That is about the only difference between the two. But really who’s to say there isn’t more. Obama hasn’t exactly been forthcoming on his ideas or plans on the issues. I’ve barely heard any of them. Like the women on the 360 report said last night people are in love with the idea of Obama and not Obama’s ideas…he has not told them.

I am upset that Hillary will not be our next Dem nominee.. Everyone talks about not trusting her. How can this country trust a man who tells us how he came from nothing? How he grew up with a single mom on food stamps?? Come on.. Mom was a college grad, dad came here on a student visa to study and left his pregnant wife in Kenya, moved on to Harvard and met another woman, got her pregnant too and took her back to Kenya.. Grams was a president of a bank.. Mom’s family owned slaves and at 10 years old he was sent to a prestigious school in Hawaii.. It does not add up. I heard it again this monring how Obama came from nothing.. That is such a lie.. His mom milked the system. I came from nothing and even when my dad got sick, my parents kept supporting us with their money and didn’t look at the system for help. Those programs are there for the people who need them. Not for college grad women whose mom is a bank president… I came from nothing. people like me come from nothing.. NOT Obama! All his lies will come out when the GOP get a hold of him.. It all sounds good when you are trying to fill the pages of a book.

WHY IS a Holiday gas tax Silly ? Anytime Americans can catch a break (Though beit a small one) Im all for it !! There are many people that communte a fair distance each day to and from work, perhaps using 4 to 5 gallons a day with a savings of up to a $1 per day. Thats $25 per month (Not counting weekends) and $75 for the summer ! Why is that Meaningless? We all know that a long term solution is the ultimate answer, nobody is dening that - You know like enforcing some of our Price gauging laws in this country that our government has convienently turned a blind eye to. The idea that the mega billions that the oil companies are making somehow does not equal price gauging is a joke. I just dont understand why Obama would oppose ANYTHING that would put a few extra dollars in the pockets of Americans ? If the Oil Companies gave something back to this Country in the form of PAYING THE GAS TAX for the summer, How is that a Bad thing for America ? And by the way, WHAT IS OBAMAS PLAN ?? DOES ANYBODY KNOW ?? DOES HE KNOW ??

First of all who cares what she says now!
Second if she felt so strongly about universal health care, her husband had 8 yrs to put her plan into effect.

If Hillary is my next Commander In Chief, I will move to Australia when my Military Career is over in 2years. Obama is my number one pick. On top of that I have not voted yet. When November comes around I will make sure I am the first one in line voting for OBAMA.

Hillary,
You can possibly start a car in second gear if it’s going down hill.
For an uphill start, try bull low. Again, like with McCain’s gas tax holiday plan, Barrack is showing fiscal sense, combined with the compassion of the health care issue. You espouse a possibly unattainable plan to win politically, while he aims for something that has a chance to get off the ground instead of the vote grabbing approach.
No wonder he is getting so much support from independents, republicans, and educated folk. Let the nominee go with the plan his supporters voted for, and don’t try to foist your losing agenda on anyone.
(Oh, and study ‘universal’ health care, like we have in Canada. It’s NOT all it’s cracked up to be.)

Hillary so proudly boast for universal health care. Her plan is unrealistic. Universal Health Care will never happen in the United States….medicine is too capitalistic in this country. Is she aware of how much a medical education cost? How would she make doctors conform? Most clinicians would refuse the insurance. She would have to raise a complete different culture of physicians.

Perhaps if she attacks the issues of medical liability and the monopoly that lawyers and insurance companies have over the health care arena then she would have my respect.

I do not agree with the manditory coverage portion of her plan.
So she could go to the floor of the convention with the Universal care nonsense to carve out some victory …..and when she can’t get it through congress then I bet her approval rating will be even less.

Consider this….90% of people :young old rich and poor carry cell phones. The average cost of a montly cell phone bill would carry basic health coverage. …Food for thought.

with all the controversy over Obama and religion… my question is. If elected president will he swear or affirm the oath on a bible?

I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” — Article II, Section 1, clause 8 - U.S. Constitution

Hillary has fought for Americans to get worthy healthcare for decades. She hasn’t given up on us yet, and I hope we don’t give up on her. My signs are in my yard since I voted for her in South Carolina. I am PROUD to support her, as she is trying to look out for me. I am an educated, Company CEO, Mother, Wife, “White”, hard working American. I wish Hillary was “Black” and Obama was “White” this race would have been over well before the Republican primary was.

Think long and hard about that you RACISTS…..

There recently was a very good special on TV (PBS?) comparing various health care policies in France, Canada, Germany and elsewhere. One thing they all agreed on was that for the system to work, EVERYONE had to be covered. This is where I feel Obama is a bit naive, but will still vote for him assuming he becomes the nominee.

I think Hillary is smart to stay in until early June just because the voting record of the electorate will be there if it becomes useful to her for some reason later. Once she’s out, she can’t undo it. I really don’t think it is hurting the democratic party. Everyone will forget come August. Plus, coming from a later state (PA), Kentucky and others should have the rare thrill to actually have a choice. It doesn’t feel like much of a democracy when everything is decided before your turn.

Last week I interviewed for a job. I know I am qualified - I have the experience and the ability to take on this job and do it well. I did my best at the interviews and, I thought, I gave all the right answers.

They haven’t called. I keep checking my cell phone for missed calls. I check for phone messages as soon as I get home but there aren’t any.

I’m disappointed - I had a lot of plans for what I was going to do in my new position. But they chose someone else and I’m going to have to accept it. They aren’t interested in my ideas of how things should be done. Someone else was more qualified, or more likeable, or had the edge for whatever reason.

Hillary, you weren’t selected for the job. Your ideas were not what the voters wanted in the campaign - or now. It’s time to accept it and move on.

Keep going Hillary!!! You will win the Democratic Primary popular vote and polls show you will beat McCain in Nov. in swing states (these polls show Obama would not win these swing states). Take it to the convention and let all of the delegates vote, including Fl. and Mich. Hillary 08!!!! She can save our country!!!

Hillary has had a health care plan for the past 20 years. Bill said she had millions of papers and thousands of people working on it.

I hope that tonight’s political coverage will not be all
HRC all of the time. Will you all also carrying any of
the Obama events tonight ?

She want to make health care like car insurance. If you don’t pay your car insurance they drop you. If you don’t pay your health insurance she’ll fine you.

Hillary Clinton healthcare proposals are no better than Obama’s. Unfortunately, the gas holiday that Hillary Clinton and John McCain are proposing is only short term. We need someone to look beyond the immediate but into the future to resolve are energy crisis in long term and I feel that it’s Obama although, I voted for Hillary in the state primary but I will correct that mistake and vote for Obama in the general election. People, please do not blame Obama for the Michigan and Florida debacle, and put the blame on their state local government that caused all the problems.

Yes! We all know West Virginia will vote for Hillary Clinton, as she stated the American “White” workers are the backbone of America and that pretty much eliminating all the other ethnicities that keep America functioning on a daily basis.

Rahni, Connecticut

Hillary, you and Bill need to go to Canada or some place far. I use to be crazy about you all - I reality thought the world of you all, but NOW I WHEN I SEE YOU ALL ON TV - I TURN THE CHANNEL!

Hillary Clinton is wasting people’s time and money. She has failed to gather people’s vote, not only that but she has also failed to budget her own campaign. If she has to take a debt to finance her own campaign, how will she manage failing US economy?

Why is the media spinning the West Virginia issue so much like it would be a big deal for Clinton if Obama loss big or small?
The whole point is the media doesn’t seem to remember that McCain is the Republican nominee but he loss the West Virginia race in February, so if Obama loss it why is it a big deal? I don’t think it should be since McCain loss it also, so if Obama is the nominee then that will be a test for both candidate.

Why do you guys keep putting up stuff about her? She’s no longer relevant….

Whatever “line-in-the-sand” she chooses will be an intelligent one. The convention HAS to know that most democrats will NOT vote for Obama if he’s the nominee….we Will be forced to go with McCain. This country has to have integrity, experience, and intelligence in a nominee for President of this U.S. Obama would be putting “Wright” people in the “wrong” place!

Barack is a man on no substance….HRC has plenty of substances… Vote Hillary for President………………

it could be the best health care plan ever but HRC has already proven her inability to get it done. if her administration were run anyhting like her campaign God Help Us All

I think Hillary will fight till her dying breath for the American people.

That is why so many people are voting for her. Millions of people
are going to write her name in on the ballot if she is not the nominee.

We really believe in her, she is more thanYES WE CAN speeches.

The Democratic race has been a run of interest to the world over, should the DNC take away the nomination from Obam then guess what message it sends to the entire world. Already many are saying that the key questions are not being asked by the media, like, Hillary is sounding as is she has a right to the nomination beacuse she appeals to the blue collar white Americans, is America justy white & how important is the Black, latino & every other vote to her?

I am universally yours Senator Clinton. I was just nursing my emotional health. Now I’m weaned off and ready to bloom!

Bill:

The Congress of the United States ( including Senator Clinton & Senator Obama) take money from insurance companies and the drug companies. Is one hand going to vote for universal healthcare while the hand is pocketing the money?

Susan
Phoenixville,PA

She’s had a couple of times when she pulled off a victory. Maybe she’s still expecting a hat trick. It will be interesting to see where all this is going.

this gas holiday. we would get the 18 cents in our pockets and at the same time the oild companies would feel the loss of money. The highway fund would be fine. The oil companies pay that right to the IRS when the import comes in. The companies in turn tax us the 18 cents at the pump to make up for what they paid to the highway fund, Does the media or Obama know anything? They never brought this up.. EVER.. it would of meant a small amount of money in our pockets and a huge loss for the oil companies.. I liked that idea… granted they would probably bring up the price even more, but at this rate does it really matter? We don’t know where they are going to stop and my husband and I would of had an extra 80$ in our pocket and the oil companies would not be making such a huge profits for a little while…

Hey Isaac,

Hillary and Bill were pretty good to us when they were in office.. That was a presidency that was color blind. Many people have gone off to a “change”.. well i wish them luck with this “change”..which is only a word that people who are so tired of Bush enjoy hearing..

Obama is not going to bring the soldiers home right away.. Are you kidding?!?! If Obama was in the senate it is obvious he would of voted for the war.. Had he been pressured with what was going on then.. It didn’t take him long to say ” his views on the war were the same as Bush” not too long ago.. he swings over to whatever people want to hear…

You notice when Obama talks about the small amount people will save under Hillary’s plan he prefaces it with “the AVERAGE’ person.
His thinking does not include , truck drivers, farmers who have to
get their goods to market, long distance commuters, taxi drivers etc.
The man is a good talker alright , You have to listen very carefully to what he says and more carefully to what he doesn’t say .

How can he totally ignore West Virginia now during the primaries
and then when and if he is the nominee , go back to them with
his tail between his legs and convince these same people he
ignored and basically told them they weren’t relevant, that he
now cares about them and their issues.
Also, what right do people have who have had their vote and
their voices heard that the people who have yet to vote shouldn’t
have their voices heard and have their constiutional right to
vote.

CNN rarely reads any of these blogs on the air…especially when they promote Hillary…they like to promote Obama’s campaign and they even talk like he’s already the nominee….can’t wait to see their faces when, as we all know, she’s the more electable and more experienced, they have to say maybe she will ask him to be her running mate! Besides, most Clinton supporters will not vote for him if he’s the nominee….not because they are shallow (as someone on CNN said) but because they know that this country cannot afford that kind of mistake….God Bless the USA

Al Gore won the popular vote in the 2000 election but still lost because of the electorial college. Could we get Mr King and his map wizzardy to give the two democrat canidates a winner take all in each of the states they have won and see what the electorial college would look like. My feelings on the election are they should have more winner take all states then to basically evenly divide the delegates and this election probally would have been decided long ago.

The democrats can’t even handle their own delegates and super-delegates; what makes people think they can run the entire country’s health care?

@Nicole A from Florida
“medicine is too capitalistic in this country. Is she aware of how much a medical education cost? How would she make doctors conform? Most clinicians would refuse the insurance. She would have to raise a complete different culture of physicians. ”
Anybody who is president should listen to Nicole, and study Canada. In a more socialistic country, where we have had ‘universal’ health care for years, the 2 points you bring up are always in contention up here. Check out the long line ups for surgeries, and the continual controversy about the private clinics which sprouted up.
We have moved to a 2 tier system. As Nicole says, I don’t see how America, the land of capitolism, will be able to embrace ‘universal’ care!?

I am all for Hillary and will not vote for Obama because he has no plan that will work for this country. Because I am a registered Dem they will try to put Obama signs on my lawn, well I will just have to burn them to the ground. Nuff said.

She is going to win the nomination and she is going to win the GE. The only people who don’t want her to get the nomination, much less win the GE, are the people who are so mad at the Clintons for having as much power as they do. They have done just about everything they can to try to derail her campaign in order to prevent her from being the nominee. That way they don’t have to go up against her….because they know she would win. Bottom line: they can’t stand losing/not having enormous political power.

The Kennedys, Pelosi, Dean, and all of the other big players in Washington who are democrats want nothing more than to see her fail…..and they are willing to do anything to make sure that that happens. What they don’t seem to understand is that she won’t quit the race for the nomination, no matter what. If anything, this is making her stronger. Obama is a Manchurian Candidate…..that’s all he is. Just someone who will do other’s bidding. And they know that Clinton won’t go along with their stupid left wing liberal ideas.

WHATEVERRR, She Lost…

If the democrats wants to win in November, Hillary is the right choice!

Hillary will do better in November!!

Obama will be smack hard with inexperienced, Pastor Wright, Ayers, Rezko and how he is going to pay for all his promises.

Hillary 08!!

Barack Obama is the most trustworthy of all three of them, we haven’t heard any of McSame, or Hillary’s dirt yet because Barack wasn’t running their kind of campaign…. In the general Barack is going to take off his gloves, watch out McSame supporters… They have nothing els on Barack
and for a polition Thats Great!!!
Yes…We..Can…
Yes…We..Can…

Wow! Here is guy who wants to be the President of ALL the people and yet he didn’t show up in WV.

He lost my vote!

If She is so experienced, then why is her compaign OVER BROKE!!!? Why has she been fighting Obama like He’s a republican??? Why is she behind in every way??? Why is She deviding the party??? Oh and I am married to a Hispanic Man, and oh yes they will vote for Barack in the general, don’t get it twisted…

WOW! I never thought I would agree with the Clintons, but they are right! CNN’s political analysts are sooo
transparent! they dislike Hilary Clinton! and like Obama and the commentaries are so easily dicifered, to be pro Obama, what ever happen to fair reporting!?
And the African American analysts you have including Brazile, are so Pro Obama! This can only help my candidate McCain, you go racists, I mean brothers and sisters.

Let’s see–if you vote for Obama, you’re well-educated, white and rich, or African American.

If you vote for Hillary, you’re racist, white, and drooling down the front of your shirt. Barely able to write your own name but still capable of voting.

The similarities between the two? Each vote counts exactly the same. Might want to stop labeling people as you’re managing to drive a wedge that won’t be healed by November.

And calling the Clinton supporters sore losers is rather humorous. Have you never heard the term ‘gracious winner’?

Well, it doesn’t matter anymore. Hillary cannot win without black votes and Barack can’t win without white votes. Whose fault is this? Hillary Clinton. Obama has never said I can get the good black people’s vote or the good educated people’s vote. She said I can get the good hard working white people’s vote. Well, so be it. The Clintons and only the Clintons have raise the issue of race and the Clinton News Network has helped them take our country back. Who cares? I’m staying home come November.

I hope HRC does make this a defining issue at the convention; while I understand the importance of insuring the children universal health care gets us all - hopefully insulating us from the prospect of a parent being sick and unable to receive treatment and unable to earn a living. Without health insurance for the parents as well as the children, the children are still at risk of economic hardship should one of their parents become ill. Hillary’s plan is the only one that meets all the needs and really gets at the core of the healthcare problem. I hope she is given a chance to implement it!

Annie Kate
Birmingham AL

Barack can get all vote’s, if People are stupid enough to not vote for Barack Obama, that means they want to die broke, and there kids die fighting a useless war. Black People have gotten it right the last two Presidental elections,Why should we listen to WV when they can’t seem to get it right, the Media should be talking about this.

RIGHT ON, KAREN! AND HILLARY HASN’T LOST YET! SOME PEOPLE WOULD LIKE HER TO “SHUT UP AND SIT DOWN” (HOW MANY STRONG WOMEN HAVE HEARD THAT!) BUT SHE IS BY FAR THE BEST CANDIDATE AND I HOPE SHE CONTINUES TO IGNORE THE PUNDITS.

NANCY

This universal health care plan that she keeps banking on is very similar to the failing manditory health care plan that exists in MA. No wonder the MA representatives support Sen. Obama. If it is not working properly in a single state why would you try to implement this on a grand scale?

Someone please call her at 3 am to tell her this show is over. It’s time for her and Bill to use what little power they have left to unite the party. And please tell her that it is embarassing for her supporters to say they won’t vote or they will vote for John McCain if she is not the nominee. Would you really jeopordize the country Sen Clinton if you aren’t the nominee?

Universal health care is too extreme a change for the health care system to put in place in the next four years. It is just an empty promise. Obama’s health care plan makes more sense and is practical enough to really put into place. If you look at his policies detailed on his website you will find they are all practical and will work.

What Obama supporters across the spectrum understand is if he has a democratic majority in the house and senate, his cabinet (chosen for their abilities rather than because of favoritism or cronyism) will be able to make positive changes in Washington and in this country. We will all benefit.

This election is a rollercoaster ride on which we are being asked to examine our core beliefs and fears. Hold on tight and eventually we’ll be out of the rapids. No one said change would be easy. I believe this democratic race will turn out to have been good for the country. I believe it is all part of the social evolution this country is experiencing as we move forward into the 21st century. It is time we, as a nation, recognize people throughout this country and the world do have common values and hopes and no one is better than anyone else.

Thank you CNN for presenting an intelligent and fair examination of all sides of this election process.

Obama 2008

What is She talking about? Barack Obama has a better plan that hers; economists agree and support his plan for universal health care. Clinton plan actually will be bad for me, because it’s mandatory. The huge difference is, Barack stand for change in politics and other issues. He don’t do any favor to PAC or special interest which takes me to holiday gas, in which she played the old politics and her close door meeting to solve universal health care [booed by many struggle American].

The most interesting thing tonight is that a Democrat Won the Mississippi Special Election held by Republicans for so many years.

Paul Begala’s comment about not having anything to talk about if Senator Clinton withdraws is completely superficial and outrageous! How about talking about Myanmar? or China? or Colombia? or the Fed and Bear Stearns? How about the rising cost of food or oil? How about the floods in the Midwest? Say something worthwhile.

Senator Obama’s health care package is available if one wants to pay for it instead of a new 54 inch HD TV. Even those families who can afford it will find a reason not to buy in. He seems happy that hard working white peoples’ taxes are paying for health care, food, housing and other expenses of irresponsible people.
He is a socialist. Period.
Voters need to think hard and long before electing a socialist type.

Obama defended Wright, refused to disown him, then did disown him. Obama wants change - what change? He appeals the most to the young idealists - think about it - the most liberal Senator elected President with a likely Democratic Senate! If you want a little common sense moderation here, you might want to think about Clinton as the Democratic candidate.

My beloved democratic party needs to wake up! Sen. Obama does not have any chance of winning the general election against McCain. And, for the first time, the issue of Clinton supporters NOT voting for Obama even if he is the nominee, has finally come to the air waves. In the polling of WV voters, the results are clear….Clinton backers are not buying Obama’s pipe dreams regarding the future. This is a BIG problem for Obama. In addition, Obama has so much negative baggage, just wait until the Republican machine unleashes holy war against him and his wife’s ridiculous comments!! Will the party nominate a canidate that does not even reverence the flag during the Pledge or the National Anthem? Not going to happen chairman Dean….Clinton supporters will not be with you. Plan B?

Apparently, Hillary thinks arrogance is a good presidential trait.

I wonder why she pushes Florida and Michigan then turns around and says some states are better then others because she won there. What kind of a presidency would she have. I can see her setting in her chair the VP comes in and says he made a decision. She asks him if he ran it by her new cabinate position Exec VP Bill Clinton.

Obama is heading down the same path that Kerry did in 2004 which cost Kerry his bid for the Presidency, both of them is leaning to far to the left and alienating rational discerning voters who are at the political center. First of all, although the Iraq war appears to be a huge mistake including the reasons supporting the war, the war on terror is very real. Islamic extremist as well as the governments that support them cannot be dealt with diplomacally without surrendering our sovereignty, our freedoms and our values. Obama cannot afford to downplay this reality with uplifting speeches about his personal life. He needs to start using strong language (almost premptive) so that it strikes fear in the hearts of our enemies. Second, he cannot preach strong family values and at the same time embrace gay marriages. Lastly, his view on raising income tax needs to be withdrawn to ensure responsible taxpayers that they will not be unjustly given the bill for those who do not properly exercise financial restraint and personal responsibility. If he follows these three things, he will beat McCain. If not, he will loose big!

Senator Obama is a man of character. Unlike Hillary who is full of contradictions and deceptions. Hillay Clinton has been willing to cheat, lie, stab her workers in the back and manipulate us by fear to vote for her. Senator Obama has something very important that Hillay Clinton and John McCain doesn’t have and that is character. When Obama is president he will help us find our way.

After seeing Obama speech today I can remember why I like him and at the same time why I changed my mind… Change for the sake of change is no change at all!

I think Hillary Clinton biggest problem is that 60% of Americans don’t trust her. Clinton has done everything from negative ads, cheapshots, slander to blow Obama out of this race besides honest. Hillary Clinton has conflicting, flip flop oppositions that lead most of supporters to Obama in the first place. Her vote for the war, her support for Nafta during the Clinton administration, and her bosnia gaffe, never was discussed or spoke in greater detail inwhich may have cost her this election. This is also true with the gas tax holiday gimmick. Everybody else thought it was a terrible idea and here is Hillary Clinton and her campaign trying to make sense of how it could work instead of the chances of it really happening. She has a problem with realizing she made a mistake and confronting it head on. Instead she fights it to the end and hopes it goes away but it does along with some of her support. Hillary Clinton has not been herself throughout this campaign, she’s worn several different faces and its a problem to voters who are comparing a new president to the likes of President Bush. If Hillary Clinton is coming off untrustworthy and pandering just to get votes it makes people feel she doesn’t mean what she say’s. This is what has worked for Obama. Letting Hillary look like the bad guy and going on the stump and telling people she’s who he’s not and arguing change. The sad thing about it is Hillary Clinton still doesn’t know where she went wrong because Obama is right, Hillary only thinks fighting is the only requirment but she normally ends up fighting her own party. This is true with her universial healthcare that she’s braggs about advocating for 15 years. This is also true now, she’s fighting to stay in a race inwhich she is a Democrat nominee. Why is she always in the position to fight those inwhich she’s supposed to be apart off. Has any body notice this about Hillary Clinton.

Hillary had 8 years to get universal health care and failed. What makes her think she will get it done this time? She owes to many favors to too many funders of her campaign to get anything changed in Washington.

All of the states that Hillary’s winning are clearly Racist, why are we not talking about that, and they are the states that have been picking our President for all of these years, that is why Black People have had it so hard for all of these years!!!!

Hillary needs to drop out. Too much baggage. Either Obama or Clinton can win West Virginia in the fall. Both candatates are so close to each other on issues that fighting McCain requires a candidate with the least baggage. That is Obama.

Bill and Hillary carry heavy baggage from eight years of travelgates land deals, mysterys, special procecutors and impeachment etc. The the Republicans will run on Bill and Hillary’s baggage. Republicans have nothing else. Bill and Hillary will bring Republicans out in droves to vote against her and not cross over for Obama as many are inclined to do now.

Democrats are playing into the Republican play book. Stop it!!

Anderson Cooper himself said many times while selling his book that “Hope is not a plan”. Should Senator Obama win this nomination, I will hope he can see his way through the fog with absolutely no compass. I think the reason so many pundits and anchors have stopped talking about Iraq in regards to this election is that we all know - conservatives, liberals, democrats, republicans - that we cannot leave the Iraqi people behind. To the world,collectively we Americans started this war. Collectively, we must end it without leaving the Iraqi people to suffer even more. I was 13 when the films of the evacuation of the U.S. Embassy from Vietnam ran. All those innocent people from the roof of the Embassy begging to be airlifted away. The ensuing torment of the people left behind still echoes.

Two election issues I’d like to address here:

1. Regarding the Democratic candidate in the November elections:
In one breath, Hillary claims that she should be the nominee because she can deliver “key,” “swing,” “big” and/or “red” states and that Barack cannot. In the next breath, she claims that she will support/campaign for whoever is the Democratic nominee. Does that mean that she will only put forth the effort to deliver those states in November if SHE is the Democratic nominee? If so, her word means nothing.

2. Regarding the Michigan and Florida early primary issue:
The rules were known by both the voters and the candidates months before the polls opened. No one was hoodwinked. All candidates agreed to abide by the rules and signed pledges to adhere to the DNC’s primary calendar rules. Now that Hillary is behind in delegates, she is protesting that people in Michigan and Florida are being disenfranchised. Why protest now and not before the voting in those states began? The only thing that has changed is that she isn’t winning.

What does changing the rules when you are behind tell our young people? It tells them that it doesn’t matter what you agree to in the beginning, all that matters is that you do whatever you have to do to win. If the rules are changed now, isn’t that tantamount to what happened in Kansas when the School Board overturned the teacher’s grades for the students who plagiarized? There, too, the participants (parents and students) signed off on what the penalty would be for plagiarism. How not to play fair nor keep one’s word, is not what we should be teaching our children.

Isn’t the bottom line for both these issues that Hillary will say whatever she has to and agree to whatever she has to until she convinces enough people that she should win. Doesn’t that mean that she doesn’t care about keeping her word? Isn’t that “business as usual” in politics?

If Obama is the likely democratic nominee,

Why did he got blown away in W Virginia?

Because he will not be the nominee.

Hillary will be the nominee.

Hillary 08!!

everyone wonders if the democratic party will come together and vote for sen obama for the president……..i would bet that if sen obama gets the nomination that john mccain will win……cnn seems to forget his minister and the rest of his baggage that he brings to the table…. if all these poll takers would do some extensive polls in the states that already voted they might get a different take on how people feel now that his baggage has been laid out…….he is just another politician……..you want change? check your pockets if he gets elected………what a joke

The only line in the sand is that Hillary and Bill is damaging the Democratic Party with their ‘poor loser tactics.’ I wish they would go and hide under the biggest rock in a far away land.

Hilliary is talking about Universal Health Care what she is not telling every body She will have the Government to take it out of their Income tax check and it will be mandatory for every one whether they can afford it or not.
That will be like we are in a Third World Country and America is suppose to be the Land Of The Free.
Sure it sound nice the way she says it but people need to ask her how will she accomplish that.
She already stated that uneducated white Folks voted for her and Educated White Filks vote for Obama.
Heath Care for Adults should be their Choice Not Hilliary.
I believe all Children should be covered and let the Adults make up their own minds about Health Care.

I’m not so sure why everyone thinks Hillary is doing so great. She’s only winning the unedcuated “bluecollar lunch-bucket” voters. If I was a bluecollar worker I sure would be insulted to the max. Maybe all these uneducated, bluecollar lunch-bucket voters need to get on the band wagon with the “EDUCATED, affluent voters and vote Obama.
