Hillary supporters I was willing to vote for if she was the nominee at first but all this race-baiting, greed, and powertripping she is on has made me change my mine.

Also do you think you Mcsame Dems will try to ruin Baraks chances in Nov. and think that everyone will just forget about it if Hillary tries to run in 2012. Yeah right. She will not only have so many Republicans lining up to vote against her but all the Baraks supporters will come out in droves to make sure she will never win another election. She wont even be able to win a potatoe sack race let alone become the President of the US. Karma comes back 10x over for people like Hillary.

John McCain will OVERTURN ROE v WADE.

I don't care who wins the Democratic nomination, and neither should you.

No matter who the Democrats put up against McCain, WE MUST vote for them.

We absolutely CANNOT allow McCain to appoint judges that will overturn Roe v Wade.

You may not realize it yet, but THIS is THE MOST IMPORTANT issue in this entire election.

VOTE DEMOCRAT NO MATTER WHAT!

Is it time to dust off the old "Draft Wesley Clark" movement? Could be a very good choice for VP.

I agree with ted if hillary become vp her and bill will try to take over the white house. so i agree with ted it would not be a good idea for hillary to become vp. we are looking for change

Oops. Reverse what he said: "if we had real leadership — as we do with Barack Obama — in the number-two spot…"

The party Beards don't think Hillary would be a good leader.

I agree.

To poster Carmon - above!

I agree! It won't do Hillary any good to try and run for 2012 - number one Obama will beat her again and as of today - Hillary has managed to turn off even more people to the point that they can't even stand Bill Clinton anymore!

Go Obama!

Thank God! What a disaster he would be……………

HILLARY BY HER TOTAL LACK OF EVEN MINIMAL

ETHICS HAS MADE HERSELF COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT.

why, because he's probably expecting he will be the one for VP spot

I guess Kennedy is making his bid for Vice President?!?

Didn't Obama want to end Washington dynasties?
What are the Kennedy's?
Hypocrite!
And Kennedy back Obama against the will of the people in his state - 2-for-1 hypocrite event!

If you are keeping track of the lies, the last one was where he said he was not campaigning in the government building you are not allowed to campaign in, where he was campaigning.

He does about one lie and/or hypocrite event per day.

"Nobler aspirations"? That is a diss to Hillary and her supporters. Kennedy should remind himself that while he personally may not be behind Clinton, millions of Americans have supported her. Love her or hate her, she has also brought many Democrats to the polls that will be needed by the Democratic nominee, whoever he or she may be.

Ted Kennedy needs to mind his own business. I'm tired of all these people putting down Mrs. Clinton, especially Jack Cafferty.

Kennedy is still on the sauce and he has always hated the CLintons. This is the same man who got hoodwinked by Bush and his education bill. With friends like him who needs enemies.

Teddy, should know. he has pulled a lot of crap in his day but couldn't make the White House. His brother got it through a lot of wheeling and dealing (on national TV no less).

YOU CAN PROBABLY GET $5. PER MONTH FROM US

IF YOU CAN KEEP HER OUT OF OUR SIGHT.

SHE HAS MADE IT HARDER FOR ANY WOMAN TO

RUN FOR THE HIGHEST OFFICE IN THE LAND.

AT FIRST ALL OF US SUPPORTED HER.

"The nobler aspirations of Americans???" What the hell is that?

Oh…I know, complete embrace of the platform of the American Socialist Party.

No thanks–not my ideal–and I pray that a majority of Americans feel the same way.

Ted Kennedy toooo old

Obamas arrogans is not a quality regarding foreign politics. His insulting style and supercilious smile will make foreign leaders hesitate and distrust his abilities and intentions. Sorry for my bad English!

Ouch! He just said that HRC doesn't represent "real leadership."

I support Obama, but stop slamming HRC!!!

Personally, I would like to see a woman on Barack's ticket as the VP, like te governor from Kansas (I believe). I am just not ready to concede that spot to Hillary right now. If she were to begin to publicly make some overtures to Barack and his supporters, I may warm up to the idea. Right now, the nerves are too raw to support Barack with her on the ticket.

Carmon

I would refer you to your candidates supporters remarks on this very website, and then ask you "whuh?"

Not being for Obama does not make me or anybody else a racist. The best man at my wedding (and my best friend for many years) was black. I haven't asked him who he is voting for, he hasn't offered, but I can gaurantee you, he will respect my position, whether or not he agrees with it. As will I, his. But some of Obama's folks really do make me question my party. I wish there was a middle party, lord do I wish there was a middle ground party.

I am confident that Sen. Obama will pick the best person to be his VP and I am willing to bet my next pay check that it WILL NOT be hillary clinton….

Born and raised in Boston and big Kennedy supporter all my life.

TED SHUT UP!

This Dem is voting McCain in November

Democrats are a Joke.

President Obama ? God help us all

And who cares?? You talk about the same old establishment political people… that'd be the Kennedy's. Are they really still relevant?
This guy has got to retire. He's milked his days from our taxes for decades.

Obama change = Kennedy and Kerry (same ole, same ole)

Obama all the way!!! I'm a true democrat that's why I will vote for OBAMA!!

Kennedy saying American voters are looking for someone with "nobler aspirations" than Clinton is political code for calling the Clintons lowlifes.

What an old sourpuss! A joint ticket is most likely the only way to go, otherwise thousands — perhaps millions — of people will not be voting for a democratic candidate.

Like himself? A drunk "ladykiller"? Lucky Bill - he was spared the suffering of those pointless conversations

Carmon,

I think that you have your facts confused. The Obama campaign used race as an issue in NC.

|||||||||||

HILLARY = SORE LOSER!!!

Thanks Kennedy - Why speak with that guy!!!! You had a shouting match and he thought you were crazy for going with Obama…….I think Bill is probably on the bottle….lol.

Ted Kennedy is a Clinton hater. Everybody knows that.

Kennedy also said that he had not spoken with former President Bill Clinton since endorsing Barack Obama.

Why should he? Bill's wife is a loser!! She's divisive and haughty and that's not what this country needs!

If Obama choose Clinton, it will contradict the principle of his campaign message for change. She is a Washinton insider and represents old politics. She had proved that through her vicious negative campaign, so it's a big NO. Period.

Ted. It's too late to change your mind. You have sunk this ship.

That's because Hillary Clinton isn't liberal enough for him (never thought I'd say that). Senator Kennedy is a disgrace to John and Bobby's legacy.

Ted go back to the BAR, that's where you belong

Love the wes clark suggestion. that would be a very strong choice. as would sen. sherrod brown.

His Vp pick will be a black man as he is…You know its the truth……..

If Hillary stills nomination and her or McCain becomes president I fear the United States will have another terrorist us attack against us.

Obama is the only one that can save us.

Obama 08!!!

Sit down fat man…

Jim Webb, governor of Virginia ,and a former republican could be an excellent choice for VP. The dems would win VA, a red state ,and would get the support of the blue collar whites. He was in the military so the rewards would be huge.

Oh shut up Kennedy I live in New England and no one can stand you or Kerry. Your state will probably go RED.

Go Ted!

If people are asking, Is he dissing Hillary? then they just don't see what I see in Hillary. She is not in my opinion a leader of the same caliber as Obama. Somebody like Edwards as VP, somebody we can trust, would be ideal, but let the DNC decide, as long as they don't decide on Hillary. She would ruin the mix.

Hillary is out. Out! Really out.

So, Obama is sending out his surrogates to attack Hillary today. Wake up people, Obama is just another politican, and a hypocrite as well.

Why would anyone listen to that slease-ball. Obama is above slease then why does he hange with Ted Kennedy. If "elections are about the future - not the past" then why constantly compare Obama to Kennedy and MLK? Tell Ted to shut the hell up and sit down!

Janet Napolitano ! Perfect VP. I would miss her here in AZ but she really is a great Governor. And she was one of the first to endorse Obama.
Smart smart lady.
By the way Elisabeth,
Self confidence, intelligence and integrity do not equal arrogance
(better go back to school and learn to spell)

Can Nancy Peloski run as Obama's running mate? She is a powerful woman who can stand on her own not on her husbands history or presidency. How about Hillary supporters?

of course we can't have a liar on a ticket of honor.she's the type of politician,we're trying to get rid of.she's too much like mccain.

It would be a REALLY bad idea to put Billary on the ticket. You'll see how fast the republicans pull out all kinds of dirt if that happens. The Clintons have too much baggage and WILL cost the democrats the presidency.

We need to rally behind our new democratic nominee and stop being so childish. We all know that if McSame gets into office get ready to stand in bread lines!

LEAVE Mrs. CLINTON! Why is it that "people" can't see true talent & experience when it's right before their eyes?
She is what America needs right now.A women with balls.

This guy knows how to waterboard,Just ask anyone that knew Mary Joe.

I would not vote for Obama if he picks up Hillary as VP or even considers her for a Cabinet post. She needs to be sent packing home. Period

Whites must face the facts: Blacks can use race but Whites can't. Rev Sharpton can stand up and belittle Hillary Clinton but NO ONE can say a frickin thing against St. Barack Obama.

Whites have no race cards only Blacks do.

I am so very proud of my White brothers and sisters that see beyond race and color. God Bless them they are the trure American Patriots.

NO JOINT TICKET!! She has proven she can't be trusted. NO NO NO!!!

I will DEFINITELY stay home if he lets her run as VP. She is a backstabbing *rhymes with a halloween costume she likely has*.

NO WAY!!

She will only try to sabotage him. Besides, she didn't want it then, why does she want it now. Give up. Let someone else be the first woman president. She blew it!

Obama O-8! UNLESS he brings Hillary on board…NO NO NO!!

Ted Kennedy IS the old politics that Obama is trying to get rid of!

How can he of all people talk about "nobler aspirations."

The American people still haven't forgotten about his DUI accident in which he let his friend drown. He really shows leadership, right!

knowing what hillary is willing to do to get to the presidency… why would he make her his VP….

and then for the next 4-8 years need a Taster every time she offers him a cup of coffee or stick of gum!!!!

(c'mon cnn… you KNOW ITS FUNNY!!!)

post this..

If Barak pick Hillary as his VP, I will never blog in support of him again.

Obama/Anybody but Hillary

Ted is right on target this time. I give him kudos for standing against the Clinton political machine. I admire him more than ever. For every democrat that threatens to vote for MCain there will be an independent or republican vote switch. I just read an e-mail from a hard core republican who is voting democrat for the first time. I see many e-mails like that.
Jim Webb, governor of VA would be an escellent VP. He was a republican once, with military service, and it would put VA into play this election. With him and Obama, they would be unstoppable.

John F. Kennedy almost started a third World War.

Obama dodged the Army! yep, a real patriot!! what a loser!

Obama should be able to pick his running mate not have it forced on him!

Is it me…or does Kennedy hate the Clintons? Maybe he hates that they took over the party that he thinks his family owns?

i would like to see a woman to be in oval office.
However, Hillary kept going negative really turned me off.
I want to see a candidate (male or female, gay or straight, white, black or yellow) with more resilient temperament to be elected as US president.

Kennedy was a "lady killer" if you get my DRIFT. He left her there in the car and covered his butt. Obama supporters or followers, are most racist bunch of people I've ever come across. If that is who his followers are, MAN GET HIM OUT OF THE OFFICE. No way do we need a racist as President. Obama's done enough damage already to this country.

The Clintons think that they are entitled to the presidency. No more Bush-Clinton dynasty, nada!

Like Kennedy even matters…………

ToMaria - Obama is exactly what foreign countries and governments want . Do your homework. I can add my two cents as I have duel citizenship and spend much time in Canada and Europe.

Obama is a very intelligent man. He is not going to ask her to be the VP. Why are people concern about a joint ticket with Hillary. This is never going the happen and it shouldn't.

I agree with Ted. She is not the answer for VP. I like Ed Rendell from PA. He could deliver PA and he is a political machine. Clark would not be that bad of choice either.

Sen. Kennedy…let's wait till the primaries are over….BO will get to select his Veep after that…

Jim in houston…I agree with you…Wes Clark would be a good choice I think…..

Hold on…..

Obama has not won yet.

Hillary is still fighting!

Hillary 08

Im with you. Jim Webb is the obvious choice for president.

Hillary was no war hero..though she did manage to catch bullets with her teeth while in Bosnia. She was the first first lady to actually catch a sniper bullet with her teeth so she knows foriegn policy.

I am from California , all my relatives said if Hillary does not win the nomination they will all vote for McCain come GE….and so am I……Sorry but Obama will not get my vote at all…I am not a racist and I hate it when they accuse you of being racist just because you do not want to vote for Obama..OBAMA LIES!!!!!! GO HILLARY!!!!!

No HIllary for VP, Barack would have to sleep with one eye open!

It appears that Kennedy is speaking for Obama. This is exactly the kind of leadership will will have with Barack. He ulimately will not be in control.

Great people like Bloomberg are available to be Obama's VP. Why worry about a rival who does not want to pull out gracefully?

Ted you are absolutely right as bad company corrupt good mind.

TED WHO?? Oh the senator that didn't bring New Hampshire to Obama. WORTHLESS!!!

Ah, my heart is calm now, and my soul is pleased to hear the nice comment made by Capt. Smash. God bless you too Capt. Smash.

I am a Hillary supporter and I dont like this fat old hypocrite but I have to agree with him!!! NO OBAMA/HILLARY TICKET PLLEEEAAASE!! HILLARY YOU'RE TOO GOOD FOR #2

If Teddy Kennedy wanted to make his bid he would have done so a long time ago, he is just speaking the truth. I would love to see a woman on Obama's ticket, but not Hillary. She has proved time and time again she is looking out for her and Bill, not the american people.

Shut your BIG MOUTH,

I want vote if her name is not on the ticket

So we have 50% of the party going for Obama and 50% for Clinton. With my understanding thats 100% of the party if they do a joint ticket.

Nobler aspirations? You can have him.

Hillary isn't an option for Obama. It would have been a bad fit given his platform of 'say know to old Washington' a month ago, but after she went negative its not even an option anymore.

VP: Mark Warner…I think is Obama's perfect fit.
…southern Democrat
…former Governor
…brings a pretty big state with him
…legitimate foreign policy connections
…not knee deep in Washington politics
…

Really ….everyone is talking about Sen Obama's running mate for the General Election while Sen Clinton is still running in the Primaries. There is something wrong with this picture. Maybe we'll all wake up soon and this would be all over.

Maybe Kennedy should offer Obama a ride over a bridge for a beer to give him the bad news Ombama my black friend, Your unelectable

Guess the election is already over, all hail President McCain.

Did anyone really think Obama would be electable in general election? Instead of winning the election, Democrats stand to lose even more states with nominee Obama.

How sad Democrats already forgot about the lesson of George McGovern and the consequence of nominating the unelectable. It takes a blown election to remind that painful lesson once again.

I hope Democrats go through primary reform after this year's blown election. Back to "Winner takes all" formula, no more superdelegates. When Republicans keep winning elections and democrats keep losing, Democrats must learn from Republicans and adapt their way of political nomination process.

Clinton supporters time for a new party. lets leave

Someone tell the Gimmick Candidate Carl Rove is on the phone, he has something to tell her.

From what I heard, the GOP dumped Hillary after Tuesday. They thanked her for her hard work and how she followed their every instruction but they declined her membership application to the GOP party, they called her a JUDAS

Hillary Clinton, The Gimmick candidate
Bill and Hillary, The Gimmick Family
Do and Say Anything "08

I don't understand. You approve a comment saying that Kennedy should die, but don't post my harmless comment?

HILLARY CLINTON WILL WIN THE POPULAR VOTE. THE BACKLASH AGAINST OBAMA HAS JUST STARTED.
MCCAIN AND THE GOP ARE JUST STARTING THE FIRE UNDER OBAMA'S PLATFORM . THE BIGGIES WILL COME SOON AS THE PRIMARIES END.

KENNEDY- SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HILLARY WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!

Who is gonna vote for you anyway, Mr. Kennedy?????????

Hillary '08

Has the Gimmick Candidate announced she just met with David Blaine and he showed her how to levitate which qualifies her to the nomination yet?

Hillary Clinton, The Gimmick candidate
Bill and Hillary, The Gimmick Family
Do and Say Anything "08

BTW, you can be sure Hillary will be back in 2012. Obama won't be.

Obama only won because the dnc didnt allow MI and FL to vote. you weak obamabots

Hillary has ruined her chances with her Kitchen Strategy campaign.

Is that the floodgates of McCain Democrats I hear opening?

Americans United for McCain '08

Ouuch!

How many times can a person get thrown under the bus!

I guess Hillary will soon get that 3:00 AM phone call from the last superdelegate telling her they are switching to Obama!

HC has proven to be unworthy of VP consideration from anyone !She's not trustworthy ,a proven deliberate liar & has too much "Bill baggage" (specifically his womanizing) that probably will resurface . Her behavior in the last 6 mos suggest high probability of sabotage of any & every agenda. She is not a tem player or a person of high character.Ireally feel that staying in such an abusive (Bill's countless highly profiled to the world extra-marital affairs) has not been good for her.

Come rain or shine Hillary will secure the nomination. I'm black and yes I support Hillary because I know she has what it takes to turn the economy around (experience, husband). Obama with all his charisma for some reason I' can't trust. I promise you that democrats will loose this election if they nominate Obama, and there will be such cry in America that the democratic party will break.
I however remain confident that Hillary will win despite all the noise and being outspent and maltreated by the media.

Hillary at the top of the ticket, or my vote is going for McCain. Barack as VP is optional at this point.

Hillary 08 or McCain.

What a loser. didn't obama lose his home state?

Obama - Kennedy ticket?

Hello McCain it looks like you will be the choice of the people for President. How can the Democrates win after all they are not for the people. Wake up America how what is the controled democrate Senate doing for the average worker. I believe that the Republicans will do a better job.

Is there anybody out there who has been viciously attacked that would want to be in harms way of that same attacker. I don't thinks so. God Bless Hillary but she did herself in.

Good call senator..

We don't want no stinkin' old white woman as VP. We are tired of the same old Washington players.

Old Man McCain has been playing the game longer than anyone alive.
No Hillary for VP. Make her CZAR of poor, uneducated, working……uh, hard working white folk.

The rest of us are just too lazy.

No way to HRC!!!

Just say no!

Jim Webb changes pollitical parties more than West Virginia woodsmen change their underwear. Most Republicans consider him to be worthless.

Hey, you all have not posted any of my comments. What's up? You are all Obama supporters also. I'm tired of CNN. Fox News here I come. This place is pathetic.

I am reading all this blogs and all I see is how people state they would vote for Mccain because how rude Obama supporters are. Some people voting rights should be revoked. Please people STOP THE STUPIDITY, vote 4 the candidates on issues you agree with. Obama and Hillary agree on just about every issue.

…how the Obamaniacs are opposed to the bush and clinton dynasties but are so proud to have members of the kennedy dynasty behind their candidate…

Here are the states Obama will win in GE

NY,CT,CA,OR,HI,WA,IL,DE,MD,DC,VT,RI.

Oooops teddy I cant see MA in the list up there.
Time for you to retire you misogynist.

It's a no-brainer. Obama-Clinton ticket will win the WH for the democrats.

Obama/Mary Jo 08

Ted Kennedy is right NO NO NO ! If the ticket needs a woman there are others that can fill the bill. Janet Napolitano for instance. She would attract feminists and Catholic voters. I also like Wesley Clark., or Joe Biden.

I think we should throw Hillary out of the party.

Teds hoping for the VP spot…..Obama becomes Pres….then to celebrate ….Ted will take him a drive over a bridge

Listen to him..he is very very old and wise

Having Hillary as VP would NOT make me vote for Obama. I've never voted for a Republican in my life, but if Obama is the nominee my vote goes to McCain.

Problem with Hillary is, you get Bill to too, so who will you act have to talk to…

other thing is, she is to tied with a lot of corporation's and special interest groups, so no good gain there…

I think he should choose Maria Shriver for VP.. A young white woman…

I would hope that he would also give consideration to somebody that has — is in tune with his appeal for the nobler aspirations of the American people.^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Guess that rules out Jeremiah, huh? Would love to see that Wutu dance of his on the chicken and peas circuit.

Jim webb woukld be huge ,

I throughly AGREE with KENNEDY!! After her recent show of Bullheadedness and disrespect for her partys needs…+ the old White House ways of the Clinton/Bush years…We Need a NEW start!! I hope Mr. Obama;s choice will be another person of honesty and integrity , with his interests and the intersts of the American people, first and foremost. not a spoiled, selfish bullheaded, thoughtless egomanic!! Obviously!!!
OBAMA IS THE MAN FOR THE COUNTRY!!! LETS HOPE SOON THE COUNTRY WILL BE UNITED FOR THE MAN!!

The future president of The United States of America must be a person who commands respect from foreign nations and who symbolizes something positive about this great country. Obama is just such a person. In him the world can see living proof of America's nature; the opportunity, the racial tolerance, freedom from opression, religious variety living in harmony and all the things that the world is needing in order to end the suffering of so many peole around the world. To compromise these qualities by combining them with the ruthless ambitions of a person unsuited for leadership, from a family of doubtful moral strength with a proven record of duplicity, would send the wrong message not only to the world, but also to future generations that will see in the act an irresponsible admition that guile and deceit are valid qualities. Obabama must select a person of equal moral and personal strength as his running mate. He must be free to continue listening to his inner convictions and not be subjected to the forces of political expediency. A resounding NO to Clinton for V.P.

Remember the saying "United we Stand, Divided we Fall"?? That's exactly what will happen if Hillary is not on the ticket (as VP, of course).

BS on the race crap. The African Americans are the worst racist I know. If you want to loose this race in November go ahead and support Obama….This life long democrat will vote republican. And Kennedy, your a traitor to your own people. Maybe they'll send you home.

I think Rev Wright was mentioned for VP.

Who cares what Kennedy thinks anyway?

I wouldn't want Hillary as VP….only as President.

Keep going Hillary!!!!

Sen Kennedy knows all too well that clinton adds nothing to the ticket and we need to let Obama pick his running mate. I have full confidence that his judgement on the VP will be fine and someone that can bring home a democratic victory in the fall. Keep saying this over and over Sen. Kennedy your voice is always welcomed.

The Democrats are making yet another grave mistake in electing there nominee:obama. McCain will be president.

Just heard the supers are up in arms behind the scenes about Hillary (purposely) dividing the party by RACE to all but guarantee O'bama's loss. Paul begala… her comments yesterday, etc… They are aghast at her screwing the party like this….. which is why so far SIX supers declared for Obama TODAY…

I think TEd kennedy needs to shut up. He was the one who challeneged Jimmy Carter, a sitting President, was down by over 500 delegates, but did not give in. We know Obama will be the nominee, just let it run its course, and in June DEMS will be energized!!!!

No! with both eves opened.

Thank you, senator! Obama does'n t need such a liar in his team. NO WAY! Clintons are going down!! Finally! People hate HRC so much and will not vote for Barack if she is on the ticket! We want change, we do not want clintons in WH!! Period! I don't care if the OLD ANTS are not voting for Obama.. it is time for GENARATIONAL SHIFT!! It's more important WHO OUR KIDS WILL SUPPORT!!! Obama is our next president.

He is nothing but a blowhard!!! Go shut up Teddy..

Although, I am supporting Obama and do not want a joint ticket, some of his wording is insulting. I have never liked Ted Kennedy and this is another example why.

OBAMA IS FOR CHANGE!!!!!!!!! HE IS RESISTING THE VOTE COUNT IN FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN. THAT'S CHANGE, ISN'T IT?
IF THE THE VOTES IN FLORIDA ANFD MICHIGAN COUNTS —– HILLARY IS THE WINNER. SAVVY? SO , OBAMA SUPPORTERS START CELEBRATING IF AND WHEN THE VOTES IN BOTH FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN ARE COUNTED. THE GREATEST ELECTION TEAM - CNN - SHIES AWAY FROM DISCUSSING THE FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN VOTES, HMM,

BLACKS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN GIVEN TOKEN APPARENCES IN TV ADS, etc, OBAMA PUTS WHITES BEHIND HIM DURING HIS SPEECHES ON TV, HOW IRONIC !!!!!!!
HE IS FOR CHANGE.

This murderer has no right to put anyone down. Had he not been in the senate he would have been in prison years ago.
It is very simple Mitchell you are not only a lier but you are stupid too. Those of you who think Obama is your God are hell bound.
This whole process has been a joke.
MCain in 08. At least he believes in AMerica. This bunch of hoodlems on here doesn't appear to believe in anything . They could care less about our country. All they know to do is call someone a lier. It makes me wonder abou their intelligence. Oh or is this the change they want in America–The kind that is filled with hate, hate, hate,
Is Kennedy part of the change? Oh I forgot he not part of the old political system. or is he? Go Hillary

NO JOINT TICKET!
Hillary would rather roll over and croak before accepting 2nd place to a black man president. It's either do or die for her and she is proving that very clearly. Unfortunately, this campaign has been and will always be about race………….

For those of you who say John McCain would do this or do that, you should have thought about that before you voted for an inexperienced rookie, who cannot win, so deal with it.

I just donated 20.00 to obama, i urge everyone to do the same today…make sure WE knock sniper fire Billary out of the race and soon.

Why don't anyone tell Mrs. Clinton that she is finished. She is already finished and she's not going to back down untill she destroys this party.

To all you people claiming to have Dems but now have switched… WHO ARE YOU KIDDING!!!!!

The true Dems are going to win and by very big margins because of what you Reps have done to this country, and Barack Obama will lead the way out of this darkness back into the light where we belong.

Hey Sara from Boston–vote McCain and if he wins be prepared for a president who doesn't support equal pay for equal work for women, will appoint judges who will take control of your reproductive freedom and who will follow an economic policy that will send your sons to war and put your home on the auction block. Real smart decision, Sara.

Obama should NOT put Clinton on his ticket. He will regret it (even if they win the White House). This time he should take the advice of Bush: NEVER NEGOTIATE WITH TERRORIST. That's how Clinton's supporters are acting - like terrorist. They are threatening the national and financial security of this nation by threatening to vote for McCain knowing that another Republican term has the potential to cripple America. Don't forget the judicial concerns.

I hope that Obama spoke with Gore about the down side to working with the Clintons. When the Clintons do not agree with Obama's policies or positions, they will be working/negotiating behind his back to undermine him. There are plenty of qualified running mates who will complement the Obama administration, such as Richardson and Edwards. Of course - Gore will be an excellent choice but he probably does not want to be VP again.

Kerry is not a bad choice, but the Republicans know how to swift boat him. I am sure they will be up to their horns attempting to swift boat Obama so an Obama-Kerry ticket may be too risky. But I like Kerry. Maybe he has been "vetted" and, therefore, can breeze through the swift boat.

OBAMA IS FOR CHANGE!!!!!!!!! HE IS RESISTING THE VOTE COUNT IN FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN. THAT'S CHANGE, ISN'T IT?
IF THE THE VOTES IN FLORIDA ANFD MICHIGAN COUNTS —– HILLARY IS THE WINNER. SAVVY? SO , OBAMA SUPPORTERS START CELEBRATING IF AND WHEN THE VOTES IN BOTH FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN ARE COUNTED. THE GREATEST ELECTION TEAM - CNN - SHIES AWAY FROM DISCUSSING THE FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN VOTES, HMM,

BLACKS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN GIVEN TOKEN APPARENCES IN TV ADS, etc, OBAMA PUTS WHITES BEHIND HIM DURING HIS SPEECHES ON TV, HOW IRONIC !!!!!!!
"THATS CHANGE YOU CAN COUNT ON."

Just curious,

1. How many people will / will not vote for Obama because he is black?
2. How many people will / will not vote for Clinton because she is a woman?

3. How many people will vote for McCain if their candidate isn't the nominee only because they don't want to vote for a woman or a black man?

If it's not a joint ticket in Nov, Obama will lose. See 2000 and 2004…
As for Kennedy, he's irrelevant.

Hillary

Don't need to worrry about joint ticket - Clinton is ahead in West Virigina 66-23 and has won the last five of seven primaries. The American People have turned (except for the black people which is understandable).
VIRGINIA AND THE LARGE STATES TELL US WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN NOVEMBER FOLKS. Give Obama time to season and think about his judgement as to WRight, Rezko and the like.
Joanne
Minneapolis, Mn

I agree wholeheartedly Ted. Obama/Clinton would be like Kennedy/Johnson. Even if it did win, they would still hate each other!

Ted, your state voted for Hillary but you have endorsed Obama. I thought like Pelosi said, superdelegates are not supposed to voted against the will of the people. Hello?

"JIM WEBB"

My, my, my aren't we all so full of ourselves!

For those of you who can't spell, or construct a sentence properly, either turn on your spell checkers and grammar checkers, or concentrate on reading and learning something, instead of babbling like trailer trash! If you appear to be uneducated, no one will listen to what it is you are saying!

Yikes!

You are so right Margaret! Kennedy makes me sick to my stomach! The good Kennedy's are gone! God Bless Them!!!! Bash Hillary all you want, all the ghost will come out of the closet on Obama soon when the republicans put him in the meat grinder and chew him up into hamburger! He will not be able to take the heat, he will sink like the Titanic. Sink Obama Sink!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think Kennedy is absolutely right….it is not only insane to think that these two could even be on a ticket together…but not conceivable given how Clinton has run this campaign against Barack. She is polarizing and divisive…which is totally in noncompliance with Barack Obama's platform..totally not within the kind of presidency that Barack wants to have…She has never been in this thing for her country, not the Democratic Party..this has been totally about Hillary Rodham Clinton…..and that is unforgiveable……as well as a disgrace.

Unbelievable!
This campaign is getting nastier and nastier! And it's not the candidates…it's their supporters!
I support Hillary but I doubt very much at this point if she will win.
There is a lot of division in the Party, and stupid remarks by Ted Kennedy and Al Sharpton do nothing to heal the rift.
The bottom line is that Hillary has millions of supporters in a constituency that Barack needs if he is going to beat John McCain.
Bad mouthing Hillary Clinton at this stage of the game will not encourage her supporters to back Obama for the White House.
Personally I hope she is not his VP. I think she has enormous potential for the future, and will chart her own course in due time. I agree with Gloria Borger on CNN last night when she suggested Obama choose a popular Clinton supporter such as Governor Strickland or Bayh as his running mate.
That would strenthen the ticket and bring both sides together.
The last person he should choose is Bill Richardson or some other turncoat or virulent Hillary hater. The Democrat ticket would go down the tubes!!

I also think it's not a good idea. It's not just practical: three captains in a ship. Obama?Rendell. That''s a WINNER

You think Obama did not lie when he said "he never heard Wright engage in racists anti american talk" - don't insult my intelligence.
Clinton knew there was snipers around and embellished on something that is irrelevant.

I must agree with 50 year old white ladies. I think Hillary has hurt the chances for future women to take a run at the White House. It is time for a female president but we need one with honor, dignity, and truth.
For now, we have Obama and we must vote for him or loose Roe v Wade and thousands more of our young people in this horrible war.
Democrats 08

Come on people!!! We aren't voting for the captain of the kickball team in 5th grade.

Please don't be spiteful and vote for McCain just because your candidate didn't get the nomination. You will only be hurting yourself, your family and OUR country. Is that what you would tell your children, just because you don’t get your way go to the other side?!?!

Support the Democrats all the way to the Oval Office!!!

Obama= Politics of change
Ted Kennedy= Old Politics? There's something wrong with this picture???? So ironic!

Anyway, we don't want an arrogant, inexperienced Intern in our team:

HILLARY/ Randell for 08!

GO HILLARY for West Virginia!!!!!

Why after Billy boys and hilly girls racial remarks would Brack Obama even consider this witch.

Great another illegal because as is well known the US does not recognize dual citizenship except in a very few cases. People (not real Americans or why be dual) do it when they can by gaining citizenship through family in another country but its not OUR way. We are proud to be Americans so CAROLINE why dont you renounce your citizenship because we don't need illegals here!!!

ToMaria - Obama is exactly what foreign countries and governments want . Do your homework. I can add my two cents as I have duel citizenship and spend much time in Canada and Europe.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

and who is surprised that foreign countries want a political novice in the White house? Are you people stupid or just illegals?

He and Pelosi and everyone who is silently talking are right,
hillary is the oppposite from Obama
we know it and he knows it.

She is better off with McCain, she has been using their rap, their books, their style, tone, attacks, you name it, all you have to do is hear Limbaugh and Henedy and you know what she will say and do next

We need change, change change…

NO more clintons anywhere………..they can go write their fairy tale.

Hillary would distract from a message of new politics. She continues to campaign in a way that is negitive to the party. NO HILLARY 2008/2012.

Margaret (3:19 pm ET), common sense tells me that it is NOT ideal for Obama to say hell no to an Obama-Clinton ticket right now. The media would be all over him! It's best for Obama's surrogants to speak "unofficially" for the campaign. All politicians, including Clinton, do the same thing. No surprises. Just smart.

Thank you Mr. Kennedy for stating something I think most people are thinking. There are other capable women that could run as VP with Obama.

Kathleen Sebelius would be an excellent choice and one I think the majority of people would agree with.

God, wouldn't it be nice if all the "Barak" supporters out there even knew how to spell his same?

What a country…the uneducted voting for the unqalified — how can we go wrong?

Romney 2012.

Why would Sen. Hillary even remotely consider being on Obama 's ticket when she has no respect for him? According the Sen. Hillary , Obama only brings his speeches from 2002 and nothing more. I think she is more in line with John McCain becuase they both have many years of washington experience, and they have the support of the WHITE HARD WORKING BLUE COLLAR AMERICANS.
ha ha ha ha ha ha !!!

What a sad way to end the noble Kennedy legacy. Robert and John must be rolling in their graves…

Kennedy is so smart!

Cheers, Ted, for making the right call. Obama's the right person for the position, like I've been saying since last year. People like "silence do good" think that the state of MA is still pro-Clinton. But most of the state has changed their minds about her. After all the crap she's slung, I bet a lot of you people regret voting for her. I for one, will vote for Obama again in November because I don't want to lose the quality of health care we have now, watch the economy fall apart, or see my country embroiled in any more war.

Kennedy should have been in jail years ago. Why does the media even give him a platform? Even Kennedy doesn't have enough money to buy the presidency for Obama. mark my words, Obama WILL NOT win the general election. There is a vast democratic network preparing to unsurp any chance he thinks he has. Just say NO to OBAMA!

Its 2010…., The president of the USA - Barack already brought our troops from Iraq, he improved our economy, he increased our life standard and Clinton is still compaining and still making case to DNC that she is more electable.

I was a registered Independent for 38 years. I switched to the Democratic party this year, but after all the Democratic whining about wanting Sen. Clinton to drop out of the campaign, I'll be registering as an Independent again. There has been a record turn out of voters from all states, yet the Democrats don't want to let all the voters voices to be heard. This will disenfranchise many voters. I will be voting this November by writing in Sen. Clinton's name. I hope other Clinton Supporters will join me as I will not vote for John McCain or Barack Obama

Ted…you have a pal who is even more left to you. Thanks for endorsement. This is the endorsement that will turn off the moderates and independents.

If there is not a joint ticket, he will not be able to win the general election. This guy is inexperienced enough as it is, come on!!! what are you people thinking? Your trying to put someone who has only been in the senate for 3.5 years. Is this a JOKE ? My guess obama has already promised someone else the VP seat, so now he's trying to distract people from thinking about a joint ticket with Hillary. Let's face it, the General election is Already over.

I agree. I think that HIllary and Bill will undermind Barack all the way. Besides, she will bargin to pay off her debt adn tell white voters he did not want her. That way she can campaign against him and run in 2012.

I think he shoudl offer her
1. A Supreme Court Justice position
2. A Cabinet Position
3. A cup of Coffee and A ride back to NY

I like Hillary and have contributed to defeating Bush in the last two elections. However, if Obama wins the nomination, the party's left wing's (Ted's) Hillary bashing will just encourage me and other more moderate Democrats to sit on our hands election-time.

You know what, i can't stand the unfair treatments against Hillary. Obama can get the nomination the dirty way he wants with the help of the press. However, everyone from my family and I will not vote for him in the general election. We will instead vote republician. I believe many hillary supporters would do the same. I really want to see how Obama can win when half of Hillary's support vote republician. I guess at the end, justice will serve.

I do not see Obama and Hillary on the same ticket period. He will be looing over his shoulder at Bill for the next four years! Secondly, being VP will dampen here opportunity to head a ticket in 2012. I don't think she will go for it! Besides he needs somone with executive experience and knows how to run a budget . He needs a Governor as his running mate (Richardson)???

No Hillary! Period!

Again you fail to post my positive comments on Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Stop the Bias.

Hillary cannot and will not take second position to the Racial Candidate, Barak Hussein Obama.

She has done the Nation a favor in exposing him for what he really represents. And for that we are grateful.

Had the information on Rev. Wright been brought forward early in the primary season, before New Hampshire, She would be the only candidate available to the Democrarts.

There is no way that Obama can carry the Democratic party to victory in November without the Hillary Democrats. The majority of the vote will go to McCain.

Hispanics are already moving to the Republican column and this will accelerate the exodus. About time too.

Hillary is done. I doubt that she will be back in 2012, especially if Barack loses. Her actions have burnt her in the eyes of the American people. She has become such a whiner that many will cringe if her name is mentioned in nomination of another office. The very thing that makes her admirable (being a fighter) is the very thing that did her in. She doesn't know when to concede. She's the type to go out kicking and screaming - not very presidential.

Also, let's face it, most of her base is older people. She may lose a few backers as younger people become able to vote in 2012.

I am not a Clinton basher (at least my tone on her has softened) but I think her actions now have to be seen (even by her supporters) as a little silly now.

Yeah this is just the begining of the problem. Hillary well for the divisiveness. I pray the Domocrats find a common ground.

I still think Ted Kennedy is a sexist. Unfortunately he will lose a lot of people's respect. And who is he to talk. I heard/read about how he reacted when he ran for president…..

What doesn't Hillary and the DNC understand? WE DON"T WANT HILLARY, PERIOD!! sHE HAS DONE NOTHING BUT TRY TO DIVIDE THIS PARTY, AND CONINUES TO DO SO. sHE AND bILL HAVE LOST THE RESPECT THEY ONCE HAD. oBAMA IS OUR CHOICE!

Obama Richardson 2008!!!!!

Mr Kennedy is sooo right like all others who see Sen. Clinton as bringing so much negativity into the race that it would now be impossible to amend. There is virtually too much water under the bridge. It would be a contradiction. After all, Obama was not good enough for president and possibly not even VP. How can you pick the same viper as VP. Philadelphia will never be forgotten.

Much as I'd love Senator Clinton to get the vice-presidency with nearly half of voting democrats supporting her, I think there's too much bad blood between the two. They wouldn't be able to cooperate effectively and convincingly as a team.
I'm hoping Obama will choose Katherine Sebelius. She's governor of a red state, and she'll please Hillary's female constituency as well as some of the "bitter" small town voters Obama has pissed off.

OMG Ted Kennedy knows best..give me a break.. He and Kerry just want to control Barack. I will be sitting home during the general election. So tired of the hate towards the Clintons. It's interesting, Barack talks of taking a higher road, while his campaign people and his supporters mouth hate. Sorry, but i never heard him speak out about this treatment against Hillary. Being a democrat all my life, this election really disturbs me. The caucus primaries are a joke, so unamerican. Most people had to work. If the party doesn't change this stupid process in the future, I will become an independent.

Sounds like he is prepping himself for the position. Surely, they will take a divided democratic party to become the biggest loser. Sounds good to me. Another 100 years of war, a bankrupt nation.

Ted, you are so right and I thank you for your honesty. You sir, are truly a great American! Hillary, is a disappointment and a disgrace to this great country. Obama, we need change! Please do not nominate her as your VP, she is no good, she is a Bigot and a Race Baiter. ”Dream Team” more like “Dumb Team”. Obama, please get a Food Taster in case you make the silly mistake and she becomes your VP, a word to the wise.
Congratulation Obama, we are almost home!

Our President Obama 08’ & 12’

Both candidates have groveled over there undying support of Israel . The whole middle east quagmire is as a result of the U.S. policy in backing the most unbending nation in the world . The treatment of the Palestinian Arabs has been nothing short of being disgraceful . As jimmy Carter replied on Larry King live ,when asked why more politician don't support his thinking in settling the Israel ,Palestinian conflict ,his simple reply was"because they would never get elected" . Can you imagine the U.S. putting up with Canada arbitrarily putting up 200 developments in the North West of thee U.S. ,grabbing the land without payment and declaring those area's under Canadian jurisdction.,and expecting a peaceful solution ,

Caroline…. Stay in Canada. Good Socialist Country. Enjoy your Medical care.

Fortunately Americans get to vote not foreign countries. The next time Europe is invaded we should all stay home. Also, Canada needs to pay for it's own defense., instead of relying on my tax dollars for their defense.

I am offended with Hillary's comments about people over 50 years, so called uneducated and that make under $75,000. Does she think we don't have any sense?? or are unintelligent.

Edward Kennedy is so right.

Despite the spin, Clinton does not have the character to lead constructively

I took a count in my town, and the finding were. People that voted for Clinton stated that they will now vote for MaCain. And I hope MaCain WINS.

how about al sharpton or louis farakahn??? those are supporters of barak obama. he can't win anyway. just make it a statement that black bigots can make a run for the white house and get on with having a real president. ted kennedy??? shouldn't he be in jail for murder anyway??

Don't ride in a car with Teddy…Will he be Obamas' right or left hand man?

Beautifully said! Senator Kennedy is correct, and made his statement with great dignity. Thank you Senator Kennedy!

Nobler aspirations of the American people???? Ted means nobler aspirations of OUR POLITICIANS TURNING THIS COUNTRY INTO A NANNY STATE. Go home Mr. Kennedy please, you are a disgrace to those that want to keep our liberties, freedoms and Nation's sovereignty in tact!!!!

I feel sorry for ted, his time has pasted, and the good boys is going down. Hillary is fixing to clean house.

Well , as I have said before , Obama will be guided by the old guard , so much for change.
Obama doesn't have an original thought of his own , he is too liberal and too inexperienced.

A joint ticket is not really as desirable as people think.

two opponents digging dirt on each other and all of a sudden everithing is all right. tough to swallow.

Winner take all and looser go home.

Kennedy is right, Hillary should turn down the VP and teddy should get it. The two most liberal senators in the Congress. What about the Kennedy/McCain bill, does that prove that McCain can cross party lines and be a unifier. Or id McCain/Fiengold prove that? I'm feeling better and better about my decision to leave the dem party and vote for McCain. Thank you, Ted Kennedy.

Did I hear Obama say he'd been to 57 states in this campaign?

And calling Hillary a lowlife brings the party together?

Ted and Kerry are proffesional loosers along with Dean.

I wont vote for Obama Teddy just helped with my decision.
