What is the intention of claiming that one is "the white candidate"?

Yeah, the press has been way too tough on her - not.

The press is to blame?

After a cr*ppy campaign strategy on Spuer Tuesday that required several restructuring since, the HIllary campaign has found its target audiences: Older women and less educated white men. Hiilary is not afraid to pander to the basest of interests nor benefit from abject racism at this point (Hey, I know West Virginia).

No it is thepresses fault for not coronating here from the beginning.

Bill ****.

Remember in the fall when you Hillary Clinton were asked about the Iraq vote and you said I voted how I thought I should and if you don%u2019t like it there are others to vote for. Well, thanks Hillary Clinton, we did find someone else to vote for. Hillary your vote for Iraq was a calculated vote to put you in position to run for President. Well, if you would have Calculated better and voted against it, you would be the nominee.

But now you are running like you are one of the people. Please! You are the richest of all the candidates running and are far more an a elitists then everyone else. The fact that you continue to push the rumors to your working class minions about Obama shows how manipulative you really are. And you even have women believing they are the downtrodden. Hillary you are not downtrodden. You are a US Senator. And remember how you got there too Hillary. Certainly not how many other great women got there on their own volition. You instead rode to the Whitehouse purely on your husbands adulterous coattails. Poor Hillary. But Hillary stop using people like they are yours to manipulate.

And don%u2019t call my vote from a caucus state worthless either. Perhaps in past elections caucuses were activivists but this year the turnouts for caucuses had primary like numbers. So in your 50 state count, you also need to count the small caucus states which puts you about 1.4 million votes behind.

[Possible causes for Obama''''s lead might be: 1.better organization, 2.better message, 3.better networking, 4.better internet usage, 5.better fund-raising, 6.less negative campaigning, 7.higher voter appeal, 8.higher honesty level, 9.better response to adversity, and 10.less time alibing failures! ]

these may be factors ... but the most important one is what''s in the mind of the prospective voter ... on both sides of the aisle.

it''s now a sophisticated game of psychology ... where ''the message'' (your #2) is totally engineered to ''push the buttons'' in every voters heads about how they should ''feel'' about a candidate.

it''s way too sophisticated for most voters to recognize ... everyone is manipulated by it ... and it explains how less qualified candidates make it to the end of the race to ultimately take the prize.

there are defenses against these techniques ... but an expectation that the average voter is capable ... or willing to understand these principles is asking too much.

after all ... the finals of american idol and dancing w/ the stars is on and they need to have their vote heard there.

[When an Obama lover writes that European countries like Obama over Clinton it is because they want to see America sink deeper into despair.]

can you explain this? you''re saying that ''the obama lover'' consciously wants the country to sink deeper into despair?

what is their motivation for this? what do they have to gain from this? who will be served by this?

I feel sorry for this country.
I really do. Rev.Wright made no
difference. Rezko made no difference. We have some real uneducated people who only listen to talking heads.
I doubt if many know the Federal
deficit. Or the National Debt.
It''s easy to find.
I have not heard one word from Obama about what he would do about this. But it will take years to ever see a surplus. Why aren''t any of them talking about the real problems here. The dollar falls every day and then oil goes up.
We''re turning into a 3rd world contry right before our eyes.
And we demand nothing from any one
running for President. Amazing!

The following Bill, is something more you can whine about. How about just chilling out.

Sources with direct knowledge of the conversation between Sen. Clinton and Gov. Bill Richardson, D-N.M., prior to the Governor''s endorsement of Obama say she told him flatly, "He cannot win, Bill. He cannot win."

Don''''t you see, Bill - It''''s not fair, I''''m the Queen Bee & It''''s suppose to be all about me. I''''m just warming up. Show me more of your money. I''m in it to win it. I flatly dare you to support him. I don''t get mad I get even. Just so you know The feminists are all behind me and we will stop at nothing to further divide the Democratic Party just to keep Obama from winning the presidential election. So Sad, but what did we expect.

Richardson, who served in President Clinton''''s cabinet, disagreed.

But obcourse, Bill Clinton wants to blame the media, ostensibly, in the hope that they''ll become even MORE one-sided in Hillary''s favor than they are already!

With the exception of Bush/Cheney, no one has gotten more of a ''free-ride'' than the Clintons'' this campaign cycle! Gimme a break!
