		<description>Hopefully, Obama struts his stuff on the court, instead of the bowling alley this time around.  If I know Carolina and the Hoosier State, they will eat it up.

If there is one thing Indianans (?) love more than basketball, it&#039;s John Cougar Mellencamp!</description>

		<description>ALL POSITIVE COMMENTS FROM HILLARY SUPPORTERS ARE EITHER SENT INTO PURGOTORY &quot;YOUR COMMENT IS AWAITING MODERATOR&quot; AND THEN ARE DELETED BECAUSE OF PRO-CLINTON

AND THAT MAKES US WORK EVEN HARDER OUTSIDE THE REALM TO GET CLINTON ELECTED....

THAT WILL NOT STOP HILLARY R. CLINTON FROM BEING THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF AMERICA.

ALL BABY BOOMERS IN INDIANA COME OUT AND SUPPORT HILLARY R. CLINTON, THE ONLY CANDIDATE WHO HAS THE EXPERIENCE TO DELIVER!</description>

		<description>It amazes me that if Clinton is ahead, or if she wins the nomination, then SHE IS STEALING IT, why???  Crooked Caucus&#039; , selective memory blocks about the good Bill Clinton did for EVERYONE but himself, he did something totally stupid for himself, but others had it one heck of a lot better than they do now, that&#039;s for sure.  No one will STEAL THE NOMINATION, Obama or Clinton,  Hopefully they will pick one who can and will win in November.  It&#039;s not about now, it&#039;s about November.  There are going to be people who will go to McCain if they are really against one person for some reason you can not stop that.  That&#039;s why this is America., you get a choice but we need to fix the primary mess we made.  Make it simpler and vote, no caucus&#039; and all within one week after 6 months only of all the hype.</description>

		<description>Tim, I agree, the race is over.  We need to brush her aside and move on to the issues and start dealing with McCain.  Hillary has shown she would not make an effective president, so I say we should ignore her and move on to the General.  She has lost.  Bring it on, John, whatcha got?</description>

		<description>Another debate is a waste of time and only free advertising for Clinton. She talks about being outspent. She did not have the money.</description>

		<description>There is ONE question we all should be asking our selves

Which candidate takes lobbyists and Pac monies?

If the voters answer that one question to them selves then the answer should be clear with out a doubt that who can move this country forward and get thing done in Washington for the people who put them in office and be held accountable to the people of the United States. Just in some of you voters don’t know I will list them in order below

Barack Obama - None</description>

		<description>If I were 20s, I mignt like to hear from Barack &quot;hope&quot;, &quot;Change&quot;. The younger,   more emotional. Till you become older, you will think about something more carefully. How to hope? How to change? If Obama is elected, he may be stuned. Country is not like a family, a school, even a state, is that so easy to make change? How can you change? Easy to talk, difficult to do. You even wanted to drop out debate, how can you handle a country when something happen. It is not joke, it is for a whole country. Hillary is much more trustable, stable because of her experience, she can fight all the way for American, she won&#039;t give up American if there is something happen. But Obama, I can&#039;t see that at all. So think about more things, you will make wise choice.</description>

		<description>Hillary is our choice, 100%, and she&#039;s not asking for any time-outs to relax on an island instead of working hard to get her message across to the country!

Go Hillary!!! You are the only one who can beat McCain and Democrats keep getting the proof!</description>

		<description>There should be an openly televised debate between Hillary and Obama where superdelegates ask the questions with no time limit.  It could be run in a similar fashion as a congressional hearing.  This should happen as soon as possible.  Hillary is ready.  Will Obama accept the challenge?  I will defer to Peloci and Dean to determine how many superdelegates can ask questions of the candidates.  The entire group of superdelegates could come up with a list of questions and then trim it down to the most important questions that would determine how they vote.  Hopefully the superdelegates will use their political savy to vote for the greater good of the general population.</description>

		<description>Hillary is manipulative, vindictive, devisive, shameless, back-stabbing person. Why people keep voting for her?????

CLINTONS=REPUBLICANS

Wake up democrats, you need our support Independents, but we do not see you being very smart on this one. All the support that Obama is having form Independents and some Republicans will go away if you Democrats do not stand up, have a back bone and finish this bloody race that the Clintos + Republicans are doing to your Party.

Democrats + Independents + Some Republicans = Win for Obama!</description>

		<description>When I hear someone say that-- &quot;people are not as dumb as the Clinton&#039;s think&quot;, I tend to disagree strongly.

Just look at the folks who are still out there talking on behalf of an &quot;impeached family&quot;; someone who lied to this nation again and again!

Look at the people who continue to donate their hard-working $$ to someone with $109 million, who can afford to loan her campaign.

Most people in this nation are either &quot;dumb&quot; or are simply &quot;racist&quot;.  Give me a better explanation than the above.  I will read your comments.</description>

		<description>A trial was set for March 2007, but it was delayed due to an appeal of a lower-court&#039;s decision to dismiss Sen. Clinton as a defendant. The California Supreme Court upheld the decision, but Sen. Clinton, nevertheless, will be required to testify under oath along with her husband as  material witnesses.

Seven years ago Peter Paul began whistleblowing to the government and alerting the media of numerous illegalities committed by Hillary and Bill Clinton in order to win Hillary’s first election to public office.

The multi-million dollar donor to Hillary’s Senate campaign that caused Hillary’s finance director to be indicted and tried in May, 2005, for hiding his contributions, and whose complaint to the FEC resulted in a finding that Hillary’s campaign broke the law resulting in the only FEC fine imposed against Hillary’s campaign, will begin the discovery process leading to a trial in Los Angeles later this year of the Clintons and others for destroying Paul’s public company.

The lawsuit claims that Peter Paul was fraundulenty induced to make a 1.2 million in-kind contribution to Senator Hillary Clinton&#039;s 2000 senate campaign in exchange for former President Bill Clinton to be a rainmaker for this company once he left the White House.  Paul claims that former President Clinton backed out of the $17 million deal, and his company collapsed

CNN, WHY IS THIS NOT ALL OVER THE NEWS.  is it being saved for the republicans to use in case the superdelegates are forced to give Sen. Clinton the nomination?  How far would the Clinton&#039;s go to win.</description>

		<description>North Carolina will go Republican in the general election. It won&#039;t help Obama against John McCain. Hillary would be a stronger candidate because she can attract some of the Christian and Evangelical voted which is more important in the general election.</description>

		<description>You know, I do believe Coach K. &quot;might&quot; go for Senator McCain but I won&#039;t be surprised if otherwise......I mean, not HIllary, LOL!!!

But you know what?  I do think my boy can take both Indiana and North Carolina.  I think is safe to say that North Carolina is going to go for my boy, I think he&#039;ll win a very good amount but Indiana though, now that&#039;s a different story...


I know Indiana votes Rep in the general election but I really do believe if my boy can not only take Indiana on May 6 but also if he takes the &quot;Hoosier State&quot;, I really do believe he has a great chance to take Indiana in the GE(General Election).  To me, Indiana should be close, and I&#039;m actually gonna do more research whether my boy can take the &quot;Hoosier State.&quot;</description>

		<description>Play with Obama today… and fight in Iraq with John in Nov.

America wake up- Obama is a demagogue- the slickest of politicians.

But he can not reach most of America.

The democrats know who to nominate so that they will always lose the election.

Obama= lose in Nov.</description>

		<description>When all is done, Obama has the most delegates, the most votes, etc. I think he should declare himself the nominee in a discreet way and summon all Democrats to back him in the remaining primaries so there can be a unified party asap. Voters should in essence, abandon their attachment to Hilary, and get on the Obama wagon. It is crazy for people to go out and vote for the one who is not going to win.</description>

		<description>Here&#039;s a chance for Obama to make up for the &quot;bowling&quot; incident: Basketball is actually something that he KNOWS how to play! He lived for that sport back in his old school days. I wonder if he&#039;s still got it?</description>

		<description>Watching Hillary look straight into the camera and lie with severals times with so much ease, makes me cringe.   Sen Clinton and i mean to be very respectful, cannot be trusted with power.  Look what she does, twisting every single thing and running away with just about anything for to win.  She says just about anything to win, can you imagine that combined with power.  Good Lord, we are in for a might rough ride in congress.   Everything will end up in deadlock, and nothing will be done.  Besides she starts with 57% of Americans thinking that she&#039;s a dishonest, and rightfully so.   Can&#039;t we as americans see this?   

Sen Obama on the other hand will be considerate of the other (Republican) sides&#039; argument and then working hard at educating them on why their positions are wrong and at the same time presenting the democratic course to the american people, in order to pressure their republican representative may just be the way to go.   I believe this is what Sen Obama has consistently advocated to the american people.  

Dialogue is key in succesful governance.   Sen Clinton has not proved that she can negotiate with all americans.</description>

		<description>errors in first post:
The DNC, the democratic party elites, screwed up.

They fixed the election for Obama-  then...
All the Kennedy, Kerry , Shriver endorsements advantaged Obama.
The Celebrity bandwagon led by Oprah, advantaged Obama.
The infatuated Media and their biased coverage and scrutiny of the candidates, advantaged Obama.
Flawed caucus format- advantaged Obama
Discounting Fl and Mi voters- advantaged Obama.

All that and he STILL just has a narrow, narrow lead.

Now the DNC will force the Superdelgates to go against the rules and vote for Obama- in hopes of salvaging this chaotic primary mess.

They do that, not because those are the rules- the rules are quite the contrary.  They do it because they are afraid of alienating the newly registered democrats and the very vocal African American community.

They should worry more about alienating the REST of America- including 50% of the democrats who will not vote for Obama.</description>

		<description>Would you remain a faithful constituent for more than twenty years of a church that preaches racism?  Would racist sermons inspire you to have your children baptized by the minister who delivered the racists sermons?  Those sermons are public now ... in their entirety!  Have you listened to them?  Clearly Obama has ... for more than twenty years those sermons have served as his spiritual guidance in life!  There is no ifs, ands or buts about it, Rev. Wright is a bona fide racist!  Those sermons also have played a HUGE role in deepening the racial divide that remains in this country.  Obama preaches unity while attending that church?  Are you all blind?  Obama is a smart guy ... too smart to convey the spiritual message that he prays to every Sunday on a political stage!  Vote on actual merits America, not emotional speeches that promise change just because the speaker knows that, that&#039;s what you all want to hear.</description>

		<description>Hey Clyburn....Why don&#039;t you say something about Wright&#039;s and Obama&#039;s lying bizzarre.  Why because they are African Americans.  You are bizarre.  Grow up.

You are the one who is bizzare and a disgrace.  Racial discrimination against African American has been overused and misused.  Actually you are now beginning to be racial.  To get away with bad comments and bad behavior you will always use the racial issue as an EXCUSE.   Shut up.

Beware North Carolinians and Indianians….Obama lied and just a Politician.</description>

		<description>Johnnyboy it&#039;s too bad you are hypnotized by the Obama mantras. He&#039;s a goose in a large field of hunters and Hillary isn&#039;t the problem for him. Its going to be the Republicans if Obama is nominated.
His house of cards built on the backs of naive young people will come falling down on his butt when the going starts to get rough. He is nothing more then shinny sparkles and New Year&#039;s Eve goose whistles. He has a good platform but he doesn&#039;t have the guts or political expertise to pull it off. Anyway, who would want to vote for someone that calls everyone a racist when they don&#039;t see things his way? To think that he actually smeared the former president of the United States Bill Clinton with saying that he made racist statements was the total last straw for me. Bill served the African American community to a T when he was president, we&#039;ll see how good Obama does if he is nominated and actually becomes president. Obama won&#039;t get my vote even though I have been voting democrat for 40 years, Clinton 08 or nobody.</description>

		<description>So if someone votes for Clinton, they&#039;re stupid, undeducated, racist, foolish, etc etc and only the Obama backers are wise enough, smart enough, educated enough to be able to see whats really best for America and everybody else should just shut up.  If that isn&#039;t elitest BS  I don&#039;t know what is.  Thats why so many dem are going to leave the party over the foul attitudes that permiate the Obama camp.  Hillary isn&#039;t splitting the party, your driving away Obama&#039;s only chance of victory and you have no one to blame but yourselfs. Although you&#039;ll blame everybody else but your precious darling Barack.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m tired of people talking down on Hillary! Obama and his campaign have been extremely negative towards Hillary and have turned most of his supporters into HATERS!! How&#039;s that for the politics of change? 

I think Obama is a politician like the rest. Has everybody fooled. But I tell you this much, if he wins and gets into the white house, I&#039;m holding him up to his message which is bogus anyways.</description>

		<description>Don&#039;t worry, Obama will get the nomination a couple days after May 6.  Even if Hillary wins Indiana.  The supers will rush to Obama due to the fact that he is winning most states, most swing states, popular vote, has over 70% of young voters which are most of the new voter registrations, bringing in Independents and Republicans.  

The race is over, Hillary loses. The End</description>

		<description>For anyone that doesn&#039;t think people in Indiana will vote for Obama just because he is a baller, think again.  This alone is worth 1 or 2 points at least, which in this primary, could be the difference.  Hoosiers are obsessed with basketball to a level that is simply not seen anywhere else.  Per capita, Indiana has sent more players to the NBA than any other state.</description>

		<description>Policy matters!  I&#039;m pretty objective, if obama could explain what he will do once he was president, give more detail about his policy on health insurance, foreign policy,  how to develop the economy, i  could vote for him! If he can&#039;t give specific details, then he isnot ready!</description>

		<description>Someone please stop the madness!  Clinton, Obama one or the other will be the next president.  It is obvious that as long as these two keep being pitted against each other, over ridiculously trivial political fodder, unrest and insecurity will reign supreme in the democratic party.   Carville or however you spell his name was correct the other day when he implied that no one cares or needs to care about what he or any of the other pundits have to say.  It is time for serious conversation about serious issues that will affect our country&#039;s future.  All of the candidates need to get control over there organizations and get back to clean, issue based debate to win my vote!  And as a side note , the media, and pseudo-media like Glenn Beck and others need to get back to work in their professions vice trying to force feed America their misinformed, narrow and somewhat idiotic viewpoints.</description>

		<description>Well , Johnny Boy has it ever occured to you that Ohio and PA are the smart ones.
This is a democratic process and should run it&#039;s course.
So far Obama has not done well enough to emerge as the winner and that is dispite outspending any other candidate.</description>

		<description>I am so disgusted with this whole mess. The media keeps focusing on Rev. Wright when that horrid monster of a woman is about to go to court. Where is the coverage of Clinton Vs. Paul?? For God&#039;s sakes, people, she can&#039;t even manage her own campaign! Oh yes, please, let&#039;s elect this woman to fix our health care. She doesn&#039;t even pay her own employee&#039;s health insurance! what is wrong with everyone!! Hillary Clinton and her dishonest, disloyal, snaky skank of a lying racist husband are the bottom of the filth barrel of this country. The skum that rests in my toilet tank. God help us if she steals, lies and cheats her way into the nomination. I have no faith in the American people anymore after this election. I have never seen such a bunch of idiots in my life.</description>

		<description>H Clinton claims of more popular votes is just another example of how dishonest she is. She ignores the DNC rules for FLD and MCHG just because  by doing  so it gives her some advantage. She can destroy the  DP, she doesn&#039;t care. She is selfish and untrustworthy</description>
