I believe that Hilary Clinton is far from what America needs at this time and in all honesty, who has the true answer to change our falling economy. I was truly happy to here that she was running for the Presidency but soon found myself disappointed, as I watched her act more like a sore loser than a champion. The question of Obama and his pastor has been so over exaggerated, it just shows how America still judges one persons action for the whole race/ political racial profiling. Now would anyone with good sense vote for someone that makes up a vivid story about there service as a first lady and didn’t remember it was recorded!!! Now farther more she doesn’t relate to most of the population, she has never missed a meal in her life and has only attended best of schools. Sounds more to me like a female Bush. Does anyone see the similarities Hilary is not Bill, Bush is not Bush Sr. He dodged the draft/ Bosnia was not hostile, Rezko/White Water just do your homework who has a worst track record, you judge. Hillary in office… would be like putting desperate housewives in office, there will be no solutions just more entertaining drama that could create a fatal blow to America as a whole.

I became so mad about the egregious comments and insults that Lanny Davis has been spreading about Obama on all the talk shows I decided to send Davis an email to urge him to stop it, in all decency. I soon discovered his law firm has all incoming emails to him blocked.

That leaves him clear to blow nasty attacks against Barack Obama all around the cable news channels and not have to hear from folks like me asking him to stop. I guess it was a stupid idea now that I think about it. He's not a very decent fellow but he's smart enough to block off emails from anyone who might disagree with him.

Hillary and others are stating that they would leave their church if their pastor said anything they diagreed with. No one leaves their synagogue when their rabbi says anything negative about the Jews' treatment by the Germans; no one leaves their church when a pastor says something disparaging about gays; no one even leaves their church when a pastor demonstrates prejudice and racism. Vice-president Dick Cheney believed Nelson Mandela should have remained in prison and saw him as a threat to the South African Apartheid government. Dick Cheney called F. W. DeKlerk a friend of America during the racist regime of apartheid. Should politicians have left America based on those statments and that position?

Perhaps Hillary was referring to one of the many cities in your own back yard and figured..oh well if it happens at home it must have happened in Bosnia. If the american folks are fed this crap while "Rome is burning" ,any wonder things are falling apart??

Hillary Clinton did not "misspeak" about Bosnia. I am a woman and if I was bombarded with bullets flying all around me. I would definitely have a clear memory of this event. And if I didn't I am quite sure my daughter would have one being that she was not a baby at the time of this so-called occurence. Hillary outright lied about those events. And the sad part about her fairytales is the fact that everytime she get caught up in a "misspeak" she tries to bring Senator Barack into the picture to take the spotlight off of herself. People are not as stupid as she think they are. Everytime she pulls on of those stunts, everyone is aware of what she is doing and it is not working. She says that Pastor Wright sermon is going to come back to haunt Senator Barack. She should be smart enough to know that that fairytale that she told will come back to haunt her also if she is nominated. When it is time for her to quote her war experiences and they run that clip of her walking calmly off the plane, Senator Mccain and his supporters will have a mighty good laugh. Oh! I forgot she says, well Hillary will you also forget to answer that phone at 3 in the morning when you are comfortable in your bed. When you get caught up in your fairytales, what are you going to do when you have to come face to face with reality. You won't have Senator Obama around to try to take the heat off of you for your mistakes.

I'm sorry, I just had to say....Tracy if you want to vote Republican, do it... nobody cares. I actually believe that ending the war and bringing our troops home, while salvaging what's left of our economy is more important than the silly back and forth from Clinton and Obama supporters. I'm actually an Obama supporter and I think that to be attacked for things you didn't say is just crap, but then Clinton can actually LIE about her so-called "foreign policy experience" and somehow be entitled to a pass on that. It speaks to ler lack of credibility and integrity. However, I would never hand the country over to a republican advertising a 3rd-term of Bush, just because I was too stubborn and selfish to rally behind the Democratic nominee. I think that's just childish.

I have loved and stood behind the Clintons from the very beginning. I was for Hillary initially but after the last two months I have lost respect for both of them and cannot support what they are about.

This race baiting is very upsetting and quite frankly, when you hear the whole Wright sermon in context, there is nothing there that is off the mark.

I don't like what the candidates are doing to each other but I am confident that the party will pull together and eventually take back the White House. Just look at the primary turnout. It's been five to ten times that of the republicans. We are in a good position.

I am appalled that the Democratic party leaders are allowing this type of conduct to continue day after day. Senator Clinton has endorsed Senator McCain, lied to the American public about a trip to Bosnia, and accused Senator Obama of any and everything in an attempt to represent this Country for the next four years. Let's be honest, Senator Obama should have done a little damage control long before Fox News pushed the Rev. Wright sermons.

We as mature Americans need to call on the media to report the issues that we are experiencing daily and not the gloom and doom of personal attacks as it relates to this Democratic Presidential campiagn daily.

We deserve better.......

Mad as heck at both Candidates, who need to grow up and conduct themselves like ADULT!

I don't blame Tracy for saying she would go Republican. The Obama people are so fanatical and mesmerized by his amazing talent at speech making that the issues don't even seem to matter. Their venom and hatred towards the Clintons, their strategy to disenfranchise voters by insisting that Hilary throw in the towel when she is only less than 200 delegates behind. I don't see Dick Cheney being called the monster that he is – it's like all their hatred towards Bush is transferred to the Clintons. Two of the most progressive people to ever be in politics. I lived through the Clinton years and no one except the Republicans was complaining.

It is fun to read these comments from Clintonists who accuse CNN and everyone else for lies which are spread by campaign team or directly by HRC. Today she attacked Obama for Rev. Wright even though whole world already knows who spoke about "Americas chickens" Well may be these guys are not reading newspapers or blogs on Internet anymore. More important than her attack seems to me where the attack took place. She firstly came out with Rev. Wright in interview for Right Wing Republican Pittsburgh Tribune-Review Magazine where she went to visit.
The same people who accordance MSNBC were standing behind many nasty attacks against Clintons in past. Isn't it scary such a connection? I think it is but it shows exactly what HRC is about. She has to win whatever it costs and well republicans have already nice movie for her which is now possible to watch partly on Youtube.
I fear that she is going to win PA by huge margin because of faulty republicans game. I hope I am wrong and Obama wins the nomination.

the way the media plays into this campaign is really troublesome and I find it a real weakness that the Clinton camp doesn't play the gender card as they should since Hilary is continually attacked for not being perfect – this is real sexism at its core. when I go onto the blogs I see horrible and disgusting references that demean her as a woman.

Any reference to anything black is perceived as 'racist' when the overcompensation for white guilt is a subtle form of racism. Obama can continuously play the race card and the victim card and get away with it.

btw, I saw footage the other day of his new pastor who compared Rev. Wright to Jesus and used the word "lynching" in his speech. I found it disgusting and deplorable. but all Barak has to do is make an excuse and say that sounds reasonable.

when oh when is Obama going to talk issues – his weak suit – instead of personal attacks against Clinton. He keeps saying let's talk the issues to seem like he's taking the high ground while his supporters compare Bill Clinton to Joe McCarthy.

We hear a lot of talk of experience, but for the past 7 years, all committees in the House and Senate have been led by Republicans. We have to look at Congressional records and the Federal Register to see what important legislation has been either offered or supported by the Democrats. It seems that Sen. Obama has the lead unless you want to count the naming of Post Offices and recognition days for Sen. Clinton.

When are CNN's anchors and news contributors going to start covering stories without biasing the coverage towards the obvious candidate of their choice–Obama? Do you really think your viewers cannot tell who you are supporting in this presidential election? Did the paradoy on SNL teach you nothing? Come on CNN quick supporting a specific candidate, and start presenting the news in an unbiased fashion. Clinton has been at the forefront of your issue #1 (the economy) since the beginning. She is the only one offering real solutions to the crisis facing the middle class. At least she is offering a plan about the economy. John McCain says he knows nothing about the issue, and Obama is taking a vacation. Must be nice!!!

Hillary credited her previous lies about bosnia to sleep deprivation...
This story told by her is clearly a fabrication, not a misspeak, or "honest mistake. Is she someone that hallucinates in the midst of sleep depravation?? OMG what might she "imagine" in the future surely she'll be sleep deprived next to the red phone.

The reason why hilliary keep getting bashed because she is always lying she is always acting very erractic behaviour and i guess it must be menopause,schizoeffective disorder or bipolar.
well I guess sometimes she feel like a nut and sometimes she dont.
Peter paul don't have nothing on hilliary.

PLEASE NOTE THAT HILLARY USES THE NEWSPAPER–THE PITTSBURGH TRIBUNE-REVIEW–OWNED BY MELLON SCAIFE (THE PERSON SHE ONCE ACCUSED OF RUNNING A 'VAST RIGHT-WING CONSPIRACY' AGAINST THE CLINTONS) TO RESURRECT THE WRIGHT CASE AGAINST OBAMA.

It is amazing the amount of news that is repeated over and over again throughout the day, and is understandable to a certain extent. However, we are represented by a government that is elected by its people....and this government is not only embarrassing but shameless. Why is Bush and Cheney not being held to this day accountable for comments and actions that represent Americans. I for one do NOT want them to represent myself or my four children. The comments and actions by these two are not only misleading but show no concern for the welfare of any living and breathing thing. To me this is news. Our government represents this country, which is every citizen and that by itself in my opinion is an outrage!! The sheep are watching as well as the rest of us, so show them what they need to see, and just maybe it will help them to decide what not to vote for in November...
