- HILLARY COMPLAINED OF SEXISM -HER OWN?
One of her main supporters, James Carville, inferred she has "cojones.%u201D She did not complain then. She compared herself to Rocky Balboa, she found nothing wrong with that;. She called herself Paulette Revere; nothing wrong with that. When one of her own supporters referred to her %u201Ctesticular fortitude, she stood right behind him and grinned like a Cheshire cat.%u201D At a speech she gave a Wellesley College she boasted of %u201Cbeing used to taking on the boys.%u201C On commenting about the debates: %u201CWhy do I always get the first question?%u201D - Reply to this comment
- Hillary%u2019s campaign is now over 32 million in debt. Many of the people she owes are caterers, small vendors, photographers, event promoters, etc. These are the small people, the "HARD WORKING AMERICANS- WHITE AMERICANS,%u201D my core constituents". I just wonder if she is going to stiff them. She has a ton of money; if she wanted, she could pay it out of her own money and still have a fortune left over.

Oh right, that''s nothing to compare with
Obama''s "Typical white person"
On Bill Clinton''s supposed "racist" comment "Unfortunate." Instead of taking "fairy tale" and setting the Press straight (Obama''s stance on iraq war) he USED the media''s twisted ways and encouraged labeling the Clinton''s as racist.
On Hillary''s discussion of "LBJ and MLK" Obama again USED a historical fact as insinuation of their racism.
On Bill Clinton''s discussion of Jesse Jackson and Obama''s success in South Carolina, after Bill was SPECIFICALLY asked a question during an interview, there was faux outrage, and ONCE AGAIN OBAMA FAILED TO LEAD BY EXAMPLE by allowing racist insinuations to proliferate. WHO did that help? the Clinton''s? Obviously not!
While Obama was playing R&B in his ads in South Carolina, sending all black emissaries, even Rev WRIGHT himself, Obama has the audacity to describe an answer Bill Clinton gave in an interview "unfortunate"?
OBAMA IS DISGUSTING and sets race relations back 30 years! - Reply to this comment

- IF YOU LIKE THIS ECONOMY, LIKE THIS NEVER-ENDING WAR, LIKE PAYING HIGH GAS PRICES, LIKE THE TAX BREAKS FOR THE RICH, IF YOU CAN''T WAIT TO INVADE IRAN, IF YOU LIKE THE UNFAIR TRADE POLICIES THAT ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR SHIPPING OUR JOBS OVERSEAS, IF YOU LIKE THE LOSS OF THE WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS, IF YOU LIKE ILLEGAL WIRETAPS, IF YOU LOOK FORWARD TO THE OVERTURNING OF ROE V. WADE. IF YOU LIKE THE FACT THAT THE US IS ONE OF THE MOST REVILED NATIONS ON THE PLANET, THEN YOU''LL JUST LOVE McCAIN.

- I am proud that I voted for Hillary and will vote for her again if she runs again. I do not think Obama who has such a short period time in public service knows how to run this country. I only see his personal ambition. The media, especially MSNBS, are biased in sexism in their coverage of Hillary, everything she did, everything she said, were so distorted. Why don''t you scrutinize how Obama was cultivated by his pastor in the last 20 years so that we will know his tendency in forming our policies.

- Fair and Quare, if the primary is re-done at this moment , that is when people have known a fair amount of what they need to know about a 1st.Term Junior Senator call Obama , Hillary will easily defeat him without any question. Things about Clinton like any other politicians have been known for years , while the lazy press "assume" in the beginning that Obama was Clean, well, it is proven that he IS not and that is why clinton won the last 6 primaries ...it is all sexism with the press...go Mc cAin.

- The way to go about restoring Hillary''s stature in the Democratic Party is not through mobilizing older women against Obama and insisting on a co-Presidency with her. By any other name, it is called blackmail. It wouldn''t work! Clinton doesn''t have 18 million women waiting to follow her; so much of that number will see their self-interest in voting for Obama as the best chance they now have to help preserve women''s rights and the gains of the past five decades of civi rights. McCain is an arch-conservative. He can''t wait enough to appoint to the Supreme Court judges who will overturn Roe v. Webb and other gains of the civil rights era. Those women who are tempted to vote him to power can''t say later that they were not forewarned! They are accomplises.

- I am still amazed that 18 million misguided people voted for Billary, agreeing with her that her tenure as first lady somehow equated into some sort of qualifying presidential experience.
That along with all the scandals the Clintons have amassed from Arkansas to the White House makes me wonder even more.
Simply voting for Billary because she is a woman and that many women wanted to say that they voted for the first woman president makes me again wonder about the intelligence level of the average voter. - Reply to this comment

- The beggest joke in this Election is about to have his butt kicked by John Mc.Cain. the DNC and the sexist press are about to learn their lessons in Nov. For all who do not see that it is sexist of the press , consider this , Why hasn''t anyone vetted Obama before he won the 11 straight victories , Why didn''t the press question his past associations as they did with candidates all the time ??? Obama got the free ride with the sexist press in the beginning , they "presume" ( how arrogant of them) that he is the second coming of Christ , until things about his associations with his racist pastor , Wright started to surface , then his associations with Bill Ayers ( the one who wishes that he could have bomb more of America) , then his Catholic Priest friend who mocked Clinton and being censored for that , then his long time fundraiser who just got convicted recently ....now any of these things could have tanked Obama campaign long ago . If the press and the DNC were doing their jobs , Clinton would have been the nominee right now . Despite all the discrimination for her gender , she still won more Big STates than Obama , still won more popular votes , and prove to be pulling strongest at the End...So , talk about sexism, there it is . Also , do not complain about Gore who lost the Election even though he won the popular vote , The DNC has just repeat that themselves ...ha ha ha ...Go Mc CAin...
