I would Never vote for McCain or Clinton with their "Old Washington" experience. Our nation is in a mess because of the "Old Wahington" way of doing things.

We need someone new, someone with brains, someone with new ideas to lead us in the right direction.

We need Obama !!
Only Obama can heal our country.

Here comes the fear mongering from the Obama people who rail against fear mongering.

Roe vs Wade – guess the newbie young new democratic women get to pick up where we racist old bitter soon-to-die old white women left off.

Conservative Court- Well Sandra turned out to be one of my favorites after all, so no more fears about that. May teach the "new" democrats not to use HATE against fellow democrats and then expect unity. Besides, senile and aged as we all are, we are too old to care about the FUTURE. court.

The draft. Well... democrats are the ones most likely to reinstate the draft- it is, after all, a more democratic approach to serving and defending our Nation.

McCain is going to have Roe V Wade overturned. He voted against equal pay for women. Cindy's lobbyists worked worked agaisnt Mother's Against Drunk Drivers to eliminate alcohol content on beer containers. Is this who women want to vote for-out of spite? A lot of you will be running around with out noses after you've cut them off to spite your face(s).

It still amazes me how some of you Clinton supporters (and fake supporters who are really republicans) continue to ignore the fact that Obama had more pledged delegates, more states won, and as many if not more popular votes if you count the caucous states.

Obama did not steal the election. The Super Delegates were going to have to go one way or the other and they went with the person who was leading.

Get over it in your own time but stop trying to act like Clinton was the winner and had something stolen from her.

Obama is adding her people because she did have some quality people working for her. She just didn't run her campaign in a way that let her win.

By: Robert

Robert — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 18:39:21 +0000

Hillary supporters who say they will vote for McCain are clearly irrational, basing their decision on bitterness, emotion, and spite. Anyone who can so easily swing from being a Clinton Democrat to a McCain Republican clearly hasn't thought through the issues in an intelligent way. They are deluding themselves.

You PUMA bloggers sound more and more like 3rd graders every day. It's actually funny because you can guess the responses the minute a ticker like this goes up. How about all you PUMA bloggers stay on your hate-filled websites that you've created. Please just go re-register as a republican and spare us the hate. I get the funny feeling that some of you have always been registered republicans anyway.

Hey thats great!! Another member of the losing Clinton team joins Obama's campaign. Well they sure did a great job on Hillary's campaign that was supposed to win this nomination by Feb. Maybe she can share with Obama how to blow a huge lead in the polls to a first term Senator nobody knows. lol. Welcome to President McCain.

It is sad to see so many people so fill with hate or they wer just Republicans posing as Democrats. Why on God's good earth would you be for a certain party and because your candidate was not elected to be the nominee, you will chose to support the other party's candidate for president even after your choice ask that the eventual nominee be supported. Sorry, but many of these people are hiding their dislike for the fact that Obama is a black behind so-call experience.

FRIEDA....I am from NY and have not seen Hillary fulfill any of the promises she made to us in her Senatorial bid. She has less elected experience than Obama, she ran a cmpaign into the red so how could she run the country's budget? I don't care how many times she runs for President..she will NEVER get my vote and while all you puma people are threatening not to vote for Obama just think what the Obama voters will do when Hill does run again.......NOTHING!!!!!! You people are not the only ones with long memories. When you get the rust off your brains, think about it.

Joann –

Again you are one of those people who only takes her information from the media. Obama has committed to 16 months. He said this on Thursday when he clarified the meaning of refine.

I really wish most of you would actually listen to the live feeds on CNN so that you get the whole story. If I can suffer through listening to McCain's speeches, you can take the time that you spend reciting the media and listen to the actual live feeds for the REAL INFORMATION.

Obama is clearly the best choice of all those who have stepped forward to campaign for the office of President of the USA. There are a lot of hurt feelings out there among Hillary's supporters. Her candidacy is over. She is a loyal Democrat and supports the best choice, Obama. Her loyal supporters, who are also fine citizens, will get over their disappointment and support Obama. The rest of the hateful people who claim to support her will go ahead and attempt to shot themselves in the head by voting for McCain or not voting at all. There is nothing anyone can do about that. But we, as Democrats and loyal citizens of this great country, need to focus on saving our beloved country and turning around the incredible disaster of the last eight years by electing Barack Obama President of the United States of America along with a democratic Congress. God Bless America!!!

Hillary EARNED our votes based on her track history, her work, her qualifications, her experience, her platform and her dedication.

Obama has NONE of those things.

Our vote will NOT simply transfer to Obama.

Remember... we WERE already democrats... and the travesty of this primary drove us away.

We are lifelongs... "outreach" isn't needed for us. We were in and now we are leaving.

Silly dems.

It is so important that we DO NOT elect a Democrat to the White House! Just look at what the inept Democrat party has stood for over the years! The Republicans are not perfect but they stand for true American values. Democrats are from the same vein as the ACLU who have taken our country and handed it over to the left which includes welfare deadbeats, immoral anti-americans and the silent foreign invaders. Just say NO to the Democrat party! I love my country and you are not going to change it into a marxist government. Shame on all Democrats!!

I will not be held hostage by the democratic party over Roe v. Wade. If you recall Byron White was a democratically appointed supreme court justice who is staunchly anti-choice. I won't vote on a single issue and I won't vote for Obama. Hiring a Hillary aide is meaningless to me. Hillary as VP would be meaningful.

PUMA,

If you're really undergoing mental anguish, this board is not for you. Go get some help for the mental anguish and come back after November.

Did you ever stop to think that your mental anguish might be because you refuse to accept the fact that the world is changing. It does that sometimes. Just when we think you're really okay with the Model T, Ford comes out with a new car, go figure.

Move on PUMA, the world will not wait for you.

It amazes me the length the media is prepared to go in order to manufacture some fake controversy. If the highly educated people at CNN cannot define "refine", then I am very shocked , as they did try their best to portray Obama's statement as some sort of flip flop with no evidence to support it. I have sent a copy of the Oxford English dictionary to Wolf Blitzer and his cohorts, I hope it'll help them understand grammar just a little bit more and stop twisting words to get more ratings.

Obama can sign on as many Clinton workers as he wants but he will not get my vote nor will the Democratic Party get my vote or my money! Mr. Obama and his kool-aid drinkers can have the party! The party is no longer for the life long members that has supported it. They gave it to the left wing faction and it will never be party it was!

To all you brainwashed Obama supporters, like Chi, Obama needs every vote he can get. It's unAmerican for any of you to say that someone shouldn't vote, just because they support someone that they think truly is THE best candidate of the two. You're complete morons and this entire election is an "obama"nation (translates to abomination) of Democracy, which no longer exists in this country. I am neither Democrat nor Republican. I vote for the person I think is best qualified. That was Hillary until once again, the female was forced to submit.

To Bob who says:Take that, all you punk PUMAs out there in Amnesia Land…

Take what?

The pandering after the slaughtering of the party ideals, by Obama?

Sorry, but I don't think that will sell to all the TRUE democrats who have fought for the party ideals of freedom, equality and justice for all over the past decades.

You will have to take the fact that Obama has lost the democratic base for the democratic party. This will cost Obama votes.

My conscience is clear- I cast MY ballot for the very BEST candidate- no racial games, no gender bias, no filthy insults, no hatred, no forceful coercion of the democratic process.

TAKE THAT!

There will be more voters that will come in as women and help Obama win this election because they understand we can'nt afford another Bush term that is what will happen if Mccain is elected.
