May I say 'Touche'

There is a comment about the Clinton's' doubling up and look at the quad squad yesterday for Barack Obama. Please no more Clinton bias. Obama seems to have a celebrity following. At the very least folks, can we play fair? I hope so. Senator Clinton is a wonderful woman who has dedicated her life for the greater good and some of the comments CNN has allowed which I have found extremely offensive towards Senator Clinton is cruel and nasty. Lighten up folks.

I hate to say it but Maria's right and Arnold is wrong, or should I say, "wong!"

This is no surprise. Mr Ambiguous gets another endorsement from another blue blooded washington insider. Barack started off sounding so different, but now has yet to clearly state a policy specific, and keeps hanging out with old established insiders.

Who cares if Maria endorses anymore than Teddy, Caroline, or Oprah. You know what they have ever done to directly affect my family? None of them have an idea of how hard it is to raise a family or make a living now, if they ever did…..

Again, it won't help.

In history, this is the first real change to WhiteHouse! Lets vote for OB!

The Michelle Obama "ralley"?!?!?

GO HILLARY!!

Disgusting!

Sorry folks we can not recapture Camalot. Jack and Jacquie are both gone. Obama is no JFK no matter who tries to convince me otherwise. Carolines' father was the one, the only JFK. She said "other people" told her, he reminded them of her father. Who were these others? She was too young, too and protected by her mother. How could she be so easily led astray. Now Ethel says he reminds her of RFK. Is he RFK or JFK. They were two different people? I know he keeps referring to himself as JFK, never heard him mention RFK. How can a self proclaimed JFK get so many people to believe him? Well, there is the Jim Jones factor. Some people can convince others of anything. We all want to believe in Fairytales. We live in the real world. Rezko,Exelon,voting present and then on the Iran issue he was absent. Can't have a lot of wrong votes if you miss so many of them. Wouldn't it be something if he did not carry Illinois. I'm sure the Rezko indictment is playing big there. We don't even know if he would have won re-election, he has only ran for Senator one time. Maria, well she just came from a horse show, looking rode hard and put away wet.

It doesn't matter who endorses who or what the polls state. Most people have already made up their minds long before all these debates and endorsements. This country is ready for a change all right. We need a woman in the office, that will be a major change. Electing Obama is a change but not as much as electing a woman for the first time as president of a great country such as the United States of America. Go Hillary.

The FACT is this—– Watch Fox News ( I know it is hard) but the canidate the GOP does not want to see is Hillary…………They are obsessed with her—-Obama experience (lack of) will be the focal point………remember the last two elections GW and the terror propaganda machine——people buy it——That is THE fact…. Obama will not be treated with kid gloves in the general election

Strong, independent, intelligent woman speaks from her heart, joining other
strong, independent women endorsing Obama. I'm on board

You have not seen one of the endorsers from the Senate has yet to speak on Obama behalf this includes Kerry and Kennedy, this should tell you something.
Just talk and image again from these old hanging on Democrates.
Vote substance. Vote for Obama will be a vote for the Republican, sad reality.

Insulting people!!!!! No…I just refuse to re-write history…..or forget

Hillary is toast! Dont waste your vote on her. She will not win in a general election. FACT!

SO what if the media is anti-Hillary. Hillary is anti-everyone else.

Obama is the choice of the people.

I posted a comment in regard to endorsement several days ago on CNN and MSNBC and neither one made it out of moderation. I am going to condense it here, but it will give you some idea of the unfairness by the media. State govenors, 9 to 6 for Clinton. Four of the six are red states . Senators, 11 to six for Clinton. I am telling you that Obama can not win and some of you democrats out there are being led wrong when you hear all this baloney that this republican and this so caaled independent is going to vote for Obama. . Why are you letting some republicans decide our democratic candidate.

Actually, James Recto, Maria Shriver has been a Democrat all her life.

NOW FRANK, WHY DON'T YOU TELL ME IF LAURA BUSH HAS EVEN TRIED TO DO ANYTHING FOR THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA WHILE HER HUSBAND HAS BEEN IN OFFICE, AS HILLARY TRIED TO DO AS FIRST LADY.

BESIDES ELEANOR ROOSEVELT, HILLARY CLINTON IS THE ONLY FIRST LADY WHO ACTUALLY WORKED FOR THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA, WHILE HER HUSBAND HELD THE PRESIDENCY."

Hillary was much more than the :first lady". She was co-president. Remember 2 for the Price of one????
Laura Bush and Elenor Roosevelt, both discharged their duties as "first lady" Hillary, by her own admission tried to "share" the presidency with the "Elected" President!!!!
Anybody "familiar" with the Clinton years knows Hillary was "first" lady in name only!!!!
"

I feel the media is anti-Hillary. They have really given her a beating, plus not reporting much about her. Many things have been 'suggested' about her that are simply not true. FOX for example has really played dirty.

You're free to care or not care about endorsements as you see fit. However, going around insulting people who endorse someone besides your candidate is just petty and sad.

Go, Barack! He's caught up in some polls, leading in others.

And they keep saying we can't….

YES. WE. CAN.

I hope that people will not be distracted by the endorser who have their own agenda. I hope people will vote for the candidate who will be the best to solve America's economic and political problems – I believe that candidate is Hillary Clinton

I agree strongly with canadian cate, and joywinnebago we are idolizing a candidate a cheerleader. He may be nice, but there is no substance. Also, I have been posting to CNN and other news stations however, they do not want to hear that they are preferencial. My husband used to be a journalist and left his profession because of the bias. I do not feel represented by Obama, if I want inspiration, I receive it at my church. Also, I really hope, that the people are going to be voting on issues and not on famous endorsements, that does not give me a job nor health insurance.

Go Hillary

The weman like this man, because they have seen something good in him. Weman lke good person. someone who will respect them, love them, help them in every ways and pripvide jobs for their children. They like someone who can make right decision. That is the key, look at it you need someone to talk to when there is a difficult issue and you need someone that will tell the right thing. That is Obama, he will tell you the right thing.
Hillary should be Obama vice they will win big comes November and both weman and men will pour in their support.
Nominate Obama
Obama 08!

Gee it took her 20 years to make friends and people like him so much it only takes a couple of days? don't forget their are people out there who HATE HILLARY, do we really want 4 more years of our elected officials fighting among themselves or would we like Obama to reach across the aisle and get something done?

Corey- Last night NPR made the announcement, even had a link on their site stating that (which I had posted a few replies above your question) but now the link no longer works, nothing can be found on NPR either. I guess they jumped the gun or were wrong. No idea. I'm rather annoyed actually.

Well……Obama record as a state senator is VERY strange…….over 100 "present" votes……due to little problems with the bill………. A great way to not be on the wrong side of the vote……….

I dont think its reasonable celebrities should be stumping all over the place for a candidate to get them elected.

Oprah knows she cant just con people into voting. She is targeting the easiest group to con with HYPE. Young people.

After seeing Maria Shriver give that speech yesterday… that speech that was allegedly off the cuff… that speech where she claimed to have arrived at the arena all haggard looking because she was out at riding lessons earlier… that speech where she compared Obama the candidate to California the state… THAT speech… It makes me wonder why Obama needs all these celebrity endorsers to stump for him. If he was 1/2 as persuasive as Oprah, would he need her to hit the circuit?

At any rate, after being bombarded with ads, the constant news coverage, the myriad endorsement announcements, and much soul searching, this California household has come to a decision.

We're voting Hillary on Tuesday.

The Kennedys have had 45 years to "make change" as they put it. Obama certainly has a way with words but this country needs more than words. We need someone who has the knowledge to get things done and that's HILLARY.

GO HILLARY!!

We watched that

The Kennedys are a joke and people have learned that over the years. Anyone with that many Kennedys behind cannot be trusted and you add the other obvious baggage means no chance for him. Hillary will win by a landslide!

CNN is strictly in the Obama camp. They refuse to list my comments about how Obama is full of hot air and will take our country to a third world status.

I agree with Demo8 and California voter..all negative comments on Obama/Oprah disappear

I guess thats a nice endorsement, but what has Maria Schriver ever done for the nation?
Like her cousin Caroline, she is another do nothing Kennedy.
Obama and his supporters keep slamming the Clintons as being a political dynasty, and then who do they go crawling to for help – the most worthless political dynasty in American history. The family of murdering Ted Kennedy, drunken rapist Smith, murderer Skakel, I dont know how many drug overdoses and drunken football on the ski slopes. This family should be called the first family of bad behaviour and NO ONE should want their endorsement.

I don't hate Obama nor do I hate Obama supporters. I do feel sorry for them, especially after reading some of these comments. Hillary clearly won on every question in this last debate with the exception of what the media touts and overplays…the Iraq war. It's not about a vote that only 23 senators voted against, it's about who is the least reckless in ending this war going forward. Senator Kerry voted the same way as Hillary!LOL YOU DON'T TELL THE ENEMY OF A DATE CERTAIN WHEN YOU WILL "GUARANTEE" TO HAVE THE TROOPS HOME. PERIOD. Maria said it best "I see a dreamer, and a leader". Sorry, but only the first half of this statement is reality at this crucial time.

As a Republican, the Terminator can not easily endorse a Democrat and that is the reason why he asked the wife to go forth and endorse Obama because that is absolutely the Candidate the Terminator wants as President. Come on People, try to read the writings on the Wall.

Go Obama!!!

Most of you Obama supporters really sound like morons. I cannot believe you people are so excited over endorsements, yet you don't even really know what your candidate stands for, besides change. What change, that he's black? It's so ridiculous! It's the same thing with Hillary Clinton, don't vote for her because she's a woman… vote for her because she is the BEST candidate who can turn this country around. If Obama wins the DEM nomination, he will NEVER win the general election. He is not JFK, he is not MLK, he's just an empty suit that can read a good pre-written speech. It's just so frustrating what is going on here.

I can't stand Maria -my vote goes to Hillary

Frank…whatever you are implying about Arnold…he CAnnot be President by law

I still keep saying those of you who claim Hilary has got the so called Experience, where were her experiences when she was voting for the war in Iraq and is today regretting.

The President of America is not only for the interest of America but for the World…. come on people give me a break… You Fans of Hilary should take a glance around the World. From Asia ( Japan, China etc etc ) to Africa, in the Middle East ( Iraq, Afghanistan etc ) which we know is the greatest challenge of the next President, right over here in Europe ( Germany, England, Holland etc etc ) where i am base it's Obama. All around the world people are watching this Election and have listen to the Candidates talk. Obama is the cry of everybody around the world. Those in the Middle East need peace in their region and they are optimistic Obama can bring that Peace.

Lets not vote a Candidate because She did this or that 8 years ago. What makes you believe Obama won't double what ever she did in the past. White House is not a Monarchy, give way for others to do big things. Obama has good objectives and anybody voting against him is simply because of his gender or race. There's absolutely no reason to turn him down, he has good records and has been a good Patriot.

Those of us in Europe are very proud of those white voters who are solidly behind Obama. It tells us that there are good people out there who are ready to fight this racist disease and are ready to face the truth for a better America. Even if Obama doesn't end up being the nominee, we will never forget this historic moment in Americas Politic.

God Bless you all

To the thinking person with the gut – you should be asking yourself why the very personal friends of Hillary who have the experience of working with her and know her the best would prefer to endorse Obama rather than Hillary? How many of the senior senators who know both very well, prefer Obama?

when Hillary talks about cleanups, makes wonder if the USA has turned into a kingdom with two dynasties, each leading at an eight years interval. dear Americans, think and reason with yours brains because your vote matter in the whole world.may the 08 elections help you reach another step in the heights of democracy and success.

And my Gut tells me to go with Obama !

This is not a Monarchy this is a Republic!!!!

OBAMA 08,12

No More BUSHS' OR CLINTONS'

So Clinton is copying the Mantra word "yes we can". She is proving again and again that she is a follower not a leader.

Think people. Stop voting for sensationalism. Think experience. Our country is in too much turmoil to vote in a Rookie.
Go Hillary!!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA is going to be the next President of the United States..and he will be a great one….why because he inspires people…….to be better than their selves…Hillary thinks she's owed….and thats the said part once you think it's supposed to yours is the moment you start to lose it…..and there will not be a Obama/Clinton ticket….back to the senate…then maybe she will do something worth while…because she will have no aspirations for higher office…..Obama 08

Call it what you will, I am so proud of the Obama campaign who totally are dominating the media cycle,
Its not by accident trust me
Mark my words they are going to be some shockers come super tuesday and beyond

Obama has more real experience.

Obama is in his 11th year as an elected officeholder – eight years in the Illinois state senate, followed by three as a U.S. senator. Clinton is in her seventh year of elected office.

Just because she was first lady does not give her more experience!

Endorsements are meaningless – anyone who bases their vote on what these policitians and celebrities do does not deserve the vote.

They have one vote just like you and I.

Hmm. I usually hire someone based on their experience and track record and not on how they speak. Obama will say anything and do anything to get this nomination…kinda contradicts his post SC speach motto. GO HILLARY!

Is Cnn trying to win this thing for Obama? They have turned into Fox News it seems. I thought the media was supposed to be un-biased in their reporting. If Obama gets the nod, It would only confirm my beleif that the the American People have been sold on this Obama guy who only seems to have words. HE IS A USED CAR SALESMAN PEOPLE!!!!!!!!! HE WILL DANGLE THIS CARROT OF HOPE AND CHANGE IN FRONT OF YOU AND YOU WILL NEVER GET IT!! WAKE UP!!!

i am for Obama , go Obama go.
We are fed up with Clinton-Bush for 24 years.
may Obama helps us to break down thesesdynasties that have broken Washinston for years and years.

Obama seems to be trying to make freinds and buy them in a matter of days. Unlike Hillary who has earned them thru hard work and dedication over the last 20 years! HMMMMMM I dunno, I gues I'll have to go with my Gut!

Obama seems to be trying to make freinds in a matter of days. Unlike Hillary who has developed them thru hard work and dedication over the last 20 years!

What gets me more then anything is the women that think they have to vote for Clinton because she is a women. Hillary is a very poor example of a strong woman.

Maria , Michelle , Caroline ,Oprah

That is what strong woman look like. They do the right and honorable thing , even when its hard and maybe un-popular.

Lets face it , Hillary Clinton divides this country worse then George Bush , and The "CLINTONS" take the word scandal to a whole new level.

If your happy with a House divided and a do nothing congress , i can understand why your voting for more Clinton scandals in the "People's White House".

But if you want to see our elected leaders come together and actually get something done for this country , I HAVE ONE WORD FOR YOU.

OBAMA

"I like these endorsements for one reason: seeing Hillary's supporters' reactions. Had these individuals endorsed her instead of Obama the string of comments would be "a fine choice," or "she shows incredible insight and integrity." Since they did not, however, they look more like "who cares?" or "this means absolutely nothing." You keep telling yourself that. Look at Hillary herself and the fact that she's been touting RFK Jr.'s endorsement because she sees so many of the Kennedys gravitate toward Obama. It's even the first story on her website!

Something else I thought was interesting was the fact that Hillary, in a recent stump speech, said that we can't elect "more of the same," yet she claims her biggest strength is experience. Hopefully I don't have to explain how incredibly hilarious this is. Her new oxymoronic slogan should be "Elect experience, but not someone who's experienced."

Exactly

I am sincerely stunned by the animosity expressed by Clinton Supporters. I would expect that kind of empty disdainful rhetoric from the other side of the table, but from fellow liberals and democrats? It stinks to me of people who get the majority of their information from pundits, snippets, and sound bites (hypocritically and ironically enough) The man has two best selling books that expresses more of a mature progressive policy than has ever been seen in a viable contender for the presidency. And as for all of you who are cynical about the power of Rhetoric….I have no response other than that 30 million inspired Americans can get much more done than one man or woman, no matter how loud their bullhorn is.

WHY DO ALL YOU CLINTONITES SOUND SO ANGRY ALL THE TIME??? I'VE BEEN IN ALOT OF BLOG PAGES AND I SWEAR I'VE NEVER WITNESSED SUCH ANGST PEOPLE IN MY LIFE!!!! AND IT'S AS IF ALL YOU GUYS SHARE THIS 'BACK OF THE LINE MENTALLITY' WHEN IT COMES TO OBAMA 'OH HE DOESNT HAVE THE EXPERIENCE SO HE SHOULD JUST WAIT' YEP ITS THAT KIND OF TALKING THAT KEEPS EVRYBODY SUPPRESSED. I WISH YOU GUYS WOULD JUST LOOK AT THE FACT THAT HISTORY IS ABOUT TO BE MADE SO STOP FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WITH ALL THE BITTIRNESS AND SOUR GRAPES AND ACT LIKE ADULTS AND AMERICANS!!!!!!!! MAN I HOPE CNN PRINTS THIS IN A HURRY!!!!!!

Explain to me how someone claiming to be different from "old politics" is running of the backs of the Kennedy's. "I'm not old Washington, i'm just drawn that way"

Obama is going to shock the world , Maria is what a strong woman looks like , and he is going to take Califonia.

People want Washington to change there ways and actually get something done for a change. The Clinton's are bad for this country any way you look at it.

Turn the page

YES WE CAN

********************************************************************************
OBAMA WAS GETTING SYMPATHY WHEN HE SAID THAT HE IS RUNNING AGAINST TWO CLINTONS…..

NOW OBAMA IS GETTING SUPPORT FROM LEADING DEMOCRATS; POWERFUL UNIONS , MOST OF THE MEDIA AND STILL MRS HILLARY CLINTON IS NOT COMPLAINING…

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

All of you that keep claiming Obama supporters are not using our brains, in essence, represent exactly the problem with Hillary. She is an icon of the mean divisive politics that Obama decries. The legacy of the Clintons includes the crippling of the Demcratic party over the past 14 years.

The Clinton's were elected in 92 with a mandate to bring healthcare reform. The electorate gave them everything to get if done. A democratic congress coupled with vast public support. The Clinton's squandered this opportunity, the electorate punished the democrats for it by ushering in 14 years of destructive GOP rule. The Clinton's were good enough politicians to guard their own positions but sacrificed party strength in the process.

The party is so weak they dare not respond to the will of the of the American people. Worse than that they refuse to uphold the Constitution. This kind of fear is exactly what Michelle Obama addressed in her speech. Fear of losing a political fight to the Republicans even in their weakened state. Fear stops us from doing what is clearly right. Obama sees this and offers another way.

I am a Hil supporter. It is fine that various famous people are endorsing Obama, but I wish that the press would state all those who have endorsed Clinton. Their are various other senators besides Kerry/Kennedy who have endorsed Clinton, but you dont see that in the press, do you?

I am tired of the Clinton/Bush Dynasty. We are not a third world country were presidential power is held by a couple of familes. This is America. A perception to think about is at the Obama rallies the chant is "yes WE can!" At the Clinton rallies it's "yes SHE can!" Some one needs to clue her in … it's "WE THE PEOPLE..NOT I AM HILLARY." The Clinton record..yes both of them is mired in scandal and corruption.

Let's do a recap of the candidate's spouse:

Bill Clinton: impeached, disbarred, predatory, egomaniac, wants 3rd term, liar and has his taudry affairs exposed on National TV.

Michelle Obama: smart, articulate. professional, value based thinking, appears to respect her marriage, supportive, realizes key point: she would not be the president.

NO DECISION TO MAKE HERE…GO OBAMA..YES WE CAN!

I cannot stand Bill Clinton.
I do not believe a word, he is a big time cheater.
How could you trust him?(Remember Buy one get one free)
They will do anything and say anything to get back to the house.
Go OBAMA 08

Maria looks hot for a woman in her fifties. More and more women of all stripes and backgrounds are coming out in support of the best PERSON for the White House.

08AMA!!!08AMA!!!08AMA!!!08AMA!!!08AMA!!!08AMA!!!08AMA!!!08AMA!!!

Rob…did you read about your BO on the front page of the NY Times. Find a 1st grader and have her read it to you.

Thanks for the laughs….really…BO is not needed in the Oval Office. Let's just keep BO in IL where he's can be close to the $$$$$ guys, slum lords, and god knows what else!!!

Clinton 08—THE ONLY CHOICE

Hillary!!!! will win anayway…..

I'd rather have Robert Kennedy Jr's endorsement over Oprah's anyday!

*** it's the president's job to make concrete progress behind closed doors, just as hillary's done all her life. ***

Are you talking about all those closed doors when she was putting together the disastrous Clinton healthcare plan? Those closed doors?

*** Unless they were to change the legislation, Arnold is not eligible to be president. Please educate yourself. ***

Legislation is not involved — it would take a Constitutional amendment. Please educate yourself.

*** Any idea when CNN is going to report that Bill Richardson endorsed Clinton today? If they have already, I must be completely blind. ***

They haven't reported it because no such thing in fact occured. Typical Clinton supporter — has to make stuff up to make her look good.

To all you Obama haters out there. Ask yourselves this question– If Oprah, Maria Shriver, Caroline Kennedy, and Ted Kennedy were to endorse Hillary do you think she would downplay it? NOT!!! It's ok to support your candidate, but just give credit when credit is due. This man has inspired many. When was the last time you saw these people endorse ANYONE? That just goes to show you the power of Obama.

And to all of those talking about a Clinton/Obama ticket, give it up. Hillary supporters realize all of the buzz that Obama is creating and want to ride on his wave. NOT going to happen. If you want real change, stop being scared and vote for a REAL candidate like Barack Obama.

NEW YORK GIANTS WON SUPER BOWL !!
UPSET ? CAN'T WAIT FOR SUPER TUESDAY SO HILLARY CAN TAKE
BACK TO NEW YORK THE STRENGTH,COURAGE & A BIG WIN FROM
CALIFORNIA WHERE WE BELIEVE IN HER & HER EXPERIENCE.
NO MOBAMA THE TRAIN HAS WRECKED !!
************* HILLARY YOU GO GIRL ************
WE LOVE YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please don't vote for someone based on their endorsements.

Please don't vote for someone based on their race or gender.

Please don't vote for someone based on the job their spouse did as President.

none of these are relevant.

Hillary is the answer to the myriad of problems that our next president will face. Obama is a wonderful speaker and who can argue with someone who espouses hope. But we need more than hope…we need someone who can understand our problems at home and abroad, who is knowledgeable about the facts, and who has substance. That is Hillary Clinton!! Obama would be a great VP…this way he can learn for 8 years and then go on to be president. Democrats would rule for the next 16 years…

I am totally amazed at the hateful comments that come from some of the Obama supporters. The names they call Hillary Clinton show how much respect they have for women. And this will unite our country.I don't think so!

Come on…….Are we electing a preacher or a president……Obama…..moving forward????? With Ted (the bridge ) Kennedy!!!!!!! He gets his feathers ruffled over Bills comments,,,, What will he do as president……Hillary has taken direct fire for years….STILL STANDING!!!!!

We are not allow Obama and josh22s do experiences using our country.
Obama should stop smoking and this is his frist change!
josh22, you need learn many things after you finish your school (i hope), and have to come out from your PC, DS, and PSP or Xbox.

GO Hillary!!!

I suppose Caroline Kennedy has met Barack Obama, but it must have only been recently, as she lives in New York and he in Chicago, and there is no mention of a prior friendship or working relationship in her endorsement. So, in effect, she knows him no better than any of us here who have read Obama's position papers and reviewed his public record. And we really don't know if she did, in fact, do her own investigation of his record and character or simply consulted or was advised by her uncle.

I find it insulting that Caroline Kennedy would use her father's star power to endorse a candidate because her children like him. Her children will never face what most of us face, decisions about which drugs we can do without because we can't afford rising drug costs, or which medical treatments we have to forego. She lives in the rarefied world of money and privilege and is no more qualified than I am to tell the world at large who will do more for America and who it should vote for. And the same is true of Maria Shriver. Please vote for the platform, or if you decide to vote for the personality, at least let it be the personality of the candidate.

Voters dont vote for people based on endorsements.

Voters vote for candidates that the media TELLS US TO.

After months of POUNDING, the media candidate will finally be embedded into your brain, and you will comply.

Its not about Oprah, or the Kennedys. Its about the MEDIA COVERAGE IT GETS.

Bill Clinton has done right staying on the campaign trail for Sen. Clinton. The economic successes of his presidency is a record that none of the Obama endorsers, even the entire Kennedy clan, can beat. These endorsers were either standing by, apathetic, or simply making hay during those times.

His record as president are the best credentials for an endorser. Former Pres. Clinton used what the opposite camp and the media call his "negotiating tactics" to put in place the groundworks of a strong economy. That George Bush bungled does not change that And no one can deny that his wife, Sen. Hillary Clinton, saw him though it all.

I like these endorsements for one reason: seeing Hillary's supporters' reactions. Had these individuals endorsed her instead of Obama the string of comments would be "a fine choice," or "she shows incredible insight and integrity." Since they did not, however, they look more like "who cares?" or "this means absolutely nothing." You keep telling yourself that. Look at Hillary herself and the fact that she's been touting RFK Jr.'s endorsement because she sees so many of the Kennedys gravitate toward Obama. It's even the first story on her website!

Something else I thought was interesting was the fact that Hillary, in a recent stump speech, said that we can't elect "more of the same," yet she claims her biggest strength is experience. Hopefully I don't have to explain how incredibly hilarious this is. Her new oxymoronic slogan should be "Elect experience, but not someone who's experienced."

Do you people honestly think, that if you elect a Clinton, things will be the way they were. Debbie is right, who do think signed NAFTA, which lead to our jobs being shipped overseas. Do your research, before you start talking. Yeah, that is what we need another Clinton in office to clean up after two Bushes and a Clinton. give me a BREAK!!!! My husband had layoffs continuously during the Clinton era. Don't think because your economy was good that everyone elses was also.

I seriously believe even mrs clinton becomes the president of US, mr clinton will be running the country !!! she can breakdown and cry when under election pressure, can she handle tremendous pressure being the commader-in-chief. Obama got the cutting to be the next president of USA.

Let all the psuedo fortune tellers endorse barrack HUSSEIN obama. He will not get my vote.

2008 IS A NEW YORK STATE YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am a californian but hands up to New York this year.

Why don't all the democrats wake up? Put Hillary in the white house for 8 years and by then Obama will have the experience to lead us for 8 more.

Shriver cannot even stand even with Arnold. Her endorsement is useless. Its too late, HILLARY has a strong vote foundation now, she started long way before and she will win it! I'm looking towards a Mc Cain/CLINTON debate! Let's move on….

I'll tell you what, I would vote for Michelle Obama over Hillary Clinton ! How could anyone who saw her speak today not be thoroughly impressed with her? She was outstanding, and would make an incredible first lady. All you undecideds out there, do yourself a favor, and give this woman a listen.

I am a stout Dem, but if Hillary gets the nomination, I won't vote for her unless she offers the VP to Obama. I witnessed her campaign in Nevada, and I don't think she knows how to play fair. She and Bill used questionable tactics – playing up racial tension, push polls that repeatedly mention her opponent as "Barack Hussein Obama", etc.

Obama 08! or Hillary/Obama 08! Or McCain 08! That sums up my vote. And I know many who share my view.

This is the beginning of the end for hillary. Obama is just picking momentum and enorsements;there's no stopping this guy! Hillary cannot go againt the wishes of these people….I hope she gets a graceful exit

Frank February 3, 2008 5:44 pm ET

There is more than meets the eye in this endorsement! Ever thought what her husband might be going for after his governorship is over in CA. Well, start guessing!!!!
________________________________________________________________

Unless they were to change the legislation, Arnold is not eligible to be president.

Please educate yourself.

We are so DEEP in debt now and even if the horde of white racists are overcome by Obamarama, he will be facing a problem for which there is no solution, our debt. And his election is 200 years or so too late for equality of the races. lol

Thank you Maria and God bless you.
You certainly made my day!

Obama '08 '12

THE PATRIOTS ENDOSED MITT ROMNEY….
CONGRATULATIONS LOOSERS….

I think a lot of people are hooked on on barack's sugar coating and sparkle. dig deeper everytime he speaks, and guess what… you're still wondering, 'but where's the substance?' all i hear is generic statements of hope etc etc etc. thats all very well, if there are real plans to back it up. the job at stake is not one of a motivational speaker, all though it helps. it's the president's job to make concrete progress behind closed doors, just as hillary's done all her life. although i admire obama greatly, in fact i've been torn between them, he should accept to be on the same ticket as hillary and the only way thats going to happen is to VOTE HILLARY. and thats unstoppable. not just my opinion, but expert concenus even among republicans. look it up, anywhere.

come on guys. lets have them both. vote hillary!

I could care less who Maria Shriver endorses. She, like Oprah, should just stop. All of this "Vote with your heart" crap needs to end. People need to vote with their minds, wake up, and realize that Barack Obama is full of hot air.

We need someone that has experience, yes. We also need someone who has a clear head about what they are doing, has shown they are a proven leader, someone that possesses more than just optimism, but, reality, as well. That person is Hillary Clinton. Rise up, America, and vote with your minds. Vote for who you KNOW will get the job done! Vote for Hillary Clinton.

Don't believe the lies of Oprah, the Kennedy's touting Barack Obama as another JFK, or anyone saying that he can unite America. That is the farthest thing from the truth. Only those who are blind, who can't think and see for themselves, believe that Barack Obama is a good choice. However, once you begin to look past the lies, past the "bandwagon" supporters, and look towards the truth, then you will see how blind you have been.

Hillary Clinton is the only candidate who will truly make a difference. Join me, and millions of American's across this great country, and vote for Hillary Clinton! Thank you.

Hillary Supporters–You can't have it both ways. Your candidate wants to be judged by her own merits. So you can't give her credit for prosperity during her husband's time as president.

THAT IS NOTHING ….
THE GIANTS
ENDORSED HILLARY CLINTON!!!!!!
IN GLENDALE ARIZONA..!

wow, all hillbots on here with cynicle remarks. One word, though. SCARED!!!!!!!

Good point on NAFTA. How ignorant of us to forget what was done under the
Clinton administration. And how about Hillary suggesting that it take a
Clinton to clean up after George Bush? Since when did they become the moral voice of America?

can't you see that the kennedy's buy the ticket for obama hussein bin ladin? what a change to the white house???????//

Amy, where did you hear that Richardson endorsed Hillary? I looked at every major news site and didn't see a thing about it.

don't hate It's time for a Black Pres. It's time for a change if she really wanted to change the way things are done in DC. Thay had 8 years to do it, IT DIDN'T . time for new blood.

Yet another great one for Obama!
Why is people have such short memories? The financial "good times" of the Clinton year was due 100% to the dot com and tech surges. It took a few years for the real damage Clinton did to our economy to show up. NAFTA destroyed this country. Why do you think it is that every time you need to reach a call center you hear a voice that barely speaks English. Thank you Bill Clinton! All of our products are now made in China and if you have a question about your Visa or Master Card you talk to someone in India. Thank you Bill Clinton. He took all our decent jobs and sent them overseas.
We have had more than enough Clinton to last us forever.
No more dynasty in America
Change is coming and it's name is Barack Obama

This the time for New Yorkers
New York Giant won super bowl
New Yorker will win the supper Tuesday

Way to go Maria.I like Hillary but it makes me sick to think that Bill would be back in the peoples' house.His presence there would just drudge up all the old memories of the famous blue dress,the impeachment and the meaning of what is is.He did well while he was in office all of 6 1/2 years of two 4 year terms.The rest of the time it was a soap opera.It was mostly all about him trying to out fox Ken Star and the American people of an illict affair conducted in the white house.One forgives but is so hard to forget. My heart just couldn't take it again.Go OBAMA '08!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Hillary supporters take a clue; the Giants, the underdogs came from behind and just won the super bowl despite the powers and the advantages of the long time front runners, the Patriots.

As you can see from the polls lately, Obama is steadly gaining momentum and he is on track to route Hillary and win the nominee.

Please, those of you who don't know the significance of those endorsements, these ladies are not just celebrities but brilliant women in their own right and advocates for the causes of women. They woudn't endorse someone they didn't feel deeply about. They don't have to do this. It's not the same as Paris or Britney endorsing Obama.
That's why this is big news and this matters to women everywhere.

Give credit where credit is due. Many of the people who are endorsing Barack Obama would have normally not endorsed anyone. But Obama has what it takes to be a very inspirational leader and can give the USA finally a repected status in the world. All the rest are just greedy politicians. Well, except for war-monger McCain. When one person can raise that much money, that much loyalty, that much interest in politics…there's your leader. Hillary is running on name recognition only. If she was a true fighter for insurance and women's rights….how come WalMart is still the worst company in the world for the lack of such things. Why didn't she stand up for that when she was on the board of directors? Why didn't she use her influence with her WallyWorld friends all this time?

Obama has actually more "experience" than Hillary when it comes to politics. He spent many years as Illinois Senator (no other candidate has state experience) as well as almost the same time as US Senator. Hillary's only governmental experience is that as Junior Senator the same as Obama. So when the media keeps talking about Hillary's experience…don't forget her corporate Board of Directors experience on WalMart. She's stretching the "experience" part.

How is it that Hillary and her camp like to say endorsements don't matter when Obama gets endorsements while Clinton and her camp keeps lobbying for endorsements? Oh yea, this is the Clinton way of doing business.

During the debate Hillary demonstrated that she is prepared to be the President of the United States. Obama is simply not prepared to discuss his plans for the Presidency in an intelligent and well thought out manner. He seems to take away Hillarys thunder by speaking of "dreams etc". This will not cut it nor will it take this country in the direction that we need to go in.

We need a strong President, and hands down there is only one choice "Hillary for President".

Obama has created a streak of excitement, however that is all it is "hot air". He can't get the job done. Hillary has my vote!!!!!!!

Note: the endorsements mean nothing. Hoopla that's all it is. It is unfortunate that we can not rely on the Media to provide us with unbiased reporting on this election as I agree that they are biased and favoring Obama. When have you ever heard of reporters explaining that Obama would have responded to Hillarys comments during the debate regarding her comment "It will take another Clinton to clean up the White House". A CNN reporter stated that it was unfair because we went to commercials and Obama could not respond. However, had he had an opportunity to respond he would have said "blah blah blah…"

Give me a BREAK!!! Stop sticking up for him and let them fight their own battles. Obama is a big boy and should be able to defend himself. It's ridiculous!!!!!!!

Why isn't this FRONT PAGE NEWS???? Hillary wants to garnish your wages??? I think Americans want to know this.. Seems to me like CNN is pro-HILLARY!

In a day dominated by familiar stump speeches, Hillary Clinton made news by saying she might allow workers' wages to be garnisheed if they refuse to buy health insurance. She has criticized Obama for pushing a health plan that she says would not require universal coverage.

Pressed on how she would enforce her mandate, Clinton said: "I think there are a number of mechanisms" that are possible, including "going after people's wages, automatic enrollment."

It would be funny if Obama and McCain win their respective party's nomination. Then the fun would begin with Arnold campaigning for McCain while Maria campaign for Obama!

Please do some good reporting-I was forced to look for details elsewhere, just found out that she said more than you wrote. You did not even write what she talked about obama.

I think experience is more important than the "idea" of change people need wake up. If you don't have the experience you can't make the needed changes. Hillary has a better chance to create the needed changes and who cares about all this Kennedy/Shiver mentions, she has her own, but I don't see it on every headline – I think there is some biasd journlism against Hillary at this point, becuase she is a woman and so I say "GO HILLARY 2008″! p.s. YThis talk of all the jobs were created do to the internet stuff and being a bubble is a little over rated. The economy overall was good due to many other factors, it does not weigh on one item, so come on…again people need to read between the headlines at times.
GO HILLARY 2008!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amy, Kazoo. Bill Richardson hasn't endorsed Clinton. Bill Cliton and Richards are hangin' out to watch the Superbowl that's all.

We really don't care about the endorsements. We know who we want to vote for or against. I am really tired of the anti-Hillary news. How come ever time that I write, my emails are always awaiting moderation?

Frank – if you are saying that Gov Swartzeneger is going to run for president after CA, then you need to read your consitution:

"No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States."

everyone needs to get over it,hillery can make a good president,and can get things done,people act like a women can't handle the task of what some real smart men have screwed up for years and bill clinton was a good president and he did leave us better off then we are now,and all the wealthy people supporting this thats going on need to come back out here and slum again i know all of you were born with that spoon in your mouth,bush made the mess we are in .

the Kennedy's are an old Aristocratic family not a Democratic one, Hillary family name is Rodham not Clinton so no Bloodline issues real exist…

Hillary 08′

Obama came to the Democratic Convention made a speech, abandon his Senate seat to run for president after three years, has not done anything for the people who elected him to the senate; could not vote in the senate on the Iraq war because he was not in the senate until 2005. Now who’s spreading "fairy tales"? Think about it people, you can not cast a VOTE if you are not there to VOTE. Uninformed people think he was in the Senate and voted "no" for the war . He has never said I was not in the Senate at the time the vote was cast to go to war in Iraq. Who’s misleading "who"? These big name endorsers think the American voting public is taking their words at face value, that’s why the big names are out there. Obama can not stand on his own record… he does not have one. That’s why the Kennedys, Oprah, Shriver and Clooney are trying to legitimize him as a politician. He is a speech maker for the good scripts that are prepared for him by the writers. We had a good talker for eight years and look where we are.

All I can say is:
Dear Senator Edwards,
Please don't let celebraties like oprah, caroline kennedy, maria Shriver be our voice, for they have all lost touch with the common person. They are caught up in the romance of Obama. We can not afford that luxary, we need someone proven, someone we know will give us real healthcare and improve our economic situation like Hillary Clinton. That is our "hope"!
PLEASE ENDORSE HILLARY!

Obama sounded like he suffers from some form of dyslexia as he attempted to debate Hillary Clinton. He has answers for nothing and thinks that his single comment about being right about Iraq is indicative that he was likely – lucky and nothing more.
Mr. Obama, with all due respect – you have no business reaching for the presidency – at least not yet.

Spend several years in self development and perhaps one day – you will have acquired the necessary skills to lead a leadership team such as this one.

And, as usual…Hillary supporters comments "awaiting moderation" for hours…ON A SUNDAY! Reinforces my decision to look towards MSNBC for Political News. CNN is an Obama campaign tool! No "award-winning" political team this year!

Obama supporters – what do you have to say about your perfect candidate taking money from Exon? Look at the NYT article today – yet another example of Mr. Perfect LYING to us – and then he says he was misunderstood. Do you people not realize that he is just like everyone else – only worse. The guy can't take a stance on anything, will twist anyone elses record, but complains that people are being unfair when they do it to him. This guy is a moron – why would I vote for someone who refuses to talk about his record (because it is sketchy at best), and just touts endorsements and great speeches. I want someone who will stand up for what they believe in and be a MAN….That definitely isn't Obama.

this a good news all democrats must do the same things vote for Hillary means lose the white house again eric from montreal.

Endorsement is quite important for candidates and does matter. Sometime depending on the context and actual timing endorsement can be decisive factor even for ordinary voters. It's a strong sign on how much of the establishment and ordinary people candidate can potentially pull together for strong ground to move on. However in this very context of this 08 election, the US needs an inspiring President that can move majorities, Senat, Congress, Workers, Unions etc….

Obama appears to have proven in this race he can create and generate motivation, confidence and audacity that are needed to send the entire nation on the move again. Also the message of experience is misleading. You do not advance in your political career as Senator for nothing! That debate is useless, Dick Cheney, Rumsfeld and co… were far more experienced as Ms. Clinton, meaning that theory of experience for becoming President is simply and illusion

To Buggz – You are kidding right??

After all these words of wrath from likely voters and even those without a vote , one of these sweet talking designer of promises will be placed in the White House and your living conditions will either remain the same or get worse. This is a hitorical fact. Think about it.

Of all the so called inspirational speeches thus far by the Obama Camp , I think Maria Shrivers was the most sincere. I was especially moved when she asked the audience to give a shout out to all who are running for the presidency and their spouses.
I have great admiration for Maria Shriver . I think she's the only one of the Kennedys who doesn't have a sense of self entitlement or self importance.
And I do love Oprah…..but I still believe in Hillary Clinton!
HILLARY for PRESIDENT.

wow how much money did obama pay arnolds wife to endorse and opera too who cares who endorses who just choose the right one CLINTON The Gringo in Peru endorses clintons how many votes does that meAN hILLARY WILL GET maybe 1 opera has 46,000,000 viewers and is #1 in talk shows and only 1% of all the voters are voting for Obama based upon what opera said why doesnt the people base their votes on the persons record?

Let's not waste any more campaign money and time…have the Chief Justice just swear Obama in as the next president.

It's a no-brainer…He is the next president!

I've tried to be nice… but Clinton supporters are flat-out idiots. Hillary is not going to bring back the "Glory days of BIll". Most of his success was timing with the rise of Internet commerce and a prosperous Middle East. He happened to be in office during a good economic timeframe and he left it at the beginning of a downturn. He gave us NAFTA… one of the first steps to the creation of a North American alliance that spans from Canada to the southern tip of South America. Thanks Bill. Yes, he started the loss of American jobs. Hillary is overpromising on what she can deliver in order to get elected… just as the usual politicians ALWAYS do. Don't buy it. Barack's plans are less lofty, but they are actually feasible.

Hillary's miracle forced health-care plan will NEVER make it thru Congress. You're a fool if you think that. She finally admitted today that if you don't voluntarily get health care they would garnish your wages… NO THANKS. The government already takes upwards of 35% of my pay. It'll never fly. Baracks plan is as close as this country will ever get to universal healthcare unless the people decide they want it… which a majority never will.

Wake up idiots. The Clintons are fake, career politicians. The rest of the world sees it and most of America is waking up to it. Why don't you?

I'm sure the Gov. himself endorsed Obama in the bedroom but for his party sake, he can't get it out to the public. This is his only way to make his support for Obama public. Go Obama!!!

All of these half Republican's helping Obama.. Sad.. I wouldn't be so proud.. They aren't for the poor.

Obama received the endorsement of the elderly Kennedy's. Clinton received the endorsement of the younger Kennedy's.

The more I hear about this "making of a rock star" the more it sickens me, what a downward spiral the morals of the Americans are really enjoying in the world spotlight – do you have any idea of how ridiculous you look to the world – you have a very smart, dedicated and knowledgeable candidate and yet you prefer the person in the limelight – how very transparent and pathetic that speaks to the intelligence of the nation as a whole – I doubt this comment along with many of my others will be shown – I really feel the need to state it though. . . . wake up before it's too late and as Decmocrats you are looking at losing the general election . . . Hillary in 08 for the world!

Women for Obama!!!

Go Maria… Great show of judgement! Sorry I cannot say the same about Arnold… with McCain

When the nephew of Kennedy accused of RAPE will endorse Obama? Might as well bring all of them!

Drunk and killer Ted Kennedy endorsed Obama, his drunkard son endorsed Obama, where is William Kennedy and Skakel accused of murdering his neighbor?? They should endorse Obama too!

Lets COMPLETE the lists of endorsers from Kennedy CLAN………LMAO!

History is in the making. Just imagine the Democratic Convention and the inauguration of Barack Obama in January. He got the potenial to be the best president of all time. He surely knows how to inspire and motivate people. That the sign of great leadership. We already had 8 years of the Clinton, Democrats TIME HAVE CHANGE please vote for change, YES WE CAN !!!!!!!!!!!!

Maria Shriver has had to play second fiddle to her cousin Caroline all of her life.She just could not let Caroline still the spotlight from her in California.So this has nothing to do with Hillary or Obama and everything to do with jealousy of Caroline.
Hillary will win by double digits Tuesday becuase of the heavy white women votes and latino votes.GO HILLARY.

Frank: If you were an educated man you would know that Senator Hillary Clinton and yes I did say Senator Hillary Clinton (stress the title of Senator), was not just the First Lady of the United States.

Here is a bit of education for you before spouting off your mouth. Just because she is a woman does not mean that she does not have the experience. Get your facts straight before writing such a rediculous comparison.

THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT HILLARY:
Hilllary Clinton, an attorney twice voted one of the most influential in America; a First Lady of Arkansas who helped transform the schools; a bestselling author; a First Lady for America who helped transform that role, becoming a champion for health care and families at home and a champion of women's rights and human rights around the world.

NOW FRANK, WHY DON'T YOU TELL ME IF LAURA BUSH HAS EVEN TRIED TO DO ANYTHING FOR THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA WHILE HER HUSBAND HAS BEEN IN OFFICE, AS HILLARY TRIED TO DO AS FIRST LADY.

BESIDES ELEANOR ROOSEVELT, HILLARY CLINTON IS THE ONLY FIRST LADY WHO ACTUALLY WORKED FOR THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA, WHILE HER HUSBAND HELD THE PRESIDENCY.

Nicole–would you really vote for a candidate because you like the person who endorsed him? I suppose people do that, but I would have thought it would be voters who aren't aware of the issues, or the candidates' positions, or their voting records. I'm rather surprise to find so many people here concerned with endorsements. Although their endorsement didn't sway my decision, the three children of Robert Kennedy who support Hilliary are political activists. I would think just for that reason, their endorsements would have more meaning to those who pick their candidates in such a strange way.

Maria thanks for joining the movement to move America forward! no more building bridges to the past, obama 08!

Oh! Maria will surely make every one change their vote immediately. What could she be thinking of. Her husband is sponsering someone who will keep the War going for 100 more years and she is sponsering someone who will end it right away. How clever of Her. I wonder who she gets points with. Her Husband or?
Give us all a break. Just vote for Hillary and we'll all be doing well in the near future.
Go Hillary.

We miss years of Clinton; gasoline price was cheaper than a bottle of water price,stock market was up,up and up,US dollar was strongest in the all world! Go Hillary,08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maria made a good choice. We don't need another Republican in office and we surely don't need another Clinton. You folks don't seem to remember that it was a Clinton that signed NAFTA and is the main reason for a bad economy. Then some don't do their own web search to see that Clinton could have had Osama Bin Laden a few times and let him go. Bush only walked into a mess created by a Clinton. I am a registered Republican. Bush inherited Clintons mess. Now it is time for a new face and name to take the office. Go Obama!

I think that when a person changes their vote for someone just because a t.v. personality is endorsing someone is totally stupid! Is this what we've come to, voting for someone just because Oprah or Caroline Kennedy or Maria Shriver is voting for Obama. I'm sorry I will not let a movie star or a former presidents daughter or Arnolds wife persuade me to vote their way. I feel very insulted , what do they think that we can't make up our own minds. I'm voting for Hillary she is the right person for the job!!!

Your main article on CNN.com said that Maria Shriver is the 3rd member of the Kennedy family to endorse Obama. You might want to correct that, because she is actually the 4th — Ethel Kennedy (widow of RFK) endorsed Obama in a Huffington Post article yesterday. So, that's Teddy, Caroline, Ethel, and now Maria!

So, who is Maria Shriever? Why is her name not Maria Swartzeneger? She does need to be part of the change = she can't even change her own name..
Anyway, She is a Republican so she must be scared of Hillary Clinton. They prefer a black to run for President because they know they can beat OBAMA easily if he is the Nominee from the Democrats side. Smart Republicans!

Any idea when CNN is going to report that Bill Richardson endorsed Clinton today? If they have already, I must be completely blind.

Watching these women speak…legends in their own minds. A real sisterhood. The a "surprise" in Maria Shriver. Yawn. Oprah's other BFF. zzzzz.

Voters need to spend more time searching for truth and less hanging onto the
words of the rich and famous. Just a sign of the times, fast-food and pre-
digested news!!!!

I love Maria! My vote goes from Hillary to Obama!!!!

RG, You're right if Hillary gets the job in 08 then someone will need to come in in four years to clean up her crap! Go Obama!

Some of the comments like Ted Kennedy endorsed Obama because he doesn't want a woman in the White House is ridiculously is silly and puerile. Grow up…!

All the endorsements in the world aren't going to get him nominated.

Maria is smart to endorse obama. too bad her idiot husband supports mccain and his 100 years in iraq policy.

Oh my gosh, another Kennedy clan gone wild…

And this matters how? You look at the range of "endorsements" Obama has, and I think I'd say… thanks, but no thanks! Obama speaks of racial equality and he doesn't want to pull the race card…. but his "endorsers" do (ie. Oprah). Makes me ill. Educate yourself, read their websites, see the differences! GO HILLARY!!!

Pundits have talked about the "far" left, the "far" right, and the center. John Kennedy was killed when I was 18 years old. I don't remember thinking about politics back then, nor did my friends. We never talked about it. I just remember listening to my parents. 18 year olds didn't do much voting back then or following politics in general. Ted Kennedy has been labeled for years as a "far" lefty as far back as I can remember. He's just got the Kennedy name and that's why people listen. And we all know he really is as far left as he can be. Just recently Obama was noted to be as very far to the left. That is why the Kennedy's are for him. I'd rather have someone in the center. I'm a registered Independent and would rather make my own choices without anyone trying to sway my vote. Endorsements mean nothing and they shouldn't. Think for yourselves people.

It makes me laugh when I read the people who try to shoot down these endorsements!…..LOL. If these people had come out to endorse Hillary..they'd be cheering and boasting…..but since they are coming out for Obama…'oh, it's nothing, who cares'….lol. You all sound bitter to me.
The truth is…regardless of what side you are on or who you are voting for…everyone has to admit that this is HUGE. It's not a joke. Obama is real. He has touched many. This is unbelievable—to have so many people involved in the primaries! Do you honestly believe that had there just been Hillary running…that anyone would be excited like this???? NO way! People do not like Hillary! If they were supporting her it would only be because they are sick of the Republicans right now and not because they truly would be in support of her. People are TRULY touched by Obama! No Joke….People LOVE Obama! EVERYONE does…black, white, asian, hispanic……rich, poor, republican, democrat, independent! Give me a break! You say that isn't big???? You are living in a dream world if you don't see or feel the effect this man has over the people in this country!

CNN and the rest of the media are trying to rig this election. They are all so biased for Obama! They haven't been posting my comments on the Obama/Exelon story. There is no integrity here!

Go Hillary, win anyway!

Another Kennedy who's married to a republican. Go figure. Her choices are based on what? Oh yeah, very good friends with Oprah. I'm still trying to figure out why she married Conan?

The Chicago Tribune features a similar story on a different topic. While Sen. Obama on the stump tells people about the plight of Maytag workers who lost their jobs, ("Obama's fundraising collides with his rhetoric") the Tribune documents that the union covering those workers believes they got no help from the Senator, who was again taking significant contributions and bundling from one of the company's directors and biggest investors.

And yesterday there was an AP story where Senator Obama told the voters of Idaho: "And then there are people who say, 'Well, he doesn't believe in the Second Amendment,' even though I come from a state — we've got a lot of hunters in downstate Illinois. And I have no intention of taking away folks' guns." But he didn't disclose to those voters, as the AP said that "he does support gun control and has a record of voting for it in the Illinois Senate. He backed limiting handgun purchases to one a month, but he made no attempts to ban them." When he originally ran for the state legislature 12 years ago, he filled out a questionnaire saying he ''supported banning the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns." He gave the voters of Idaho no indication whatsoever of either his record in the State Senate or his prior views on the questionnaire.

I would like to comment on this story, but Pro-Clinton entries seem to disappear.

Good Luck Hillary, you are the best canidate.

How will California residents respond to her surprise endorsement? Will Obama pull ahead? Will he gain more Latino voters because of her endorsement since she is their 1st Lady?

I just wish this campaign wasn't so obsessed with endorsements. Layoffs are happening all over, people are losing their homes, families don't have healthcare…I watched the event live and all anyone is talking about it hoping and dreaming and believing it's possible. I've hoped and dreamed and believed, and now I want someone who can legislate and govern in Washington. For me that's Clinton, no matter what any of the endorsers on either side say. Maria said to connect with my own truth. I did and got a different answer than she did.

I'm still hoping for a Clinton/Obama ticket — that could work. But if Obama gets the nomination, I want Clinton in the Senate guiding the legislation that heads to his desk. This is still about writing laws that work and moving them through the Congress in a bipartisan manner.

So, Maria Shriver endorses Obama. Yip pee!! This does not change anything. Do the majority of voters vote for a presidential candidate based on endorsements? I hope not.

Great news! Excellent choice Maria, just EXCELLENT.

Join the movement, Obama for President

Obama '08

What an inspiration…. To get out there and make a difference. She is such a brave leader and motivator. She was awesome…a breath of fresh air! To have the first lady of CA. endorse Obama! It was just crazy…. I think she will be able to motivate people who are on the fence and get people out and vote! I know she will be able to help those who are having a hard time deciding who to vote for…

Another Kennedy endorsed Obama because they don't want a women in power. I can't wait for the result on Feb.5 and see who got the last laugh. Vote for experience and Vote for Hillary Clinton. Sorry Obama, try in four or eight years from now.

Unbelievable –

Obama has been endorsed by the following Kennedys:

*Caroline Kennedy (JFK's daughter)
*Teddy Kennedy (JFK's brother)
*Ethel Kennedy (RFK's wife)
*Rory Kennedy (RFK's youngest child)
*Maria Shriver (JFK's niece)

Obama got all the top tier Kennedys

If you're voting Obama because he's the best man for the job, good. However, if you actually care about Oprah, Shriver, or the Black Eye Peas, then you're a bunch of morons. Somebody please post Obama's voting record. It's at senate.gov.

I'll take Senator Feinstein's endorsement of Clinton over Shriver's endorsement of Obama any day!

I wonder if Laura Bush can also claim to be ready on day one to be the next President since she, like Hillary, has also completed almost 8 years of being First Lady !!!

There is more than meets the eye in this endorsement! Ever thought what her husband might be going for after his governorship is over in CA. Well, start guessing!!!!

Obama gets all the endorsements from people that have a reputation that might actually help his campaign rather than hinder!

Go Obama!

Now that is interesting…
