Obama is looking to regain momentum after tough losses earlier this week.

(CNN) – Sens. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton were in Wyoming Friday, wrangling last-minute votes before Saturday's caucuses.

Clinton, speaking at a town rally at Laramie County Community College in Cheyenne, criticized Obama's campaign speeches — and said the country doesn't have any time to waste.

"What you heard from me in this campaign is very specific. I know that there's a difference between speeches and solutions, and I want you to know what I will do if given the great honor of serving you as your president, because I want you to hold me accountable," she said. "I don't want there to be any mistakes here. I don't want there to be any false impressions. I don't think we have any time to waste."

Obama, speaking at a town hall meeting in Casper, criticized Clinton's 2002 vote on Iraq. Video Watch him speak at the Casper rally »

"I will bring this war to an end in 2009, so don't be confused … when Sen. Clinton is not willing to acknowledge that she voted for war," he said. "I don't want to play politics on this issue, because she doesn't have standing to question my position on this issue."

Wyoming is not typically a stop for Democrats looking for delegates in order to clinch the nomination, but because of the delegate deadlock this year, the numbers could make a difference.

I am so saddened by the Clintons’ negative campaign tactics. The goal is to distract voters away from the message of change and unity. However, within the lines of Mrs. Clinton’s own speech she is professing the same message. Shame on you Clintons! I would not vote for the Clintons ever again.

After an effective cry from Mrs. Clinton, the media spins are now aggressively supporting her portrayal of Senator Obama as weak and, as early as this morning, a fading memory. I really hate the games of politics–the games that can spin the characterization a good and honorable man to one of a thief and a liar. I hate the political games that can ignore the facts of perjury and money mismanagement scandals in ones own camp while painting a self-portrait of honesty and trustworthiness. I hate the politics that will define a man’s character and worth by his name or his color only. I hate the political games that pit one race, one gender, and one generation of people against another, and in the end, say, it was all politics, let’s kiss and make up for our party’s sake. I hate the political game players who actually think that party unity is a reality once the hatred has been imbedded.

I hate the political game players that think the citizenry of the nation is too ignorant to decipher and understand their rhetoric. I hate the political analysts who imbed their personal preferences and those of their candidates in their messages to the people. I hate that these same analysts will drive in their nice cars to their home to their nice neighborhoods, where there is plenty of food, where they will examine their stock reports, and hang their freshly laundered shirts next to their $1000 suits and dare to think that what they have done is honorable and just, because only politics.

Obama's campaign is based in a speech made when he had no responsibilty. That is the end of his qualifications, it is incredible to discover an empty record with many "present" votes and dubious personal financial dealings with at least Rezko. What is the excuse this time?

iamcanadian   March 8th, 2008 10:07 am ET

The DNC wants FL and MI to Play by the RULES.

This is a far cry from UNIVERSAL ADULT SUFFRAGE.
One Man One Vote.
A Government of the People, by the people and For the People.

Fundamental Democratic principles are being violated.

If you want to play by the rules you should not call the Russian elections unfair.
Medvedev won by the Rules of the Russian Government.
Never mind the PEOPLE.

The US should stop claiming to be the masters of Democracy.
Florida will show the RULERS twice in a decade that US elections do not respect the wish of the people.
Rather it is decided by the courts, those with big money, and lobyists.

I call the Russian elections unfair because I believe in Democracy.
I no longer believe in US Democracy.

People of Wyoming,

Please don't let the politics of fear and negativity influence your vote. Don't let the Clinton war room and its marketing lies stop you from following your heart.

You have a chance to stand for change today.

Join us and we can make the world a better place.

Obama 2008

Davis   March 8th, 2008 10:08 am ET

Given the repeated use of the politics of fear over the past eight years, I hope that the voters in Wyoming and Mississippi have not fallen victims to the Bush (and now Clinton) tactics. It's time for a change, people. Lets lock up this nomination people!

WHAT IF McCAIN WINS IN NOVEMBER?

This scenario is possible if:
1. the independent and cross-over vote going to Obama is not a SINCERE vote, But political STRATEGY to knock Hillary (the best choice) out or to prolong the process and increase division.

2. If the Clinton supporters do not back Obama should he be the nominee. This is probable since the actions of the DNC, the caucus system, and the denied/uncounted votes disenfranchised CLINTON supporters.

3. If Obama supporters do not back Clinton should she be the nominee. This is possible based more on hate and spitefulness than on the issues.

EITHER WAY, A McCAIN WIN…But this is worse for the younger Obama supporters than it will be for the older Clinton demographic.
Just think about it.

If this is a Caucus, I only hope the Security Guards, deal with Security,

and not on sending people away, just because they Vote for Hillary.

ABC=Anybody But Clinton   March 8th, 2008 10:11 am ET

You guys crack me up…TOUGH LOSSES??? HE WON TEXAS!!!! Go look at the delegate count….when you combine primary and caucus delegate counts……OBAMA WON!!!! Oh and by the way……watch him win today too……

Sarah   March 8th, 2008 10:12 am ET

All obama has is his speech at an anti-war rally in 2002 where he took no risks…..and it is so OLD & BORING and has no relevance considering he didn't have the moxi to carry it out in 2004, 2005, 2006, & 2007 when it became politically advantageous for him to finally vote against the war in a position of making REAL CHANGE.

Obama is a fraud: campaign finance flip-flop, NAFTA lies, Iraq lies, exelon, rezko, etc. etc. etc.

FPJ   March 8th, 2008 10:13 am ET

If I were a Senator and the USA president, the UK prime Minister and all the Security agencies tell me that Iraq can use nuclear and chemical weapons against us I would have voted the way Hillary did. Furthermore, it would have been irresponsible to vote otherwise.
The real villains here are the White House, the security agencies and the British prime minister. One thing is to talk and another is to be responsible for the safety and well being of our people. Hillary's vote was correct given the lies injected by the administration. Put the blame where it belongs, president Bush.

gene   March 8th, 2008 10:13 am ET

Makes one anti war speech, while in the Illinois Senate. Later says he did not know how he would have voted, elected U.S. Senator and has voting "yes" on every funding of the war. Claims to be an expert, with great judgemem, maybe he should have used that judgement, when he purchased that $1,900,000 (thats Million) house with the help of Rezko, who has been indicted fot bribery and corruption. Said that was a "bonehead mistake). I think it was poor judgement or something dishonest.

True Democrat   March 8th, 2008 10:15 am ET

C'mon Wyoming! Make the right choice for your state and the country! Vote for HOPE and CHANGE in 2008! Give Barack Obama another win! Let's keep our momentum going!!!

OBAMA '08!!!

kaimu   March 8th, 2008 10:15 am ET

What a funny story to wake up to.

Just another blunder by a "experienced" candidate. Guess she didn't do her research, quelle surprise?

Turns out the girl in her "3am Red Phone" ad was a Precinct Captain for a caucus in Washington and a hard core Obama supporter.
Yeah, go team Hillary.

We've got a handle on the young and educated, better do your research.

Barack will continue to take the high road and get out of the "silly season" of the present climate his opponent has chosen.

Go Obama. Obama will win.

Go Wyoming, Cowboy up! and Go Mississippi. Go Obama.
Good luck,
Kaimu

Nancy   March 8th, 2008 10:15 am ET

What is with the news media and how it always brings up Hillary's vote for war? It wasn't even our fault that we went to war, it was Iraq's fault.

I'm sorry, a woman can't vote for war without criticism? How sexist is that?

Kathy Jackson   March 8th, 2008 10:17 am ET

Dear Sane Americans
Hillary is at least 12 years your senior and claims to have all this experience. But her campaign is the most inconsistent mess I've seen. How many times has she "only just begun" already?? How many times does she need to find her voice??? How many do overs does she need?? I can't believe the American people could think she'd even be an adequate president much less a decent one. Just remember, even those who intend to vote for Hillary do like Barack Obama but the reverse is less so and shrinking with every dirty trick she pulls out of her bag. Barack promises transparency but Hillary has made no such promise. In light of her recently sealed college thesis, her omission of being a "Goldwater Girl", unrevealed income taxes and so on, we'd better examine Hillary in our brightest, truest light. I guarantee it'll be ugly.

Well, it will be interesting to see what Billary will be up to today in Wyoming. "Halloween Hillary" and her bag of tricks, still has not come forth with her income tax returns.

Amit   March 8th, 2008 10:18 am ET

CNN = Clinton News Network.

The caption for the Obama image is insane. "Obama is looking to regain momentum after tough losses earlier this week." Clinton won Ohio and Rhode Island. Obama won Vermont and he won the Texas Caucus which means he won Texas over Hillary's popular vote of 51% to 48%!

Stop reporting false news.

Obama '08.

ernie   March 8th, 2008 10:18 am ET

obama is for sure a big cry baby why does he want to see her taxes paper what he want to see how much money they make , he should tell the realy truth about resko and his involdment with him . he all about crying now becuase he lost ohio and texas the 2 states he had to win to become the demcrate nomoniee but senice he lost all he can say is its a wash but just incase he dont no this is and im sure he dont no this seince his own soppoters dont no this that it is impossible for him to win with out the super delagtes in the convention just as its is with hillary all it comes down to no is michiagn and fl if they going to revote or what,

Bayou Joe   March 8th, 2008 10:18 am ET

Same old song. Same old Tune. Talk or Solutions. How about Neither. Where do you two stand on Immigration? How are you going to deal with the Housing Market? What will you do with NAFTA.
Iran, Korea, Latin America. In my humble opinion, neither one of you is fit to be president.

Obama08! right on day one!

BL-NYC   March 8th, 2008 10:19 am ET

Senator Obama has been giving us "hope" based on promise that, in reality, there is no way he could keep…
With all (or any) due respect, he has never done a thing for his state. Never done a thing for our country. Never owned a business and served in a public position for a couple of years… Just not ready yet. Like him, but just not ready. We are in serious trouble as a nation and we need experience to aid us in getting out of war, out of debt and back on track…
Senator Clinton has given it to us straight from day one. Told us what she will do and how she will do it…

53y/owf   March 8th, 2008 10:19 am ET

I'm a lifelong democrat, started voting at 18 (the first yr of the 18 y/o vote). I have voted democrat in every election since then.

I am 53 y/o, white, female, college educated and financially secure. I work in healthcare so my job is secure. I continue to vote democrat, less for myself, than for the good of less fortunate americans, the young, and the good of my country.

I was initially willing to vote Clinton OR Obama. The Obama people changed my mind. This election was rigged from day one by the DNC and by the caucus system. The media stayed mum because they are pro-Obama and anti-Hillary and they were enjoying things.

Come November, if Clinton is not on the ballot I will vote my conscience and WRITE her in. I can not vote Republican on ideology and I will not vote for Obama because I can not enable a corrupt primary process by giving the vote to the candidate they installed by unfair and illegal means. I am a proud American who believes in the RIGHT to vote. These 3rd world manipulations have soured me on Obama as a viable option.

DREAM TICKET FOR CHANGE

benvictor   March 8th, 2008 10:20 am ET

Ad Nauseum, he says the word, "change", over and over again. Over and over again, AD NAUSEUM, he says the word change over and over again. Where's the beef? Where is the substance? Oh sorry, when he has no experience and no record of accomplishment, what else can he say. We all have change in our lives every day. We change our clothes every day. We change TV channels. But, he is stuck on this word, "change" and he has no idea how to end his empty rhetoric. How sad, and he wants to be president?

Hillary For President!!!!!! Ohio   March 8th, 2008 10:20 am ET

Obama is Nothing but a Talker, and he sure is'nt much else. He's days are out numbered by a Thousand miles!

Indie in Iowa   March 8th, 2008 10:22 am ET

I'm getting a little sick of obama's broken record. He wouldn't have voted for the war… because he has the MOST liberal voting record in congress. He votes down parties lines on everything. At least Hillary and McCain both have crossed party lines to show this change that Obama keeps preaching about but has yet to do himself.

HH   March 8th, 2008 10:22 am ET

A win for Obama, and HIllary will say the caucus will not count, because her voters have to work and tooooo many young kids are going to vote. This lady is a joke.

Jay   March 8th, 2008 10:22 am ET

"I don't want to play politics on this issue, because she doesn't have standing to question my position on this issue."

His arrogance and ego has no bounds….

Someone needs to tell the junior senator from Illinois, that he is not a deity and his words are not absolute. I'll be so glad when he goes crawling back to his Chicago mansion later on this year.

andrew jones   March 8th, 2008 10:22 am ET

Billary Clinton has suggested many times in the campaign trail that caucuses are undemocratic, unrepresentative and controlled by party activists.
Billary even dismissed caucuses and has even invoked her husband to defend her losing record in caucus states, saying that he “never won caucuses.”
So I wonder why Billary's presence in Wyoming, along with her two leading surrogates — Bill and her daughter, Chelsea — does this mean that caucuses are now important? or this is just Billary's alter ego or bipolar personality showing up at these rallies - always putting down states that she doesn't win!
this woman can speak from both sides of her mouth - truly a monster!

AMERICANS EVERYWHERE ARE HOLDING YOU ACCOUNTABLE - CAN THE TRUE BILLARY PLEASE STAND UP?

OBAMA IS THE UNITER - VOTE FOR CHANGE!!!

JUSTINE   March 8th, 2008 10:22 am ET

OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT
HILLARY HAS NEVER BEEN ANYTHING BUT BILLS SIDE KICK
LET GET REAL AMERICA YOU ARE GOING TO HAND THE WHITE HOUSE OVER TO THE GOP AGAIN IT WILL BE LIKE BUSH IS STILL IN THE BIG HOUSE.

jill   March 8th, 2008 10:22 am ET

We need to be asking questions on NAFTA and why did Obama go to Canada and then not give a straight answer when questioned.

How many of our first generation U.S. soldiers are given the security clearance we are about to give to Obama? Most I know are held back in their ranks for just such a reason.

gary   March 8th, 2008 10:23 am ET

Is that allObama brings up is Iraq against HRC. He's a broken record.85% of America wanted to go to war after the 911 tragedy,give me a break.Seems America will start seeing he is a empty suit and has nothing to offer us but smooth talk and alot of promises he isnt qualified to perform. When will America wake up and start really caring about their country and vote for the right leader. This is not a game were playing with our countries lives.HRC is are only answer to bring around the changes this country needs. It seems after 911 was over and done ,the American people forget.HRC and half of the country wanted war to bring justice.Give me a break. Get real America.

Edgar   March 8th, 2008 10:23 am ET

Hillary supporter! I am going to vote for Obama if Hillary does not get nomination as long as he can show that he is tough and be a strong President in items like National Security and our National Economy. No nice guy messeage toughness with kidness and solutions. Speaches are nice but we need solutions!!!!

Texas Twister   March 8th, 2008 10:23 am ET

Look, Senator Clinton said on the Texas debate…with millions of people watching about the war in Iraq vote. So let it go already! She acknowledged it, said it was a mistake - only because the information that they were given was innacurate and untrue. And if she knew then what she knows now…she would have voted differently. So why does Obama keep harping on this?? Is this all he has to go by? Man, he sounds like a broken record, and quite frankly it's getting old and really doesn't matter any more. He's desperate because he THOUGHT he had Texas in his back pocket. Why do you think he hung out in San Antonio that night…instead of moving on to another state? He was ready to give his "WINNING" speech…haha!! Wow was he shocked!
He gets the black vote - well because of his claim to be black. But he is not all black…he's half white. So I don't see him as a Black African, but as someone from a mixed background. He has the black support…but it is ONLY because he is black…not because he is qualified or ready to take command. He's not tough enough, and he is not experienced enough. He needs to go be a junior senator for a few more years, then think about possibly running for governor or something. Get some experience under his belt, then come back. Who knows..he may get it then with no problem.

Andres   March 8th, 2008 10:25 am ET

With This Barack Obama Victory…. it will make it 13 out of the last 16 contest won, for Obama. Talk about the big MO!

Lou from iowa   March 8th, 2008 10:25 am ET

This clinton come back the media is hyping is frustrating. He was behind 20 points in the polls two weeks before the event. Hows that for momentum? Everyone said she had to win both by big margins. She did well in ohio but tex was a wash. She didn't end up any further along in delegate count. How is that a big come back?

Nancy, Oklahoma   March 8th, 2008 10:26 am ET

Texas should have never been announced as a "win" for Hillary. I believe the media did this because it enables the race to continue. When all is said and done Obama will have won Texas by three delegates-that includes the results for both the primary and the caucus. The media needs to take Texas off of it's win column for Hillary. Obama will add Wyoming to his string of wins. Obama has won 24 contests compared to Hillary's 14. VOTE Obama 08.

SLO Bear   March 8th, 2008 10:26 am ET

Since there is no way to comment on the "bold" article, let me just say that the headline,timeing, and content–finding one legislator, probably a Clinton supporter–to characterize his service is ridiculous. It's like giving Clinton her own Fox News–not a noble aspiration.

Please don't moderate out, as the timing does relate to the Wyoming article.

DLH   March 8th, 2008 10:26 am ET

"I will bring this war to an end in 2009, so don't be confused " A perfect example of Obama's naivete - Al Qaeda has been at war with us since before Sept 11, and will be at war with us long after 2009. If we "end the war," it just means we will go back to playing defense, and we all saw how well that works…. wake up people!

Lucy   March 8th, 2008 10:27 am ET

I am baffled that so many minority females are supporting Obama when we have an opportunity to vote a strong, qualified, female candidate into office. How is it that women forget how strong and capable we are; over 50% of American homes are run by women in every way shape and form. We deal with budgets, difficult decision making, taking care of others' needs while still maintaining a job. Did we forget how we got in THAT place where EVERYTHING was left to us to handle; it because the man walked away. So why is it we give Obama more props when it has been Clinton who has fought for our women and our chldren to get what the men of all races and backgrounds failed to provide us with. Thank you.

Donna, Antioch TN   March 8th, 2008 10:31 am ET

All I ever see Obama doing is preaching - doesn't he ever outline his plans for the American people. When he debates, he usually says "I agree with Sen. Clinton" and the only thing I ever hear is he would have voted against the war. However, since he has been in the Senate he has voted exactly like Sen. Clinton - So what makes him the better choice - nothing - I am a Hillary supporter and believe she will help the American people with jobs, healthcare and education because she has plans for these. Not just a bunch of rhetoric.

The truth - please don   March 8th, 2008 10:31 am ET

Americans are so simple minded, that you can't see a good thing when it is right in front of your face.
Hillary supporters, you might want to look into the her campaign's contact with Canadian Prime Minister Steven Harper's chief of staff

CHERYL   March 8th, 2008 10:31 am ET

I THINK THAT RECENT DEVELOPMENTS CONCERNING NAFTA HAVE HURT OBAMA! ALSO THE NEGATIVE ATTACKS ON SENATOR CLINTON ARE JUVENILE!

THIS IS WHY THE PEOPLE OVERWHELMINGLY VOTED FOR SENATOR CLINTON ON TUESDAY!

THE LIE SEALED HIS FATE, BECAUSE PEOPLE FEEL DECEIVED!

SENATOR CLINTON HAS HAD THE SAME MESSAGE FROM THE BEGINNING.

SHE GETS MY VOTE! SHE IS THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN BEAT JOHN McCAIN!!

GO HILLARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

from Boston   March 8th, 2008 10:32 am ET

Oh no, not another she voted for the war and I didn't. Move forward and come up with concrete solutions in handling the situation. We all know that there needs to be a planned withdrawal that will be in the best interest of our country and the security of the Iraqi people. That's what Clinton has said (at least in Boston at her speech). Barack needs to stop with the same old rhetoric.

Mischelle from Illinois   March 8th, 2008 10:32 am ET

Her standing to Question you Mr. Obama is that you did not VOTE and were no where near the US SENATE in 2002. It sure is good for you that you can tell everybody how you THINK you MIGHT have voted if you had been in that position, but NO ONE CAN REALLY KNOW. SO your speach is all you have. Nothing more!

I , too, OPPOSED the war in 2000, but it really means nothing in the big picture because I was not VOTING in the US SENATE and faced with that tough decission, AND NEITHER WERE YOU!

FYI- Mr. Obama a truer test to your judgement is the fact that you have not held even ONE sub-committee hearing on Aghanistan, in the entire 14 months you have held that position. VERY BAD judgement and it does not please those of us who live in the state of IL and put you in the US SENATE. GET BACK TO WORK - YOU BUM!

Spirit of America   March 8th, 2008 10:33 am ET

On the 5th anniversary of this war based on lies, it is high time to end the war and end the lies. Get all the troops out as fast as we got them in five years ago. Impeach Bush and Cheney. Expose and defeat McSame as Bush. And arrest and prosecute those responsible for this colossal disaster. That is the exit strategy which ends the war and restores justice. Anything less is not worthy of America.

Patrick   March 8th, 2008 10:33 am ET

Wyoming will prove to America and the media that Hillary did not stop Obama's momentum on March 4th, but only held it up a little. Once he claims victory in 2 more states he'll have the momentum and 6 weeks of campaigning leading up to PA.

LadyLeo   March 8th, 2008 10:35 am ET

Clinton making the comment " I don't want there to be any false impression". Every time I see her that is all I see.

Obama is a Peace maker not a fighter.

Boubacar Barry   March 8th, 2008 10:36 am ET

Don't worry Barack you will win big tonight and Tuesday. I am very confident things will get better, but dot not leave your original message which is "HOPE and CHNAGE"…….because just remember Hill still don't have a message….
Stick to your plans

Ngechop joel,CAMEROON   March 8th, 2008 10:36 am ET

i think this election has become so nasty and i think just as obama said the world is watching and is taking note of the character of each candidate.unfortunately the republicans are in this race.i don't really think what the republicans have to offer this year really interest anyone around the world,except countries profiting from the fundings for the war in Irak.In my intire life i have never since a specker and a man of character like your next president Mr Obama.i think if he is loved around the world it is not because he is black.it is bcause of the message he send and what he stands for.
Sen.clinton says he has only one speck he made,what has she other than parasiting from past glories.
i don't think Obama whats to help America be like what it was in the clinton years.Better,i think he is doing the undone,he is taking the step other american presidents have failed to take.He is will to make step toward bring peace for the world and Irak.
It's ashame, America sent the first man to the moon but can't send a first man on earth to negociate peace with other world rulers.
i think it's time Americans ralise most of the nations on earth are here to stay and that peace in the middle east,africa,south america,europe and asia also means peace for america…

The cynics will not succeed.

The truth will prevail.

And the United Stated of America will be back again to the lead the World with Truth, Honor and Integrity.

Jack from WV   March 8th, 2008 10:37 am ET

Since the beginning of this campaign Obama has tried to take the high road, while Hillary has done what the Clinton’s have been known for, doing what’s necessary to get the votes and winning at all costs. Now with the race in a dead heat, Obama must stoop to Hillary’s level and bring to light some of those things Hillary wants to keep quiet. While I admire his high road tactics it will not win him the election so in order for him to gain his momentum back he must go on the attack and trust me there’s enough information out there on Hillary he shouldn’t have to dig very deep.
In question right now is Hillary’s tax returns, not providing them for the public scrutiny is not a crime, however it does make you wonder what it is she is trying to hide. Knowing how the Clinton’s work I am certain that they have some very well educated tax lawyers checking these documents over and deleting items which do not look favorable for Hillary. It’s not a crime in America to make money, and it takes money to make money so I am sure Hillary has earned an abundance of money, otherwise she wouldn’t be running for President.
With all the number crunchers doing the math they have all come to terms that no matter how many primaries either of these two win they will not have enough delegates to secure the nomination. Knowing this it just might come down to June and the super delegates. If this happens I believe Bill will contact the super delegates if he hasn’t done so already to ensure a vote for Hillary. If this does happen everyone will know just how the Clinton’s really are and the democrats will pay the price come November. No one thought it would be such a close race especially Hillary.
I am not for either of these two but I have been watching this race from the beginning and to tell you the truth not Hillary, Obama or McCain has what I believe it takes to get America back on track.

Tim Rivers   March 8th, 2008 10:38 am ET

Amazing! Simply amazing Hillary wants us to hold her accountable? Well then, release, without further delay, your 2000-2006 income tax records for public scrutiny. Release the list of donors to Bill Clinton's Presidential library so we can see if there may be any red flags there and, while we're on the subject of accountability, how about releasing your White House calendars for when you were First Lady so we can see exactly what your "35 years of experience" is comprised of (other than tea parties and speeches that have no meaning because, as you've said, the don't put food on the table).

We've been trying to "hold you accountable" but you don't want to be held accountable. If you truly did, those documents woul have been released already.

Liv Manto   March 8th, 2008 11:15 am ET

Obama cant even control his TOP FOREIGN POLICY Adviser on spouting vile words when she herself is downright ugly.

If Obama cant control his staff, do you really think he can control the whole country? It takes experience to be a good manager. Everyone knows that. This guy is so smug and arrogant that he's basically saying he will not share power with anyone.

Also, the comments about Hillary are downright mean and nasty. Where is the humanity among the young generation, have they lost enough contact with human beings and have relied on computer war games and internet chat to feel enough sympathy for any person?
All those talk about records and secrecy. Let me tell you something young folks, someday you would have to deal with making mature decisions too. All those talk about transparency does not work, just look at you right now. If you ever see documents on Rezko's dealing with Obama right now, do you think you would still be with Obama? Of course not, because most of you are idealist fools. Between Hillary putting food on my table and Hillary being ousted for keeping secrets, Id rather have her keep her secrets and put my food on my table. Thats all there is young folks. Stop spending time on the internet, get real human contact.

Obama is so misleading. Hillary has said she voted for the war. HE has yet to say that he wasn't in congress. Hard to say you wouldn't vote for something you ween't able to vote in. Of course, I think Obama's advisors are taking hits for their disclosures to other countries. He is just doing what he has done all along. He says one thing to one time and another when he thinks it will get him a vote.
The only transparency about him is that he lies.
