The ultimate irony to Hillary & her Second-wave Feminist friends' scorched earth, poison the well, "destroy the party if we don't win" strategy:
McCain will appoint the next Supreme Court justice and overturn Roe v Wade once and for all.
That would be truly ironic if these older women themselves overturned Roe.

Who among you thinks that VP Cheney is ready?

What they mean to say is that the dream ticket is Bill and Hillary, stupid!

Wolfson will be helping Hillary teach the threashold class from now until Denver. Obama is a quick learner.

I wonder how the Clintons will feel after McCain walks away with the election???

Dream Ticket? A vote for the Clintons is a vote for the Clintons. The Clintons don't share power with anyone. How stupid do the Clintons think we are? On the other hand, having just got a boost for her fading candidacy, maybe she can wend her way back to a solid second place finish again with her irritating patronizing ("OK, "matronizing") behavior.

he has more vore if you toss out fla and michigan.there are 13 states needed to win in nov and its almost all winner take all. if oyu win by 1 vote you get the ec votes. how many of the needed states has obama won ,oh yeah 2 georgia and illinois.with his rhetoric he will lose fla,he will probaly lose calif too as the latino votes for mccain. what does he bring to the vote the blacks,wait they vote democrat anyways. the fact is he loses more votes than he brings.by the way only ga of the top 13 has a large black population.

i'll say it again in a general election obama will lose.just like dukakis,mcgoveren.he is a liberal.he is a throwback to the old democrat party that has lost time and time again.till clinton went to the middle.

Hillarys little bag of Tricks is Shrinking. The only thing left for her to pull out of that bag is !!!! George Bush.

Obama touts his vote against invading Iraq as a measure of good judgment, but we'll never know what his true motivation was.

Why do AnninCA and uglybetty get to say anything and flood this thread while 95% of my posts go into a black hole?

Hillary's actions show that she is not a team player. She's promoting McCain over Obama.

Why should Obama join her team? If anything, she should join his team, but she's sacrificed that right, IMO.

Big deal.

Why should Barack take the 2nd position when is and has been in 1st the entire campaign?

Why should Barack join her ticket when she threw him under the Republican bus by promoting McCain over him?

Hillary is not a team player.

Hillary has betrayed not only Obama but the Democratic Party.

BARAK'S WORDS SHOWS HE IS NOT, NOT A TEAM PLAYER

Chosing Hilary as his VP is going to HURT Obama. I hope he does NOT allow himself to be forced into doing so.

Ok let's all take a breather here and look at this a little objectively:

Hillary was the 'shoe-in' candidate last year, BUT she could'nt connect to the average American. I watched some debates where she was repeatedly referring to Bill's 'accomplishment's in office. She was rightly criticized for that because that is coat-tailing and disingenous. It just didn't work at all to win over anyone but affirm Clinton loyalists.The country is in much worse shape than it was in 1992 and people are looking for drastic CHANGE NOW!

Obama touched a nerve with people. He was able to connect on many levels. His detailed plans on how to change the status quo is resonating. His hopeful, inspiring message is giveing people what they have lost: hope. It's not a pipe dream at all. At a time, when we are facing a foreign policy disaster, mortgage crisis, health care crisis, economy in trouble, the one thing that can really generate SUCCESS in turning the disaster around that Bush created is HOPE! How are you going to get people to roll up their sleeves, pressure congress and support a president who wants to push through legislation without support of the people?

It's very easy: look what Bush did. He was able to push through all sorts of policies because of massive support by his voters. It was so strong, that even Dems caved ( that deserves a different discussion). However, IF we get a democrat president, he/she will NEED huge popular support to get anything done. Unfortunately, Hillary Clinton is not only a polarizing figure, but also DESPISED by the republican base who will pressure their representatives to work against ANYTHING she proposes regardless what it is.

That brings us to the GE. We all know that McCain doesn't have enthusiastic support of the republican voters, in fact it's clear their numbers in primaries have been down significantly. He can't energize them or motivate them., BUT if he runs against Clinton, SHE will be the one thing that will motivate them to come out to vote in HUGE numbers. The scenario is different if Obama is the dem nominee: most will just sit it out.

Bottom line: if the dems really want to WIN and get an opportunity by putting a president into office who will REVERSE the damage done by Bush, they need to nominate Obama. As bad as times are, the country cannot afford to go another 4 years of stalemate. People are dying in Iraq, in America and are losing homes,jobs, etc. Politics is not about personalities, its about creating a society and world that reflects our values.

I can understand how people can be loyal to the Clintons and that's admirable. It's just that she's too polarizing and frankly, with her attacks on Obama recently, she has turned alot of democrats and new democrat voters against her, which translates into NO support of her if she was president. We simply cannot afford that to happen.

We do need a democrat president, but we don't need one who simply can't get anything done because of a personality and history that only generates contempt and hate in the populace.

Good grief. Obama's "attack" employs yet another borrowed speech: "hoodwinked and bamboozled" is a
direct lift from one of Louis Farahkan's typical riffs. Obama flies close to the sun in evoking the controversial minister. Is this code to that community that he has not disavowed them after all? I can already see the juxtapositon of speeches on MSNBC - no, wait - what am I thinking? On CNN? No -wait - maybe on the only serious news outlet worth tuning in: Jon Stewart where are you?

So you can get some prep-time, Obama. Ya haven't spent a lot of time in D.C. politics, they'll hijack your presidency.

When does the story of her betraying the Dem Party by promoting McCain over Obama gain traction?

It's just astounding that neither the media nor the party are on this.

Sen. Obama is sure sensitive! She simply echoed what many in the DLC have said.
