Q. Senator Obama, what exactly have you done in the Senate that might indicate your experience with economic policy?
Obama: Present. heh,heh,heh
Q. Senator Obama, after a virtual free pass from the media for most of your candidacy, you still failed to nail down the nomination. How do we know you really have what it takes to win a General election?
Obama: Bend over and I''ll show you. heh,heh,heh,heh,heh.
Q. So Senator Obama can we get some real specifics on some of your policies?
Obama: Uh,um,duh- I always answer that one after Senator Clinton. Hey you''re not CNN. I only do interviews with my b!tches over at CNN heh,heh,heh.

On the other hand, the strong arming techniques of using sitting Governors like Strickland in Ohio and Rendell in PA are more traditional Party power consolidation techniques (used by either party by the way).

I think that Strickland is a fairly honorable man also. However, Rendell is too much a DLC''er and is shilling for Hillary. See his face on TV interviews all the time. Besides, I know Rendell''s MO having lived in Phila. under his mayorship for ALL of his terms.

It''s a good power strategy, though - Rendell hints at the mud. The CLintons stay above the fray. Obama will lose PA, but the campaign bus is just starting there. She has to win by 25% to make any difference in count. AND NC is already Obama''s.

Governer Richardson is an honerable man.

He was moved by Obama''s speech on race and he, like me, does not want a continuation of CLinton/Bush Legacy and Royalty. There are plenty of good people out there that are not heirs to the throne.

I didn''t ask you about Obama''s faults. I asked you why do you think Hillary didn''t wrap the nomination on Zsunami Tuesday as advertised.

And NO the media being too easy on Obama doesn''t cut it. He is not the AntiChrist you make him out to be either. He just is a young, good politician. The only real criticism that has logical merit is his lack of experience. The Wright Church thing is a set-up. Obama is not racist nor an Africa firster as claimed by the ignorant here.

There is something to be said about how Obama''s people efficiently organized and used unconventional channels early on. Clinton''s used the standard money obligation techniques that were gleaned sucsessfully from the Republican''s money raising processes. In fact, they do it better than Republicans.

The Clinton''s show a lot of Class when they win, too bad the Clinton''s are sore losers and have no Class when they lose! Bill Clinton said today there is no quit in his family and thats an admirable trait and quality, but not when you have no chance of winning! Every Political expert agrees that the only way Sen. Clinton can win the Democratic nomination now is to destroy Sen. Barack Obama and the Clinton campaign response was ''if thats what it takes then thats what has to be done, which I and many Americans think is absolutely disgusting! The Clinton''s need to give it up, unite the Democratic Party and move on, its over. New Polls show Sen. Clinton losing to Sen. McCain and Sen. Obama beating Sen. McCain, so even the previous electability argument is dead too!

Some say that I, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, should have spent Easter weekend in Chappaqua, writing my withdrawal speech and preparing for my return to the Senate. They ask why I stay in the %u201908 race when Obama has an insurmountable lead in states, delegates, and popular vote. My strategy is for victory in the 2012 presidential election. I will continue to pursue several lines of attack on Obama including denouncing his experience, blaming him for the fiascos in Michigan & Florida, and even praising our Republican rival Senator John McCain as more patriotic and experienced than Obama. My goal is to do extensive damage to Obama to ensure that he looses the general election in %u201908 and pave the way for my eventual election in 2012! It%u2019s a HILLARYOUS strategy, but I will be president by any means necessary.

McBush is correct on one thing-- banks like Bear Sterns and J.P. Morgan should not get a huge bailout from Uncle Sugar after their greed and irresponsibility wreaked financial chaos on America. Unless-- in return for a federal bailout from what probably will become the most massive financial reversal in decades, the federal government impose a direct and close supervision of this market.

While Treasury Secretary Paulson wants to tell mortgagers, "You gentlemen will have to behave from now on," the rest of us have a more forceful message to deliver to Washington. After millions of Americans have had their lives and fortunes suddenly foreclosed, it is time to begin vigorous and direct regulation of this financial market-- and not letting the mortgage banks threaten the United States like this ever again.

Federal regulation is an absolute must to keep potentially ruinous, irresponsible market behavior at a minimum. With the mortgage securities sector, this had not been done because of the Bush policy of lessez faire-- essentially, "let the market police itself".

It is certain we will hear the self-interested chorus of GOP bozos whining "the government should stay out of the market", but this and other markets are created and maintained by only safeguards, rules of accountability and federal regulation to enforce them. Conspicuously enough, the mortgage-backed securities market is not nearly as well-regulated as other financial markets. Score-- Lessez Faire 0, Regulated markets 10.

I see solar991 aka as ???? GOP Moroninc has new moniker:)
It`s SO EASY to see him making a Fool of himself AGAIN!!

Governor Richardson in his own naivete thought his endorsement would lead the superdelegates into a mass jump ship to Obama. It didn''t, because the DNC sees the mechanics of this election.

However, the only thing it did was show his lack of character and loyalty. When you don''t dance with the one that brung you to the party, you have a serious character flaw.

[nancy971]

Hmmm. Looks like Obama is way up in the polls again. No matter how hateful some people are the truth always prevails. VIVA OBAMA! I wonder who will be Obama''s running mate? Will it be Richardson, aka Judas? Please see a new music video about Obama. I love it and had to share it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7s9ubMQX7WE

Last August when the first article came out about Obama''s church and Rev. Wright and people started asking Obama about it, and he kept shrugging it off, it raised a red flag for me.

I went out and read everything I could get my hands on about this man, including his two books he''s marketed swilling Wright''s separatist ideology.

He is in fact, not at ALL the person the media presents him to be. And that is why I keep speaking out.

He has lied to you at least 15 to 20 times straight out! He lied about his Illinois politics, it was dirty and nasty. He lied to you about his legislation prowess in Illinois. He lied to you and said he didn''t know about Rev. Wright''s separatist teachings.

On top of that, he steals his plans from someone else and jiggles them a round a little. When you look at his plans you can see his inexperience and naivete.

Hillary knew going into this campaign that it was going to be close! She still knows it''s going to be close! She NEVER let herself be fooled otherwise!

But she is a fighter, and her supporters believe in her. Even more now that the media is letting people get a peak at the REAL Obama.

[nearl4511]

ROwdy, I know there is no changing your mind, but I would like your take.

Why is it that HIllary did not wrap up the nomination on Super Tuesday as she was expected/supposed to?

Don''t you think that there was some doubt and negatives because of her and her husband''s past? I mean Obama appeal can''t explain it all. It wasn''t some kind of subterfuge. AND waht exactly happened in Iowa. She was supposed to win that BIG. Not a black state, so what is the explanation?

If she had performed as advertised, we wouldn''t be having this discussion. By the way, I was supporting Richardson (i.e. "Judas") then, and would be today if he were still in it.

I heard two mush mouthed interviews. Not one of them stating that she should quit. That is a farce cooked up by Obama supporters that they''re telling her to quit.

[nearl4511]

I don''t know why Hillary just doesn''t start outright campaigning for McCain as the most experienced candidate.....or offer him a job as her vice President.

Actually, I am more with McCain on this bail out issue. I think that the actions so far of the Fed have done nothing to alleviate the underlying problem. People have alsways been hoodwinked into signing bad mortgages, but the predatory stuff needs to be addressed by some regulation. Benanke, has to go. Wall Street has him in it''s pocket.

Hill and Obama are using the issue for campaign points. If HIllary were true to her husbands economic policies whe would be listening to Rubin.

[chitown639]

lol, apparently those votes do count. She''''s still a viable candidate.

She is still in the race regardless of the MI and FL primaries not counting. She can forget about those primaries or even a re-vote, that boat has already set sail last week. Thats why there is increasing pressure on Hillary to get out. You havent heard the Dems calling for her to drop out, because there is nearly no way for her to surpass Obama in delegates, number of victories and yes even popular votes....

[rowdytexan2]

Shyyyt.. more "viable" than any republican candidate.

Exactly!

[blkpresident]

greenfun,

You can''t be serious. If Lil'' Hillary was all that you wrote, please explain to me why she isn''t leading in the delegate count? After PA., that woman is out. It''s time to focus our attention on OLD man McCain. Lil'' Missy can focus her attention on stirring some batter in a cake mix bowl back in her kitchen in NY.
