I will not vote for Obama even if Clinton agrees to be his VP. He inspires hatred and animosity. He is deceitful and the worst kind of politician. He is even willing to resign from his church and shop for a politically correct church—if he really believed he would not be willing to denounce his pastor and resign from his church for political reasons. I don't care who he selects as VP; I will vote for McCain. Call me racist, not a true Democrat, or whatever. My responsibility is to vote for the person I believe will be the best President and that is not Obama.

Yeah, but regardless 9/10 of them (if not all) will still vote for a Dem at the end of the day. So who really cares?

Preferences of small groups (women, blacks, white, asian, latinos, rich, poor, young old – whatever) do not dictate who is nominated.

The primary is over, my horses were out early (Edwards/Biden/Clark) I am ready to get behind this guy and keep my fingers crossed he can be half the excecutive, his speeches make him sound like.

oh.. and next time… no party bosses and soft handed elites (super delegates) no caucuses (that only retired folks, students, and so rich they don't have to work for a living can go to) Some of us HAD to go straight to work or the military out of high school, that does not make our vote in this representative democracy any less valuable. But it DOES make it impossible for us to stay at a caucus that is held on a weekday for hours.

Wage slaves were left out of this completely. The democrats need to really start paying attention to regular people and not the party efette.(not elite… look it up)

I'm so tired of Obamites screaming about the high cost of gas and food. Please name one thing that Obama will do about the high cost of either. All he wants to do is, theoretically, tax the rich to pay for all his programs. Well guess what, with the economy in the toilet, the rich aren't as rich. Even so, unless he taxes them at 100% there is no way he will pay for all his socialistic programs. And again, he will do nothing, nothing, nothing, about high gas prices.

I hope that Obama does NOT ask Hillary Clinton to be his VP. Obama should use his own strengths (Oprah's money) to win the White House.
Why should he use Hillary to win the the Presidency? Perhaps Father Pfleger is available?
Obama will never get my vote. Putting the Washington version of Paris Hilton into office is the last thing I'll vote for. It's a vote for John McCain for me in November and Hillary in 2012!

I am a white, college-educated, upper-income professional woman who will NOT vote for Obama. I've been a Democrat all my life, but I now consider myself an Independent. The Democratic party has lost me forever.

I don't believe that Obama has that deep of a problem with white women. I think that white women were in support of Hillary Clinton, and really wanted her to win. They are angry, dissappointed, and Obama is the object that they have transfered this negative energy to. However, after a cooling off period, they will back Sen. Obama in droves because John McCain is the alternative. A McCain presidency creates problems for women voters both substantively and figuretively. National health insurance, Roe v. Wade, War in Iraq, failing economy, No Child Left Behind, the high cost of gasoline, food, energy, the mortgage crisis are just a few of the major issues that will move Hillary's white women supporters to Obama. Obama and Clinton have very little difference in their policy platforms. I believe the vast majority of Hillary's women supporters will see that and coalesce behind Sen. Obama by November. But I don't think putting Hillary on the ticket as V.P. is a good idea. First I think both she and Sen. Obama are being pushed into a "shotgun wedding". I don't think for one moment that Mrs. Clinton would be happy as a vice president. And on top of that ,Bill brings along a bit too much baggage to make it work. It will work out in the end for the Democratic Party and its nominee for POTUS, Barack Obama!!!

The only reason this is because they do not know Sen. Obama, but when they get to hear him and know him, this will change.

Democrats unite! We need to win the white house. Obama will include many women and hispanics in his cabinet. Also McCain will appoint ultra conservative judges who will rule harshly women's issues and immigration issues.

EVERY woman who supports her will change their minds as soon as CNN has the guts to run the story that is on the Huffington Post that quotes the Clinton senior staffer who says that she wants to be OFFERED the VP spot so she can TURN IT DOWN! THEN says " Don't you DARE Offer the VP spot to ANOTHER WOMAN!!!"

SO much for Hillarys unselfish work for furthering ALL Women. We all knew she was in this for Her and her ALONE!

But I bet this will NEVER see the light on this Blog...this is Hillarys Blog.
