mnmaid--I will not bad mouth your choice----I don''t know what your economic issues are--but my family can''t take much more of this meltdown--gas prices, food cost, evetything going up except wages. I will say that if she wins, I will be disappointed, but I will support her against John McCain. We must have a democrat in November--Are you prepared to do that if your candidate loses?

Enough of Debates!!! Come and talk to the people in person. Especially not one that has Couric as moderator. She is also turning people off, know why CBS news is last in its time slot?

Bravo smashw17! You''re right on the money! I am an older woman and in many ways ashamed of what I have seen seen in her too. It makes me feel that these "staunch" supporters are living in the past era, seeing that their main reason is that it''s time for a woman! No wonder they themselves were not able to forge ahead. The best should be chosen and not just the gender. We, as women will forever remain behind if we were to make our choices based solely on gender.

[blackspirit3]

THE CLINTONS HAD A LIST OF THINGS TO ACCOMPLISH WHILE IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
- The only president ever impeached on grounds of personal malfeasance
- Most number of convictions and guilty pleas by friends and associates*
- Most number of cabinet officials to come under criminal investigation
- Most number of witnesses to flee country or refuse to testify
- Most number of witnesses to die suddenly
- First president sued for sexual harassment.
- First president accused of rape.
- First first lady to come under criminal investigation
- Largest criminal plea agreement in an illegal campaign contribution case
- First president to establish a legal defense fund.
- First president to be held in contempt of court
- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions
- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions from abroad
- First president disbarred from the US Supreme Court and a state court.

WHAT DID THEY FORGET TO DO?

Ooh, how absolutely exciting. A wooden plank facing a block of cement.

I was a woman working as a carpenter in the field for msny yrs. I was held to a higher measure than my male counterparts. I don''t think that this automatically makes Hillary Clinton the candidate of choice. Instead of doing what the "good old boys" who built the glass ceiling have done--promote via gender--I am supporting the candidate I think would be the best. That candidate does not look like me, but he is the best candidate--Barack Obama. To support someone based on gender, is no different than the good old boys and in the case of choosing a President--a critical error.

Obama has never bragged about his experience, he always talked about judgment. I have to admit he does not have perfect judgment on everything either. However, Hillary is the one that brags about her experience to be President. Now let%u2019s look at Hillary%u2019s judgment as potential Commander and Chief.

Hillary%u2019s judgment should one again be called into question!

1st: It was staying with Bill for political gain even after the abuse of sexual indiscretions.

2nd: The war in Iraq vote!

3rd: Agreeing to sign up for the rules that were stated by the DNC in respect to Florida and Mich.

4th: Destroying the Democratic Party for her win at all cost policy.

5th: Slashing and Bashing Obama and then wanting him to be her running mate.

6th: Financial handling of campaign funds spent over 100 million during Iowa campaign.

7th: Lying about Bosnia and Sniper Fire.

8th Not taking Obama serious as a contender for President, she thought she had it in the bag from the beginning

And this is who you want as President, come on women of America look at who you are supporting. It her judgment that needs be the #1 issue of this campaign. She has poor judgment that is the bottom line issue for all of us to examine

[mannie49]

Hilliary needs to get all of her lies straight before she debates again. She has shown me that she is full of it and will do anything to get to the oval office. What does Obama have to apologize to her for? She needs to apologize to all of the real casualties of war who really was confronted with sniper fire. STOP HATIN!!

[blkpresident]

besscannon,

Where I appreciate your true comments that if not for a woman none of us would have been born; however, wasn''t it a lil'' woman like lil'' Hillary who ate the forbidden fruit?

We are a nation at war, so America doesn''t need missy or grandpa at this juncture in our history. We want to win those two wars--not nap through with a "blankie" and geritol nor do we want to offer a foreign policy akin to donning an apron and stirring a cake mixing bowl. It''s really that simple. A man is needed at the helm--not an OLD man mind you but a MAN nevertheless. Sorry ''bout your lil'' pipedream missy.

At this point, I doubt too that there is much to debate as far as real issue and policy differences between Clinton and Obama are concerned. If you don''t know by now, you''ve been asleep. It will give Clinton a chance to sling more mud, though (I''m a former STRONG supporter of Clinton). Otherwise, Couric as a "moderator"? One of the worst if not THE worst interviewer in all media. Lobs softballs, doesn''t know the issues and correct answers, is unprepared, and doesn''t follow up. Hardball she''s not.
