Apparently, Hillary PROMISED them that she will NOT participate in the process in FL. Seeing her celebrate a win, the people in NH said they feel like "the Clintons have played them for suckers.""" CAN ANYONE EVER TRUST THE CLINTONS??????? If you need Obama's specific plans for the nation, please write to them and they will send you the related packet!

But then on the other hand I guess if you like hand outs and the government holding your hand you would vote for the other four Republicans. I never thought I'd see the day I would vote for Hillary but I think I'll do what the MSM wants if McCain, Huckabee, Romney, or Guiliani win the nomination----I'll vote for Hillary. I think the MSM has sold us out knowing there is no way any of these four canidates can beat Hillary or Obama. Thank you MSM.

You bet they won't, but they'll have to argue with the voters on that one.
