Comments on: Some House Dems Decline To Endorse Obama

Local Political Concerns Take Precedence For At Least 14 Lawmakers

[rowdywicca]

Obama is treating half the democratic party as if they are children who did not actually have a preference for the other candidate for president.

There is one person that got easily half the democrat votes, and that person should be VP---
unless Barack is such a legend in his own mind, that he can win in november with the Democratic Party having one arm behind its back.

This ...need... for a comittee or someone to help poor Obama ...find...the obvious VP candidate,
is asssinine.

Anybody with a brain can see that Obama is trying to hedge for throwing Hillary Clinton under his campaign bus and not choosing her as VP....he can just blame his VETTING COMMITTEE!!! And go, Oh, Oh, I had to act on their recommendations and they didn''t think it was a good idea!

Obama really does think the public is stupid...and I guess half of it is, because they can''t see through his KRAP!

Many of the recalcitrant GOP members declined to detail their reasons for withholding support, but Rep. John Peterson (R-Pa.) expressed major concerns about McCain%u2019s energy policies and Rep. Walter Jones (R-N.C.) cited the Iraq war.

*** they are probably withholding support because they hate the fact that Juan Mccain voted to give amnesty to over 12 million illegals, heck he co-sponsored the amnesty bill! So No to Amnesty Mccain!

People ought to either wake up from their fog, start reading non biased news, or open your eyes to the truth because McCain is not Bush- and Obama is not experianced. The Democrat will raise your taxes, has not been to Iraq, and has never talked to Petraeous. The USA needs a leader, not a boy who wants to learn on the job. Obama is nothing more than an unqualified hypocrit.

*** I''d rather have the unqualified hypocrit, rather than 4 more years of bush, and amnesty for over 12 million illegals on an already shaky economy! How can you vote for someone that co-sponsored a bill that would have given amnesty to over 12 million illegals? No to Amnesty! Anyone other than Juan Amnesty Mcsame 2008!

I guess rednecks don''''t have a right to choose who they vote for...is your thinking, right? Only non-redknecks should get the vote...

*** If that was the case we would have never been stuck with bush that past 8 years, and wouldn''t have amnesty Mccain as a nominee! Mccain needs to move down to mexico, since he cares more about mexicans than US citizens!

McCain has problems with his own party - this AP article touches upon it, but then largely dismisses it. According to a recent poll 50% of Republicans are not satisfied with McCain.

And then there''s this article below:

New Gang of 14 won%u2019t back McCain
By Kristen Coulter and Bob Cusack

At least 14 Republican members of Congress have refused to endorse or publicly support Sen. John McCain for president, and more than a dozen others declined to answer whether they back the Arizona senator.

Many of the recalcitrant GOP members declined to detail their reasons for withholding support, but Rep. John Peterson (R-Pa.) expressed major concerns about McCain%u2019s energy policies and Rep. Walter Jones (R-N.C.) cited the Iraq war.

You keep talking about racism and fail to realize that this election is about the faith one has in the candidate and his ability to guide a ship thru troubled waters in troubled times. Let me tell you loud and clear, as I''ve heard from so many voters --- if Colin Powell had been one of the candidates --- he would win the election of 2008 without a doubt. Powell is one of the most respected and commanding figures in America and aside from some bigots (and they are a small minority of our electorate, believe me) Colin Powell could easily win the presidency if he chose to run. So stop with the racism nonsense. It''s not about race --- it''s about who inspires the confidence of the people -- the majority of the people. I pray that one day we will have another Colin Powell on the democratic side of the aisle and he will put all your racist rhetoric to sleep forever. This is America and we are all equal. Get that thru your head. Go read "The Man" by Irving Wallace (circa 1964) and learn something. It''s about the first black president and it''s very, very special.

Dems have doubts. Constituents have doubts. The vast silent majority has doubts. The democratic party is in serious trouble this year. Is this the best we have to offer? The post primary bump is pathetic. When we could have finally taken back the presidency --- we send out a trainee --- and what are they debating --- the quagmire of Iraq which can''t be over till it''s over. Even the voters know that by now. Bush got us into a mess and there is no Messiah who will be able to perform the miracle. The map will go red again and we won''t get another chance till 2012. What a waste of time and money. I hope you voters learn something this time. You sure didn''t learn from the last time and that''s why we''re in this mess.

The racism which you preach to be afraid of is likely a deep seated prejudice rooted within you. Your hipocrisy is difficult to stomach. The fact you publisize Obama''s Middle name is evidence of how you hate that which is different. I fear ignorant people like you; you are likely people who elected and re-elected GW. This administration will go down in history as a dark time in America. I can only pray that level-headed thoughtful, educated people will prevail.
