debating Hillary because he has to answer to Bill's never ending lies. Bill is back to his dirty, sneaky tricks that he used to get elected President.. When he was confronted with all the lies and campaign promises he used to get elected, he explained that lies and campaign promises were just part of the getting elected process.

Hillary has a campaign commercial that is running in Arizona in which she says she has 35 years experience…. in what?

Kerry must be very jealous on Clinton's success. I'd like he stays at home not comes out to talk about other people. Why did he lost in 2004? Because he does not know to respect all of American people not some who is not strong enought to become the present, like Obama.

Ginny, there is nothing wrong with voting for a Republican if you feel that the Republican nominee has more character and integrity than the nominee chosen by your own party. It's not just about the party anymore, it's about the COUNTRY. All this partisanship is what got us in this mess in the first place.

I'm with you Dez (4). I was once a Clinton supporter but the tag-team campaigning and dirty tricks have shown me their true colors…they are just as bad as the worst of the Republicans. They only care about themselves and will step on anyone to get back to the White House. How disgusting!

kathy. as profound as your statement was,,, it is viewable

I used to love President Clinton. Hilary was my candidate of choice. They now DISGUST me. Now I realize the Clintons are an illusion. They have no integrity and lack ethics.

My vote is for Obama! Clintons you lost my vote.

Obama is inevitability.

wilferd,, as your bible supposedly was teaching you,, i think you missed the point of FORGIVING,, never have a heart of hate,, wow,,glad i do not follow religion based on the hate of mankind,, believe , and it sometimes comes true…

I knew we were becoming a third world country, but I didn't know it was
Argentina>Evita Peron!!!!!! wife of a general became their darling.
Hillary her only qualification is she married a hand-picked President, by
the Fellow Travelers of the media.

What is the difference between "abusing the truth" and "lying?"

^that not gonna be a blow – Obama aint gonna win.

That said, Kerry was such a roll-over pansy in 2004 that the Worst President ever was reelected. With all that ammunition, Kerry shot himself in the foot. Several times.

About John Kerry: Skull and Bones. Took his own camera to Vietnam so he could film himself, think about that. Threw away his medals in protest, only to wear them decades later saying the medals he filmed himself throwing weren't really his. Marries for money. When accused of being a self-absorbed money-grubbing egotist, he went wind surfing on Martha's Vineyard while Lovey Howell looked on from a canopied yacht.

Yeah, he's a political genius that John Kerry. By the way, nice way to knife your old running mate in the back, John Kerry.

Thanks John for standing up to that pervert, Bill Clinton. if not for his pervertic behavour in office Gore would be President, AND THERE WOULD BE NO IRAQ WAR. Shame on u Bill, you are partly responsible for the IRAQ WAR. NO TO DINESTY, NO TO THE CLINTON DINESTY, YES FOR CHANGE.

Kerry has a lot of nerve saying anything bad about the Clinton's.
Remember Kerry dragging poor Bill out campaigning for him in the last election that Kerry blew. Bill hardly got home from his open heart surgery when Kerry was desperate for help.
Kerry ought to just stay inconsequential as he was in the last election. Lets hear it again" I actually voted against it before I voted for it".

derek wonders if there is a dem who would vote republican rather than vote for obama? I know several. He is plastic. He sounds more like a preacher than Huckabee. I don't need to be motivated or 'set afire' by rhetoric. I can motivate myself. I need someone who can get the job done and so far he has not shown that he can. Sorry, he is a manufactured face and voice. Listening to him is like being on a high carb diet — very tasty at first but then you get that empty feeling and need some protein.

as for kerry — could it be he is jealous that Hillary slugs it out for herself when she needs to? surely kerry knows by now he lost the election for us because he was to wimpy to go after the swift boaters.

Hillary Clinton 2008

Why is my comment waiting for a "moderator?" It was very simple really. A grammar lesson for those who confuse "looser" with "loser."

Loser = John Kerry

Looser = Bill Clinton

An English language lesson! What is the problem, CNN???

why would you have seen sen. clinton in new orleans when katrina made landfall????And bob ryan, yes i have seen sen. clinton meeting with heads of state, after all , she was the first lady during the almost entire decade of the 90's . and also as a senator of new york . i am sure she has meet a few leading leaders of this world,, SO WHY WOULD YOU BE SURPRISED

Why is CNN giving Bill so much coverage? Is Bill running for president too?

Has anyone seen an article about Ron Paul? Does CNN control who we vote for?

The world has had lots of great men, and every generation has their own great men that suit and fit the moment of that. Bill, please give us chance to taste and enjoy another great man of our time. Leave Obama alone and your fanaticness about your wife winning at all cost may tanish your image forever. Imagin when Obama wins both Clintons. That gonna be a blow and he is going to win them.

Was it abusive for Clinton to question why Obama was comparing himself to Reagan? Was it abusive for Clinton to examine Obama's claim to an American black identity, when his only black relatives are foreigners who have nothing to do with black America's main religion, culture, or historic experience?

And why do we care what this guy has to say? He obviously doesnt know how to win a presidential election.

HILLARY, YES, SHE IS A WOMEN'S PRESIDENT OF UNITEDSTATES. 1000% SURE WILL WIN.

Mr Kerry is the tired past. Who cares what he does? Why read this dribble?

please , blacks (most) do not think of bill clinton as "the first black president".. that insanity began with tom joyner, host of the tom joyner morning show

Hi, Thinker in CA:
I'm a pharmacist and I will be voting for Hillary. It's just another way of keeping people from voting for Hillary since no one wants to be identified w/ the uneducated.

Clinton – McCain '08

How quickly everyone turns against Bill. He did an amazing job as president and you can expect the same for Hiillary. We need another Clinton in the White House!

It is nice to say that we actually have good choices in this election. I like Hillary, but Obama would do a fine job as well. I even think McCain would be a great choice. It's about time that we had so many strong candidates. It a shame that there is so much negativity directed at the candidates that you don't support.

you liberals need to learn the spelling of "loser"

Kerry in an ingrate. Let Kerry the loser infect the Obama campaign. Hillary will win the election in November.

You guys just don't realize why Kerry never stood up to the swift boat attacks? Why he never once denied the actual allegations from those ads????

BECAUSE THEY WERE TRUE!!!!! Geez, figure it out. Do some of your own research, don't just believe what CNN tells you.

Bill Clinton former President counterfeit road scholar and accomplished pathological liar is quite full of himself, arrogant and vain. Apparently this idiot
is so stupid he has casually convinced himself that we are all of inferior intelligence so mentally handicapped that we believe him! His integrity is so conspicuously absent the truth does not know him and he has never knew
the truth! Since I have discovered who he really is I have forgotten the legacy
of respect and love I once had for him and his tenure in office.

This guy endured no injustice being the first President to be impeached since
Andrew Johnson. Shame on this heathen sleeping through repentence while
in Church. My Bible makes it quite clear that this type of individual will not tarry
in the sight of God. Someone besides the Obama campaign, besides John Kerry
should stand up and tell Bill that no one is foolish enough to trust him but
Hillary and Chelsea. I do not want this power lusting family back in the White House. I do not want to lose the General Election. I hope that Howard Dean
and the Democratic party are not dumb enough to make his wife Hillary the
nominee. As a Black Man in America I have already voted for Barack Obama
and walked away from the Clinton scam!

Sincerely,
WMO

For all America knows Laura Bush has been runing the Government for the past seven years, cause we all know George is too dumb to it.

the reason he said it was he felt the clintons didn't help him in 2004, because if he had won hillary couldn't run until 2012. thats the reason he also endorsed obama. 4 senators, all democrats, are trying to keep her from the nomination, kerry, kennedy and i forget the other two. so its noy about character, or 'stones', its about payback. john edwards was his running mate, but didn't carry his home state, also costing kerry the election. payback, thats always what its about with these guys.

Obama says he did not really know Tony Resko but he bought property from him, Rezko served as a member of Obama's US Senate finance committee, and ABCNews says Obama did not disclose hundreds of thousands of Rezko raised donations….who's the liar now Mr. Kerry??

Very few high profile politicians are willing to stand up to the Clintons when they try to abuse the process.

I salute you J.Kerry!!

There is one thing i know can't happen even in Afghanistan: Nobody will dare vote for a president who sheds tears like Hill with little challenge. Folks, have you considered your her possible reaction if she suprisingly encounters Bin Laden behind closed doors?? She'll definitely have a blackout!

Hillary, call off your attack dog. If you can't can't run this campaign without Bill's smears, how do you expect our support if you can't run you own show.

CNN, my comment has not been printed…I wonder why…is it because it raises some serious concerns about the Obama political (chicago) arm twisting?????

Can you say, "I accept the nomination for Vice President"?

Media is acting like money hungry meniac. They created Obama bigger then he his so they can make money .Now they love Mitt because he is the only one has money.

Also leftist element of Democratic party need to learn from past.

Mondel,Dukakis,Kerry. and now Obama.

Can you say, "VP material"?

Has CNN prohibited Clinton backers Carville and Begalia from appearing on CNN as political analysts because of complaints and pressure from the Obama camp????

So let me see if I get this right: Bill Clinton's a liar when Democrats don't agree with him, but honest when they do?

And of all people, John Kerry accuses someone of distorting the truth for electoral gain?

Best way for the Republicans to win in the modern era: hand the microphone to a Democrat!

CNN, your election coverage borders on the ludicrous. Although you looked good on the Daily show.

The World Loves Bill Clinton. Do you think that we are smart by trashing him? It will just show the world how stupid we still are by trashing him. If Barack has to whine and get others (MSNBC and CNN) to support that whining, Barack may win by getting a guilt presidency will show the world how weak America is. CNN and MSNBC are fighting to show how much they are liberal and that the Clinton's are the devil. Grow up, we are in a global ecomony. Do we really want to act like we don't care about the world? Apparently Obamamaniacs think that thier "non experiece" will be any better than France's new guy.

Spare me the whining that Obama's campaign has been doing.

Shut up Kerry!

Keeping talk, Clintons.

When I look at the candidates, one of the most important traits I look for is integrity. Having integrity doesn't mean a candidate can't change his mind. In fact a person with real integrity will admit if he is wrong and change. Mitt Romney has done this. He has the highest integrity of all the candidates. Sadly, the leading candidate from the other party has lost her integrity time and time again and continues to do so–has done so for at least the last 16 years. Some of the other candidates have very strong points, but I have to say the Mitt Romney is the one real leader with the integrity AND the leadership skills AND the experience and know-how to get this country changed around.

Kerry is one Democrat that can speak the truth.
These silent Dems in front of a reckless Bill remind me of the Republicans.
The two parties are becoming alike.
Be Independent!

I once again admire Senator Kerry for speaking truth to power. He did this in his 2004 campaign and when he stands up for what is right and just, it makes me sad all over again that this great leader is not our president right now.
Mr. Clinton has been over the top and IMO it is more about maintaining power than it is about really supporting his wife. The Clinton's anything for a donation and anything for a vote. I am tired of their brand of politics.

Kerry is like the pot calling the kettle black, he's a liar, Clinton's a liar, Hillary's a liar, Edwards is a liar, Obama's a liar, this entire Democratic parade of charlatans
is a joke and nightmare foisted on the gullible American people.

I expect this from a guy who didn't have the sack to challenge the 2004 election… How easily we forget who had our back… I guess you only liked the Clinton's when you needed their support, without it your run for President would have fallen on it A–!! I guess you are a what have you done for me lately kind of guy….. I am sorry I voted for you.. I had no idea what kind of loyalty you have for past friends… Enjoy your wife's money… You will need it in obscurity…… Thank you for your time.

I waste my money and vote supporting John Kerry -2004. I know why he is supporting Obama he know America is not ready for Black president so he will have another chance 2012.Dream on John.

I can't figure out why women are for Hiliary. She made a great investment while at Rose Law Firm in a very short time. The lost papers were found much later on her end table. She worked with much success at distroying any women that had an affair with her her playboy Bill .
I think Kerry found the only reason that Bill got into power was his looks and being a great speaker. The worst thing anyone did was vote for Ross P. so Pretty Bill was able to kiss up to young voters. Thanks Mr. Kerry for waking up to the way the Clinton's work/ Mr. & Mrs. President again. Justine

So…Bill Clinton's campaign tactics were ok when he was campaigning on YOUR behalf, but now that he is campaigning for someone you don't like, he's the devil? I have voted for democrats in every election for the past 20 years. Yes, John Kerry, I even voted for you against my better judgement. But know this: YOU ARE NO BILL CLINTON! He's the man and you are nothing more than a wannabe.

Waffles anyone?

Thinker, Newport beach, CA.

poor, uneducated people tend to support Clintons because they believe the Clintons can bring them changes that are so real and related to their life. They did once taste the changes and addicted to them.

those so-called well educated Obama's supporters only like the game of politics to be played differently, more excitingly. That is the only change that they need.

You said Obama supporters know how to think or think better, then think about it: who are really in need, and who is needed by those in need.

STOP this all, Pleaseeeeeeeeeeee!!!

Kerry is a joke , just like all the dems.The only way they win is to take from hard working people and give it the do nothings of the country.

To Thinker, Newport Beach, CA: Hmmm. . .Newport Beach. . . Orange County, the very epicenter of conservatism. Obviously you are a Republican so why are you wasting your time here? Why are you not somewhere else, posting messages about your own party and its candidates?

Your demeaning, elitist comments are without merit. Don't waste your phony sympathy on the women of New Hampshire. You show enormous arrogance in labeling them as "uneducated". And FYI, I am an educated woman with a Doctorate in Education and 30 years experience in teaching and school administration. My daughters are well educated also: one a clinical psychologist, the other a school administrator. Believe it or not, we are able to read, think, and analyze the issues and qualities of the major Democratic candidates. Because we've paid attention and done our homework, we are firm supporters of Hillary Clinton.

Oh dear Obama has another member of his slime patrol…too bad Kerry did not come forward and fight for the American People, when rove and bush were going after him. And too bad he didn't fight for the American People and requested a recount in Ohio…but then he has Obama to hide behind and shake his old jelly balls pretending to be somebody.

Hilliary is a fake and this is simply chickens coming home to roost. Why is she a NY Senator any way- she was born in Illinois and lived most of her adult life in Arkansas and D.C.

The only reason anyone voted you was because John Edwards was on your ticket…shut up, John…nobody cares, nobody's listening anymore.

I think Obama and his supporters will grasp just anything surrouding them and claim it is good and relevant:
- John Kerry's words.
- Republican ideas.
- Couple-year experience of living in a foreign country at the age of 10.
- Drug use.

I to was a fierce Clinton supporter, but the comments, the back and forth from the Clinton camp has really turned me off to the Clinton's, If they will do and say anything to get into office, there will be no telling what she's going to do once she gets in office. Thank god Barack will be there instead

I'm a Democrat through and through but, if Hillary gets the nomination I will not vote in the general election. The tactics she is using are no better then what Bush used to get into the White House, and look where we are at folks. When some one will do or say anything to win something then something is really wrong.
I tell you just go out and look at her action during the campaign. In the beginning when every media outlet had her as a shoe in for the nomination, she could care less about using Bill or other dirty tactics. But, wow look at her now, she has used tears, Bill and lies to tarnish a threat!! Therefore I ask you, what you think they will do if they get back in the White House? I mean the 90's they were good but, it's time to move on and not look behind. To win the White House is really just another notch on the Billary belt of political achivement!!! Therefore I say wake up people vote for anyone but her!!!

Don't agree with Kerry too often, but he is right on here. Gutless Kennedy does it behind closed doors, at least this guy shows some guts.

It's not the Republicans fault, no vast right-wing conspiracy or a media driven story sheep, this is FELLOW DEMOCRATS who are calling your King and "Queen" out day after day after……………………….

Even as a Conservative I applaud them, much like Obama, they are speaking the truth.

Why blasting kerry for standing up for the truth at least hes not a sell out , johnson of Black Endangered Thief (BET) . the very REV AL who claim hes black but act like a dog who only play where there's food for him.they all play towards the clinton and still say blacks are minority. AMERICA wake up against all this fake black african leaders.
The real issue is what we all should be talking about how to get out of the many problems BUSHED will be leaving us all with.

I am apalled at Mr Kerry, trying to swift boat the clintons!!! Truth is a relative thing , and everyone has a right to his or her own version of it, Kerry talking about twisting truth is like the pot calling the kettle black,
The swift boat veterans know well how Mr Kerry already adjusts the facts to his own liking

If Hillary were president and Bill got sick. Would Hillary be able to make a decision?

She does not seem to in charge, but Bill is. Hillary is is totally dependent on Bill's

Not sure she would make a good president if she cannot do her own talking.

I hate kerry he messed the democrats over

Guys, don't you see how the Clinton's have dealt the race card to derail Obama?

92% of those who voted for Obama in Iowa were white.
What's wrong with at least 92% of African Americans in S.C voting for Obama too?

They have set the stage so that if he wins in SC on Saturday, they would insinuate its because he is a 'black' person.

The Clintons have truly set us back 30 years.
The Clintons have succeeded in dividing us all and dragging us into the gutter with them.

It's working for them though, because most of the electorate is not particularly smart.

It is not a coincidence that Clinton supporters are not particularly educated – they are the ones that can only comprehend a one-sentence sound bite (the message is put in their minds). Bush did it and succeeded, why not the Clintons?.

Clinton signed off our inheritance to NAFTA
Bush sealed the deal with the war in Iraq.

Between these two families, we no longer have True Democracy.
Yet, some people still want them at the White House? At OUR White house?.

We are in bad trouble.

John Kerry, stay out of it. You blew it in 2004 and again in 2007.

Is John Kerry swiftboating the impeached former president who was videotaped lying under oath?

What exactly is an endorsement by John Kerry worth? Prior to the 2004 election (which he lost) and in all the time after, was he ever talked about or influential? Why should I care about his opinion?

As for Obahma, he seems like a good politician, and will undoubtedly make a good President… one day… after he has had some more experience. I don't "hope" for change, I believe in a plan and the experience to see it through. That being said, I for one am enthralled to see the "Clinton machine" in practice. What a dynamic duo! I hope the win it all!

Richard-When are you and the rest of the HRC crowd going to stop with your hate-mongering. There is NO comparison between Rove and Obama- but after the last two weeks, there seems to be MANY likenesses between Kommandant Karl and the Klinton Kampaign!
We may have lost to the republicans-AGAIN- because of stuff like this!
You beltway boys/girls, and the Machine politics has SEVERELY split this party!
You have no one to blame but yourselves!
You sound more like republicans than many of them do! SHAME ON YOU! SHAME ON BILL!
Obama 08!

What? Is that KERRY running off at the mouth AGAIN?!?!

Why doesn't that loser go crawl back under his rock that he's been under since his drubbing in the 04 general election.

This idiot couldn't beat Bush even after everyone knew he had lied about WMD. No one outside of his home state cares who he's endorsing or what he thinks about anything.

People should not resort to personal attacks here.
Arguments don't change the facts. Facts are constant
Obama has shown himself to contradict what he claims he is.

About younger educated people going for Obama. The explanation is simple: He is young and very vocal and these xteristics appeal to young and educated people. Whether he is honest , sincere or competent is another matter entirely.

Now that Bill has called a truce and went silent, no one is accusing Obama for still continuing the attacks.

Up Hillary '08

It looks to me as if the media is endorsing Obama. They seem to be casting him in a good light all the time, and baiting Hillary Clinton. Of course she is going to come out fighting. I wouldn't expect anything less. I think Barack Obama is a good guy. But I don't think he has the experience in government or diplomacy to lead this country. He gives very eloquent speeches, and is charismatic. I can't see anything else to recommend him for the job. In the very first Democratic debate, Joe Biden made the statement that the next President will have zero room for error. I think he was right. This country is in trouble because of the policies of the Bush Administration. Now is not the time for on the job training. Experience and connections DO matter. That's why I'm voting for Hillary Clinton.

Looks like Obama is leading in Georgia and Illinois polls…All other (20) states come super tues Clinton is ahead most double digits..mmmmmm I bet my money on Clinton…
see if this post gets posted, since cnn favors Obama

SORRY JOHN KERRY, TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE.

As Americans we should see through the mess coming from both sides. As an African American I say we should not support People who just wanna give us a check each month. We need to learn to fish instead of begging. We are not the only community who have had a bad experience in our great nation. The Irish, Eastern Europeans, South Americans, The Chinese have all had a rough and tough time here. They didn't make it out by killing each other, refusing to go to school, refusing to get jobs and refusing to stop harming their own communities through painful ways. The greatest enemy of the black man in America is the black man. Bitter FACT. Obama represents a change he has values and experience desperately needed in our communities. And Whites can learn a lot from a black president lets all move on together as one great and mighty nation and let the healing process finally begin. This is a great country and together we can all make it even greater. Peace and Love to all my brothers and sister white, black, yellow and brown

Clinton haters, CNN the more you all try to pull Hillary down the harder she's gonna kick your behinds. If Michelle can campaign for her husband, Bill has every right to do the same. All the so called political analysts especially the females whose hatred for Hillary is so blatant should just spare us their expertise. Just facts, stop injecting your bias into this campaign.

Obviously, you havent learnt any lesson from New Hampshire!!!

What I'm really scared of is JOHN KERRY'S comment from January 10 when he said, "Obama isn't just going to break the mold……Together, WE are going to shatter it into a million pieces!" I hope he's not backing Obama in hopes that he can jump on the ticket as a Vice President………..that comment alone is making me have reservations on voting for Obama……… I want a leader that is quick on their feet when making decisions, someone who values everyone's opinions, will not get befuddled when challenged, will know when talking won't work anymore, and someone who cares about this country……..I don't like it when race and gender is the focal point of any news article or poll…..And as a white women I am highly offended that they, the media, think African American women will have a hard decision on who to vote for…..I hate to tell you but these women are very intelligent and can make decisions…..I myself am going to vote for the candidate that I believe can do the best and that will definietly not be based on race or gender and I think most people will vote the same way…………………………………….

CANDIDATES – QUIT TAKING POT SHOTS AND GET DOWN TO THE ISSUES AT HAND- WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO FOR THIS COUNTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey CNN (CLINTOON News Network)……why does it take so long to do this: 'Your comment is awaiting moderation'. Is it because we are trying to simply expose the CLINTOONS lies, deceit, crookedness, etc.? Are you trying to protect Shrillary and her Slickster husband for some reason? Is this truly the CLINTOON News Network?

Clintons are shameless, faceless and cold blooded career politicians. They are excellent in "looking you in the eye, lie and lie". John Edwards is trying his best to follow in their footsteps. Edwards is working on getting the vice-presidency or some strong position in the cabinet. He knows he cannot be reelected as a senator again. It is ironic that Karl Rove tactics of lies and deception are totally exercised by Democrats. You think that by going for Democrat you may releive the country from Bush-Cheney-Rove trio. This is just an illusion. The forces behind the same trio switched sides to Democrats now. Perhaps we have to do the unexpected and put a Republican president into the White House again, until political independent movement becomes a reality. Otherwise, the vicious cycle of last 40 years will continue. America is waking up and getting more involved in politics. I have big hopes for the future unless people are again pushed to idiocracy by fastfood, TV shows and greed.

Save your strengh for your everyday job .Don't fight for Obama or Clinton .Final day will come very soon : A white amarican man is president

Go Kerry!! It takes a lot of courage to go against the Clintons! Besides he received more votes than Bill Clinton ever did during his election!
In the end, Bill is just making Hillary and her campaign look really bad.

OBAMA 2008!!

Francois is swiftboating ex President Clinton! That is, telling it like it is. Swiftboating. To tell the truth. Francois, release your military record as promised.

Since the CLINTOONS like Rezko so much, maybe they'll turn that double-wide trailer park that they plan to move into after the election into a SLUMLORD ZONE!!!! wwwaaaaaaahhaaaaaahaaaaaaa!!

I think Bill is hurting her and hurting the Democratic Party… I will not vote for her even if it means voting independent or even republican… Look at this statement Bill Clinton just made, “The President is not called the 'Chief Executive Officer of America' for nothing. You don’t run the bureaucracy but you are responsible for seeing that your ideas turn into positive changes in other people’s lives.” When Hillary criticized Obama for saying "I don't think there is anybody in this race who can inspire the American people better than I can. And I don't think there is anybody in this race who can bridge differences … better than I can. But I'm not an operating officer. Some in this debate around experience seem to think the job of the president is to go in and run some bureaucracy. Well, that's not my job. My job is to set a vision of 'here's where the bureaucracy needs to go.’” She attacked Obama at the Nevada debate about it. She said "I think you have to be able to manage and run the bureaucracy." "I think it’s important that we have a president who understands that you have to run the government,” Who understands them???

It is amazing how all the Hillary people here have the worst grammar, not to mention spelling. This is the same group of people who spends hard earned money buying lotto tickets. There is a reason most people with an education vote for Obama (this is a fact/ check the exit polls). People who have an education tend to think more. Look who voted for Hillary in New Hampshire, mostly uneducated women. I feel sorry for them.

Kerry might be thinking that only way to go to the White House is to as a VP with Obama.

Some dreamer.

Media manipulation at its finest!!! They point out how a big chunk of Black voters are for Obama and how little the number of Whites are voting for him AND THEN blame the Clintons for playing the RACE CARD!!! I can't even point out what it is that the Clintons are doing that is so out of the ordinary… Don't fight Obama's fight for him…he is a grown man, fully capable of defending himself…Thank you very much!! Don't insult the intelligence of the Black electorate!!!

hey stan from pitts pa this is not about bill's sex life. its about the issuse do your homework. hillary 08 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I hope this stream of TGIF BS is not a true indication of the Democratic party.
Because those Republican are going to beat us from within.

Lets show them what we are made of and unite to win.

Although Hillary is the one suppositly running for President, her husband is the one campaigning. This man sold technology to other countries that poses a serious threat to this Country.

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

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

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

WAKE UP PEOPLE THIS IS A SERIOUS SITUATION.

Obama and all his fellow Clinton-haters have learned their lessons well from Karl Rove. They failed when they tried to smear Clinton in 1998 and now they are trying again smear Clinton in 2008.

The American people can see right through the smear tactics of Karl Rove and Obama.

GO HILLARY!!!! GO BILL!!!!

hurry CNN!!! Why does moderation of my comments take so long????????

STOP HILLARY! (And Bill)

Have lost all respect for both Bill and Hillary because of their behavior. They are destroying a chance for the Democrats to win the White House. If she is the nominee, I will not be voting Democratic for the first time in many years.

GO HILLARY AND BILL CLINTON! BOOOO KERRY!

As is the case with one lie, the second comes easy and in the case of those who abuse their power soon they turn on each other.

It's simple folks…
I have never voted for anyone other than a democrat.
If hillary were to win the nomination, I will.
If that happens, I will vote for a repub or an independent, and that's the case with many others.
We (our nation) are better than those who blind sheep who embrace dynasties.
If we are no better, America is a disgrace and deserves what happens.
Keep in mind… a nation with hillary at the helm will NEVER have more than 45% of its populace behind the president – even in times of stress. w was better than that. hillary will never have that.
We've got to be better than this. I'm not alone in this view. In fact, I'm in the majority. If you vote hillary, be afraid.

Ben in Columbus…explain to me exactly what is is the Clinton's have ever done for Black people.

They tell you they care but their only objective is to keep blacks down and dependent on the government.

Please explain with some examples. I'll be waiting…..

Thanks

Look who's calling the kettle black. The self addressed phoney war hero. I spent over 30 months in the South Pacific aboard two ships, three invasiaon and only got three little stars on my Asiatic combat ribbon. I didn't get to come home in three months of combat either like Kerry the self made cry baby. He should keep his cry baby mouth shut.

Anyone who questions how Clinton has abused the truth obviously has their head in the sand – or somewhere else! If they are breathing the Clinton's are lying. It's a fact of life.

And, once again, Sharon: The CLINTOONS are CROOKS, CROOKS and more CROOKS!!!!! How can any of you CLINTOON supporters even utter a word of support for such TRASH!!!! You CLINTOON supporters and your candidate Shrillary and the great SLICKSTER (aka the Hil Billy) are so pathetic, pathetic, pathetic……get the picture?? You people have SCREWED up MINDS!!! But, no wonder, you support Shrillary and the Hill Billy…..no WONDER!!!!

Kerry did not defend himself against the attack from the Republicans.

Clinton by defending herself is showing that she is not going to be another Kerry in Novemebr.

Kerrry has no sense of gratitude.

Truth-

Why is CNN not reporting that Obama changed his vote 6 times because, get this, he didn't mean to vote that way or accidently pushed the wrong button. I don't want someone in charge of our little red buttons (weapons) who might accidently or didn't mean to set them off. Do any of you?

But no,that's not getting reported on. No one was reporting on Rezko until Clinton brought him up at the Debate. If he has nothing to hide talk about it. 5 hours my foot.

No one reported on his voting record of voting "Present" 130 times. His explanations just blew me away, as did his response to the cap freeze on the credit card interest. It was to high, so vote against the 30% cap and let them charge a higher interest. My 17 year old caught the craziness of that answer before Edwards called him on it.

He agrued he'd never endorsed single-payer healthcare. When in fact he did.
He's been back and forth on so many issues, He probably doesn't know what he opposed or doesn't.

I'm glad some they have brought factcheck, back.

Clinton is second only to John Kerry as the nations most prolific abuser of truth.

Sounds like Democrats are finally admitting what the rest of the country has known for years – that the Clinton's will say and do anything to keep their grip on power. Kerry's comments are a good sign for the Democratic party… admitting you have a problem is the first step on the road to recovery.

When will the public wake up and realize the truth about the Clintons? When the media descides to report it!

If Obama does not receive the nomination, I will vote for any Republican before I vote for Hillary. But before that happens, we should write in Obama on election day. He is the true agent of change.

By Bill getting all the publicity, he's taking the heat and spotlight off Hillary. She needs to avoid answering as many questions as possible because each time she opens her mouth, she puts both feet in it.

tonights the last time I watch cnn. I'm sick of them trying to prove their Not racist by backing Obama. As usual they've gone overboard. For years we've heard from Bush, if your not with me, then your unpatriotic. I can see it coming. If your not with me, then your a racist. Enough is enough. Lets have some fairness here.

Maybe Kerry's still mad about losing in 2004 and he's bucking for VP if Obama gets the nomination.
Just a thought.
Go Hillary 08

Kerry is the kiss of death to pretty much anyone who receives it. Too bad Obama was the one to get it this time.

Where are my well thought out responses??? Darn you CNN, anytime I write the facts that make HILLARY shine, and OBAMA faulter, you don't show my entry. What a joke, you only want silly comments that repeat your crap.

ANYBODY NOTICE HOW NASTY IT HAS TURNED SINCE BILLARY LOST IOWA?

SCERW THE PARTY, RIGHT CLINTONS?

Since when have politicians stopped twisting the truth and then all of a sudden the only one doing it is Bill Clinton. And if he stops doing it from then on we will hear nothing but the truth from the others and especially from the Obama camp.And as for the Republicans as we all know since they are the only true believers in God and Country everything they say is nothing but the truth.

To KERRY:

CLINTON WOULD HAVE HELPED YOU TO BE THE PRESIDENT IF HE DIDN^T GET HEART TROUBLE….

Go Hllary! Shut up Kerry! Stop winning Obama. And another thing, I am sick of CNN rooting for Obama.

Bill Clinton – presidential elections won = 2

John Kerry – presidential elections won = 0

I'll side with the 2x winner over the loser. Thanks.

John Kerry is a traitor to those who backed him in 04, he bites the hand that feeds him, I have no trust in him.

Victor Charles
Cranston, RI

Hey Kerry, This just proves I was right when I thought the ticket was backwards in 2004.

Oughta be Edwards this time also. Smartest and best one out there.. Again.

Mr. Kerry please go back to sleep you were in . You couldn't defend yourself from swiftboating and you make fun of Iraq war . BTW, VP place not open for you if that's what you are trying for. Bill did serve his nation well not like you.

***************************************

I don’t think Clintons ever said anything- CNN did alter the story. They are almost campaign against her.

You are listening to the altered story from media.

************************************

Listen to actual conversation. Why Kerry and CNN has endorse truth when its out there

Hillary 08

I am glad i am not voting for another Skull & Bones Member

OBAMA NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AFTER::…….

We had a Bush, then a Clinton, then another Bush. We do not need a Clinton again, this time around.

South Carolina African American voters! Please think all the good things that the Clintons have done for your community over the years. Can you name anything that Obama has done for you. Don't believe him. He is all talk nothing inside. He is selling snake oil by uttering the words of CHANGE and HOPE. Talk alone can't bring about the change. He is so weak, when it comes to judgment and decision-making. Don't waste your vote by siding with him.

Who the hell cares what John Kerry thinks or who he endorses? The man is a loser.

This stimulus package is not going to work. I have questions such as where is the money (150 Billion ) coming from? Is it being borrowed from the US Federal Reserve which is a private corporation owned by 12 Federal Reserve Banks? Will that amount be added to the Federal debt? Has the federal government created the money at no cost to the taxpayers as former President Franklyn D. Roosevelt did every year of his 12 years in office. He created 11.2% of GDP for 12 consecutive years and spent it into circulation which was a tremendous help to bring the great depression to an end. No president before or after FDR created so much money to the benefit of the economy. That is the kind of stimulus package we need today to repair our decaying infrastructure. Government created money is permanent and Bank created money is ephemeral and only stays in circulation as long as someone is paying on it. Our economy is 95% BCM (Bank Created Money) and I would say lees than 5% GCM (Government Created Money).
The US Constitution gives Congress the Power to create money and establish the value thereof. Look it up

I just like that Bill Clinton is defending his wife. That is a good thing. Considering Bill was not always faithful to her. I like that Bill is standing with his wife aggressively.
How does Kerry know truth? He is an idiot.

What is wrong here
I think a lady should be in a dress ,not pant's all the time

I love how everyone is attacking Kerry's past. How he couldn't stand up to the swift boating and how he lost the election in 2004.

Can we also go back to Bill Clinton's past? He lied under oath and got impeached. He was the worst role model by having a illicit sexual relationship while he was still a president……the list goes on.

But lets face it. It's not about the past. Its about our future. The reason why our country is in this mess today is because it has been politics as usual in Washington. We split the country along party lines and nothing gets done. We need a different approach. Hillary Clinton is a great senator. But she has a tendency to split people along party lines. And the last thing we need is the kind of partisan politics that Bush has been playing for the last 8 years. We need to bring the republicans, independents and democrats together. And Hillary just cant do that. Obama CAN.

I've always been apathetic towards politics because I feel that nothing gets done when we play along party lines. We need to forget about our parties for a second and choose the best candidate that will bring our country together. And I think that is Obama.

I supported Kerry in 2004, but his recent childish behavior makes me wonder why. He should just keep his chauvinistic mouth shut.

Kerry has no royalty and he is a sore loser, I used like him but now I am happy he did not win in last election…

I find it strange that a former US President would interject the way he has during this campaign. I voted for him the fist time, and feel the "Clinton Fatigue" that many Americans feel. I also find it strange that the folks who talk about the politics of personal destruction, have been loose with the facts when it comes to Mr. Obama. I think if this type of mudslinging form both camps continues, the Democrats are going to be doing a lot of back-tracking to unify the party for the November election.

Kerry's worried now because he came out for Obama and Obama may not prevail.

You'll see how he changes his story depending upon how big Obama's win is in South Carolina.

Actually, I believe that Obama has more to lose in SC than Clinton. He not only has to win, but he has to win big. If he doesn't and Clinton can claim that she still has at least a small influence in the black community, then Obama loses no matter how many delegates he gets.

It's a shame, but this is the truth. Just as throughout history, members of minority groups have to prove themselves by doing BETTER than the majority just to claim being average.

John Kerry is bad news as far as I am concerned.

He had the best opportunity to beat Bush in 2004 but he fluncked it. Bush won in 2004 due to lack of competition.

This was a man for whom Clinton dragged himself from his sickbed to campaign for ( against doctor's advise)- during his surgery.

In fact the republicans had to say ' The democrats are so deperate to campaign that they dragged a former president from his sick bed to campaign'

This was a man Hillary Clinton defended for his flip flopping by saying ' John Kerry changes his opinion to fit the facts but Bush changes the facts to fit his opinion'.

Now he is now campaigning for Obama and interfering with what is a family issue. He should take care of his own political career.

I think he will end up losing face like Gore did when he endorsed Dean

Up Hillary '08

I wonder if President Clinton told the truth when he was campaigning for Kerry in 2004. How soon one forgets. KERRY WAS UNPOPULAR WITH THE DEMOCRATS AND STILL IS> HE IS UPSET BECAUSE HE IS NOT POPULAR LIKE BILL CLINTON.

As for South Carolina suggesting wheater or not Obama is for real. Hardly the vote in South Carolina is all about race thanks to Jim Clyburn.

SENATOR HILLCRY CLINTON FOR UNITED STATES PRESIDENT, 2008

MR FIIP FLOP…. SHOULD JUST CRAWL BACK IN TO HIS CASKET.

John Kerry's got guts and some dislike for the Clinton's. If Bill had fought for him maybe he would have one in 2004. Bill did not support Gore or Kerry because that would have made it more difficult for Hillary. George Bush was elected in 2000 becuase the country was sick of the Clintons. Bill's bringing it all back! I thought Obama's crack about Bill Clinton's dancing ability in order to be a "brother" was insulting and racist. Imagine the reaction if Tom DeLay had said that…

Hillary reminds me, and many, many other men, of our ex-wives. Shrill, overbearing, narcissistic, ruthless, cackling, …. In the end, we're going to put that memory in our heads, march to the ballot box, and do to Hillary what many of us didn't do to our ex's for years before they left us, or vice versa. This message endorsed by White Males for Barack Obama.

I agree with BIggdawg – In what way does Bill Clinton abuse the truth? The Obama camp cannot even spell out the specifics! Even more strange – the reporters never ask! They just go along with bashing Clinton!

What? Bill Clinton not telling the truth? I'm shocked.

Bill Clinton continues to be a disgrace to the presidency even after he leaves the whitehouse. Anybody remember George Bush conduct himself other than in a dignified manner even as his son withstood attack from both democrats and republicans this past few years? An ex-president that would seek to divide the country by injecting race into the elections just to give his wife an advantage is a disgrace? Shame on Bill Clinton!

John Kerry needs to zip his LIPS. He ran the worse campaign ever. He will be a jinx to Barack Obama. Wouldn't want him on my team. Who needs help to lose?
Whether it's Barack or Hillary…the DEMS will turn out in record numbers on Election Day! The media and GOP will not dictate or steal this election!!!!

II don’t care who Clinton has slept with, if his wife doesn’t care, why should anybody else? ( you know America you got let go of your bourgeoisie mentality)
I do care whoever that he left a country, which was sliding down hill when got into power, in pretty good shape when he left
If his wife can do 75 % of the job he did, we would be so lucky to elect her
but somehow it appears people have very short memories, as they are so very critical of the Clinton's.
Now even more estrange is that I don’t see anybody asking for Bush's blood after he put us in this horrible place we are in right now
People wanted to impeach Bill when he lied about sleeping w/ another women( and I dare any man to say he would not lie about that either), but I don’t see anybody doing the same to a president that lied to us and got thousands of American's ( and Iraqis) killed, so I guess Americans are more concerned with other people's sexual lives then with murderers, because that's what you are when you get people killed by lying …..

as for Kerry, he should shut up, he couldn't manage to get us rid of Bush, so don’t get in the way, because I tell you as much as Americans have a really messed up relationship w/ sexuality, it is even worse regarding race, and it come from both sides ( blacks and whites) so if Obama gets picked, HE WILL NOT BE ELECTED….

It is sad, but it is the true, people forget that most of people voting in elections are not liberals in big cities
Mind you it will be hard enough to push Hillary through, and the only reason she will make it through, is her so reviled husband
As a lot of people miss the lives they had 8 years ago and will vote for her on the weight of the Clinton name, in the hopes she/he will get a hold of this mess and clear it up.
And yes it smacks as unconstitutional, but so is lying to a entire country so your cronies could get billions in public monies, which is what Bush did, and I don’t see anybody screaming on the news about it, yes CNN that includes you too….

Having said that, too bad this contest is being treated and run as if only Clinton/Obama were present, as John Edwards, would have a lot more appeal realistically speaking, and he got his stuff together ( I would have voted for him, and I am a colored women), but alas it is not to be either( Sorry ED, this is a country obsessed with Brittany Spears, not many grown ups here)

So yes of all evils, the lesser is still the Clintons, so Shut up Kerry, and go home to Teresa ( too bad she didn’t get to be a first lady, Hillary got nothing on her)

J in San Francisco

I hope Obama has enough sense not to have Kerry as V.P. As George T pointed out, Kerry has a lot of skeletons in his closet which could hurt the Obama campaign. One of which is his illegitmate African -American son. Kerry said in an interview with South carolina affliate that he is for the AA advancement, yet he (Kerry )won't acknowledge his AA son nor help him pay for his college education. ?? Kerry is a joke!

Now to Clinton, he is acting like he is insane. The way he is carrying on….If Hillary HAD a chance..it's gone now. That's okay, because Barrack will get the nomination and face of with either Mccain or Romney…and Barrack will win.

So Obama keep this in mind—-winning will be the best revenge against the Clintons. Stay the course and please don't choose Kerry as VP!!!!

All of you on this blog hating John Kerry….because you know he's right. Some
people just can't take the truth.

All this vitriol makes me even more convinced that the best choice is John Edwards.

Kerry is a looser, Oboma is a dreamer with no proven ability to get the job done, Hillary is power hungry and will say what ever is popular at the polls, Edwards is just trying to hang on becouse he is only a shadow of his two democratic nominations. The whole democratic party has turned it's attention further and further to weakening our national security, economy and social structure.

Well, let'ssee. Who likes McCain? The New York Times. Time and Newsweek magazines. John Kerry. Bull Clinton. Need any more reason not to vote for the man if you are a Conservative? Moderate that comment liberal!

Kerry please step out of the picture. You had your chance and "BLEW IT" so just sit down, watch from the sidelines and vote. Please I ask the media to keep to consider the voters. As far as I'm concern Kerry is out of the picture and as far as VP are you kidding me?

Why can't kerry say that bill clinton is a liar, always was, always has been and always will be. And, he's the one going to restore America's image? Sure, send a LIAR out there. World leaders just love a liar…sheeeeesh…give me a break!

John Kerry?!

The guy who couldn't beat George "Lie, lie lie, invade, scare the electorate, screw-up the economy" W. Bush?"

Good luck with that, Senator.

Kerry is such a joke – an unfunny, sad joke.

oh, i'm at the bottom of the list

WOW you Billary people are REALLY Bothered by this aren't you! Your comments range from Childish tantrum to downright BITTER.

Tellus the REAL reason why this bothers you so much.

Personally I think that they both look like mannequins. Kerry has alot of nerve criticizing Clinton when he himself acted like a wimp when he let Bush get his way about being the president. He disqusts me.

I would like to ask John Kerry why didn't he fight back during his own campaign with the swift boat ads? Why?

A socialist calling a communist a liar, big deal. We know for a fact that they are both liars.

I have been voting democratic since 1968. If Hillary Clinton becomes the candidate for the Democratic Party in the November elections, I will sit on my hands or vote for the Republican candidate.

Kerry is a liar. Takes on to know one. Go away, Kerry. Once a fraud, always a fraud. The Swiftboaters who served along side you know the truth. The MIAs & POWs wives know the truth! (Remember that MIA's wife you tried to get a date with after you "declared all the MIAs & POWS dead" when you were a jr. Senator?) You're a pig! YOU ARE A FRAUD. YOU ARE A LEACH. GO AWAY. Strong letter to follow…

Kerry if just hopeful of becoming Obama's running mate, if he wins the primary. I voted for Kerry in the last election, but he is getting on my nerves this time.

………and who else would be an authority on abusing the truth but old "Swiftboat Kerry" . The man who threw his madals away, then mysteriously had them years later adorning his office walls. The man who said “I actually did vote for the $87 billion before I voted against it.” Yes folks, he knows abusing the truth when he sees it ! But hey, he sometimes forgets, like the time he was on covert operations in Cambodia on christmas eve 1968, he said under Pres. Nixons orders. Unfortunately Nixon wasn't the President in 1968. Abusing the truth? This guy is a friggin' master of that folks.

When was truth ever a necessity with this (Clinton) pathological liar?

The chickens are coming home to roost with the Clintons…even their own party are turning against them…I truly believe Hillary is not going to make it in the long run of this campaign….

I voted for John Kerry because the only other choice was W. He didn't and does not seem to know what he is talking about and he is still just pandering to what he thinks is the most popular thing right now: Obama. I would be scared if he had endorsed Hillary.

Kerry! Who is this guy? The forever loser. Who is he endorsed will lose, too!!!
He'd better shut up!!!

I am a Vietnam vet and I hate Kerry and in my book he is the biggest loser…go off with your second wifes millions and leave us alone you flip flopper!!!! Gosh he is such a big jerk!!

How do you abuse the "truth" ??? At least it was the truth ! Is that like cramming the truth down someones throat or what ???

What about the last debate where Obama said he opposed the Iraq war all along and then later, in the same debate, stated …"I, like Hillary, voted for the Iraq war and later had second thoughts…" How is it that no one has caught that ?? Are some of you so blinded by his fluff that you are not listening to his words?
He sounds just like any other politician…razzle dazzle 'em.
What about the fact that he voted against a cap on the credit card interest rates !!!
Did you hear his reason ??? He didn't like the way it was worded……so he votes in FAVOR of the credit card companies…???? What kind of crap is that?

They will say anything to get elected. She brought up Rezko and there her and bill took a photo with the man. Shes a liar, Bill's a liar Chelsea is ugly. If she is the nominee then I will sit it out and really make em pay.

Obama 08

sKerry calling b.j. billy a liar. How funny is that?

John Kerry should be quiet. He is a loser. He made an unsuccessful bid for president.

—Be quiet, a loser

Flip-Flop Kerry has no backbone!

re "Concerned's" remark: it's so sad to see how biased CNN is against the Clintons…maybe because CNN are republicans and want Obama to win the nomination so the republicans can have their choice of president. GO HILLARY!

I was going to vote and support Hillary as an independent but after watching this from the NATIONAL ORGANIZATION OF WOMEN Im changing my mind and voting for Borak Please watch the youtube video of Lorna Brett Howard who was a supporter of Hillary and becuse of this Hillary received lots of women votes…After Hillary starting lying about Obama Lorna changed her position…Hillary just hurt herself with the WOMEN VOTE!!! We democrat women need to show Hillary that Dis honesty is plain wrong. What a mess…Please go to youtube and watch the video. When you go to the web page just enter Lorna Brett Howard and it should come up…….This is a crucial issue to all women. Check out these videos featuring Lorna Brett Howard, the former President of Chicago NOW (National Organization of Women).In the first video, Lorna describes why she went from being a Clinton supporter to a strong Obama supporter, in the wake of Clinton's misleading attacks on Obama's record on choice…In the second video, Lorna describes how Senator Obama was a critical advocate in the fight to preserve choice in South Dakota…For more on Obama's strong…

I can't see what the Clintons did for blacks either so yes it would be good to have someone explain what they did.Iknow a bit of dirty work did while in the White House.A nd it 's funny how Hill @Bill have forgotten all the crooks they had as company.Norman Hsu the 850,000 donor.Then they had friends like Jorge Cabrera cocaine smuggler,Ng Lap Seng,bordello owner not forgetting the host of their friends that went to jail.Like Jim and Susan Dougal so I don't think they should say to much about Obama.If Hillary handles negotiations with other countries leaders the way she handles herself on the debates I'm sure we will be at war just as sure as she was ready to go war with BUSH against Iraq and Iran.At least Obama has the sense to think and to listen and reason what is the right thing to do.Not being persuaded by someone saying this is what we need to do, instead of saying lets see what are the other options first.

Someone please tell me why Hillary did not run in 2004? Was it because she was not electable?

If kerry had any brains and knew how to campaign Bush would not have won in 2004. He needs to cool it and shut up.

Someone said " just had a very scary thought. What if Hillary won the nomination and then picked Bill as her VP runningmate. I think I'd leave the country."

I will be more scared if we put another republican in the White House..GWB is like a rock..only dumber

Thank you John Kerry!

I officially hate BOTH clintons and if they steal the nomination , I will vote Republican in protest because there will be no difference between the Republican and Hillary anyway.

Republicans are open with being evil

Hillary is deceptive with being evil

Both are evil.

Most men I know would defend their family against attacks and as far as I can see Obama dose plenty of attacking. How about you all stop whining and get down to what matters. Kerry should know better is he going to complaine when the Republicans go after him? This Attack stuff goes both ways.

Being a stateman or going back to the WHITE HOUSE???
Obviously Bill Clinton wants to go back to the WHITE HOUSE at all cost. Unfortunately this is telling hard, infact very hard, on Bill Clinton morally and healthwise. The good looking Bill Clinton is now looking more than 20 years older than his age, this is bad for Bill Clinton.

Kerry once again muddies the water. Why does he take on the republicans? Is he secretly working for Rove?

Watching black voters give up the "race card" for the sake of Bill and Hillary is way beyond anyones logic.

Must be Hillarys cameo impression of a Black Pastor that won their hearts!

What an insult to anyones intelligence…….eating that up for a few Happy Meals!

The more criticism I hear about the Clintons, the more I want to vote for them. I am still on the fence, but If anyone thinks Bill Clinton should not be campaigning for his wife, they are wrong. Because one of his jobs in life was President of the United States, dosn't mean he can't back his wife. I'm 50 years old, and every Prsidential election I have ever been a part of, All the canidates had there wives/husbands behind them campaigning. Granted most of them were men, but this is 2008. That is lame ammunition. Tell me you wouldn't back your spouse.

why does the Communist news network (CNN) always keep negative comments made against the clintons on the ticker for hours, and take off positive news about Hillary , e.g New York times story It is quite obivious that they are pro poor OBAMA and will do whatever they can do to get him elected.

I do not expect this to stay on because of the negative critisims to CNN oh well. I still enjoy the news though.

To Ben in Columbus: Exactly what is any president supposed to DO for you? Give you everything and make you work for nothing? Clinton did something for Blacks? In the words of Malcolm X, you really HAVE been hoodwinked, run amock, led astray. It's blacks like you and your white apologists that keeps you in the seespool you're in you pathetic welfare sponge.

Wow the FLIP FLOPPER is out of the bag john kerry is a sour old man who needs to sit down somewhere because his career is so washed up and finished that he would say and do anything to get back in the media BILL CLINTON is more of a PRESIDENT then john kerry can ever dream of being. he is mad because BUSH stomp the hell out of him in 04 so KERRY keep your mouth closed PRICK

You ask what Bill clinton did for Black People, nothing, nothing, nothing. what make you think he did something for Black PEople? well Use Them. Master Clinton. Is that what Black People want.

I think that as long the opponents draw Bill out front it gives the appearance of him running for his third term, rather than Hillary running for her first. This makes it difficult to sell the idea that she is the agent of 'change'. Instead it implicitly frames the debate with overtones of the 1990's. That's not moving forward.

Kerry is just looking for a way to make himself relevant and possibly an Obama administration cabinet position. Who knows maybe even VP.

Those of you who think that Bill Clinton is a divider need to think about his two terms in office. The GOP hated him, but they were also willing to work with him. The worked together to balance the budget for example (neither could have done it alone). Hillary is highly respect by the military and by other Senators. You don't have to like someone to work with them. You do, however, have to know where they stand. A guy who votes present 123 times is hard to get a read on. BTW, I know a rep in the IL legislature (on the GOP side unfortunately but a very nice person). Voting present that much is NOT normal. The tactic, apparently, is most commonly used to avoid taking the heat on a vote. Obama's excuse in the debate was contrived at best. If Hillary had done that, eveyone would be calling her a liar. I want someone as president who can negotiate, not someone who would give a great state of the union address.

I was stunned, when John Kerry publically endorsed Obama as a presidential candidate, rather than his extremely well-qualified Vice Presidential running mate John Edwards. Since then, I've begun to question what John Kerry says all the way.

I believe Hillary Clinton, and John Edwards are both extremely qualified to be our president and look out for the welfare of our people and our country. I don't believe Obama is qualified to adequately handle the enormity of the task at hand, come January. He would be relying too heavily on certain advisors with their own agenda's just as the current administration has done since 2000.

When did John Kerry ever tell the truth. This is the pot calling the kettle black.

I love reading the Clinton-bots attacking John DDDD Kerry. What a bunch of scum the left is. Eat your own. Hysterical.

Obama started the whole nit picking, is everyone forgetting that?
Hillary is looked at with a fine tooth comb. Even the clothes she wears are evaluated.
When is Obama going to talk about how he is going to fix the economic nightmare going on now.
At least with Clinton we had 8 years of out debt. and had surplus money.
As democrates we can all feel good that the 3 Top Canidates would all do a fine job. Poor Republicans have no one running that is worthy to be President.
Obama is a fine candidate but his time is not now. A little more experience and I think he will be able to implement change.

I apologtze to you CNN.There are many that blame you and call you biased on all sides,but it's mostly frustration at having no voice.After reading most of the blogs all day,I fear that hate is dividing this country.I do not think anyone is stupid,racist,blind hateful or un-American for backing their candidate,but surely ther are more voices than some that have over fifty posts,and they contain nothing but hateand vitriol.And this is simply from ONE person!(you know who you are,Blank from pa).but I am sure you understand the rightful indignation that some feel,when they post an intelligent critique,only to see hate printed instead.And to the bloggers,I appreciate constructive criticism,but fail to grasp the use of schoolyard childlike rants with no substance.Please lay off the hate and stop abusing others for their choice.It's called Freedom.

Why should we all get worked up about ANYTHING any politician says? They're all out there for their egos.

What works for me is a complete – Democrat-Republican-Independent wipe out in Washington DC and most state capitals, too. How about a third party of the people for a change???

Tired of all the attention given these liars and wannbes.

To those who keep saying that the Clintons have done so much for Blacks, please enlighten me. What have they done? Really, what have they done?

For someone who could not defend himself when he was running, John kerry sure know how to carry water for someone else. Maybe he think he's in line for VP since if Obama wins, he sure will need a babysitter; Just like George Bush.

Great stuff!I I could get to like this primary business. Imagine that, Democrats pointing fingers at each other and saying awful, demeaning things. I must say, I for one am enjoying this theater immensely.

Poor Bill…we all thought he was a good president in the 90s then the truth unveiled itself. Inflated stock market which began crashing in his last months in office, sleep at the wheel on terrorism (except for bombing some pill factories in Sudan), sleep at the wheel on global warming and alternative energy (now we know he was on the payroll of the shieks).

Why did Hilary vote to invade Iraq?

Its all Bill's fault. Sources say his neglect left here alone late nights giving an opening for Paul Wolfowitz to get in her ear.

Yes to Hilary. No to Bill.

Why did Bill cost Hillary my vote on February 5th? Not because he stretched the truth. But because in doin so, he insulted my intelligence. With everything a candidate says being recorded these days, it took 30 seconds to find the full clip where Obama's comments are put into context. No one as smart as Bill could have thought Obama was praising Reagon's ideas. So Bill was simply saying 'I don't think you, the voters, are smart enough to decipher the truth. Bill, I admire what you are doing with the Clinton Global Initiative. Now go back to it and stop making us all remember the dark side of 90's politics.

I find it shocking that more Americans don't see through the Clintons. If they did, then Hillary wouldn't still be the leading Democratic candidate in national polls. When it comes right down to it, if Democrats nominate Clinton and she ends up going against McCain, she will lose and we'll have 4 more years of Republicans in the white house. Beyond that, she's an inherently divisive political figure, which means that even if she wins the presidential election, her ability to accomplish anything as president will be greatly diminished. And even beyond that, I simply find it incredible that anyone would be interested in having a president who engages in a campaign as nasty and win-at-all-costs oriented as she and her de facto vice-president Bill have. She truly strikes me as being far more interested in simply being president than she is in actually serving the country. Please, Democrats, wake UP!!

It seems Kerry is lacking loyalty. How many people can he screw over in one campaign? I thought he was a mistake 4 years ago and I am so glad he is proving me right today. Hillary, Edwards, and the rest of true LOYAL Democrats are better off without him!

he is a silly man Kerry.. very silly man
if it is the truth why mean "abusing the truth"
it is either the truth or it is not the truth
if it is the truth then it is the truth does not matter the abuse

I Iike Hillary Clinton, very good lady for all woman in this country USA and also in all the world we support you.

What the Clinton's are saying is, Obama is a nice black boy who isn't ready for a big job. Sound familar!

Hell Hath No Fury Like A Clinton Supporter Scorned

i think this is not d time for folks to start attacking 1 candidate or the other,you just need to listen to what change they have got to offer.

This great country got fooled in 2000, then in 2004, and now we see the same foolish political games in 2008. Why people fall so easily to these dirty political games?! People who really care about this country and your own future – wake up!

It is a pity to read from all these pack of bloggers who indiputably support Hillary from distant Germany. They are only full of insults. They are mean-spirited, even silly! It is shocking! How do they expect to woo decent people to support Hillary. Wake up America!

If Kerry had talked this way about W. Bush, maybe he would be president today.

Truth Squad what a statement
Dont you realise that the U.S. population has grown also since Clinton was elected.

Kudos to you John! I now have a lot more respect for you in telling the truth. Bill Clinton's distortion of Barack's integrity and bull dog tactics is disgraceful. But since Clinton himself said he doesn't give a "rip" what anyone thinks of him, the bullying mentality will continue.

Shame on you Bill!

Everyone here, take a look at the headlines and see how many times you see the name Clinton. Take a look at their "news" coverage on television and see how many times you hear Clinton. Has anyone here seen the Clinton Chronicles? While I don't believe everything in it, it does raise SERIOUS questions for me, also take a look at "The Century of the Self" on google video or youtube. If you take a look, especially towards the end it talks about how the Clintons used marketing strategists to convince people that they were one of them and on their side, that's why people think the 90's were so good. So good that we had to drive gas guzzling SUV's, sign NAFTA agreements to loose our overabundance of jobs, and make our military smaller.

Pot calls the kettle black!

Obama started the whole nit picking, is everyone forgetting that?
You want a change, well let's put a woman in the White House instead of another man. Men and women are different in how they handle situations. Men are Men. color does not matter.
Hillary is looked at with a fine tooth comb. Even the clothes she wears are evaluated.
Kerry is doing no favors for Obama by sticking his nose in this. He lost to Bush "The Village Idiot" and I have little respect for him.
When is Obama going to talk about how he is going to fix the economic nightmare going on now.
At least with Clinton we had 8 years of out debt. and had surplus money.
Obama is a fine candidate but his time is not now.

Bill Clinton has spent a lifetime in politics in Arkansas and on the bigger stage of national politics, and he has always "abused" the truth wherever he has gone and whatever he has done. He doesn't know what the truth is. He just knows what he wants it to be; so he tells people what he wants to be the truth. It's funny to hear a fellow Democrat accuse Bill Clinton of something that most of the rest of us have known about him for years.

Obviously, Kerry is even more of a waffler than we knew. It's this type of 360-degree changes that make him so terribly entertaining…

Kelly is right, the former president has just gone too far to in critising senator Obama. What would happen if all the presidents now living can stand up and take sides? It shows how power hungry the Clintons are. Tristing the facts for political gain is what the Clintons are doing

> you need to chill Bubba, I am sick of these Repulican style attacks.

Given that the Clintons have been leveling EXACTLY these kind of attacks for OVER 15 YEARS, it is more accurate to concede that you are sick of these Democratic style attacks.

Bill Blinton is abusing the truth in the fashion of

Genghis Khan.. haha

Thank you active military and veterans.

John Kerry………….Sorry but you gave in to attacks on yourself in the previous election rather than take it to the mat. Stay out of this and get a life that will help this country. Where have you been since the Economy tanked months ago???????????????????

You are entitled to your opinion John Kerry, but I really think you are abusing the truth. Your comments are also quite over the top!

Of course Kerry's going to try to sway the Votes for Sen. Clinton by BASHING Bill Clinton… KERRY ENDORSED OBAMA…Keep up the spinning…OBAMA JUST AVOIDING THE REAL PRESIDENTIAL…Keep up the good work Sen Clinton…IGNORE THE SPIN…..former Pres. Clinton Stand up against the Spinners and Keep us informed who's spinning….EVEN THE MEDIA,,,,,,GOOD JOB CLINTN CAMPAIGN…..sooner or later OBAMA"S head is gonna SPIN OFF

If Kerry would have fought the republicans mcahine the way the Clitons are fighting for the best job in America, he would have been the sitting president now.
Kerry we heard you but you are not selling.

It's funny how it took until 2008 for Democrats to finally realize that Bill Clinton has a problem telling the truth. Everyone else came to that conclusion about a decade ago. Welcome to reality, Dems!

Sen. Kerry has to be kidding. To chide someone about protocol when he has none. He disrespected his running mate by endorsing someone else without the courtesy of a phone call. He is desperately wants to remain relevant, but is going about it in the wrong way.

He is doing the same thing that he is accusing others of doing. We still remember what you said to those students about going to Iraq.

Regarding the vile look on Hillary's face when she attacked Obama. It was SCARY!!!! It will be forever etched in my mind. When the moderator tried to interrupt her, she said something like, "Wait a minute, don't stop us now; we are just getting warmed up." She was revelling in the whole exchange. I imagined her rolling around in the mud pulling out hair to get what she wants. I was never caught up in the whole Clinton worship thing. Thought she was a smart enough woman and had Barack Obama not surfaced, would have thought she would be a good candidate. Not after I saw that exchange on Saturday. It was ugly and showed a side of her that was repugnant! No wonder Bill had all those affairs. I can't blame the man. She is an ice princess! Obama represents something revolutionary. Clinton represents the same old recyled policies. Yeah I'd like to see a woman in the White House, but not this woman. Should she win the seat, she will be so divisive and distructive that by the time she's done, we will not see another woman in the White House for decades. So, all you Clinton supporters, look past your desire to have a woman in the white house. Why not hold out for an extraordinary woman so that she can leave a positive legacy for other woman who are aspiring to that position.

I am voting for Obama during the primaries. However, if Hillary gets nomination, it will be so much fun watching the Republicans chew out Billary.

Can you imaging Hillary saying "I have 35 yrs of drinking tea experience with other presidents wives and i can solve the economy problem". Romney will eat her up.
Will definately vote Republican this fall if Hillary is nominated.

I love John Kerry, he is a great guy. God knows Kerry will rule this great nation one day. Those who are attacking him are doing so because of sheer jealousy…

Neither of them would know what the truth is if it hit them in the rear end. Or even what is- is.

I don't know why on earth anyone would even give John Kerry the time of day. This man single handedly lost the most easiest election possible. He has no credibility and he should go home and retire. John Kerry, Mary Beth Cahill and Susan Estrich are the last people who should be telling anyone how to run their campaigns. They are worst than incompetent.

To all those accusing the Clintons of being liars………
Tell me what they said that is a lie. What stateent did they make that you consider a lie?

Way To Go Kerry! Keep putting presure on the Clintons!

I have to wonder why everyone is getting on the band wagon against the clintons. kerry should stick to what he knows best "marrying socialites." He has been using too much ketchup. What did barack promise him? A vice presidency?

and by the way, It was ok for Obama to call Edwards"white" and to make reference to "brother" when asked if Clinton was the first Black President.
It would be interesting to see if the Clintons made this kind of remarks?

I think that John Kerry is just a sore loser since he did not win the presidential election in 2004. It's his own doing that he lost that election. Bill Clinton has the right to say what he believes will help distinguish the qualifications between Hillary and Barack. In the last debate, we saw the real Obama – rude and inexperienced. Look at his facial expression while Hillary was speaking – stoic
Did anyone in the media make any comment on that? And his reply regarding interest rates was just "stupid". Was he listening or was he in another space? I thought he is good in public speaking. Nope!!!!
More debates between Hillary and Obama, PLEASE!!!!

"What does "abusing the truth" mean?"

Senatorspeak for translating out of context while implying direct lies without saying a former president is lying.

I think it's a new form of linguistic statistics that doesn't rely on graphs and scale to distort reality just the failure of our education system.

Of course as Bill knows what "is" means I'm sure he understood completely.

Maybe Herman Munster AKA John Kerry should ask his buddies the Swift Boat Veterans For Truth to step in and publicize some dirt on the Clintons. He'd be doing America a favor to make those two hillbilly trash Democrats disappear from the public scence forever. Behind bars would be a good place.

Everytime men have campaigned for President they always "parade" their wives, children, sisters, or mothers around the campaign arena….even Barak Obama. I see no reason why Bill Clinton can't be out there "plugging" for his wife. Hillary has done the same thing for Bill on numerous occasions. She deserves some reciprocation. John Kerry needs to keep his mouth shut…and if Obama can't take it, he needs to get out of the race.

I love to watch liberals implode….I mean, wasn't Bill Clinton your hero just a few years ago. Weren't you defending him to the upmost while he PERJURED himself?

Now you turn on him and recognize him for what he actually is AND was, prior to this election season.

A few short years ago, you called Kerry your president-to-be, defending him against accusations from heroic war veterans, now he's just a flip flopper.

HAHA, welcome to reality, I am glad you've finally been enlightened, to bad the learning curve has been so elongated for you.

This is not Kerry's time. He obviously wasn't eloquent enough to verbalize his way to the presidency. Bill Clinton, albeit not perfect, is an accomplished American President.

Any negative comments need to be targeted toward the current administration and its henchmen who have, in the last seven years, managed to ruin this country.

A word to Mr. Kerry and the rest of us DFL Party – Let Hillary, Obama, and their spouses duke it out. Its part of the process! Watch, listen, and learn. Eventually our candidate will be selected. In the mean time, lets stand as one !

God bless Hillary, Obama, and Edwards. While we have a choice to make, let it be in the voting booth. Let the bickering end, and the restoration of this country begin. Lets show the Republican party how a government by and for the people not only works, but sets an example – one the rest of the world doesn't hate us for.

Tell all your friends to vote. Power to the people – lets take it back.
God Bless our candidates, and god bless America !

I used to admire Clintons, but events of the past month reversed my opinion 180 degrees. Hillary Clinton clearly knows how to play political games – hers and Bill's "experience" in these games fools more and more people. The only question is if she will win the democratic nomination this way – can she beat the republican masters of political games in November? – I don't think so! Especially given the fact that she does not have support among independents and now loosing big chunk of the democrats who finally see real face and "values" of Clintons and their old team. This great country got fooled in 2000, then in 2004, and now we see the same foolish political games in 2008. People who really care about this country and your own future – wake up!

Oh please. This is just another instance of John Kerry being all about … John Kerry. Note that the full qoute is about Kerry saying how ""We" are going to shatter …" He is angling for a VP slot or some form of bonus for supporting Obama.

There's no telling who Kerry will support tomorrow; perhaps Gravel of Alaska. This dude goes which ever direction the wind blows.

I never would have voted for him had I known what a back stabber he is.

Who is John Kerry to be the democratic judge,

The Clinton's: Hillary and Bill are conning America. Their agenda is for themselves. If Americans cannot see this we are in deep trouble. I'd like to see someone altogether new in office. No more Clintons and No more Bush. let's get real and move on.

Arizona Voter

I'm a young independent. The reason I am independent is because instead of identifying with one particular party, I see ideals in both that appeal to me. What does NOT appeal to me is the negative campaigning. I am tired of the bickering, and I tire of the misrepresentation of the facts by all.

I will not be voting for Clinton because she does not represent my values properly. I have yet to decide if I will vote for Obama or a McCain– I am waiting for breadth of their races. I like the thought that Obama will bring something fresh to Washington. His race is not a factor to me. He represents for me, the changing face of America. He exudes what Hillary fails: Warmth, Genuine Excitement, Enthusiasm, and Change.

Many of you have said that what one does in their personal life does not matter in their campaign for presidency and I believe that is false. If one has a habit of making bad decisions, they will more than likely continue to do so. I think Hillary makes bad decisions based on the state of her household and her time as a NY Senator. I do not trust her husband, as he lacks the innate credibility of a spouse and leader. He is neither loyal, nor genuine–and U.S. history reflects the awful flaws of his character.

I think many women across America are disillusioned. They seem to identify Hillary as this strong woman who has, with them, changed along the decades. She is not. Unlike many of you, she does not have the ability to maintain a happy and productive home. She has no experience coming out on top when situations get rough. She simply hides and diverts her path to another road. America needs unity in our time of crisis and Hillary does not come across as a unifying figure. Washington needs something new, and she is not new, but rather a re-run of what has already been.

I finally understand why Mr. Clinton said "GIVE ME A BREAK" what HILLARY said regarding MLK and Johnson was a positive fact in history – THE TRUTH however you look at it is when you are educated – about facts! Since then OBAMA and his campaign have accused both clintons of the worst – not cool! I'm voting for HILLARY because she is the best human for the job – and as for Ed… if you are such a GROWN UP, how come you have to say you are – you don't need the FBI or the CIA to know that the real offense is how uneducated people are in America and how much of a rude awakening how sad that OBAMA is just as human an uneducated as anyone else in politics. Vote for whoever you want but accusing the clintons of all this B.S. does have to stop or those accusing will realize they only ending their own chances to win – this is not a WO-MAN VS MAN issue or has anything to do with race – it's the human race – get a clue people…

The educated voter will be the winner!

I am for Obama over Clinton anyday, but REALLY, John Kerry?! However, if some people will listen to him and vote for Obama, it will have been worth utlizing the blowhard.

OBAMA Supporters:

Listen Up!

See, your man is not ready yet to be president. He lacks INTELLECTUAL STRENGTH, and this is always borne up during the debates. He cannot withstand the strong board room back and forth that a president has to deal with in a cabinet meeting, etc.

Sorry guys, this is HILLARY's TIME. Obama's last stand is SC, and we might even sneak a surprise on him there!

Go HILLARY 08!!!

As for John Kerry, …. i forgive you, man.

A am shocked at the number of people who say Kerry is a loser. Actually the losers are the American people that had to and still have to suffer thru another 4 years of Bush. Maybe the losers are the people who didn't get out and vote.
As for Bill, I can't help but notice that it says that Obama does better with educated people. That about says it all in my book. You would have to be stupid to fall for Bill and Hillary's lying lips.

Kerry who?? Is it the guy who got beaten by Bush Jr. in the past election?

Regarding Mr. Kerry's comments about Mr. Clinton, I am now finally very glad that he did not win in 2004!!! He is just spiteful and wants to make noises.Hillary is it and he better should get used to it!!!

So, John Kerry walks into a bar and the bartender says "Hi John, why the long face?"

Hold on now- ALL Politicians have licenses to abuse teh truth!!

That did it. I am a long standing Conservative Republican, and I just MIGHT change to a Democrat DURING the primaries and vote for Obama to stop the clinton slime machine. Let's just say I will do this for the "cause".
Then I will vote Conservative during the General.

When will we put an end to the dynasties in the US? If we give Hillary the nod, come back with Jeb Bush, why in 16 years Chelsea will be old enough to be president. When does it end?? I would say we should end it now.

Please tell me that most of you who are posting comments are not reasonable adults because the Kerry, Obama, and even Hillary bashing/slandering is childish. You are the reason why this country is in the state it is…

Its okay support your candidate but not at the cost of respect.

Ben, Columbus, Ohio January 25, 2008 1:05 pm ET: "As an African American, what has John Kerry ever did for us?"

Hey Ben,

It's "what has John Kerry every done for us?".

Bill should cool it, Barak will unify the country, while Bill will only succeed to divide the democratic party. Clintons have to dig into Obamas' past to find the least little thing, and try to make a negative. He is not a truth teller as witnessed by his impeachment, for lying under oath. He is not under oath now and lies even harder.
Hillarys' experience is exagerated, she wrote a childrens book, for the start of a presidential run, then had tea partys at home and abroad. Hillary wants to share Bills' successes, will she share in his impeachment, did she give up her law license because Bills was revoked.
Who will want to be vice president, with Bill in the way. Kerry has a right to speak out, he had more votes than Clinton had in 92 and 96; even though he lost in 04.
One thing is clear is that the Clinton team is willing to divide the party to win the nomination, only to lose the general election. You can be sure that the young and black will sit this one out if Barak loses due to Clinton lies and dirty tricks. Hillary can not afford that with her high negatives to begin with. The only thing that Hillary can unite is the republican party to turn out and dems to stay home election day.

Mr. Kerry, after you lost, you retreated to the silence of defeat. You could have been a strong voice for the American people against the wrong policies of GWB. But Hillary chose to be that strongest voice of the party and for the American people. I wonder if you have done thorough research about Obama before endorsing him. Some things in his background that are now apparent does not support his standing as " a breath of fresh air " in American politics that the media has reported. Our country will be better off with Hillary as president. Go Hillary '08.

As already mentioned in comments above – stop the in-fighting. Democrats need to stop the bickering back and forth between each other and start going after the republican candidates – why aren't we seeing headlines about Clinton going after Romney, Obama going after McCain? Instead we get to hear about the former, losing Democratic nominee from 2004 giving an unflattering opinion of another Democrat who supported him back in 04….

And for all who keep throwing out the old Bill Clinton impeachment garbage(lying, etc..) at least he didn't send 4,000 soldiers to their deaths, wound even thousands more soldiers, and kill an incredible amount of civilians (in a foreign country, no less) based on his lies to the American people and congress – get a grip on yourself if you have the audacity to even mention Clinton being a 'liar.'

Agree with Rex wholeheartedly.

I like Bill, but truth telling is not one of his strengths. Let's get real people…Bill has been distorting the truth like crazy. That's what he does. That's what a lot of politicians do. The only difference is that Bill adds a little more drama and finger wagging to make you think he really is telling the truth.

Former president should have the manners of a "Diplomat"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The "Clinton Empire" are not showing any respect for the common people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Corporate Giants" equals the "Clinton Empire"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why does a young fourth grader get to live with the memory of not being considered "Good Enought" to speak with a young person from the "Clinton Empire"?????????

Clinton is helping his wife and Mrs. Omama is helping her husand. Kerry should stay out of the family feud.

Kerry was a loser, run on no ability for USA president, he also is not a good man and you would see how he treat John Edward.

All this is: Is a man (Kerry) standing up for another man (Obama). Have we all lost site of how important that is??? No wonder the Clinton's do so well…

I love the terms these guys can INVENT for calling
each other LIERS….

where i grew up "abusing the truth" was so much
more simply put: LIER !

and btw how low must mr. clinton be to be called
a LIER by mr. kerry…its the pot calling the POT black !

Uh Oh…another wheel came off the Clinton machine.

I think Kerry Was out of touch with reality in 2004 and again in 2008. All Kerry want is another Republican in the white house and make our country suffer for another 4 years. Kerry is a loser and who listen to him. No one listen to him when he was talking for himself, who cares when he talk for someone else. Let Hilery and Obama run this compaign the way they want. If Kerry want he cant answer about Swift Boat now.

“When Clinton and others on the left attack Obama over this interview, they are only demonstrating why we need a change.”

Amen to that!

i don't like the clintons or obama as far as politics goes, but it's pretty obvious that the opportunistic flip flopper is looking for a spot as v.p.

What does "abusing the truth" mean?

If Kerry is so "concerned" about the truth – why did he tell congress Vietnam Vets were a bunch of rapers and murderers?

He's a proven Liar along with his Traitor Bud Hanoi Jane Fonda

Vietnam Vet 173rd Airborne Bde 68-69

If Hillary wins he could say I was for Obama before I was against him????

Kerry is hardly an authority on the truth. BUT it is astonishing watching the first black president orchestrate the slandering of the man who could actually be the first black president. While the Clintons pretend to be advocates for African-Americans, they have their campaign continually bring up drug use, slum lords and most wonderfully "that Obama will win in SC because it's a black state". Even the biggest moonbats must be uncomfortable with this.

The Democrats are imploding.

I don't get you demos. First, you cannot win against an unpopular president (that's what CNN says) during an unpopular war. Now, you try, repeat, try to nominate an unelectable Hillary, who is doing all sorts of damage to someone who might make an OK president, running against a Tax and Spend liberal. Why not nominate Dean and just be done with the election, instead of just going on and on destroying yourselves through a slow death. Looks like another republican in the office!

Are the demo powers just stupid, or arrogant? Out of touch and arrogant!

Normally I don't agree with Kerry, but he was right on about this. Go Obama!

Guess what? Kerry did turn out to be flip flop as Bush had accused him to be. Did he forget that Clintons had campaigned for him when he was running for president? Where was Obama at that time?

Hey bigdawg.. .he has been answering the questions but he shouldn't be, the Clinton's questions are like the old “have you stopped beating your wife yet", it doesn't matter how he answer the question is intended to make you look bad, this is basic Clinton 101. Finally the left get to see what most reasonable people have known all along, the Clintons are power hungry, duplicitous, unprincipled, ruthless, devious, and corrupt. We need them for another 4 year?…wake-up people.

Finally, John F. Kerry says something worthwhile. Hopefully he'll keep saying it. I'm surprised CNN (Clinton News Network) didn't censor his comments.

Now I know why John Kerry is fighting for Obama because he wants to be his VP and which will never happen. Anyways, Kerry picked Edwards as his VP and Edwards disgraced him and now he moving over to Obama to salvage is defeat so that loosers keeps good company.

John Kerry wanted both clintons to help him run for office when it was his turn but suddenly he's anti-clinton. SHUT UP KERRY and get a life!

Just what this nation needs Bush Clinton Bush Clinton. And they think they are agents for change. Fact is her negatives are 58% among independents. Even as a Democrat I dont like her and well Bill, I used to like him..now im not so keen on him.
Once again the Dems are shooting themselves in the foot. We could have had Obama.. maybe we still can.

I love seeing Bill do this, diminishing his undeserved stature and tarnishing his joke of a legacy. Keep it up, Billy Boy!

BILLARY = LIES, DECEPTION, POWER PLAYING, MANIPULATING, CHEATING…….
Basically, not what Democrats should be about. Shame on the Clintons for brining our party down into the mud!!!!!

Obama 08!!!!!!!!!

Who cares what Kerry thinks. He obviously doesn't know how to win an election. Why isn't the Obama camp telling him to pipe it down?

The unholy warmongering alliance of multinational corporates / neo-con ideologues / financial industry / military industry / bigoted zionists will do everything to silence and discredit Kerry: his anti-war imperialist war message just might rekindle the progressive movement…

Thanks to Bush who has made everyone's color show clear. We might be getting closer to hitting the bottom, so that we could get it right this time.

The elephant in the room is the attacks the GOP will haul out on Team Clinton. Since BIll is running as faux Co-President his ethical lapses will all be front and center and unless he recedes to the background fast, Hillary Clinton will have 50%+ negatives by the general election. Obama has not touched any of the obvious material.

Well, Well what kind of a Democrat do we have in you Mr. Kerry? You sure do have a short memory sir. You of all people should know what unjust malignment feels like, I know you didn,t like the Swiftboat fiasco now did you? Man am I ever glad they sacked you, where were the feathers and tar? Your good fortune Mr. Kerry,held up I suppose. Mr. I will spend a good while thinking of a way to retire you. The wife is working well enough, but i'm sure she needs some additional help. The least I will do is the most popular thing down South, "don't buy Heinz, ever."
If I sound terrible Mr. Kerry it's because this situation you helped set up turned me this way. I am glad you lost however, you are dumber than ole Hallygeorge. You have ruined my day.

Ben from Columbus. You say Clinton has actually done something for African Americans.

FACT. More African Americans went to prison for life under laws created by Bill Clinton than any other time in history.

FACT. More blacks were killed in Africa through military operations (Somalia) directed by Bill Clinton than any other time in history.

FACT. More blacks were prevented from entering the U.S. (via Haiti) and drowned at sea through operations directed by Bill Clinton than any other time in history.

Whatever you think Bill Clinton has done for blacks is smoke and mirrors – and lies.

the joke's on liberals. liberals cannot, cannot tell the truth. period!! and if anyone thinks otherwise, just think grand jury!! dirt bags!

There is still time for the Clintons to do something unselfish for their party and their country. Hillary should drop out of the campaign and give her full support to Obama.

Even Kerry can be right once in a while. The Clintons are really showing their "dark side", and the public is sick of them.
Hillary has no charisma nor charm, is a screeching hag of a speaker, and Bill is just a red-faced confirmed perjurer trying to pick fights everywhere, as IF this could help Hillary's campaign. It's not helping her, but it does help the public see their true nature. A couple of carpetbaggers who have see the end and don't like it.

It looks like democrats are finally realizing what republicans learned long ago–the Clintons will do and say anything to achieve what they want, regardless of the consequences. I must admit I never really believed what the republicans of the 90s said about the Clinton's but it's turning out to be spot on. Increasingly it's obvious that Hillary wants to be President regardless of what she has to do or who she has to destroy in the process. Their subtle use of race to divide the democratic electorate is appalling. They are portraying Obama as the Black candidate for the democratic nomination in an "us vs them" manner. Look at Obama's support amongst white voters in South Carolina over the past week — he's down to 10% from around 25-30%

They're telling outright lies about Obama. Everyone says that voters can see through the lies in political campaigns but I'm not so sure. Remember this is the country where some 40% of the population still believes Saddam had something to do with 9/11. Furthermore, Bill Clinton is a former US President. There is not a single person alive today that carries as much weight as he does when he speaks. All this puts Obama in an impossible position.

Hillary will get the nomination and in the process destroy the democratic party. She'll lose in November and the country will be looking at 4-8 more years of republican rule.

After all the lying and backbiting from the Clintons, I would vote republican than vote for Hillary.

2 Reasons for our Economic Mess

1. NAFTA – Clinton
2. THE IRAQ WAR – Bush

We are really under bondage to these 2 families.

Colene – what a great description of Hillary -

"THE TONYA HARDING OF POLITICS"!

Obama better watch out – Hillary may clock him with a hubcap!

"If she's elected it will be the biggest shakeup that Washington has even known. She's tough, she's got heart, and she's smart. She should win the presidency because of these qualities"

Um, the Clintons are the quintessential insiders… they are in bed with some of the same interests the other side is.. and some even worse ones to boot. As for having intelligence and drive, sociopaths with law degrees have these qualities. Intelligence and ambition are not character or wisdom… as these two show.

I am really disappointed by the attacks on Hillary Clinton. Her candidacy is clearly more of a historic event than Obama's, as America has never had a female president, despite having had a female majority for many decades. I believe it is time for a majority candidate and Hillary is the only one running! She also has more relevant and greater experience!

What you say a Clinton abusing the truth… "Did not inhale" and "Did not have sexual relations" are two that come to mind.

As an independent voter I have never voted for a Republican but if MaCain and Clinton run then the choice is obvious it will be MaCain. Its time for some new blood at the helm no more Bush or Clinton.

Tired of the Nepotism? We have had 20 years of Clinton-Bush. America is ready for Change.

you know i have listened to alot of clinton backers and you know what bill and hill r playing right into the republicans hands, you keep it up hill and all you will do is give the republicans ammo and they will use it to win the whitehouse in november and then we r screwed

I am sure Kerry meant well but I don't think saying that the former president

abused the TRUTH was a poor choice of words. He could have done a better

job of defending Obama for abuse period. I hope Hillary doesn't win. Can you

imagine what influence he will have on her. Not good.

2 words……"CATTLE FUTURES"

2 more…….."WHITE WATER"

Nuff said!

Kerry, stay out of this. Everyone is saying to both candidates to dial the negativity back. Why is Kerry jumping into this at this late hour?

I am very sorry for Mr. Obama, I would rather have anybody besides Mr. Kerry on my side. Who knows, in a few days he may even endorse Bill Clinton himself!

Bill Clinton.

Impeached for being a liar.

Disbarred from law for being liar.

And still there are those who think he may have something honest to say.

Wait a few minutes. Kerry may waffle on this one.

Who cares what Kerry says? He's a loser. Hilary and Obama are both doing what it takes to win. He attacked her, about being a Walmart Corporate Lawyer, and she striked back. Kerry and Obama should stop whinning and respond the attack.

Kerry refusal to adequately respond to Bush's Swift Boat led to his defeat. The Clintons have lots of vulnerabilities.

Kerry wants a Veep nod.

Right…I care what Kerry thinks..These idiots are going to another Republican in the white house. Maybe the Dems deserve it, but the country doesn't. I guess if the independent party gets big enough it might make a difference some day. Kerry needs to go home and retire. He already has enough money…

This is just a micro view of what the country will get if the "Clintons" are elected. Scandals, personal attacks, lies and corruption just like in the '90s. I'm a conservative but I think Obama is basically a good person. I disagree with Obama's stand on the issues but he would probably be a good honest president if elected. I hope Obama crushes them. These "Clintons" are swine of the lowest level. The "Clintons" should run for election in Mexico or Venezuala which is more their speed.

I wonder what high ranking government position Obama has promised Kerry if he is nominated & elected.

I'll guarantee you– if Hillary Clinton turns out to be the Democratic nominee, John Kerry will do an about-face so fast it will make your head spin. He'll be singing her praises far & wide.

[This goes for the GOP talking heads too-- who they support today & who they'll support next week is open to change at any moment.]

I supported Kerry in his run for President, but politic are politics, and you have to take whatever he (or most any other politician) says, and then look at the big picture to figure out what is really happening.

If Obama loses the nomination, Kerry will be waving adios to him and hello to Hillary in a heartbeat.

Everybody needs to face facts. All these candidates have things in their past that can be deemed as negative. They all need to clean up their campaigns and focus on the issues. The one thing the Democratic Party needs to be aware of is a possible riff within the party wants a candidate is determined.
