How wonderful would it be a Clinton/Obama ticket.

Whoever wins the Democratic nomination the other should be picked as vice-president.

Barack is nibbling at her heels in the polls and only leads her in the state by state polls in IL, GA and possible CA. I''m betting she won the majority of the early votes in CA which started on January 7. I think if Hillary racks up the majority of state wins on Tuesday as it appears she will no matter how small the margin, the momentum will shift her way. It will be hard to fight those headlines irrespective of the delegate count. I can''t see him overtaking her multi state leads. He needs a little more Mo in his Jo.

With all of the massive pro media publicity and money he has received in the past two weeks, he should be more than nibbling.

Hillary will get the nomination eventually.

As long as the republicans don''t win I don''t care at all. Now we don''t have to worry about John Edward''s $400 haircut. We can all go watch low educated people get paid millions to move a football around for one hour that takes seven to air on tv. Truly amazing this country''s priorities. Oh, and I can''t wait to hear McCain go on about "fiscal responsibility" and "tax and spend" democrats. Of course, the majority of americans will buy into this. as usual.

I know that as soon as I post here I am going rile up the Libz with my outright honesty and integrity!. Libz and their ilk are always trying to destroy this Nation that Self Sufficient people like me built with our blood and sweat! It is the Libz that put the spear in Jesus side and they would love to do the same to me. That is right, the Pharisees and the Romans were proven welfare check receiving LIBZ!!

Trust me, should you vote for Hillary, McCain, or Obama, you are voting for all the moral uncertainty that comes with progressive thought. The kind of thought that has you helping the poor and unfortunate. The kind of thought that has your tax dollars going to help veterans who dam well knew as soon as they signed up for the military they cold end up on the street, legless and begging for money. Enough of this Wimpy Lib ***. We need a tough guy in the Oval office, a guy who had business in his DNA, a man who could pull off a leverage buyout with his eye closed. MITT ROMNEY!

God Bless.

The New York Times has a major write up on Obama and nuclear power today that talks about his donations from Exelon and the fact that David Axelrod has done work for this company. It also shows how Obama weakened a nuclear bill in the US Senate based on power company and GOP requests and what he did to the bill very much dismayed nuclear opponents in Illinois.http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/03/us/politics/03exelon.htmlBut of course he continues to say he does not take money from lobbyists (which he did on the federal level until this election and still does from state lobbyists).

McVet,

What is it with your Nazi fetish? You post Nazi slogans all the time. You seem to have an obsession with them.

It''s weird.

Hillary''s Health Care Plan:

- The Long lines and efficiancy of the US Post Office.
- The Cost-Overruns of the Pentagon.
- The Courtesy and Compassion of the IRS.

But everyone will be happy because we will all have "HillaryCare."

And the BEST part of HillaryCare?
She won''t be on it.
She''ll have her own, private, best-that-money-can-by Cadillac-insurance that she and the rest of Congress will be on, all fully paid for by you and me.

BULLETIN:

CALIFORNIA''S FIRST LADY MARIA SHRIVER ENDORSES BARACK OBAMA

(UPDATED)
February 3rd, 2008 by Joe Gandelman

California%u2019s first lady Maria Shriver has just appeared as a special surprise guest at the rally for Barack Obama in Los Angeles to endorse him for President. It was aired live on CSPAN.

%u201CI wasn%u2019t on the schedule,%u201D she just said. %u201CI thought to myself when i woke up this morning there%u2019s no place I should be but right here today.%u201D

She said this morning she told her daughter: %u201CI think I should be at UCLA. She said to me %u2018Mommy. If you think you could help, if you think you could change just one person just do it. S I i am here today as a woman and a Californian. I believe elections are a lot like life %u2014 they are made up of moments%u2026The more I though about it, the more I thought this election is about moments%u2026This is a moment not just for hte US of a and for the Democratic party %u2014 this is a moment for California.%u201D ...

With the race neck-and-neck in California, this should carry some weight. Shriver is a highly popular first lady married to a Governor who remains one of the most popular in modern California history %u2014 and a Governor who is highly popular among independent voters, who are allowed to vote in Tuesday%u2019s primary.

We spend more of GDP on health care than any other nation and we rank in the pitts among so-called first tier nations. I certainly don''t want to be taxed to purchase crappy health care for strangers...what did they ever do to me do deserve such cruelty?

Yeah, we really want the government to DECIDE for us who can afford health insurance and garnish (confiscate) our wages for it.

That''''s the Brave New World that Hillary and the Democrats have in store for us.

"WASHINGTON (AP) -- Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton said Sunday she might be willing to garnish the wages of workers who refuse to buy health insurance to achieve coverage for all Americans."

Mandated health care just failed in California - I think that''s why Obama''s now leading Clinton in polls in Cali.

PS Jordin Sparks is singing the national anthem on tv now - go Jordin!

You seem to be awlful nervous here. This is a fascist OPINION of the Clinton Plan, easy for her to counter with the past experience of the American people and such garbage. No, Clinton is better able to deal with this type of mud slinging...she''s dealt with it before. Sieg Heil Bush

Clinton health plan may mean tapping pay

By CHARLES BABINGTON
Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton said Sunday she might be willing to garnish the wages of workers who refuse to buy health insurance to achieve coverage for all Americans.

The New York senator has criticized presidential rival Barack Obama for pushing a health plan that would not require universal coverage. Clinton has not always specified the enforcement measures she would embrace, but when pressed on ABC''s "This Week," she said: "I think there are a number of mechanisms" that are possible, including "going after people''s wages ..."

"GOING AFTER PEOPLE''S WAGES" ...

IS THAT THE WAY REAL DEMOCRATS TALK? ...

THE REPUBLICANS WILL KILL THE DEMOCRATS WITH THAT KIND OF ANTI-WORKER, ANTI-FREE CHOICE RHETORIC ...

NO THANKS HILLARY.
