I thought this was a democracy, not a dynasty. For 25 years we have had two families in the executive office. Bush, Clinton, Bush and now another chance for Clinton. I don't think so. If you vote for HRC then you're voting for Bush. Hilary is a wolf in sheep's clothing and you Hilary supporters (sheep) are lambs being led to slaughter. Eight years of rising gas prices, and now home foreclosures and the most terrible thing fathers, mothers, sons, and daughters dying and being maimed n a useless sinceless war. How many of you Bush supporters are in those situations now? Probaly not if you are rich with coporations that you back; ie, Bushes and Clintons. The working people are the backbone of this country. Obama is offering change. Hilary supporters (sheep) ask what kind of change? A country for the people by the people. Not by two families who has never felt the pain and the agony of trying make ends meet by the average american. Obama might not have all the answers but he does; I believe, have a plan to try to solve the problems here and abroad. He can't do it by himself unless WE THE PEOPLE also help in a destiny not a dynatsy for democracy.

If Hillary wins the nomination, prepare to have John mcCain as your next president.

Would your Clinton supporters be happy then?

oh God Amy…if Obama was seen with beer in a RED mug..he would be considered Republican, mad, crazy, terrorist, Muslim..and what not…Hillary is there until now because media is kind to her….

TO James: Hillary is nothing near Huckabee. Hey, why didn't Obama drop out when he was trailing by a hundred delegates huh? You all are so quick to count Hillary out before March 4th has even come…is that fear that she will win the nomination if she stays in? Because if you honestly believed she didn't stand a chance, you wouldn't be telling her to get out…

Yes we will see and we will see Hillary as the winner. When it comes to the big states, the popular vote, Hillary is the winner. She is being outspent 2 to 1 and STILL is winning. What does that say!

I think she should drop out of the race as she has lost 8 straight races and if that is not a clue I guess tomorrow will be. Bottomw line Hilary Clinton is no better suited to run this nation as her buddy George Bush…. and trust me they are very good friends.

Nafta, do I need to say more about the experience HC is brining to the table. I can' beleive she is able to have a straight face when she speaks of how her husband sold low income jobs and moved them overseas. Doesn't affect me directly as I am educated and have more options but if you haven't been to MI lately drive by Detroit and it looks terrible….. thanks to the Clintons!

I am positive, that Mrs Clinton is the WINNER !!!!!!!
She is the BEST CANDIDATE !!!!!!!!!!!!

Nothing will happen except Hillary Clinton conceding to Barack Obama, then again she will probably do like most women and play things to the end knowing there will be no light at the end of the tunnel instead of what men would do is cut their losses and keep it moving, she is well past hope in this campaign and even if she were to win texas and ohio she will still lose the nomination for the simple fact that the vast majority of voters believe in Barack Obama and don't believe anything that Hillary Clinton says or tries to do.

Some of the very senators that have endorsed Obama ALSO VOTED IN FAVOR OF THE IRAQ VOTE…why because the President asked for a unanimous vote in favor of the war in support of our troops. Keep in mind during that time the troops had been and were being deployed and were sitting in a holding pattern all over the middle east a vote against them was anti american…no matter how you voted it was going to be wrong……so since other endorsers made a BAD JUDGMENT…..does that mean they too are not capable of making good judgment….meaning maybe they are making a BAD Judgment endorsing OBAMA!! Things that make you go HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM??????

If Hillary wins it will be because she cheated. She's a crook, always has been. Look at her record.

Besides she relied on her husband's record to get her where she is, instead of standing on her own two feet and kicking his lying rear end out! That's not my idea of a strong women!!!!!!!!!!

I'll vote Republican if she wins.

I think a poll should be taken to see how many voters feel Hillary and her supporteres have been cheated by such unfair reporting and obvious Clinton haters and discrimiantion against her because she is a woman – and how many will cross over if Obama if the nominee and vote for McCain

Has the pressure driven the Senator to hit the bottle already?

I'm just wondering if ANYONE is PAYING any ATTENTION to how desperate both Senator Obama and his supporters really are?

Yes, he is now ahead in delegates – WHY?

The blacks in the Democratic Party have coerced, threatened, including death threat emails to the black super delegates and others to force them to support Senator Obama or not ever be elected again or worse…

CHANGE YOU CAN BELIEVE IN!

I'm kind of ashamed that people are insulting her for having a beer now.

Please be fair in your criticisms.

Question:
If Obama is leading by X delegates Wednesday morning, Hillary should drop out.
X=?

Obama is so misleading in his campaigning, stating that he was against the war and did not vote for the war….well, those statements are true, but he was not in the U.S. Senate when the votes were cast, so technically, no, he did not vote for the war….But why won't CNN bring out the truth? That he was not able to vote for ANYTHING at that time in the Senate…And he had no clue what was presented to the Senate and House members so he cannot make a judgment at all about it. He needs to shut up about his judgment—No man can say what they would do when they are not in the position at the time to make a decision. And, I am concerned that theBLACK super delegates are switching to Obama under duress…THEY ARE BEING THREATENED, AND WHEN ONE VOTES UNDER THAT KIND OF PRESSURE, WHAT DOES THAT SAY ABOUT THE RACE (NO PUN INTENDED)? It is time for CNN to stop promoting Obama and start telling the truth about both Obama and Hillary Clinton….If we have a candidate that is so misleading to the people when running for office, just think about how misleading he would be if voted into office.

Most of Sen. Obama's supporters on here just come off as very mean people. That is another reason I will never vote for him, as President or here in Illinois as Senator. If the best person doesn't win tomorrow and is forced to quit the race, I will be voting Republican again I guess. At least their candidate knows being President is not just a game to be won in out maneuvering and out spending your opponent, and getting the "cool" prize of getting to sit in the oval office. We don't need Cool in the White House, we need experience, judgment, and someone willing to take the lumps when the right thing is not always the popular thing. Obama just doesn't measure up yet on those criteria.

Dear Hillary!
I will be wearing my Hillary 08 tshirt tomorrow!
YOU are the best candidate hands down and I WILL BE voting for you from PA in April!

YOU ROCK!

I have never given any monies to a person running for office. However, this time I find myself compelled to do so. I have given monies to Hillary and by God if she choose to have a beer I am glad I could help her out. She deserves a little R&R.

On another note B.O. is NOTHING, he uses speeches from others and claims them to be his own, he has NO record, his ATTACKS on Hillary are seen in the media as facts, which truly they are not.

When B.O. does speak he gets his facts all wrong.

When Hillary says one little thing it gets blown out of proprotion and seen as defensive. It took SNL to get that point across. She is treated unfairly but she still carries on in her "you're not going to stop me" manner.

B. O. is an empty suit, full of lies and manipulation. He has no record. He would make a great preacher seeing as he get people all worked up but he does nothing as it has been proven time and time again.

Hillary has the backing of people who have substance, knowledge, and who educated themselves on the real issues and facts.

B.O. is a nobody. He never finishes anything. His voting has been M.I.A. and that has been proven.

The man would not say our Pledge nor would he put his hand over his heart unitl he was called out on it several times. Also he would not wear our flag pin on his lapel until people started complaing.

He has no idea what he is doing, he only says what people tell him. He is not a man who stands on his own. He stands on all of you who will allow it. I will not vote for him no matter what the outcome may be. He's worthless!

GO HILLARY!!!

For all Obama voters, you have just elected McCain for President.
Be careful what you ask for.

The true Hillary Clinton has come out over the last few weeks. It is not a good Hillary either…I was for her earlier but now I am not….She has acted like a little school girl as of late not a preisdent.

Amazing race, thats the best way to sum it all up. Its like a baseball game that comes comes down to the bottom of the ninth, 2 outs, bases loaded and full count. Think AMAZING METS!!! She will do it and go on to the Whitehouse. If anyone watche the SNL skit on Sat night, it was a sad paradox of the truth! THe press has done whatever possible to challenge Hillary and Obama has been the wonder boy. Obama is a good man and coudl make a great VP for Hillary and possible we coudl continue the Dmocratic positon in the White House for the next 16 years! Protect America, vote Hillary.

Although I'm an Obama supporter, I understand Hillary's issue about Obama wasn't there to vote for war. However, my biggest problem is she did vote…… BUT … BUT… SHE DIDN'T READ THE DOCUMENT! Now if that isn't reason to keep her out the white house, I don't know what is.. You mean to tell me, you have to make a choice regarding "GOING TO WAR" and you "DON'T READ THE DOCUMENT".. So much for experience. I know I'm backing the right person.. OBAMA!

To all those who say Hillary would have a huge lead if the votes in MI and FL were counted: Hillary was the only major candidate on the ballot in MI and they were not allowed to campaign in those states. So who won? – The person who people already knew AND that same person was the only one on the ballot. You want to count votes from that skewed process?

Hillary Clinton's Tax returns, Whitehouse papers, Dubia ports deal, Khasackstan Uranium Deal for the Canadians, The Ron Brown Documentary of how he was killed.The FEC investigation into her run for the Senate in New York, White water land deals, the THEFT of whitehouse furniture, silver, paintings, cuttlery, crockery. The list is too long for this Blog. WILL BLOW UP IN THE HILLARY SUPPORTERS AND DEMOCRATIC PARTIES FACE.
The lady is not to be trusted and is NOT honest.
The Republicans will use all her foibles against her and make mincemeat of her come November do we really need another impeachable Clinton in the Whitehouse???

Obama for president.

Hang in there Hillary…don't give up!

No matter how many more contests you lose, just ignore them and keep on going. If you lose big tomorrow, focus on April 22…you can win in Pennsylvania!

If you don't win enough delegates, use that Clinton experience and coerce SuperDelegates to vote for you anyway.

Take away the will of the people who have spoken out against you.

Continue to divide the Democratic party with your lies and negativity.

Cry tonight to get some more sympathy votes before tomorrow's Prim-a-Caucus.

Sue the Democratic party to get your votes reinstated in Michigan and Florida. Sue in Nevada and sue in Texas.

Do whatever it takes to win the nomination.

Keep spitting and snarling and showing the world how tough you are!!!

Yeah…go Hillary.

Rodney, I don't know where you get your information, but Obama is leading in most of the Texas cities. I'm from Austin, and here alone he is ahead 67 to 33 percent. It's closer in other cities, but still- your comment was incorrect. The only places that she's ahead in polling is in small towns like the one I'm originally from (which are typically Republicans that, coincidentally, want her to win the nomination) and the Rio Grande Valley.

Texas is still up in the air, but it will depend on voter turnout, something that Obama has had the upper hand with in a lot of previous primaries and caucuses. As a voter from Austin by way of a small conservative town, I wonder how many of the small town voters will actually go vote; it wasn't a big thing to do when I lived there, and my family tells me that not much has changed.

Independent for Obama

OBAMA is all talk. Who really knows what kind of change he'll bring? Change is not always good. Bush changed this nation from peace to war, from prosperity to recession. With an unknown like Obama, who knows what he'll bring. Hillary has my vote, I know where she stands. Even McCain looks better than Obama, and he'll get my vote if Obama gets nominated. And I'm a democrat who's never voted for a Republican my whole life.

Haha if she is answering the phone with a beer in her hand at 3:00 a.m. clearly she is up for booty calls.

I'll skip the beer and go straight to bourbon if Hillary gets the nod on Tuesday.

I cannot believe the hatred and discrimination that obama supporters have shown in these post…he's old?! ?!she's old?!?! Hillary is old ; McCain is old..Obama is young, youth is in… so on and so forth. What kind of a country is this anyways!!!! this election is not for the ME GENERATION! It is for all people PERIOD but you all have turned it into a generational fight! You say your have hope, want change..BLAH BLAH BLAH…but all you're showing is selfishness, disdain and contempt. It is no wonder that the Hillary supporter will turn cross over and leave Obama to STAND ALONE WITH HIS GROUPIES if he wins the nomination!!!! You cut the competitor and then reach out in friendship? I think not! So spoiled little brats ! GROW UP AND BE ADULTS….
And no not all of us who vote for Hillary and McCain are OLD!!! But then again we don't base our beliefs on superficial values unlike Obama supporters have shown so far!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Having a beer and posing for a photo. Is that a new ad?!! Whether it is a beer or just a coke, all we know it is a beer, as the media has told us so.
So, who is being favored by the media?!! The one allowing herself to be photographed with a beer in in campaign or the whole working hard to educate the voters?
HRC would make a good Vice-President, if she concedes now. So what will the demo lose? If she goes on after March 4, McCain will win by 70% margin.
Better leave now and get something, than stay and lose everything.
OB-08.

Having Obama as the Democratic nominee is the biggest mistake this country will make. That can go right nect to electing Bush as president. I can not believe people are choosing Obama the nobody over Hillary Clinton who has actual ideas to better this country. What does Obama have besides a speech for everything? Nothing. If you are not going to vote for Hillary for yourselves do it for your children, nieces, and nephews. Obama seema like a nice guy but that does not equate to having the ability or the strength to be president. It is not too late to make the right decision and vote for Hillary

jake from dallas – you epitomizes the clintons' lack of respect towards another person's choice. calling them stupid for their choice reflects more on you and your family. you're more stupid, if not more totally idiotic, than anybody else because of your choice. how's that?

everyone has a choice and be thankful we have that freedom. remember that.

"Nursing" a beer is the closest Hillary Clinton should ever be allowed to the health care system. Someone who has never run a business, has never taken (or at least understood) basica economics or constitutional law, and had to follow a burse around for a day to "find out what nurses do" thinks she can wave her magic megalomanical wand and fix a system that owes ALL of its problems to policies she loves . . .

Come on, Texas and Ohio. You can put the stake in the vampire's heart once and for all! (metaphorically and politically speaking, of course!) Eliminate the female socialist from the electoral race, and the Republicans will take care of the African-American socialist.

Special thanks to Ralph Nader for dropping in once again to make the job easier . . .

And, finally, let's go to the record of Hillary Clinton's remarks regarding the 2000 presidential election, and see how many of them would apply to her attempts to "change the rules in midstream because she doesn't like the result" regarding the Michigan and Florida primaries.

According to the NYT, Karl Rove, architect of Bush's presidential election "victories," said "calls from Democrats for Mrs. Clinton's withdrawal (are) unwise and unbecoming… It's up to the delegates at the convention to decide who wins and loses." Now, the fact that the ultimate Republican strategist pushes for this fight to continue all the way to the convention should give every Democratic voter some pause. Is "McCain 2008″ really what we want? Hillary, please let it be over before "the fat lady sings." (Not least because I happen to be a very musical person.)

I'm a Democrat. If Hillary wins the nomination (and it would be interesting to see how she pulls it off), I'm crossing over to vote for McCain.

I have a huge respect for Hillary. She is amazing woman who is a fighter and great leader.
Go all the way, Hillary! Don't quit!
Keep away empty promise/ motivational speaker/Jesus praying Obama out of the Whitehouse!

HILLARY 08!

Yes that's Ted Danson – longtime friends of the Clintons.

CLINTON FOR PRESIDENT – THE CANDIDATE WE CAN DEPEND ON!

Yeah this week she's Hillary "I'm Awesome and Soooo Not Square" Clinton where she hits up SNL, drinks some beer with Danson, and heads out to meet Jon Stewart tonight.

If Obama is the great uniter, he seems to be doing a rather bad job of uniting the democratic party.

IF Hillary were to win the nomiation, the race in the General will be between McCain and Nader.

This latest NAFTA incident where Obama showed he will do whatever and say whatever to seek higher office is consistent with his 6 oops votes (pressed the wrong button), his 135 present votes, his wife's mis-statement of being proud for the first time in america, his boneheaded relationship with Rezko, his drive of media to his own picture in Kenya to paint clinton as the culprit, his playing the race cards and stick on Bill. The trend is now clear. Obama is no more then a used car salesman playing the voter stupid. Its a real shame!

What we have here are two veterans of Washington politics
versus one veteran of Chicago politics. Whatever is the difference?
Where's the guarantee that being a "visionary" is better than actually working toward a goal?
This is not a personality or beauty contest, but a test for who has the
best plan for education, jobs, ending our presence in Iraq, health care,
and repairing the infrastructure.
It is not unpatriotic to want what is best for America!!!!!

#1 HILLARY HAS NO EXPERIENCE AS A PRESIDENT!!! #2 HILLARY VOTED FOR THE WACK WAR!!! #3 EIGHT LONG YEARS IN THE WHITE HOUSE AS 1ST LADY AND NO UNIVERSITY INSURANCE #4 LET HE WHO HAS NOT SINNED CAST THE FIRST STONE SO WHY IS HER HUSBAND SPEAKING OUT AGAINST OBAMA!!! #5 I WOULD RATHER VOTE REPUB BEFORE I WOULD VOTE FOR HILLARY AND THATS THE TELL IT LIKE IT IS TRUTH!!!

to shamous mc – obama.

I WANT A PRESIDENT and NOT a celebrity!

Vote SMART
VOTE HILLARY!

He has barked about Hillary voting on the war on Iraq BUT he was not even a Senator when they voted. IN fact when it came around to vote again in 2003 Obama in fact DID vote to conitue the war. She has made it clear to the President and Congress when she voted on the war to have clear evidance and measures to run a safe combat, but just like the entire country we ALL were mislead.

Obama fans: NAME one thing He has accomplished?

Like I said wake up idiots- vote smart- KNOW the facts and know what you are voting for- Words or Action?

Hillary is action!

Go Hillary!

I dont like beer but I will be having many when we take Texas & Ohio tomorrow.

Probably, given the Caucus complement of the Texas polls, OBAMA WILL INCREASE HIS ELECTED DELEGATES ADVANTAGE IF
OHIO + TEXAS SHOWS A DRAW AND MAINTAIN IT If THE BALANCE IS SLIGHTLY POSITIVE FOR HILLARY VOTE-WISE!!

IF HILLARY CONTINUES NEVERTHELESS, IS BECAUSE SHE DREAMS OF SUPERDELEGATES SUPPORT AND MICHIGAN / FLORIDA SELEGATE SITTING, WHICH OF COURSE WILL NOT HAPPEN !

TOM

Jake from Dallas!

You are one of the most ignorant racist of all times. You stink with your comments and now you're one of those "so called Democrat" who through this electoral process have revealed THEY RACIST.

JAKE FROM DALLAS IS AN IGNORANT RACIST

Brandon et al – what is wrong with a gal sitting and having a beer or drinking from a red cup.. ggeeezzzzzzz – do you have nothing else to beat her up on.. I'm sick of you people – you guys are just too afraid of a woman being able to do a better job and won't give her a chance..

what a shame – instead, you will put someone in there with little to no experience and by that I mean – not old school politics – but the ACTUAL knowledge to take care of business..

sighhhhhhhhhhhhh -

How good are Obama decision making skills?

Let's talk behind close doors with Canada.
Let's not have a meeting even though we are at war.
Let's get involved with a person who has a bad rep already.
Oh the list gets longer and longer. Great judgement ? Good judgement? Come on people stop talking and start listening! He's done!

With all that money spent and all those speeches he should be laying on the beach waiting for tomorrow to be over. But, he's not. He's doan in Ohio and down in Texas. You believe what you want.

Hillary will win and that's a fact!

FYI Senator Rockefeller voted YES on the Iraq resolution. Senator Obama failes to metion that during his speech!

I hope if Obama is nominated, he does not consider Hillary in a cabinet position. That would be just as bad as having her as the president.

I saw a poll by MSNBC where most people thought that Hillary is tough, experienced, untrustworthy and not likeable.
Her negative campaign didn't help at all because most of the time women are supposed to have qualities us men lack such to be sympathic and empathic.
Having similar policies, she should've tried to selfmarketing her way better.
People will vote for Obama even though he's less experienced because he seems trustworthy.

If you follow Hillary's logic to it's conclusion on national security then McCain should be the President. McCain's real life experience trumps both Obama's experience and Hillary's (both real and imagined). McCain and Clinton voted the same way on Iraq.
If you believe that judgement is the most important trait of a leader then your choice is clear. No President in the history of the US faced the challenges that confronted Abe Lincoln. Yet his prior experience was a term in the Illinois Legislature and a term in Congress. Ironic isn't it?

Obama will be sure to get swift boated hanging arounf Kerry .Obama is the biggest flip flopper of all times .Just to Canadian officials released a memo from his financial advisor on down playing his thoughts on NAFTA .Here he is mailing out millions of flyers hammering Clinton and he is just as bad or not worse .
Making News Today: According to his senior economic policy adviser, Sen. Obama’s recent speeches about NAFTA are just words. During a meeting at the Canadian consulate in Chicago, the adviser “candidly acknowledged the protectionist sentiment that has emerged… during the campaign. He cautioned that this messaging should not be taken out of context and should be viewed as more about political positioning than a clear articulation of policy plans,” according to a Canadian government memo. Read more.

Ready on day 1 means you have to do your homework so you can be ready. Voting for the war is bad enough, not reading the NIE report for such a historical moment is outright criminal.

What? A gal can't relax and have a beer after working her tail off for 10 months? She's the real thing. GO HILLARY! Hang in there! By going on despite the unfair press and patriarchal biases against you — you help all women, even those who don't get it, Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton were reviled by patriarchal men AND women — but they hung in there and helped ALL. They were reviled too and told time and time they didn't know when to quit. I LOVE YOU HILLARY FOR JUST STANDING STRONG.

Note how this appalling story on Obama's lies on his stands with NAFTA is getting the page 5. Why is it that CNN not headline the story on their front page? Why is it that a story on Hillary's tone of voice and clothing can be called as a front page story….yet Obama's blantant lies to his supporters are hidden withint he pages? Can CNN say gender bias? I can!

Since none of us were in the Senate at the time of the Iraq vote, including Barack Obama, therefor not privy to the information given to the Congress, how can anyone critisize how the vote went? Has everyone out there forgotten how things were back then? The American people were out for blood and we not particularly interested in whose blood was shed. They just didn't realize it would be so many of our own young men and women shedding that blood! Hindsight is always 20/20. Had Senator Obama followed up on his speech in 2002 with some sort of action, then I would say he has a right to talk about this vote. However, considering he said in 2004 that he did not know how he would have voted, I do not believe he has a valid point. I believe Hillary Clinton should stay in the race until all of the primaries are completed. Let all of the votes be counted!

I CAN NOT BELIEVE THE MEDIA IS SAYING THAT HRC HAS NO CHANCE IN TEXAS & OHIO,
COME ON TEXAS & OHIO PROVE THEM WRONG
WE DO NEED CHANGE BUT WITH EXPERIENCE
THINK PEOPLE
WHO WILL GET THE JOB DONE

GO HILLARY 08

PLEASE POST

please print my last comment and shame on you for being so bias , hillary has taken all the big statesny,nj,ca,ma,fl.and she will prevail in texas and ohio.dont worry guy's she isn't going to take your pants from you,she has her own.if you want all the kudos for obama we can handle that,but you still owe america the truth on his relatinnship with resko.

All Clinton fellow supporters just remember most of the OBAMA supporters also voted TWICE for BUSH so qestion their judgement!

Some accurately point out all the flag officers that have supported Hillary. The will of the people can be measured more accurately by the Million Plus that donated their own money into Barack's campaign. Flag Officer support on one scale, Super Delegate support on the other. I hear the fat lady warming up.

Jake from Dallas, that's some nice anecdotal evidence you have there. And you called them stupid too? You're the man! You definitely DON'T live up to the dumb hick Texan stereotype!

Please …when you grow up don't have children. We have enough idiots in this world. -We'll See!!!

Exactly my sentiment!! If you can't care for yourself, then don't burden the rest of us with your offspring.

Goolsbee disputed a section that read: "Noting anxiety among many U.S. domestic audiences about the U.S. economic outlook, Goolsbee candidly acknowledged the protectionist sentiment that has emerged, particularly in the Midwest, during the primary campaign. He cautioned that this messaging should not be taken out of context and should be viewed as more about political positioning than a clear articulation of policy plans."

Imagine….a candidate chastising the ugliness of old politics and uses lies against an opponent while back-peddling it with a foreign governement. If Obama has the audacity to operate like this now while he is only a candidate for the presidency….what would he have the audacity to lie to voters about as the president? The more I hear about his back-room tactics the more I fear for this nation.

BILL RICHARDSON OWES HIS POLITICAL CAREER TO BILL AND OBVIOUSLY WOULD SUPPORT HILLARY IF HE SAW ANY CHANCE FOR HER WINNING.
OBVIOUSLY, AS ANYONE ELSE, HE DOES NOT, SO HE SEND HER A MESSAGE TO QUIT !

TOM

EXPERIENCE – The more experiences you have, the more able you should be to handle problems, Change for change sake, is not necessarily a good thing. Obama keeps opening each rally with the statement -CHANGE- but what kind of change does he really mean and can he accomplish what he says? Our country is in dire straits, we need a strong leader and one who has had world-wide experience which Hillary has, Obama, does not.
GENDER – Throughout our history we have had all male presidencies. Females need a chance to show that they are capable of running this country. HILLARY CAN..

WOW – I hear Senator Obama people parroting what he says as if it is true! She didn't read the report? Geezz – I guess Kerry and the majority of there Senators didn't either?

Wake up duh! Because Senator Obama says it does NOT make it true – because he says it means that it is most like SPIN…..anything for a vote.

If Obama had lost 11contest in a row during this primary, the media and democratic establishment would be telling him to step down. Hillary is getting a free ride with these double standards.

I think the whole primary process really neglects voters' concerns…by the time somebody is nominated, it is too late…Bill Clinton privatized Sallie Mae and other student lenders in 1997, so that the chickens are now coming home to roost, charging students who cannot find jobs exorbitant interest rates….

Our pro-corporation, anti-govt. ethos also still requires borrowers who are bankrupt to still have to somehow pay for their student loans. How are corporations going to meet the bottom line without any consumers who have jobs, and thus without any disposable income????

Many doctors practicing today never paid back their student loans…..I don't think a candidate can overlook their own policies of the past if they are seeking to use this time period as "experience"…it is a double standard…..

Maybe she likes beer.

SHAMOUS
"So the question is, Which president would YOU willingly give your trust and go forth into battle to fight for?"

OBVIOUSLY McCain

TOM

"

ALL OF THIS HAS BECOME A RIDICULOUS TRAVESTY!

I am so tired of people mentioning Florida and Michigan…THEY DON'T COUNT!!

It is part of the rules that Hillary agreed to…Now that she is behind in the delegates she wants to dispute the rules..???

Why isn't there any coverage by CNN on Obamas NAFTA back room deal with Canada???? His top advisor told them, what he said was just talk. His statement to re-do Nafta was all talk to sway voters.
Change you can count on, yes you can, yes you can????????

Hillary should get out of the race, simply put, we are tired of her attack ads, we are tired of her whining about the media, and we are tired of hearing about 35 years experience that never was……. and hiding behind her husband and running on his experience. Go away, little girl………

–Hillary Show your Tax returns
–Stop acting like u are the only one tthat can wake up at 3am
–This is not UK or CUBA we dont need same families rulling
–U have also plaigarised Obama's words
–Hillary and other experienced washington folks put us in this economic,war, and political mess.
–We need unity and Hillary will not unite us.
–She has too many faces, we are confused.

OBAMA 08

Did someone crown Obama president, when I was in the shower????

Jake I'll call your 10 and raise you 30 (my friends and family) voting for Obama! And the Hillary supporters I know, all of 4 say they are only voting for her because she is a Woman and they want a "seat change" they also said if Hillary wasn't running they'd pick Obama. I said they're stupid. They also had nothing to say in return. Go figure

'Obama 08′

Carl Berstein recently said on CNN that Hillary would make the best darn Secretary of Health and Human Services. Sounds to me like the "same ole-same ole'. Don't give the brightest, best prepared candidate the top spot, give her the fifth spot.! How can Barack bring us togehter when he has presided over a campaign that uses the same old sexest comments we women have endured forever??
Wolf Blittzer, please do let your panels get away with saying such sexist things as you did with Carl after that debate.

If Hillary takes Ohio and does well in Texas any thing can happen with Pennsylvania looming on the horizon. I think Obama has wishful thinking that she is getting desperate. Tuesday could play right into her hands. I think alot of the Obama hype is cooling off. Maybe people are starting to see the "All Fluff, No Stuff" canidate for what he really is, and not the media incarnation of him as the second coming.

im just glad bush is almost gone , anyone could have done a better job than him. Im pushing for obama but wont be disapointed if hilary gets it either, happy to see bush go

Not to mention the hateful feeling and opinions of some people on here. People should try to respond more thoughtfully, rather then so feeling and opinion driven. This is a useless forum if these Obama supporters or Hillary haters just throw insults and feeling/sensation rather then thought. A motivationa speaker, and a young pup that he is, 2 years in the US Senate and didn't even vote on the Iraq war because he wasn't even in the US Senate yet. How convenient, to say your against the war when you weren't even in the US Senate to vote for it. He was probably for the war like many others, just like the majority that was in the Senate. There were many Senators that were fooled and tricked on the vote to go to war. Many Democratic Senators voted for the war, Hillary was not the only one. Not to mention Barack voted to approved Bush funding for the war after he got in.

From the news, I can only get the impression that Obama has got who who endorsements, seems clinton does not have any one support her.

Thanks to Louis, I still know there are a lot of top officials support her.

McNeil,
What sore losers you Clintonites are!
11-0.What part of that you guys don't get?
You now think if she wins Texas and Ohio, which will make it 11-2, the score will be even.You guys are simply delusional!

Jake from Dallas…How stupid and hypocritical your statement is

"My family (altogether, 10 people) ALL voted for Hillary. And so did my relatives and friends.

I only know 3 Obama supporters; all 3 are Black and said they feel obligated to vote for a Black candidate, but said, if he wasn't running, Hillary would be their choice."

To say that all 3 Obama supporters that you know are voting for Obama because he is black is simply hypocritical. So, you and your family/friends voted for Hillary because she is white?!?! Or maybe you voted for Hillary because she is still married to Bill Clinton?!?!

Grow up and stop looking backward!

In response to Sharon regarding the NAFTA issue in Canada. Don't reduce to distortion and part truths. You sound like your girl Hillary. CNN did cover it and showed both sides. The aid in Obama's camp says that what was reported by Canada was misinterperted. Wether it was intentional or not is the question. No inuendos.

case's commnet "If Hillary wins I will vote for McCain."
Dont forget other people will say the same way, if Barack wins they vote for Mc Cain.

End up Republican will be in WH again… Think about it.

I resent anyone suggesting that Hillary Clinton drop out of this race. First of all, why should she. This race is split right down the middle. She has just as much a chance to win as you-know-who.

I am looking forward to casting my vote for Hillary in April 2008. My 18-year-old daughter is very much looking forward to casting her very first vote, which will be for Hillary.

Why shouldn't the rest of the country get to choose who they want first. Obama and his cronies need to get a grip. How long do they think Obama will be able to ride the wave. Get real.

Hang in there HIllary, don't let the media determine this election. I will be proud to vote for you tomorrow!

Go on Hillary!!!

Ashley…note I did not mention Hillary.
But if the cup was in the other hand, we would be hearing about Obama and his admitted drug use as a teen. Then we would hear the cries of him drinking a beer when he has a youth audience.
Does Obama even drink?
To be honest I don't even know what is in that red cup in Hillary's hand.

I do find it hillarious that Hillary decried hypothetical situations during the debate, yets runs a whole ad devoted to a hyptothetical situation.

Better fill that cup up to the rim.

I pray that tomorrow will be the end of Hillary's shameless attacks on her democratic rival. If she fails to win both TX and OH by wide margins (the polls are now indicating that she will not), I hope she will finally consider putting her party first and help Barack defeat John McCain.

If she wins Texas and Ohio by about 5 points each, she will still need to beat Obama by at least 25 points in Pennsylvania and almost every other state in order to catch up. Some people forget that she was up by 20 points in Texas and Ohio just two weeks ago and her leads have evaporated into a dead heat. She is trending DOWN NOT UP.

Hillary is staying in the race thanks mostly to the over 50 crowd. Trying to get old people not to vote for Hillary is like trying to convince them to give up eating Kraft cheese. It doesn't matter what you say, Kraft is the only cheese they know and therefore the only cheese worth tasting.

Obama 08!

I have finally decided that if Hillary is NOT on the ticket in November, I will not vote. This way, at least I know I had NOTHING to do with putting either an inexperienced democrat or another repubican in the White House. Or, maybe I should just ask my son his opinion, next time he calls from Iraq.

To Karen,

I can't name one piece of legislation or accomplishment that either Hillary or McCain has done! Let's be fair here.

Hey McNiel – my thoughts exactly – I am sick of hearing about his stance on "not voting for the war"! He voted to fund the war!! That's a fact. Go Hillary

I think Obama will win this thing….but to be fair, we should not force Hillary out of the race….it is only fair to let her stay in till after tuesday, or even if they split tuesday, then she should stay in till there is a definite winner after all the states have votes….that's the point of the system (and I am saying this as an Obama supporter)

I encourage all Obama supporters to play fair, stop calling Hillary names, and show people why we support Obama (because we do not succumb to negativity!!!)

that said

GO OBAMA!!!!! VOTE OBAMA IN 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND 12!!!!!!!!!!

I like how Obama in the Ohio debate looked at Hillary when both were asked questions. He is just a parrot. Without Hillary to answer for him and his speech writers to give him sound bytes, he is nothing.

Hey LOGAN CIRCLE:

So Obama is being "honest" when he tells Ohio that NAFTA is bad….he'll change it….then his advisor tells CANADA that whatever they are hearing from Obama in the primary….just take it as POLITCAL MANEUVERING???????

LOGAN CIRCLE……I would call that an outright LIE to OHIO……Obama IS OLD SCHOOL POLITICS AT IT'S BEST!

Mrs Clinton truely has workable solutions and has built support from the services commanders because of her realistic and practicable approaches to PROBLEMS. She has the support of many world leaders….unlike he opponent.

Mr Obama is excellent at taking shots at thos e who actually make decisions based on information and to the benefit of not only the USA but countries and peoplesinvolved.

I hope the voters see Mr Obama for the person he really is…..just "Present" as his senate record shows.

Please fight to the last minute for us, Hillary!
All the way to the convention!

We can't stand this election without you!

It looks like the generals are like Clinton. They all are supporting the deaths of those of our children who died in this war that was executed on poor judgement. I am not stupid to repeat the same mistake when I vote.

8 years and no universal health insurance, but a year in the white house again will get it done. right!

After tomorrow the Clinton bashing can stop and we can all get ready for the task at hand: Republican bashing — which is far more fun, advantageous, and most importantly TRUE than Clinton bashing.

They are ( Obama and Clinto are makeing the American people think and it is pulling us together we as apeople well never again tolerate a disfunctional goverment go Obama

This party is more divided than ever. And now some of the media(hint.. C. (cough) N. (cough)N. would like Clinton to step down after March 4th. ,Please! If Huckabee won't concede to McCain,why should she? I would love for this to come down to the superdelegates, which the Obama camp are afraid of.

Hillary will win hand down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

By By Obama!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jake, need I remind you that prior to Senator Obama's proven viability as a serious contender Senator Clinton was clearly carrying the support of the African-American vote-were they stupid then, or did they just turn stupid when they realized that they finally have a candidate of color who has a better than good chance of winning the primaries.

I suppose the women who are supporting Hillary are stupid too, based on your logic. Or were they smart when they supported Hillary then switched to Obama?

Oh, I get it, you are just a common garden variety racist and sexist.

NObama 08 is the best slogan right now! Hillary is the candidate with the best ideas. Obama is full of rhetoric and he is a great orator! That's all he has on his side. America needs to make history….vote for a woman in charge! And this comes from a guy in the good old boy system of the South!

Hillary supporter: If Obama wins the nomination, first time we will vote for a republican, McCain.

I am going to wait and see about Tuesday's results and if Hillary Clinton does not continue, as a woman over 60, I will stay home on election day. I am disgusted with this campaign and the way the men have literally gone to Obama because he is male. Don't tell me it's his brillance or his experience, I don't buy it – It is because he is a man period. Hillary lets knock their socks off and stay in through the convention and have a slug fest. We are behind you all the way.

I apologize to the women. My last comment was not to insult women. It is fine to have a woman as a president but, Hillary would be and is the wrong choice. She stands for old politics and lies to the public. Everyone else turned in to show their tax returns but Hillary still hiding hers.
When she demanded a debate and got it, she was happy and now complains if she is asked the 1st question. Everything was ok as long as she was ahead and now that she is losing, she wants rules changed! She is a weak candidate. She accepts $ from special interest! That alone should tell you, she is not for the BLUE COLLAR Worker!
Come ON! Women can do much better than Hillary!

Hillary you've got nearly 11 million people who have voted for you not including the hundreds of thousand who voted for you in MI and FL.

You've got millions more who will vote for you in TX, OH, VT, and RI.

Keep up the fight!

your worry,hillary,is how will you keep all the political promises you made if you lose!!!

I'm a Republican, and watching this catfight is SO cool!

You Dems are doing all our work for us.

Hill, PLEASE stay in the race.

By the time of the general election, both of these people will be
such damaged goods, by their own hand(s), that NOBODY will
want either one of them sitting in the Oval Office.

We are literally dancing in the streets!

Hillary has proved that she will stop at nothing to get the nomination. Hell, if she is ready to sue over the Texas caucuses, she will not hesitate to take her divisive, desperate tactics to the national level.

I am an OBAMA supporter. I do think these two great candidates should come to a meeting of the minds. Each day they attach each other they give Republicans more fuel for the National elections. Watch — you'll hear the same words they are throwing at each other coming from the McCains mouth. We can only have one candidate in play — time to choose which on.

I vote for OBAMA!

Sean: O did much more than everything above you mentioned, and did it dirty. Why bother to vote for him?

To Vi : …. I live in Michigan, and I can tell you, we are PISSED OFF that our vote doesn't count! If Florida and Michigan votes were to count, we'd be looking at an entirely different race right now.

A number of Obama supporters didn't bother to vote cuz they were told it didn't matter anyway. You can say the same for Hillary's supporters. The problem is NO ONE knows how many DIDN't vote, and would have, so the current results mean nothing. Both states are now completely dis-enfranchised! You can't blame Obama, and Hillary also has no right to seat those delegates. Nice job, DNC!

Obama '08!

Let's hope that Hillary does the right thing for the democratic party and bows out after Tuesday. The divisiveness of the party is hurting our chances against McCain everyday that it lingers on. Obama will be a great leader.

"We'll see what happens" if … Hillary ever speaks the truth … Or let's us in on what all her experience is about. Even Wolfson couldn't come up with anything on this one over the weekend. Just a nice long pause … like her campaign.

Go Hillary; you are the best. You care about our safety. Obama only can make speeches about events that occurred when the was not even in the U.S. Senate. Since being in the Senate he has copied the way Hillary has voted on the Iraq war. Hillary made the vote to protect the American people after the tragedy on 911.

Hillary will lock up the nomination in June when she gets all 63 delegates in Puerto Rico.

GO LATINOS!

TEXAS FOR HILLARY!!!

You rock Hillary…We love you!!!!

I see Obama as the great DIVIDER not a uniter as he is portraying himself. He has cleverly brainwashed the people in this country. As George Washington warned"Our most fierce enemy will come from within".

Obama outspends Hillary 2 to 1 in Ohio, is coming off an 11 win streak, and still can't win Ohio.

Obama is a fraud. Everyone gets excited that he has brought all these new people into the party. Yeah, he did it by ignoring everyone else. It's like Obama and his supporters are Democrats by name only- they stole our party from us!

I am mad that I did not get to vote for Obama and will be madder if the Michigan votes get counted. I am also a veteran and know it was mismanagement by the Generals that has messed up this war. No, we should never have gone in to Iraq, but since we did, we should have done it right.

Clinton has earned our support by working for civil rights with actions and deeds since her high school and college days. What has Obama done for Civil Rights, or for that matter, Women's Rights, Children's Rights, etc. As for ethics in government, Clinton was on the front lines for the Watergate investigations. Where was Obama then?

He's bright, educated, and quite competent but has done little to earn the presidency yet. I have great hopes for him in the future.

I'm tired of the pettiness from Obama supporters. Now, having a beer at a BBQ suddenly turns an event into a frat party? Meow! That's the sort of cheap shot that just makes Obama supporters look foolish and snobby.

Go Obama, keep your eye on the prize, it time for change……..It not over until it over, go Hillary

Nursing a beer? I'm not sure this is the best way to target the young voters….

Sen. Obama is so desperate to divert attention from his limited national security experience that he's not just misleading voters about Sen. Clinton, he's also misleading voters about his own supporters. That is not change you can believe in."

Last Sunday, Sen. Obama attacked Hillary on Iraq by invoking Sen. Rockefeller and incorrectly saying that the WVA Senator opposed the 2002 Iraq vote. The truth is that Sen. Rockefeller voted for the war resolution – not against it as Sen. Obama suggested to the people of Ohio. This seems to be an Obama campaign talking point since its top strategist also claimed that Sen. Rockefeller voted against the war resolution when he was on national television on Sunday.

STAY TO THE LAST VOTE IS CAST. DNC made this mess, they need to live by the results. Hillary Clinton is the senior, experienced canidate here, no way should she step aside as BO will not have the need delegates either. Further more, he does not recognize the FL and MI voters, he should step down if anyone should.
He does not win the General election without Clinton, HOWEVER Clinton can win the General election without BO.

I would run this all the way until August, BO is with the big boys now, lets see what he got. MY BET IS NOTHING without Clinton help.
Clinton Voters are not supporting BO now or in November, DNC saw to that with FL and MI, and superdelegates not addressing the cross over votes.

WOW!!! that's great considering Obama was trailing behind Hillary by over 20 points in Ohio and Texas.

Great work Obama.

We really need changed in this country.

Obama '08

So she had a beer!…So what!!!…And why on earth does this actually bother anyone?…For the life of me, I have no idea why so many people hate this woman…I happen to believe that whether it's Obama or Clinton that gets the election (and one of them will) it will be a hell of an improvement on what we've had for the past 7 years.

all hillary supporters think……..again …and again…… think…………….. think

i ask you only to look at her face it changes every time like a programmed robot
and also check if someone is tested enough, have experience of 35 years, how come he loses straight 11 states?????????????

Wise….wise up.
Its the IDES of March, not eyes. March 15.
The fad of Obama is wearing off with the press.
More deals are done in the cloak room than on the senate floor. Nothing will CHange.

Who do you want answering the phone at 3 a.m. … while nursing a beer?

Wolfson, Bill Clinton, Gloria Steinem, not exactly helping to change the image of their beloved candidate.

Hill-ar-y Clin-ton:(n) one who is distinguished by being, or having others on her behalf be, disingenuous, hypocritical, dishonest or subscribe to the practices of demagoguery. Slang: A real loser.

Ex: A hillary clinton would not be suitable to run a great nation.
Also see: George W. Bush

Antonym: "Barack Obama"

Ok, you win, you won't post my comment because it is positive to Hillary and negative to obama…typical for CNN.

REPUBLICANS ARE SCARED TO DEATH OF HILLARY!

Hillary will go after every ratbstrd that put us in this war that we can't get out of. And I don't mean the people that voted for it. I mean the people that designed the invasion in such a way that we can't pull out quickly without doing some serious damage.

Hey vi… you say "My mother always tought me "if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all."
followed by "I live in Michigan, and I can tell you, we are PISSED OFF that our vote doesn't count!"

Perhaps you should take your momma's advice. does "Look to the plank in your own eye" ring a bell?
Just sayin.

By reading some of the comments Hillary supporters are making on this site… I know one thing is true.. she is targeting the Less Educated for a reason!!! Women are voting for Hillary cause she is a women but not this women… For all the people who say if Obama wins they will vote for McCain who cares.. for every Dem we lose we will gain a smart Independent or a Rep. who has seen the light.

i love how everyone makes it a point to reference bill clinton's infidelity or some other demeaning comment.

I bet half of you voted for Clinton in the 90s.

At any rate, I'm with Hillary until the end, and when/if she drops out, I'm signing up to johnmccain.com. I respect John McCain more than Obama. And I'd hate for my first vote in a general election to go to a Republican, but I'd also hate for it to go to an inexperienced candidate. Actually, I'm looking forward to what the GOP has on Obama; I want to watch him go down.

My entire family in Columbus, OH is voting for Hillary tomorrow, and my friends and I are doing the same here in Cincinnati.

And I guarantee you if Obama is the nominee, Ohio will be red in November. But, you know, at least he has CT and a whole swell of western states that would never vote Democrat in a general election.

Sukie. You wanted to know if anyone works. Yes, they are called Republicans.

Losing 11 states in a row should have been enough to force Clinton out of the race. She has no credibility with me after losing so many states. How can she now say she should be the nominee? If Obama had lost 11 in a row, the media and the Democratic party would have thrown Obama out of the race a long time ago.

If Hillary is ahead and Obama is behind just like that, do you say give it up to Obama?
I know you flip-flop your argument, Obamatology.

Think, Obama is the only hope of Republican

The one power granted to a president that does not require congressional approval is the ability to send troops into harms way.
(A declaration of war does require congressional approval.)

So the question is, Which president would YOU willingly give your trust and go forth into battle to fight for?

My family (altogether, 10 people) ALL voted for Hillary. And so did my relatives and friends.

I only know 3 Obama supporters; all 3 are Black and said they feel obligated to vote for a Black candidate, but said, if he wasn't running, Hillary would be their choice. I said they're stupid. They had nothing to say in return!

Don't give up. Ignore John Kerry that failure who left without sticking to the end. That was humiliating. Be stronger Hillary and stick to it til the end.

PLease please stay Hillary! We need you!

How can Hillary claim to have any good judgement when she DID NOT READ the NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE estimate on IRAQ before VOTING to KILL THOUSANDS of our service men and several more Iraqis.
We're in trouble if she ever gets close to the white house again.

It's about time she finally addresses reality…she may not win!! But I don't understand how she can be so humble one minute and then release a negative ad the next. Her campaign is crumbling. Hopefully she'll recognize that the battle is to have democrats gain control and in the end that's bigger than whether she will be the one to lead the change. Get it together Hillary, you'll walk out a bigger winner if you are the one to step down for the good of the Democratic Party!!

Is that Ted Danson on her plane?

I loved where you guys mentioned she had a beer in her hand. Hopefully she doesn't get too drunk tonight cuz Bill may wonder off in the darkness.

I do hope though if she does drop out that Obama gives her a cabinet position.

But once we know Obama has the Democratic nomination its over because theres no way McCain will win and that is what many analysts are predicting.

Brighter years are coming back to America!

Hillary can keep her beer. Obama smokes the herb on his plane.

CBS has just posted a story about obama retracting his earlier statement that a conversation didn't take place with CTV about nafta. Now he is saying that he was misunderstood.

CTV has produced documentation proving the conversation took place. You should all head over there and read it. You won't hear it hear thats for sure.

Shame on you, Hillary Clinton! Get out of this race which has been won by Barack. I guess you are from Arkansas and like Huckabee you do not believe in math

I will be ready for a beer on day one, two beers on day two and a keg on day three if Clinton is the nominee. not in celebration but dispare.
If "yes we can", "change" I can only "hope" The change is not pennys.

It would be intresting to find out who has most popular votes including Florida. I am not cetain, but believe that Sen Clinton is ahead.

Please respond if someone has facts.

I am an independent voter. I just want to say that if Mr. Obama is the dem nom, I will vote for John McCain, because frankly Obama's foreign policy is really a non policy.

All of you Obama supporters are only sending the Repulicans to the White House…. its a game. There is no way that Obama will be able to hold a debate with someone he can't say "ditto" with. He has been in the Senate three years and spent how much of this time campaigning. I can't understand the hoopla. Yes, we all want change….. but putting an inexperienced person with questionable ties/actions is not very smart.

Hmmmm…we'll see what happens. I'm betting your lawyers are preparing your lawsuit against our great state as you speak!

What you really mean is you will see how you can try and manipulate or steal this election from the average everyday voter in America now don't you Hillary?

We have another option to cast our ballots for while they still count for something. Thank God we have another option.

Hillary all the way! Madam President-to-Be, if you need a push getting through those convention center doors, call me and my girl gang, we'll get you there! Never give up, and never, never give up!

I don't think there's anything wrong with Senator Clinton having a beer. I do think, however, that I would have a problem with her continuing to stay in the race for very much longer. It's not good for the Democrats to continue to bicker and attack each other while McCain is ready and waiting. If I felt that she had a realistic chance of overtaking Senator Obama, I wouldn't advise dropping out, but I don't. If, after tomorrow, Senator Clinton isn't clearly favored by all four states, I hope, for the good of the party, that she will drop out of the election so that we can prepare for November.

It is posted. See the Political Ticker, which ominously ends up at the top of the Ticker the day before the primaries. The media has never been in love with Obama. They are doing a bait and switch-flower him with praise and then at the last minute bash him so they won't look like they're being racist. Now, the media can feel good about themselves and go back to the Hillary the Queen coverage they were doing before January.

Closely watching

Try googling Rezko and Obama – you'll get equally informative information . . .

I don't understand why Hillary supporters and her campaign think that the people who are voting for Obama are stupid and dumb. There is nothing wrong with hoping and wanting change. Washington has been full of experienced people and still has failed. We need a uniter who can try to let everyone talk to each other. So to the people who think I am dumb for voting for Obama, stop. Just because you last name isn't Clinton, doesn't mean that you can not get things in Washington.

Obama '08

Obama all the way

Maybe you should do your homework. Only a few of the military "leaders" backing Clinton have any combat experience. Most are desk jockeys. My husband is in the USMC. He has deployed three times to combat zones and will likely deploy again. I certainly won't sleep well at night knowing she's being advised by them. No, thanks.

Rodney from Dallas, all i can say it won't be kimberly disappointed on Tues March 4th. Guess who that leaves? Let's turn the page on Hillary and supporters like Rodney who would rather see us held back instead of moving forward.

Hillary won't be able to answer the phone at 3:00 AM……..because, it will take her too long to fix her hair, put her make up on etc, etc ,etc……do you think she would allow herself to be seen at 3:00 AM.

ANd its not CNN or the media or whatever boogeyman you HIllbots come up with that are telling her to drop out if she doesnt win big tomorrow, its Bill Richardson and Kerry, two big guns in the democratic party. So yes, even her party is now telling her to drop out. If she doesn't she's the mike huckabee of the democratic race.

do not give up Hillary . Go all the way

.

Obama is so desperate to divert attention from his limited national security experience that he’s not just misleading voters about Sen. Clinton, he’s also misleading voters about his own supporters. That is not change you can believe in. -Phil Singer
.
.

Obama was quoted saying "He is tired of answering questions about his religion"…. I'm sorry, but I've seen his speeches and he totally goes around his upbringing. Obama supporters really need to think about who they are wanting to run the U.S. Military. It's hillarious that the only time Obama is investigated on anything is when Hillary brings it up. Way to go CNN. You are doing an awesome job with the unbiased coverage (NOT!). Wake up America! Ohio,Texas, Rhode Island, and Vermont, you are the last chance.

Hillary '08

Rose- that's some ignorant commentary there. way to go.

Karen G, well if Hannity from Fox News did it, it must be credible!

Bye Bye Hillary………

Hillary will not be ahead in pledged delegates after Tuesday,what's the point?
I see fighting if you have a cahnce to even catch up,but this is not the case.
Richardson,knows who's going to end up Wednesday with the most pledged delegates,that will be Obama!!!!
If Obama had lost 11 in a row,we wouldn't be having this conversation.
IF this goes to the convention,It will most definitely split the party.
The huge turnouts will disappear if Hillary somehow steals the nomination. So how can she possibly win the general?
Womens votes aren't going to cut it!

Clinton is superior IMHO and I will vote for her twice in Texas!

GO HILLARY!!!!!!!!!

Ashley…so true. If we could vote an EX-drunk into office ~~~Bush, I think Hillary's one innocent drink is okay!

Mike H. look up, they did cover it.

shamous: Why must you "whine" about hillary having a beer in her hand. I am sure Obama drinks! Heck, he just gave up smoking to run for president, i know those nicotine fits are killing him right now.

I wonder why the media has not reported on Hillary's strong support of the expansion of the H1-B Visa program. The program that brings in cheap replacement workers for American IT jobs?

Clinton is making a big deal about answering the phone at 3AM.. What would really happen is Bill would jump up and say Hill, go back to sleep. I'll handle it and besides it may be an intern.

The end is near. Let's hope to have a competent and courageous leader!!!

Obama, change you can count on my A–, He tells the people one thing then tells the Canadians another. Back room meeting with them, telling them his talk was just talk. Well, I've been saying he is all talk form the beginning.

Just visited Moveon.org. It is fully committed to Obama. So it would seem that George Soros may end up buying the White House after all.

I want to see Hillary re-work her commercial in Texas to something like this:
The commercial pans in showing Obama as president and he reaches for the red phone at 3AM and he is seen calling Hillary to ask her for her advice at 3AM (since he can't seem to do anything but agree and mimic Hillary). Then the ominous voice over "Who will you trust to answer the call?"

Just my 2 cents.

Hillary will play her hand to the point of distroying the dem party, then when its absoultly clear that she will lose, Hillary will bow out, "for the parties sake", as if she had done it gracefully two months ago like Romney did.

Obama will lose because of the factured party and Hillary will be back four years from now to pick up the pieces and put forth her self image as the agent of change and experience.., again.

The dems can't win because their underlying dem motto is always, me first.

Rezko on trail today. Chicago is the most corrupted place in USA.

Obama promises to reform Washington, how much effort did he put into reforming Chicago and Illinois? He served in the state legislature for seven years. Did he attempt to start a reform movement, as Bobby Jindal has done in Louisiana? Or did his close relationship to a fixer like Rezko have something to do with any lack of crusading zeal?

Wake up, American??/????

Obama can't reform his own corrupted state, and he is one of them, how he going to "change" washington, JUST bring all his Chicago friend to Washington.

Vote for Hillary!

How much is the Obama team paying you dropouts to blog. It shows, it really shows. Please …when you grow up don't have children. We have enough idiots in this world.

Has anyone else noticed that Hillary has served in elected public office for 7 years, while Obama has served in elected public office for 11 years? Has anyone else noticed that Obama gives plenty of details about issues and policy, available for download on his website? The idea that he's a rookie with no plan just doesn't wash.

Hillary is going to do great, we love you here in Texas!!

Yes, there's an enormous difference between Hillary and Barack. She can and will win in November. He cannot and will not. First she needs victory in Ohio and Texas (Vermont and Rhode Island would be icing on the cake). If Democrats wish to retake the White House, they better vote for Clinton at least as much as the Republicans and Rep-Independents will vote for Obama tomorrow.

Two new Ohio polls today. I don't trust the polls anymore. but if Hillary was behind, they would be getting headlines by the media. Here she is ahead, but there is silence. American Research Group Hillary 51 to OBama 44 and Suffolk University Hillary 52 to 40 for Obama. Google Rezko, New York Times article, dated March 2, 2008.

"America wants an honest president" Then we will never have a president. They all lie. Even your "Saint" Obama. I will take public financing…well maybe I'll take public financing…well maybe not.
We will re-due NAFTA…wink…wink.

Please give me a break. Obama is not so honest.

Hillary should not bow out. Since when was only 100 delegates a mandate?!

Let everyone vote before we have a winner annointed, especially if no one reaches the magic number 2025.

For all you folks upset about the Iraq war vote in relation to Clinton and Obama, I have one question. Obama was not in a position to vote either yeah or nay for the war. However, he came out against the war in a speech (what else is new). Since he has been in the Senate, he has about the same record as Hillary on the war. So if he is such a change agent, what change has he brought on this issue since he has been in the Senate? What has he changed?

Choose Dignity and Fortitude, Vote for Barack Obama for President!

.
OHIO, TEXAS :

Support Hillary, the true qualified Democratic candidate

YES Hillary !!!! NO to Obama.

.

Hillary needs to give up already.

Stop the negative campaigning.
Stop DEMANDING that we vote for you.
Stop the whining.
Stop insisting that your 3am phone call will save the world.

I'd be more inclined to vote for you, Hillary, had you not done everything above.

if obama had a beer in his hand while being interview, you guys will have had a cow, but it ok for Hillary. It's just another reason not to vote for her.

Billary is whistling in the graveyard .

It is with a feeling of deep disappointmnete if not dsimay that I have have to admit to my self or rather reconcile now ,after what I have seen for a fact in the behaviour apptterns of, that the two people whom I stood by all these years ie Hillary and Bill clinton are part of the venomous thrash that America churns out in , fortunately in small numbers, but unfortunately still fraudulently destructive of a country with so much hope for the world.

Ruben, I am from TX and she has a lot of supporters down here. I trust Hillary will win my great state!

Hillary's beer: $2.50
Lewinsky's soiled skirt: $15
Bill Clinton's whereabout at 3 A.M: $500
Nafta: $1000000 in job loss
Hillary's concession speech: priceless.

Just say NO to O.

Hillary, we are behind you 110%.

By the way ,
What about her tax return……………!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This campaign has just gotten so mean. So much for a dream ticket. We took what were supposed to be awesome firsts and turned it into a nightmare. If these are all democrats posting, they should all be ashamed of themselves.

In any event, nobody is pushing Mike Huckabee to leave the race and he has no way of becoming the nominee. Why would we want to push Hillary out when she's not down by much?

Hang in there, Hillary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think at this point, Billary is a spoiler and she is devisive. I think come March 4th, if she can't get enough delegates to trump Obama's, she just need to pack up and GO AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

Billary has given more ammo to the republicans to tear the dems come November general election. It's becoming personal for her and not for the good of the democratic party!

VOTE OBAMA to make Hillary Get Out of the race FAST!

GO OBAMA!

.
Hillary is the true qualified Democratic candidate.

=== Hillary will win !!!! ======
.
.

are hillary supporters clinton supporters? or are they demorcrats? to be saying you will not support obama.i think we know the answer to that.

Hillary,

it is time to bow out gracefully.

Thanks,

America

Hey folks – like it or not, we should probably consider that we might need to unite around one of the candidates – possibly after Tuesday – maybe later. The point is: Do we really want this bickering to drag down having a Dem in the WH next year?

I am glad to hear that Hillary is a beer drinker…kudos.

However, this will not affect my vote! lol

Also, I hope this won't become a long, drawn out process if she ends up losing the big two on Tuesday.

For those Obama fans out there, what do you seriously know about him?? He bites off of Hillary's answers we all see that in the debates. And thats why he doesn't want to debate Hillary because HES HORRIBLE AT IT! If we are tired of a President like Bush than we have to vote HILLARY! She tells us Americans everyday what she will do down to every detail. Obama is too general, yes I agree that we have those problems but what is he going to do about it??? Tuesday is going to be very interesting for everyone but the smart choice is to vote Hillary, the right person to be commander in chief!

LETS GO HILLARY!!

Wow – she must have read my post yesterday

Woman Power!!

Stay in it Hillary, we need a woman in the White House. Lets lead this nation and our households. You said it best, with you there it will change the nation thinks about the roles of gender.

I'm for Obama and have been since before he announced he was running, but regardless of who gets the nomination, we all have to support that person. Either that or we get another four years of Bush in the form of McCain. For some reason people are looking at as a "watch I'll show you!" and vote for McCain rather than Obama or Clinton. You forget, you will be suffering as well.

When it is time to withdraw, one beer stands clear. It's MILLER TIME!!

Obama '08

Dignity is a word she doesn't know, unfortunately. She will drag the Democratic Party down with her if nobody stops her. If she doesn't big win in both Texas & Ohio, she should quit and for once, think about her country first.

Is there any doubt left as to the willingness of the Clintons to take everyone down with them.., if necessay??

To Hillary, it's all just a game and she'll do anything to win, even destroying her own party. That is why the big name Democratic leaders support Barack and not Hillary. The Clinton's have many *silent* enemies within the party.

Many of her so call allies/friends in the party only stand by her (and Bill) because they fear them for their popularity with voters. But now that they are falling faster than an asteriod, people are getting the courage to break away from them.

Hillary Clinton is furious that America has not agreed to her coronation. She doesn’t understand why voters are rejecting her and embracing Barack Obama. She just doesn’t get it. Even after all is said and one on Tuesday, she will still be Hillary, angry, sarcastic, stubborn, secretive, arrogant, mired in the past, victim of the media, and still firmly convinced that she is uniquely entitled to the Democratic Party nomination and the presidency.

@pd4Hillary Barack leads in the populare vote by a million votes so what are you talking about Hillary has more supporters. I THINK NOT. Nice try though.

Also, to those who are JEALOUS Hillary can't say she voted against the war she had all the facts laid out in front of her and still made the wrong choice and has yet to be WOMAN enough to admit she got it wrong like Kerry and Edwards did. Barack is just as qualified as Hillary to run this country.

YES WE CAN!!!

If Hillary wins….I vote for Nadar or stay home. If she or McCain wins the general….I will explore moving to Europe.

I have such mixed feelings about both candidates… I wish we could go back in time to a point when the real issues were what the focus was in campaigning and not so much mud slinging. I want to know what each candidate can do for me, not what the other candidate cannot do for me.

I am a registered republican, but am dreading the chance of another 4 yrs of business as usual by the republicans.

As an Obama supporter, I'm glad to see Hillary can relax with a beer on her campaign flight. Nothing wrong with that.

People are still donating large amounts to Hillary to stay in the race until the convention. Howard and Donna Brazille should be thrown out of the DNC for throwing away Florida and Michigan's delagate. We would not be in this mess. Hillary would have a large lead of delagate otherwise.

Hey, where is more information on the Obama campaign staff meeting with the Canadian officials to explain that what he said about NAFTA at the debate was more for political purposes than policy plans????
Is this the transparency he is talking about?

I hope Hillary does stay in now. I hope her presence destroys the democratic party. I'm an Independent and I find the treatment of Barack Obama by (his) party? and the media to be contemptable. Talk about stacking the deck. The republicans are even worse. The United States has no room to talk about any body in regards to fair elections. CNN I really thought you guys were different. Shows how much I know huh. What a joke.

My fellow Ohioans: Please don't repeat your mistake in the last Presidential election, you know, 4 more years of Bush. I don't want to have to try to explain why you voted for a Clinton. Vote Smart ,Vote for Obama.
Craig

So she's ready to fight it out at the Convention.

Funny how when folks like myself who saw this character trait 16 years ago, we were dismissed as 'afraid of a powerful woman.' Nope.

I'm afraid of a devious woman, which she most certainly is. If she fails to win both Ohio and Texas, she should withdraw. But that isn't going to happen, either. The Clintons would rather a Republican win than Obama – after all, then they can run again in four years.

Bhgghhgghh

TEXAS, OHIO, VERMONT, RHODE ISLAND: Dont let us down.

Vote For America!!

Go Big Baby, Or Go Home!!!!!!

Obama 08

ENOUGH ABOUT THE BEER ALREADY!!!!! Can we focus on the important things going on tomorrow. There IS still a CHOICE to be made in this election and let the people of Ohio, Texas, Rhode Island, and Vermont have their chance to make it.
SENATOR Clinton said exactly what she should have said…..she will see what the VOTERS have to say about the Democratic party candidate on Tuesday.
Use the blog to say something meaningful.

we know they gonna try and dig up dirt on obama.sadly for hillary ,the press does not chose the president,the people do.and the people has spoken.

The democratic party has to make some decisions before forcing Hillary out. They need to decide on Michigan and Florida, they cannot effort to defranchise those voter. If they do those voter made just as well change party affiliation. Democratic party already has divided the party into black vs white, male vs female., and young vs old. I doubt ,no matter how hard the democratic party tries to get Obama in as president , it not going to happen, because of the division.

I am not a fan of the CLINTON MACHINE but … I'll give credit where it's due … Hillary is a fighter. She is smart. She is a force. I voted for Bill Clinton in both elections. But, during this campaign I've seen some "shady antics" coming out of their camp. It's too bad Hillary couldn't save herself from "the machine". People want a change, and different politics. The same old Washington train needs to come to a halt.

Obama 08!

The biggest "CONTRAST" between Clinton and Obama is Obama's ability to unite the people.
No matter what policies you tout while campaigning inf you don't have the people behind you success is going to be limited.

We all try to define what "it" is that makes Obama so popular. It is that one single thing, he is giving a long divided country a reason to come together.

Hillary has way to much history and baggage to ever be able to accomplish that.

Go Clinton AND Obama!

Thanks to the BUSH/CHENEY/ROVE administration, our men and women in the military are sacrificing their lives for ANOTHER country's consititution and babysitting ANOTHER country's dysfunctional government that now buddying up to Iran.

End the Republican's deception.

The Dem Party will be split in Gen election….Obama says he can carry the Hillary supporters which is untrue as he will not get my vote, nor will Nader but McCain will..at least he has experience and not an empty suite

Hillary 08-16

Sharon,

Barack's aid met with an official at the Canadian consulate when asked and said "there is a trend of discontent with NAFTA in the midwest".

He did what he said he would do and started a frank dialogue about how America feels. What's wrong with that? Oh wait… Hillary opposes speaking with other countries… I forgot.

By the way – Bill Clinton was in TORONTO on Saturday at a $25,000 a table fundraising dinner. Why do you think that is?

Hillary has to win big by 20 points. It's impossible! HIllary isn't letting the voters speak. She has lost eleven in a row. If it was any other candidate, they would have conceded. But beause she is Hillary Clinton, she can go all the way to the convention. Stop the madness TX and OH! I haven't even voted but I hope it ends on Wednesday for the good of the party.

The longer she stays in the rac, the more harm she will cause the party. She can't win this thing by delegates anyway. She should bow out gracefully.

i have to say that a lot of these obama people are by far the most gullible, naive people i have ever heard an opinion from.

scary.

Where is her tax returns??? What is she hiding? Where are they getting their money???

TO ALL DEMOCRATS:
Although i'm an Obama supporter, i still respect Hillary Clinton and her views. If my candidate doesn't win the nomination, i will still support Hillary. Democrats need to come together before the general election to defeat John McCain. I rather have a democrat in the WH than another four years of an older version of Bush. UNITED WE STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL!!!

DEMOCRATS UNITE!!

"You can't handle the truth!"

Thanks to the BUSH/CHENEY/ROVE administration, our men and women in the military are sacrificing their lives for ANOTHER country's consititution and babysitting ANOTHER country's dysfunctional government that now buddying up to Iran.

End the Republican's deception.

She has definitely gone negative. Same campaign style as Bush & McCain. Hillary=Bush=McCain…same old politics as usual.

What's this I hear that obama told the canadians that he has no intentions of doing anything about NAFTA, it was just all talk for us U.S voters. Thanks barack, for clarifying it for us U.S. voters. What else is for us voters here in the U.S. in your speeches? Hillary, hang in there, It gives us U.S. voters HOPE for you after all is said and done.

I came to this late but it is not too late using the power of email. Urge as many people as possible to Google:
Floor Speech of Senator Hillary Rodham Clintonon S.J. Res. 45, A Resolution to Authorize the Use of United States Armed Forces Against Iraq

Then you can make up your own mind on the issue of judgement. No amount of political posturing can change the facts

To Louise
The last thing we need is to listen to high military officers.
Many of these men take high paying jobs in corperations that specialise
in manufacturing weapons, after they retire from active service.
George Washington warned us not to let the military ever take over the
government!!
George Bush doesn't seem to understand this! He actually said he didn't
care what congress said, he would rely on what his generals said.

I find it incredibly arrogant of Bill Richardson (who looks great in the beard, B-T-W) to say that the one leading in delegates after tomorrow should be "deemed" the nominee. I THOUGHT the nominee needed 2, 025 pledged delegates? I don't see how that is possible for EITHER of them tomorrow. They should continue until ONE OF THEM receives the total pledged delegates required…that IS politics.

BELIEVE ME..YOU GUYS WON'T GET ANT CHANGES WHEN OBAMA IN WHITE HOUSE BECAUSE HE IS A CANDIDATE OF CHANGE. LOOK AT WHAT HE SAID AND DONE IN THE PAST…OPEN YOUR EYES AND WAKE UP BEFORE TOO LATE

ref: Louise
Its disturbing to think that endorsements of high ranking military officers would influence your vote for commander and chief. If this were the case, Rockefellers endorsement for Obama would have already clinched the vote for him. I have the highest regard for all the people in our military, however the military is a business like any other and its customers are our enemy's. The commander and Chief must have the courage, no matter how politically wrong it may be to make the RIGHT decisions to protect this country. This requires a person who can be honest with the American people and has the track record to prove it. If Hillary CLinton says she was mislead to voting for the war in Iraq, than she is easily mislead or she is not being honest. I would also like to see her income tax returns that she says she has not had time to get together. Is she being honest about that? What about the special interest groups that help fund her campaign? What about her shift in NAFTA? There are so many questions to be answered and so little time.

Hillary, I toast you as 1st woman to win a presidential primary.

In honor of this, we have a fat man instead of a fat woman singing.

It just wasn't meant to be.

Obama / Sebelius 08

After March 4th she will put down the beer and pick up a bottle.

She is a loser.

she is too devisive. We need unity, not more fingerpointing.

Obama 08

I'm an Obama supporter, but I must say that it was pretty cool to hear that she drinks beer on the plane.

I'm sorry, but that's just cool.

Is she lobbying for the beer industry now? What a piece of work.

Don't be fooled America. The Clintons don't have a high regard for the truth. Keep your eyes are wide open, because we can do better, much better.

Say no to Bill roaming the WH, Hillary spinning lies to the American people, and the two of them, along with the Bushes, staying in power for 34 years.

Barack- 11 in a row, 4 to go! Vote Tueday for Obama.

Why is CNN not covering the Obama campaign's dirty tactics on NAFTA? While publicly strongy attacking the trade agreement , it now emerges from a Canadian Government memo that Obama's chief economic advisor was telling the Canadians not to pay attention to Obama's public statements. It seems they were only intended for the voters' consumption in Ohio. Not only that, the Obama campaign even denied that the meeting with the Canadians had taken place. I call that lying. Why isn't CNN running with this blatant fraud on the voters of Ohio?

CNN PLEASE POST THIS AND ALL WHO READ IT PLEASE TAKE MY ADVISE-THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!

I encourage everyone to use your search engine of choice and look up 'Clinton IPA campaign contributions'. Please read this story, especially if you are a woman who supports Senator Clinton.

Beware the eyes of march 4th !!!! or has the eyse of march past ? We shall find out on tuesday who is HillaCeasar and who is Obrutus !!

"Says the Wise One "

They are only 100 delegates (or so) apart and with the democrats splitting delegates based on popular vote it is nuts to think she is even close to out of it! It will go to the convention! Let her campaign and stop asking when she will leave…I am sure she will let you know if that decision is made.
Secondly where is the story about Obama meeting with Canadians and basically saying that what he is saying now if for political reasons and the long term policy may have nothing to do with what he says now! Really! I thought he was about being honest and talking to the people. I thought he was about changing the way things are done. It seems like he just wants to changes peoples votes long enough to get him into office and then he will be his own man! NAFTA is important and though a Clinton started it it is well documented that Hillary had concerns about its impact. OHIO TEXAS makes the right decision. No obama

OH and TX, please end this! It is hurting the party. Hillary isn't going to win big tomarrow. She can't win. Vote Obama!

Did anyone see Hannity on Fox ,he intervieved several people on the street and not one of them could tell him what accomplishments that obama had made as a senator,or as a person for that fact.He promises young people $4,000.00 college reimbursment ,but those kids better stop and think if you are paying your own way to college and you are working for free who is going to pay the other $45,000.00 plus. If you are working for free to get the $4,000.00 who's going to feed you and pay for your housing. You young people better do your math if you think this is such a great deal.

I don't understand why the media protect Obama so well. WHY CNN DON'T RELEASE A NEWS ABOUT OBAMA STAND AGAINST NAFTA IS ONLY A POLITICAL RHETORIC. THIS IS WHAT HIS SENIOR STAFF TOLD CANADIAN MINISTER. IT IS A SHAME SOME ONE YELL CHANGE AND ACCUSED HILLARY ABOUT NAFTA BUT HE HIMSELF IS PRO NAFTA…SHAME ON YOU OBAMA

I WISH CNN STOP GIVING A PILLOW TO OBAMA

It is time she steps down graciously, however, she will fight her entitlement all the way not just to the convention buy beyond. Remember the so called "35 years, " she has been working on this….she will not just give that up……….
what is she talking about when she says:
She said only, "I've had a wonderful time campaigning and feel really good about where we are and I am looking forward to the results on March 4."

I call this Hillarious and so out of touch with reality. The vast majority all over the country have voted against her, and it is not just that they dont like her, it is that people are tired of the same old, same old, status quo, the Bush/Clinton era.
CNN: could you please report on news that matter such as:

\what happened with the count in NY?
Where are her tax returns?
Where are the documents to be released on her while she was in the White House?
Why is CNN and NY covering this?

The Nafta story just got quite a bit worse for the Obama campaign, as AP got hold of a Canadian government memo — essentially, notes on the meeting between the Consul and Goolsbee, Obama's economic advisor:

Noting anxiety among many U.S. domestic audiences about the U.S. economic outlook, Goolsbee candidly acknowledged the protectionist sentiment that has emerged, particularly in the Midwest, during the primary campaign. He cautioned that this messaging should not be taken out of context and should be viewed as more about political positioning than a clear articulation of policy plans

Thanks mad in Texas, does anyone remember Oprah saying American kids are spoiled so she put her money into a school in Africa? I don't mind helping out the rest of the world, but we have some unspoiled kids right here that need help too. Talk about stereotyping people!

What good is change without experience?

The more important state to win on Tuesday is Ohio because that's a swing state in the general election. Texas will go deep red.

well! she's finally seeing what everyone had saw.weeks and weeks ago.it's finally soaking in.can't wait!.tommorro history is gonna be made,for all of america.might even take a day off."wow"

Hillary hasn't been able to illuminate differences between herself and Senator Obama. The fact of the matter is that she counts every year since she's graduated from law school as "experience." She's 60 years old. Of course she has 35 years of experience. What she doesn't point out is that she's only had 8 years of experience in which she is actually accountable to voters. Nice try Hillary.

Obama people what has he CHANGED,,,,Show me legislation where he worked in a Bi-Partisian manner…One bill……… he is not for Change ,it is the same stuff McCain and Hillary represents….Obama is all talk and no substance……They are all the Same

Unless Hillary gets 65%+ victories tomorrow, there's no way she can be ahead of Obama Wednesday morning in delegates.

Thus, was Richardson giving Obama a tacit endorsement by saying the person with the most delegates after tuesday should be nominee?

Even if Clinton drops out, Obama should still campaign in the states with upcoming primaries and then go back to the ones he hasn't visited much if any.

One has to wonder, after Tuesday, WHICH Hillary would go on and which would withdraw…

The fusion of the pro-Obama biased media and the cult money machine of cult leader Obama makes the Democratic nomination process similar to a stuffed ballot box in a banana republic.

American democracy calls for the Democratic nomination process to continue for all the remaining states to have their say and then add the numbers at the Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado.

At the Convention, the superdelegates should decide on the most qualified, experienced candidate for the presidency and that would be Hillary Clinton. That's American democracy.

With the fusion of the pro-Obama biased media and the cult money machine, rational Democrats must support Hillary with frequent contributions for her to make a powerful stand against that fusion and fight the lies about her.

Hillary Clinton is fighting for the future of America; she is the qualified, experienced, visionary leader America needs to make change real and restore America to prosperous times, and she is the credible commander in chief to restore our good standing in the world.

Not many posts here yet, but the Hillary bashing continues. My mother always tought me "if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all." If you have taken the time to do the research, you would find that Sen. Clinton IS HIGHLY QUALIFIED to be our next President. She speaks out on issues important to the public and has the GUTS to make a decision and vote yes or no, not present or absent. To have the backing from so many of our fine military officers and veterans speaks volumes regarding her ability. She is the ONE and ONLY candidate that can heal the wounds and fractured relationships with other countries and here at home. While it is good to meet with hostile countries, it is a bad idea to jump in head first. It requires more thought and preparation than other candidates have proposed.

I believe Sen. Clinton should stay in the race until ALL AMERICANS HAVE VOTED! To say she should quit after Tues. would not give millions who haven't voted yet the opportunity to choose who THEY want to see in the White House. If not, they will feel as though a candidate has been rammed down their throat. I live in Michigan, and I can tell you, we are PISSED OFF that our vote doesn't count! If Florida and Michigan votes were to count, we'd be looking at an entirely different race right now.

Give it up Hillary…America wants an honest president, which you are not. Who cares that you answer the phone at 3:00am, if you're not going to tell the truth when you answer it.

Turn the page America, we've had lies, torture, distortions. We need a change–vote for Obama.

O/08

Now is Hillary who is racing with time. It is really unfair for her to give up now. She should stay, even if she does not win all of the March 4th contests.

one more thing
on the web
hillary is being investagated for campaigh fraud for year 2000
run for sen.

Love to see Ted Danson in the background with his dopey wife. I love to watch him on Cheers or Curb Your Enthusiasm but I dont need to hear him talk about how little he knows about politics. Hillary you dont need actors right now helping you , you need the Pope or an act of God cause you are FINISHED……..

Sorry Kimberly in Texas! I too live in Texas and will do my very best to ensure Obama loses BIG!!!! You probably live in some crappy town that doesn't know any better. Try living in the big bad city and you'll see that we support Hillary.

Obama says that he can win Hillary votes, but can he. Obama and McCain are to close to call in both New Jersey and New Mexico, both states Hillary won. When was the last time New Jersey voted Republican? 1988? Something to think about before heading to the polls tomorrow. Can you afford to lost blue states?

Sen. clinton should stay in the race if she's confident that she can win in the end. No one should annoint obama the winner because all the votes have not been counted yet. when the numbers show that it's impossible for Sen. clinton to win, then she will bow out gracefully. The media darling(obama) does not have it yet in the bag, and because hillary is a woman and he's a man, doesn't mean she should step aside so he can have it, excuse me.

Give up already!

The press needs to back off on pushing Hillary to quit.

I am an Obama supporter, but i feel the people must decide who goes and when. If the people starting from Iowa to now Texas and Iowa coalese around one candidate then the other will get the message. While it appears that one candidate is Obama untill the votes and delegates are all counted no one should be told to quit.

This will be a very tough and personnal decision for anyone, be it Obama or Clinton if they decide to pack it in.

Obama '08
Change we can Believe in
We are the ones we have been waiting for

What a joke this campaign has turned out to be. After 11 straight bruising defeats the Clinton camp has the nerve to suggest that they can steal the momentum. Please….It's not Obama's campaign but the Clinton campaign that puddling bull.

Billary will do anything to win.. She will tear the party apart to win. That is not who we want leading America. Her personal goals are much more important than the DNC's goals.

She is the same ol washington politician doing the same ol thing for the same ol rich folks. Time to get someone who cares about the average america. Who is one of us. Not a millionaire like the rest – Not as rich!

Time to get someone who is smart, intellectual and has great judgement,

OBAMA!

The problem with Hillary (and more so John McCain) is that her "experience" makes her too much of a Washington insider in an election year where millions of Americans are fed up with Washington politics as it's been practiced over the past 8-10 years.

Both Hillary and McCain have proven themselves to be part of the problem of Big Government, fiscal irresponsibility, military adventurism and legislative gridlock.

And to me, THAT'S why the "change movement", with Senator Obama out in front, has resonated with so many voters and contributors.

In an election year where "old" Washington politics is pitted against something different, when the "old" Washington politics has yielded undesirable results for millions of Americans and the country in general, the alternative will of course be more attractive to millions (perhaps the majority) of Americans.

In my opinion, that's in large part the reason why personal attacks on the man in front of the "change" movement (or his wife) are ineffective against the movement itself.

Lifelongdemocrat,

I don't know which Obama supporters are claiming that your vote is irrelevant, but I'm not one of them. Your vote counts precisely the same as mine and everyone else's – except the superdelegates of course. Their vote, and therefore themselves as individuals, are worth a lot more than you and I.

As long as the process is upheld fairly, I'll support the winner of the nomination. If the superdelegates are wielded to try and move the nomination in the opposite direction of that which the people have already chosen for it to go, then I will absolutely and unconditionally support Ralph Nader for president.

I would be happy to let Michigan revote and actually let our votes count. Many Obama supporters voted none of the above or for a Republican canidate or didn't vote at all because they were told the Democratic vote would not count. To try to claim that Clinton won Michigan is about the biggest claim of BS I've heard all campaign long. Obama would do very well in Michigan and Clinton knows it.

Whats in the Cup BUSH LITE!!!!!!!

pd4hillary re NAFTA – i can't believe that for someone who proclaims who's been following the debates, could get your info wrong. obama has been badgering hillary about NAFTA since day one! it's just that in wisconsin and ohio, NAFTA is more of a sensitive issue because of the hundreds of thousands of jobs lost because of it. admit it. NAFTA caused jobs not just in these two states but all over the country. where do you think the telemarketers call from? where do you think most products in our markets today are made from? better yet, where do you think the airforce is sending its biggest contract ever to? sure, an affiliate of northrop is building a plant here in the states that would open jobs for about 2,000 americans. how about the tens of thousands of workers who will be laid off because of this move?

get your facts straight before you put your foot in your mouth.

At three in the morning, Mr McGoo McCain is so old, he won't hear the phone ring, Hillary Menopausal Clinton is so busy talking to her girlfriend on the white phone,while the red phone is ringing off the hook. So we need someone who is young and energic, not a senile old man or menopausal mood swinging women.

She doesn't have a beer, but more Kool-Ade for her supporters.

O/08

OBAMA PEOPLE – THE WORD GULLIBLE ISNT IN THE DICTIONARY

She likes where she is? She likes having lost 11 straight? I get it. this is her Battle of the Bulge strategy. Lure the opposition to sleep and strike. OoooooKay??? Too bad the only real bulge is the ego between her ears.

Why is this surprising? Hillary going back on yet another promise. Please this is common play with Hillary Clinton. Remember the pledge about Michigan and Texas? Yeah, she kept that for all of ten minutes until polls closed in the uncontested primaries. Now this play.

Hillary may win Ohio, she will lose Texas and Vermont, and she will win Rhode Island. When polls close, she will have no delegate lead and she should face facts and drop out.

The only way Hillary becomes the nominee is if she steals the election with super delegates and the Michigan/Florida debacle. If this occurs, her political career, her husbands legacy, and Chelsea's potential political future will be over. She will be remembered as someone along the lines of Aaron Burr or Benedict Arnold, and McCain will win a bigger landslide than that of Reagon Mondale.

As for the congress in such a situation, well lets just say you steal the people's candidate from them and give put Hillary in Obama's place and well I would not expect the Dems to hold congress for about forty years.

Hillary? It's 3am. Do you know where your husband is …..

Obama '08!

Clinton's campaign has been able to spin off 11 straight wins and believes this Tuesday's primary will be in her favor. I can say here is Texas she is going to have a big shock when the votes come in and she won't be able to spin it either. Time to turn the page on the old political games and Hillary answer the phone already it's time to make your concede speach!

Super delegates have been steadily moving toward Obama. Several have made statements that indicate they realize the party can not wait another 2 months after Tuesday. The attacks have become increasingly sharp and the Republicans are enjoying this too much.
Having McCain and Hillary both attacking Obama, makes the Democratic party look weak. If this goes another 2 months until Pennsylvania, there is a good chance the democrats will lose the house and senate. The party leaders realize this.
Unless Hillary is able to gain 50 delegates on Obama tomorrow, look for Richardson and several others to endorse Obama. They will also encourage Obama to consider Clinton as VP.

Richardson and several others democratic leaders have indicated there is no way the party will allow Florida and Michigan's votes to decide this election. Clinton and Obama both agreed to the rules beforehand. Florida and Michigan knew the rules when they decided to change their date. Changing the rules that everyone agreed to, is would be a sure sign the party would be a bad choice to uphold the Constitution. Imagine the ads the Republicans would run if either candidate fails to abide by the rules they agreed to.

you know, if Obama had been photographed and interviewed with a beer in a red plastic cup, it'd be OMG he's SO COOL! so down to earth! he really GETS me can we chug it yes we can!

but Hillary does has a drink and it's pandering, it's attending frat parties, it's a strategic move. Heaven forbid the woman have a beer. That would be devestating.

get over yourselves, people.

The beer is a prop. She wants to pretend she's the president you can have a beer with–NOT.

O/08

beer (not a celebration)
to see a (lady) drink, especially with the press is so degrading.
oh! she is getting a head start on being defeated, want hurt as bad after a few beers
hillary, be a lady, don't drink and campaign, turned my vote to obama

To the superdelegates,

If you wield the power that you have as individuals who's vote is 10,000 times more valuable than one of the "regular people" votes, and do so in such a way so as to thwart the intent of the popular vote, then you risk not only alienating 1/2 of the party, you also lose a whole collection of new voters that the party never had access to before. Pouring cold water on the Obama phenomenon, in an effort to bottle it up and hopefully use it again in 4 or 8 years is silly. The excitement that he's generated HAS to be utilized by the democratic party. It would be political suicide not to.

I'm not saying that they should go against the will of the people. Thats un-democratic. BUt i do think that whoever wins the majority of the elected (pledged) delegates should be the nominee, since neither is going to reach the automatic threshold.

No way Hillary. You need to stay the course. Don't give Obama a cake walk into the nomination. This man has no substance. All he can do is talk and he still has not answered what he did with the contributions and the $300,000 real estate savings he got from gangster REZKO. THis man is, "A CATFISH, ALL MOUTH AND NO BODY." Hillary do not listen to the KENNEDY FOLLOWERERS. He and his kin are nothing but murderers and gangsters. The Politicians who are asking you to quit. FELLOW SUPPORTERS BAN OPRAH. YOU SHE HOW SHE HAS PLAYED US FOR FOOLS PRETEDING TOO BACK HILLARY. TAKING OUR MONEY to build her millions as soon as she had a brother to back even though she knows he can not do what he promises. I for one will vote for McCAIN before I'll vote for this man. HILLARY 08

Win or lose, Hillary is still in the hunt until the national convention picks its winner. The proportional allocation of delegates will ensure that she will not be down and out regardless of who wins the upcoming contests. At this point, Barack's lead is just too small to be declaring victory. Is he being manipulative or basing everything on hope?

Good Morning,

louise,

I just wanted to address you in this email because thing many be done here in the US than it is in Mexico but the General's votes don't count more than the American people. Our former Persident Clinton use his power and influence to gather a nice crowd of people that don't mean we want him back in office either.

We need a new direction a new leader I and well as other believe Obama is just that leader. We can make America great again.

Hillary looks sorta tired her make of girl need to stick close to her on the trail her beg are reall showing. Chelsea is doing agreat job.

I am first and foremost a Democrat. I voted for Barack Obama and believe he is the right candidate. I will not vilify Senator Clinton and would support her if she got the nomination. If she does not make huge gains on March 4 it is my firm belief that she will step down and get behind Senator Obama. They are both good Democrats but all democrats must unite soon and start looking toward the general election.

louise,
We have seen the results of having a president who had no experience in foreign policy and national security. Remember? Bill Clinton!

Way to go Hillary!. Hang in there and no matter what happens on Tues. March 4, don't give up. We're with you all the way. As for all the republicans voting for Obama, don't you worry about them, just keep on keeping on.

hOW IS FORCING hILLARY OUT GOING TO SPLIT THE PARTY. yOU SHOULD SAY TRYING TO GET FLA. AND MICHEGAN VOTES COUNTED WOULD LIKELY SPLIT THE PARTY, BUT NOT FORCING HER OUT. IT'S NOT LIKE SHE HAS TEH DELEGATE COUNT. IF IT HAD NOT BEEN FOR THE SUPERDELEGATE COUNT SHE WOULD BE MUCH FURTHER BEHIND OBAMA.

now clintons are determined to send Mccain to white house. This is not an honesty at all. how can she fill delegate gap tomorrow in such a close race. Obama is already almosst 150 delegates ahead. this shows how power hungry she is.

Why isn't CNN covering Obama's top aid telling Canada that his tough talk on NAFTA is just campaign rhetoric? That they shouldn't worry because what he's saying now is just POLITICAL?????

Can anyone PLEASE LOOK UNDER THE RUG ABOUT THIS GUY!!!!!!!
WE ARE IN TROUBLE AND NEED SOMEONE WHO CAN FIX THE PROBLEMS!!!!!! NOT LIE ABOUT WHAT HE"LL DO!

HILLARY CLINTON CAN FIX THE PROBLEMS!

If Hillary wins I will vote for McCain.

She can not pull independent or disenfranchised Republican votes. A vote for Hillary is a vote for McCain.

However it wont even be close. If she does win a close 52-48 in Texas and Ohio. She would still need 70% of the remaining states.

It will not happen.

Indpendent for OBAMA

If she doesn't do well tomorrow, what new attacks can she try? She's tried ridicule, distortion, innuendo, and fear.

Maybe if she hired some guys to break into the Obama campaign headquarters and tap his phones…

Hillary should stay in the race and no one has the right to suggest she leaves. Furthermore, isn't it strange that B.O. talks about lobbyists on other people's campaigns and not about those on his? Who are the people running this campaign. I'd rather vote for someone who who has actually done something rather than this rock star who "pretends" to have done something. He certainly isn't bi-partisan and people and the press should actually scrutinize his record both in the state Legislature in Illinois and most importantly in the US Senate. For those of us who have, Obama truly is a fraud. His speeches will get the votes of the American people, but not in Congress

Looking forward to March 4th and the end of the Bill & Hillary Clinton in the media!

I hope Obama wins BIG!! Sweep!!

i encourage everyone to read ben smith's blog at politico.com this am regarding an interview hillary gave to steve kroft of 60 mins. where she creates doubt about obama's faith. what a sleaze bag she is .win at all cost . she has proven one thing she will get down and dirty and fight like dogs. she's divisive and we are in trouble if she takes this nomination. get ready to say goodbye to democratic party. this party will never survive .

Ohio make sure you look at this NAFTA issue with Obama. Remember, he says everything to everyone and nothing to no one. If NAFTA was such a big issue for him, why was Wisconsin, leading into Ohio, the first time he brought it up. Much of his economic policies are "ditto's" of Clinton. So are his answers. We all have eyes and ears and saw what took place in these debates!

Let the fat lady sing already.

If she stays, it just means she has more dirty tricks to play.

America needs an honest president for a change.

O/08

Yep we'll see,
Obama '08

STAND STRONG FOR CHANGE (OBAMA)

OR

FALL HARD FOR THE SAME (Clinton's and McCain)!!!!

We'll all have a beer tomorrow night and cheers to Hillary when she pulls out these wins!!

By the way, I already greatly admired her, but she has just gone up even more in my book!!

Do you want a president answering the phone at 3am with a beer in their hand?

I'm a little tired of the Obama supporters referring to the Clinton supporters as irrelevant people. Our vote counts the same as yours and we have the better candidate. Grow up and use some adult language. I'm sure that you will never answer the red phone as you wouldn't know what to say!

I was part of the "youth" movement that led George McGovern to a one state win in '72 and Lyndon Johnson to a landslide (60)%) over Goldwater. Unfortunately Johnson couldn't even garner enough primary votes to run a second time. Obama may seem invinvable but he isn't.

For once I agree with her. She has sharpened the contrast. Now she looks worse than she ever did before. Must be campaign strategy #23 since coming in third in Iowa….do whatever is necessary to make myself look like a worse choice than Obama.

She should stay in the race. Her policies and those of Obama are IDENTICAL. Big government, more taxes, welfare state, etc. If she stays in, the dems have a choice between a socialist woman and a socialist african-american.

I have not watched any political news the past four days and I have read very little about the election.

I found myself getting too upset or depressed. I admire people who can turn off the TV entirely!

Hasn't it become borderline insanity? A two-year long campaign season with more to come!

Does anyone work?

Of course she refuses to look beyond March 4, just as she refused to look beyond Super Tuesday. And she wonders why she's trailing? Let her continue to nurse that beer, she'll need a keg on Tuesday night.

I REALLY WANT SOMEONETO GET OUT THERE FOR CLINTON AND SAY……….OBAMA
WAS NOT ON THE NATIONAL SCENE WHEN THE WAR STARTED AND WHO KNOWS HOW HE WOULD HAVE VOTED FOR THE WAR………I AM SICK OF HIM SAYING HE DID NOT VOTE FOR THE WAR…HE COULDN'T EVEN VOTE FOR THE WAR AT THAT TIME……..ALSO SOME ONE TELL THE WORLD JAY ROCKERFELLA DID VOTE FOR THE WR ….OBAMA KEEPS SAYING HE DID NOT VOTE FOR THE WAR…………………CHECK THE VOTES………………

To the Superdelegates:

No matter what happens tomorrow, you need to let this play out and you need to figure out what to do with Florida and Michigan. If you try to force Hillary out, you will split the Democratic Party. Ultimately, half of the Party (or more actually, if you look at Democratic voters alone) are voting for her. Her supporters do believe she is the true Democratic candidate.

There are still several states that have not had their say in this process.
Remember, Bill Clinton didn't wrap up the nomination until June.

Stay with it Hillary!

Sounds like she is getting ready to concede after she loses Texas to Obama… we'll see on Wednesday.

Enough of the hype! Let the voters speak. Asking Clinton if she's dropping out at this stage is ridiculous and demeaning. Press b.s. at best and I'm backing Obama. Fair's fair!

"The New York senator, nursing a beer from of a red plastic cup…"

She's giving campaign speeches at frat parties now? They must be in more money trouble than I thought.

Cheers!

Looks like Hillary is almost done. Today and tomorrow should be very interesting.

30 general and flag officers who have endorsed Hillary Clinton to be the Nation’s next President and Commander-in-Chief. Senator Clinton has received five more endorsements in recent days, including those of General Henry Hugh Shelton, the former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral William Owens, the former vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs, and Army Major General Antonio M. Taguba. Overall she has the endorsement of two former chairmen of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, five admirals and generals at the four-star rank. They are in addition to over 2,000 veterans and military retirees who are members of Senator Clinton’s national and state veterans’ steering committees.We've seen the tragic result of having a president who had neither the experience nor the wisdom to manage our foreign policy and safeguard our national security, Sen. Joseph Biden of Delaware chairs the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, among party's most respected voices on foreign policy after 35 years in the Senate and stated that as a senator, Clinton joined the Armed Services Committee in 2003, a post that burnished her national-security credentials. She is conscientious, she took hold and showed a good understanding" of security issues. Hillary Clinton has done her homework on national security,

Wow.. "nursing a beer". Well thats pandering at its yummiest!
