Stop being haters….voting for john mccain is like voting for 4 more years of bush and hillary didn't want the vp nom anyways she wanted to be number 1 or nothing @ all

She know that with her it a field day for the puma too mush Q&A about Bill and the money has after leaving the white house,Mcfools camp will let go or the fact.Joe will the best man for the job.

What do I think about the design / timing of the unveiling of the VP? I think it couldn't have been more brilliantly orchestrated–in keeping with democratic principles, too.
Remember that 3 a.m. call? It came, but not at the White House. And, not for the President. Here is the irony: As much of a tease as it was, the unveiling was designed to put the power to the people again. AMERICA got the 3 a.m. call. We were so stunned because we haven't seen anything resembling democratic leadership in about …… eight years. (As an educator, struggling to work under the NCLB mandates since 2001, walking through the last two Presidential terms has been a slow and frightening walk with the four horsemen.)
I like to think that in some small way, I answered this administration's first 3 a.m. phone call — the one that brought one of MY "Jane Democrat" civic responsibilities to the apron of the great proscenium on Monday. Our 3 a.m. call signaled the moment that all people in favor of a FUTURE put animosities and egos aside and get this democracy back in motion again.
POWER to the people.

I am a woman who thinks highly of Hillary Clinton and admires her achievements. She has broken barriers and changed the role of gender in U.S. politics. She would have perfomed well in the White House, but as president, not as veep. I'm looking to 2016 for an unbeatable Hillary Clinton.

Hillary Clinton wants to steer her own ship, and will continue to break barriers. I am glad that she will do this under the Clinton flag. And we will no doubt see the Clinton flag unfurled at the 2008 Democratic Convention. Let's honor Hillary's 2008 race, pledge to support her in the future, and elect Obama-Biden in the fall. By supporting Obama-Biden and becoming a Democratic Party powerhouse in her own right, Hillary and her 18 million supporters will burnish her reputation and position her for many more great things, including leadership of the Senate AND the presidency.

Let's give Obama-Biden our support, while continuing to honor Hillary Clinton and the 18 million who supported her. Hillary for President , 2016!

I can't belive there are still HRC people out there saying the won't vote for Obama. There was a primary people, and she lost ! She fought the good fight and was defeated by a person who has a different vision of America. A vision that most democrats were in favor of.
It's your choice to vote for McCain, yep, 4 more years of what we have experenced for the last 8 years.. Your either democrats or your not.
If you don't stop this nonsence soon you will give Mac the white house.

Anonymous, Roe is against Roe now anonymous. You can't have a country that prides itself of the protection of individual freedom except when it is convenient not to.

C'mon, let's be realistic: even though HRC was probably the best veep choice, to have two minorities on one ticket would be a recipe for disaster. This way, the dems actually have a shot at swing voters. Sebellius was obviously not going to get picked, she just had the potential to carry Kansas, so Hillary is the first woman in line for a prominent role in Obama's cabinet. I wouldn't be suprised if Hillary doesn't get a cabinet role, but still, she will for certain be the president in 2016, so for now, HRC supporters, let's get Obama in the White House; I really don't think we need another four years of Bush.

Dear Hillary Supporters: If Hillary had won the election, then I hope she would have had the right to pick whomever she wanted to for VP. At this point, none of us have been privy to the conversations between Obama and the Clintons, but I am confident Hillary will get a significant position in the new administration which will not only highlight her strengths but help heal her candidancy for a future shot at president. Please remember that Obama has been very gracious in trying to work with the Clintons to ensure they have a respectful place at the convention. Let's give him his due and recognize the efforts he has made. Moreover, let's not forget that this election is not about obama or clinton, it's about the future of country. If you step back and look at things from that perspective, then you will see that mccain will be a disaster not only for women and our country but for our children. Let's stand up and take back our country from the Republicans, and special interests groups!

To the PUMAs -

I understand your disappointment in Senator Clinton not getting the nomination (and yes I voted for her). What I do not understand is the lack of common sense.

Voting for McCain is a vote for our troops staying longer in Iraq and Afghanistan, the possibility of another war with Iran which brings with it the very real possibility of the Draft being reinstated (it does not take a military analyst to realize that our troops are spread thin), a greater tax burden being placed on people who are already over taxed, more tax breaks for the wealthy and corporate America (who already have ridiculous tax breaks - think oil companies) a reversal of the reproductive rights (abortion and birth control) that women now have, etc.

I just have one question - are you going to accept the responsibility that goes alone with your vote?

I do not see how you Obamanuts can be so happy about Lugers congratulaing Biden . You know he is Just an old white Crinkled man like McCain. Isn't that what you left wingers are always saying. Shoot according to you people he should be senile. I don't get you liberals. What a great talent you people must posses to tell the difference between one old white crinkled man than the other. AMAZING.

I am a woman and I support Obama/Biden. I am happy Obama picked Biden. I would not have been happy if he picked Clinton. Just because she was second in the primaries does not mean she should have been VP. I think if he picked Clinton the Republicans would have had more than enough fuel to attack and win. With Biden, Obama forces his critics to calm down on his experience on foreign policy. And for all those women out there who are now saying they will vote for McCain then you can kiss your rights good bye! A McCain presidency will erode women's rights, African American rights, and so on. If that happens then I am going to hold you Hillary Supporters responsible because you sold out the party! We need to take back our country and get us back on track. 4 years of McCain is for more years of Bush policy. I hope you Hillary supporters can live with that when you make that choice.

Great job! This is the combination we need for this great country. We now have the total package to win in November.

Wow, I have to wonder about people who say "No Hillary, I'm voting McCain"!

Are you really Hillary supporters or are you just pretending and trying to stir up the pot? The differences between John "more of the same" McCain and Barack Obama couldn't more startling. Obama proposes moving away from the republicans' idea of reward the rich and maybe the trickles will help everyone else. The last 30 years couldn't make it more obvious what studies have shown, that the economy, businesses, and all citizens do much better and even are generally happier under Democratic administrations than with republicans in charge.
Wars, spying on it's own citizens, unwarranted arrests, indefinite detention, polarization of all political discussions, etc, etc., are all the result of what George Jr has brought us. Now John McCain wants to continue and, in some cases, go further than Bush with those same policies.
It is time America regained its top position in the world, financially, influentially, and morally. How can that happen when we refuse to acknowledge that the rest of the world does exist and needs to be a partner in so many dire issues we all face.
John Sidney McCain wants to continue fighting the VietNam war as a solution for all that ails us. And as far as experience, someone please explain to me what experience he has and how it is relevant. I am curious to know, because from where I sit, his experience has not given him any way to actually use it for the good of this nation

I am glad that Hillary Clinton praised Barack for his VP choice. God has GREAT things planned for her future. She is a great women and I am thankful for her kind words. Now, I want to vote for Barack/Biden and use my engery to hold them accountable for working for the people of the United States of America.

She is just playing the game. Do you really hear any enthusisasm in her voice. She knows she was screwed over and the election was taken from her. She is just going thru the moves. Do you believe she should give a crap. I don't.

I am a woman and I hope the PUMA women get over it soon!

OBAMA-BIDEN '08

As an Obama supporter, all I can say to those bitter Hillary backers is that if the roles were reversed, I'd be voting for her. Because we Democrats must win. Win to end the war, restore the economy, bring fairness back to the tax code, find a viable solution for healthcare for all, and restore the image of America with the rest of the world. You can't honestly tell me you think McCain/Romney will do a better job of that than Obama/Biden. Think of your kids, think of your grandkids, I know I do, every night, and I believe Barack and Joe do too. C'mon people, enough ranting, let's turn our anger where it really deserves to be directed - at this administration, at the party that wants four more years of the same, BEAT MCAIN!

Americans are sour losers!!!

I was a HUGE Hillary booster. Time to clam up and support the ticket. Hillary is on board, and so should all of her supporters. Let's move on and get to work! Obama/Biden!

puma people you need to grow up. because if Obama fail it will be people like you fault. and when Hillary trys her bid at the presidency guest what she would be blame and her supports andHillary would lose the support from majority of black america and 18 million Obama supports. there is no way the Clintons can win without the Black vote. So dont hate the player hate the game. Obama /Biden 08 .

It's time fo ryou Clinton supporters (if that's what you really are) to stop acting like whiny, spoiled, immature ignorant sore losers and get with it. If you want to reinstitute the draft, lose your job, end up paying $12 per gallon for gas and put the U.S. in an eight year depression, by all means continue with your temper tantrum and vote for McCain but whatever you choose to do on election day, please just shut up and stop screaming and hollering already. Hillary Clinton will not be i the White House again for a long long time (hopefully never again) and you PMSing idiots better get used to it. It doesn't matter of course because Obama will be president whether you insecure bigoted wingnuts trying to disguise yourself as Hillary supporters like it or not. Please pick up your marbles and take your stupid, childish behinds home already.

Has anyone considered that maybe Hillary doesn't want to be VP? Maybe in their conversations, Obama and Hillary agreed that she'll play another role in an Obama administration. This is politics and a lot happens behind the scenes that we don't see.

Well it's certainly a good choice, Hillary's essentially blessed the choice, so now if Obama loses he will have noone to blame but himself. If he wins, great. If not, Go Hillary 2012!

No Clinton means no Obama vote for me and millions of others. Way to go Obama………and old white guy…………..there's change. wink wink.

Finally.. The end of the Hillary Puma people….. Puma haters please move on….

Obama/Biden 08

How could anyone call themselves a democrat and vote for McCain? A President McCain would lead to the reversal of Roe vs. Wade, set-backs for women, gays, latinos and all minorities. The poor will get poorer and the rich richer.

A vote for McCain makes you a Republican so call yourself what you are.

Remember now it was Hillary Clinton that took herself out of the VP race by wanting her name printed for nomination of President at the DNC in Denver. So Barack Obama made a good, sound choice with Senator Joe Biden as his VP.

I am sure we all will be satisfied with Obama/Biden in office come November.

Thanks.

I'm confused… didn't a handful of you former "Hillary Clinton" supporters push for her to put her name into nomination in the Denver convention? Aren't a couple of you still writing her name in to be President in November? I thought I read that a few of you will vote for McCain who's platform is polar opposite to the Obama/Clinton/Democratic platform?

Then… why so upset about her not being picked as VP? You can't have it both ways. Either you supported Hillary in her support of Obama, and by doing so would have opened the way for her to be VP. Or you supported those of her "supporters" that pushed for her to be nominated as President after Obama won the nomination.

By saying that you would only vote for Obama if he picked Hillary, and given how devisive she was toward the end of her run, she was pushed away from any possiblity of serious consideration for VP.

Sue, I understand your disappointment, but I don't think Obama was ignoring women, my gut says his inner circle knows a lot more dirt on Bill than they want to publicly say, and that's why he couldn't have picked Hillary. It would have been like if he picked John Edwards before the public new about the affair.

Just this May there was a rumor that "fix news" was preparing a dossier of women that Bill had cozied up to after Monica if Hillary got the nomination. Obama just couldn't bring all of that to his campaign.

The real way that he's remembering women, is by supporting our right to choose, giving us back a $1,000 on our taxes (if we make less than $150,000), helping to support a more universal healthcare plan, and having a woman like Michelle at his side who is strong, educated, and can do more than nod her head and smile adoringly.

OBAMA-BIDEN '08

Remember now is was Hillary Clinton that took herself out of the VP race by wanting her name printed for nomination of President at the DNC in Denver. So Barack Obama made the correct and right call with Joe Biden as his VP.

I am sure we all will be satisfied with Obama/Biden in office come November.

Thank you.

Obama apparently knows his history. In 1796, Adams was elected President, and Jefferson Vice President. They clashed over many issues - states' rights, foreign policy, etc. It created unneeded tension in the administration.

The same applies to Obama and Clinton. They've fought too hard, too bitterly, and with too little room to compromise that it would be nearly impossible to reconcile. Clinton supporters need to realize this and support Obama. To go from Clinton to McCain, as a quarter of Clinton supporters are doing, is a dramatic change. Stick with your principles and vote for the party that upholds them.

People like "AsBee" are the reason McCain is pulling ahead in the polls. Seriously, don't let grudges get in the way of your judgment. Biden was a really smart move for Obama.

I am happy Hillary is not on a losing ticket. NoObama!

The more I read the angrier I get. I am really one pissed off Hillary supporter. Was the 3am notification necessary? That was a very low blow to Hillary and her supporters. Shows what a major prick Obama is. Staying home in November.

The Mark Penn staffers (PUMA, etc) are working overtime today.

SUE, Michigan- I agree. It is beyond belief why Obama did not choose Hillary. Kerry picked Edwards and they weren't even as close.

And I agree that it is a slap in the face, esp to women. Obama is a fool.

Thank you Obama, you have made my choice easier.

NO HRC NO OBAMA

As a registered Democrat, and Hillary supporter, it never ceases to amaze me how completely ignorant democrats can be. Those that would rather plunge this country into further war and chaos by choosing another self proclaimed "Maverick" who goes against just about everything we Democrats stand for, just because their first democratic choice was not nominated, are insane.

It's like rooting for China during the olympics because your favorite olympian (Michael Phelps) didn't qualify for the medal rounds, even though other americans did. Where is your loyalty to what you believe in?!?

Tell me you would vote for McCain because you truly believe in what he says he will do and I can totally dig that. But switch sides and basically become a traitor to your party just because Hillary wasn't nominated for Pres or VP? These are the acts of 5 year olds and ignorant people. You should all be ashamed of yourselves.

I vote for who I believe will best guide this country in the right direction. Hillary didn't make it. Ok. I accept that. But I sure as hell ain't going to screw this country by being spiteful and vote for another Bush in McCain. That's the worst thing Hillary supporters can do to themselves. If McCain gets elected and things get worse (and they will under his rule), you will have yourselves to blame. Vote with your brain and heart, and not with your ego.

MS. Sue of Michigan - please unite now if you are truly a DEMOCRAT. The people have chosen OBAMA and Hillary lost - that's why there is a thing called PRIMARY where we select our party's nominee…it's as simple as that. Wouldn't you like and be proud that we are going to have an intelligent and thoughtful President in front of a podium - I can not take anymore eight years of a joker in front of the world audience - AMERICA is way better than that!!! Let's have Statesman in the WH instead of a cowboy and a so called maverick. Am sure HRC will have a prominent place in the cabinet but OBAMA need not shout now in the convention or in his campaign - just unite and let;s pray our PARTY wins this election.

OBAMA/BIDEN08 - am fired up!!!!

See ya in 2012, Sen Clinton. Hopefully the Kool Aid will wear off by then.

Registered Democrat for McCain.

Sue, Clinton attacks against Obama did not leave any room for her to be a VP.

What a dissappointment - VOTE MCCAIN!!! I am a gay democrat, have been all my life, and I WILL NOT VOTE for this phony disgrace of a ticket!!

You had better believe that this Hillary supporter is jumping ship…McCain 2008!

Sue from Michigan - you better do some research on Joe before you go off like that. He is the LEAST wealthy person in the entire Senate and actually listed is net worth at -$300,000…yes, NEGATIVE $300,000, a couple of years ago. That means YOU are probably more wealthy than he is.

I love this choice of Obama's. He went for integrity, back-bone, character and experience, and he got it! Those of you still moaning and groaning over HRC need to send her a buck or two so she can hold onto her 100+ million personal funds, and resolve her campaign debt, then get on the bandwagon or shut-up! Your continued whining is beginning to make a great many of us quite ill!

It's 3:00am, and your children are safely asleep. Your phone rings, it's a text message…. "Change… You Can Believe In.."

Obama/Biden '08/12

NO HRC— NO OBAMA.

To those of you who still think Hillary should be CROWNED, please remember the virtue of good sportsmanship…..she LOST, fair & square, to the better candidate…I will NEVER undertand why you think that she is ENTITLED….sure, maybe a high position in the cabinet would be appropriate, but honestly, with you folks trying to tear our party apart, you CERTAINLY are not helping her chances….you probably cost her the VP slot….you are the "whiners" the Republicans love…Hillary, because of you, has lost her legacy…Bill, as well !

Arrogance and stupidity. What a slap for all us democrats that knew from the get go that Obama is empty.
McCain 08

I USED TO BE ANGRY BEFORE SHE CONCEDED.BUT NOW,
MY JULY AND I, TRULY BELIEVE HER IN HER POSITION.
I REMEMBER BEING ANGRIER BACK IN 04 AND IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN…I'D RATHER SIT ANY DEM IN THE W.H THAN 8 YEARS OF WcCAIN.

HRC WILL GET HER CHANCE TO SHINE BACK AGAIN, HELL YEAH!
BUT NO WAY GOP IS GONNA STEAL THIS 1

O/BIDEN 08 - GO DEMS

Great choice-anyone voting for McCain and who-ever he picks as his running mate, get what they deserve and have no right to complain when they get the same of what we've had for the last 8 years…
This Obama/Biden ticket is a great balance no matter what the pundits and Republicans will be saying. Team work is what is needed to make what was once a great country, before Bush, great again

Sue - Hillary would be better served to not be in the administration and take over for Senator Kennedy as the head of the Health committee. Given that Universal Healthcare is her most saught after policy change that position would give her the most leverage to push it through. There is no slap in the face to Hillary - half of the convention is dedicated to her and President Clinton. The Obama campaign has been extremely respectful and helpful throughout the process - the fact that Obama was even helping raise money to help Senator Clinton pay off her debt…much of that debt going to attack ads and airtime to bring Senator Obama down…is a pretty big deal. If Democrats can't unite in this election of all elections they should be ashamed of themselves. Move away from the man and think about the platform - a vote for John McCain is a vote for the Repulican party and a blessing of the complete incompetance that Republicans have excercised in the last eights years. John McCain was beter than most but he won't admit that going to war was a mistake and he criticising Obama on not hailing the surge?

Give me a break - Democrats and Americans - wake up and get over yourselves - this is the most important election and the best platform to move this country forward is the Democratic one.

PUMA need to grow up and stop bring in women issue into this. The whole campaign, Hillary threw her nasty kitchen sink at Obama and throughout the whole campaign , Obama was very respectful of her. From endorsing McCain to 3′oclock phone call, Hillary was trying to shred Obama to pieces and now her supporters are demanding Obama to embrace her? Get Real.

PUMA = Uneducated Mobs.

Oh by the way, Hillary has a court appearance in Nov for fraud. I am pretty sure Obama's decision has something to do with it.

Clinton deserved this choice, and I sent an email to Obama stating that. I pray that McCain does not get elected, but right now, I am angry and disappointed. In any other primary, when two candidates are so close, they BOTH are on the ticket. This is a slap in the face to Hillary, her supporters, and to women. How is this change? This is a newcomer and a rich old white man on the ticket, hoping to bring in more white men. Let me tell you, more voters are women, and while we will NOT vote Republican and see more rights eroded, we are having difficulty supporting a man who is so confident that he discounts us and ignores us. I pray that when the roll call happens, the true Hillary voters will be heard, and she will be acknowledged as the leader she is. I'd like to hear Obama say that she will have a prominent place in the Cabinet.

A vote for McCain = A vote for the end of Roe. The man has promised this.

Democrats and Independents: don't let your disappointment over the election's outcome cause you to vote against your core principles.

this 3 am of announcing biden will not be forgotten by hilliary supporters that gives us more reason to vote for mccain now and hilliary in 2012 what arragance obama has

IM A PUMA SUPPOTER AN I LIKE THIS TICKET JUDGEMENT/DOUBLE EXPERIANCE/CHANGE YOU CANT ASK FOR NOTHING BETTER THEN THAT I THINK IT WAS A GOOD MOVE IN A TIME WHEN RUSSIA/GEORGIANS CONFLICT THINK ABOUT IT OBAMA COULDNT PUT CLINTON IN A POSITION AS VP AT THIS TIME BUT I BET SHE IS GONNA PLAY A ROLE IN HIS CABINET POSITION I HAD TO THINK ABOUT IT AN PUT MY ARROGANCE ASIDE FOR THE FUTURE OF AMERICA IM NOT VOTEING AGAINST THIS TICKET IM FOR IT. MCCAIN DONT CARE ABOUT NOTHING BUT THE WEALTHY AN CLINTON DIDNT WANT THE POSITION ANYWAY.SHE SAID IT HERSELF SO WE NEED TO STOP ALL THE BULL IN GET BEHIND CLINTON IN DEMS

T H E —-P R I C E—–O F—–C A M P A I G N——D E B T

Haha. Keep talking crap about Hillary, guys - see what happens on November 4th. YOU are the one's that are stupid because you can't see that the more you denigrate Hillary, the more we are certainly not going to help put YOUR CANDIDATE in the White House.

HILLARY '08

Why don't you 18m Hillary supporters chip in $2 each and retire her debt? Put your money where your mouth is.

Thanks Hill, no get out there and earn some debt relief. These cheapskate PUMAs are all ugly talk and NO CASH!

I fully support Obamas pick for Vp
biden adds a lot to the ticket
Dont rule out a big cabinet position for hillary like secretary of state
or even attorney general
hillary clinton is a work horse
she would relish a position like these or something to do with health care

No Clinton=no Obama, eh? You would rather vote your pride and self-righteousness and give away two or more Supreme Court nominations than do what is right for the country. Do you really think McCain, i.e.: Bush III is better? Who are you going to spite with your vote?

How about giving Obama four or more years, then finding a strong Democrat woman who isn't named Clinton? Hillary ran a strong campaign, but she lost. Deal with it and move on to the business at hand. Do you truly think the country is better off with four more years of Republican blunders, plunder and malfeasance?

He should have picked Hillary.

Anyone who would vote for Mccain as a way to get back at Obama's treatment of Hillary, quite simply needs to go back to kindergarten. You make me laugh, but you also worry me… Can people actually be that ignorant?!?!?!?

Hillary backs Obama over Mccain, but you are so stubborn that you would vote for a man who doesn't even garner the respect of his own party over a man who has gained the respect of the entire Democratic party… How very childish…

SINCERELY MADAM FROM YOU? Thank you so much but one thing that is important is for you to join them Nationwide and campaign for them and the Party
May God bless your family..and that is when and where Bill's credibility will be restored.

I still don't understand these "Hillary Supporters" voting for McCain. His policies will go against everything Clinton stands for, making any change she wants to make in the Senate virtually impossible. By contrast, an Obama Presidency makes her policies more likely to be implemented.

Don't you care about her policies? Don't you want to see Hillary make a difference? Voting for McCain will get you none of that. And that is why I'm voting Obama/Biden

Experience does not matter, People thought George W Bush was experienced but look what has happened to our country since him….
Noone is experienced enough to be president, its one of those things u can never have enough credentials for.

enough with the hillary protest"as of now it's obama /biden.you don't like it welll do what you may,it's bin settled.and by the way"this is a winning ticket"

You Hillary supporters are incredible. Do you really want to be looked upon as the same folks who voted for Nadar in 2000? You might as well demand Bush stick around for a 3rd term. Just because your candidate lost a close primary…and no, it wasn't stolen, just competitive for a change…you can't see past your hurt/anger/whatever it is to see that Obama stirs something in those who were previously uninvolved, and brings a fresh perspective to those who are tired of the same old players. I have been an Obama supporter from the beginning, but would never in a million years pledged support for McCain if Hill had pulled out the nomination. Get over yourselves and think about the future of our country, not stooping to such childish antics just because your favorite didn't get voted homecoming queen!

Anyone that votes for John McCain out of spite (ala HRC not being asked to be the VP) was never really a true Hillary supporter. John McCain stands to desimate, and likely permanently impede, any and all legislation HRC holds dear. Grow up and vote responsibly, not emotionally!!!!!!!!!!

Obama would have been a fool to pick Hillary as his VP with all of the mud slinging her and Bill did during the primaries. The GOP would have had a different ad each week highlighting Hillary's mud slinging.

With Biden as his VP, this ticket is so balanced and makes so much sense. Biden brings experience in foreign policy, etc. And Obama brings the CHANGE that America is wanting. With this ticket, everyone wins. America wins!

Love the ticket! Can't wait until tlhey hit the trail together. Joe Biden has already started, today, he said something to the effect that Senator Obama is not running to be Commander-in-Chief of Iraq, he's running to be a Commander-in-Chief who has the judgment to lead and to interact with world leaders on an international level!!! These two will make a GREAT team, and for Hillary supporters and PUMAS, Hillary Clinton has already selected the spot she will hold in the Obama administration, which will be revealed over the next couple of days. As outspoken and well respected as Joe BIden is and not afraid to take risks, Obama and Biden will CHANGE THE WAY THINGS ARE DONE IN WASHINGTON - and that's CHANGE YOU CAN BELIEVE IN!

Oh, and don't dwell too much on the things Biden said about Senator Obama during the primaries, because then we would have to call to memory all of the things that Senator Hillary Clinton also said, and that would be pointless, especially since many folks wanted Senator Obama to select her, even though she said some pretty horrible things. We'll let bygone be bygones, and move on to get the Obama/Biden ticket elected to the White House!!

I have posted comments on just about every ticket topic and so far every one of them are still in moderation even though some of them were made an hour ago, what gives CNN? What's the problem here?

Some jokers pretending to be hillary's supporters are spinning the switch game, nice try idiots, you're only fooling yourselves.

Although Biden was not on my list of VP, now that he was picked for the job, I think will be a good plus for the ticket, a white catholic older man from humble background, should deliver the much needed help to Obama.

We will see a large spread in the polls in the next few weeks since Obama will have the lead among Hispanics, Blacks, women, Indians, immigrants and will split the white male vote.

Senator Clinton does not have the experience and knowledge of Foreign Policy that Senator Biden has. He makes a good Vice President. Senator Clinton actually doesn't bring much to the table, since her "18 million" voters appear to be mostly republicans by nature. Anyone who in their heart thought Senator Clinton was a great candidate and not vote for Senator Obama must be nuts, or a closet republican. The thought of McCain in for four more years of this or worse scares me to death.

I' m a die hard democrat have been all my life but I will be staying home this year or will be voting for Mccain. Obama didn't put Hillary on his ticket. Mr Obama you will not be gettting my vote,and I hope you lose.

Lets make one thing clear, the people responsible for the McCain Presidency are those who voted for OBAMA in the primary.
This is not news, he was not electable then and he's STILL not electable now.

For some Dems to abandon real experience for some mythical "hope" and undefined "change" is not only contemptible but ignorant.

When we lose another 4,000 young Americans in Iraq, because of President McCain, I want all those people that voted for Obama in the primary to tell the parents of those kids………"I proudly voted for Obama!"

YOU took a chance and they ………LOST !!!

3rd party 08 !!
Clinton 2012 !!

It was either Hillary or Biden in my book.

Another great call by Obama.

there are no PUMA people, they are just Republicans trying to create an illusion of female-backlash hoping to inspire it — in reality clinton fans are not that stupid. obama reps female interests much better than mcfool.

PUMA's get a life, your candidate lost and she has graciously accepted that defeat, you should stop making her look bad and follow her lead like she has asked you too. Show your support for her and do the right thing and vote for Obama, because with or without you he IS going to be the next president of the United States. Don't you want to be on the winning team instead of looking like the desperate bunch of losers you are……………grow up.

Is it true that Obama's notification for VP went out at around 3am? Is this a play on the 3am call that Hillary used in her ads?

So basically Obama is mocking and 'thumbing his nose' at Hillary and her supporters?

Nice.

Though I am a Obama supporter, and am thrilled with the Biden pick for VP, I like Clinton. But I do not think he should have picked her to be his running mate. They both ran tough hard fought campaigns but he had to make the best decision for him and someone he is going to feel comfortable with.

I will say this to you PUMA people, if Clinton steals the nomination at the convention, she won't even sniff the white house. Trust me black america will revolt, and there would be a nationwide effort to not vote or to vote McCain. She would be seen as the stolen nominee, and black america would not stand for it. No Democrat has won POTUS without a vast majority of the black vote. Thats all I gotta say.

Obama/Biden '08

Obama made a very wise decision. Now that is a balanced ticket! What a great team they will be!

I believe Obama lost has chance to become Pres of our great country. Biden recieved 9thousand votes to Hillary's 18 million and he picks Biden?? What was he thinking? Does he think the Hillary supporters will vote for him? I for one will not. John McCain, you have my vote decided vote now if your VP is a good one. If Not I won't vote at all.

i'm voting for putin,now.

and yet obama supporters continue to throw dirt on you Hillary. You are the woman!

MCCAIN '08. Obama's v.p. pick has all the excitement of watching paint dry !!!

So much for wanting change.This guy may have experience but so did Hillary Clinton, so if he was not going to pick a change candidate why not Clinton. I think he is afraid of Clinton because she is much smarter than he is. Good Luck winning in November..All Clinton supporters should be upset, now that it is known he did not want her all along and lied when he said she would be on anyone's short list. I think people are starting to see what this guy is all about. Big ego and arrogant. Stick your nose up at the Clintons all you want but you will never be what the Clintons are to politics even with all the baggage the Clintons are so much better and the democratics that put Obama where he is will be sorry.

I hate reading all these comments and thoughts from people who call themselfs "democrats". If they vote from mccain.. they would be republicans….. I dunno, thats kinda commen sense, something during the election hillary supporters didnt have, and countinue to not have. Hillary is the champion of the hatefull, the stupid, and the afraid. And she championed that through using fear hate and stupidity. Thats a guarentee that those same voters are not going to be smart enough to vote obama for the petty reason its not clinton.

I agree Biden is a good choice. Old Washington is still in the political arena with Barack Hussein Obama standing on CHANGE! This shows just how inexperience Barack Hussein Obama is…….Our family made up there mind about Barack Hussein Obama before he even made his VP choice…..

We have been a Hillary supporter from day one, but still would have not voted for Barack Hussein Obama for President if Hillary was chosen for VP………

I would love to see the Hillary Delegates at the Convention, cast their vote for her, then walk out of the DNC, and leave the place half empty for the world to see……PERFECT PICTURE….!

John McCain 2008…………..Hillary Rodham Clinton 2012……………

Folks, please put your hurt/angry feelings behind you and let's get the Obama/Biden ticket into the White House! Our country cannot afford more years such as we've had the past 8! I'm a former Republican…changed party affiliation to Indpendent….and will be voting for Obama/Biden in November.

McCain is going start up the military draft.

VOTE OBAMA / BIDEN 2008

All of u puma's need to take a break .. Hillary is not the person in the limelight…she did not beat Obama and it is time for you to face that fact…all this bs you continue to talk about voting Mcsame is your business…one thing we Obama people know is its not even about Clinton…its about your selfish reasons for not admitting you are a racist & repuglican and are just using Hillary as your excuse for not voting for a Black Man..if you were truly a Hillary fan you would leave all the rest of this bs aside and support the democratic ticket…you just seem to not want to die even tho u r dead…..

VVV, AsBee, Ny College, All other Puma's I missed…

Please… do Our national IQ level a favor, and remove yourself from the Gene pool.

Thank you for your support on this.

My name is Dave and I approve this message.

I want a democrat to win and i LIKE bIDEN BUT i JUST CANNOT VOTE FOR OBAMA.hE IS ARROGANT,RUDE AND EXTREMELY DISRESPECTFUL TO hILLARY cLINTON AND HER SUPPORTERS AND THE WOMEN OF THIS PARTY. This should have been and easy election to win……what a mess the DNC has created,.They have divided the party even more….

No Hillary, No Vote….

To All Hillary Supporters - Dont stay home; VOTE

VOTE for John McCain

Registered Democrat for McCain

ditto………………..this is the only way to keep obama out he is dangerous for our country. dont stay home and not vote , vote mccain then hillary will run in 2012 .we wont have to deal with his nasty wife michelle if he looses

Why is everything about Clinton? And who cares what she or Bill thinks anymore. I, for one, am so sick of all the whining and belly-aching about Clinton. She needs to get over it, and so do her PUMA supporters. Obama's not running his campaign to please her, and is smart to distance himself as much as possible. They are all about themselves and care not one iota about the importance of getting the democratic administration we so desperately need this election year. True demorats see that and will remember. You cry-babies need to grow up!

You go girl… love ya! Can't wait to see you in the cabinet!!

Had the dnc, reid, dean, pelosick, cnn not SELECTED obama, Hillary would have won the nomination. Hillary would have been the best (and only) choice for vp but I am so glad that she is not a part of this ugly scam! McCain should ask her to be his vp. They would win hands down and for the first time taxpayers would be getting their money's worth for what we pay in politicians' salaries!!!!

McCAIN - '08
HILLARY - '12
NO obama bin biden - NEVER

HILLARY SHOULD NAME HER VEEP CHOICE AT THE CONVENTION. THE ONLY HOPE TO OUST REPUBS IS FOR HILL/BILL TICKET. HEY MICHIGAN AND FLORIDA VOTERS DONT YOU AGREE. IF ITS APOPULARITY CONTEST LET THE MOST POPULAR WIN. COUNT ALL THE VOTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think his choice for VP is Great!

Go OBAMA '08!

In response to all of Sen. Clinton supporters, who in disappointment to the primary outcome, are pledging support of McCain, STOP AND THINK!! Do you honestly believe, that John Mcain with all of his pro Bush backing for one minute would listen and promote any idea favored by Sen. Clinton, or any other democratic leader. Let me know because I have some land to sell and a bridge also.

vvv August 23rd, 2008 9:27 am ET

I will vote McCain! He has more experience
_________________________

In WHAT? Being a POW. There are many men who were POW's in Viet Nam and that doesn't qualify them to be President. I fought in country in Viet Nam and that doesn't qualify me to be President My dad fought on Iwo Jumo and that never qualified him for the above-stated position.

Sure, McCain has more life experience but again, just because he couldn't keep his zipper zipped does not make for a good qualification for President, though others won't see it that was as I am somewhat old fashioned when it comes to my marriage vows.

Looking out to what the future holds, what we can do do insure that America can once again, support herself without having to depend on the support of other countries to keep us afloat is what I look for in a leader.

Hillary is soooo smart.
Obama people, you blew it.
Made an emotional choice, not a smart one.
Obama has sealed his fate, and you can't blame Hillary!

To all you Hillary lovers who are voting for McCain..don't worry. There are more than enough mature Obama supporters, former Clinton supporters, who will wipe your McSame vote out so go ahead and waste your time.

To M Abdullah:

What do you say to the fact Mr Biden ran not once but twice for the presidential nomination and got bounced not once but twice ??

Let me guess ? In your eyes and those of your other obama-bot followers, the messiah struck again with one of his brilliant actions !

Thanks for the fact that it will rain for mcain this upcomming election.

Democrat On Hiatus This Election / Will Return In 2012

Picking Biden with a text message at 3 AM just sunk the arrogant fool. Nice way to unite the party. Just proves that this goofball, done nothing, knows nothing empty suit is all about show and no substance. I am a Hillary supporter and this puts it in the bag for me. I'm voting for McCain.

Biden is a good choice but Clinton would have been much better…….NO CLINTON then NO OBAMA………McCain '08

HRC was very gracious in her statement. I think she meant it. Way to go Hill. Now let's elect O/B . New and Old together, what a union….

No McWorldWar 3 !

No McWorldWar 3 !

No McWorldWar 3 !

No McWorldWar 3 !

No McWorldWar 3 !

No McWorldWar 3 !

No McWorldWar 3 !

Choosing Senator Biden was a smart move on Sentaor Obama's part. He has experience in an area in which he is not is strong point, he has appeal to the blue collar workers and he has shown that he can work with the folks across the aisle. But most importantly - he is an attack dog when he needs to be which will be needed in the coming months.

While I do not put much faith in experience for those on the Hill (lets face it, most of the member of the House and Senate have been in service for 30 plus years and we generally tend to get the short end of the stick), I do put faith in people who at attempts to give hope to others and has the common sense enough to surround himself with people who compliment themselves in areas where the may lack.

Her statement did not include a call to pay her debts? Anyway…my version of PUMA is "Pay Her Debts My A–".

I'm sure Anita Hill will be Rushing out to vote for this ticket!!!!

she's no different than biden,or mccain.we needed change,and we got more of the same.sad day for this obama fan.

LOST MY VOTE. THE DEMOCRATIC IS GOING DOWNHILL FROM HERE

You haters please don't start with this 3 a.m. mess. Hillary and Obama are friends and they made that clear "we will were friends in the Sen. and when this is over we will still be friends."

The Rep. like the ideal that people hate Obama because their favorite lost. Obama and Hillary are mending therefore let the party heal and take back the White House.

If Obama doesn't have the experience we need, why do we want him for president… I don't want Biden - the 100 year old Democratic McCain… talk about the establishment and more of the same.

All you PUMA people: Think SUPREME COURT.

That,s right Hillary ……now if you and Biilyboy just behave yourself at the convention …….I'll be able to breathe easier again…….until then ….I'm holding my breath because Clintons can't be trusted !!!

he will never win without her. obviously, he doesn't feel he needs the votes of hillary's supporters.

————————————————————————————————-
Thats right…vote against everything you stand for as a Hillary supporter. Vote for a man who is putting forward the same plan as Bush…vote against the person Hillary backs and campaigns for..thats right vote for McCain because you are bitter and would rather have 4 or 8 more years of republican rule because YOU are angry….how unselfish of you PUMAS

OBAMA-BIDEN 2008

well said abdullah but unfortunately people stopped talking intelligently and have intellectual debates.
the law of karma is true.
we cant vote for george bush and hope to get george washington.
the presidency has become a game which you win at all cost by any means, lie,cheat,spin etc etc.

Can't you see it folks - voting for McCain is a vote for the draft. Do you know any 15, 16, 17, 18 year olds? They'll all be drafted to die in some foreign country IF you decide to elect this war monger McCain.

Cue all the Hillary supporters saying that Hillary doesn't really mean it, and through some secret telepathic communication, they KNOW that Hillary really wants them to vote for McCain.

How many times does this woman have to bury the hatchet before her supporters will move on?

Wonderful choice! Clinton is being gracious!

Wow, Hillary wasnt even mentioned. Unbelievable. Good luck Mr. Obama/Biden.

Ill stay with Hillary thank you. Im kinda glad he didnt pick her. Shes a formidable person on her own. I feel sad we didnt pick her, the person who truly deserved this moment.

Ill just leave the political scene, I feel I dont belong this time.

OBAMA , has just decided to loose the election!. because Hillary will be not in the ticket (more THAN 18.000.000 votes) !!
He is showing, one more time, lack of politic experience.
He does not deserve to be President of UNITED STATE OF AMERICA .
Now I have a big reason TO VOTE FOR MACCAIN !!

Melli - I have made many decisions at 3am. Nothing about it is rude.

To the Hillary supporters or sheeps in wolf's clothing that say "they will write in Hillary's name" because Obama didn't pick her or that she didn't win the nomination. Where exactly do you people vote and how can you write someone's name on the ballot. Even if millions did this, which they can't, she's not the nominee so it would be for naught. I guess like McCain who doesn't know how many houses he has, you all are clueless too. Poutting is childish, get over it.

Biden can't keep his mouth shut. Obama will spend half of his time cleaning up after Biden's stupid gaffes.

Mix of Hot Air & Bluster = a Blast

This ticket is a BUST

Registered Democrat for McCain

Senator Biden is an excellent choice. He brings a wealth of knowledge in Foreign Policy , appeal to blue collar workers, judicial experience and a sterling record in Civil Rights, just to name a few.

In short, what this says about Senator Obama is that he has the judgement necessary to engage and work with his friends and critics alike, which is the mark of a great leader. His selection of Biden also brings to mind the ability of Theodore Roosevelt, who knew how to
surround himself with competent and qualified people to fill in where
he was lacking.

You Puma people only hurt yourselves

why are people so stupid?

To All Hillary Supporters - Dont stay home; VOTE

VOTE for John McCain

Registered Democrat for McCain

Any Democrat who votes for McCain will get what they deserve.

These people are usually those with IQs of less than 100 anyway. They pout and whine because THEIR candidate didn't win or because they won't vote for a "black" person. How ignorant!

Anyway who votes for a candidate that shares NOTHING in common with their values or issues is a moron.

McCain's "experience" is not the true reason and they know it. STALIN had "experience"…give me a break!

McCain lacks the courage to lead. He's had months more to determine his VP, yet he has waited for Obama's announcement?

Who does this country want, a leader (Obama) or a conniver (McCain)?

THE THING THAT MAKES AMERICA, A GREAT COUNTRY IS THAT IT ALLOWS US TO MAKE CHOICES, AND WE AS AN AMERICANS LOVE THAT IDEALOLOGY, IN SAYING, RESPECT OBAMA'S CHOICE FOR VP..

LET'S FACE IT HILLARY BLEW , FLAG ON THE PLAY UNSPORTSMAN LIKE CONDUCT WHEN SHE LOST THE PRIMARY, LET'S BE HONEST, YOU WOULD NOT HAVE PICKED HER FOR YOUR TEAM AND SHE DISRESPECT YOU… SHE SHOULD HAVE CALLED OBAMA THAT NIGHT TO CONGRATULATE HIM, NOT A WEEK LATER, SO HERE WE TODAY….GREAT PICK OBAMA, A VP WITH EXPERIENCE… A BALANCE TICKET, INDEED…

Gag

Hillary should of gotten it

No vote from here
they make me sick

All I can say is, This is going to be good!

Wow, Biden, don't bail out now McCain, you haven't been beat up enough!

Well, well! So THIS is the CHANGE you've been waiting for, folks! Obama has now — with one fell swoop — thrown his ENTIRE philosophy "under the bus!" Nice going in order to have an "attack dog" do the dirty work for Obama. Doesn't surprise me a bit. Always knew Obama was nothing but empty rhetoric.

Great message Ms. Hillary, I will always love you..

PUMAs have no respect for Hillary or for anything she has to say anymore. Voting for McCain is the biggest betrayal of all she stands for.

I have always loved the Clintons. I think Hillary has lost a lot of luster. She can't control her supporters. They could care less what she says. And the Bosnia comment makes her a terrible choice for Sec. of State

Thank you Hillary.

With McCain steadily rising in the polls, the more that people realize that Obama is actually saying nothing when he speaks. Obamas pick won't help him for long cause now Mr McCain will steal the spotlight when he announces his pick. Also I really doubt that Mr Obama can win the South

I am glad Hillary is gracious but I can't say the same about her whinning grown supporters. Those who are still crying over Hillary's loss, need to grow up, and get over it. Stop being a sore loser and sending a negative message to young people, on the agony of defeat.

McCain is going to lose the election. I can guarantee Obama is going to be the winner by a big landslide. I don't know many people who have landlines except old people in this day and age. So, who are they polling? Old people! Go Obama! You an intelligent articulate man and some people are going to vote against you because they do not want to see a black man as President.

They know you are the best choice for President but ignorance and prejudice will get in some people's way of making a decision. I don't want 4 more years of a republican reign. We need change. America is going down the drain. People are stuggling to make ends meet.

I pray most people vote cast an intelligent vote.

Obama made a very good and solid choice. In doing this he proved he will do whatever he needs to help all the people of the United States and not just the few. I believe Hillary knew for a while she would not be VP and the actions of Bill Clinton only proves this. BUT Obama is a smart man and Hilliary will have a place with power and so will Bill in Obama's cabinet.

Obama has proven over and over that he will make good choices for the people of the USA and he will continue for the next 8 years.

Thanks hillary and now we will move forward and win!

Another three points for Obama. It's Obama time!

here we go…welcome president McCain…good choice for VP but it will not work

BECAUSE he DID NOT pick Hillary for veep, he has LOST OUR VOTES

I still will not vote for Obama ,Biden is just like him another empty suit stuck on themself

I´m a fan of Hillary and I really Appreciate that Obama chose 3 O clock to make it Public, I didn´t like the 3 Am call from Hillary.
but Obama you really did Great!

I can't believe she wasn't asked. Goes to show how Obama does what his wife says.

Hillary is a true blue Democrat. She wants this country to thrive again and will set aside her desires to insure it will be a Democrat as President. I wanted Hillary as president and still do. I am not a true blue Democrat, I still feel Obama will be bad for this country. Which brings into question, my faith in Hillary. Not all Democrats are good people. Not just any Democrat will do. I will still write her name on my ballot, be it wasted or not. We have had Republicans in office a majority of the time and ROE v Wade is still a law. McCain does not need the money anymore then JFK needed the money. New money is the most dangerous. I bet Obama wants his profile on Mt. Rushmore, as the first black president. Obama is in it for the glory and the money, the money it brings later. God help us if he wins…

It was Hillary who kicked at Obama first, The 3:00 o'clock was HER IDEA.

NO ONE KICKED HILLARY! Get over yourself! Ego is ugly!

I think Mrs. Clinton's comment was gracious! Thank you, Hillary.

By the way, Hillary-supporters, in 2016, when Hillary wants to run again you WILL NEED the support of the Obama people…….. so if I were you I would be careful not to continue throwing stones!

Remember, PUMA's one day Hillary will run again…… and you will need Obama's supporters……. be CAREFUL, and THINK about supporting Sen. Obama……. OR YOU CAN BET THAT HILLARY WILL LOSE WITHOUT OUR SUPPORT!

Just out of curiosity I would like to know WHY Obama should have spoke with the Clintons about his VP choice. Obama is supposed to show the country he is ready to lead with this choice! Here, everyone thinks he should have considered talking to the Clintons about it.

If Clinton was so good on judgment: 1. Why did she vote for the Iraqi War; 2. Why did she not run her campaign better and Bill; 3. Why did she not get out sooner and save all of us some money and wasted time. It’s called JUDGMENT!!!!!!!!! The Clintons should only blame themselves.

I am personally tired of hearing about the CLINTONS!!! What they think, Who Cares!!!

Does this mean the Clinton supporters will abandon their rants of how they will abstain from voting or vote for McCain, or are they so self-centered that they see this as a secret code for following that insane plan?

Wasn't Hillary placing her name into nomination during the convention? She took herself out of the VP process. Her comments were very gracious and I believe sincere.

It would have been impossible for Obama to select her after the vicious negative campaign she waged against him toward the end. McCain's currently using a lot of material from her campaign against Obama.

Obama kicked at Hilary and should be ashamed? Melli and others like you….you should be ashamed yourselves for writing things like this and for not being a good sport and accepting Hilary's defeat and then moving on and supporting our Barack Obama, our Democratic nominee.
McCain is a very scary man. Read about his temper and his history people!

Obama/Biden 2008 - its time for a change-do you really want another 4-8 years of George Bush's policies? That is what you are going to get with McCain. Open your eyes!

Clinton was never a contender because I doubt very much whether she and Bill would hand over financial records to Caroline Kennedy and the vp nominating committee. Barack/Biden.

In as much as I respect Mr. Obama, I feel he did Clinton wrong for sniffing her with such a disrespect. I think he in for a long hall with
Clinton's supporters, especially, women.

As usual, she's lying!

Ohh Biden! Obama couldn't find a weaker running mate. Biden is a whiner, a foreign policy disaster and a devisive liberal…left of even Obama, but I'm sure that the text message antic garnered a few votes from the naive college crowd…Obama just lost my vote.

Clinton - Biden is the true dream ticket.
But if we have to live with Obama- at least he picked someone who has the expertise to know what to do when he walks in the door of the White house.
Now if Obama uses him as a real second in command- or better, let's him run the country while Obama plays cheerleader- we may have a winning ticket.

I don't think Obama was being rude by announcing his VP at 3 AM.
This goes to prove that he can stay awake and think straight at 3 AM.
Now 3 AM is the standard for presidential candidates coined by Hillary.
