		<description>This is a double standard. It is like when Bill said Obama was a fairy tale which is true. He&#039;s not.

Now he is attacking me and every other Hillary supporter, get over yourself Richardson.

		<description>All campaigns are rough &amp; tough.  If you think Hillary is being tough on Obama, just wait and see what the Republicans and their minions do to him if he gets the nomination.  Unfortunately, he&#039;s like all of us, he&#039;s human and has some skeletons that the Republicans are going to use against him.  The Repbulicans wrote the book on dirty tricks and smear tactics.  Look what they did to McCain in his race against W.  And he was a Repblican.  This campaign stuff ain&#039;t nothing compared to the pressures you must overcome when you are the President.  Besides, if you are not smart enough to see through campaign BS, you don&#039;t need to be voting.   Quit whining and get on with it.</description>

		<description>All of this is really making me lose complete and utter faith in America as a society. The sheer idiocy and manpower that steers individuals like George W. Bush and Hilary Clinton towards the White House is completely overwhelming. The lies, the spinning, all of it.

The audacity of hope, indeed.</description>

		<description>What a shame.  Richardson is so bitter no pun intended. Obviously, he dislikes the Clintons for personal reasons and this is not a reason to hurt Hillary or to humiliate her in this way.  Obama and Richardson are both very arrogant. He is angry but Hillary was not the {PRESIDENT) that gave him the opportunity of his lifetime. How easily they forget.  What a shame. Hillary is a woman with great intellect and her own person. How dare he demean her that way. I think the media is doing this adequately.

Friends like him they do not need enemies.   Jamal said something last evening that was very disturbing.  He could not get over how angry the Black people were towards the Clinton&#039;s during his Radio call-in. This tells me they are voting for Obama for all the wrong reasons. 
Wow!!!!!!
Please do not say this is not voting because of RACE. It is. I hope the American people wake-up because there is good in both these people but Obama just does not get it and Hillary does. Wisdom!

Go Hill Go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</description>

		<description>Who are all these young and educated supporters?  Are you talking about high school students because that&#039;s who he is counting on.  New young voters and anybody that will sign up and vote.....for him.

Again I ask the question because on the rallies I have seen, the people sitting behind Obama are neither young or look educated.</description>

		<description>The Clintons seem to have their supporters hypnotized. When Obama was campaigning on Hope and a unified NATION (vs the divisive red/blue, black/white, rich/poor, blue collar/ educated), THE CLINTONS were the first to inject race into the running. Where they didnt lead with the negativity they fueled it. When Obama FINALLY hit back - oh, NOW he is a negative campaigner. so its OK for the Clintons to be - just no one else.

They dismiss states who vote for Obama as insignificant, voters who vote for him as silly and inexperienced - dumb, they comment that they superdelegates who back him are &quot;irrelevant and insignificant&quot;. The only time any of these count is whenever SHE benefits.

I started this process with very high regards for both her and her husband, but the longer this goes on the more my respect and admiration diminishes, buried under the pettiness alnd length to which they and their supporters, surrogates and mouthpieces are willing to go to get a nomination.....sad....</description>

		<description>I think Richardson is pathetic. I have been in many a chat room and out into the community and they people who are the rudest are the Obama supporters who are claiming the whites are racist. I don&#039;t understand where he gets off with this line of attack. If a Clinton supporter says something we demonize them, but if an Obama supporter says something it&#039;s the word of God. I tell you what if there was ever more of a Bias in this country I&#039;ve never seen it, and I hope after this is over everyone realizes the truth! I can&#039;t believe I am actually still in the democratic party. I will tell you one thing though... after the treatment Obama supporters have given me I don&#039;t think I will ever support him!</description>

		<description>I watched him on Larry King... The man (the Gov) needs help. There&#039;s no other way to describe Gov. Richardson than to say SEXIST. 

Gov, this question is for you. Do you wish you could have made it this far, instaed of Hillary?

 I still think you are let down.. 

By the way, there&#039;s no throne. People vote here.</description>

		<description>Richardson is right but I would one up him further, I believe the Clintons intend to steal the nomination or the minimum hurt Obama so badly and give Republicans ammunition against Obama. She is acting like a spoiled child how decides to take her ball home and cry because she isn&#039;t getting her way.

I believe you can no longer have a rational discussion with Hillary Clinton supporters because I believe they are to ignorant, to uneducated to understand something as complex as if you don&#039;t beat Obama in the last 10 primaries by a margin of 65% to 35% you can even get close to his numbers to say this should go to the convention.</description>

		<description>I hate Carville but I also love the guy.  Richardson is a backstabber of epic proportions.  Obama seems to me to be the Anti-Christ.  A smooth talker that can move thousands of people to tears without saying much at all.  I respect Hillary for sticking to her guns and fighting hard to win the nomination, even when people like Richardson are telling her to give it up.</description>

		<description>Its funny to me that former members of Bill Clinton&#039;s administration are supposed to back Hillary just because.  Richardson doesn&#039;t owe Hillary anything. He was appointed to a post and served Bill.  That&#039;s it.  Has he forever given loyalty to any Clinton that does anything?  He&#039;s right-- he ran against Hillary and nobody was offended.  They&#039;re just mad.  Maybe her feelings are hurt.  I&#039;m suprised she didn&#039;t cry before Pennsylvania like New Hampshire...  

James Carville won&#039;t say why he&#039;s only upset with Richardson.  There have been other Clinton defectors, but James is still so upset by Richardson.  That&#039;s more interesting to me...</description>

		<description>Go away Judas!  Has Obama offerred you the VP spot or what?  Obama still couldn&#039;t win the latino vote with you on the ticket.  Do you know why?  I think it has something to do with Latinos being tired of  Blacks accusing them of taking their jobs.

Good luck Obama winning that vote even if Richardson is on your ticket!!!</description>

		<description>I am also from Florida.  When I voted in the primary, it was with the understanding that the vote would not count because my state broke the rules of the DNC.  I think Florida and Michigan should not be counted.  Rules are there for a reason.  If you decide to break a rule,  be prepared to suffer the backlash.  Florida should stop being in the middle of everything and know that our state government knew the rules as well.  Obama and Clinton both signed off on the rules.  I think this should be a dead issue.  And for all fairness Florida nor Michigan should not even want to have their votes counted.  Yea, send the wrong message to the kids,  if you break a rule,  instead of being punished we will make exceptions.  I am very disappointed in my state.  Be strong and take your punishment like adults.</description>

		<description>Richardson is a has-been and because he is backing Obama and going against the will of the voters in New Mexico, he will not be relected next time.  Keep looking for that new home in Texas cause the folks in New Mexico are about to kick your butt to the curb. .  

Richardson would be washing dishes today if it wern&#039;t for the Clintons who made him what he is today. JUDAS is to kind of a word to place on him, I can think ofa lot of more appropriate adjatives to call him.</description>

		<description>I guess &quot;folks&quot; in small towns and states are &quot;smarter and more educated&quot; than folks in the BIG states!!  Hillary is from NY--

NY, PA, FL, CA etc. (except TX), continue to amaze us!  Just look at the &quot;wisdom&quot; of the smaller states-- Indianna, NC, Iowa etc.-- . Left to them, this madness would have been over with before now!!</description>

		<description>Those people who say Senator Obama disenfranchised Florida and Michigan voters are sounding like idiots. The DNC made that decision, Hillarys said it is Obama fault, the media prints her lie and now some of you actually believe it.</description>

		<description>I find it funny that people say that Hillary will do anything to become the first woman president. Isn&#039;t that what Obama is doing? He wants to go into the history books as the first black president. I know Michelle Obama would like to be the first black female president....why else would she pushing Obama so hard. I personally don&#039;t have anything against him. I just don&#039;t think he has what it takes. He&#039;s a junior senator with no track record behind him and I don&#039;t like the way he is playing to the black community.  As I see it right now it&#039;s race against gender.</description>

		<description>Tessa,

Is that who you really are or are you a plant pretending to change your support from Clinton?  

Did it ever occur to you that maybe Clinton is doing this because she believes that she is the best candidate for the party and that her supporters are encouraging her to keep on.  I believe she is the better candidate.  I wil never vote for Obama and there is a large percentage of the Clinton support that won&#039;t either if he gets the nomination.  That&#039;s a fact if you just read the news.  

She&#039;s not destroying anything and people that tell you that are just people that want her out so Obama can have it.</description>

		<description>For someone young and educated, you have no manners and no respect for anyone other than people that agree with you it appears.

I find that appaling and shame on you and your attitude. 

Even at 26, I&#039;m well aware of how social security won&#039;t be around when I retire, so I must rely on two things: myself, OR, my government to take care of me.

I choose myself everytime because I trust myself.  The government is a last resort, not a first one.  This is why a MAJORITY of people over 40 will not vote for Obama, because they know what his future tax plans will do to their retirement funds.

Obama may bring necessary changes needed to improve our country, but people against him feel that he can do far more harm than good to this nation.  It&#039;s as simple as that.  

I applaud your support, but we simply disagree.  It has nothing to do with education or age or anything for that matter...</description>

		<description>Governor Richardson, an honest man of integrity, is called a &#039;traitor&#039; for voting his conscience instead of &#039;political payback&#039; , this says a lot about the Clintons. The news media smoothed this comment over the same way they have smoothed over Hillary&#039;s support of NAFTA and the Columbian Trade Deal and Hillary saying &#039;screw &#039;em&#039; in reference to Southern voters. That comment has been verified and yet received 1 little blurb in the news while Senator Obama&#039;s &#039;bitter&#039; word in describing the feelings of some American voter&#039;s got 5 days of front page news, all negative. Guess what? I am becoming very &#039;bitter&#039; about this bias reporting.</description>

		<description>That is a lot of Bull, did I hear you say the Obama campaign make negative remarks?  what or who have been listening to?  Clinton is a Negative person, and of all people, try to use dirt, but then, look at her background.  Anyone who stays with a man, who not in his own house, but our house (The White House) have sex with an intern young enough to be his daughter, and stand up and lie to the American people is bad enough but to do sucha thing is downright
dirty, and sick and what that says to us the american people screw you, &quot;In your face&quot; and then have the audacity to talk about a man about his minister, not the man, and just what standards are these
Clintons trying to hold Obama to and the pitiful people that vote for them.  i feel so sorry for america if that is all they can produce,I will
not vote at all</description>

		<description>Obama negative? did you watch the ABC debate? How many times did he get negative vs her? did you see the last commercial Hillary put out in PA? Why not show the great accomplishments of past presidents... why show pearl harbor/osama etc.?

Clintons push the OLD button push the OLD button push the OLD button
Obama deflects and then pushes back at the end and the Clintons say &quot;see, it&#039;s him!! no fair, whaaaa =(&quot;

Is he negative b/c of the &quot;bitter&quot; comments? is that it? are you even in touch with America? lots of us are bitter... old politicians haven&#039;t lifted a finger for us and we can&#039;t go anywhere in the world without being looked down upon... let alone inflation, gas prices, war etc. etc. We are bitter and optimistic that with the right president things can change - not same old politicians and politics that never changes anything.</description>

		<description>Bill Richardson is just seeking for VP position which he will never get he has missed his opportunity and as they say, Opportunity comes but once.  Had it been that Obama won in PA the tune will change that he is able to win in the big states.  But now that Hillary is showing that is best, better and good leadership, Obama camp is crying like a baby.  After all Obama said that he is having problem with the seniors the reason is because he doesn&#039;t respect seniors and that is why he is having problems with seniors.  As you all can see Obama is very arrogant and kioki towards every one unless those Black voters who thing just because he is black all black people should vote for him.

Another thing is that leaders are naturally born and some are leaders and some followers.  To me I believe Obama is a follower and not a leader.  He may be handsome but if your parents are mixed like him definitely he/she will be handsome/beautiful.  As you all know Catholics put George Bush in the White House and for the first time Catholics voted for Hillary that to show you people she is better candidate to help the country.

Also, black people should ask themselves a question if Obama is big in black community and past leaders why wasn&#039;t him at Martin Luther King memory service? See to show his arrogancy too big to attend.
All I can say, he should look for a VP position or gather more experience before looking for the highest job in the world.  No one will hire a freshman to head his/her company take Dow Jones for example they will never ever take someone with MBA to be a CEO or handle their most strategic position.

Go Hillary &#039;08</description>

		<description>CNN,

Carville is right. Obama is running away from debates and a re-vote.  Whatever Richardson talked didn&#039;t appeal to me as logic. Obama is scared of re-vote. He knows that he is going to loose. We don&#039;t want a president who is scared and running away from things.</description>

		<description>Ohhh, little Obama is afraid of the big bad wolfe.  Hillary is making him uncomforable.  Well, he has not seen anything yet if he becomes the nominee. 

I do not view her ads as negative - I veiw them as part of a campaign where she is trying to win and has every right to bring up ads that will make people think about the past, present and future and who could best handle the world&#039;s problems.   She is strong and he is weak.</description>

		<description>Roger:  The Clintons THREW THE FIRST STONES.  The Obama campaign has had no other choice but to defend and attack back or risk looking like wimps.  Its pathetic that attacking and destroying your opponent IS the only way to win in our country!  This says a lot about how we have been influenced by the AM Radio hate-mongers.  Can we rise above all the mud??? 

Poor James Carville, his face says it all, &quot;I am one mean &amp; anger dude.&quot;  James, you claim to be a Catholic, a Christian.  How about some grace?

PS. Roger, in South Carolina it was Bill who FIRST played the race card.  Its been downhill ever since.</description>

Your disloyalty is breathtaking...I am so so very sorry I once thought of voting for you.  What job did Obama and his Chicago hacks promise you to make you turn your back on experience and skills in favor of snappy speaches and feel good silliness?</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t want to see another debate if it is not going to focus on issues.  I don&#039;t care about their personal business, such as where they worship or who they have had so called &quot;contact&quot; with.  I want to know what each one plans to do about:  Economy, Gas prices, Education(making school districts more accountable, not just testing)(college more affordable for kids who parents pay taxes), Health Care (for everyone and the price of insurance, medications), Housing( So we will not have so many Americans homeless) AND Crime( So our kids can stay safe).  I have real concerns, because I have children who must grow up in this great nation.  I can&#039;t even watch Ms. Clinton, because she is very negative.  It was not long ago, that we defended her husband against those who wanted to impeach him because of his personal life.   Did we ever get a conclusion to Whitewater?  Obama has yet to come out swinging her dirt and I say good for him and staying out of the norm of politics.  I think debates can only get ugly, if our dear media friends keep taking us back to things that are not important.  STAY FOCUS AMERICA</description>

		<description>I have to commend Bill Richardson for voting the way he feels led. Personally, I think Carville was way out of line with his remarks... Just because Richarson has his own mind and is not afraid to express his choice?... Isn&quot;t that one of our  constitutional rights??? 
I didn&#039;t hear Bill Richardson  calling names.... To me, that only shows who the more professional person was...With supporters like Carville, I can see why Hillary is behind and will never get the nomination...</description>

		<description>How can anyone be upset because Richardson backed Obama?
Just because he worked with the Clintons at one time does not entitle the Clintons to his support. He admits that the Clintons have done alot for him, but he does not own them his pledge! Come on people this is the future of America we are talking about, maybe he knows  something about the Clintons that we don&#039;t, and he just does not want the dynasty to go on. We have already had to many years of the Clintons and the Bushs. I hope that we can end it now.....has anyone noticed that HRC showes signs of being a female Bush?</description>

		<description>Richardson has no leg to stand on.  He and the Clintons go way back and for him to betray them for his own personal gain was just a back stabbing move.  If he had waited to endorse, he&#039;d be picking Hillary right now because she&#039;s making the big news.  Now he&#039;s trying to get his guy back into the race, because suddenly that cabinent seat is starting to look out of reach.

Its all politics, and he&#039;s just the guy trying to get left overs from the king / queen.</description>

		<description>Bottom line is the only candidate running now who is fresh and new and offering something different, real change--is Obama. Clinton is not only running on her husband&#039;s record, but also for his 3rd term....McCain is running for Bushes 3rd. By the way Jeremiah Wright is a better man and American than a lot of the people who are judging him. Bill Ayers wasn&#039;t convicted of anything. Obama did nothing illegal with Rezko. Michelle Obama has a right to her feelings and comments...if its the 1st time she is proud of her country, then that&#039;s how she feels, doesn&#039;t mean that&#039;s how Obama feels....even though they are married they don&#039;t share the same brain or mind, had separate up bringings and exposure. Clinton &amp; McCain are the real elistist...they are just great pretenders!</description>

		<description>Clinton backers are free to make up their own minds.  Richardson made his decision.  Others are free to do the same.  No one should be criticized for who they support.

They still need to figure out how they&#039;re going to handle Michigan &amp; Florida.  It&#039;s pretty clear that there&#039;s going to be no decisive victory for either candidate and Michigan &amp; Florida have to be represented somehow.  McCain is already using it as fodder for his campaign.

It&#039;s doubtful the DNC will ever get organized enough to make a responsible decision and the Democrats are likely to be fighting about it all the way through to the convention &amp; beyond.</description>

		<description>roger- the voters do have a choice, its called Obama vs McCain in the fall.  Hillary can&#039;t win, under any circumstances, except coup by superdelegates, or Obama falls under a bus.  Her campaign is trying to rationalize their continued existence, but they&#039;re just helping McCain too much.  Is she an (R) now?

People are eager to get rid of Bush, but don&#039;t confuse that with with a need to vote in this primary.  The primary is over, Obama won.  Now people need to accept that, get behind him, and take out McCain.

Since we are where we are, I say let them vote in 2 weeks at Indiana and SC, but the superdelegates should step in after that and end it.  Since Obama will only be about 180 delegates short and Clinton about 350 short, they should give it to Obama and lets be done with this.</description>

		<description>I watched the entire show last night and found Richardson to be on point, while Carville was clearly desperate for Hillary. Seems, now, the person who wins IN should be the nominee. I thought we were just going to disenfranchise all the caucus states from the popular count, and include the two states who lost the privelege to be counted in the process. Yes, that sound fair, in a Clintoneque sort of way. We will be a strong party after Hillary has finally given her concesion speach. We will hear from all the states - then it&#039;s buh-bye Hillary.</description>

		<description>Carville is a spin doctor, a good one,  but those who spin the &quot;truth&quot; are what is wrong with our politcal system. Politicians usually don&#039;t say what they mean and rarely come out with a straight forward answer. I think Richardson won this round as he came over as being more sincere. I think  the fact that Hillary&#039;s camp, Carville being the talking head for it, want Michigan and Florida to count only because they won. Obama wasn&#039;t even on the ballot and didn&#039;t campaign there. If Clinton had loss those states I think she would be speaking another tune. I think Obama should be the nominee with Hillary right there as VP. Then if she does a good job as VP, then she can be President as she would then have experience. Stop the phony talk and negative bashing and unite the country not just the Dem. party.</description>
