Comments on: Where Will Sen. Clinton's Supporters Turn?

Katie Couric Speaks With Seven Clinton Supporters About The Campaign

[craigh9]

Every last one of you will vote Obama in November. No matter your issues now, you''''ll realize the evil that lives inside McCain is real and dangerous. A vote for McCain will be a vote to kill many American sons and daughters via the War in Iraq, via the new War in Iran, via poor Healthcare, via a poor economy. You all know that.

Unfortunately that won''t happen. It''s a fact that ANYONE that supported either of the 2 candidates in the democratic primaries that now states they will not vote for the nominee has exposed themselves and their prejudice and the fact that they are not using logic nor interest in policy as a basis for voting. They ONLY supported their candidate because they were a woman or because they were black - OR - they would NEVER vote for a woman or a black, period.
Hillary and Obama are extremely similar in policies, McCain is quite different. If they cared about policy they would vote for Obama in a heart beat as they can capture 85% of what Hillary wanted to do - but the fact is they are too prejudice to ever pull that lever.

Now I hope all the Hillary Huggers out there can understand why she remained in the race and "Championed" your right to vote through the entire primary process. NOT that she cares one bit about you - only to use your vote as a poker chip to get something for herself.
I have to assume that the "LEAK" yesterday about wanting to be the VP on the ticket was a ruse, because her actions last night ended any notion that the Obama camp would be willing to take her on.
She showed herself for what she is, a coniving, manipulative, classless shrew with NO REGARD for anyone or anything except Hillary herself.

Support Obama never he is to far left. Obama is an elitist and will be for a select few. He will promise anything to get into office. Once he gets there do you honestly think he will be for the average American.

Obama says there will be money for health care and you believe him. You are like sheep being led to slaughter.

If you had bothered to read my coment you wouldhave seen i said i did''t want McCain for president and would vote independent. I guess your nxt comment will be calling me racist because i won''t vote fo obama. I have never belonged to a party. I think to vote for a party is idiotic. I look at the issues and want someone who will address the problems we face. Obama can''t answer a question without a script.

What about an interview with women that did not support Hillary Clinton and never would? I really get tired of hearing about how so many women are supporting Hillary. Yet, I can''t find one woman where I work that wants someone like Hillary Clinton to be the first woman president. We women want the first woman president to be someone who is a real role model - not someone like Hillary Clinton who would do almost anything to get elected and/or further her political ambitions. Like Ronin411 said,she lied to us about something as trivial as coming under fire in Bosnia. When Bill Clinton was still in the White House, there were several times when people close to both Hillary and the president were indicted or found to be involved in criminal action. And many of these people were pardoned on Bill Clinton''s last day in office. How about the fact that they had so much respect for the American people that they left a big mess in the White House when they left? Us taxpayers had to pay to get that mess cleaned up.
I am sorry but I do not want someone like Senator Clinton to be the first woman president. And I don''t see any of the media trying to interview me or any other woman that has the same opinion. What kind of media bias is that? Where is the fair treatment of all?

[undermyboot]

It''s sad, but we sure need morons like patriot12436 supporting McCain. I guess how McCain wins is not as important as the fact he wins. McCain-08

Now if obama wins th election you will see the worst is yet to come. Then we will see who the idiot is.

[patriot12436]

I would have voted for Hillary, if she runs for VP with obama i still will not vote for obama. I cannot in clear conscious vote for a man i think is intent on destoying our country.

[patriot12436]

ronin411
I find your comments about Hillary to be biased and one sided. What about all the lies obama told. He wouldn''t throw his grandmother, reverand wright, renzsko, or his church uder the bus. Ended up being a very large bus it seems. I do not think the man has enough experience. I tyhink he has shown he is a racist and at the very least a terrorist sympathyzer (ie his cousin in Africa). I do not trust obama, will never vote for him and i think the dnc shot themselves in the foot and gave away the election again. Why couldn''t they find a qualified black candidate. I know there are many out there much better suited to be president than obama. No i believe omaba will lose to McCain and i do not want McCain either. I do not support the war in Iraq.

[undermyboot]

Hillary''s route to power - the old fashioned way: Marry a powerful man.

The comment about no woman ever being as qualified cracks me up! The first woman President will happen in the next 20 years, she will be a Republican, and she will be 10 times more qualified than Sen. Sleazy.

[undermyboot]

These women are why the dems will always be a pathetic minority party. These are the same far leftie lib women who will be whining when President McCain gets enough Supreme Court appointees to reverse Roe v. Wade. Then we will see the same irrational out-of-touch-with-reality response we get from Hillary: "But this couldn''t happen! It''s not my fault I voted for McCain (or stayed home)".

These crazies are why Republicans will eventually take back Congress and keep the White House. Tough sh*t dems. ROFLMAO

According to the United Jewish Community Obama is having problems winning the trust of Jewish Americans. Care to elaborate why that might be?

Also, you made a comment characterizing this election as having significant importance; I thought all elections are very important. Why is this election more important than all the very important election of the past?

[anappleadae]

ronin411

Gosh Mr. The way you criticize and condescend could you be one of the elite the Pollsters have categorized? If so; how do I get to be as impressive as you? Can''t wait to experience your elitist answer.

[ronin411]

To the women who say if Hillary is not the nominee, they will not vote or vote for McCain, that is ammo these short sighted men need NOT to put a woman in office. It seems like women are tagged with being too emotional to be in the White House. Your saying that because you are mad, you are either going to vote for the person who has incredibly different views on where to lead the country than your candidate or you will not vote...which is a vote for McCain. How is that helping get past this stigma and get another legitimate woman candidate? That seems to be hurting the cause. My humble opinion. Hopefully, Democrats can unite. This is THE most important election in a long time. The only way the Dems can lose, is what is happening now...

[ronin411]

I am a black male who was truly on the fence between Barak and Hillary. I have a lot of respect for the Clintons. She started the mudslinging. I was hoping for a more civil primary. Mudslinging is politics as usual. She lied about Bosnia. It was not a misspeak or didn''t recall or mix up. It was a blatant lie to gain sympathy toward her understanding. To me, this means she will say anything to get what she wants. That is exactly what the current administration is doing. You do not forget where you came under sniper fire. It does not happen so often to the First Lady of the US, that you do not recall where it happened. My guess is the Secret Service would not allow the her to land in an area where there is shooting. Just a common sense guess. This was a huge lie. If she can lie about something as small as that, how can you trust her to tell the truth in more critical situations. She made this into a Black vs. Woman. These 2 groups should be united. Barak''s people receive name calling, racist comments, and Rev. Wrights'' comments certainly would not have been such an issue if Barak was not Black. He has been going to a Christian church forever, and yet people to claim he is Muslim. Bye the way, most Muslim are not terrorist. Bill has questionable monies through his non-profit agencies that he is refusing to speak about. If he is refusing to speak about it, do we want those people that close to the White House?

[ronin411]

Trenticus - even if there were no Superdelegates, Barak would have won... Why don''t you trust him? Are you going off of someone else''s comments? Has he been caught in a lie, does he have questionable financial dealings, what has he done? I am curious to understand how you came to your conclusions. Bill Clinton was my man... I was truly on the fence between Hillary and Barak. I need to know your facts that draw you to the conclusion that Barak is not trustworthy. Is it Rev. Wright? Do you believe Barak is a Muslim. Did you know that Hillary has a questionable religious figure in her past?

[ronin411]

isondemuse - Your right. Based on how the candidates ran the campaign will show how the run the White House. Hillary ran her campaign the same as campaigns have always been run, bringing in the same folks, collecting corporate money, not planning for the not so obvious (going beyond Super Tuesday) and apparently not understanding how best to work the system. Barak''s campaign was funded by grassroots efforts where the people contributed millions of dollars. Isn''t grassroots how Democracy is supposed to work. All that corporate money is not free, that is how the lobbyist get in the door. I should mention that I like Hillary, but she was outsmarted, outplayed and outmanuevered in this campaign. Don''t we want a leader who can do that to an intelligent person like Hillary Clinton? His waiting to speak on some issues was genius. He saw what the people needed and gave it to them when they needed. Their positions are similar. The ability to sway the public is a necessity, we can only hope that we are not being swayed in the wrong directin no matter who is in office. How can we judge Barak, without giving him a chance to do anything. Barak also things he can change thinks for the better, so does every presidential candidate...
