Comments on: Clinton seems to defend Obama after apparent Bush swipe http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/05/16/clinton-defends-obama-after-apparent-bush-swipe/ All politics, all the time Mon, 21 Dec 2009 22:07:36 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: Jeff Radun http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/05/16/clinton-defends-obama-after-apparent-bush-swipe/#comment-1090961 Jeff Radun Fri, 16 May 2008 13:16:19 +0000 http://cnnpoliticalticker.wordpress.com/?p=7156#comment-1090961 I think she should become an independent and run as the demictatic party has betrayed her. She should do nothing to help Obama. I also noticed that CNN keeps asking polling questions. Saying please go to www whatever cnnn and vote. It is always a lobsidded vote as young people and the well educated are very internet savy. So when you ask a question Who Hillary of Obama is more trustworthy Obama will win every time hands down due to the people who are on these bloggs are more likely to be Obama supporters. I saw that CNN asked about the bush comment in Isreal and it was 80% said he was wrong to say whet he said about Obama to 20% who said it was true. The reason for such a one sided reply is 80% who are on this site support Obama I think she should become an independent and run as the demictatic party has betrayed her.

We aren't talking about a little league game, we are talking about the shape and direction of our country. In the last election you were pro-choice, anti-war, etc. and now suddenly you want to country to be anti-abortion and pro-war? Or are you so shallow and spiteful that you would injure your country to make some point? that is the opposite of a patriot. You should do what is best for your country, not destroy it to punish the DNC.

I believe that President Bush, has no room to talk, so to speak. Experience is the best teacher, however, our own President has failed to use any experience, it has all been "fly by the seat of the pants." It is easier to continue to put fear in the American people by telling us that we must "destroy" the enemy. Fear is the element of the enemy, and God does not give us spirit of fear, but one of love, and power, and a sound mind. If President Bush fears this enemy, he need only look deep within himself, and stop judging how the next President will handle what he himself couldn't I applause Hilliary Clinton for coming to the defense of the Democratic Party, especially for Barack Obama.

Enough!!! Evidently the Republicans are so poorly educated and scared they can't stick to the facts or think of any other solutions. I'm not even a fan of Obama. I am sick of the crap that has been put out there. And Presidant Bush Shame on you for using the Hitler card. You have smeared all the good that that generation did and lessen all the hard battles they fought. My father fought in WWII, my niece and nephew's Aunts and Uncles died in the concentration camps.You sir, are no gentleman. Oh, but we have know that for years!!!

Your comments are like everyone calling Obama a complainer at the last debate when he really never complained about anything....he just argued that the issues weren't being discussed! bp- You're obviously one of those voters who is making up your mind based on the fact that Hillary is a woman. You're no better than people who chose to vote based on race.
