For ''getsomesense''
If you are up for some reading, go to Obama''s website and check out the 64 page blue print for change document and compare it to the scant policy information on Hillary''s sight. Most of Obama''s speaches are on broad themes that are best conveyed in a speech, the in depth policy is on his site. Hillary speeches seem to mainly be asertions that are only occasionally based in reality. As far as policy? I see little in writing, this makes for easy revision as polls shift.

If it were true that Obama has no substance, do you really think he would consistantly do so much better with more educated voters?

I''ve heard the common sense is getting more and more uncommon and after reading this tripe, I can see the truth of it. Exactly WHAT does OBAMA stand for that you are so proud of? He spouts all those words and never SAYS anything. Get Some Sense

I grow weary of this primary, weary of the fighting, the negativity. I grow afraid for the Democratic chances now McCain has been settled on as the Republican nominee - how is ill intended cross party voting going to effect the remaining primaries?
The longer the Democratic nomination drags on undecided the more harm done to the eventual nominee - a nominee that should have been acknowledged already given there is a clear front runner - we all know that Hillary cannot overtake Obama%u2019s delegate lead unless the decision of the people is overturned. In equality %u2013 this matter should have been settled and not persisting.
I''ve seen so many people standing up and standing together, coming together to massive events, to call for change. The spirit of that has been echoing around the world. That brought tears to my eyes and revitalized my soul. But then I have also seen so much ugliness, fear, smears trying to tear that apart - that grows louder by the day and it is truly dismal. The monster that has been nurtured in society is rearing its ugly head %u2013 lashing out, refusing to die. But it must, for our sakes, it must die %u2013 we must challenge ourselves to rise above and go forwards in a more positive way.
Please America, please %u2013 you and the world, we need to heal now. Let us heal. We are the people %u2013 we are more important than money, than economy, we are the people and each other and this planet %u2013 these are the most important things we have.

I''m sorry, last time I checked claiming false information on a federal resume was grounds for immediate dismissal.
Hillary, it''s been proven that you were not involved in writing SCHIP.
Hillary, you are running based on your healthcare experience, but you lied about it.

Why is it Obama discloses things, but Hillary covers them up. Admit mistakes and correct them.
America can''t afford another secretive president like Bush.

leef53 says it best:

Why doesn''t the press ask the tough questions?

Where are your Tax returns
Where are your ear marks
Where are the donor lists for the Clinton Library
Where are the White House first Lady Papers

I used to look forward to these articles. Obama and Hillary are both nitpicking! The press is saturated and the arguments now tedious.

What does it take to ask about those tax returns? If if she refuses comment, that''s news worthy!

Well it looks like the Clintons found an effective attack method: The Whine. "The media''s so mean to me!" "I ALWAYS get the first question!" "Barack''s nitpicking!"
They are so gross. I wish I understood what the appeal was. I wish more people questioned the idea of a former two-term first lady as President. I wish people called her on her skeletons ("Bill, they''re asking hard questions again! Billll! I''m just a girl! Waaaaaa!")
Too much power concentrated on too few people with too much to hide. And it stinks.

Wouldn''t it be refreshing if the Clintons would also come clean!

Better yet, wouldn''t it be interesting if these journalists would put together two columns: one listing Mr. Obama''s lapse in ethics and in judgment , and another one for the Mrs. Clinton?

But, you got to give it to the Clinton for their ability to create chaos in order to distract attention from real issues.

It has taken the so-called journalist to discover that Mrs. Clinton had no foreign policy experience, just bogus claims, and false claims on health care, except for bungling the agenda.

It took this long to discover that her sole claim to health care success, SCHIP, was in fact based on falsehood.

I thought, she wanted to discuss the issues? Heaven forbid should we look too closely...
