		<description>A leader is made by their gravitas and ability to accomplish great things with diverse supporters. Great leaders unify those who would otherwise be enemies. The founding fathers unified and created this nation by bringing together a heterogeneous group of land owners, and working out compromises that many of us today would not stomach. We work in a time of black and white rarely mixing to build eloquent bridges of gray between partisan arguments. The name of the game is enmity, not Barack&#039;s message of unity. Young does not mean incapable. Barack Obama is 46 years old. Under the logic that Barack is a kid and therefore unqualified, Strom Thurmond would have been the strongest presidential candidate of the two and a half decades before his death.</description>

		<description>It is so sad that even after Super Tuesday - and Hillary coming out with more delgates  - that the women of our country havent woken up yet. It is all very well to vote for change - but I will be voting for an experienced woman to make the right changes! Obama has only ever said vote for CHANGE - but please what is he going to change ! I get the impression that he will decide what to do if he gets elected and then sorry for us - we will have to put up with an amateur! Go Hillary - you get my vote cos I am a young woman and proud to support another woman!</description>

		<description>Please think about it and vote for Obama. Hillary has too much baggage and if she has a lot then her husband will bring some to. People think that if you vote for her then you wont get him... They are MARRIED PEOPLE! I want somebody who owes nobody nothing. Thats OBAMA! People keep sayn he should try back in 8 yrs or 16 yrs... My question is WHY? Whats the diffrence between now and later? We need HELP last year. He is the person for the change right now... They are already talkn about if she wins the nomination and moves back into the white house. The REPUBLICANS are already talkn about gettin the house and the senate back in two years. That means she will jus be sittin there in the white house for the next two doin NOTHING... REPUBLICANS dnt like her and they will stand in the way of anything she tries to do. SHE WILL NOT UNITE NOTHING... SHE WILL NOT BE PRODUCTIVE... REMEBER THEY ARE ALREADY PLANNIN TO BLOCK EVERYTHING SHE PUTS BEFORE THEM. I want a winner and somebody who is already bringin the country together and thats OBAMA!</description>

		<description>Experience was not a factor for the Clintons to win Arkansas governorship so it should be so with Obama. The Clintons are too divisive to be in the White House again. Character counts.</description>

		<description>McCain will lose in the worst landslide in U.S. History against either Clinton or Obama.  He is losing support rapidly, but will never give up now so, the Republicans will battle all the way to the convention.   Pundits will put the blame on Huckabee but it should rest squarely with McCain.  He is too old for the very difficult job he is running for and he should have known it.</description>

		<description>Why do people think Hillary has more experience because she was a President&#039;s wife? If Bush&#039;s wife ran would you make that argument? Both Hillary and Obama are Senators, and Obama has ~more~ experience dealing with foreign people, which gives him the advantage in a world that, quite frankly, ~hates~ the USA.</description>

		<description>Democrat or Republican I have always voted for the best candidate not the party. I must admit over the 44 years I have voted it has been mostly Democrat.
However if Obama is the Democrat runner I will vote for someone else to try to keep him from getting into the white house. Obama is not qualified in any way to run this country.
I pray the young people can see beyond the wild Music and Hype that the media has surrounded him with and vote for the best qualified person, be it a Democrat or Republican or Independent.</description>

		<description>Anyone who says they will vote for McCain, remember one thing.  When you get your &quot;save the economy check&quot; in May that will be the last time you will ever get anything good from the government once McCain gets in office.  When he keeps this war going for  100 YEARS(he wont even live that long)  your children, nephews, neices etc... will suffer because of  your stupidity.  Here we have this idiot for a President destroying our country, and you want to let this guy wiz by with the presidency.  Look how hard Clinton and Obama are working for your votes.  McCain is just winning on the Republican side because he dosent really have any competition( That dosent say much for the Republican party now  does it).  So you would  rather support a loser in McCain than support either Dem who is not your favorite. All the donations you sent in, all the volunteers who want their country back, all the people who are really taking this serious, while you guys sit on the internet all day and argue like some kids in a popularity contest.  

SO you say giving your vote to Obama would be a waste well guess what.  Your Vote for McCain will be a waste to because in each Primary election we have had so far the Democratic voters have turned out 5x over the Republican voters.

THAT MEANS NO ONE IS VOTING FOR A REPUBLICAN THIS TIME AROUND IDOIT.
well except for you that is if Obama wins the nominee.  How sad is that going to be losing to Obama even though you tried to vote against him.  with that being said my choice is this:

1. Obama(100% supprt)
2. Clinton(Even though I question her ethics, and her greed for power)
3. NOBODY(I wont be part of McCain&#039;s obsession with war so he can get revenge  on the rest of the world because he was a POW).

		<description>It is clear to everyone now that Obama is the choice. Hillary should throw in the towel in an honourable manner like what Edwards and Rommey did.

		<description>Question from an Independent:

If HIllary Clinton has &quot;35 years&quot; of experience in the community or providing &quot;solutions for america.&quot;  How does she afford a 5 million dollar loan?  Where is she getting that money from?  According to Bill, &quot;He will not donate money to her campaign.&quot;  So as a Senator and a public servant, how does she have that kind of money?  We know Mitt Romney was a venture capitalist.  But she has &quot;35 years of experience&quot; helping the public.   

This should be looked into.  Her tax forms should be released at least.

		<description>Honestly, people, do you really think that if Hillary is against McCain she will win? Boy that is wishful thinking. This country is more prepared for another man, even if he is black, then a woman!. If it comes down to Hillary vs McCain, McCain will win, and I will move to Canada (or maybe back to France).</description>

		<description>The fact that over 50% of the country WOULD NEVER VOTE FOR HILLARY is well documented.  And the fact that this is still unclear to 50% of voting Democrats is kind of scary.  The Democrats needs to not blow this and actually WIN in 2008.  You only get there with Obama.  Simple math.</description>

		<description>I think McCain will definitely win if Obama is the Democratic nominee, because the main reason Hillary supporters won&#039;t vote for Obama is because they don&#039;t believe he has enough experience, and you can&#039;t change that FACT between now and November.  

If Hillary wins the nomination, Obama supporters simply need to get over it emotionally, and go back to church and God for hope and inspiration (many studies support this relationship - more so than an overt figure).</description>

		<description>If Obama and Hillary virtually present the same plan.  Why switch to vote for Republican? Give a reason for the switch.  There are examples of Presidents that entered office with fewer years of experience.  He has more experience as an elected official than HRC.  Could it be his age?  Education?  Intelligence?  His race?</description>

		<description>This is so wrong. I&#039;ve heard too many people, staunch Democrats, tell me that if it&#039;s a contest between Obama and McCain, it will be the first time they&#039;ve ever voted for a Republican President - they&#039;ll be voting for McCain.</description>

		<description>OBAMA AND THE WORLD

INCIDENT 1: On 1 August 2007, Senator Obama expressed in his speech at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars his willingness to bomb Pakistani territory in an attempt to eliminate possible al-Qaeda training bases.

RESULT: American flags were burned in protest in Islamabad, Miranshah, and Karachi.  On that occasion, Pakistan&#039;s foreign minister, Khursheed Kasuri, told AP, &quot;It&#039;s a very irresponsible statement, that&#039;s all I can say.”

LESSON: Even if you don’t completely trust a vital ally (President Musharraf), you don’t publically state that you’re willing to bomb his country.

INCIDENT 2: During the campaign for the Iowa caucus, Senator Obama stated that he would &quot;stop the import of all toys from China.&quot; 

RESULT: An angry response by Qin Gang, a spokesman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, describing the statement as &quot;unobjective, unreasonable and unfair.&quot;

LESSON: You don’t directly attack the economic interests of a country that’s holding 1 trillion dollars in US treasuries.


These episodes derive from a total inexperience on foreign policy.  But, rest easy America --  as Obama claims -- his four years living as a child in Indonesia gave him a solid understanding of the world.</description>

		<description>&quot;i know that if Obama gets the nomination, I will be voting for McCain.

Hillary is my first choice however.&quot;

So, you are a republican I take it. That being the case, I can understand why you would vote for Hillary. She has been Bush&#039;s best friend in the Senate with her votes to go war and manufacture a state of war with Iran. I&#039;m sure Bush and McCain would both like to see Hillary mandate profits for the insurance industry by shoving health care down our throats. Very pro big business. 

Tell you what, do us a favor. Vote for McCain. Barak will take care of him in the fall.</description>

		<description>Hilary Clinton as the Democratic nominee is the only factor that could unify the fractured Republican Party.  Too much baggage is the price for her &quot;experience&quot;.  

  Can we afford to have another Scalia/Alito/Thomas-like Supreme Court Justice appointed by a victorious McCain who&#039;ll draw back in the morality-riders who remember the Clinton era as a time of ethical bankruptcy?

Let&#039;s try inspiration.  The traditional pols&#039; program is not getting it done at home or abroad.</description>

		<description>Polls are meaningless and predict NOTHING! The only thing they do is promote the candidate that the news station supports. Voters need to vote for the candidate they feel can lead this country, not to vote for who the station says will beat McCain.
Hillary said it best when she said it took a Clinton to clean up after the first Bush and it will take a Clinton to clean up after this one, too.
I don&#039;t mind Obama in office, as long as he is Hillary&#039;s VP. Let him do some time on Capitol Hill  BEFORE we throw him into the most difficult and demanding job in America! I&#039;d vote for him in a future campaign, not this one, though. I don&#039;t vote on HYPE and Charisma (Hell, I voted Kerry last time and there is no one more boring than him.) Bottom line, I look at a candidate&#039;s experience (resume) before I vote or (hire) that person to lead my country.</description>

Your tone is exactly what is wrong in America today.  Obama offers a freshness that the country yearns....enought of the idiotic rantings from both sides of the aisle.</description>

This does not suprise me at all. In fact, I suspect Barack&#039;s advatage will only grow as more people get to know him and understand his message.
 
 
Bob, DC   February 8, 2008 7:24 pm ET
Your comment is awaiting moderation. 
Another aspect of this is that Hillary will have negative coat-tails for Democrats up for election/relection in Nov 08, especially in the &quot;red&quot; states. Senator Claire McCaskill (D-MO) mentioned recently saying that a Hilary nomination would &quot;hurt&quot; Democrats. This issue is will critical to many of the &quot;super delegates&quot; when deciding who to support.</description>

		<description>Obama is McCain&#039;s and the Republicans worst night mare ias far as the general election race. 

Why?  Because conservatives and Independants actually like him. He has diverse support. Hillary is an easy target if she is the nominee-- she has a huge bullseye on her back and the die hard Republican Party can not wait for her to be the nominee. Nothing will reunite the worst part of the Republican party faster.</description>

		<description>Dear Howard Dean:

This year, there is going to be a toss-up between the 2 remaining Democratic candidates, and it is partially your job (as well as the other superdelegates) to choose the victor. You need to base it on data and strategy, not on anything else. The data supports an Obama strategy in 2008 because he beats McCain better than the alternative. He attracts the independent vote, yet is supported by the Democratic establishment as much as Clinton is. He has the ability to raise money without resorting to large, personal loans. He can carry forward the best of the Democratic platform, and leave the perceived negatives of the Clinton decade behind. 

That makes Obama the best choice should this election come down to a superdelegate decision. 

And one more thing: YRRREEEEAAAAHHH!!!

Sincerely,
Kevin</description>

		<description>Oh come on. The country is so fed up with the Bush lies and manipulations that I think ANY Democrat can and will beat McCain, who spouts even more war rhetoric than Bush. That is, if we are even allowed to vote....Bush does have that Executive Order out there to declare martial law and suspend the election, and don&#039;t think he won&#039;t.
 Please support Robert Wexler&#039;s attempt to impeach these liars before it&#039;s too late.</description>

		<description>This Hillary vs. Obama thing reminds me of the story in the Bible, where two women each claimed a baby, and Solomon had to decide which was the true mother. So he ordered the baby cut in half. One of the women surrendered her claim rather than see the baby hurt, and so Solomon knew she was the true mother.

Neither Hillary nor Obama has the party&#039;s, or the nation&#039;s, best interest at heart. Both of them just want to win.</description>

		<description>The gap is the difference between Obama and Mccain.

More polls can be found at Real Clear Politics, Clinton hardly ever winds a poll against Mccain, while Obama nearly always wins</description>

		<description>On Super Tuesday, in six red states that had primaries or caucuses for both Republicans and Democrats, Obama won and got more votes than the top two Republicans combined.  These states – Colorado, Georgia, Iowa, Missouri, North Dakota and South Carolina – account for a total of 53 Electoral College votes.  In Idaho and Kansas, where there was no Republican primary, Obama won at least a three-to-one victory over Clinton.  Obama has shown such a strong appeal with Independents that even John McCain&#039;s Texas media consultant Mark McKinnon recently confirmed that he would not work against Obama if he is the nominee.</description>

		<description>The truth of this statement is reflected in the results from the contests we&#039;ve had so far.  In critical swing states that Democrats need to carry in November, Obama has beaten Hillary Clinton among Independent voters by crushing margins.  In Missouri, he won them by 37 points (67-30).  In New Mexico, he&#039;s winning them by 39 points (63-24).  In Arizona and New Hampshire, he won them by 10 points (47-37, 41-31).</description>

		<description>Have mercy on us, Lord, if either ever sets foot in the White House.  And let&#039;s pray McCain stays in for only four years.  That&#039;s about all the liberalism this nation can withstand.</description>

		<description>Of course the Clintons WOULD AGAIN ensure that the Democrats skillfully snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

The Clintons debased the Oval Office, undermine the US Presidency and selfishly destroyed their own White House legacy,  deny Al Gore, and enabled Bush to empty the National Treasury and waste thousands of good American lives and limbs in an UNPROVOKED war..

And if the Democrats becomes spineless and enable a CLINTON THIRD TERM, THEN THE DEMOCRATS WILL AGAIN snatch defeat from the jaws of victory!</description>

		<description>This reaffirms the fact that Obama is more electable.  I&#039;ve heard so many times that &quot;our country is still too racist to elect a black president&quot;.  I disagree.  There appear to be more people out there (particularly Republicans) who hate Hillary Clinton than there are those who hate black people.</description>
