This is as phony as a bipartisanship effort in congress. BHO & the DNC railroaded Hillary but don’t count out the Clinton's just yet. They will set up BHO for a fall in October.

I hope obama is as smart as i think he is and picks hillary as his running mate that is the only way i see him getting into th white house.

The PUMA, so called Hillary Clinton supporters, never really supported Hillary as much as they were against the idea of a Barack Obama becoming President.

They can't really say they supported her or her vision which she has always shared with Barack Obama. They may have voted her (against Obama) in the Democratic primary, but for them to say they'll now vote for McCain who's ideologies and policies are night and day different from Hillary and Obama and in alignment with the Bush Administration, they never really supported her or what she stands for.

I will donate to Hillary, I will not donate to Obama or the DNC…I will write Hillary on my ballot in November. Let the chips fall where they may. I can at least say, don't blame me, I voted for her…

don't get sidetracked, Barack.

You're going to have to come up with something very clever to say, to clear up the whole Iraq thing. For example "we are going to allow them to have a real democracy over there, instead of invading if they have anything but an american-business-friendly government; like Saddam when he traded his oil in American Dollars vs. Saddam after he switched oil trade in Iraq to Euros - remarkably close to the time we invaded."

Not that Saddam was democratic - of course he wasn't. We just didn't have a problem with the torture and war crimes until he stopped serving the interests of american business. Suddenly, we start talking about the crimes he's been commiting for the last 20 years, or so, like it was new. Wasn't it us that put him in power to begin with? Did everyone forget that already? Sort of like forgetting May-Day? Why would we put a jerk in power? Why did you choose to do that?

For his campaign or her debt?

It happened finally… I've overdosed on all the campaigning. I hope I find the energy to vote in November. This election cycle has been way too long.

Okay there has been enough speculation between these two, I believe these two will work out together. I am all for it.

All other sources are headlining removal of 550 tons of uranium yellow cake from Iraq. Why is CNN silent ?

Okay theirs been enough speculation between these two, I believe these two will work out together. I am all for it.

OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA!

You people make me sick!

sorry to see the clintons still around this is not good for obama

Luv them together!

If Obama would make up his mind about his VP in favor of Hillary, believe me, he would skyrocket his efforts to raise money, and move him much closer to winning the general election. There would be so much excitement for this "dream ticket". Remember, 18 million people would be thrilled (counting Hillary's votes for her nomination). Sure , there will always be some negative people saying it won't work, but there are in the minority. The opposing party would not come close to having that type of ticket or excitement generated by a Obama-Hillary combination. Just don't wait around any longer…it's a winning combination.

It's funny how you clinton supporters accuse Barack Hussein Obama of being racists, divisive, a liar and deceitful because in your heart of hearts you know you're really talking about Hillary. She was all that and more. Did it ever occur to you PUMA, PAC people that the delegates chose Obama cause they knew the Clintons and how they operated and were tired of it? The Clintons are no saints people, check out all the people that died around them when they were going to testify against them. Do it, unless you're afraid of the truth. Total of 26 people mysteriously died.

All Democrats UNITE.

SAY NO TO THE:

1) 100yrs of Iraq war
2) Bomb Iran and North Korea
3) Job outsourcing while the CEO's make billion dollar bonuses
4) Health Insurance only to the rich, while 49 MILLION AMERICANS do not have health insurance
5) Tax cuts to the 1% wealthiest Americans
6) GOP Military Industrial Complex (Halliburton, KBR, Black water)
7) GOP the party of filthy rich, party of shame , party of religious fanatics, NRA = New KKK

You better stay consistent with your message, or become Bobby Jinda (Two face).

Two hundred and seventy MILLION dollars so far??? How much more does he plan to spend through November? My vote is not for sale and neither is the Presidency.

As I have said for the past 17 months, it's just a matter of time, opportunity and desire until these two wind up in bed together. Good enough, will they make another little obama?

Its a good gesture of both of them, Obama should help pay HRC debt as much as possible, there may be more fundraisers required, which will be distracts from the campaign.

So far many HRC staunch supporters are not buying Obama's arguments, they are critical on every news that comes out about Obama, it seems likely that many of them will stay home and not be voting. We have to accept the reality and move on. Perhaps, HRC and her supporters still think that Obama is not electable, in spite of Obama's lead in many key states in polls, and they are trying to prove their arguments. I doubt if Bill will truly come out to help in any major way, its obvious that he has made no public endorsement on any sort.

Its HRC supporters who are haters of Obama's popularity joined by media who are constantly blaming Obama of flip flops. He has always said that he will call a meeting of joints chiefs of staff as soon as he is elected, have high level consultations with military commanders to refine the details based on facts, but put his strategy of withdrawl on the table that everyone must follow. He also had said last year that acceptance or refusal of public funding will be based on discussions with McCain, which never materialized. Haters of the HRC group wrongly proclaim flip-flops on these. My sincere advice to them is to get out of the blogs, unless they can carry objective discussions.

Its a very clear choice between the two candidates, whoever people want will be the next president.

I strongly recommend the HRC lovers and Obama haters to do whatever they wish, but stop throwing things on blogs that no longer make any sense.

Obama 08

I hope he gains the common sense needed to see that he needs Hillary and friends on his ticket. The last two weeks have been nothing but one silly mistake after another. Please let her help.

Is good for democrats and shame for people who still make wrong allegation that Hillary supporters will never vote for Obama. Some time it seems like people who get chance to come on T.V to answer the question don’t have ability of good judgments. Everybody knows that during the primary some republicans call their supporters to vote Hillary and make chaos the democrats “historic primary”. It is not doubt that these voters will back Barack automatically, that the same people who deeply believe McCain is not going anyway with the republicans and their worse strategic plan of Karl Rove and others. But as we all know Barack is a hard worker and fighter he will do what ever he has to do to convince these Hillary republicans to vote for CHANGE. Everybody is tired with republicans because the only things they know is negative campaign they don’t have any good plan for the people is the party without program therefore when they come in the power they do whatever they want and nobody have question to them.

Pay your own debt Clinton.

Great news for the Democrats and like mined voters who want change. Vote for Obama 08!!!

Obama/Clinton 08!!!!!!!!!

Not one "red" cent!!!

PUMA!!!!

Seems more of HIll's supporters are refusing to back Obama than the pundits thought, although we've been saying it all along. People say a vote for McCain is a vote for Bush. We say a vote for McCain is a vote for Hill in '12. She's ready to lead, Obama's not . However, if Obama does tap Hillary for VP, then I think he wins the presidency in a landslide come November. With Hill on the ticket, I might even reconsider. But it will depend on McCain's VP choice.

Hillary is looking like a Vice to me :}

Barack needs to leave her in the dust. She can fundraise her own way out of debt. She got herself into this mess, she can get herself out.

I still have a problem with Hillary and her outrageous debt. Why on earth did the woman keep on going after she knew she didn't have a chance. She made that choice herself and she is the one who needs to take care of the debt. Not the Democrats supporting Obama. Its ridiculous. And what of those 18 million supposed supporters. Why on earth aren't they taking care of their Queens debt. Heck, they could each send her $2 and she'd be set. She could even pay herself back all those millions. I'm quite sure she needs it more than her supporters. PUMA tards….where are you? You candidate need s you. Please rescue her. Put your money where your mouth is.

What a shame. This fine lady and a true America, who loves her country, should find herself, having to play second fiddle, to this imatureand arrogant person. Puma is trying to make sure that her name is placed in nomination at the convention and that the delegates have the opportunity to cast their votes and that those super delegates vote for the only person that now can win in November. Obama has flip flopped on so many important issues in the last two weeks there is no way he can wim. FISA, Abortions, the war and bringing home the troops, are just some of his "flips", and he has moved over to the far right of McCain.

Still won't vote for him unless Hillary is on the ticket no matter how many times they appear together. Period. And for those Obama folks who believe this blog is written by a covert republican please note I am an educated female voter born and raised in Chicago. I have voted democratic for 30 years without exception but I will break with the Democratic party over this issue.

This is a Hillary supporter who will not vote for him anyway. Hillary's
appearance with him can not make up for his lack of experience and qualifications. He does not have the capability to run the country, not to mention in this challenging time. Plus he flip flop so many issues recently, how can one trust him????

she spent her money. why should OBAMA help her get money back?
the clintons have always lived off other people. they are professional mooches.

Barack Obama is a liar! Get away from him Hillary before he tarnishes your image! He will soon make you backpaddle with him! God Bless America!!

Sorry PUMA, PAC's but she mismanaged her campaign and even you guys can't blame that on Obama. And this is the woman you wanted to run our country…interesting…very interesting.

She mismanaged her campaign and to think she wanted to run our country.

I'm just happy that there are efforts made to help pay off Hillarys debts. Who cares about the other million dollar senator.

The major studio exectutives today admitted that the giant gorilla King Kong is gay and planning to marry Mighty Joe Young in a civil ceremony. The Republican party has made a statement that all children that have seen this character could be affected by this announcement. The marriage will take place in Santa Barbara California at the home of rock star Michael Jacksons Neverland Ranch. Kong has been in the closet about his sexuality for many years but felt it was time to explain that Joe Young was the gorilla of his dreams and for him for the rest of his life. Both Kong and Young are big Democrats and will be married on the day the George W.Bush speaks at the Republican convention. The wedding cake will represent the past seven years of this Republican administration with a lot of fruits and nuts mixed in the cake and cut up pieces of banana called cronies. The best gorilla will be Magilla and the two have decided to live on their own planet near Charlton Heston. We will hope that Mr. Heston will put down his gun and live in peace!

Real republicans vote for Bob Barr.

John McCain took public financing when he put it up for collateral for a campaign loan months ago. Its time for CNN to give the facts, rather than fantasy, when it comes to John McCain.

The steam and aura around Obama is going down because instead of sticking with his message of hope and change he is waisting his time and energy responding to McCain's criticism.
I wonder if he's forgotten that what actually got him to this point was the fact that he stayed above the fray of partisan politics. If he has any hope of winning over the doubters of which i was one, then he should focus his attention on the issues and talk more about providing solutions to the many problems comfronting americans.

And for those of you who don't know what voting for the president of the United States mean, it means you are voting for the most powerful person on the face of the earth whose policies and actions not only affect americans but people the world over.
If you think this is not true, then watch gas prices today. In 2001 it was $20 a barrel. I know, we are being told that gas prices are high because of demand outweighing supply. Well, demand is playing a role but can anybody explain why a barrel of oil will go up 45% in 6 month?

So all i'm trying to say is, consider the issues carefully before you cast your ballot and remember that, that one single vote of yours can impact the world positively or negatively.

LET OBAMA FALL ON HIS OWN HILLARY. GO INDEPENDANT GIRL. AMERICA NEEDS A REAL LEADER.

i think hillary need to let obama campaign by himself .he doesnt need her help because he knows if she campaign with him he will tried to get her supporters to trust him.im not listening if he dont pick hillary i will not vote for him.

It doesn't make one bit of difference how many times Obama campaigns with Hillary. When Howard Dean and the DNC broke their own rules by giving Obama uncommitted votes, they lost the respect and support of 18 million voters–voters who will not be so easily swayed come November.

No Hillary, don't do it! The obo fans said "they didn't need you". IT'S NOT TO LATE ~DNC TO FIX THIS!!!!!!
Hillary'08
or 4 more years of bush. Obo is part of the "right" party not the "right" person!!!!!
P.S……U obo fans did this. DNC needs to go of the way of "THE PEOPLE VOTES"!!!!!!!!!
HILLARY'08!!!!!!

He is intent on buying his way into the Presidency. It will not happen.
Our country is not for sale to Muslims.

The American Patriots of all political persuasions will keep him out of office.

Say it ain't so Hillary. You don't want
to be seen with that girlie man.

He is a changer all right. He changes his
positions faster that an infant's diapers get
changed.

Wow

Senator Clinton is doing what she has to do but her donors and her supporters are free to do what they wish and that means not supporting Obama or donating to the undemocratic Democratic Party. We demand a roll call at the convention and that all states be counted. After voting for 48 years as a Democrat I will vote for McCain unless Hillary is at the top of the ticket.

PUMA Power!

Now Obama supporters have to clean up Clinton's mess!

THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO WILL NOT VOTE FOR OBAMA, CONTRARY TO WHAT THE MEDIA SUGGESTS. SOME EVEN SWITCHED PARTIES FOR SENATOR CLINTON. THE ONLY WAY WE CAN POSSIBLY SUPPORT OBAMA IS IF SENATOR CLINTON IS ON THE TICKET, OTHERWISE, MC CAIN IS OUR CLEAR CHOICE. THE MEDIA NEEDS TO GET THERE HEADS OUT OF SAND AND SEE WHAT IS REALLY HAPPENING HERE. I SWITCHED MY PARTY AFFILIATION FOR SENATOR CLINTON AND SO DID SOME OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS. IT WILL NOT BE A STRETCH TO GO BACK.

obama = the bomb

i honetly dont care if he picks hilldog as his veep

i was one of her supporters

till i heard obamas message

and i thought which is more important

my pride

or my nation…..i chose my nation

If you supported Hilary Clinton on her issues, there is no reason to vote for McCain. If you supported her b/c of her celebrity or public persona then the democratic system is better off without you voting.

Does Obama really think that bringing Hillary out or even Bill for that matter is going to make a difference for the people who still support Hillary? NO WAY! Nothing covers up that this guy is a jerk who has sold the American people and the Democratic Party a lousy bill of goods! It is never going to work. I would vote for Obama if Hillary was on the ticket but I hope she has the good sense not to take it. Come on Democrats, get rid of this guy! In the meantime, Nader is sending me some really nice e-mails and I am supporting him.

I trully hate hillary and bill clinton..there up to no good, but barack will still win, because he's a much better politician than you jerks have ever seen

Hillary Clinton should be careful when she appears together with Barack Obama. For strategic reasons he has consistently been lieing about the war in Iraq. Hillary should stay a reserv nominee until August 2008 because Obama´s earlier standpoints about Iraq made him the nominee!

This is what i call party unity, rig the process win the nomination and then ask for hillary's help because obama is going down in polls.
All those superdelegates are getting nervous.

I feel so bad for her, to be forced to stand next to a man who demeaned and insulted her, to be held hostage by the DNC is just another insult to her and her supporters. The press is already saying it will be her fault if he loses, because fast Eddy would never be responsible for anything. I'm glad polls are showing that her supporters won't show up to vote for this phony candidate. What issue hasn't he flip flopped on, and now women's groups are pulling their support because he is wavering on abortion rights issues. Well at least that's what he said when he gave an interview to a Christian magazine straying from the party line. God knows what his position will be tomorrow, I suppose it depends on who he is talking to, and who's vote he needs at that moment. Hope and change, god that's funny!

We need Obama with Hillary Clinton together as president and vice-president there is no way around.

Pardon ……….while the world gags! What Frauds and Phonys! Those two are digusting and so distrustful and dishonest! Thanks goodness they'll both be GONE by November.

If he is as smart as everyone says he will have her on the ticket… Otherwise he will NEVER get the majority of her supporters… Ever.

OBAMA AND MCCAIN SEEM TO REFINE WHAT THEY SAY BUT AS FAR AS FLIPFLOPING ON THE DIRECTION THEY WANT TO TAKE THE COUNTRY THAT HAS NOT CHANGED..MCCAIN IS FOR PROLONGING THE WAR AND OBAMA IS FOR ENDING IT

obama is a FRAUD!!! Sorry - Hillary but I will NOT unite, support, donate or ever VOTE for obama - and there are MILLIONS that feel the same way. McCain is a good 2nd choice for our country.

She can support him as much as she wants, I am still not voting for him, he has no experience

This Is extremely wonderful. It clearly goes to show that only a Dream Ticket would do if Democrats have to take Over the Oval Office.

I don't understand why there is any objection to asking Obama to help Hillary to pay off her campaign debt, given that her fundraisers will probably help Obama raise far more than the campaign debt. Paying off the campaign debt frees her time and energy to elect Barack Obama as president.

Good moves. They should both keep it up, for the unity of the party and much more for the Americans.

LET'S MOVE ON DEMOCRATS AND WIN!!!!!!!!!!!

You know, with the ecomony in the state it's in, and people losing their homes by the thousands, I resent ANY money being raised to repay the campaign debt of someone who has earned 109,000,000 in the past decade. Hillary Clinton, argueably, is a grown woman, wholly responsible for any debts that she accumulates. LET HER PAY!! This is someone who claims to be for the "blue-collar worker" and says she is more in touch with the plights of common people than any other candidate, yet she wants the average wage earner to repay her monstrous debt. Maybe that is why she said she would be awake a 3:00 am. To take the money!!

feelings end soon, but I cant help it every time I see I post from someone saying michelle should be off limits my mind takes me back to what hillary went through when bill was running and I say why is michelle so special that she gets to be off limits?, everytime I see oh aren't obamas children so beautiful I say yes they are beautiful girls, but my mind takes me back to Chelesa whens she was like 13 and what she went through beign called ugly etc it was awful so I really think that obama and family are benifiting from everything that clinton family had to go through and when I see obama supporters continue to trash hillary even though she is out of the game it ticks me off to no end. Yeah I know way off topic, hope they raise lots of money Obama's gonna need it. CNN POST

I hoestly don't think the Obama Supporters will donate to Hillary when her supporters are still anti Obama and bad mouthing him.

I love you Hillary, but I am not voting for the jerk.

Somehow I find this interesting that you, CNN, would continue to promote Hillary Clinton, when she has lost the race for the nomination. Why are you not researching who Obama will ask to run as his Vice President instead of promoting Hillary Clintons quest for notriety…..strange behavior on the part of the press to me……hummmm?

Does this mean you know something the general public does not? God Forbid that Obama would ask her, because if he did, there would be a "cross over to the Republican side" like you have never seen; Hillary is not well liked in this United States, not before the primary, nor now that all her cards have been played, and she has been exposed as a liar, why don't you "let sleeping dogs lie"……heh heh?

I don't care how much Obama and Hillary prance around together, he will still not get my vote in November. I was for Hillary during the primaries but I'm now for McCain, even if Hillary is included on the ticket as VP.

Lifelong Democrat…..evolved to PUMA…..now evolved to Republican!

McCain - 2008

Where's BILL? It 's beginning to look real glaring that Bill is not showing up at these night fundraisers with his wife. Michelle too. She's not being invited either. What's up with this, aren't the families getting along? Looks like it's just the two of them when it should be a family. That way it doesn't look funny. The first time yes, but now they've reconciled, Bill and Michelle should be invited IMO.

EVERY TIME I SEE THOSE 2 TOGETHER… I SEND McCAIN A CHECK…

LUV YA HILLARY … CANT STAND OBAMA..
.
HOW MANY MORE TIMES WILL HE "CHANGE" HIS MIND "HOPING" NOBODY NOTICES…

"OBAMA IS DOING WHAT HE HAS TO DO AS A POLITICIAN"………. REV WRIGHT

HILLARY PLEASE GET AWAY FROM THIS SINKING SHIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hillary, I was your supporter but not anymore. Barack is a fraud and you cannot team up with a fraud. Obama has lack of character and experience. I will vote for John McCain.

She needs him more than he needs her.

Congratulations Senator Obama and Senator Hillary for being able to come together. President Bill Clinton, come back to the camp as well, put a smile on, and all will be forgiven. You are still a great president. If you hadn't gone negative, you two might have a shot. Well, that's all in the past. We are still a good party, because we are the party that usually takes care of the small people. We might not be labeled the 'faith' party, but we do the right thing, take care of the small people. For all the talk about the 'values' party of the Republican Party, they certainly don't live by it. They are just talk, impose their will on us, and don't give a hand to those who need help. Government can do good things for people. We just have to find a way to make the government work for the people, rather than just give up on them. After all, we are paying taxes, might as well find a way to make it work.

I hope that Obama and Clinton are testing each other out as a possible Democratic ticket. Clinton is his best choice. He is weak where she is strong and vice versa. A ticket with a Black man and a white woman would signal a change in governmental philosophy, which we sorely need. We need the Dream Team strategy that Lincoln used, where he pulled his political opponents into his administration.

America doesn't need another squeaker election that allows the Republicans to have enough Senate votes to block needed reforms. We need for Conservatism to be so crushed that it disappears from the political world altogether. Those people have cause nothing but trouble for a century.

I really enjoy seing these two together for some strange reason. I was not for her being the VP because she is such a dominant political figure, but I think with Barack and Hillary on the ticket, us democrats would win in the fall hands down. I haven't seen no one else that I would prefer as VP, especially as of right now. Our country is in such a turmoil. Having Bill and Hillary as the experience Washington figures to which Bill's 8 years in the White House was the best 8 years of my life. I think it would be best if these two got together and put our country back on the right track. Obama alone will not be able to do it by himself and I wouldn't expect him too, but I think with him and the Clinton's working together, we would have a chance to get our economy back how it was in the 90's when Bill was in office.

KEEP FLOPPING FISH KEEP FLOPPING AND MAYBE JUST MAYBE YOU'LL FALL INTO THE FRYING PAN OR THE DEEP FRIER WOULD BE BETTER. LOSER!

Dear Earthlings-

We can make it out of this crisis.

Lets all pull together and follow Senator Obama's lead.

We all bleed the same color. Together we stand, divided we fall-

It won't be easy but there's still hope through positive action and limitless faith!

I'm glad the Democratic party is finally coming together! Go Hillary! Go Barack!

UNITED WE'RE STRONGER

OBAMA (P) & CLINTON (VP) 2008-2014

NO TO "BUSH II" (MCCAIN), NO TO MR. WAR, MR. DEATH, MR. OOPS I BUMP MY HEAD A LOT, YOU ARE "WAR-SICK" BEACAUSE OF VIETNAM, YOU CAN'T BE PRESIDENT!

It's Hillary for VP! Go girl! They are unbeatable as a team, and will turn this country around! I believe in HOPE!

How much of her debt is SHE responsible for? We ALL know she should have gotten out of the race long before he won. Now, in addition to campaigning to win the presidency and focusing on what is necessary, he has to help her pay off her debts! Can't she use some of the $109M she and "Busy" Bill made last year?

Get the facts?
demand the truth?
we do? lol…
CNN funny stuff yet you will post racist comments and nothing about the Big Oil backing the McCain campaign, USS Forrestal, the McCain Bill killing the "Truth Bill" and any hopes to gain info of POWS, McCain not releasing his Military records, McCain taking "improper" donations from the Rothschild's, the lobbyist running his campaign…and much much more

Hillary, I love you, but even you (and Bill) can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. Obama just doesn't get it–your supporters do not want him for president, or any elected office for that matter. He has no courage or conviction; he's out for himself, not the American people.

Looks like Obama is after Clinton's fundraisers -again.

PUMA 08

Cnn is really pushing for this unity for it's own image. Through out the primaries cnn took part of the Clinton trashing that came right out of a republican play book. It's use of misogynistic pundits and commentators who were for Obama without balancing it with Clinton supporting pundits. With the Martins and Brazile use of hateful comments towards Hillary while Begala and Carville were banned. What will cnn do about it's image that is so widely mention thru out the internet as a bias news network. It's even funnier to have Shneider exclaim that some democrats are just disgruntle and will get over it and end up voting for Obama instead of admitting that Obama is a failed candidate. Mr. Turner is this what you had in mind.with youre News Network? How will you if possible fix your image.?More people voted for Sen Clinton than Obama, will you keep the minority while the rest turn to FOX NEWS for balance coverage of the elections.

i wish barack would throttle back ; and have more war room meetings about the up coming shedule, and the campaign stops and the specific needs of that particuilar area. he has the spirit of his mother it seems like he can't slow down he's been going and going from day one. born to roam. as far as the flip-flopping charges. this world is going thur "changing times". its the events and timing and many factors that go on around the world min by min . so things are subject to change. its not a flip flop, paul begala said as i tried to relate the opened ended hypothetical questions which youcan't jump on and answer them all.everything can't be solved at question and answer press conferences, take time when your answer the barrage of questions you reply to daily. i would say go back and look at youself in instant replay at how and why you answered the way you did .it will tell you want you need to do.

yay!

No more of my money unless Hillary is on the ticket PERIOD

Bush is headed to the G-8 summit and you need to read what he says about the oil situation "It took US awhile to get into this energy situation WE'RE in and it's going to take awhile to get out of it". He created this mess in 7 years which we didn't have before him and he takes no responsibility. In 232 years of building our great Nation it took Bush 7 years to tear it down and nobody stopped him.

is this really something newsworthy??…i'm all for obama slaughtering mccain and clinton helping with that….but lets save news space for something remotely interesting…

I first want to see Hillary publicly campaigning for Obama before I give any money to her. She could campaign in the small cities/towns of Ohio and Pennsylvania with Obama for example

To bad she has to help the arrogant weaker candidate raise money. If I were her in November I would pull the lever for McCain. Obama doesn't deserve to be president. All he does is read prepared speeches. He is afraid to debate because he doesn't know anything.

I will vote for Obama when I hear solutions from him. Solutions for the economy, solutions for raising the price of our currency in world markets. Till then he is just a Pied Piper and all the young folks are following him to the sea.

Do what you must Hillary but I will never vote for the obfuscating Obama!

And, I am not alone!

go obama!!!!!! clinton we love you!!!

Three things the Obama must do …

KISS … Keep It [the message] Simple Stupid

a) Democrats are always smarter and more intellectual about the case / rationale for their positions than Republican candidates but they also communicate in a way that comes across as complex. This intimidates and goes over the head of the general population. Few people (even then) thought Bush was smarter than Gore or Kerry and yet we see who won.

b) Remember Ross Perot’s simple charts? Some people made fun of him but those Simple Charts gave visual Americans a way to get the message.

c) Tell Simple Stories … always limit yourselves to making 3 points … it’s all most Americans can remember / recall.

GO ON OFFENSE … Don’t Play Defense

a) Keep McCain’s team off balance. He will revert to what he knows and what he knows will come across as dated.

b) Promote your bi-partisan work, your pro-soldier work, your belief in Christianity. Neutralize his calling cards and take him where he doesn’t want to go … Faith…

c) Be more of a MAN than McCain by contrast, not confrontation. You are slim, tall, with a slight build and those big ears… GOP has always tried to paint democrats as physical wimps (a wussy, a chump, a mark) . Don’t take any $h!# from them.

LET YOUR "REGULAR" SIDE COME OUT

a) Be seen playing a pickup basketball game every Friday no matter where you are … it will help you relax and unwind. McCain takes weekends off.

b) Lose the blazer and button-down open collar shirt more … hold “causal” rap sessions with folks of all ages …. I know you are a skinny guy but find something other than a starched shirt and/or a blazer to were on the campaign trail … when appropriate.

c.) Go to the Dollar Store …. go to Walmart…

Need to maintain this over the next 4 months at a minimum. It is not about a show for the public.

I am a democrat for McCain.

Whatever Sen Clinton does now, its not a vote for Obama anymore.

senator obama has asked the american people to help hillary by donating money to her campaign, that's a pretty big pill to swallow, 100 million dollars that was in there account, now they need help to pay off some bills, well i suggest they asked those powerful people with money for example harvey weinstein, elton john, and the others or that she pay it off with the monies they already have. Hillary promised to help work hard as she could to help senator obama win the nomination for the white house, Bill Clinton is stick licking his wounds, he supposed to be matured adult and ex president and what has he done to help the campaign NADA. ALWAYS REMEMBER WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND. if hillay does have sight on the white house in 2012 or 2016 .

is it me or the matching tie and dress a symbol of the future collectivness

the only democratic ticket I would vote for . . .

So I wonder what the deal is . . .

As a pledged delegate to our state convention in Colorado for Hillary Clinton, plus bidding for a seat as a national delegate but unfortunately did not become one, I have now become an OBAMA supporter. WE need to unite, but I also feel if Hillary is helping Obama with fundraisers, I only hope he truly considers her as a Vice-President running mate. Truly a DREAM TEAM no matter what the media says!!!

Obama is about to raise 200 million dollars fundraising with clinton signaling the beginning of the end of john mccain.

Democratic leaning voters need to realize that a vote for anyone other than Obama will help to perpetuate the typical white-male bias that has plagued our American politics since the country's beginnings. It is NOT an accurate reflection of the true diversity that our country supposedly prides itself upon. Start the change this year - elect Obama, and begin to see our political system rise above tyranny again, and be a symbol of true unity for all people on this Earth.

If I was in the same position as Hillary, I just could not do it!
Not that I am a sore loser rather Obama is now switching to all of Hillary's positions and her platform.

I feel sick!

Hillary

To all who are considering voting for McCain, not voting, or writing in Hillary's name in November, please know that this will hurt Hillary Clinton. If she is perceived (rightly or wrongly) as dividing the party and losing the November election to McCain, then her power and influence as a Senator and future candidate will diminish.

At this point, the best thing we can do for Hillary is to do what she says and vote for Obama in November.

On the other hand, if you think another 8 years of war in Iraq would be a good thing, then go ahead and vote for McCain.

He will lose this November. This country is still stuck in the 50's in regards to racism as far as I am concerned. People may say that they arent racist, but home alone at night, their greatest fear is a black president.

Considering that Obama's entire primary campaign was based on a hatefest against Clinton he hugely owes her. Without her he wouldn't have made it past even Iowa.

please Hillary don't do it again

Hispanic for McCain I happen to be a Dem and this clown OBAMA is a flip flop, a total Fruad and not for the Hispanic People. I am also a Hillary Supported and let me tell you my friend all of Hillary Latinos Connection is not going to support OBAMA. That is fact and you know it!!!! the Puertorican people in NY don't trust him, and I am sure the Mexican people to include the Cuban people and all the Hispanic BROTHERS AND SISTERS don't trust Obama. So my Dem Friend my advise to you is to get with the PROGRAM and Join our fellow LATINOS (Hispanic) people and join a true American Hero John McCain. Remember John McCain is a American First before his Party and The Hispanic people respect that very much!!!! Sabe lo que paso en nueva York cuando David Dinkie era el Alcarde Y que paso el no quiso al Ferrer Hispanic (LATINO) se Alcarde en Nueva York y eso los Puertoriquenos Y todos los hispanos no se OLVIDA!!!!!!!! That is why the LATINOS Nation will support McCain. This question to you? what has OBAMA done for the Hispanic people guess what NOTHING NADA!!!

I do not trust the Clinton's. It is obvious to me they are not happy about Barack & never seem like they are 100% going to campaign for him to get the Pres. Clinton's are still looking for Hillary to run for Pres next term if Barack loses & they secretely are hoping that will happen & it comes across that way to whenever you see Hillary or Bill.There will be NO favors from either Bill or Hillary. Obama does not need them, it would help of coarse, but he has enough without them. Obama for Pres. 08

Who cares what they do. The Dems will do to Hillary what they did to Lieberman because she isn't far enough left to make Howard Dean happy and Obama has been flip flopping so much nobody knows what he really stands for. An Obama presidency would be the best thing to happen to the GOP, by 2010 people will be sick of the socialist agenda and take Congress away from Pelosi and Reid and 2012 Obama won't be re-elected

While I am a Hillary Democrat and was happy to lend my support, I am charting a new course with John. I hope Hillary can reduce her debt, but I do not intend to be part of that. John now has my full support.

I'm amused that Bill Schneider and others insist that Hillary supporters will come home as soon as they get through the accepted levels of "grief."

Is the MSM really that blind to what's happening around them?

We Hillary supporters are not wallowing in "grief," we are justifiably angry about another stolen election - this time with the Democratic Leadership being the thief.

Perhaps the Boston Tea Party, the Revolutionary War, the Woman's suffrage movement and the Civil Rights movement would be better parallels for Bill and other to us when trying to measure angry Hillary supporters.

I dare say none of the revolutionaries in these rebellions would have "gotten over it" given a little time.

Re-think your premise, newsfolks.

Like usual, I will treasure my right to vote and I will vote for the person I think is the BEST candidate and will be the best leader.

Obama? Not so much.

No amount of threats, bully tactics, insults, name-calling, racebaiting will twist my arm.

Go away Obama cult members and take your bigotry, sexism and hate with you.

Don't listen to all the supposedly loyal Hillary supports. They are members of Chaos. No worries, Obama! The true supporters of Hillary will be with you in November because you represent what she believes. PUMA, and all the others were started in Phoenix. Coincidence? I don't think so…

From Nancy:
July 4th, 2008 5:23 pm ET

People are starting to figure out what change Senator Obama is talking about. He keeps changing his positions all the time. He said one thing during the primary season and now another. We in Illinois are use to that. He will say that was then and this is now.

Senator Obama was elected an Illinois state senator in 1995. In less than 10 years he advanced to a U.S. Senator and now is the presumptive Democratic nominee for President of the United States.
Plus throw in his unsuccessful race for Congress in 2000. That is why he has such a successful campaign staff. While he was voting present or not voting at all, he was campaigning. That is where his experience lies, campaigns. He likes the chase, but appears he doesn't care for the jobs once elected. Just think, the people of Illinois elected him their U.S. Senator in 2005. After he was sworn into office in 2006 he promoted his books for a year and for the past two years he has been running for President after promising us he would complete his first term as our Senator. Where is his job experience?

Despite all the money he has and the stellar campaign staff he has, he isn't far ahead in the polls. Plus, put in John McCain's poorly run campaign. Senator Obama should be way ahead. But he isn't. This tells me people are not convinced he is capable of being our leader.
You can only get by on good speeches and words so much. Actions speak louder than words.

True Democrats… do not cave in… do not be bullied, forced or coerced into voting for Obama by comments posted by Obama supporters such as this:
"If you throw this election to McCain, the OTHER half of the Democratic party will make sure Hillary Clinton gets nowhere near a presidential nomination ever again. "

This election is Obama's to lose… by the dirty campaign he ran, by playing the race card, by dividing the party, by exploting the situation to advance himself…not to benefit his country.

The blame will go to Obama and his nasty band of haters.

No one knows the future…Hill may never run again.

Just more empty threats to intimidate others into voting their way.

Unity is better than division. To lose gracefully is being a good sport. Everybody can't win whether it's the olympics, the Academy Awards, or Nobel Prize. We all have to be grown up adults. No one stole the election. We went through the process everyone agreed on and Obama followed those rules and won. He was even gracious and gave away delegates he did not have to.He is generous to help pay Hillary's debt. Emotionally healthy adults should be able to look at the situation, evaluate what happened and move on.No one likes a sore loser. It is not the American way.

obama is such a liar, he is flip flopping all over the place he sooooo looks like a fish ( freshman-unexperienced ). he will say anything and the zombies will follow. he sure does like a lot of republican ideas, the wolf is disguised as a democrate. follow him obama-nazis follow him over the edge and then maybe we can finally get ride of all the STUPID PEOPLE IN AMERICA. GO AHEAD AND FOLLOW HIM OVER THE CLIFF OF NO CHANGE ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! I'M SURE YOU ALL FEEL DUMB, OBAMA IS A RED TRYING TO POSE A BLUE.

Hillary Clinton needs to do this for the Democratic Party. She took her supporters for a ride. A long ride. She led a harsh campaign that tore this party apart. She was advised by many of her ardent supporters that she could create a division in the party yet she pressed on and on with many of her supporters trailing faithfully behind her. To many, this was a good thing but history will tell you that it wasn't.

I think that Hillary Clinton was the biggest flip flop of all. She supported a vote that wouldn't allow delegates to be seated if they brook the rules. She than flip flopped when it became clear to her that her only chance left was to get all of the delegates from Michigan and Florida seated. She flip flopped to advance her chances and many of her followers signed onto her flip flop and still to this day can't see what she did.

She created a situation that drove even a bigger division amonst the party and yet some of her followers can't see that, either.

This very same person, who clearly aided in the division of this party is now willing to mend fences and start working again for the good of the party. She's doing this because she believes in the party. SHE BELIEVES IN HER PARTY. Yet some of her followers, who were just followers, not concerned American citizens, can't let go even though Hillary can, are going to vote against her and for McCain. Unbelievable, but true.

Hillary, I salute you for the courage it takes for you to accept the election process as it was and to move forward to work toward the common goals that you and Senator Obama favor for the good of the Ameriacn people. This is what is important to me. I think that with your help you will help us to elect a man that has promised to work for us, the American people. This country needs change. Both you and Senator Obama have promised us that change and I for one am putting my trust in yours and Senator Obama's hands. It is time for us to all to come together and move forward and insure our children and our Grandchildren that the next for years are just the beginning of the good that is to come.

Thank you, Senator Clinton!

OK, although I didn't initially agree with helping Hillary with her debt, I think all true democrats must come together and donate. We need to win the whitehouse. We all must stick together. If you have something negative to say, keep it to yourself. True Democrats will unite and undercover Republicans that pose as Dem's will type something negative!

OBAMA / SEBELIUS 08!

just add her as your VP already!

We love Hillary… but we vote on real issues not JUST on personality…

We will not simply "follow" our "Leader." After all, she is technically no longer our leader but now just a party tool for Obama.

Obama followers told me for months that Hill was a liar. You convinced me- so I think she is NOW lying about her support for Obama.

We think for ourselves… we don't just worship and follow.

The dream ticket for 08,,Go OBAMA GO..Hillary for your v.p.we wan,t you in the white house,,pls don,t make a mistake

It's nice to see Hillary and Obama out campaigning together. I hope that if Obama wins, he nominates Hillary to be sec'y of Health and Human Services where she can work on her health care plan for America.

Vote A Straight Democratic Ticket

EXCEPT for Obama. We can then "Have our cake and eat it too".

A. When you vote in the November General Election leave the ballot for president blank, write in Hillary Clinton, or vote for Ralph Nader or McCain. It is your choice and it won't make any difference as long as you select all Democrats on the rest of the ballot.

B. Democrats will easily win the 2/3rd majority in the house and senate to block any McCain veto. It will even be fun watching McCain and the few Republican that will be left scream and cry while the Democrats end the war in Iraq, take back our country from the wealthy, fix the tax structures which are leaning toward the rich, and bring back good American jobs.

C. Than to top it off we will have the opportunity to elect a patriotic Democratic President in 2012

McCain will need congressional approval for near everything he does, and with a 2/3rd Democrat majority in the house and senate Democrats can over ride his vetos. That is why Democrats don't have to be concerned if McCain is elected. Then in 4 years we will be able to elect a patriotic Democrat as President

Im voting McCain just to teach those sore-loser Hillary voters a lesson… Im not a woman or have any interest in the abortion rights issue, But I will be laughing when the McCain supreme court dissolves abortion rights and many other freedoms americans have.. You get what you deserve..

Senator Clinton is doing everything she can for Obama. Let's hope he has the decency to reciprocate by giving her a choice of what she wants. Let's face it. If his opponent had been another male he never would have won the nomination to begin with.

Obama/Clinton 08′—-i know CNN likes the sound of that-they've been quietly pushing to see those two run together.

I am a strong Hillary supporter, and I know I will NOT vote for Obama. Whether or not I vote for McCain depends on who his VP is.

I would have voted for Hillary if she had been the nominee, but since the DNC and the media have annointed Obama, I will very likely just do a protest vote this election for the first time in 35 years.

hillary supporters are too cheap to help their candidate with her debt,but,they'll be all over the blogs,talking smack,about how they were cheated out of the nomination ,by 18+ million voters,who supported their candidate with more than just blabbering idiocy.put your money where your mouth is,losers.

Tell you what?

Apologize to Hillary for the bias, the unfairness, the hatred, the insults, the disrespect, the sexism, the mocking, the jeering, the ridiculing and the slanted media coverage…

Then we may reconsider.

I love you more NOW than EVER before, Hill.

You rock.

You will always have my vote.

No other democrat will get my vote again… until the party restores its own integrity, principles and ideals.

DON'T MAKE ME SICK!

Obama is an unqualified senator who, by looking at his campaign against HRC, has little regard for women.

As a woman I am sick and tired of voting for the same old all male presidential tickets.
After what happened in this democratic primary that turned so many democrats away, I cannot vote for Barack.

He is NOT Mr. Clean. He plays dirty politics. He manipulates the media, he strategically used race as a shield against criticism and as asword to destroy his opponents. He is backed by the ethanol lobby (bad for greenhouse gases). He flip flopped on public financing, on NAFTA, Iraq and FISA.

And these nasty, insulting, forceful Obama supporters expect me to vote for such a weak candidate. He is seriously flawed and so is the democratic party.

Give me Hillary or give me any OTHER candidate, even McCain.

Young voters beware,neither party has your best interests at heart.Pick the lesser of the two evils now and start an independent party soon.The Creditcard Republicans have run up a bill you may never pay off and the Democrats have sold you out too.

As a 54 year old white woman who has seen and experienced a lot, including the civil rights movement. It's frightening to see how racists so many of my fellow American's remain. The Puma's are barely able to hide their racism and feelings of entitlement behind the veil of feminism. Clinton was and never will be a good candidate. Get over it. If you succeed in your hatefulness and McCain becomes president don't cry to me when he takes our rights away, sends more of our children to a war he will never end, and puts in more conservative judges. I will be the first to tell you "I told you so".
By the way pay put your energy into paying off the millionaire's (Clinton's) debts.
Obama and anyone but Clinton!

As a Clinton supporter, I do not support Obama because of his inexperience, his wishy-washy attitude, indecisiveness, and the fact that he seems to shape his opinions, usually after changing them several times, when they don't poll well. He comes off as weak, and even if Clinton is his VP choice, I'm gonna vote for someone else.

And FYI, I am an independent who was voting for Clinton, not a democrat.

Still not going to vote for him.

Just can't vote for someone who does not have experience, just makes good speeches, stayed in a church for twenty years that was unAmerican, wife only now proud to be American, his flip-floy remarks on Iraq and his hateful, disrespectful supporters.

One thing I do know, is that I will vote.

I guess after being exposed as a flip-flopper Obama will need any help he can get.

I sure wouldn't mind having her back in the race.

Obama is not a flip flopper. I wish people would call it what it is. Lying. He said what he had to say to beat Clinton, not because he meant it. Now he sings another tune. I don't want faith based anything.

The Iraq war is a tragedy. Americans are losing jobs and homes. What else has to be wrong?

Well, it certainly is 'change' for him, not for us. When his new attitude impacts his stockpile of money he may wish to reconsider. If he wants to blow his own chances he's allowed to do that. But he shouldn't blow mine. At a time when public opinion of politicians is lower than ever he just broght it down several more notches. Thanks Obama.

My question is: Why should American taxpayers, who some are suffering economic hardships, themselves; be asked to pay the debts, of the Clinton's failed presidential run. When they clearly have the funds and means, to repay them, tthemselves. As a country, we also should have wide-spread "fundraisers," thru out the Nation, to offset the increasing rise, in home mortgages; don't you think? Now, that would be a "Real change"………………………………

Obama writes in Dreams of my Father:
"My speeches with pretty words don't make it so, I give them because I like the applause, it gives me a cheap thrill, that's all."

There was never change to believe in. He just wanted to hear the applause and feel the love because he needed the love as he lacks self love and that is why he abused drugs.

Now he is addicted to the approval and attention of the public.

Hillary Clinton, tested through trying times and survived and becoming even stronger, vetted in many ways, proven progressive with 35 year record successfully advocating for our country is the reason why Hillary's people will not waiver from their position.

This election cannot be based on data from the past. There has been extreme divides and distrusts created within the Democratic Party that has never happened before as this was history and the leaders engaged in terrible exlusionary rigging of the election.
The divides are racial and gender and socieconomic.

The healing will not happen and the Democrats have suck their ship.

Their only salvation is to make Hillary the nominee as she carried the traditional and most stable Democratic party base.

Why should Obama have to pay off her debt? It was her fault she kept going even after she knew she was going to lose. And it just goes to show: if you can't manage your campaign's money, how can you manage a country's money?

For all the good Bill Clinton's presidency did for America, that couple really is incredibly narcissistic.

It's not just Cinton supporters. Ralph Nader supporters don't embrace Obama either and our movement is growing online even if you block us out of national coverage.

Lack of support for Obama has everything to do with Obama being a weak choice for presumptive nominee. I

It is becoming increasingly obvious that he is unable to hold a strong position and fight for it - look at recent 'changes' on abortion rights, handgun control, wiretapping, and Iraq.

If Clinton is not on the ticket, and if she does not win on the floor of the convention, my vote will go to Ralph Nader or to Cynthia McKinney in the Green Party, because I cannot in good conscience support such an ill-prepared candidate who stole the nomination of his party.

When Obama was fighting against Hillary in the primaries, Obama was emerging as a Strong Leader.

Now, the more Obama takes Hillary's support, the more Obama becomes Weak Leader.

At the same time, Hillary is emerging more Stronger

Are you willing to let HATE displace HOPE? That's what it all comes down to.

I like Senator Hillary Clinton; however, I was very concerned about some of the negative statements that she proclaimed about Senator Obama during the primay season. Many of Senator Clinton's comments conditioned her supports to build a strong wall of resistance against Senator Obama.

If Senator Clinton's supporters care or ever cared about Equal Pay for Equal Work or wives who were dumped by their husbands for newer models, they should not vote for Senator McCain. All women should google "Senator McCain's First Wife". There they will find a painful story. Warning: Bring a tissue. The first Mrs. McCain is barely getting by while Senator McCain is living with his much younger wife in the lap of luxury. It burns me up. The first Mrs. McCain should renegotiate the terms of her alimony.

Polls show Clinton supporters shunning Obama. The entire US needs to shun Obama!

I still won't vote for him.

Once I would have readily voted for Obama were he the nominee of the party.

But not after the hate, insults, vulgar behavior I witnessed in this primary.

Not after the unfair, biased, hateful, disrespectful treatment of HRC and all her constituents.

Obama: the Audacity of Hope; Clinton: just plain Audacity. BUT … had she clinched the nomination, I would have forgiven all the negativity and voted for her just to keep McCain out of the White House, unlike so many angry Clinton supporters who seem determined to sabotage the November election. It makes no sense and, I suspect, is probably just a lot of talk.

Per: Oregon July 4th, 2008 5:03 pm ET

Two reasons: (1) racism of elderly blue collar Democrats, and (2) entitlement mentality of white feminists.
______________________________________________________

No… Three reasons:
Sexism of young affluent men of both races.

Entitlement mentality of African Americans and the young "new " democrats.

A hateful disrespect of fellow Americans and of presidential candidates by the Obama cult.

THE EMPEROR'S NEW CLOTHES …
Could anything be more disengenuous than Hillary Cinton fund raising for Barack Obama? … or, would extortion be the right word? Us Clinton supporters are expected to just fall in line, and cough up our hard earned money for Obama … NOT !!! We never wanted Obama, who was selected, not elected by the DNC.

Glad to see Clinton and Obama working together. Whether they decide to run together or not, they understand that we cannot have 4 more years of: the Iraq War/ No Health Care/Jobliness/Lost jobs/Foreclosures/Sub-prime predatory lending/"No Child Left Behind" where 50% of our students have dropped out of high school in many American cities. If Senator Clinton's followers understand that Senator Clinton will still be there for them and that Senator Obama will also, then the Democrats will win. If you want more of the same and possibly worse, then your non-vote or support of Senator McCain will be a big mistake.

Whenever Obama and Clinton appear together, there is more chemistry and excitement in the campaign.

Let's go Barach. Energy, determination, fight and 18,000,000 voters comes with Hillary.

We want an Obama-Clinton ticket!

As soon as she gets enough money to pay off her bad debt we won't see them together anymore. I wish the PUMA's would support her by giving her the money she needs to pay off the debt for a poorly managed campaign. And she is supposed to be able to lead a country in a recession. Ha Ha Ha!
She showed her abilities in further dividing the country by race and income. I will remember her remarks, innuendo's and "misspeaks" forever!
Love you Obama!

Good, this is a time for all Hillary supporters and Hillary/mccain to attend to help retire Hillary's debts.

Hillary supporters, now is the time for you to go to hillary's website and donate.

Never again this intra-party hate.

Never again the racebaiting to divide the party.

Never again a fixed primary.

The democratic party lost its way.

It drooled over the idea and marketed concept of an Obama.

They savaged Hillary, swiftboated her out of the race, and trashed and bashed their own base.

Insults and hate do NOT win over voters.

Obama thought he could smooth talk us back to him.
The DNC was counting on the Anti-Republican sentiment to bring us back to the party.
B
