Hillary demonstrated tonight that she is NOT a team player and that she considers herself more important than the democratic party winning in November. She had the chance to revel in the glory of running an outstanding race and supporting the party nominee. She chose not too. I sincerely hope he does not consider her as a VP candidate now or I will have to seriously consider whether I want to continue to support him. I did not support Obama to begin with but became a supporter in recent weeks, after our primary. If it were held today, Hillary would get one less vote in SC and Obama would get one more.

I will not vote for O’bama if Hillary Clinto drops out. My gut feeling tells me “dont trust him” and I always go with my gut feeling, it hasnt let me down so far.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Reader…

I say let Mrs. Clinton have her day in the sun, and let Mr. Clinton have his sunset…and let their daughter be proud of her mother.

I flipped my coin months ago, however, and Mr. Obama came up heads for the democrat nomination. So, I flipped it again, and Mr. Obama came up heads for the inauguration in January.

We’ll see what happens from there.

America is a great place for social experiments…perhaps the greatest place in the world for them in fact.

The majority of voting Americans experimented with an old white bonehead guy for the past 8 years which got them exactly nowhere except up a creek without a paddle. Why not experiment with a young black (or is he white?) brainy guy for 4 years who might at least remember to bring along the paddle?

I say give “change that you can count on” a chance. The only way left to go is UP anyway (which translates to DOWN in the case of oil & gasoline prices…and in the case of American casualties in SW Asia…and in the number of foreclosures…and in the top marginal income tax rate for the middle class…and in the war and oil profits being reaped by the privileged class…and I’m out of breath here as usual).

As Lord Elrond once pronounced, “Nothing is certain.” It’s a good thing his daughter persuaded him to be a bit more proactive. Otherwise, Lord Aragorn would have looked pretty stupid standing in front of a hundred thousand orcs and others from the dark side…without “The Sword Reforged”…”The Flame of the West” in his hand.

I think that at least a few folks might agree with me that it is high time that we Americans got our nation reforged…and relit our flame. Is the Clinton “dynasty” the one to lead the way. I don’t think so.

Hillary is doing the right thing. She is fighting on!Obama CANNOT declare victory as of anytime soon because he has not reached 2025 delegates. For people telling Hillary to bow out of the race would be stealing the nomination from her as well. She’s fighting, and Obama is shaking from it. The issue people should be thinking about is that with Hillary and Obama going head to head for the nomination it’s very good for the democratic party. It’s actually strengthening the party, like Howard Dean has said recently. He makes complete sense, and the biggest issue is that Florida and Michigan are states that need their delegates seated. If Howard Dean does not seat the delegates and Obama wins the nomination then more than likely he will lose the white house because Florida and Michigan will flip to the republican side. Everything has to be counted for this nomination to work and succeed. People just have to be patient!

Hillary 08!

DEMS..UNITE!!!

Well, as we all know, election season is once again upon us. Our choices are, as always, a great source of controversy and strife among the American people. This is understandable as not every candidate fits our ideals of the perfect President.

However, I’ve noticed some very disturbing trends among voters and, most glaringly, the Democrats. Frankly, it’s appalling. I can’t get through a blog nor a chat room without seeing Democrats at each other’s throats, each bashing the views and private lives of one another’s pick as the Dem candidate.

You know what, people?? Knock it off. I’m not particularly wild about either Hillary nor Obama either, to be honest.. but all have a common goal here. That goal is to do everything we can to keep the GOP out of the White House.

Haven’t the GOP done enough damage already? For the past 7 years, we’ve been subjected to two recessions, the invasion of a soveriegn country with no violent designs on us, over 935 lies from this administration ABOUT IRAQ ALONE, and the blatant trampling of our civil rights such as our privacy with the warrantless surveillance and with free speech with arrests of peacful protestors and even people whose only “crime” was merely wearing an anti-war or anti-Bush T-shirt.

Both John McCain and Mike Huckabee have stated that they plan on continuining our occupation of Iraq. Senator McCain has stated that he not only wants us to stay in Iraq for 100 years, but is already planning on attacking Iran, as he so playfully reiterated in his rousing rendition of the Beach Boys song “Barbara Ann” titled “Bomb Bomb Iran.”

Obama and Hillary’s ideas are really not so different. They have similiar ideas on health care, Iraq, national security in general, etc. There are subtle nuances that make their plans slightly different but when it comes down to it, one is really just as good as the other.

It’s bothersome that people are saying things like “Hillary is a warmonger”… or “Obama is a Muslim sympathizer.” These same lines that Rightwingers were using against the two of them just a few short months ago and the Dems were scolding them for, the Dems are now using. I, personally, never chose a particular party with which to label myself. I consider myself an Independent even though I never formally even declared myself as such… and this is why. Both sides seem to go off the deep end when elections come up and I am so disappointed that Dems have allowed themselved to stoop to the level of “The Righties.”

I don’t like any party spreading lies and innuendo about any candidate, whether he or she be Republican or Democrat. It’s juvenile and ignorant. I don’t approve of McCain’s policies but I’m not going to perpetuate the rumor that he committed treason while in the service. I have no proof that he did. On the same token, I won’t perpetuate the rumor that Barack Obama is a Muslim terrorist sympathizer. We have more than ample evidence that he is not.

Let’s think about that particular rumor for a moment. George W. Bush has been more in the pocket of Muslim terrorist sympathizers than anyone else. Despite the fact that the Saudis not only have an appalling track record on human rights but they’re also funding terrorists and helping to fund the insurgency which is killing our soldiers… Bush calls them “friend.” Not only that but he’s also given them weapons which are in turn being used against our troops in Iraq.

Same with Pakistan who has openly harbored Al Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden for a couple of decades. Then there’s Uzbekistan, a nation with a record of committing unspeakable atrocities against its citizens…again, Bush calls them “friend.”

So to say anything about Obama is not only stupid but incredibly hypocritical if you’re Bush supporter. If you’re a Dem, it’s insincere and ridiculous. We need to pull together in these elections this year and vote for whomever the Dem nominee turns out to be, even if we have to hold out collective noses to do it. I know I will. If a GOP president gets in again, I would hate to look back and know that my missing vote helped to get him in.

So come on… remember that common goal we have to do something good for this country and keep the GOP out.

VOTE FOR THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE!!!

Not now, wait for some more months. Let her her spend some more money. It will help many people.

Has everyone decided about Florida and Michigan? Are two of the most decisive States in the Union going to be left out of this process? Is the DNC prepared to anger Florida to the point of loosing this State to John McCain in November? If Florida is left out, can Obama go in there and campaign in the Fall. Can he effectively say to the Floridians:”Look guys, we didn’t need you in the primaries, but I need you now. You didn’t count in the primaries but you do count in the general election.”
Remember, that if Florida comes into play, Hillary is ahead in delegates and the popular vote. Then what happens. There are six more primaries..Kentucky, West Virginia,Oregon,Montana, S. Dakota and Puerto Rico. Hillary is going to win four of those. Then she will continue to the convention and there she will pull out all the stops and then let’s see what happens.
DON’T TAKE THIS LADY FOR GRANTED……
