IT''s so pathetic that Clinton says she is exactly where she thought she would be when only months ago she said she is the inevitable winner- PURE LIES all over agin! Enough with these peopple and enough with the lies of DEMOCRATS..much worse than a Republican -by far! The Dem''s are NOT QUALIFIED! Neither is Congress who promised you all change.

Hillary was so frustrated that she couldn''t come up with any THOUGHT for good speeches: "There''s a difference between speeches and solutions, between talk and action."

Well, I can tell you, Hillary, while words, solutions, and action start with THOUGHT, there''s a forever distance between NO THOUGHT and solution, between NO THOUGHT and action.

"Be careful of your thoughts,
For your thoughts become your words;
Be careful of your words,
For your words become your deeds;
Be careful of your deeds,
For your deeds become your habits;
Be careful of your habits,
For your habits become your character;
Be careful of your character,
For your character becomes your destiny."

When you Hillary has NO THOUGHT for WORDS, you have NO THOUGHT for SOLUTIONS and ACTION.

"Hitlery also refused to vote last week on the infamous spending bill that gave immunity to telecom companies for helping Bush break FISA."

She didn''t "refuse" to vote on the bill. Neither she NOR OBAMA voted on the bill because both were out of town campaigning. You just can''t seem to avoid stretching the truth (putting it kindly) in order to bash Hillary. If the truth doesn''t serve your cause, you''ve got the wrong cause.

"Hitlery then proceeded to support NO restrictions on torture"

This is a lie, b-easy63. Hillary did no such thing.

"A little lesson in integrity 101 for you and the rest of Hitleryites."

How arrogant you are, b-easy! I''m not impressed by your little list of "promises" allegedly broken by Hillary. 1) She has a right to challenge the DNC decision about disenfranchisizing FL and MI voters. She agreed not to campaign there and she didn''t (Obama did). The decision on what to do belongs to the DNC, not her. No "promise" has been broken.

2) As for promises to Hispanic voters - if they are voters, they are NOT illegal immigrants. If they are illegal immigrants, they are not voters. You are talking about 2 different groups of people. No promise broken.

3) She wants to end the war and bring the troops home ASAP. This does not sound like support of Bush''s policies to me! You have not described a "broken promise" here, sorry.

"Bitter pill, slinging mud, angry, lying, back stabbing, he said this, he said that, negative, negative, negative, etc etc. Is this really the type of person we want as a candidate? She seems obsessive compulsive with a touch of paranoia!"

Back stabbing? Slinging mud? Where do you get this ? You must be watching a different campaign than I am. Or just making it up as you go along. This is a political campaign, for god''s sake. Both Dem. candidates are doing what polititians do - they try to point out their own strengths and their opponent''s weaknesses. I don''t see that it has fallen to the level of "mud slinging" OR that Clinton has been any more negative than Obama. I think YOU are the only one who is mud slinging!!!

The wonderful thing about a campaign is you can really get to know someone.

When HRC was ahead, is was sugar and spice, everyone is nice, not one cross word about Obama. But wait, now she is getting her clock cleaned and now we get to see the real HRC (as opposed to the "Hillary I know" on her web site).

Bitter pill, slinging mud, angry, lying, back stabbing, he said this, he said that, negative, negative, negative, etc etc. Is this really the type of person we want as a candidate? She seems obsessive compulsive with a touch of paranoia!

Hillary, here''s a tip - if you are so ready for day 1 and have all the "managerial experience" you are touting, start by reviving the "flat line" campaign sitting on your desk!

Mud slinging started today by "In Iraq for the next 100 years" McCain, rambling about his veteran status and how his years on the hill make him better than Obama. Wonder if he still feels the George W. Bush love from South Carolina, 2000????

Vote Clinton. . Look at the conditions the U.S was in with Bill Clinton. The same will stand with Hillary Clinton, maybe even better.

Know why no one CARES about that? Because most of us have an IQ over 40. This means we know Clinton may have presided over good economic times--but he did not create them nor was he responsible for them.

1. TAx cuts by Bush Sr put revenue in the government

2.Budget cuts enacted by a Republican majority Congress, added to the Revenue

3. Enactment of the Gramm Rudman law made a balanced budget a priority

4. the Congress cut military as well as domestic programs

5. The Dot com industry supplied the mega energy to the economy

6. NAFTA began the slow drain and back stabbing of companies in search of short term gain and profits over mfg stability and growing a dependable consumer/workforce.

Bill Clinton signed the NAFTA agreement and is considered the father of that. That fact and the results of it--will haunt him and Hilary until they are both dead--then it will haunt the history books.

Hilary has a lot of plans to spend--but surprisingly, she does not talk about fiscal responsibility, or balancing the budget or getting inflation under control--she just talks about how she can pretend to help us ALL by using more of our money to spend on us. She''s a loser. Obama might be a loser too--but he is a NEW loser--and if we are going to lose anyway--might as well try something new.

I think the established party elite in BOTH major parties underestimate how sick, tired and contemptuous the average voter is of politics as usual. From the shills and lobbyists to special interests, back room deals and spending our tax dollars like crazy, while we face lay offs and they give themselves a raise--we have HAD it. Not just to the detriment of Republicans--we are tired of the lies and whining while going along with the program of Democrats also. Obama represents more than himself--he represents us saying --"we are mad as hell and we aren''''t going to take it anymore" and even if he turns out to be a dud--we don''''t care--better to go to hell while taking a detour than end up there just the same--taking the known rode and riding the same old tired, corrupted horse. When Dems are finally up for elections --they may find it another challenges them--that they are drummed out of office for failure to even stand up to Bush--right along side all the reviled Republicans.
