CBSNews.com's Vaughn Ververs Says Clinton Has At Least Blunted Obama's Momentum

[punkitty96]

People be smart and listen close. Most of these news reporting agencies are owned by Rupert Murdock who is an exteme right wing republican. The media is really slanted. Be aware of statements like "so and so could beat McCain, and so and so can''t". The repulicans appearently have the idea that the longer and meaner this battle gets the more likely both candidates are to self destruct or do something really stupid. Don''t believe them. I have read two articles now that have stated that there is deep conflict and trauma on the inside for both camps (Clinton and Obama). This rings really untrue to me for either candidate and I am very convicted in my decision for just one of them. However, I find it hard to believe that anyone would sign up to partake in a political campaign with the candidate of thier choice and then when things look a little rough that they would just turn around and beg their candidate to drop out of the race to save face! On the contrary, they are counting on their candidate to fight until the last, and to not easily give up. We all know the repulicans are doing whatever they can to make us doubt ourselves and our choices. Don''t pay any attention to them, pay attention to facts. You know, things that can be substantiated. Beware of phrases like,"some people say", "polls say", "insiders say", an anonamouse campaign advisor said", "some estimates show". Make sure you have a solid understanding of what their plans are for the issues that really matter.

Prinzowhales is correct. This person is reading the candidates and what these current candidates are not doing, as one should. People are hung up on media and candidate hearsay, lies, generalizations and not looking at what these people are doing (their real activity records from Congress) or proposed doing for you. Just fanatic frenzy and mindless babbling over nothings or lies to pamper personality based on gender, race, pseudo experience, suspect experience, or good old boy support. Not the Truth.

Additionally, the unsigned agreement for the U.S. to join the International Court of Law dictating how you will educate and control your children is still awaiting approval and was placed on hold by the former Clinton Administration.

I''m voting Third Party Christian (read the platform, wrote the candidates). One of them in either legislative branch (local, state, federal) can decide a bill. If we have not the leader, one person%u2019s vote can influence the leaders. Our Country%u2019s forefathers were God fearing, imbued with integrity, regardless of party, for solid direction and action. The Democrats are a worn out Party and the Republican candidate is only playing the mainstream card to get elected. He''s still a renegade and a fence straddler.

OK people,please be very careful reading, watching and listening to the news. Keep in mind that much of the media is owned by Rupert Murdock who is an extreme far right republican. The republicans seem to think that the more they stir things up for the Democrats the more likely either or both candidates are to self destruct. Be very leary of polls, and statements like "so and so will get this % of compeditors votes" and so on. One thing that I have noticed is that All the news articles I have seen have touted that they have knowlege "from an inside, unrevealed source" that there is major toumoil inside campaign headquarters for both candidates. This is just ridiulous! I am very commited to who I''m voting for, but I feel I can confidently say that niether camp is having inner turmoil. Who would commit all that time and conviction just to turn around and tell their candidate to throw in the towel and save face?!?! Supporters on both sides are really counting on both candidates to campaign with all of thier effort, to put up the best fight, and especially to NOT GIVE IN! So be really leary of phrases such as "people say", "from an unidentified source", "on the condition of anonymnity", and "SOME estimates...figures...polls...(fill in the blank)". Be smartF! Listen close!

Obama is the loonie left''s candidate for the presidency. He would be creamed if selected by democrats to run against a centrist-right positioned McCain.

Hillary is the BEST candidate to challenge the popular & experienced candidate of the republican party.

[craigh9]

Its interesting to play with the remaining primaries and associated delegates. Even if Hillary wins every remaining primary by a margin of 55% to 45% she still comes up short in terms of numbers of elected delegates. Can the Democratic party possibly not give the nomination to the candidate that wins the popular vote after all the screaming regarding just that issue in the 2000 presidential election?

[jegibbons]

While I''m suspicious as to the real motives for Burak Obama running as a PHANTOM candidate. I cannot criticize his tactics. It is brilliant especially running against the SMEAR MERCHANTS: Bill & Hill.

It is my sincere hope that in a General Election when he runs against the highly ethical
Senator John McCain that Senator Obama will feel less inhibited about revealing who he really is.
I sincerely doubt that he can secure an electoral victory running on nothing more than CHANGE & HOPE.
The American voters may be anxious but they are not stupid.

[sebastian27-2009]

I think that Obama is full of a lot of HOT AIR, and I am surprised that a lot of Dems have fallen for it. It seems as if a lot of first time voters, 18 to 25, have fallen for his melodius promises, so that part doesn''t surprise. But seasoned delegates?
Hilary is not a favorite of mine, and wasn''t going as far back as my native state of Arkansas. Bill lost my confidence when he kowtowed to the Reps on welfare refarm and Nafta.
But Hilary knows the ropes in Washington, while Obama is a comparative newcomer to the Washington scene. And to think that he can blow into the White House and change things overnight. Wish he could, but he can''t.

[l00ker]

She has some more pissing and crying to do, before she can consider herself anywhere near being the nominee, but after the drubbing that she''s been getting here lately, it''s understandable for her to get carried away with glee. Understandable to a point that is.

[elsylee28]

it is ALL about electability now.

Must read for those into American politics!!!!
I found some brilliant/awesome analysis on Obama%u2019s current happenings on the campaign trail. I haven%u2019t seen anything like this mentioned anywhere in the MSM.

"Surged ahead of what?"

Posted by l00ker at 12:49 PM : Mar 05, 2008

Surged ahead of the position she was in before yesterday''s primaries. Sorry, I thought that was obvious.
