Ironic because it has to do with Penn, Mark that is. Here is how his new role is described: In a separate conference call, Clinton spokesman Howard Wolfson likened Penn to a newspaper editor who "plays an important role but isn't in charge" of the paper. And Hillary thinks/says she handled this better than Obama? She acts like Penn is completely gone...what a farce. Hillary makes it hard to like her, face it. She has too much baggage. She may have more expirence, I am sure dodging sniper fire is a resume builder. How about a try at honesty and credibility instead of double talk and false claims?

I do not see this as a way to win in the general election. I do however see that condemning comments about either side shreds into the possibility of a Democrat being elected in November. I wish people would begin to see that when we focus on each other we do not see the real scary figure cloaked in red. I see McCain with Iron scepter in one hand and saber in the other and this frightens me. There is far more at stake this year then Hilary or Barrack. Its time people begin to see this. Thanks Jan,

Honestly, does Hillary Clinton have a shot to win the nomination. She is down in the delegate count, popular vote, states won, etc. She also doesn't have that big of a lead with superdelegates. She can say she can win the big states, but democrats usually win the big states. The only two question marks are Ohio and Florida - but if Obama is as strong of a candidate as he is showing he might have a shot taking away republican strongholds. So as I see it, Hillary Clinton is done. And I am a Hillary Clinton supporter! At this point, I want to know who I can support in the general election. I haven't voted in my primary yet, and I want to know. Please, enough with the . . . Al Gore could still get in and Hillary might go after big states . . . it's over. Don't report RUMORS - report TRUTH. If Al Gore is being thrown in the ring - why don't we just have Bill Clinton run against McCain. He would be a guranteed winner. It wouldn't take "a" Clinton to clean up after Bush #2 - it would take "the" Clinton! Just a thought. Is this democratic battle over? Honestly, does Hillary Clinton have a shot to win the nomination. She is down in the delegate count, popular vote, states won, etc. She also doesn't have that big of a lead with superdelegates. She can say she can win the big states, but democrats usually win the big states. The only two question marks are Ohio and Florida – but if Obama is as strong of a candidate as he is showing he might have a shot taking away republican strongholds. So as I see it, Hillary Clinton is done. And I am a Hillary Clinton supporter! At this point, I want to know who I can support in the general election. I haven't voted in my primary yet, and I want to know. Please, enough with the . . . Al Gore could still get in and Hillary might go after big states . . . it's over. Don't report RUMORS – report TRUTH.

There is no end to the odd and obviously cruel economic structures had by those who think they are "deserving" or "privileged" in some way to have it. For the rich to sustain themselves, they must have the poor to lean upon to keep prices down. How is that ok? I have always wondered why Americans put up with all the corporate greed and buy into republican lies of trickle down theory. It just does not and has never worked. To be American should mean to help those in need and to use the wealth of this nation not just to help those abroad but also to help those who need help at home. Lets buy everyone some bootstraps!
