Democrats To Debate In Pennsylvania
The Barack Obama campaign just sent out a press release announcing that Obama has accepted invitations to debate in Pennsylvania and North Carolina.
Earlier, the Hillary Clinton campaign sent out a release announcing the former first lady had agreed to participate in the Pennsylvania debate, which is scheduled to take place in Philadelphia on April 16th.
The North Carolina debate, which would be hosted by CBS News and moderated by Katie Couric and Bob Schieffer, is scheduled for April 19th. The location has not been determined.
“Senator Obama welcomes the opportunity to openly debate Senator Clinton on the issues important to Americans in North Carolina and Pennsylvania and hopes that she will accept these invitations as well,” Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton said in the release.
The Clinton release stated that "Hillary is prepared to show she has real solutions for the problems facing residents of the Keystone State." No word yet from the Clinton camp on the North Carolina debate.

paris1969, I know it''s hard to accept, but the powers that be have decided that hatred of white people by blacks is not racism. It is a justifiable reaction that we are not supposed to complain about.
Curious, that all of a sudden, baby Barack, our 3-year senator SuperStar is now interested in debates after losing Texas and Ohio and every other state with a sizable number of electoral votes, except for Illinois.
You don''t think his "change" campaign is making politically motivated decisions, do you?
Face it, your girl Hillary lost. Deal with it.
You might want to get your story straight about Obama''s church. Stop spewing your nonsense. Hillary lost--get over it! OLD man McCain is next in line to experience the Obama shuffle. Scared OLD man?

A gop president with mid 20s approval ratings.
A faltering economy due to 7 years of false GOP dogma
2 wars with no end in sight in Iraq and Afghanistan with one more in Columbia, and a possibility in Iran
$4 gas, sinking dollar, masive inflation, weak housing and job market.
A GOP candidate who is not liked by the republican base or by the conservative mouthpieces they use.
How could the democrats possibly lose?
I give you Hillary Clinton.
There is no possible way for her to have a majority of the elected delagates. There is little chance she could wind up with a +140 super delagate advantage prior to the nomination in CO. But she has commited herself to 3 more months of a campaign she will not win, cannot win except by overriding the will of the voters. She will for 3 months sling mud and raise questions on the eventual nominee for the Dems. For 3 months an estimated $120 million for both camps will be spent tearing apart the democratic candidates instead of focusing on the general election while John McCain builds support and defines himself on the cheap.
I thought the 2008 election was a lock for the dems, but Hillary would take down the party before she admits defeat.
Prepare for McCain in 2008, another 1 or 2 supreme court justices like Alitio, more war, more flawed economics, no healthcare, no progress.
Thanks Hillary.

Oh I see she''s really a lobbyist for Republicans and the military industrial complex now...
Here''s what Blank Rome''s own web site says about Gerry:
"On a slightly territorial note, however, the Washington Post.com reported, Geraldine Ferraro is heading back to D.C. or at least she be spending more time here . . . . The 1984 vice presidential candidate . . . adds a bit of Democratic flava to a firm known for its GOP ties; she also returns to town just in time for the latest round of the nation ready to elect a woman? interviews."
So when she''s out there raising money for the Clintons and being disciminated against because she''s white- is she really on a feminist crusade or is she trying to buy favors for Blank Rome''s big bucks clients?
What a joke- Hillary''s superdelegate Mr. Spitzer isn''t the only NY politician that understands prostitution....

McCain says he does not agree with all that Hagee says and that ends the discussion. Obama says he does not agree with all that Wright says and the discussion switches from middle name absurdity to right-wing bigotry.
Obama''s Pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Has a History of What Even Obama''s Campaign Aides Say Is ''Inflammatory Rhetoric''
ABC NEWS
and Obama was out yesterday with his attack dogs sicked on and threatening a 71 year old women with Mr Hope saying SHE IS the divisive one when his own Pastor is says God damnnn America is to blame for 911
and that rich white people are the evil of this country OUTRAGEOUS
"Clinton claims to have "negotiated open borders" in Macedonia to fleeing Kosovar refugees. But the Macedonian border opened a full day before she arrived, and her meetings with Macedonian officials were too brief to allow for much serious negotiating.
Clinton"s activities "helped bring peace to Northern Ireland." Irish officials are divided as to how helpful Clinton''s actions were, and key players agree that she was not directly involved in any actual negotiations.
Clinton has repeatedly referenced her "dangerous" trip to Bosnia. She fails to mention, however, that the Bosnian war had officially ended three months before her visit - or that she made the trip with her 16-year-old daughter and two entertainers.
Both Bill and Hillary Clinton claim that Hillary privately championed the use of U.S. troops to stop the genocide in Rwanda. That conversation left no public record, however, as U.S. policy was explicitly to stay out of Rwanda, and officials say that the use of U.S. troops was never considered.
Clinton''s tough speech on human rights delivered to a Beijing audience is as advertised, though Clinton herself has been dismissive of speeches that aren"t backed by solutions."

Two Wrongs don"t make a Wright.
I"ll see you Wright and raise you a Hagee.
Hate-filled pastor John Hagee, McCain"s favorite clergyman and supporter.
"All I can tell you is, I"m proud to have the support of Paster Hagee" - John McCain
"All I can tell you is, I"m proud to have the support of Pastor Hagee" - John McCain
Isn''t Hilary Clinton A WOMAN? lol
And isn''t Hilary Clinton the loser and very much in the same spot as Barack Obama, and getting as much media coverage as Obama?
There is no way that an American OF ANY ETHNIC GROUP OR GENDER could not have ran a similar grassroots campaign as Barack Obama.
Only, most US (master-servant) politicians rather run a ''top down'' campaign, where they treat the voters as extras in their campaign.
So to draw attention to pigmentation and gender and ignore Obama''s astuteness is ignorant and plain racist.
It is amazing that too many Americans are not bright enough to appreciate what a Harvard Law Degree and a university professor of Constitutional Law says about the intellect and capacity of one with such a lofty status.
When brains get old, they don''t work as well.
The Orwellian pronouncements of Penn, Ferraro and company are destroying the credibility of the Democratic Party as a whole.
Why should we choke to death on their sour grapes?
nickliu07, sir you have every right to support your choice for prez by whatever standard you choose---though, I don''t know too many people supporting her for her smile, confidence, positive attitude (?), and attractiveness. I hope you have or will focus on the issues also and see if you agree with her on that, too!
I''m glad more debates will take place, they may distinguish the ''shaff from the wheat''!
The only punch Hillary will be giving will be punch she serves with the brownies she''s baking. She really needs to end her pipe-dream about a woman becoming president and let the last two men standing, Obama and OLD man McCain, duke it out, which shouldn''t last long since the Obama shuffle will steamroll OLD man McCain.
When brains get old, they don''''t work as well.

I''m not old and I''m not supporting him...and I''m educated and rich....
Your post contains an offensive, ageist comment that reveals your immaturity. Often, with age comes wisdom. Be patient... eventually you''ll get there.
Assuming that you are attempting a description of Senator Obama, he is a lecturer at the University of Chicago on Constitutional Law, not a professor ... nor is he Clark Kent or the Green Lantern
No it is not. That tells me that I wouldn''t attend that church. By the way, the guy has been retired for over a year, so you need not worry if your thinking of joining.
Supporting someone as deceitful as Hillary will always make you have doubts.
To insult our country and to *** our country, while this man enjoys the very blanket of freedom that I (being military) provide, is absolutely unforgivable. I would NEVER vote for Obama. Not even for the president of the PTA. I HOPE THE SUPERDELEGATES OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY TAKE A GOOD HARD LOOK AT THIS BEFORE THEY MAKE THE DECISION TO GIVE THE NOMINATION TO SOMEONE WHO SEEMS TO BE LACKING IN GOOD JUDGEMENT WHERE HE RECEIVES HIS SPIRTUAL GUIDANCE.
This assassination by association *** has to stop. Same people who pay attention to this nonsense are those who think any campaign checks the background of ALL who give them money.
The whole country has to face up to its racist leanings and listenings. And no it is not JUST white tendencies..but you can see on these threads the perpetuation of racisit insinuation.
What is quite clear after phone conversations, and compiling pages of research and newspapers articles on the subject, is that Mr. Obama made a deal in his mind with someone who became his political godfather because he could make his dreams come true. It''s clear from Rezko''s unwinding problems that Obama either didn''t care how his patron got the money, or ignored it as long as the political contributions and access to others contributions kept coming. Considering Mr. Obama models himself as Mr. Hope and promises that he''ll change politics in Washington, this shouldn''t be a minor part of the Obama story. It''s his record, which directly conflicts with the image he''s selling that many people have not only bought into, but invested their hopes in as well. The fact that Obama and Rezko were friends for years is also not a minor point. Of course, there''s certainly no crime in that, but while Rezko was involved in a political "pay to play on steroids," it''s alarming that Obama remained, as he''s portraying his role, witless about what was going on right under his nose.
cont;
Additionally, as a community organizer, then as a state senator, how did Barack Obama not know of buildings in his own district that were in such dilapidated state? As a community organizer Obama had to know what this meant for his district to have such slum areas go untended by a negligent landlord. Was he ignorant, careless, or looking the other way? Or is there another explanation? Obama also accepted donations from Rezko while his urban housing empire was collapsing. Do you know how long it takes to pull apart a housing entity like Rezko''s? Where was Obama during all of this?

Fast forward to today. According to the Chicago Sun-Times this past Sunday, Obama is the "unnamed ''political candidate''" referred to in one section of court documents:
Obama is not named in the Dec. 21 court document. But a source familiar with the case confirmed that Obama is the unnamed %u201Cpolitical candidate%u201D referred to in a section of the document that accuses Rezko of orchestrating a scheme in which a firm hired to handle state teacher pension investments first had to pay $250,000 in %u201Csham%u201D finder%u2019s fees. From that money, $10,000 was donated to Obama%u2019s successful run for the Senate in the name of a Rezko business associate, according to the court filing and the source.
Rezko, who was part of Obama%u2019s senatorial finance committee, also is accused of directing %u201Cat least one other individual%u201D to donate money to Obama and then reimbursing that individual %u2014 in possible violation of federal election law.

Barack Obama WILL be our next President.
Get over it.
Here"s the Pastor that John McCain honors:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=4qNi7tPanUA
They just don"t get it.
And they are getting desperate now.
Their beloved C student in the White House, George W. Bush, is not about to be replaced by John McCain, a guy who finished #894 out of 899 at the Naval Academy.
The dynasty of dummies is coming to an end.
Barack Obama graduated with honors from Harvard Law.
Barack Obama will be our next President.
I am eagerly awaiting her tax release
