I mean come on, after four years of George Bush, the people re-elected him for a second term? McCain will be more of the same. You are so quick to say stupid things about Hillary, but Obama is not any better. He is a politician just like the rest of them. He makes a nice speech but he is arrogant and self-serving just the same.

She's republican anyway, don't deny it. Those two can have the white racist vote. They won't win without the black vote or the enlightened white vote. We have a serious race relations problem in this country and we are still stuck 60 years in the past. Australia, New Zealand, and England have moved on, why can't we? And to all the Clinton supporters who think she won't change into a Republican Red pantsuit, Joe Lieberman did, so it is possible, Hillary could do the same. She was a republican until she married Bill. She's not a fighter, she's a liar, and that's what Republicans excel at. HIllary should VP up with McCain. She's republican anyway, don't deny it.

I know. It's just like "Feed the Hungry Children" commercial…you just turn your head or change the channel. DO YOU KNOW THAT ALMOST EVERYDAY, MORE LIVES ARE LOST? Do you care? My sister has been there twice and thank God she came back safely both times, but I am well aware of that fact that it could have easily been her and it still very easily can be her. McCain? Never. What about the other many people who have lost their lives in a war that was selfishly motivated and still is? Maybe no one that you particular care about had to go to Iraq; or maybe those that you cared about are back safely at home—so why should you care? 18…22…25….30 young lives…..before they even got a chance to live, they died and for no good reason. Hillary forever or Jump ship!!–right? This is not about a white WOMAN against a BLACK MAN. This isn't feminism versus black panthers; get over yourselves. Wake up and stop the foolishness. There are deep issues in this country that need to be resolved and if you think McCain will solve any of them (easily seeing the US in Iraq another 100 yrs, his stance on healthcare..among other things), then you are living in LALA land. This is about Americans dying in Iraq. This is about our hurting economy. This is about the healthcare system. This is about it being harder and harder for the average American just to get by. McCain, like Bush, would only help the rich get richer and the poor get poor. If Hillary is not the nominee and you vote for McCain….everything is SURE to remain the same; there are no doubts about that at all. Moreover, and what startles me is that you are so blinded by your malice and hate that you’d vote McCain….justifying the decision by what?? saying McCain is a better choice because McCain is not Obama and Obama is black?? Obama and Clinton have similar ideas and it’s a FACT that McCain’s ideas are far from both Sen. Clinton or Sen. Obama. Where’s the logic in that? There is no logic in it; I’m just going to call a spade a spade…it’s racisms and it’s hate. I thought that we as Americans, tended to look at the "big picture" however, I am seeing that some of you are so narrow minded in your thinking and near sighted in your vision, you will never have a clue as to what's really going on around you and as to what REALLY matters. What REALLY matters is not Hillary winning, what REALLY matters is not Obama winning…what REALLY matters is that at least ONE of them win. You don't look to the future, instead you dwell on some disillusioned past. I guess America really isn't ready for CHANGE because the American people still hold on so desperately to anything that is the opposite of change. Perhaps because it didn’t come in the hue or sex, they expected it to. Do you know how many lives have already been lost since this war began? I know.

I can't however vote for an Obama / Clinton ticket. I hope Obama realizes Edwards (would deliver the white blue collar vote) and Richardson would make a great VP. I sincerely think that if he picked Clinton, Obama would have an "accident" or be framed for something and impeached. 4 more years of Bill bloating around the white house with his shrew of a wife depresses me.

She would go stark raving mad in that situation. Hillary would be in his office constantly explaining things to him about life and the world in general so he will have an inkling about what is going on. Forget about him getting anything done. It took Obama 20 minutes to say he and his minister Wright were kaputs. I could have said it in a minute.
