I live in fucking America and let me tell you, Obama may win Texas, but Hillary's going to win Ohio. What the essentially says is that the Dem. race will go on even further. In the end, Obama may win. But I wouldn't be too surprised if Hillary manages to win. you are an idiot | ||

"D Day is Tuesday. We have to have a positive campaign after Tuesday," he told CBS. "Whoever has the most delegates after Tuesday, a clear lead, should be in my judgment the nominee." | ||

That's fairly interesting. Unless something truly bizarre happens Obama will have far more delegates. So is that basically an announcement that he will endorse Obama in 2 days? | ||

In 2000 people voted for Gore because they thought Bush was stupid(literally). In 2004 people voted for Kerry becuase they thought Bush was a horrible president. I think people will be voting for Obama becuase they beleieve in Obama - that will make a large differance in the turn out. | ||

Aye, the democratic tactic of having people 'vote for the lesser evil' didn't work so well in the past couple elections. Problem is, McCain is a very likeable guy unlike Bush, so they have their work cut out for 'em. | ||

Like Obama or not the Democratic party have to see he is the only chance they have to take back the White House. | ||

Note when the media unleashes a full blitz of it, on the eve of voting day... This is like a repeat of New Hampshire. Seriously, I saw -zero- coverage on TV media, but yesterday they all go hardcore at it. Likewise for the Rezko trial, though not as much. Rezko is a very old story, and they knew his trial date would be soon--nothing that they focused intensely on yesterday was new, or anything besides a barrage of negative press. | ||

I hope he gets a clear win in Texas. Like Obama or not the Democratic party have to see he is the only chance they have to take back the White House. I agree. Too many people straight up hate Hillary. Everyone loves Obama. He';s even got bitches fainting at his speeches! P.I.M.P | ||

It's bullshit that they sit on a story like that for a week until it becomes really important, completely ignore that the canadian embassy said they never discussed it, and start calling obama "defensive" I don't know if its just to get more voters, but I cant forget how stupid the American media is. "Although Obama was certainly grilled about Louis Farrakhan, who he doesn't associate with, while Hillary was able to skate on her endorsement from Ann Coulter. And compare the coverage of Tony Rezko with the lack of interest the press has shown in that Dubai-related investment deal that stands to net Bill -- and therefore Hillary -- a cool $20 million." | ||

I wanna see this stay close all the way to the convention so it becomes an issue of super delegates or a legal battle over Florida's delegates. That would be entertaining. That wouldn't be so good for the country (or the markets). Especially with hillary running, who knows what she's capable of. | ||

Pretty much the worst thing that you can accuse her of (and be justified) is that she's a political opportunist who will go to great lengths to get elected. Yes, this is true. But it's equally true of a lot of other people, none of whom are the target of even a small fraction of the same ire. Now, I'm not saying that anyone needs to vote for her (I'm voting for Obama today, but I think they are both strong candidates), but I just think people need to calm down with the bashing. ok i'm done, going to go check out the thread where people are laughing at someone calling Hillary a "cunt" on wikipedia.... | ||
