Obama gave a valid reason not to debate at this time. No other candidate has ever debated as much as Obama to date, especially with a candidate who is behind in the overall race and has lost credibility among those who matter.

Obama does better when he is face to face with voters, and you and Clinton know that. Obama has been decent, respectful and accommodating toward Clinton. He needs to move forward with his agenda and not hers. She''s trying to distract him.

Rather than attack Obama with childish, irrelevant statements, why not present valid issues here so readers might consider your points?

From reading the misrepresentations and distractions here that have no validity, it''s no wonder China and India far excel in science, math and overall education than Americans.

I guess that''s why more uneducated folks vote for Clinton. They don''t know "truth" from fiction.; Reply to this comment

This statement you refer to misrepresents Obama''s remark on his position of the war from 2004 on.

"On Reliable Sources, Howard Kurtz claimed that in a 2004 Chicago Tribune article, Sen. Barack Obama "said there wasn''t much difference between his position and George Bush''s position on the [Iraq] war." But Kurtz left out three key words from Obama''s quote in the Tribune -- "at this stage" -- as well as the context of the remarks, both of which indicate that Obama was discussing how best to stabilize Iraq from mid-2004 onward, not claiming agreement with Bush on the war itself."

How everyone else voted is separate from how Obama voted.

It seems Clinton supporters like to "misrepresent" and "misspeak" like she does. Misleading viewers who read these posts is doing a gross disservice to Americans and indicates someone who may be unpatriotic. With Americans facing soup lines in December, we all owe it to one another to be as truthful as possible in these critical times.

Or, is honesty and integrity just words in a the dictionary?; Reply to this comment

by philly1550 April 27, 2008 8:51 PM EDT: Hillary has more popular votes than Obama...and has won all the BIG states with electorals needed to beat McCain in Nov.

Hillary will be President.; Reply to this comment


by April 27, 2008 8:48 PM EDT: Obama is leading...why?

Obama is leading in number of delegates won;

Obama is leading in number of states won;

Obama is leading in number of popular votes won;

Obama is leading in number of the caucuses won;

Obama is leading in every demographic;

Clinton is leading among the senile;

Clinton is leading among the uneducated;

Clinton is leading among the stupid;

Clinton is leading in number of lies told.

Hillary supported oil companies, Iraq War, NAFTA, lobbying. She''s been caught in several lies and lacks integrity. Her vote got us into this illegal war that is costing "us" $30 billion a month. Her legislative accomplishments pale next to Obama''s. It''s no wonder superdelegates are defecting to Obama and he is supported by the greatest minds in politics.

Obama is a decent man. He could attack Hillary on these and many other faults of hers, but he doesn''t. Did you know she was romantically linked with a Black Panther and helped get him off from murder charges years ago?

Vote Clinton for more of the same and lies. Vote Obama for progress and positive change with no lies and someone who can beat McCain in November.
