I guess McCain’s age becomes the media hulabaloo just as race and gender did for Obama and Clinton. PLEASE report on real issues in the campaign. I’d rather have an older experienced man in the White House than a young, unexperienced one with no sense of reality in politics or foreign affairs. And Hillary has a point. If she can win the blocs she did, Obama isn’t so electable after all in a contest where more than a select few will come out and vote. The voters are deeply divided. Nothing is happening to bridge that gap because she is the better candidate and many know it. The Democrats should as a whole face reality here. But the horrors that their golden boy isn’t so golden after all…

McCain and ‘ageism’….sorry I’ve had enough ‘race’ and ‘gender’ discussions.
Mark Penn and demographics only serve to divide ‘I am, You are, We are Americans’.
Could we please discuss his “mental status” while demanding his medical records, medications, the possible implications of melanoma?

And she crushed him - Obama didn’t campaign there. She is still not going to be on the ticket. She is not even in Obama’s thoughts on being on his ticket. He can win - because just as McCain will get the Dem haters - Obama will be getting the Rep. haters as well.

Okay what now change the rules for Hillary Clinton. How can anyone connect with the rich and powerful. This tell me is’t about Obama been black and that lots of white american would not and will not vote for anyone thats not of the same race with them. Hillary will not get back lots of the black vote every again because of what the Clinton’s have done pit white against black this is not good. In the back of my head how must i look and think about my white friend and co-works would out thinking about all of this. Just watch the state that are very racist. If all blacks was to leave america how would white treat each other of the same white race?

This is a sad day in america to hear my parents talk about the 50’s and 60’s i feel like i’m leaving the 50’s and 60’s in 2008. This is killing my hope that make that whites think they are better than blacks. God made all man in his image we and bleed, eat and die the same way.

Hillary will never drop out and give this nomination over to Obama. She will take it as far as she can even if that means to the convention. She didn’t come this far to throw in the towel no matter what Dean or anyone else says. The only way she will leave is if Obama gets enough delegates to win, otherwise she is in for the long haul.

Gary went hiking with John McCain!? That I have got to see!! I really don’t see John’s age being a big deal. There are a lot of older people that have more spunk and drive than the younger ones. Plus he is very seasoned in politics and world affairs. Isn’t that what a president supposed to be?

I hope that CNN will put things in perspective. Yes HRC had
a huge victory in WVA, but that does not mean she can deliver
WVA and other states in November. It is a different electorate
in the primaries than come November. There is no data to
support this claim. Last night I saw HRC supporters taking
to the airwaves on CNN mentioning Obama in the same
breath as Mondale and others. If you google Mondale, you
will see he was soundly defeated in the November election.
How can they say Obama will face the same fate in 2008?
It is as if the Clinton camp is making a mockery of the
Obama’s presidential run. You can not ignore him.
If you listen closely to the speech from last night, it was
laced with words that point to an exit strategy. I also have
heard reporters say behind the scene some of her staffers
are looking for jobs. That speaks volumes. Math still is not
her BFF. To say the Sups should change the rules and hand
her the nomination is crazy. And you wonder why people are cynical when it comes to politics. There have been some recent
congressional races that say nothing is certain in the 2008
election Dems have defeated Repubs in 3 special elections.

Hillary won WV and the voters let it be known that race was the number
one factor. However, they must know that they no longer lead the country
with that type of thinking. Even the rest of the state that WV is stuck to,
Virginia trounced Hillary in the primary. Only a little over 250,000 people
voted in WV. That goodness the voters of West Virginia aren’t the
majority of America. I guess that’s why Senator Obama is winning.

I get so aggravated with Hilary Clinton and the media implicating that Barack Obama can’t attract “white blue collar workers.” Lets talk about what is really going on. There are many “white blue collar workers” that wouldn’t vote for Obama simply because he is black. It has nothing to do with his message or inability to reach them. It is simply based on the fact that “racism” is extremly alive in these areas. It is very ironic that the population in these areas are predominatley white and the African Amercian sample is almost non existent. Most of these people are direct decendants of racist families and they wouldn’t vote for a black man if he told them everything they wanted to hear. Turns out- most “white blue collar workers” make up the population of white racist voters who would only vote for a white candidate regardless. This is why when given the choice to back Obama or switch to Mccain they will ultimatley switch to Mccain. This is not an Obama issue and there is nothing that can be done about these “white blue collar workers” racist attitudes and their inability to vote based on the issues. For them, Race is most important issue. This is also why you see many African Amercians indicating that if Obama is not the nominee, they will still support Clinton. African Americans in general are not going to exercise racism in voting because we have always had a white president and we view clinton as a good candidate also.

Everybody knew Hilliary was going to win West Virgina and she is still behind in popuplar votes Pledged Delegates and Superdelegates she is to far behind to catch up this late in the game.
Another poll was out about Michigan that Obama won Michigan and not Hilliary.
The DNC act like they are afraid of the Clintons and Hiliiary is trying to steal the Nonmination from Obama.
They {Bill & Hilliary} seems to have a sense of entitlement to the White House.
Hilliary said last night it takes 2209 to win the Nonmination and we know it takes 2025 to win it .
She has included Florida and Michigan this statement should have been mentioned by the media.
Someone said it ’s not over untill the lady in the pant suit says it’s over I say it’s not over untill the Superdelegates decide to endorse Obama they are the ones who have the last word.
The republicans want Hilliary to win because she is an easy prey, They are afraid of Obama.
To prove what I am saying John Mccain caled her to Congratulate Hilliary,He didn’t call Obama.
Obama called Hilliary to congratulate her and she wouldn’t answer the phone.
John Mccain is too old to be the President he will need a younger person to be his Vice President.
Hilliary know she won’t be Obama Vice President as a matter of fact she don’t want it she want to be number one and if she was to be Vice President Bill will be in the Package.
It will be chaos in The White House.
GO OBAMA 08

Does John McCain actually believe that Hagee’s “apology” toward Catholics has redeemed the mad? What about the other comments, such as Katrina. McCain is in trouble.

McCain and the Republicans wish to define Obama and the Democrats as tax and spenders. That is going to be difficult because McCain himself pointed out the Bush is the only President in history to start a war, and not raise taxes to pay for it. McCain is in trouble.

Republicans have lost 3 special elections recently, which they should have won handily. The candidates tried to make Rev. Wright an issue, and the strategy failed. Republicans are in trouble.

How can Camp McCain dismiss one DCI lobbyist from their campaign, and not know that the CEO is working for the campaign, too? McCain and Republicans are in trouble.
