I own a small Mechanical company and my bill for gas is $3200.00 a month. If Obama pays for some of my bill I might even vote for him

This is nuts. I can't believe people are falling for this cr*p
Americans use 386 million gallons of gasoline daily.
In three months thats 34 billion 740 million gallons of gasoline.
Or a loss of Federal tax highway spending of $6,948,000,000.00
Now you tell me how long it's going to take Hillary to get that money from the oil companies.
100 Years?
What a joke.

Mike, you obviously do not go to church. In every Church, I've been to, the children do not sit in the pews, they are in Bible study.

Obama must not react. Clinton's vote bank is that of those who buy in fear mongering and negativity, and do not want change. Therefore negativity and fear mongering works for Clinton.

Obama's vote bank is that of educated, intelligent, and daring people who would consider their intelligence insulted if Obama goes negative.

McCain's vote bank is also similar to that of Obama except for war and tax cuts for rich. Hard core conservatives are not going to vote for him.

So Obama needs to get ready to face McCain who has a nice image but bad policies. That means against McCain he will have to keep his focus on issues instead of personalities.

Obama needs to maintain his policy of talking on issues and not on personalities and negativites if he is to win agains McCain.

Typical of Hillary Clinton to come out with negative ads right before the election.
She continues her scare tactics, remember the ad with bin Ladin in it?

Hopefully CNN will stop being biased in the future.

Obama 08

WHAT'S WRONG WITH HILLARY TRYING TO SNOWBALL PEOPLE INTO BELIEVING GEORGE W. BUSH HAS ALREADY SAID HER PROPOSAL AIN'T HAPPENING. PEOPLE PLEASE LISTEN TO THE NEWS, HILLARY WILL SAY ANYTHING.

I think the comments on this board show that the ad should work. People in this country are so stupid, there will be a significant number of people that believe that $35 per year (which will only be obtained if prices aren't increased by local vendors and/or oil companies) will actually make a difference – instead of the comprehensive plan put forward by Obama – for his plans go to http://www.barakobama.com

WE NOW KNOW THE TRUTH: Hillary was against this gas tax gimmick when her rival Lazio proposed it before her during her senate campaign.

Bill Clinton opposed it. Governor Easley opposed it.

EXPERTS oppose it.

Conservationists are appalled by the notion of this gas tax gimmick

Obama has this right.

Hoosiergirl, if you read these blogs unfortunately there are a lot of stupid people out there they have not yet realize that first of all its nothing she can do in 2008, non of the candidates will be president during the summer, and its amazing how these people are triping about 30 cents I live in Atlanta and thats an insult to me I can't do anything with 30 cents and she should know but shes praying on the uneducated and the elderly, God will get her in the end.

Obama/08

Clinton cannot even tax the oil companies profits, she's not President. We all know if the gas tax holiday goes thru, oil companies will just raise the price of gas.

Thank you for that one. If she so bad, get the oil companies to stop their maddness.

I'd love for someone to come out with an ad saying, "Hillary, where is the 1.5 Million from Peter Paul in 2002." Obama would be wrong if he even brought that up. But the media gives her a free ticket when it comes to that. Poor David Rosen was the fall guy, but the issue is not dead just not mentioned. Not fair.

Senator Obama and William Ayers teamed up for three years on the board of the Woods Fund, a Chicago charitable organization. Together, they voted to donate $75,000 of the funds they controlled to the Arab American Action Network. The AAAN was co-founded by Rashid Khalidi, a longtime supporter of Palestinian “resistance” attacks against Israel, which he openly regards as a racist, apartheid state. Despite considerable evidence to the contrary, Khalidi denies having been a PLO operative or having directed its official press agency for six years (from 1976 to 1982).

There are far more questions than answers with Senator Obama.

Good for Hillary. Barack has NO plan! He's ALL talk and NO action. Go Hillary!

If Hillary cared half as much for the working people as she does for herself, we would have a real candidate. But here's a dose of reality folks, Hillary is the most self-centered, selfish person on the planet, and no one can tell me dirrerently.

I change the channel so fast when I see her lying face. How is this women going to get people to listen to her selfish ideas. She uses uneducated people to drum up false excitement about her stupid campaign. She is dividing the Democratic Party already. The Clintons foul up everything they touch. Wherever they go, there's drama. Why? Because they are what this country does not stand for–self-centered, me and only me people. She will never lead anyone as long as her only motive is herself.

The whole Clinton administration was an exercise in drumming up business for himself after he left office. Wake up people, he drafted NAFTA, and now it's hurting average Americans that she says she's trying to protect. She can start by giving back the $800.000 he just made on the backs of Americans.

Obama 08

If Indiana and N.C. don't recognize lie after lie, God help us all.
Americans voted for BUSH TWICE.
The Clinton's will be the next Huge Mistake our country can make.
Bill received $800,000 from Columbia and Dubai 5 MILLION.
What will prevent BILL CLINTON FROM WALKING STRAIGHT TO
THE "FOREIGN LOBBYISTS" TO COLLECT MORE MONEY FOR THE CLINTON FORTUNE!!!!! Having 109 Millions isn't enough for the Clintons?

These people are like the MODERN DAY BONNIE AND CLYDE'S!!!!!

GOOGLE CLINTONS. THEN GOOGLE CLINTON'S OUTSOURCING.
IT WILL KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF!!!!!!!!!!!

Hillary has truly jumped the shark at this time! She is doing exactly what Bush has been doing for the past 7+ years, not listening to the experts because he thinks that he knows it all. Hillarious or McSame – give me a break!!!

Obama '08

HRC CANNOT implement this ridiculous band-aid fix to the gas problem because she hasn't the power to do so. Indiana people, please pay attention…. and vote the TRUTH.

Mike you are such a hypocrite. I'm glad you're so perfect. Maybe you should run for President.

HRC has had issues managing her own campaign is this the advice of a person you want to trust the nation to?????? Maybe if she had listen her campaign would not have nearly run out of money twice…

As all can see in Germany, a women is able to lead a great nation!

Hillary, it is your turn! Hillary for president!

For the stake of the country, please don't just consider dropping out of the race after NC & IN votes, but please do it and quitely out the back door.

No more new plays in an already started contest.

I live in Nevada and we have been told that our state law requires that any reduction in the Federal Gas Tax triggers an increase in the State Gas Tax by the same amount. I can't believe Nevada is alone on this.

Hurray for Hillary. She will stick it to Big Oil. Rather have her, than someone who looks down their nose at me and then tells me how suspending the fed tax on gas won't help me at all this summer. Get over yourself Obama!

Of course Hillary goes negative again, I would'ev bene shocked if she hadn't!

The Clinton camp hopes that America is stupid and say what people want to hear instead of what we need to hear. I hope Indiana and N/C voters are not so simple-minded and ignorant.

Obama '08!

Hillary Clinton is a sleazy bag. She really has no shame. I pray to God several times a day that Barack Obama wins both primaries tomorrow. She should be ashamed of herself — she has made the Democratic party a joke. She has no respect for any of us. All she cares about is herself.

"Goes negative" — can someone tell me when she wasn't negative? It's the entire tone of her campaign. And it SCREAMS desperation. She must have seen the Zogby poll that has Obama ahead 2% in IN.

Obama the racist is helping McCain all the way to the White house. You liberals are so stupid! You're destroying your own party, and we Republicans are laughing very hard right now. Thanks, Reverend Wright!!

We need a strong leader…………

Hillary 08.

A pat on the head and 30 bucks in the wallet might sway a few folks, but the truth is it's more of the same misleading, elitist, top-down Beltway nonsense that's gotten us into the mess we're in.

Obama 08/12

Hillary, we are sick of negative campaigning and saying things just to get few votes. I hope NC and IN are smart enough to not fall for your crap.

Jim.

prices go up as demand goes up… IDIOT!

I could use the extra money…
Guess Obama doesn't need it…

This is a great Ad!! Go Hillary! We don't know enough about Barack Hussein Obama to trust him with the presidency.

Does Hillary Clinton really believe Senator Obama is siding with the oil companies….wow first she said she came under sniper fire in Bosnia and we know what happened there, then she said she would not have stayed at the church had she heard those remarks but she stayed with her husband through all his indescretions and even tried to cover them up…..and Hillary Clinton now wants the American people to believe Senator Obama is siding with the oil compamies because she says so…..
What a joke

visit youtube "the empire strikes barak" hillaryous.

Anyone who thinks that a gas tax holiday is going to have any affect on your botton line is an IDIOT plain and simple.

Making a convenient suggestion at a critical campaign juncture doesn't make you a more qualified leader. Are you going to vote for HRC or McCain because they saved you a few cents during the summer months… Get real people. It is what Obama says it is…a campaign ploy with no muscle.

OK, let's see. In Denver right now we are paying $3.50 a gallon. The federal tax is $.18 a gallon. They say gas will go to $4.00 a gallon over the summer, so if Clinton/McCain get their way, we will only be paying $.32 more a gallon (as opposed to $.50 a gallon) than we are right now. If you buy this as coming to the aid of the consumer, I have some swamp land in Florida you may be interested in.

Quit stooping to gutter politics! Both Barack and Hillary are super candidates for our party but the one that continues with unfavor ads will NOT win my vote!

It should say "Clinton goes negative for the 1000 time in ad"

Sen. Clinton has just demonstrated two of the best reasons for voters to choose Sen. Obama for his superior judgment:

1) Her foolish pandering to voters by proposing a gasoline tax suspension nearly all economists oppose.
2) Her reckless and blustering threat to "obliterate "Iran" if Iran attacked a US ally.

I am increaslingly convinced Sen. Obama shows greater presidential qualities than Sen. Clinton, especially after seeing her negative and "dumb-down" campaign ads like this one.

Wright is not going away…….Oprha figured out after 2 years of attending that church that "something was wrong" and she left. Why did it take Obama 20years to figure it out. He may be "bright" but he's not too "bright"!!!!!!

I am pretty sure Sen Hillary will be busy answering 3 am call and Bill will be running around with a Cuban cigar with an intern.

Ohhh that Hilary…. I'mma miss her when Obama takes the nomination…. her tactics are needed now and again

The American people are tired of the negativity, the misrepresentations and the outright lies by Clinton and her campaign. It only serves to differentiate the candidates' character even more and helps Obama, who insists on taking the high road, in the long run.

What's even more disappointing is that CNN, is now becoming the most mistrusted name in news. Several watch groups have been tracking your headlines here and their reports will show a clear bias, both in coverage and word choice in your headlines.

All Clinton Supporters Please join in the campaign for Hillary !!!

Visit http://www.hillaryclinton.com and pledge your support .

Yes, she thinks we're totally stupid! She will sale her sold to the devil if it meant a win for her. How can you trust her. I need a real break not a temperally fix. Government that all they have been doing is giving us bandage fixes. We want long term fixes and Obama is the man that wil help us get long term relieve.

Does anyone else notice that all the Obama supporters blame the "uneducated" Americans for Hillary's success? Believe it or not the people that support you and that you cater to, are a reflection of you, and if the people that have posted on this site are any reflection of Obama then he is just as much the snobby elitist Hillary points him out to be. Don't get mad at Hillary for being one of the very few people willing to take on the halo Obama seems to be wearing. Also, I doubt the oil companies would raise their prices that much and truly, I care not if it's just a temporary fix. I wouldn't mind paying less at the pump if even for just a little bit.

I trust that folks in Indiana are smart enough to see through pandering just to get elected.

How can she so blantently offend voters in that state and think it will help her bid for the Whitehouse?

Maybe this will finally spell the end of having to listen to the Clinton lies.

honestly, Americans we can see pandering when we see it.
Lets raise our bar…this woman believes you are stupid and not informed, so she does this to you…how can you fall for it…..???
Hilary supporters, just a word of caution, if she does not win, she will treat you the way she treated Richardson…even Andrews decided not to tell her he was defecting from her…becuase of her wrath…and these are close friends of the clinton…what about you voters….she needs you now…so she loves you now…but if she does not succeed , you shall be tossed away like toilet paper…..she will flush you down the drain…ask richards……and ,many of her friends who have now turned enemies…or those states she did not win in…they became iniportant…..or the AA WHO now do not matter to her….you are either for her…or agsainst her..divived and conquer…that is the motto she lives by…..

Hillary is the only one to runthis country….OBAMA HAS NOT A CLUE…
GO HILLARY WIN, WIN!

This tax proposal is a joke. On average, the American driver would save under $100 dollars or so on gas for the whole taxless period. I don't know about you but that doesn't even pay for a weeks worth of food for me.

Plus to think that taking away the federal tax is only like 18 cents per gallon. This amounts to a lot of money for the road system. I don't know about you but it sounds like this type of plan will pave a way for more potholes than anything else.

McCain and Clinton just want to get into office with little gimmicks, not proposing real solutions.

Shame on you Hilllary. You are yet another BUSH!!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA 2008!!!

Kick Obama the drama out of this race. Where the hell is his "Change"?

Hillary 08-12

PLEASE…let's end this, get behind Barack and start talking about the REAL solutions President Obama is offering. Let's get to work!

How can democrats vote for someone who is right now, basically a Republican? She agrees with almost every policy if Mcsame, she voted for the war in Iraq, and she even went on an interview with right-wing Bill O' Reilly.

Meanwhile…….. Mcain marches on the campaign trail as we continue to fight about nonsense!

I'm an elitist. I calculated for myself how much money this tax plan would save me. It would save me $26.67!!!! I don't need an economist to tell me this plan sucks. Great Hillary, next year I will have to pay even more for my kids to get to school. Maybe rather than two hours on a crowed school bus, they'll spend three hours on a crowed school bus. How much more debt can we poor bitter elitist stand.

Sometime you just have to make the right decisions. It might not be popular, but make the right decisions. Too many of us Christians speak about the Iraq war like it was the Godly thing to do, rather than go against the conservative white-house. It’s ok to kill women and children in a foreign country, but we will go to the ends of the earth to stop an abortion. Hillary should have made the unpopular decision and not support the war in Iraq. Now she wants us to think she's making well calculated decision concerning our well being?

Stay in the race all you want Hillary, but cut the crap. This gas tax saving is just a poly on the uninformed.

If Hillary had that much power over the Oil companies, why then is she proposing a gas tax holiday, asking the oil compannies to pay for it. why not tell then to lower the gas prices.

Why does Hillary live on to fight? Because Obama speaks and waits for people to praise him. He and his supporters believe that if you don't like Obama, it's because you're stupid. He can't even begin to imagine how to connect to people outside of fawning crowds on college campuses. If he wanted to become University President of the United States, he'd win. But he's going to get the nomination and then lose in the fall. His popularity has already peaked. All of his frustrated and angry supporters will be even more peeved when Obama "wins" the debates with McCain, by wide margins, but goes nowhere in the polls afterwards, or even drops when a single comment gets magnified afterwards. It's not the College Bowl, it's presidential politics.

Never admitting wrong doing. OBLITERATE Iran? Holliday gas tax? Bosnia? Sounds like someone thats already in the white house.

Bush.Clinton.McCain. = Same old Washington lies and brain wash.

Sad part about it, is that people are ignorant, impressionable and gullible enough to buy into these attacks… as evidenced by the people jumping ship from Obama to Hillary in the last 4 weeks at the drop of a hat. I believe a lot of those folks were just looking for a reason to not support Obama anyway.

People have GOT to know that there is a bigger picture than an "attack ad" designed to put one person down while building up another.

We have a rough time getting roads and bridges repair now. If this gas tax holiday will take from that then everyone will have torn up cars, trucks, and SUV's. Bush is not worried about high gas taxes and neither is McCain. They both have the better plan for gas tax holiday. Say to the People Hillary that you will get them a gas tax holiday while I use my wife's corparate jet to campaign and George will use is private jet to go to campaign David or Texas. Remember Hillary you and the rest of the folks already pay for my gas so why stop now.

Think about it people who are voting for Hillary.

Obama 08

Hillary is losing supers left and right. Barack can give her 55% of the remaining primaries and it wouldn't make any difference. It's time to stop moving the finish line and euthanize Eight Belle's campaign.

That's just sad that people will actually fall for that. Her plan will in fact worsen the situation. She is indeed better with the less educated and she plays it that way. Let's lift the poor with better judgment.

No to quick fix, Yes to long term solutions for America

You all are really going to let her and her husband back in the white house, aren't you?? Those two people ruined the election of Al Gore. If Al Gore had been president , we wouldn't even BE in Iraq and now you all want that crap all over again. America gets EXACTLY what it deserves by voting for Hillary. Her and Bill are LIARS LIARS LIARS. You all get her on the ticket in Nov, my usual democratic vote will go to John McCain.

Hillary thinks people are stupid so they would fall for the McClinton gas tax vacation nonsense! Voters in Indiana and NC should prove to everyone that we are not dumb!

there she goes again. she is more tricky than she is smart……..it's up to us my fellow american voters to be smarter than her by not letting her tricks make us look like idiots

I can't believe I used to be a fan of Hillary — I've really grown to despise her.

If the economist had all the solutions……..would we be in this mess in the first place?

Obama has no ideas of his own he just tweaks someone else's and calls them his. That why he can never go into detail about what kind of changes he's going to make because he doesn't know.

Hoosiers for Hillary Clinton!!!!!

Hillary supporters take your $28-$30 savings from her ill advised plan and go buy a brain. It is proven that her support base is not the brightest of people.

The chairman and vice-chairman of the Maryland Democratic Party are throwing their support behind Sen. Barack Obama on the eve of Tuesday's primaries in Indiana and North Carolina, giving the Illinois senator at least two additional superdelegates.

Three years ago, during an appearance on CBS, Sen. Hillary Clinton stated that she agreed with the overarching premise of John McCain's Iraq policy: that America's commitment to the war shouldn't be based on time frames but rather on the level of troop casualties. She even cited, as McCain now regularly does, that the United States would be well suited to follow a model for troop presence based on South Korea, Japan, or Germany.

CNN – I am so dissapointed in your slanted news – did you and ABC merge into 1 network dedicated to Clinton? Why not report that virtually all economists agree that this proposal is ludicrous – oh, I forgot, that would not serve the Clintons. I suspect that CNN/ABC wants another Clinton in office – look how much negative news they created the last time and you guys had a blast with it.

Nightmare: Hillary as president.

Explain to me how this is negative. As far as I remember, this is a orimary campaign not an Obama-media love fest…

Obama told the truth this mornng on Good Morning America. The fact is this tax cut on oil is deceiving. The savings comes to about 23 cents a gallon. The saving would be about $28.00. Hillary get a grip. McCaine is featuring the same ploy. Food on the table is going to be a problem in a few days. This is just a last ditch effort to gain votes. Do you honestly believe that the Major Oil Companies are going for this and Mr. Bush himself is not at all pleased with this either.

Obama voted for the Bush/Cheney energy bill. We're going to trust HIM with gas price solutions? He's nothing but a typical politician. Actually, he's worse. He's a novice typical politician with no guts.

I am so ashamed how this democratic campaign is evolving.
I guess people get the leader they deserve. If they want a ruthless
calculating dishonest nominee who rather destroys the chances of the Democratic party to win in November, then they should have it, they don’t deserve better. There will be a status quo, politics as usual and the Americans will be in more desperate position then they are now.
I am also surprised that nobody ever talks about the Clinton Dynasty being undemocratic. Nobody is bothered by the fact that they using their political position to gain wealth. Ironically, she is the “girl who understand ordinary people”, while Obama who was really poor is now elitist. How far can you spin the truth??? And this is just the beginning….

Several months ago I though in November I will vote for whoever is the Democratic nominee. Now? There is no chance I will ever vote for Hillary. Obliterate Iran????. It sounds like an excerpt right from Borat's Rodeo speach. So there is no difference between 100-year wars McCain and a person, who likes to dring the blood of everybody. The fact that Obama is attacked for what others said or done, shows they don't have anything serious against him.

Thank you Hillary.
This is a great litmus test for the American public. If enough people fall for this pretend legislation that you've created, it proves it doesn't really matter who the president is. Our country will obviously be going down the toilet aboard the high boat of ignorance!

It took Obama 20 years to finally say, " Pastor I dennounce all that you say." 20 years to make a decision. When we are dealing with a decision on who just bombed us and what to, we can't wait 20 years.
Hillary will know what to do when that phone rings.

there she goes again……she more tricky than she is smart…….it's up to us my fellow americans to be smarter than her and let her her tricks make us like idiots.

Senator Clinton was a Republican before she met Bill. I agree, the more she talks the more she acts like a Republican.

He does have a plan. I think Hillary's is a last minute ploy to get votes. She has proven once again that she will do anything to get elected.

Please Indiana, send a message that the status quo is not acceptable. Please Send Barack Obama to the White House!

Hopefully Indiana and N.Carolina will see the truth about this empty suit and speak loudly like Ohio, Texas, and Pennsylvania did.

HILLARY IS THE ONLY CHOICE NOW. WE WANT A FIGHTER THAT WILL IMPROVE OUR ECONOMY.

I really like Obama as a person and as a senator. In a perfect world he would be a great president. In todays world we need a leader who will go toe to toe with the Republicans. Hillary Clinton is the person capable of fighting the political war at home, And the war on terror abroad. What will Obama do when the consevatives try to push their agenda down our throats? What about the supreme court? We need an iron fist in the white house. Hillary 08

Hi Hillary,

I spent your fantasy $30. holiday savings as well, on driving to the gas station in one week. Oh well, there goes my summer vacation.

Maybe I can cut out pictures of the places your husband visited to hustle his NAFTA deals.

You're slime Hillary, and everyone knows it.

Obama 08

I haven't been a Clinton fan ever, but I sure am a Hillary fan now. I AM SCARED OF THAT GUY OBAMA. Oh, God, help us if we get him as a President. We will be doomed, in more ways than one.

Of course she's gone negative. It's all she's been about since her bubble was burst after more Amercians decided they didn't care for her or her politics and Obama won the show. She is a small, vindictave, petty, egomaniac who if illegitimtely elected shall represent nothing more than a continuation of the status quo.

It absolutely breaks my heart that she's rising in the polls in Indiana. Why do Americans consistently reward the politician who behaves the worst?

No wonder Washington doesn't work.

We consistently pick the meanest, most self-obsessed people to go 'make their place in history' while things go to rot for the rest of us.

Indiana – please! Don't reward Hillary for playing the dirtiest.

If she gets the nomination I swear on my two childrens life I will stay home in November.

Dean, you really need to put your foot down regarding this lady's dirtiness. She is saying anything to turn people against Obama just so that she can say he's unelectable. This is going to split the democratic supporters in half come November, 1/2 at home on the couch and 1/2 voting for McBush.

ah, the "conciliatory" vixen strikes again . . .

If the people of Indiana believe this hype and pandering from Clinton, then God help us. Be wise, Indiana, and send her home before she totally disenegrates the Democratic party

I haven't been a Clinton fan ever, but I sure am a Hillary fan now. I AM SCARED OF THAT GUY OBAMA. Oh, God, help us if we get him as a President. We will be doomed, in more ways than one.

For those who claim a lack of ideas by Obama, the idea is a movement. A movement for CHANGE, for unity, for pride in our country. He has plans all over his website, please read them if you want one, but they aren't the point. The point is that America is controlled by the wealthy few (Clintons earning > $100 million since Bill left office) with disregard for the working many. It is funny that Clinton is the one running on the experience platform but Obama is the one who HAS experience voting FOR a gas-tax holiday and KNOWING that they DO NOT work. It is also funny that Clinton won't listen to the economists, I ask, will she listen to her military strategists when they tell her that we should NOT attack Iran and she does so anyway? She reminds me of Bush and that is scary.

I think that voters are educated enough to realize that Hillary is doing whatever it takes to try to and secure a nomination that is really too far out of her reach. Hopefully, the voters in IN and NC along with the superdelegates will see through her and seal the deal for Obama. I truly believe people are tired of Hillary's negativity and the same old politics. We need a fresh start! Lets remind Hillary that we appreciate her years in Washington but that does not equal entitlement to the nomination!

The Clinton's will say and do anything, I do mean ANYTHING!!!!

CHECK OUT THE UTUBE VIDEO
Paul vs Clinton

in spite of the numerous request Paul vs Clinton (UTube) has received no media coverage. WHY?

Obama is no longer a viable candidate!

Hillary will win in November!

She is proving already how we are going to have years of Peace, Prosperity and a balanced budget!

Hillary 08

She is funny. She is really out to get the nomination, no matter what. Sad.. IN do not be fooled.. We want unity around the world.

What happened to Hillary Rodam Clinton, she used to be a Democrat!?

He attacks the GAS TAX RELIEF but he want to give the TEAMSTERS ( who stole my fathers pension ) a free ride according to the WALL STREET JOURNAL "
a Wall Street Journal report from TODAY says Obama won the endorsement of the Teamsters after privately telling them he backed an end to special federal oversight set up to eliminate the influence of organized crime in the union."
WOW the people really need that !!
Don't you wonder how many other back door deals he has made ??
and what other part of this country he has sold out?? think people think WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO OBAMA ?? or are we really just getting to know him

Its sad that in this day and time that there are still so many ignorant naive people in this country. Everyone is making this about religion or a pastor instead of focusing on the issues that really matter. Truth be told most
Americans don't even practice religion on a regular basis. I bet half the people that are making this Rev Wright topic so popular rarely if ever even go to church. Me myself can careless about an organized religion. I care about which candidate will change America for the better. Rev Wright has some strong view and so do most Americans so let that ignorance go and lets get Senator Obama elected he is the best Candidate for the job.

What's happened to Obama? Integrity, Intelligence and foresight.

Obama 08!

Open your eyes people! Obama is just another politician, but less experienced. Who want to wait few more years in this economic disaster before he gets some good ideas in his head. So far he is good speech reader, that's it!

Get over the 'he does not have a plan! why did he offer no plan?' nonsense. It is a big structural problem that the government bureaucrats and politicians *cannot* fix. There is nothing they can do to force lower gas prices in the short term. The only thing they can do is to set the stage for the economy to handle the problem over the long term by producing more efficient technology and alternatives.

In that sort of crisis-of-the-week, of course he doesn't propose some short-term gimmick to make it look like he has the answers. There are no such immediate answers to be had. And by not playing the politics of pretending he has such answers, the politicians who do play those games get an opening to accuse him of not having a plan. And the millions of people who already decided they don't like him for whatever reason all gleefully chime in about him not having a plan or following in their footsteps instead of being a leader. Very bogus.

As for his long term plans, he definitely has those. He just doesn't talk about the details of them when speaking publicly. The information is published on his website. Of course, you have to be smart and motivated enough to go read it that way, rather than having it spoon fed by the media who are covering the political speeches of the day…

Hillary's gas tax holiday is a bunch of crap. My husband owns his own truck and he says the gas tax holiday will kill truck drivers. He wants the roads and bridges to be safe while they are carrying around a total gross weight of 80,000 lbs. Hillary need to drop out of this race and focus on the needs of the New York voters that she have failed. Hillary knows that Americans are dumb, stupid and easily forgets, she is playing all of you and you are to blind to see through it. You'll see once she has you jobless and homeless, and she won't even bat an eye, ask the people in New York. She hasn't even batted and eye to them, but continues LYING across the United States. I've been voting since 1977 and I voted for Bill twice. The Clintons have had their chance, it's time for them to move on and to take their garbage with them.

I was waiting for the other shoe to drop, just late enough…..
Carl Rove is alive and well and running Clinton's campaign?

Baaa, baaa, baaaaaaaaaa….

(I apologize to the rest of you. I'm just trying to speak to Hillary supporters in their own language.)

@ALEX SMITH

Just because the 18 cents comes off at the pump – there is no mechanism in place to stop the oil companies from rising the cost back to the original amount and keeping the profits. She proposes making the oil company pay the 18 cents — and they are not obligated to reduce the price at the pump. Get it??!!?? Then, when the add the tax back-in after the Labor Day Holiday — you will be paying 4.50-4.75 a gallon … you'll love that right???

All this "something is better than nothing" from HRC supporters is a joke.

If you ask for grape juice and I hand you purple "kool-aid", are you going to drink it?

if so, FOLLOW ME, I can bring you salvation.

THAT WAY BILL WILL HAVE SOMETHING TO DO IN THE WHITE HOUSE

I hear alot about Hillary's pandering. What, if not pandering, are generalized speeches about "hope" and "change?" The Republicans say the same thing when they are out of office. No one runs on "hopelessness" and "status quo."

Hillary is scraping bottom with her negative adds…she just need to give up..she will lose anyway

Robbing Peter to pay Paul, that's what this gas tax shell game is all about. If these lunatics suspend the tax and then tax the oil companies, the oil companies will simply send their cost increases on to the consumers anyway. It's a sham either way and it isn't about helping anyone except helping these mindless liberals buy votes to get into power.
If it wasn't so tragic it would be funny.

Okay Clinton supporters, you scream about experience all the time. Obama has been through this exact same situation in Chicago. He learned from his mistakes and realized that this gimmick isn't going to work. It's through Obama's experience is the reason why he is trying to tell Clinton that it's a bad move. WAKE UP HILIARY !!

Gas tax holiday was tried in the 90's by the Clinton admin. when it was $1.25 and did not work, we are now paying almost $4.00 a gallon now. So why will Hillary think it will work now.

Why won't Obama support the gas tax holiday today when he did support one in Illinois in 2000? Is it because he didn't propose it first? Or is it because it was more important in 2000 before he started making millions each year from his books.

And talk about scare tactics, now if there is a gas tax holiday, it will eliminate all the road construction jobs????

Clinton and McCain are both wrong about the gas tax holiday, it is about as stupid a ploy as anyone could come up with. I do not like Obama but in this case he is correct. If you do away with the gas tax to save a few pennies then you can expect the highways to just get into worse condition and that will cost you more in operating expenses on your vehicles than the little bit of money saved on the gas tax. Think about it!!

She makes me sick!!!! OBAMA 08′

What happened Sen Obama cannot take the heat? he must definatley be out of touch. Or then again what kind of hope was he talking about? oh yes the kind of Rev Right!!!

Well said Sen Hillary!!!!

She is basically calling the voters on Indiana and NC stupid and they cheer her on like a rock star!
How sad! Please Indiana please show your fellow Americans that you are not so stupid as she thinks you are!

PT Barnum had a saying for all those that buy into the Hillary gas tax holiday, "There's a sucker born every minute". And Hillary is counting on a lot of suckers to vote for her on Tuesday.

This is sad! However, if people are stupid enough to believe that your gas will go down because Hillary saids it will then………I got a river in the desert ready to sell you!
Get real folks they (the established Washington politicians)lie to us every 4 years and nothing changes.

Hillary and John McCain talk to the voters as if their in grade school. Barack talks to us as adults. There really is a big difference. Hillary/McCain don't respect the voters and just feed lines that they don't even beleive.

Barack wants to change the country; he's a man with a mission and I'm onboard.

Obama 08

November is going to be so exciting, I can't wait. McCain and the GOP don't have the people on their side.

Please, My fellow American's let not be deceived by McClintons political tactics. Justice is blind but your eyes would have to be glazed over if you can't see through Senater Clintons tactics. Big oil companies will just cancel out the holiday tax by raising the price of gas at the pumps. Then when the tax is added back on gas will be twice as high, come on folks let not be decieved! Obama is right on target. McClinton is hurting the democartic party.

Steven,

Kentucky

lyn-nj… The reason he is against it now is because it did not work when he voted for it in IL. So why vote for something again when you know what the outcome will be. It doesnt make sense. He is trying to tell her what will happen because he has been there and done that.

until now i had no idea who to vote for: Clinton or Obama. But thanks Hillary for helping me make up my mind. What did it? the word 'obliterate' (referring to Iran) and the stupendously idiotic idea of the gas tax. She'll say anything to get more vote. She is calculating and I for one, do not trust her anymore.

Hillary's latest move fits into the smart politics, stupid policy category.

A gas-tax holiday will: 1) not have a real impact on prices 2) take away much needed tax revenue to fund transportation improvements/enhancements, which generates a lot of economic activity.

Once again, I'm disappointed in Hillary's tactics, but not surprised. She is manipulating the American public.

By the way, Obama does have a plan on this issue… and that's to focus on giving Americans a tax break of some $1,000 per family, which is leaps and bounds ahead of the $30-40 one might save at the pumps with a gas-tax break, which won't lower prices in the long run anyway. Obama's move is to help American families offset gasoline costs, food costs and more with a larger tax break.

Hillary will do anything to win, and once again she's tearing down her presidential rival. I thought they were on the same team, but hey… this is her style. She couldn't move healthcare along years ago because she refused to work with all of the various interests and parties. She couldn't bridge the differences. She's polarizing. I don't care how well she can articulate the issues, she can't bring people together to solve tough issues… and that's what we need most in the next president.

For the undecideds tomorrow, please, please, please… rethink any support for Hillary. She is more of the same politics we've always known. Same politics, same results. Dare for difference and let's make a real difference in this country.

Stick with the facts my good people… He is still being endorsed by super delegates (Free). It is what it is. Obama will be the nominee wounded and damaged however, when he does shake this HRC off he is going to blow the "not strong on economy" McCain out the water.

OBAMA 08!

WE CAN ALL TELL HILLARY WHAT HAPPEN TO OBAMA .

HE IS WINING.

AND WE CAN TELL HER WHAT HAPPEN TO HILLIE.

SHE IS LOSING.

If I wanted a fighter, I'd vote for Floyd Mayweather. But I want someone who can lead this country, so I'm voting for Obama. Clinton sounds too much like Bush and McCain. There does not seem to much of a compromiser or negotiator in her. Her negative posture is evidence of someone incapable of making conciliations in the real world.

Someone on here asked why Hillary and the Republicans get the uneducated voters. Think about your comment for just a while.

To some people, the gas tax holiday will help them save a few dollars. And for those people, those few dollars will mean something. Sounds pretty elitist for those obama-folks who disregard that reality. And at least Hillary is trying to do something positive. Ive yet to see any solutions from Obama ….. hmmmm .. funny, how that seems to be a common theme in everything that Obama talks about.

I've responded to this question about the plan on other sites.
My question is- when did Americans stop wanting a price break?
We use coupon, go to restaurants offering 2 for one specials and flock to stores the day after Christmas.
Hillary has said this is avery short term relief to help during the summer driving season. 18.5 cents is a lttle more 5% of the current price at 3.65.
Since congress would have to approve this and that would also mean taxing the oil companies for the lost revenue, Why is this a bad thing?
Gimmick? maybe. But so isw every sales , special and ad we see everyday.
You want to hear another a gimmick- how about " Yes We Can"- Yes we can what????? Where's his short term plan? They both have long term agendas. And by the way- be sure to send back that check from Bush- its a gimmick as well- one with no basis or way of recouping its funding.

Unfortunately the people that are fooled by Hillary's scam aren't the same people that come onto sites like this. If they did they'd no better.

HILLARY IS SMARTER THEN ALL ECONOMISTS. OH MY AN EXPERT IN EVERYTHING. WHO NEEDS A STAFF OR ADVISORS. SHE'LL JUST DICTATE. LONG LIVE THE NEW DICTATOR.

I have never seen anybody so negative in my life. It looks like if she wants something badly she will do anything to get it? Does she have any value left in her? Obama has to run an ad, where were you when your pastor was molesting little girls? Did not she say she will walk out if her pastor is not doing the right thing? Is it just a talk? Well media is giving her free ride what can we say?

While Hillary is trying to figure out how a coffee machine and a gas pump work, it seems hubby is up to his old tricks:

http://www.slate.com/id/2190632/

First, they did the kitchen sink, and her supporters liked those tactics.

Then, they did the Tanya Harding attempt to knee-cap Barack, and her supporters liked that too.

And Finally, she's going "nuclear," and I guess her supporters like that also. Why not? After she "obliterates" Iran, she can do the same to our party and our country.

I really don't get how anyone can like her pandering and win-at-all-costs tactics.

If the DNC steals the nomination from Hillary (ahead of popular votes),she should run as Independent and forget about this party that is being so stupid lately. I'm 100% sure she will win the general election if she runs as an Independent. The Obamaidiotas will regret supporting Obama.

Hillary….such a "Pander Bear"!

I sincerely hope that the voters in Indiana & North Caroline are hearing more than we here in Oregon are about why Judge Aurelio Munoz ruled on April 25 that Hillary Clinton would not be required to testify in a sworn deposition as a material witness in Bill’s civil fraud case until AFTER the November election.

CNN – where's THAT story? Come on, I trust you to give fair and equal coverage. This story should really be up there above the obnoxious Reverend. It's about Hillary's illegal campaign funds.

November will come quickly. Can we, as a Nation, afford another Presidential scandal right now?!

A VOTE TO CLINTON IS A VOTE FOR BUSH.

They (and I include MSM) cynically think Americans are too dumb to not pull a fast one on you.

NC and IN, please show America that you are smarter than they think!

WHO IS PAYING FOR THE AD????????

OBAMA is going bye bye in North Carolina

LET ME TELL WARHILLIE.

HE IS BECOMING PRESIDENT OF USA.

Once again, how is this NEGATIVE? He has been negative all weekend with Hillary because she's proposed this but yet no one says he's negative. This is getting ridiculous! The ad simply points out that Obama does not have a plan….which he DOES NOT!

Clinton has no shame and no honor.
Sorry….just too much like Bush and Cheney
in too many ways.

Yet another Clinton lie. Obama happens to have a very good energy plan. He refuses, however, to jump on McCain's pander wagon.

It seems like Hillary is having a last minute temper tantrum. someone should lock her in the closet.

That Pastor Wright story is old news. Time to move on. We are sick of hearing about it and it really doesn't help me pay my bills nor get us out of Iraq. Time to stick to the REAL issues. I am not voting for Pastor Wright. That negative stuff doesn't help me at all.

All these HRC supporters keep saying Obama is for the oil companies because he doesn't support the gas tax holiday…. A "tax holiday" will take the money from America.. not the oil companies!

Oil companies will get the same amount of money under HRC's plan and will actually charge more, once consumption goes up.

Watch the news every once in a while rather than "The Simpsons" reruns.

Hillary Clinton is George Bush in a dress.

Wednesday we'll be saying "What happened to Hillary Clinton?"

Please read and leave your comment, I promise to read it!
We need real change in the criteria for "voting" in any election for the presidency". Here is my proposal, and I await your comments:

Only people with at least an AA degree from a community college should vote for the nominee. That is, we need only those who are "informed" about policy issues to vote.

We expect our president to be brilliant and learned, so should the voters.

This ad is aimed at the blue collar workers. Pathetic! Wake up America! Does HONESTY still count in America?

I honestly can't understand why ANYONE would support Clinton over Obama unless they were completely unfamiliar with her record.

I mean, it doesn't matter anymore because the nomination is his, but it still baffles me. Why anyone would want to go back to Clinton era lies and criminal behavior is beyond me.

They are nasty, nasty people. Does no one remember?

Obama supported this very tax proposal once when it was his idea, now he's dropped it like a hot potato, just as he dropped his Pastor when he became a political liability. That's a man who stands behind his personal convicitons—NOT!!

I'll tell you what happened. He won the delegate count, popular vote,
and number of states. I'm now going to turn off all of the "NEWS"
channels until Wednesday morning, then turn on C-SPAN to get the
real truth.

Obama 08.

i wish there was a way to make the clintonm supporters understand how bad thios woman really is.
but the truth is they are too uneducated to know
pity

OBAMA IS A WEAK CANDIDATE…….

Is this the first time Slick Willie was in that part of NC? I would go see a former president myself, but I will not vote for another Clinton. America, we cannot afford her and all of Wall Sreet. And I hope Indiana and North Carolina all realize who will be in the white house if they select another Clinton. It will not be the voters. I would love to see a female in the white house, the men have made a mess out of our country, but not this female. Go Obama!!!!!!

That's funny, two stories down from this on the ticker says Hillary is taking a more concilliatory tone today. Nothing new from this psycho who changes personality every hour.

She really has poor judgement.

BUSH, CLINTON, CLINTON, BUSH, BUSH, (CLINTON???)

Why do we vote in aristocracies? How can the American Public be such suckers?

Vote Different Tomorrow. Vote Smart for a change.

Do Indiana voters realize Hillary voted no on the following 2006 bill?

'To prohibit the confiscation of a firearm during an emergency or major disaster if the possession of such firearm is not prohibited under Federal or State law.'

http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=109&session=2&vote=00202

Billary Clinton is a member of the Elite, her goal is to GET another republican in office, why do you think she's still in the race?! She's not there for the people, she's not even there for the people of New York. She uses scare tactics and to be honest it would take Barak Obama the human being to unite this country, not the politician.

What happens after demand and prices keep going up? What happen when the "holiday" is over? The taxes are put back in place and in one day our fuel cost jump 18 cents per gallon. We complain about a rise of 2 cents now. Great idea hillary. No matter what people say, you are right.

What about a blog that reads: "Obama reduces Clinton's lead in superdelegates from 23 to 14 in the Past Week"…Why hasn't Clinton managed to close the deal with Superdelegates???

"Siding with the oil companies"…please, what a cheap and desperate lie to the american people!

Nader looking better and better every day!

rodger

obama don't know what a kitchen sink is. he has a wife who takes care of him. unlike bill who had to turn to another woman because he is married to some one who acts like a man or a lunitic
so get over it

this will be the 4th endorsement for barack today

cnn do as you may about posting this

Same old politics! She has no regard for the unity of our country, she's just worried about herself. Hill-Billy!!!
Obama 08′

I was really hopeful about this election and then Hillary went dirty. For the first time in history a black man and a white woman are running for president and then Hillary got negative, Bill got racist and now Obama's giving up. I feel like the next commercial Clinton will come about with will be one that's more to the point. "Barack Obama is half black. Do you really want some one half black as president? His name doesn't even "sound' American." It's just that petty. I'm very disapointed in the entire thing. I'm very disapointed in the American people. Shame on all of you.

Mike May 5th, 2008 2:16 pm ET

I wonder how many times Obama had to tell his kids not to repeat his pastor's cuss words and derogatory words?

Hey Mike, my guess is Clinton kept Chelsea away from the famous Pastor Perv, who lead her congregation.

He does even have an add..He is little behind the times now..

HE WON"T SIT WITH BILL O REILLEY, but will sit with TERROSIT LEADERS???HHAHHAHHHAHHAH YEAH RIGHT..

Obama is DONE!! AP REport

Fight HIllary Fight!!

yet when asked Hillary couldn't name a single economist who supports her plan, and said she doesn't care about the opinion of economists!!

Doesn't it say something that Hillary and McCain have the same plan that economists have BOTH denounced!?

The headline should read that Hillary STAYS negative.

Anyone with half a brain cell should realize that suspending the gas tax won't do a bit of good for the average American. The suspension of the tax only gives the green light to oil and gas companies to raise their prices. Obama's solution goes to the root of the problem, the oil and gas companies themselves by taxing windfall profits.
Be smart America! Vote for Barack Obama! He is above all the gimmicks and looks for real permanent solutions instead of cheap quick fixes!
Obama '08!

What happens to Barrack?
Ms Clinton bought a lot of (not very smart) people for 30 cents a day !!!
I know everything has his price, but you guys are really for sale!!!!!!!!!!!
All the best tomorrow for Obama! He is the only one who can restore Americas lousi reputation around the world….
BTW dit he not get another superdelegate today???? CNN – please tell me….

Don't fall for Clinton's blatant lies Indiana. Barack DOES have a plan to decrease demand by investing in alternative energy and bio-fuel.

Clinton and her pack of lies show just how desperate she is. It's over Clinton is too far behind.

Susan Mo – who are you? you keep changing your tune all the time!!!

Clinton's plan is plainly pandering for votes and those who support her plan is as stupid as those who vote for Bush twice.

It is that simple folks, this woman is poisonous and after receiving the votes of those stupid people; she leaves them standing in the dust.

When Sen Obama was an Illinois senator, he voted for exactly the same measure Sen. Clinton is presently advocating..

Sen. Obama 180 degrees switch shows, beyond any reasonable doubt , that HE THINKS AND ACTS LIKE ANY OTHER POLITICIAN.

Being an ""AGENT OF CHANGE"" is nothing, but a FAIRY TALE good only for the ""NOBAMAnites"" of this world!!!!

When congress, ECONOMISTS ! ! ! and other politicians say that the gas tax break will actually hurt us, maybe WE SHOULD LISTEN ! ! !

Hillary is bad for the country no matter how you look at her. I honestly can't believe anything she says. This tax break on gas is such a political move. She doesn't care about any of us. She just wants to close the margin between Obama and her and in doing so small minded people fall for her gimmicks (Ohio, Texas, PA). This is a person who strongly fought for NAFTA and now for political reasons she says she's always been against it and some people actually buy it. Maybe that's why nothing improves as time goes on.

GIVE ME A BREAK ! ! OBAMA '08

I have only bad things to say about Hillary. This is just so appalling and disgusting. Politics are awful and I hope she goes away… I don't want her helping Obama campaign at all when he is the nominee.

I think she should go join McCain and Rove since she seems to understand how they campaign.

Upset American hoping we can get behind Obama soon.

It seriously looks like all those morons who came out in droves of hypnotized sheep and voted for Bush 4 and 8 years ago are feeling so ashamed, guilty and somewhat responsible for the horrible state that our union is in that they have to somehow make up for it now by switching sides and voting Democrat. But the only problem is, they’re still STUPID! They’re falling for the same political gimmicks, lies, and tactics that bush used, and they’re supporting Hillary. Please, please, please if you voted for bush just please stay out of this election. You’re not capable, nor do you have the mental capacity to make a wise or informative decision. If you did you would be supporting Obama.

Eric Obama can't close the deal because of Hillary and her watch dogs like Carville and Suckface squealing and dealing. Hillary campaign and watch dogs knows all the dirty tricks to keep her alive.

If Obama sneeze hard then it will be bad for him so that is why he just campaign and campaign and forget the negative stuff. As for Hillary she have lived in every state and has men who will back her in any situation and help her tell lies.

Obama don't have that pleasure. So when Obama gets a win then it's a win by any means, no trick or low down dirty tactics. I wish we could do more to put Hillary under but her watch dogs are bitting the hllllllll out of us.

One day soon we will fine a way to put that mutt to sleeep and maybe Hillary want be able to bite us anymore.

Obama 08

Someone mentioned the Ten Commandments. I can think of 3 just off of the top of my head that the Clinton's have commited. Lie, steal and adultry. Jennifer Flowers was Bill Clinton's mistress for 16 years. Now you can't tell me Hillary didn't know anything about this in 16 years. If she didn't then she has no business running this country and if she did, she has no business running this country.

She's RIGHT. Obama has not plans only catchy phrases.

I think what Hillary is showing is leadership. . . . and showing also that she is not afraid to face down the oil companies which is more than Obama is doing. Sorry I am wrong, he is also pandering by talking about another tax rebate . . . I guess because this one is doing so much good!!??? Listen this is what politicians do . . . tell the public things like I'll cut your taxes or I'll bring jobs to your community.

GO HILLARY 08

If we tax the profits for the Oil Companies, they are going to raise prices or stop R&D into alternative fuels. Sorry but I don't think Senator Clinton's plan is going to help our the average American taxpayer.

Hillary has really gone off the deep end!
It's not just Obama who doesn't believe in her gas tax.

IT is every economist in the US except one guy who works for Shell Oil!

Can't she see this is a stupid plan that will hurt Americans and give money to the Middle East?

She thinks we are stupid. I used to really like her, but she broke my heart and turned into a republican. Please women of Indiana and North Carolina vote Obama!

I can't wait to save the whole $30.00 for gas taxes this summer. While Exxon racks up $11,700,000,000.00 quarterly profits, another record.

Supporters of this tax holiday are idiots and Hilary is pandering for these idiots votes. Exxon will not let us see a drop in gas prices.

Windfall Profit Tax yes.

who is playing on fear now? Obama et al. when saying we can't afford 4 more years of Bush….Obama et al. when pointing to the Minnesota bridge collapse and loss of jobs for a reason not to support gas tax relief…don't forget that high priority road repairs are probably already budgetted/funded…and if they're not, it's not because of a lack of funds….Hope is fundamentally based on fear…the fear of the status quo…his ad against clinton's gas tax relief is extremely negative: "more low-road tactics", "gimmick", etc…you can criticize an opponent's ideas without resorting to such childish terms

Thats how you do it Hill…keep right on shoving negativity to an electorate thats tired of it!

IT IS UNBELIEVABLE WHAT SOME FOLKS IN THE MEDIA ARE DOING BECAUSE OF MONEY AND SURPORTING ALL THESE LIES AND CHEAT FROM CLINTONS. THE FIRE THAT YOU GUYS ARE KINDLING WILL DEFINATELY REACH EVERY BODY, CAN YOU TELL ME WHY 60 % OF THIS COUNTRY DONT WANT THE CLINTONS AGAIN ? DO YOU THINK THEY ARE WRONG ?

man…Hillary is a feisty one! Too bad Obama will still win in the end….

According to economists (experts on the economy), a gas tax "holiday" is not the answer. First off, we can not afford to allow our roads to fall into disrepair, which would be the direct result of repealing the gas tax temporarily. An alternative would be to borrow the money, which is yet another increase in our nation's public debt. We should be demanding that our representatives practice fiscal responsibility, not the lack of responsibility which now plagues Washington. Two more likely byproducts of a gas tax holiday would be higher overall consumption, which would result in higher prices, and oil companies artificially raising the price of gas since they realize the price consumers are already willing to pay (this has happened before…)

Using fuel more responsibly (conserving fuel), would reduce demand, which would then reduce the price of gas. Our candidates should be calling on Americans to do this first, then introduce alternative measures, such as increasing supply (drilling untapped oil fields but with responsible environmental constraints).

Look at Hillary's comments in the last few days, she wants to get out of Iraq, but she wants to pick a "WAR" with IRAN. So is it bring troops home or just find a BETTER ENEMY, what is it going to be? Even she does not know, and she is talking out both sides of her face.

Yeah, way to go Hillary. Do all you can but you will not win. The longer this race goes on the more you disgust me. And people who are still talking about Rev Wright…Let Go and Let God. Be like Christ and forgive and forget. One sin is not better than the other. Let it go and FORGIVE.

What part of "This is bad for the country and the people" doesn't Hillary understand? Nobody with experience, or a brain, supports this stupid idea!

Hopefully, she will take a hit for forcing this poorly thought up plan on us. if people don't see through this gimmick, then people aren't ignorant or uneducated… they are mentally handicapped!

Hillary went negative? Let me try to pretend I'm shocked. Nope, can't do it.

WHO IN THE hell cares what she puts out. she is a lieing b- and cnn finally put someone on air that tell it like she is. my berstein. he has her down pat. she is a lieing witch and will looose

cnn don't worry bout not posting this i don't expect you to any way

Hillary doesn't care what economists say when it comes to the gas tax. She doesn't care what generals say when it comes to troop withdrawl from Iraq. She feels that she will single-handedly hold the power to order the obliteration of Iran if she is president. Pledged delegates can change their votes. Super-delegates can over-turn the primary results. What world is this woman living in? It's like she is the Bizarro candidate and has flipped all the rules.

"Where are we?", she asked. The thin, tall man holding the paper in his hand said wearily, "Doesn't matter. Just read the script" Her eyes had a glazed look, and she felt a tantrum beginning to boil up inside her. "But I need to know who I'm talking to", she pleaded." It doesn't matter", he said again, wishing he was somewhere else, any where else. He hated when she got whiny. It was so much like fingernails being dragged across a chalkboard." Anything and everything anybody could want was in the script. All she had to do was read the words. People would eat it up like hungry kids eating cookies. She knew it was all smoke and mirrors. Why did she act like she cared? Probably the sleep deprivation, he thought. Well, it was almost over, thank God. He felt a sudden urge to take a long, hot, shower. I sure hope she paid the hotel bills this time.
he hated having the maid pound on the door, telling him to leave.

I,m happy to see that the two superdelegates that he picked up today
don't have a problem with him.

Yes We Can
Obama 08.

Thank God, there are more educated people in Indiana and North Carolina than in PA and Ohio, whom Clinton was able to deceive. Indiana and North Carolina, please close this game and lets go home. America is now divided because of Clinton. (Read the news here http://www.fairmediablog.com)

Will the real Hillary Clinton please stand up? Who is this woman? A 90's has been who wants to make history while using her husbands coat tails.

Bill Clinton on Gas Taxes: He Raised 'Em in '93, then Opposed a "Vacation" in 2000

http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2008/05/bill-clinton-on.html

Obama needs to go back and sit on that pew for another 20 years…
…no CHANGE offered…………

VOTE HILLARY….VOTE EXPERIENCE…..NOW……this is not a
rehearsal……….HILLARY

Okay, folks! It was NOT Hillary's plan…McCain was the one who originally proposed it. People need to stop and think that WHOEVER gets elected as president, this country is in serious trouble! None of the candidates is a good one!

Way to appeal to the most ignorant portion of our population. She disgusts me.

Judgment of 20 years failed ?
Go Hillary
Yes you can
Hillary 08

I am STILL trying to figure out how she sleeps at night knowing full well that her vote FOR the war cost thousands of lives and millions of dollars. I would LOVE to see a woman for president.. just not this woman. I wonder if she gets nightmares?

Clinton disgusts me

Don't believe Mrs. Clinton!!! her Gas tax adviser is a lobbiest for Shell oil…
She is a pathetic liar.
Mrs Clinton is a Liar… i don't like Liars, i Don't Trust Liars, Liars are the worst kind a people..
anyone who believes in Clinton better look in the mirror.
The may not like what they see

Beware of a "great speaker", who can TRY to influence his gains through sly words. OUT with OBAMA ! He comes from a RACIST congregation & has the tempting words of Satan!
Notice how all his words come from a resource, an economist, a preacher, lobbyists, etc. He shows lack of responsibilites at this point to solve a nations problems. I sure dont want a President who looks for all solutions from "the other guy" !!!!
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK FOR THE PEOPLE HILLARY!!

This is news? Doesn't she always go negative, especially at the last minute?

Remember when she tried crying at the last minute? Then her husband had a tantrum at the last minute? Then he tried getting racist at the last minute? All their really effective measures are done at the last minute, always with the intent to deceive. THAT part is not news.

The news is that people in this country are naive enough to buy into her crap. Or may that isn't news. GWB was elected by a stupid bunch of people and it could happen again. There's a reason why people with college degrees favor Obama.

Get a clue people. She's ruthless and dishonest. NOT presidential material.

Joyce, NC,

He is offerinc $1000 in middle income tax cuts. Wait… yea, u just dont want to hear it. Sounds like aplan to me that can help you with your gas and your food. People, watch Hillary borrow Obamas lines on food this week, like she does most positions of his. People are just 2 dumb to notice. Joyce, she is not offereing a solution, she is pandering. BE HONEST!!

OBAMA=NO SOLUTIONS

30 YEAR OLD MALE COLLEGE GRADUATE FOR HILLARY.

Pander away, Hillary. That is all you know.

Clinton cannot even manage a relatively small campaign. It is in the red by over $10 million.

What does she know about economics? Not much, unless you count her treatment of the people she owes to. She is in debt to individuals and small and large businesses, and she rudely refuses to pay up.

"I'm going to do everything I possibly can to make sure that one of us takes the oath of office next January. I think that has to be the overriding goal, whatever we have to do."
— Hillary Clinton, debate, 4/16/08

“Of course once we have a nominee we’re going to close ranks and have a unified party because the differences between us as Democrats pale in comparison to the differences we have with Sen. McCain and the Republicans”
– Hillary Clinton, 5/05/08

Hillary Supporters:

Please explain why so many of you believe she is a liar about this and doesn't care what happens to our country.

They repealed the gas tax in Illinois a few years ago and it didn't work. Gas prices went right back up. Tell me how it will magically work now. Plus Bush will veto that anyway.

And who cares, it's $30.

I cannot understand Hillary, stating she would obliterate Iran (she's talking nucs here) That sounds like war mongering to me. So wha't the difference in her and the egomaniac Bush.

All 3 have been negative. SO, what's new?

Hillary 08!!!!!!

The Democrats were handed the 2008 Presidential election and they are doing everything in their power to loose. I wonder if any of them have been paying attention to the biggest and most important issue of all…OBAMA cannot beat MCCAIN! Fact! Every poll has proven that and it will be even more clear if its Obama V McCain this summer (if the Dems are actually silly enough to let that happen, I think they are) Of course, this was bound to happen since the Dems have one of the worst leaders on the planet – a literal laughing stock, HOWARD DEAN of all people is in charge of their party. Dean actually blew off the King-maker state of FL, of all places. Democrats seem to forget FL picked the president in the last two elections and it was NOT a Democrat that won – so lets REALLY upset them by throwing them out – brilliant. Dems are flushing the election, and I think its good for America.

One thing that I like in this process is that it would give us an idea about the ratio of uneducated to educated people in US. I can't imaging how one can have any education and still fall for Clinton's gas tax plan. Moreover, she is not in charge to even make it happen. So, what are you Hillary fans happy about?!!

CNN is biased towards Obama and pandering to Clinton. Look at your conflicting header. The right question should be what has happed to CNN lately? I'm switching my loyalty to MSNBC the best in television and politics. I'm done blogging with CNN.

What can ANY of the candidates do about the gas tax THIS summer? Zilch. Besides, Americans need to wake up and learn that we need to do what is painful to do- start conserving gas!

She needs to go negative because there is nothing positive about her candidacy..

Senator Clinton's plan calls for $30/summer savings. I think its laughable when McCain says that he wants the holiday so that "hard working Americans can spend some of their hard earned money on other things, like vacations." Thanks for the $30 vacation, John and Hill.

Obama points this out and gets called an elitist that is out of touch? I guess that makes McCain and Hillary fakes that patronize the American people with $30 savings over 3 months.

No, it has to stop here. Obama knows (because is decidedly NOT elitist) that the $30 savings may come at the expense of those hard-working American's neighbors, who might lose their road construction jobs because the trust fund is depleted. This country is a community and, despite the excesses of selfish indulgence that come out of career politician's mouths, nobody would sell their neighbor up the river for $30. Nobody.

Just because you are smarter, more thoughtful, and directed at real answers does not make you an elitist. Having a shot of crown with a bunch of blue collar workers for a photo op and then retreating to one of your mansions, however, is ridiculous pandering.

We Obama supporters are thankful that nothing has happened to Barak Obama. He's still the inspirational, calm, steady and decent leader that we have supported from the beginning! And despite the desperate, low, despicable efforts of the Clintons (and McCain) to discredit him in the false hope that they will somehow gain by it, the facts still remain: 1. Obama closed this thing out on Super Tuesday! 2. There is no way for Clinton to catch up, in delegates, states, or super-delegates. 3. Obama has won in 30 states, in both deleagtes and popular votes. 4. Hillary Clinton still has a 58% negative rating among the general voting public. Barak Obama will be the next President of the United States and this country will be much better for it!

Does Clinton actually believe that the folks in North Caroline and Indiana will fall for her gas tax holiday? All scientific and non scientific feedback is that it will hurt you not help. This is George B ush tactics. She has a bad idea and my golly she's sticking with it! Its this kind of politics that got America into the trouble its in. I'm also interested in this repeated comment that its the "lunch box people" who support Clinton and the intellectuals and young people who support Obama. Are lunch box people not smart? That appears to be the implication the press is giving. Aren't people offended by that? I know I wold be. It is almost presented as the smart people vote for Obama and the stupid people vote for Clinton. To all you hard working "lunch box types" show them how smart you are and vote for Obama.

Clinton Sink. The play on words is appropriate in more ways than one.

They must be kidding me. If anybody actually thinks Hillary is smarter at economics than almost EVERY QUALIFIED ECONOMIST IN AMERICA… switch your portfolio from Warren Buffet and give it to me.

Anyone who hasn't seen Obama's interview with Tim Russert on "Meet the Press" should check it out. he answers this question- "What has happened to Barack Obama?"

In a nutshell, here is what has happened- While in the Illinois state legislature, Obama voted for a bill which suspended the gas tax, very much the way Hillary is now proposing. At the time, he says, it seemed like a good idea. In reality, the oil companies and gas stations just raised their prices to compensate for the extra gas taxes that they were forced to pay. In the end, taxpayers didn't save any money and the gas companies got even higher profits.

Here's the other thing- No one actually expects Bush to sign a windfall tax bill if it gets to him, so there wouldn't be any money to pay for the proposed "gas tax holiday". On top of that, Hillary has already stated that she would spend any windfall taxes from oil companies on other things, so she isn't very clear on exactly how her proposed gas tax holiday would work.

No mention of anything positive for Obama, but they will post this dribble. She does as she always does… When she sees she can not win, she lies and tries to manipulate the truth. Obama has stated from the beginning that he was creating a tax credit from the taxing of windfall for families. No plan? Or actually it should be that he has a plan that works and economist agree is a plan that will change instead of the gimmicks of the past. GOODBYE HILLARY… PLEASE FOR THE SAKE OF GOD AND COUNTRY GET HER OUT OF HERE>

"The Clinton campaign countered that Obama is siding with the oil companies over hard working voters increasingly pinched by the price of gas."

what a bunch of crap.

Concerned May 5th, 2008 2:18 pm ET

Clinton stated in 2005: 'I Agree With McCain' On Long-Term Iraq Presence." Here is the rest:

*************************************************************************

What no mention of the fact that at about the same time obama said his position on Iraq was the same as the Presidents?

Superdelegates are flowing to Obama like water flowing into a basin. Wow…………..Obama 08.

Hillary will on May 6……LOL…I am happy

Gas Tax holiday!!! Do they think we are idiots? It's too late for me to cast my vote for the primary but I will save it for the general election. I am switching from Clinton to Obama. I am will not fooled twice.

Go Obama

GO——– HILLARY YOU GET THE JOB DONE . HILLARY,08 ALL THE WAY

@Mike

"I guess Obama's church believes in only 9 of the 10 commandments. The 10th one about taking God's name in vain must have been just a suggestion."

actually… the context in which he used it was correct and not taking God's name in vain. either way, i don't agree with Rev. Wright.

Obama '08

Yes We Can.

She shows her ignorance again. She has not control over taxing the oil companies to make up for the loss of tax revenue generated by this gimmick. She doesn't know that the oil companies don't make the profit at the pump, in fact they often lose pennies on the dollar. The only oil companies that make huge profits are those companies with refineries. That is where the real money is made.

She is pandering and has to be the most dishonest politician in Washington…that is a very sad state of affairs. Some people in this country will vote for the most dishonest and crocked politician in DC….

I beleive Hillary is wrong on the gas Tax and will hurt this country in the end. Is this the best USA can do – Bush/Clinton/Bush/Clinton – come guys take a look and see beyond the "Bills" of this world

anyone that falls for this gas tax .. is not in touch with what is really going on.. !!! .. saving $30.00 over three months.. is not a savings people.. wake up before it is to late !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! obama has the integrity to be honest and let us know that this wont be easy but he will find a solution that will help long term….

Hey 17 cents a gallon is better than nothing a gallon.!!!! That is not all that Hillary is proposing!!! You Obamanites need to get over it….all Obama is in this for is himself!! All he can do is lie about what she is trying to do….he is trying to do NOTHING!!!

Get out now Obama!!!

Clinton goes negative…what a shock!

Here is Obama people crying again instead of offering solutions. These tactics no longer work. Obama does not have a single plan. He needs to Mr. Wright and get some advice on AIDS, foreign policy, and economy. What a joke …

Stop the Madness!!!

I am sooooooo disappointed and totally disgusted with HRC tactics. She is the epitome of everything I despise about politics. She will beat the hope right out of the American public and if she wins the nomination she will be so proud of herself. How can this woman live with herself? Do anything, say anything. Ugh.

Clinton think shes the smartest she has no idea what her plan will cause, that is lots of jobs.

Typical Clinton gimmick. It will drive up consumption.

Go CNN (FOX-Lite)!!!

Keep on advertising for your girl Hillary!!!!

With all the support you have given her over the last two months with Bill and Chelsea and William Kristol, and Karl Rove, and Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter and theClinton/McCain/CNN coordinated attacks on Obama, she sure should be winning!

Where's Obama?? Liking his wounds from the last debate. He chickened out of a Lincoln/Douglas-style debate b/c he has nothing substantial to offer, just hopes and dreams! He's a used-car salesman who will deeply divide America on racial boundaries. Is he a black man with a white mom, or a white man with a black dad?? He is truly the candidate that will say anything to court a vote.

Why didn't he leave Wright's church? Why doesn't he say that his infamous Iraq vote actually meant nothing? Why can't he close the deal? Why can't he solidly defeat Hillary? Why can't he get the working-stiff's vote? There's a lot more behind him that we don't know about. Truth of the matter is, if he was a white guy w/the same experience, he'd be laughed out of the ballot box.

Elect someone w/experience….

Elect Clinton/Edwards '08!!!!

Last ditch efforts are fruitless at this point Hillary. It is suggested that you pay your creditors at this time because the jig is up!!

Barack "The Truth" Obama '08

She is a panderer and we don't care what ads she runs. 67% of those surveyed recognize the absolute nonsense of "supposed" plan. We want to instead talk about the intelligent 9 superdelegates coming out for Obama, as they recognize pandering and lying to the public for what it is.

Has anybody else noticed that during Hillary's 1st fourteen months of campaning her whole theme was "She had the experience and She would be ready on day one" Now for the past two months it's all been about the poor working people. She's pretending she gets into her car every day and drives to work and stops at the gas station for a fill up just like the rest of us. If I had the opportunity to ask her a question I would ask her when was the last time she got a fill-up. I'll bet that would get her stammering for an answer to show how common she is.

I am really getting tired of all of the CNN posts for Hillary–you would think you could do a little better than George!

Apparently, she chooses to only help those who drive. Obama wants a $1,000 rebate to all persons so they may use it for food, medicine, or gasoline. Sounds a little better than $28.

One of your articles mentioned how nice she is being on the final day before the primary. Most of us were waiting for the other shoe to drop, like she has done right before each primary–tears, drinking or whatever it would take to get people to feel sorry for her.

Eff that Boetch. She is all about winning at any cost. I once held her and Bill in high esteem, now I see them for what I guess they really are. She's destroying any legacy of Bill's presidency – probably subconsciously for revenge against the Monica mess. Get out of the race and help unite us Hillary if you really are a decent person.

Typical old game. This lady is an actor, not a presidential candidate…
This is an insult to American intellegence
Indiana, we are tired of this lady… Can you write her campaign death certificate?

It's a shame to say, but I think the Democrats are going to lose again!!

FUTURE HEADLINES…….

President-elect Hillary Clinton is to testify soon in a trial for fraud during her senatorial campaign. So far, she has hinted she does not remember too much and may have possibly misspoken or not conveyed the facts as she once knew them to be. Also, she has distanced herself from former President Bill Clinton, also involved the trial. She says that despite having the same name…she does not recall meeting him or if he contributed financially to her campaign…she reminded us that '…Clinton is a fairly common name, like Smith..', so in fact, there is no relation at all. She said the evidence against the former president is unfortunate and it illustrates the kind of transparency and need for accountability she has always fought for, and will continue to push for in Washington.

Hillary is doing more damage to our party than she'll ever understand. I wish she would go away.

Hate to say this, but Only Hillary supporters are uneduated and la la landish to believe, 1. That Bush will allow this to happen, 2. That this gas tax will save you any money. The companies will just raise their prices to offset this stupidity. $30, give me a break. I spend that in 2 days on gas. Not good enough….

Again Hillary…where are the 2007 tax papers

I THOUGH HILLARY WAS A DEMOCRAT

WHEN DID SHE TURN REPUBLICAN? SUPPORTING MCCAIN

It appears that the lies (Bosnia), not listening to the experts (pandering about gas breaks) and dirty tactics undermining Obama whenever she can, seems to be working for her in Indiannapolis. How can this be? I really hope they end up seeing clearly tomorrow. She cannot overtake him anyway in the delegate count. Enough already! I only hope both states go for Barrack in such a way that she will be forced to root for him!

It is a great add , it may not be the best plan but it is a plan and makes the OIL Companies accountable. they won't even miss the money.

GO Hillary , I am proud of you for standing up for us.

The fact that Clintons lie is not new.

The disappointment is that there are so many people who can be fooled by a cheap promise, which isn't even a promise since Clinton does not have power to implement this silly "gas-tax" gimmick.

Perhaps people should start thinking that they might be poor just because people like Clintons collect hundreds of millions for giving speeches which do not do any good, just sell our country to those who offer cash.

Did any of YOU hear those Bill Clinton speeches that pay 250K per hour? Did they change the world? Did they feed YOUR children? Did they lower YOUR gas prices? Is an empty speech of a narcissist worth several years of YOUR hard work?

Start connecting the dots!

the prices at the pump will go up due to supply and demand, and those who set the prices for oil are playing on the enron loophole to raise the price to whatever they want. it's the distributers and the oil companies that will see their record profits go up due to Hillary's go it alone approach that caused her heathcare proposal to fall flat. they will not be punished because the people who she needs to support this idea think it's a bad idea.

obama was for this idea until it was proven it does not work. he admits it was a mistake and cares not to go there again. smart man.

if you're FOR saving a few bucks, you're FOR laying off 300,000 people who repair the roads and bridges. remember, they have families to feed too.

Obama reminds me a little of the great & powerful OZ!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't look at the man behind the curtain!!!

superdelegats watch what kind of movements this women is making.Are you ready to be responsible to give her chance and aprove this atitude .Republicans are laughing how low we are and world is stuned that we are still considering somebody without integrity ( lackin it to that deegre) as haaaving chance , or having dilemas. What are your dilemas ???Dont you see where she is leading and what of a direction she will set .God save us, if can't have better judgement

Hillary is playing people for stupid.Please people before you let this gas tax issue change your votes do the math.I drive 250 miles per week at 20mpg.That is about 12.5 gallon per week for work.At 18.5 cents per gallon that is a savings of$2.31 cents per week,9.24.per month,that is 27.72 savings for the 3 month summer holiday.That is providing that the gas companies don't jack the prices to make it up.
Then Sept 1 it all goes back to normal.I won't vote for Hillary to save $27.72 .Will You?

a) PolitickerMD reports that State Democratic Party Chairman Michael Cryor and Vice Chairwoman Lauren Dugas Glover will endorse Illinois Senator Barack Obama this afternoon.

b) Superdelegate Kalyn Free Endorses Barack Obama

3 superdelegates more today

OBAMA 08

One thing for sure, Hillary or Bush families would never be interested in improving education system. That would be like a suicide. The lower education level, the more probably person supported Bush and supports Hillary, supported war in Iraq and supports 'gas tax' bogus. What remains here to be done is to unite two royal families into one by some marriage, and to close research universities… dumb people are easier to rule. The country will survive… as long as China continues giving us money.

If you believe that saving $30 this summer is worth your vote, then you deserve what you vote for.

There are 4 groups of people that vote for Hillary Clinton:

1) Women who want to see a woman as President, who see this as a way to turn back the clock on decades of inequality ( Can you blame them?)

2) People who feel a loyalty to the Clintons.

3) Republicans who are looking to cause chaos in the Democratic party, and who would rather face Hillary in November. A large number of them would vote for McCain in the end anyway.

4) BIGOTS who mask their racist intentions by voting for Hillary because they would never vote for an African American.

Anyone who doesn't see through Clinton, let alone supports her, is uneducated and a poor judge of character. That's the bottom line.

So, the Oil companies will raise the price of gas if we get a tax break? Haven't they been doing that all along? Why would they stop now…

People please, IN and NC – remember the construction workers who will be laid off because of no money in the Road fund. Can we really do this to the 3,000 or so workers??? Question yours – $30.00 is not going to help you when the tax if lifted. We will be paying the same federal tax and then have to repay for the HOLIDAY refund. Think we need to end this Now. I am a republican and also a white grandmother over 60 – and I am voiting for Obama – even if I have to write in his name. I will not stand for this sxxthead of a women to be again in the White House. Oh, think about the Middle East – will they work with a woman?

That's okay…tomorrow we will be asking WHAT HAPPENED HILLARY?? When she is on her way back to New Arkansas Pennsylvania.

Are people really this dumb? Seriously? I don't think you need a college education to know this scheme doesn't add up…Maybe you do….

I hate to say this, since I dislike Clinton, but atleast she is willing to make stands for policies she believes in. All I hear from Obama is hope hope hope, throw in a change here and there, and top it off with more hope. Meanwhile, all he does is criticizes proposals the other candidates make. What happened to running a positive campaign? It's always easy to criticize other people but it's difficult to come up with solutions. Obama needs to grow a spine and throw his ideas out there so the other candidates can pick them apart.

stephen May 5th, 2008 2:25 pm ET

Didn't Bill open up the Strategic reserves while president to ease the cost at the pump? Would that work again?
—————————————————————

Yes sir. I think that was a good move by Bill Clinton and in my opinion, that would be a better move than this "tax holiday" stuff that may not even benefit the average American.

Obama is right it's just a typical Washinton tactic to get a vote anything to win and worry about who you stepped on or lied to later.

PS. Kentucky dirby Obama bet Big Brown, Hillary bet 8 bells, do I need to say what the outcome was.

She is more like the repbulicans every day.
Hillary Clinton is 4 more years of Bush

Obama stated the oil companies will just raise prices to make up thier loss. Well during the past four weeks the Oil companies through thier oil speculators have raised the price twice the gas tax savings. Is Obama saying the Oil companies will stop rasing prices during the summer? I did not think so… Obama voted for the Chaney bill and is in with the Oil companies (no pack monies, however every employee and excutive gave him max donations, oh ya as Obama stated they just like me)
We need someone who will stand for every working american. Not just those who like them….

Hillary 08

You people are absolute morons if you think a gas tax holiday is going to help.

i do not see the point in the democratic debate any more its just a waste of time. but on the upside McCain is filling his campaign coffers. and for everyone who thinks McCain is another bush well you should go to the hospital and have your self checked out. have a Nice Day.

"HER plan"? She stole it from McCain days after he proposed it FIRST!

What's happening to Hillary Clinton? Why won't she "put stock in what the EXPERTS say"? (Her quote, McClinton lovers, not mine NOR Obama's – so "stop whining")!!!)

Is this making you "bitter & clinging" to your "non-existant model of the Mauser 66 rifle" on the front of HRC's latest Obama-smear mailings in IN & NC that the "elitest", "latte' sipping, Gucci-wearing" Clinton didn't even know American HUNTERS don't use? (The gun, for you "uneducated" McClinton supporters may not know, is/was IMPORTED from Germany & "it's hardly typical of what the average working-man in Indiana uses".)

Please, be my guest & READ the article & EDUCATE yourselves for ten minutes!!! It'll be fun

http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/0508/Clinton_mailings_gun_gaffe.html

PLEASE!! Stop falling prey to McCain/Clinton REPUBLICAN propaganda before it's too late!!! For your children's children's future!!!

Umm, what happened to you miss Clinton ?? You was supposed to win in feb. , You had the name, the money and the super delegates on your side ??? where did you slip ???

Don't we already have a President who ignores facts? Clinton will not weigh the opinions and findings of economists on this issue? They are too elite all of a sudden? Look, we've all seen what 8 years of Bush idiocy has done to this country. I want a President in office who is smarter than me and listens to those who are experts in their respective field(s) when making decisions.

Hillary Clinton continues to dumb down her "message" in an attempt to win at all costs. She uses her intellect to take advantage of people, not help them, and that's a problem.

I am truly starting to think that Hillary is just plain evil.

McCain/Hillary 08

With the continuing support of CNN, Hillary doesnt need a spin doctor.

Hang in there OBAMA!

How is she paying for this add? Last I saw her campaign was still running a deficit and she hadn't paid all the vendors who did work for the campaign. Just what we need, another President who can't handle finances.
Obama '08-'12

Obama is bored with primaries, he wanted them to be over. Why would he offer any solution for increasing gas we're paying at the pump; the people knew all along he didn't tell them "I'm a problem solver". One thing I can say good about Obama he's a "speech maker," he'd talk your ears off until you have ear infection.

Obama hasn't offered any short term solution for rising cost of gas at the pump. Hillary offered short term and long term solution. To latte drinking and agula people like Obama, $30.00 savings is nothing, to them that is NOT money. For people eking out a living making both ends meet, that is a LOT of money.

Oh good grief – Please please please – all of you wonderful folks in North Carolina (yes, some of us know the difference) and Indiana – please vote for Senator Obama tomorrow and end this thing. I don't know how much more Hill antics we can take. Let's just get it done and move on. There is no way for her to catch him so this is just a waste of money, time and energy that could be used to defeat the latest "Darth" – Darth McCain

Bottom Line:

Obama wins NC by 12% +

Obama wins Indiana by 4% +

Wednesday morning sees the Superdelegate floodgates open to Obama.

This race was and is over.

This is a quote from Hillary's ad:
"[Obama] is attacking Hillary's plan to give you a break on gas prices because he doesn't have one," says the ad. "Hillary wants the oil companies to pay for the gas tax this summer — so you don't have to."

If Hillary is such a hero for trying to get miniscule relief for you this summer, why isn't she in Washington trying to put the legislation through? It's almost Memorial Day, after all. At least then skeptics of her plan could at least believe she is being honest about this.

People are so gullible. I am so afraid for this country. And CNN has hit a new low of Hillary pandering. Just look at the slant of all of the stories on the ticker today. Disgraceful bunch of cowards — afraid she'll take out negative ads on you?

It smells like desperation to me. your future president who says to hell with the economists, im gonna do it my way. this gots to be a joke. as far as the non educated voters buy into it, she will continue to tell you what you want to hear

barack hussein obama dont care about the working people, now u can tell from him attacking hillary's wanting a gas tax holiday to relieve us people of big burden in paying gas in the pump, that $30.00 to $70.00 a month is big help for us people who really dont have that money to keep on paying that high price gas! and barack dont have any concern about us, and his fighting hillary and mccain on this issue, coz barack is supporting dick cheney to increase federal gas tax and tax the people and u can tell whats in the working mind of barack, tax the people is that what he called "CHANGE?" i just hoped hillary will keep on fighting for the people no matter what barack is against her, she is the best among those 2 candidate barack n mccain. hillary is presidential in all category!!

Does Obama has any plan or detailed policies as to what he would do. It seems all he does is attack other candidates' plans. Please be original and if you don't have any thing to present to the public, just be quiet and stay silent. We quite frankly are sick and tire of Obama's whining and providing excuses. North Carolina and Indiana can put into place and never have to hear him again, then again we have too many blacks in North Carolina. This Democratic race is clearly black and white issue with young immature college socialist kids getting involved in the middle. Don't let the socialists run this country. We fought hard against Russia and we do not want to see this country convert to socialism.

CNN IS BIASED IN THEIR REPORTING LATELY. CNN IS FAVORING HILLARY, THAT IS UNFAIR TO OBAMA, WE KNOWS IT. OBAMA WILL BE THE NOMINATE SOON.

It might have to do with an oil company CEO being the largest contributor to Obama's campaign.

This is exactly why Hillary must be forced out NOW. Her
negativity , lies and sleaze factor turn Democrats further away
each day… I would just as soon not vote as vote for her and
her repulsive behavior!

What is much more critical is the sleazy conspiracy between the Clintons,Rev. Wright and the news media. I have listened to the Rev. Wright speech that sparked this manufactured controversy. Guess what I heard. The Rev. Wright gushes with love for the Clintons. Don't believe it? Listen to the speech. Rrev. Wright Loves the Clintons! The speech never mentions Obama once. Rev. Wright was a confidant of the Clintons during the Bill Presidency and he still loves and supports them This whole Rev. Wright contoversy is a plot by the Clintons,Wright and the media to discredit Obama. If the truth comes out. Rev. Wright would become a Clinton controversy as it indeed should be.

Hey CNN, how about THIS last minute ad:

ANOTHER SUPERDELEGATE WHO HAPPENS TO BE A WOMAN ENDORSES BARACK OBAMA.

You haven't reported this all day. What is wrong with you, Fox News…I mean, CNN?

SHE WILL SAY ANYTHING TO WIN!

IT SEEMS TO ME LIKE PEOPLE ENJOY LIES OR FALSE HOPES

If Hillary becomes president,, you will miss George Bush. Remember this words. The world will hate us even more. McCain and Clinton agree on too many critical issues. Gas tax, war mongering,,, they agree on bomb, bomb, bomb iran. You lunch bucket guys are fools for not doing your home work and just voting on name recognition. FOOLS.

Sounds like a fair and balanced ad.

On the other hand, BO uses his true phony colors to equate his fellow democrats to George Bush, only because they are his opponents. The lowest low in politics you can even do, by equating your opponent to your worst political enemy. Seems that he will say and do anything, even the dirtiest tricks, to win a vote.

To: all 4 Obama

The plan you mentioned is in every politicians speech. Nothing original nor new that Obama offered. Sure, freedom from foreign oil, etc…BUT what do you do in the meantime when we have yet perfected the technology to free us from foreign oil?????

You see, this is what Obama sorely lack – the next step and the step after that. The alternative, long term thinking. An original plan. A good grasps of the issues.
I do admire Hilary and even McCain for at least trying to offer a solution, at least thinking about it and presenting them at the table for everyone to scrutinize. I have yet to see Obama take that stand. He is too afraid to get scrutinized.

Hillary will take both IN and NC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HILLARY 2008!!

Sad just Sad
I am speachless…………..

How do good people fall for this womans lies?

I can't even fathom a United Sates America with Hillary as our President……..

We cannot let this Happen People………..

DO YOU HEAR ME ?????

I vote in Oregon and you can bet it will be for the Best this country has been offered in a long time

Barack Obama 08

Hillary wants to tax the oil companies windfall taxes. Too bad she has already tax them already for her renewal/alternative fuel plan!

So Hillary will DOUBLE TAX oil companies, and guess what the OIL companies will do in response? Increase oil (gas) prices because demand will essentially remain constant!

So, not only gas prices continue to rise, you will also lose construction jobs!

Hillary was not ready on day 1 of her senate position.
Hillary was not ready on day 1 of this primary election.

So, how can she be ready for the general election?
And how can she be ready for the Presidency?

Obama has made himself from mimicking or opposing Hillary's ideas. I am surprised he came out anginist this since this will help truckdrivers and taxix drivers the poor and the working poor the most. Lacking his own short term idea to counter, his oppostion to this can only display how elitist and out of touch he is or how dence his camp is to ideas of there own.

DESPARATION !!!!!

oil companies will raise the price of gas the amount that gas retreats from the removal of federal tax, they raise it if it rains, sun shines, cool weather, hot weather, or the first of the month when people gets their social security checks

Obama says "move beyond race" while quietly collecting 90% of the black vote. Hillary's (and Bill's) civil rights record is long, and always in favor of black civil rights. Black people have turned their backs on her because of the color of her face. So it must be ALL about race, which is why Obama will lose if he makes it to the general election. If Obama meant what he said about moving beyond race, he'd call for blacks to vote for policy, and to disregard his face. Hillary actually HAS policy. What he means on "beyond race" is "I need white people to vote for me too".

The solutions the Clintons have is their LIES and DECEIPTION. Wonder as to how people are falling for the lies.

Wow, she thinks we're totally stupid! No wonder there's so much support for Obama here! He sees how detrimental this would be to the future economy, and she just wants to get into the white house!!!

The delegate count has been updated- 1742 for Obama and 1602 for Clinton. Which superdelegates did they each get? It would be interesting to know who they are and which states they are in.

Who remembers GWB saying that Dems didn't have any better plan despite the complaining about going to war in Iraq? First, yes they did propose alternate plans. Second, even if they didn't, that wouldn't have justified pursuing a plan guaranteed to fail.

We have to learn from these kinds of things.

I am not necessarily an Obama supporter but why should I believe any ad put out by Hillary Clinton given the context below?

So help me out with this, I just don't get it. How did Hillary Clinton "LAUGH AWAY" LYING to the AMERICAN PEOPLE about the sniper shooting story concerning BOSNIA?
I know we are human and we make mistakes. But the context of situation i.e. running for the highest office in American, lying to the nation, then LAUGHING IT OFF IN OUR FACES just troubles me. Especially when the media seemed to have allowed it to slide. Why should we believe what she says now, or what she would say to us if she were the President?

CNN are you going to post this? Are you taking sides or do you remain neutral? What's up with this country?

ill take the gas tax money it is mine to start with and you dont no that the oil companys will raise prices. get what you can out of these politicans after the election its business as usual regardless of who the president is. go hillary

Now that we have endured way too many weeks of Rev. Wright nonsense, for equal time's sake how about the media going after Sen. Clinton for her economically unjustifiable gas tax proposal. If coverage was equal Sen. Obama should now be able to sit back and watch.

What is happening to CNN..I am totally disgusted by your news. Obama gained 3 delegates today and California delegates are planning to switch from Hillary to Obama…Obama has gained 5 % in the gallup poll and erased last week lead by Hillary. Why is this not reported? But last week you reported Hillary 4 % gain in the Gallup polls. Why are you biased.

The media knows that Obama is going to win the nomination, but they are holding on to Hillary's stories because it creates a sense of competition when there is none.

CNN..if anyone is destroying the country..it is you. I AM ASHAMED and DISAPPOINTED.

HIllary is taking a calculated risk by taking tax temporarily away on gas. The risk also includes working on gaining a windfall tax on the oil companies. She is attempting something and therefore we as a people are not just waiting impatiently at the pumps watching the price of gas go up while making no effort to do anything. She is proactive while Obama is reactive. She takes the lead and does something, no risk no gain. You have to buy a lottery ticket to win, the chances of success are small but at least you have a chance.
Do we have a chance with Obama? What has he ever done that has helped anyone? When, where, how?
Clinton 08

Insted of using millions of dollars in advertisements to attack Hillary, Obama could have used debates to get through his message…

AFTER 12 STRAIGHT WINS OBAMA STARTED LOSING AND IT^S NOT BECAUSE OF "WRIGHT ISSUE"…

POLLS ARE SHOWING THAT "WRIGHT" ISSUE DOESN^T AFFECT OBAMA…..

Many can deliver good speeches and use slogans but only few have the vision to solve problems…

IT^S DEFINITELY HILLARY CLINTON…..

HILLARY HAS STRATEGY , KNOWLEDGE, WISDOM AND COURAGE TO LEAD AMERICA …

SHE WILL MAKE AMERICANS PROUD AND OTHER COUNTRY LEADERS TO RESPECT AMERICA…….

-Hillary 08.

Lies and misrepresentations on the federa gas tax, which is entirely controlled by the oil industry in terms of collection and payment to the feds.

McCain and Clinton should be ashamed to support something that won't benefit consumers. Not one cent.

Don't let all the media hype go to your head! This is all a ploy for white people to forget that they are poor just like every one else. Focus on the issues people. The media always has a way of spinning the truth. It is a conspiracy. We all know that Obama is the one who deserves the win.

Hillary Clinton 2008 and 2012 – America's Margaret Thatcher!

Obama – the candidate of obfuscation, misinformation and far left ideology!

This woman is very ill and as dangerous as bush. She actually believes the gas tax holiday is her idea. John MCcain prposed it first, and with all oger integrity she took credit for it. It's amazing, I don't think voters should be required to show photo id's to vote, but should be rquired to take an IQ exam. You can't have omeone with her character holding the highest office in the world. Also in her great gas tax plan, I wonder what she proposes when it ends and prices continue to rise , as though no tax holiday ocurred. Finally Which summer is she proposing this plan for, she's not in office this year, has a fat chance of being in there next year. Her nose is continually growing.

"In politics, absurdity is not a handicap" – Napoleon Bonaparte

Hillary is such a liar. The gas tax break was not even her idea. Even with the tax break of some 30-40cents/gallon, that wouldn't make the oil prices to come down.
The tax break is temporary and only will benefit the companies to pocket more profit and still keep supplies low.

We need solutions to make the oil prices to fall…so we dont have to pay $4.50/gallon in the winter. Any long term solution insight with the gas tax break?…I dont think so.

This ad is just another scam in Hellary's arsenal of bogus promises that creates more poroblems than a solution….take your tax break and goto Columbia and Canada…

Obama has better vision and more realistic long term plans…the short-sighted solutions have brought us to this economic crisis…we dont need more of Bush shadows….go away Hel..lary.

Yeah hillary! help the Little Guy! Cause thousands of highway Maintanence workers lose their Jobs!

Politicians Like Hillary are what make people cynical about government. Pandering Liars have run our country into the ground for long enough!

Hillary, I already spent your fantasy $30 in savings from the gas tax holiday on a Obama T-shirt! Listen to Obama explain this situation on Meet the Press.

Manages to disgust the brain and the gut simultaneously.

How come this is the "most bruising ad to date" from Hillary. I really don't like that tone. Obama's ad attacked her gas holiday first. But CNN didn't call his ad bruising. The media bias is so upsetting.

Obama is fair game for attack ads. He has shown lately that he is a lying politician just like the rest of them. The only difference between Barack and Hillary or McCain is that Barack's pastor has confirmed for America that Barack is a liar that says what he has to say to get elected.

I don't know how we in the black community can support this man after even his pastor has indicated that he is a liar!!!

Great article today by CNNS own Glen Beck. Its a must read entitled "Obama's odd timing on Wright".

"I'm glad Obama has come to the same conclusion that Wright's critics came to long ago. I just wonder why it took me two minutes and him two decades."

That sums it up for me. We need a leader not a Politician trying to do anything he can to get elected.

Go Hillary

I thought Hillary was being conciliatory today? This sounds like the same old negative message from her. Obama has consistently taken the high road. But she just keeps lashing out with negative attacks. Is this really how a leader would act? Hillary wants to be seen as a fighter, but a real leader know when to fight and what to fight against. With her, it's all fight all the time. Obama treats the voters with respect.
O '08

Obamaniacs: the gas tax relief may be just a “band-aid”, but next time you cut yourself, I suggest not cleaning it or slapping a band aid on it…just let it fester for some time, and then try to heal it…And as for Iran: Obama himself said this morning on CNN that if Iran attacked Israel he would retaliate. When asked about using nucs’ he just flip-flopped, danced around the question, but never clearly said he wouldn’t use them…

And what will she say next week? The "Tax Holiday" is a joke. This election is a joke and this county is becoming a joke (because someone doesn't know when to stop). Take Bill with you too.

There she goes again manipulating the circumstance just to get votes. The sad thing is that people are actually falling for her crap. She paints herself as a modern day Robin Hood, when her and husband are responsible for millions of jobs being shipped abroad. her campaign strategist is lobbying for columbia while she goes around claiming to be against shipping jobs oversees. Wake up NC and IN, this lady will do and say anything to get elected. Lets not forget the last time the government played on the fear of people, we ended up in a war that has killed over 4,000 american and is destroying the economy.

The ignorance here is astounding.

Eliminating the gas tax, albeit temporarily, will do nothing. Those taxes will have to come from somewhere and you bet it will be added to your year-end income tax, somehow.

And I'm astounded at those of you that believe oil companies create the price of gasoline. The price of gasoline comes from a bit of speculation, the price of oil and a HELL of a lot of small supply and huge demand. I see a lot of you aren't college educated and were educated at government schools.

Let see, of the three candidates we have:

Obama – The person with NO ideas
Clinton – The person with BAD ideas
McClain – The career politician who hasn't a CLUE.

I agree folks, Hillary doesn't have a chance and CNN should report the news without a hillary angle–Obama leads by four it's a slight edge but Hillary by four is a clear lead?? C'mon, CNN, do better than that!! We already trashed Fox News!

read kelleys comments everybody if you care so much about jobs and
the economy.

You IDIOTS.

- Obama does have a plan – he has LOTS of plans. Go to his website and read them http://www.BarackObama.com.
- EVERYONE WHO STUDIES THIS STUFF says Hillary's plan is pure pandering, and NEARLY EVER MAJOR ECONOMIST says its WON'T work. Hillary says, she doesn't care what economists think.

Fantastic, I guess she just knows in her gut how to lead. I think Stephen Colbert said it best "That's where the truth lies, right down here in the gut. Do you know you have more nerve endings in your gut than you have in your head? You can look it up. I know some of you are going to say "I did look it up, and that's not true." That's 'cause you looked it up in a book. Next time, look it up in your gut."

Adolf Hitler had a good one too: "What good fortune for those in power that people do not think"

So true. This is making me sick. And CNN, you're not helping.

Hilary is so selfish. She will do anything to destroy everyone else so that she can win – which will destroy the democrats chance at winning the election. But what most people dont realize is that none of Hilary's dirty laundry has been aired yet – and there sure is allot of it. MUCH more damaging stuff than Obama's ex pastor's comments. If Hillary gets the nomination, i think McCain will win because there is so many appalling things the Clinton's have done that the news stations don't talk about (yet).

What happened is that he said he tried the gas tax holiday in Chicago and it didn't work. What happened is that he learned from his mistake. Why can't you Hillary?

I hope threre is problem for Obama u going to see it tomorow,
But if Hilary win that would be the big mistake the American people to make , that will again general public to suffer another decate.
I hope voters will use their right very carefully.

First off something is better than nothing and Obama has offered nothing.

You don't attack a canidates proposals, you offer your own, that is if you have any. Americans are not interested in 10 years from now, we want now.

As to Clinton's statement on America having the capability to "Obliterate" Iran if they would mount an attack on an American ally, it's the truth and that truth kept the United States and the Soviet Union from destroying themselves for over 50 years. It is time that third rate nations striving to have nuclear weapons understand that they can make a half dozen or so and threaten a neighbor, but we can destroy their cultur without even putting a dent in our capablities.

Don't like what Clinton says, then come up with something on your own.

Clinton 08 & 12

The national media outlets need to raise the hue and cry to count the Florida and Michigan votes as they were counted. Regardless of the circumstances under which millions voted in those primaries – we the voters voted. Our votes need to be counted, otherwise John McCain will be our next President.

Richard in Florida

2 more Maryland super delegates will pledge their support to Obama this afternoon.

i have seen the light.
no more hillary for me
i am on the obama wagon now.
obama 08
clinton 1800

Obama is using the kitchen sink strategy because he is beginning to fade away just like any pop star.

Ahh, the Clintons. Can't say I'm surprised to see yet another attack ad on the eve of a primary. Its funny though, because its basically a republican attack. She sides with McCain, panders like nobodies business, and has taken up Bush's policy of ignoring rational and logical advice from experts. I've never been a conspiracy theorist, but I'm beginning to think Hillary is a closet republican. Seriously… think this through. Three months of and 18.2 cent price cut on gas. Then add inflation, a few cents price increase for gas station profit, some more for increased demand because of a price cut, and a higher refinery price because of increased taxes on oil companies, and whallla… when the tax holiday is over, we're suddenly 50 cents higher than it was when we started. Way to be Hillary, and way to buy into her joke, 44% of likely democratic voters.

CNN is trying its best to get CLINTON elected – and they going to FAIL.

Dear CNN, you'd better get your salaries from Clinton as soon as possible as she is going to say goodbye without paying you. You'd better hurry up CNN, you have one day to get paid by her.

Will CNN reort on the Paul vs. Clinton trial for Finance Fraud. A backdoor deal claimed to be brokered by Bill Clinton?

CNN, why is thier starting to appear to be a bias in your reporting.
Your mantra has been "No Spin" "Unbias" "Up Front Politics".

Of course this would not be a major concern for the average American. But the question remains, if you have kowledge of this Trial, why have no one from he media attempted to debunk the rumor.

It is becomming clear that thier may be a media bias towards Mr. Obama.

At worst, it supports the belief that African American Men are always demonized in the media under a double standard.

Did the CNN staff take the oath as reporters to report the Truth, or has all of this come down to Special Interest Groups who hold major shares in the National Media, and are welding thier Political Lobbist influence and power, (The same influence and power Mr. Obama is attempting to put a stop to in Washington for the good of the American People) to move this election to favor Hillary Clinton.

Many of us can say, this is not the Hillary we new in the 90's, so what happen, " How to Win a Election through Nagative 101″ via the Media support.

Obama never said he was not a politician,he said he is different yhan the past politicians.Obama has lead in many ideas,just that the news networks refused to report and by time he got a chance to comment on them,Hillary would steal them and claim them as hers,just as she did with John McCains gas tax plan.

OBAMA has done great even when he is running against three entities.

He is Running against Former President Bill Clinton… (Bill has done more campeigning than Hillary in Pen. state and now in Indiana).
Obama is also running against the Media (CNN and other propanganda networks… By the way I believe the War was actually started by CNN and other Media to improve their ratings).
Obama is also running against the Republicans. It is amazing how some democrats don't see this. Hillary cannot win without the Black vote. Her plan is to use Obama to Heal the wounds letter, but it will not work… trust me.)
Finally he is running against Hillary Clinton. Haven't we had enough of this Clinton-Bush cycle.

Don Imus was taken off the radio for what?Rush Limbaugh calls for riots and bloodshed at the Dem Convention and no one says a word.

Hillary you know what it takes to fix AMERICA!

Hillary 2008!

It is a gimmick and a very bad one at that. We believe the experts along with Senator Obama. You cannot buy our votes for 3 cents a day.

Obama 08

We need real change in the criteria for "voting" in any election for the presidency". Here is my proposal, and I await your comments:

Only people with at least an AA degree from a community college should vote for the nominee. That is, we need only those who are "informed" about policy issues to vote.

We expect our president to be brilliant and learned, so should the voters.

more bitter comments form Obama Fans. Do you guys not have jobs? All day you flood the CNN Ticker, you worst then Ron paul supporters.

Mike, Bill, Joyce, Spencer, and other Clinton backers, Remember this: Obama is leading in every measure, which can only mean one thing. You are all supporting the loser!!!

Bright people don’t back losers.

I thought South Carolina voted already! CNN wake up you are giving bad press this morning

How many naive people will believe this BS from the Clintons once again? Unfortunately their are alot of naive people who will blindly follow the Clintons, even if it to the gates of hell.

All Cable network news channels will experience a viewers blackout starting May 15th until August 15th if they continue this hit job on the Black Community and Senator Obama.

Millions have already joined up. Help stop these racist attacks and join with real americans of all races, colors and creeds on May 15th.

The same experts everyone has been listening to in getting our economy where it is today!

GO HILLARY!

I'll take a temporary 18 cent break on fuel costs. I'll bet the truckers would be HAPPY to get a 24 cent break.

BARACK OBAMA IS A PHONEY.

I'm so sick of her lies. Oh sorry, I meant "misspeaks."

If Hillary wanted to really throw a low blow…she would tell the truth…

Obama is attacking her gas tax plan because he needs to distract people from his insane mentor. You know, the one that said Obama says whatever is politically needed at the time. The crazy guy that is ALWAYS honest about how he feels.

Desperation is a stinky cologne Hillary. What happened last time a person in power went against what the experts had to say?

Thank you Barack Obama for giving us an idea of the new way of doing politics. He is looking at the long run and not the quick "band-aid" fix. She is just pandering to get votes. It's too bad that Hillary supporters do not see this. They are SO set on voting against Barack for ANY reason that Hillary can feed them ANYTHING and they will bite. That saddens me…

Where is the DAILY coverage of Rev. Haggee? How come he doesn't get as much media attention as Rev. Wright did and still does?

OBAMA 08′ – YES WE CAN!

The Obama campaign are just PLAIN STUPID if they let Hillary ad go without a COUNTER AD.

I C.A.N.T. W.A.I.T. U.N.T.I.L. S.H.E. G.O.E.S. D.O.W.N. I.N. F.L.A.M.E.S.

Even if Hillary is off base with her gas tax cut, at least she's reaching out…..what is Obama saying? I haven't heard a word from him with any short term or long term fix…..

"His plan is to break away from our dependence on foreign oil, develop alternative sources of energy and make cars that are not gas hounds! He wants to fix the problem, not jut put a band-aid on it. "

"Ok, by then, I'll definitely be broke. I'd rather have $35 in my pocket than nothing at all!"

I won't vote for Clinton. She's as hawkish as McCain. I can't elect someone who lies so easily. W/ Clinton in office it will be business as usual. She will reinforce NAFTA and we will remain in Iraq. She will forget the blue collar worker as she did in NY after she got elected w/ the promise of jobs. Her healthcare will not get off the ground. She's already proven she can;t unite those around her healthcare plans.

She's McCain w/ less experience.

All these candidates can take their ideas and shove em. Be it democrat or republican, they are all so distance from the american people, it is hopeless. Here is my idea, write in candidates:

Dems write in:
Edwards\Romney

Edwards knows about spending money and Romney can run big business.

Republicans choice:
Chuck Norris/Glenn Beck '08

Cus we just want some people who make sense!

Hillary Clinton knows that her gas price proposal has no support in Congress. She knows that Bush will probably oppose it. And she knows that it just won't work, even though she chooses to ignore experts who tell her that.

So it looks like another deliberate fraud she is trying to pull on the voters. Like the Bosnia fraud.

How do I respond to those who bad mouth this guy who seems to offer a fresh new perspective.. who is NOt an insider and who does not succumb to the hype that many see in Mr.Clinton and his "agenda-bent" wife…How do I respond?…maybe with ..nothing to dignify their foolishness..

Hillary is not talking like a leader. A true leader does not resort to pandering and negative distortions. What Hillary is doing is called propaganda. Obama is strong enough to lead without relying on false messages. Hillary is not strong enough to lead on her own, and so her message is all propaganda. Because she is not a leader, she would not make a good president. NC and IN – please vote Obama.
O '08

Why would ANYONE vote for someone who thinks economists don't know anything(this may explain why her campaign is being run so poorly)and who finds if perfectly acceptable to OBLITERATE and entire country?
She is scary.

What has happened to Barack Obama? He has won the Democratic nomination for President thats what has happen to him, and he is very humbled by it.

Your article should read North Carolina not South…..

QUOTE from HILLARY's add:
"He is attacking Hillary’s plan to give you a break on gas prices because he doesn’t have one,"
_______________________________________________-
hahaha…how childish…he is not my friend because i have a candy and he doesn't

Now hillary paid thousands to put THAT on air ??? That's why she lacks in management. She spends on stupid things instead of Trying to have a REAL ADD that does not insult voters inteligence !

Why would i trust a woman that votes for the war without even reading the report that could allow her to make a good decision.
A woman who so carelessly sends other people kids to death, without even taking the time to read and know if it s relevant !
WHILE that same woman so knows how to protect her own child, that at 28,the young lady cant talk to media….and she had secret services to follow her at every dates in her teenage….

people wake up ! dont sale your vote for 30 dollars !

clinton is being absolutely ridiculous in promoting this "gas tax break" as anything but a help to HER! $30 savings … oh my! thx for the "plan" hillary! lol

Hillary is ABSSOLUTELY right. Give the WORKERS a Gasoline TAX break immediately.

Obama previously supported this-Now he is with the Washington Crowd. This is not CHANGE we can believe in. It is MORE of the same OLD politics!!

GO Hillary-Make Poloci EAT the PEOPLE's words!!

Here's what happened to Obama…..he has picked up 3 supers today (Free, Cryor, Glover)……any comments Clinton fans?

Interesting how easy it is for Hillary to trash Obama, a fellow democrat, disregarding the negative effects they could have on Obama once he wins the democratic nomination. Shows how completely selfish and self absorbed she is. Consumed with winning at any cost regardless of how the consequences of her arrogant and egocentric actions effect the american people. She would be a complete nightmare of a president!!!

"More “low road” attacks from Hillary Clinton," the ad's announcer states. "Now she’s pushing a “bogus” gas tax gimmick…Experts say it’ll just “boost oil industry profits.”

Well, I guess I shouldn't be surprised that the Clinton campaign is acting this way.

"He is attacking Hillary’s plan to give you a break on gas prices because he doesn’t have one," they lie, neglecting to mention Obama's $1000/family $500/individual gas tax credit proposal….

Tomorrow's primary will answer one thing – how many votes can be bought with a $30 payoff at the cost of infrastructure and the jobs necessary to build that infrastructure?

CNN – how about posting this?

Still no mention of Kalyn Free, superdelegate endorsing Senator Obama. She announced her endorsement this morning. Free is an at large member of the DNC and a member of the Choctaw Indian Nation in Oklahoma.
Instead the press focuses of negative campaign ads. No wonder politics rolls that way.

50 year old white Texan for Obama.

Wow, she thinks North Carolinians & Indianans are totally stupid! No wonder there's so much support for Obama there! He sees how detrimental this would be to the future economy, and she just wants to get into the white house by any means necessary!!!

Mark….Why Can't Obama close the deal? He and his campaign advisors have been running their mouths talking about how they were going to end if for Hillary months ago and she still keeps winning big states!

IT'S EVIDENT THAT PEOPLE ARE BEGINNING TO TAKE A 2ND LOOK AT OBAMA AND HAVE REALIZED THAT HE CAN'T BE TRUSTED WITH THE COUNTRY!

GO HILLARY!!! HILLARY 08!!!

"He is attacking Hillary’s plan to give you a break on gas prices because he doesn’t have one"

Brilliant, propose a plan / "solution" that makes a problem worse and attack your opponent because he doesn't have a plan. Actually, doing nothing is a better plan for this country. Hillary, how about a $1000 tax credit on Mother's Day to all mothers and another for all dads on Father's Day. That should close the deal, you haven't been able to close for months. Wait a minute, here I am suggesting $1000 tax credit when Hilaary has already determined 30 cents would do the trick – and I do mean trick.

more clinton pandering just before the voting.more lies.the 'clinton machine' going full-tilt,because they know it's over after barack's landslide victory ,in guam.hillary needed 69% of penns. and got 55%.in guam she got 49.9%.cnn's poll has her at 4 pts. ahead, in indiana with 48%.in nc.she's behind by 8 pts with 40%.that should make the 'supers' ,start flocking to support obama.i honestly think hillary will have to concede, by the end of the week.

Another Clinton Kitchen Sink.

Mike,

What do the Clinton's know about commandments? Or is anything "fair game" with interns in the Oval Office??

Hoosiers are delusional if they think $30 is going to give them a "break". Don't fall for the gimmicks!

Tired of the fighting,
Obama 08

Try Indiana and NORTH Carolina. Just a few months off.

Puzzling to me why CNN has ignored Obama picking up 8-9 more sperdelegates today to Clinton's one. If I'm not mistaken he got four in MD, three in IL, one in CA and one in OK.

Isn't that news? It is to me!

Sam says that Hillary is a fear-warmongering rootin tootin vermin and will blow Iran to smithereens if elected.

Indiana and South Carolina? Impressive CNN…

VOTERS PLEASE SEND LYING BIG MOUTH CLINTON HOME TO PENNSYLVANIA, ILLINOIS, ARKANSAS, NEW YORK, heck she'll say she was brought up in all the states to try to win votes

She is such a liar that she doesn't even know when she is telling the truth

American's send this slim bag home to where ever she came from!!!!

shame unto hillary for trying to fool folks that think about immediate solutions instead of long term. what happens when thousands lose thier jobs, she will be sitting on top of her $109 million sipping some vodka and smilling. what happen in new york with most people losing thier jobs. she can not manage her campaign how can she govern.

Check your notes…The primary is in NORTH Carolina.

High oil prices are caused in large part by both a weak dollar caused by our debt-financing of the war, and political instability in the Middle East, also caused by the war.

Since Hillary voted for the war, she is largely responsible for the high oil and thus gas prices.

If you want more of the same, including a continuation of Hillary's war, just keep supporting that lying flip-flopping Wal-Mart director with the impeached and disbarred husband and daughter who works for a hedge fund benefitting only the rich.

OBAMA = Typical DC Politician

Nothing but broken dreams

I thought the election was in North Carolina? But your lede says SOUTH Carolina. Tsk tsk.

Hillary Clinton 08!

It is North Carolina and Indiana not South Carolina – but wait is this CNN or FOX?

Hillary is not talking like a leader. A true leader does not resort to pandering and negative distortions. What Hillary is doing is called propaganda. Obama is strong enough to lead without relying on false messages. Hillary is not strong enough to lead on her own, and so her message is all propaganda. Because she is not a leader, she would not make a good president. NC and IN – please vote Obama.
O '08

barack sips tea with the royals – if anybody knew anything about market capitalism they'd know that the fuel prices WOULD decrease under a gas tax holiday, because the company with the lowest prices would get the most business – company's compete to offer a better deal you morons

clinton,u have sunk so low
to think i actually respected you

what has happened to obama…..he could have closed the deal last week ….the polls should him bouncing back from the rev. wright controversy…..and he could have put this thing to bed if hed just gone along with the gas tax holiday…..why give hillary an issue too run with?……and what harm would it realy do? ….other than improve his standing with the blue collar voters …and show him he cares…he still could have gone after the big oil companies "IF" he became president…..but now even if the super deligates make a HUGH error and give him the nomination….were toast in the general……

SV,

Since Obama's charisma is now fading and his truths are coming out with help of all media networks, now you call CNN Clinton News Network. Don't you remember when only twomonths ago, he was getting free ride from every media including CNN?? These is no chance that he would get my family's vote as he does not come up with any solutions of problems this nation is facing. Empty speeches don't work!!

Clearly a crappy idea Hilary has come up with. If people could not do their own maths i guess it would fly, but common on now?? I am not sure who she is trying to sell this bunch of bull to and who exactly will really buy that idea. She needs to just quit already. She might be a bit more of a telemarketer than Barack Obama, but then again we all know that fools with hot heads and a mouth flushing words and promises is in fact just what it is, the toilet effect. And we all know that nothing progressive or effective comes from this level. Barack is very intelligent and charismatic, his approach to the media has always been on a reasonable and intellectual level, he talks sense and not just focus on today, but on tomorrow. Hilary on the other hand constatly sound like she is trying to sell ice to an eskimo, she is at a point of desperation and will say any and everything she thinks people want to hear to get her elected…immature technic. Full of doo doo if you ask me…Use your god given intelligence people.

High oil prices are caused in large part by both a weak dollar caused by our debt-financing of the war, and political instability in the Middle East, also caused by the war.

Since Hillary voted for the war, she is largely responsible for the high oil and thus gas prices.

If you want more of the same, including a continuation of Hillary's war, just keep supporting that lying flip-flopping Wal-Mart director with the impeached and disbarred husband and daughter who works for a hedge fund benefitting only the rich.

Good to see the Clinton campaign is working hard in South Carolina. That will come in handy for tomorrow's primary in NORTH Carolina. Nice job.

May the best candidate wins ,
and SHE WILL……. t

the most I hear the candidates tallk about their plans if elected President, the more I like Hilary, she sound confident, prepared and ready to go….from day one, she amazes me. she is great.

Let's all hope that the good people of Indiana and North Carolina are not as gullible as Hillary takes them for.

No one in their right mind believes that this is a good idea. All the ecoomists have come out strongly against it.

Sounds like just another example of bad judgment and pandering by Team Clinton.

Furthermore, it shows a real disrespect for the voters or Indiana and North Carolina.

Wow, she thinks we're totally stupid! No wonder there's so much support for Obama here! He sees how detrimental this would be to the future economy, and she just wants to get into the white house!!!

Is it just me or Hillary turned to that crazy old lady that lives next door. I mean. This kind of ad makes me not want to voter for her if she became the nominee.

Continues to be pathetic and political pandering….

GO HILLARY!

He's a joke. it would be so bad for the US if Obama becomes President.

WAKE UP AMERICA, VOTE FOR HILLARY TOMORROW!

Wow! $28….our financial problems are solved. Give me a break Hillary. Look at the Gas prices! Look at the $/oil barrel. KEEP IT REAL. Vote OBAMA. Stop sweeping the problems under the rug, Hilllary.

Here's what has happened to Obama today:

" Kalyn Free, an at-large member of the Democratic National Committee, today announced that she supports Illinois Senator Barack Obama for the party’s presidential nomination."

"PolitickerMD reports that State Democratic Party Chairman Michael Cryor and Vice Chairwoman Lauren Dugas Glover will endorse Illinois Senator Barack Obama this afternoon."

This is news……why is CNN not reporting it?

Yeah Mike – I am sure you are a sweet angel that has never done a bad thing in your life…. especially break one of the 10 commandments.

GIVE ME A BREAK!

ITS OLD NEWS!

This woman (Hillary) and her campaign team members are really stupid people. I will wait to see if the NCand IN people will fall for this political gimmick to score point tomorrow. Americans are smarter than this. What a shame to see former first lady bring her self so low for a normination lost already even before PA primary. CNN pls. post this.
Obama 08……………………….YES WE CAN

Yeah, according the Huffington Post "Hillary Clinton will use the NUKE OPTION" TO GET THE DELEGATES!!!!! Good article. They are biased like MSNBC and CNN.

CNN,

Where is report that Omama got endorsement from 3 super delegates?

It is really really sad to me how this campaign has turned out. Hillary should have let this go when she lost 11 in a row. Instead she did and said whatever she could to let herself look " always right". Hillary you have destrouyed the Democrats (Bill) all by yourself.

Umm…I usually don't comment as I don't take pleasure in butting heads with one-dimensional Obamaheads or Clintonheads or even McCainheads, but the story says South Carolina instead of North Carolina.

Obama would not be in this race if the media did their jobs and reported on the Wright scandal sooner in the primary.

Fool you once, shame on Barack. Fool you twice, shame on you, Obama supporters.

Hillary '08

More Lies and Gimmicks from the Clinton camp…. The sad thing is, more people will vote for her because of the Lies and Gimmicks!

I wonder when the 3 am commercial will air in Indiana and North Carolina…. probably Prime Time tonite.

Does it strike anyone else as odd that Hillary's gas-tax relief plan is the same as that floated by a Republican who admits to knowing next to nothing about the economy? Aren't we supposed to be a different party, rather than johny-come-latelys to a Republican idea?

CNN… The primary is in "North" Carolina….

Obama is a joke – do your best to get this clown out the race

LOL!LOL! Hillary needs to be saving her canpaign money insteading of producining last minute ads…LOL!LOL!
After tomorrow,her financial support is going to dry up!!!! LOL!LOL!
How long does she think people are going to "back" a loser????
I understand she's fighting…but for what???? The nomination is out of reach for her!

Hillary is a GOP surrogate… oh wait, she is simply GOP– appealing to the xenophobic high school education vote

good luck, we're takin' over

She's brilliant. She's offering money to voters in exchange for their vote. And the best part is, it's not her money! It's the money allocated to rebuilding bridges, roads and other transportation means of travel… like the bridge that collapsed in Minnesota. Let's not forget that this will reduce the budget for rebuilding and maintaining these roads/bridges by 25-30% because of this gas holiday! And how does she intend to pay for this, well, when she's president, she'll TRY to tax the oil companies, like she TRIED to establish universal healthcare in 1993. And just like 1993, she'll fail and blame it on the republicans or anyone else but herself.

By far, Hillary Clinton is the greatest politician running in this presidential race.

Unfortunately, I'm VERY sick of politicians and the games they play to win our votes. I'm hoping Obama wins and if he doesn't than I hope McCain wins… at least both of them have integrity.

cant believe people and clinton voters are still buying into hillarys crap, so gullible.

One minute Hillary is talking unity around whoever gets the nomination and then pops up an article about a last minute ad attack.

Very, very scarey….

she's pitiful
.

Clinton is playing to the ignorance of the American voter. Indiana (and North Carolina)…don't fall for these games. I'm not saying $30 in your pocket is insignificant, but do you really think a program like this would signed into law? Added to that, ask any expert…economist or otherwise…and they will tell you that this plan makes no sense. Do you really think the oil companies are going to stand by and pay 18 cents on every gallon of gas? They would just raise their prices. This is political pandering at the lowest level…we deserve much better in a president. Let's get some integrity back in the White House…Barack Obama.

Hillary don't get confused when you say South Carolina. We never asked for a gas tax holiday. You got your North and South mixed up. We in the South don't want anything for a break if it will cost us more and pain later.

What we do in South Carolina to conserve high gas prices is either take the transit, city bus or car pool. Many people here don't have a problem for the high gas prices because we like to drive our own cars, trucks and Suv's.

Gas tax would be nice but Prez Bush have not said anythng backing your plan. So sorry to bust your bubbles but get the North straight and then Hollerrrrrrrr at the South.

See Ya

Obama 08

wow she is just agly. How is she going to look herself in miror.I think that even Bill will gain more empathy for his obsesive searching for afairs now we get to know what monster she is. Once not long ago i was her supporetr. Away with her .

You have to be kidding me?!? How can we heal this party when the Clinton camp is doing this. I want to be able to vote for them in case they steal the nomination. Stop making that impossible!!

I have written this same comment twice and it never gets posted.
why? OK once more. Hillary and McCain are offering something with this gas tax relief they can not possibly comply with. No senator can possibly jump over congress and change a federal tax! Not now! not ever!

Americans worry about gas price is real!! There were signals for the mortgage crisis before and the government and the economists ignored it till it became a monster. Same thing is true about gas price. We need to have a temporary solution (paid by oil companies) and a long term solution as proposed by Hillary Clinton. Failure to ignore will create another monster and our economy can not afford that anymore.

CLINTON CANNOT WIN MOST ELECTED DELEGATES. THIS IS WHAT WINS ELECTIONS.

THIS RACE IS ESSENTIALLY OVER BUT MEDIA LIKES TO MAKE IT SEEM CLOSE.

OBAMA HAS MORE SUPPORT FROM GOVERNORS, HOUS. REPRES. AND SENATORS.

OBAMA HAS MORE ELECTED DELEGATES AND MORE STATES AND TOTAL VOTES.

I DON'T SEE HOW THIS RACE IS CLOSE

Hillary proves once again that her 35 years of experience have taught her well how to play the political games that aren't serving the interests of America. She knows that pandering for votes works even when doing the right thing would be better in the long run. Barack Obama however will always do the right thing even if it is not politically expedient and/or bad politically. He prefers to take a longer view and look at what will serve America and the people better in the long run.

Clinton just wants votes to justify her belated white house bid.

Clinton= GOP

Our congress needs to get together to ammend our constitution so that the president only serves one 6 year term. That way we won't have to put up with this bull but every 6 years instead of 4.

She has become a Republican all over again,just like she started out in high school.She is the planets Cancer.

I KNEW IT!!!!!!! I KNEW IT!!!!!! I KNEW IT!!!!!! I KNEW IT!!!!!!!!!

We should officially name the day before primaries – "Kitchen Sink Day"

I knew she was going to pull something before the day was out.

SAD this depends on what pol you look at. One said that he has a 2 pint lead in Indiana. Stop the nonsense.

I think hillary wants to be mccains running mate.

HOOSIERS FOR OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT!!!

OBAMA 2008!!!

Just more evidence that Clinton will say or do anything to get elected. Obama is spot on with his stance on the gas tax issue. Hillary is catering to the oil companies with her proposal. If her idea gets implemented, people will continue to buy as much gas as they are now. And guess whose profits will not be affected at all?

We don't need to lower the price of gas, we need to lower the demand of gas. Sell your SUV! Don't drive so much!

It's Indiana and NORTH Carolina.

I think I will throw in my support with the last blogger to have the Communications Act reviewed. CNN's conduct is just plain dispicable. I am also throwing in my lot with Color of change (and before the ignorant begin to do the only thing they can – rant) Obama may not be the perfect candidate like Clinton who seemed to have fallen from heaven to save us all, but at least he isnt pandering to get votes.
What is sad is that he has received THREE endorsements today which are being reported everywhere BUT CNN. Even more I noticed on the weekend, the image left on the CNN site aaaalll weekedn was the Rev. Wright story….Clinton will get her turn….you'll see….

No surprise here…say anything to win Hillary Clinton. It worked for the Republicans in 2000 and 2004. That's what Hillary's experience is all about…gutter politics. Some voters think the Clinton years will return. Is Bill going to be watching over Hillary's shoulders every minute to share HIS experiences?

If the people of Indiana fall for this it's just tragic. This candidate is depending on people who won't think beyond an 18.4 percent gas tax that won't help in the short or long run. In the long run it will only cause higher gas prices. Indiana, please don't be deceived. Stop the "Misspeaking" on Tuesday.

Obama doesn't support it because he is collecting campaign finances from the oil companies.

This woman is starting to make me ill and CNN's constant bias as well…why do almost all posts begin with Clinton??

Fox News is actually less biased than you…

Better win big tomorrow Clinton machine. Oregon will go to Obama. We value honesty, integrity, common courtesy and diplomacy….none of which you have an ounce of.

Man does she think the voters are DUMB. No other reason for ads like this.

I beleive him , if I were an american I would sure trust him over Hilary , she comes across to me as that she seems to care more about winning than the country I bet she already hired the moving van for her move to the white house………………….lets hope she can get her money back .Go Obama!

Frankly, Clinton scares the hell out of me. She's already threatening Iran with annilization (so you can't blame them for throwing it back at us); whining about Obama………she has NO RECORD of anything getting accomplished that she started "for US". And I honestly can't even imagine Bill back in the White House again under ANY circumstances. The Democrats are shooting themselves in the foot and this country BETTER start getting this straightened out before they fall for all this bleeding "verbage" that's being thrown at us. Come on! We're smarter than this!!

INDIANA – WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!! Don'r buy into the pandering. It is clear that she doesn't care at all about anything but herseflf – she doesn't care about you or how much you pay at the pump.

She is dishonest and desparate!

A vote for her is vote to destroy the Democratic Party!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Phillip Bunn calling me a dangerous fool and many other Obama supporters recent posts about the Clinton's have proved my point. They will attempt to seize power by any means, no holds barred. Read their postings for yourself. and get a glimpse into their souls. It's getting uglier every day.

Hillary must fight back and fight hard.

It will be interesting to see who is right. Hillary believes there is a reason politics hasn't changed, becuase it works for the politician. Obama believes people no longer want the old politics and are ready for real change, like he showed when he didn't follow Hillary, who followed McCain, in order to pander up some votes with a plan that would cost far more than it would save in actual dollars and jobs. For those who would vote for someone for an empty promise of 30 cents a day for 90 days, I'll buy your vote for 31 cents? Hey, every penny counts, right? Wake up people! Don't be puppets of old style politics. We have a real choice now – Obama 08

Yep…that's Hillary for ya. Same ole Washington politics. He adds should start reading "don't vote for Barack Obama because he's black." Hey, if were going to make it race issue…might as well do it right. I'll vote for McSame if she get's the Dem. Nomination. I'll take my chances.

This is why the superdelgates should not support Hillary. She knows, and several experts has stated that this gas tax is not in the best interest of the America people. I am from Kentucky and her gas tax holiday does not excite me at all. I just hope the people in Indiana and North Carolina do not fall for this gimmick just to get votes. I really like Hillary, but she has really made me look at her in a different light. Tell me why Hillary, why……

Do people really fall for this stuff? I can't even believe the media acts like she's still in the race. At this point the only way she could win is if the SD's hand it to her–and if the DNC thinks they're broke now–watch what happens if they do that!

Yeah, let the stupid people remember a vote for Obama is a vote for Jeramiah Wright. This election will only expose how many people will believe biased MSM (CNN is a part of) instead of digging for the truth themselves. Why is it that republicans and Hillary do so well with the less educated?

What a mean desperate miserable lady Hillary Clinton is!

She'll never be President because over half the nation doesn't like her and even more know she's a liar!

Didn't Bill open up the Strategic reserves while president to ease the cost at the pump? Would that work again?

Nice one CNN. I'm sure you think we're all just a bunch of rednecks down here in the Carolinas, but there is a BIG difference between North Carolina and South Carolina.

The primary tomorrow is in NORTH Carolina and we'll be happy to deliver this state for Obama.

This is exactly the kind of thing that has turned me off from HRC. Instead of making her case for why the suspension of the gas tax would be beneficial, she simply attacks Obama for having a more economically responsible view. This is what she has been reduced to and frankly I find it pathetic.

Obama is making a big mistake going against Hillary's gas tax holiday plan. Sure the plan may not be perfect, but it shows the country that Hillary is the one most concerned with doing everything she can to help Americans who are struggling now. If Obama doesn't like the plan, then he needs to offer an alternative or do something to show lower income Americans that he cares as much as Hillary does about their situations. Right now he's coming off as much more elite and the voters can sense it.

What is wrong with this woman? The price of oil went up to $120 a barrel. Do you not think maybe someone was listening to Hillary Clinton when she proposed the tax break???

I also just read on the Huffington Post that in 2005 she agreed with John McCain in keeping our troops in Iraq. I am really beginning to think that she really is a Republican

Wow, she thinks we're totally stupid! No wonder there's so much support for Obama here! He sees how detrimental this would be to the future economy, and she just wants to get into the white house!!!

What more can one expect from the Queen of Pander!!! No wonder so many people are cynical about politicians!

I can stand Hillary!!!!!

Hillary, you can voice your opposition to Barack's stance and tout your plan as any candidate should. However, to blatantly lie and say he does not have a plan is more of the same negative politics we are sick of seeing. To say that Obama is siding with the oil companies and not the hard working voters is more election time lying. She may be gaining in the polls by using these tactics, but she has lost my respect.

Ms "I'll do anything to win", strikes again.

Hopefully, the voters are smarter than the average 5th grader.

You mean "North Carolina," not "South," right CNN?

clinton and her supports are hatefull people …….hillary is the Anti Christ …….. believe me SHE IS

Sorry Hillary, you FAIL again!!!!

if you think Obama is the only one who opposes your "Tax Plan" think again. Even your own supporters will not come to your rescue on this.

How can anyone in there right mind be opposed to this. I would love help at the pump even if it is a few penny's. People come on andwake up you have to get started some-where, and why not do this and let the oil companies carry the burden for a few months. If someone came up to you on the street and gave you $5. would you say no because of the economist would like the idea, NO you would take it and say Thank You and thank to yourself man I wish that would happen again.

Obama Supporter

I can’t believe that we have that many uneducated people in the US. No wonder why they believe any thing Clinton say idiots. Only killing the party no way she can make it and increasing the numbers of uneducated is only delaying the process

Another kitchen-sink strategy by Ms. Hillary Clinton. How can the party unite with this kind of tactic in November? The more she throws the sink, the more the American People don’t like her; and the more the people don’t like her the more the people will stay home in November.

I hope all of those voting in primaries tomorrow put a higher value on his/her vote than $28.00.

Wow.

You must be kidding. She can't be serious with this ad considering all the publicity the idea has gotten showing it to be a ridicuous idea.

And, Congress has basically told her to take a hike (which will probably happen a lot if she were to get into the White House). Congress knows better.

More Clintonomic delusion and a pathetic attempt to buy votes.

This woman is absoultely pathetic!

Not only will she do and say anything to win but she's setting up the American People for failure.

Hillary Clinton, Do and Say Anything '08 !

Just when we've thought we've reached the bottom, let's go lower….. This woman has issues. Can't wait until she's out of this race.

I despise this lady; I absolutely despise her. Sen. Clinton is so terrible, she gives "Politics" a dirty name. In fact, i don't know that in good conscience i could vote for her in the general election should she win the nomination.

his solution is to tell people the truth that there is no quick fix to this problem instead of pretending there is and in the process making the situation worse. Its called leadership

So CNN doesn't want to report that even Clinton's advisors don't think this is much of a real solution for anything but her campaign. Why doesn't CNN report what Michael Bloomberg thinks of her plan? If she doens't respect the ideas of economists, how is she going to do anything productive for this country? Please, Indiana, put this person behind us and get behind Barack! Real soultions!

Hillary Clinton is a fighter and a uniter..she will lead this country in a positve ,upbeat direction…hillaryclinton.com

More Clinton attack ads and gimmicks to lie to the American people and try to stir up votes. Its truly unfortunate for the "Obliterator". If you can't Win them, Nuke em…

Whoa! You're making me dizzy, my head is SPINNING! I believe Obama says the gas tax holiday would increase profits for oil companies, and since he is speaking against it how can that be construed as supporting oil companies? HRC is the one who's working for big oil if anyone is.

What happened is that he listen to ecomist and you don't! Which maks him better than you!

I hope that since you are not Hillary Clinton biased…that you will hold her accountable for her misleading ad? Oh yeah….I forgot….will never happen….because you do 24/7 Hillary positive coverage, now that Rev. Wright is thankfully no longer a media obsession~!! Desperate Hillary…..just doesn't get it when a solid majority of the public thinks this gas-tax holiday is not a sound idea~~Maybe CNN should enlighten her, the next time you pat her on the back……

hillary that is a low blow… thats why i hate you…. you are trying to play mind games on the weak minded americans…

you dont deserve to be president…

Obama is a man of truth and integrity and he is telling the truth about the gas tax… while you are trying to get votes

Obama 08

Interesting to see how far the Clintons go to get more power

She's pathetic, and will say anything and do anything to get a vote. Sadly, according to the polls, Indiana's buying it.

Typical Hillary…..
Lying to the people and makign it seem like she is doing something.

North* Carolina. Nice copy checking.

Why can't hillary close the deal?

So when will Hillary's plan to pay for this plan be implemented?
Does she REALLY think Bush will allow Oil companies to foot the bill for this? So, her plan is no different then McCain's except she is
coating hers with a little more fantasy.
Don't the voters of Indiana and NC feel a little bit of resentment towards this woman who thinks they are dumb enough to fall for this? I hope when they vote they will let her know that they are not falling for her sugar coated pandering.

More than 60 percent of voters in the poll said that Mrs. Clinton said what people wanted to hear, rather than what she believed.

"What has happened to Barack Obama?"

Well, 3 things:

1) He has been defiled by a nasty stop-at-nothing campaign but has come through the other side and is still winning.

2) He has received two more superdelegates today (from MD) while you picked up a Nascar driver.

3) He has become the all-but certain Democratic nominee for the office of President without lowering his standards or impugning his own integrity, besting another candidate who was the odds-on-favorite and had a commanding lead when the race started.

I'd say that about sums it up.

Hillary you can Take YOU GAS TAX HOLIDAY AND GO TO CHINA WITH IT!!!!!!!!! YOU ALREADY SOLD US OUT TO THEM YOU AND SLICK WILLY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and what about the opinion of economists?

Clinton can never win !!!!! Shame on her and her suppoters to be so negative all the time.

OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT !

What happened to Obama? CNN (Clinton Network News) and the rest of the MSM are trying to Swiftboat him! That's what. I'm not stupid enough to sell my vote for $30 worth of gasoline. Shameless pandering Hillary!!

The experts state that Senator Obama's gas tax plan is better than
Hillary's. The superdelgates seem to think so also, seeing that they are
now switching to him instead of her.

Yes We Can.

First of all. It is not Hillary's idea, It is John McLame's idea. Hillary just stole it like she does everything else. Second, Obama attacked the idea because it is a silly political gimmick that insults the intelligence of almost everybody (except Hillary supporters).

Kitchen Sink.

Thats all I gotta say.

What happened is that he is about to be the Democratic nominee for president!

To all of you voters voting for Hillary Clinton and her cronies, go to "you tube" and type "Mickey Kantor" and you will get a clear picture as to what the Hillary campaign thinks about you. We have an obligation to elect the more qualified candidate and Hillary has not transcended gender the way Barack Obama has transcended race.
"What good fortune for those in power that people do not think"
-Adolf Hitler

She will stop at nothing. Cynical, pandering nonsense like this. Outright lies. She's the perfect president for Dumberica.

Her counter is dumb, I would rather hold out for a long term solution than a quick fix. but it is evident that she is siding with the Republicans on this issue, Iraq, Iran and everything else.

What has happened to Barack Obama? He didn't jump on the Pander Express with Hillary and McCain, and she just can't figure out why not. It is apparently inconceivable to her that someone running for office wouldn't jump on a meaningless proposal just to attract a few votes just before a primary. Barack is right, it is time for a new kind of politics.

He does have a plan, but it does not include a "vacation" which would end up doing more harm than good. His plan is to break away from our dependence on foreign oil, develop alternative sources of energy and make cars that are not gas hounds! He wants to fix the problem, not jut put a band-aid on it. The Clinton camp spins that into doing nothing. Outrageous!

Way to go Hillary. You are the better Candidate. Count the votes in Michigan and Florida, Obama chose to remove his name in Michigan, his fault, no one elses. Count them as is. Don't steal the election from Hillary.

Clinton stated in 2005: 'I Agree With McCain' On Long-Term Iraq Presence." Here is the rest:

Three years ago, during an appearance on CBS, Sen. Hillary Clinton stated that she agreed with the overarching premise of John McCain's Iraq policy: that America's commitment to the war shouldn't be based on time frames but rather the level of troop casualties. She even cited, as McCain now regularly does, that the United States would be well suited to follow a model for troop presence based on South Korea, Japan, or Germany.

"Senator McCain made the point earlier today, which I agree with (says Hillary), and that is, it's not so much a question of time when it comes to American military presence for the average American; I include myself in this. But it is a question of casualties," said Clinton. "We don't want to see our young men and women dying and suffering these grievous injuries that so many of them have. We've been in South Korea for 50-plus years. We've been in Europe for 50-plus. We're still in Okinawa with respect to protection there coming out of World War II."

Is this who we want for President?

CNN=Clintons News Network.

No news about the new endorsement obama got today.
You guys come up with news about clinton's dairy and her endorsement of Indy's racer which doesnt count.

Kick his butt all the way back to Chicago and his Rev. Wright, Hillary.

He is now exposed as another one of those typical politicians he claims abhore. How could he change Washington (it is really Bush that we need to change and his cohorts) when he wimps out of just about everything?

My biggest concern – he hasn't really taken a lead on any issue. Even McCain offered something, is thinking of something, a way to solve this mess. What has he offered apart from reacting to Edwards, Hilary and McCain – worse tweaking their ideas and presenting them as his own?

Forget about the other side issues, he is lacking this basic but vital component to be President. Has he presented one original idea?
Didn't he vote for Cheney's energy bill?

Yeah and both my husband and myself work in road construction, Willyou help me get a job the way you help New Yorkers get jobs. Clinton cannot even tax the oil companies profits, she's not President. We all know if the gas tax holiday goes thru, oil companies will just raise the price of gas.

Why doesn't Obama just countered the Clinton Ad with one of his own talking about Hillary's tendency to pander for votes and her vote against raising car fuel mileage standards in the 2005 Energy Bill?

You go girl…………….

The Economists know NOTHING about the Economy. Hillary has the right answers!

McCain/Clinton '08

I wonder how many times Obama had to tell his kids not to repeat his pastor's cuss words and derogatory words?

Did Obama have to tell his kids it is ok for the pastor to say such things but not anyone else?

I guess Obama's church believes in only 9 of the 10 commandments. The 10th one about taking God's name in vain must have been just a suggestion.

DEMOCRATS UNITE, WE CANNOT AFFORD ANOTHER 8 YEARS OF REPUBLICAN NONSENSE!!!!

WE CANNOT LET MCCAIN KEEP GETTING A FREE RIDES, HAS ANYONE SEEN ALL HIS LATESTS GAFFES, INCLUDING GETTING INTRODUCES BY A HEALTH LOBBYISTS, AND HAVING 2 LOBBYISTS WORK ON HIS CAMPAIGN

PS: CLINTON V. PAUL!!!!!!!!

DEMOCRATS IN 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
