Inside US poll battle as fight turns dirty for Democrats
HILLARY Clinton has been branded a "monster" by one of Barack Obama's top advisers, as the gloves come off in the race to win the Democrat nomination.
In an unguarded moment during an interview with The Scotsman, Samantha Power, his key foreign policy aide, let slip the camp's true feelings about the former First Lady.
Her comments came as Mr Obama, whose defeats in Texas and Ohio on Tuesday were largely put down to a series of negative attacks on him, vowed to turn up the heat on Mrs Clinton over her claims to be the more experienced candidate.
The fragile truce was blown apart as the pressure for the nomination intensified, with Mrs Clinton winning in Texas and Ohio.
Ms Power told The Scotsman Mrs Clinton was stopping at nothing to try to seize the lead from Mr Obama.
"We f***** up in Ohio," she admitted. "In Ohio, they are obsessed and Hillary is going to town on it, because she knows Ohio's the only place they can win.
"She is a monster, too – that is off the record – she is stooping to anything," Ms Power said, hastily trying to withdraw her remark.
"Interestingly, the people in her innermost circle seem to not mind her; I think they really love her."
But she added: "There is this middle circle – they are really on the warpath. But the truth is she has proved herself really willing to stoop."
In recent TV appearances Mrs Clinton had looked desperate and on the back foot.
Ms Power agreed, and said: "Here, it looks like desperation. I hope it looks like desperation there too.
"You just look at her and think: ergh. But if you are poor and she is telling you some story about how Obama is going to take your job away, maybe it will be more effective. The amount of deceit she has put forward is really unattractive."
Ms Power's comments reveal how the inexperienced Obama campaign is coming under increasing pressure from a battle-hardened Clinton camp that saw Ohio as its last chance to save its candidate.
Earlier in the week, the press and the Clinton camp seized on remarks by Austan Goolsbee, Ms Power's colleague, on the North America Free Trade Agreement (Nafta). His comments are widely believed to have cost the Mr Obama the Ohio Democratic presidential primary.
Mr Goolsbee, Mr Obama's top economic policy adviser, had told Canadian officials that a public pledge to force a renegotiation of Nafta with tougher labour and environmental rules was "more about political positioning".
But the Clinton camp said Mr Obama could tell the public one thing and then tell a foreign government something else behind closed doors.
Ms Power knew the consequences of the gaffe made by her friend. She said: "Now Hillary is using it to say that Obama's not serious about Nafta. Oh God, it's so sad."
Mr Obama yesterday blamed fierce attacks by Mrs Clinton for his defeats in this week's big primaries, and quickly made good on a promise to sharpen his criticism of her in what promises to become an all-out brawl in the race for the White House.
The Illinois senator took the offensive against Mrs Clinton, targeting her claims that she is more experienced in handling foreign policy. "Was she negotiating treaties? Was she handling crises? The answer is no," he said. "She made a series of arguments on why she should be a superior candidate. I think it's important to examine that argument."
In recent days, the former First Lady has argued Mr Obama was getting a free ride with the media, questioned his sincerity in opposing Nafta and darkly hinted he was not ready to be commander in chief in a crisis.
Mrs Clinton, asked about her national security qualifications, ticked off a series of events in which she had played a role, including peace talks in Northern Ireland, the Kosovo refugee crisis and standing up for women's rights in China. She also cited her work on the Senate armed services committee.
Obama aides took the offensive yesterday, holding a conference call to ask why Clinton had not released her tax returns. Her campaign responded with a statement e-mailed to reporters while they were on the Obama call that said the Clintons' returns since they left the White House would be made public around 15 April.
"There's no doubt that Senator Clinton went very negative over the last week," Mr Obama said. He said the Clinton campaign's multiple attacks "had some impact" on the election results, "particularly in the context where many of you in the press corps had been persuaded that you had been too hard on her and too soft on me".
Ms Power insisted Mr Obama was well equipped to deal with foreign policy. She said his perceived willingness to befriend dictators and rogue leaders was him simply trying a different approach, as the current foreign policy has not worked.
She said: "Hillary Clinton always portrays his position on meeting with dictators as naive. She is almost implying what he is saying is he wants to meet with dictators without preparations. It is not like he would sit down with Ahmadinejad and say, 'Hey Ahmadinejad, I have been meaning to talk to you. How ’bout those New York Giants?'
"If we have had the same policy for decades and it is not working, why are we sticking to the same policy?
"Can we at least try to re-jig the equation here? Principles should not be checked at the door when one is meeting with dictators. But seeking to at least have dialogue would give the United States more kudos in the non-western world, allowing others to see that perhaps it was not all America's fault.
"There is something tougher about being in the room with Ahmadinejad and making your position known rather than lobbing your verbal grenades from 5,000 miles away, which is what the Bush administration has done."
She added: "It is important that negotiations don't become an end in itself. It is the Chamberlain problem."
Ms Power was in the UK to promote her book on Sergio Vieira de Mello, the extraordinary UN representative who was blown up in Baghdad.
PUBLISH AND BE DAMNED
WHEN is off the record actually off the record? When the rules are established in advance.
Journalists are always looking for knowledge and want the information they receive to be available for publication.
But occasionally an interviewer will accept an exchange is "off the record" and that the conversation is not attributable. Remarks can be used as background to inform a journalist's article.
If a conversation is to be off the record, that agreement is usually thrashed out before the interview begins. Sometimes, public figures say something and then attempt to retract it by insisting it was "off the record" after the event.
But by then it is too late, particularly if it is in the public interest that the story be published.
In this instance, Samantha Power was promoting her book and it was established in advance that the interview was on the record.
A WOMAN OF POWER
SAMANTHA Power is the embodiment of the American immigrant dream.
Born in Dublin in 1970, she moved to the United States with her mother aged nine.
After being educated in state schools in Pittsburgh and Georgia, she gained entry to the prestigious Yale University, where she studied history. The self-depre
cating Ms Power said this changed her life and opened many doors.
She worked as freelance journalist in Bosnia, after teaching herself the language in Croatia. Her only other journalism experience prior to that was covering the Yale women's volleyball team.
After graduating from Harvard Law School, she became an executive director and founder of the Carr Centre for Human Rights Policy at Harvard.
The 37-year-old already has one Pulitzer Prize behind her, for her book A Problem from Hell: America and the Age of Genocide and she is in the UK and Ireland to plug her new book, Chasing the Flame: Sergio Vieira de Mello and the Fight to Save the World.
Ms Power was head-hunted by Barack Obama to become his foreign-policy adviser in 2005 and combines this role with her job as a Time magazine columnist and professor of practice of global leadership and public policy at Harvard.
CARL YOU ARE A MONSTER ALSO. LOOK INTHE MIRROR!
Re: didi – get your facts straight. this wasn't during the pledge, it was during the star spangled banner. OBAMA LEADS THE PLEDGE ON THE SENATE FLOOR. it's so sad how many people just take whatever they hear as truth without researching.

www.hillaryclinton.com MAKE A DIFFERENCE !
Re: WF – You are right, so many Americans will swallow anything INCLUDING the fake empty promises that Barack Obama is making. He is no different than any of the politicians. His true colors will come out and all the sheep following him will soon learn the errors of their ways! I will vote for anyone but him, even The Republicans. I live in Illinois and have way too many years of his broken promises.
tellit like it is i fell asleep on your comment stop talking idiot your a ugly monstertoo. We do not need another monster running our country, besides she will scare the kids. Its bad enough the children of america has to see the monsters under there bed,they dont want her in office. stay underneath our kids beds, and in their closet hillary. OBAMA! GO OBAMA! HILLARY A MAN
Re: Alex –
Apparently you didn't watch the news because the Canadians now say that those words came from the Hillary Campaign. My question is how can you blame Obama for this? Blame the idiot advisor. Obama has more of a moral high ground than Clinton but ofcourse because she's a woman everyone is going to attack him when he hits back…DOUBLE STANDARD.
As a Cuban-American I thought you would be offened by all the racial slurs that are attached with the comments. But I see more and more. I guess you are not offended!!!!!!
What has Hilary done that is so speacial but sit next to her husband and wave for the cameras. Yeah she was on the commitee for armed forces but we ended up in a war and hundreds killed while she was on it. She is a closet Republican and will take this country futher down a path that leads the working american to despair. I think it is great that we have really good canidates. But the negative tone that she is pushing is all too familiar.
STOP WITH THIS BORING ASSS SHIT PEREZ.
I FROM THE SUBURBS LIKE YOU WHORE! SOMEONE SEEMS VERY ANGRY.GO HILLARY YOU ARE STUPID. IT DOSENT MATTER WERE IM FROM IM JUST LIKE YOU AND STILL SUPPORT OBAMA NOW WHAT BITCH . YOU NEED TO GO BACK TO SLEEP TO. MATTER OF FACT GO TAKE A SHOWER AND COOL OFF.OBAMA FOR LIFE. WHERE ARE YOU FROM! IDIOT
Re: LATINO WANT A BLACK PRESIDENT –
UHHHH..NO THEY DONT…MORON
Do you see the racist comments your are propagating? How can you allow the N* word in your comments. Only in the American media does a white person who lost 11 straight elections still get the coverage. If Obama had done the same, he would have definitely been written off. So what he he's lost three primaries. Technically he came up 4 delegates short of what Hillary had! On top of that, he's still leading in the popular vote. It's interesting that Hillary has such a strong Latino following especially since she's wants to place much stricter immigration policies than Obama does and immigration is considered the #1 issue among Latinos. Obama's policies on immigration are more in line with what Latinos want than Hillary's. But hey, many Latinos are just racist and would rather vote for someone White, who's policies don't align with those of their own, than vote for a Black man!
Yeah, please elect Hillary! She has shown that she is AS BAD AS KARL ROVE and co.!!!
WE NEED more negative politics!! Our country isn't in the shitter enough already - let's elect some more nasty, shit-throwing people into the White House!
She IS a monster - AGREEING TO THE RULES IN FLA AND MICH. and then - when she took the advantage - RENEGING ON THAT?? Karl Rove must be JEALOUS of that move!!!
Yes, please let's elect another slimy, lying politician. PLEASE DO NOT BELIEVE THAT BECAUSE SHE IS A WOMAN, SHE IS NOT CAPABLE OF PLAYING AS DIRTY AS GWB!!!! THAT would be sexism!
People really need to educate themselves on who they support or don't support and why. Obama must be one of the only Muslim's out there who goes to CHURCH regularly - and even if the WAS Muslim, who cares? Freedom is what this country was founded on and that includes religion….it's the same God of all religions who is talked about in the constitution. Is Hillary a Monster? No! Obviously not - she is a great candidate. But, remember this is a person on Obama's staff (who let her personal opinion slip), not he who said it. Seriously people….get your head on straight.
Hillary is a Monster and she just endorsed McCain 5 times this week over Obama.
Is Wolfson going to get fired for calling Obama Ken Starr for asking for her tax returns to be released?
HILLARY CLINTON HAS NOT RELEASED A TAX RETURN SINCE 2000.
THE CLINTONS WILL NOT RELEASE THE WHITE HOUSE PAPERS
THE CLINTONS WILL NOT RELEASE BILL'S LIBRARY DONOR LIST
WHAT ARE THEY HIDING???
Obama's a CHRISTIAN!!!
Obama's a CHRISTIAN!!!
Obama's a CHRISTIAN!!!
Obama's a CHRISTIAN!!!
Obama's a CHRISTIAN!!!
Obama's a CHRISTIAN!!!
JEN TO ANSWER YOUR QYESTION ABOUT WHAT HAS HILLARY DONE WHAT SHE DID WAS OPEN HER BIG MOUTH AND WE CANSEE RIGHT THROUGH HER AND HER FAKE ASS TEARS. KEEP CRYING HILLARY IT WONT NOT HELPING. WE DO NOT NEED A CRY BABY TO RUN AMERICA. THIS IS FOR JEN AND HER HILLARY SUPPORTERS.
Hillary IS A MONSTER!!!!!!!!!! My god people, you really are like sheep if you believe anything that comes out of that witches mouth.
Dickipedia is a wiki of dicks, mayhaps you will enjoy a selection from the entry on Barack Obama: "Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. (born August 4, 1961) is a senator, presidential candidate, celebrity politician (or, “celebritician”), and a dick. He has also written the bestselling Dreams of My Father and Audacity of Hope, exactly the kind of books people “casually” leave lying open on their coffee tables right before a cocktail party.
It is important to note that Obama is not so much a dick by virtue of who he is, but rather by what he has chosen to involve himself in (e.g. presidential politics) and the resulting crowd it forces him to deal with (e.g. Joe Biden).
Viewed by many as an “alternative” candidate to “politics as usual,” Obama’s message of hope has coalesced supporters, captivated the electorate, and forced the excruciating protraction of an already lengthy lead-up to what by all accounts stands to be the most unendurable presidential election in U.S. history. " The rest is here: http://dickipedia.org/dick.php?title=Barack_Obama
JERUSALEM - Thousands gathered Friday outside a bullet-scarred Jewish seminary in Jerusalem to mourn eight students killed by a Palestinian gunman. Hamas militants in Gaza claimed responsibility for the attack.
Re: Shannon – Well Shannon, I am sure that you are no Rhodes Scholar; however, Barack Obama is a Christian. His Pastor Dr. Jeremiah Wright is a also Christian with theological education and credentials to support it. The idea that he is Mulsim is insane.
Re: Kim – We may or may not win…that will be determined. What is determined is the fact that Barack Obama is a Christian. I have personally heard his pastor Dr. Jeremiah Wright speak and he most certainly is a well educated Christian. To say he is Muslim is absurd. Have your opinions about him but let them be based on fact.
why don't u report how she was the one who went to go assure Canada abt NAFTA and let Barack take the heat for it. you n Hillary are both cunts, thats why gay marriage will never be legal bitch!
I cannot believe that I live in a country so uneducated, back country, inarticulate idiots. This board has proved once and for all why we deserve the reputation as complete idiots.
Re: cynthia – Dr. Jeremiah Wright is not a racist at all. Have you ever heard him speak or know anything about him? If you did, you would know that he is a man of God who looks to see the best in all people. By the way Muslim people are not bad and while Farrakahn has said absolutely horrible things about Jewish people which I do not support, as Dr. Wright there are things that Farrakahn has done that have been positive. I say that to say to you, just because Dr. Wright has said some supportive things about Farrakahn does not mean that he is a racist or a Muslim. Let's be honest and real about our conversation of people who are playing on the side lines of this important race for the Presidency.
If Barack wins I will vote for Mccain. It is Hillary's turn…step aside! BTW, I have never voted republican.
TO ROCKY WE ALL WATCH THE NEW RIGHT ALONE WITH YOUR PARENTS.YOUR PARENTS SUPPORT OBAMA AND SO DO WE JOIN US! OBAMA FOR LIFE . I WATCH THE NEW HAHA!
Hillary didn't mind the free ride when she was the "inevitable" candidate and everyone loved her. When the Clintons start losing, they get frantic and nasty and start looking for ways to cheat (like counting delegates in Michigan and Florida). She is making me remember why I was so happy to see the Clintons go. I started out really supporting Hillary. Now I hope Obama wins. I'm fed up with her sense of entitlement and childishness. She's hurting the party.
Re: Well.. – Thank-you for the unnecessary History lesson. I'm perfectly aware of the historical conflict between the two religions. My point is, being Muslim in itself wouldn't necessarliy keep someone from being an effective American President, and since our Constitution grants us freedom of religion, essentially any American aught to be able to run for President without their religion being used against them.
Most of you people are completely clueless who are uneducated and misinformed on the topics you discuss. What a sad thing when people like yourselves can vote. Get smart. Learn your political party's platform, investigate what candidates actually stand for and stop the name calling. What are you…in grade school?
Samantha Power, an unpaid foreign policy adviser and Harvard professor, announced her resignation in a statement provided by the Obama campaign in which she expressed "deep regret."
"Last Monday, I made inexcusable remarks that are at marked variance from my oft-stated admiration for Senator Clinton and from the spirit, tenor, and purpose of the Obama campaign," she said. "And I extend my deepest apologies to Senator Clinton, Senator Obama and the remarkable team I have worked with over these long 14 months."
Obombit has a big goat ranch and sevices them regularily.Hillary has been blowin big Bill since Lewinski left him.
She's more than a monster she's taken over $8.000.000.00 from the health care industry and the pill pushers. She's given 10 mil of her own money to her grab for power, Yea right she's gona give you universal Health care. Not!!
She won't piss off her big money supporters.
Face it Hillary's a fake ass power hungry BITCH!!

Re: Shannon –
My god you are so stupid Shannon. Go fuck yourself with your brother in your trailer park you dumb bitch!!! GO OBAMA!!!
I am a black woman. However, I am smart enough to know that Hillary has what it takes to get this country back on track. Wake up Amerrica, just because Barack is cool does not mean he is qualified to hold the most powerful position in the world.
Go Hillary. "Monster" would be entirely appropriate in the sense of monster Everest being the tallest mountain, monster Grand Canyon being the greatest canyon, Monster Trucks being the largest performing trucks. Monster might apply to B. Hussein Obama in that his head is strangely triangle or lightbulb -shaped, his ears clown-like, like Bud Abbott of Abbott & Costello, not to mention his absurdly monstrous hands—frighteing when animated in one of his long (yawn) wordy hack up-beat formulaic speeches.
Aids shouldn't be allowed to speak. Only the candidates should be allowed to speak.
And shit, 10 more months of this crap. Going to go bury my head in the sand now.
Monstrous,…would also in a single word…sum up Michelle Obama's ass.
I'm scared of Hillary!
Re: Shannon –
You ignorant bitch
Once you take off that old white lady suit there is a reptile.
Boo fucking hoo Ms Samatha Power this is politics! Don't act like your above it when you do the exact same thing you MORON! HILLARY 08
Re: Shannon – Who cares that nig. g. g obama, is gonna win anyway whether your sorry a$$ votes for him or not!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hahaha! Hill's not a monster, but she IS a force to be reckoned with! She's a obviously a stronger candidate for president and commander in chief. Let's face it, they're all full of shit, but in the end, I'd feel much better knowing she's in charge.
Hilary is an ass! I would not vote for that woman, she's too sneaky. She's also copy Obama slogan ,yes we can, she, yes we will. Be orinigal Hil.
How convienient that you left out that she is a VOLUNTEER on the campaign, and has sing RESIGNED. Perez, you are a scumbag.

Its a free choice whom you vote for but what makes you think that
any of the 3 candidates will do anything in office other than talk.
There is no way they can bridge the gap.No way. Nothing will happen nothing
at all. Hillary with 35 yrs in politics the sam for McCain they are big corporation
themselves the only hope I have is Obama he is not hated by anyone and maybe just maybe he can make it happen. That is my hope.
Good luck with your choice.
she won't get my VOTE!!!! Hiliary Clinton can kiss where the sun don't shine with her fake as$.
Why are all of you Obama supporters so vile and nasty? You need to check yourself! The men are insecure, narrow-minded, sexist weaklings, who fear a powerful woman. The women might be worse. You are vulgar, gutter mouths who appear not to have an ounce of morals, values, or class. Try something different, act like a lady!
Wow, if this is what Obama is attracting, he certainly isn't very inspiring. It's not about the quantity, it's about the quality, something that is definitely in short supply among all of you!

Obama has nothing to offer up as far as experience. He can say a bunch of pretty words and preach about Hope all day long but he hasn't the foggiest idea of how to lead a country. If Obama gets the nod I'm for sure voting for McCain. He's a Republican but he's got a hell of a lot more knowledge about how to lead than Obama does, not to mention the fact that Obama is known to hate gays.That's a well known fact that some are overlooking. Even McCain isn't as homophobe as Obama is. At least I can respect McCain and know he truly loves this country. Obama refuses to wear the flag on his lapel, refuses to put his hand over his heart when hearing the national anthem and let's not forget his wife's dumbass remarks about never being proud of her country. No way to misinterpret what she said. We make our mistakes but we're still the county everyone wants to live in and we're still the country that lends a helping hand to the less fortunate when other's will not. I'm proud to be an American and I'll vote for McCain if Hillary isn't on the ticket. I'm saying a big hell no to Obama.
Re: Shannon – I mean how retarded are you????? The NIGGA doesn't need your vote because he has already won. Are Muslim's evil or something? You actually by into that bullshit? Well if you think so, do some research on your religion and see how evil they are. He was sworn in with a bible. Has been a Christian for most of his life. At least they are not boning little kids in the ass and the last time I checked Christians killed more than Muslims. Respect is what's lacked with you and people like you that are sheep and can not think for themselves. And we wonder why most of the world hates the U.S., lack of fucking respect. You will not be happy until were wiped off the map. It can easily be done. We're not that big and bad because if we were we would confront the true enemies of our country instead of being punk asses and invading people who haven't even did shit to us. The last time I checked there were more muslims in the world. Farrakhan's Support For Obama? Hugely Controversial. Hagee's Backing Of McCain? No Problem. Read up on Pastor John Hagee because mainstream media will not report on this. And by the way, suck a d__ and prosper.
Sound to me like the true colors of the Obama team are surfacing. They cannot accept defeat after the high they had with a 10 state winning streak. It's typical, they blame their losses on the other canidate being a "monster". Accept the defeat gracefully and move on. Now that this person has been "let go", it is apparent that the Obama campaign is weeding out those who are spilling the true secret feelings of that campaign.
Trust me, it doesn't hurt her feelings. You'd have to HAVE feelings to get them hurt. She is a MONSTER! A robotic MONSTER bent on destroying us all!
Please stop her now!
This back and forth verbal smackdown is typical and par for the course.
It will get even more heated when the Dem candidate is pitted against John McCain.
Believe me - all the bickering and snide remarks will be forgiven if Clinton and Obama share the ticket and it's entirely possible.
Like another poster said - "10 more months of this".
Yippy
So Obama's campaign makes one negative comment and it winds up on Perez Hilton, but where are the posts for all of the negative things Clinton has said about Obama? Her camp has repeatedly been caught issuing somewhat racists remarks about Obama, as well as putting out materials that play on America's fears and stereotypes. Personally, I think a senior aide making one comment against Clinton seems appropriate given all of the negative attacks she has made against Obama. One of the major things I don't like about Hillary is her willingness to take things to a negative level, and how much she embraces the political spin machine. I want a new type of politician. Go Obama!
Re: Shannon –
1. you are a racist
2. even if he were muslim, which he isn't (nice fact checking, you're an idiot as well) what does it matter? not all muslim people are terrorists. if you did any kind of research or paid any attention to the news you would see that it is a small group of people who are terrorists and most muslim people denounce their actions.
3. you are exactly what is wrong with this great country.

VOTE YOUR CONSCIENCE! DON'T BE INFLUENCED BY JERK OFFS!
hey kerri, you complain about Hillary stealing Obama's "yes we can" slogan, but have you forgotten that Obama took a speech given by Gov. Deval Patrick last month? Amazing how narrow minded folks get when they are out on a witch hunt.
#406 - Jett's Mom says – Obama has paid those superdelegates almost a million dollars to vote for him. His health care cost the individual twice as much, and still penalizes people when they get sick and then sign up late. His argument is a ruse!! BOTH of them want the insurance companies at the table, Edwards is the only one who didn't! If you think Obama isn't for big business. Just look at his voting record at VoteSmart and see all those 'Not Voting' votes….those are all big business. He didn't have spine enough to vote no on those subjects because he is trying to hide it from voters when he supports those items in his Admin. Just look at the End Global Poverty tax….tied to our GDP. That is a bribe to UN leader and despots around the world. We all know the money never makes it to the people who need it. So, he is bribing them to exploit their people even more ruthlessly to get the raise in funds. .7% of our GDP. That is disgusting and it's a gift to big business around the world. Wake Up!

Where did Hillary get that cool 5 million that she fronted to her campaign to keep the lights on? We need to see those tax returns as well as an accounting of the foreign contributors to the Clinton foundation and library. That 5 million didn't come from residuals on "It Takes a Village."
I care about honesty so i support Obama, Samantha Powers just resigned that says much about how Obama is true to his word to take to the high road what about the MONARCHY, OOPS the clintons? they will say or do anything to win…thats a MONSTER to me.
Go Obama
Monster, No. Lieing fucking lesbo whore, Yes.
Will someone please buy Obama a sandwich! He is slowly starting to fade away, just like his so called experience!
My how the mighty have fallen!
Hmm, I wonder how proud Michelle is of America now!
This is completely awful that such a bright woman was forced to resign over some off-the-cuff stupid comments while the Clinton campaign gets away with prepared statements comparing Obama to Ken Starr and 'Illinois Nazi' comparisons. Absolutely shameful.
Re: Kim – A 10 small state run….that vote for Republicans in the general election….no less.
Hillary has won all the large states required to win the general, states that actually vote Democratic.
But don't tell any Obama supporters of such facts….
Oh, come on! The woman was actually quoted as saying that her comment was "OFF THE RECORD." There's no journalistic integrity in Scotland.
im not shure that hillary should pe president, i am all for her political veiws and her oppinions on the war. but honestly, the entire country knows that we are headed into an economic depression, and i realy would prefer that it not be blamed by the fact that it was the first time a woman was in office, and also because of our current issues on the war in iraq, there is no getting around that the men in those country would be threatened by a powerfull woman holding a political office, i worry that they may even refuse to meet with her simple on the fact that she is a woman.
serriously yo, i want the first time a chica gets into the office to be
rememberd as a time as thriving prosperity for our country.
go hilary, but maybe hold off a term babycakes. we all want to see you do well
vajayjays for clinton!
Hill is a ruthless monster who is more of a man than a woman. I don't understand why people think she will be the first "woman" president. She is a murderer and a disgrace to America for all the dirty politics she has played and all the cover ups she has been a part of. While I am not crazy about Obama either, I think that he is more genuine than Hill.
Do none of you ignorant pieces of shit even read the news? Or do you just listen to whatever trash is spun to you? It makes me sick that you are American voters. Muslim? Fuck you. Do your homework. You racist, horrid pieces of shit. You guys are perfect examples of why there should be literacy and current event testing before you can vote.
Re: kerri – Psst….Obama stole 'Yes we can' from Ceasar Chavez.
Stole MLKs tone….stole JFKs words….and stole Ceasar Chavez' battle cry….and you want Hillary to be original! LOL
Obama success is Pavlov's Dog version of politics. Americans have heard MLK and JKF so much all he has to do is copy it and they drool support!!
And you think he is original….LOL
You want us to get into the 35 yrs of Billary experience of word wide bribe??
Here is a bit of a taste enjoyl
Hillary should resign from the race an account of running on pseudo-slander and innuendo. She was asked "Is Obama a Muslim" her reply "no…to the best of my knowledge" really? Or the Canadian NAFTA memo regarding the Obama campaign… TURNS OUT that it was CLINTON'S people talking to the Canadian government! This begs to ask, Hillary, What about whitewater? travel-gate? the law firm? YOUR money from Rezco and the discriminating law firm? NAFTA? Hu? Implied Endorsement from Bush? Your Tax returns? ever changing Stance on Iraq? Your kitchen sink approach? Hypocrisy you can believe it.
Enjoyed the taste there is more to come don't worry.

Wow, Slick Willey, by your comment and your inability to spell correctly, I'm assuming you didn't graduate at the top of your class! You just came across as being really ignorant!
You are another classic example of the type of people Obama attracts!
Well, she is a monster.

John McCain appeared onstage in Texas with Pastor John Hagee, an influential activist in the Christian Zionist movement. Hagee's comments about world affairs can make Farrakhan seem pedestrian at times: He eagerly awaits the Armageddon, considers the Catholic Church to be the Anti-Christ, and has said that Jews brought their own persecution upon themselves.
Hagee has referred to the Catholic Church as, "The Great Whore," an "apostate church," the "anti-Christ," and a "false cult system." Is Tim Russert going to repeat any of that to McCain.
Haven't seen white people this scared since 9/11!!!!!!!
SHE IS A MONSTER! Why is it so bad to tell the truth! Look into her past! How many of her business partners are in jail or DEAD!? Wake up people she is a bad person. If she keeps her bullshit up you can plan on McCain for the next 4 years!

Re: PISSED OFF –
He's no more UNQUALIFIED than Bush was AND STILL, is!
Barack Obama is running with class and dignity. This is what the country needs at this time. No more politics as usual.
Obama is NOT muslim. If any of you people would do your research instead of talking out your asses you would know that!
Re: Meredith –
Nicely said!!!
Re: Hey #434.World wide bribe – Please….where did I say Hillary was better? You complain about all of that stuff and then support Obama!? What a fool! He couldn't even buy his children their own house without the money from a corrupt influence peddler and you are trying to pretend that doesn't stink to high hell!!? Obama is corrupt just like the rest of them. Please, why don't you have a legitimate argument to the world wide bribe? Because you know it is true. It is sad you want to support exploiting people around the world and just because it "End Global Poverty" and Obama wrote it, it must be good. Just like the Patriot Act is good for the Constitution. Oh and Obama the community organizer and lawyer would know that anything that limits the rights of Americans hit the poor folks first. But that 'fighter' dragged his feet on signing a pledge to the Constitution, nevermind his Oath of Office. Yuck!
There is so much wrong with Obama, that anyone who knows half of that stuff about Hillary and not anything about Obama should be ashamed of themselves. Or just admit they were the tool that voted Dubya in twice. Those clowns never looked at all the war mongers he surrounded himself with before the 2000 election. I bet you don't even know who Zbig is….sigh!
Re: Your Momma – There are a lot of us "white people" that are voting for Barack! We love him! Don't let negative jerks tear us apart.
Re: Barack Obama is running with class and dignity – Al Sharpton ran a cleaner campaign in 2004. And he is a professional race baiter…
As we read the news do our DD its more then obvious Obama will get our support. Go Obama.
Obama all the way
Seriously? They don't have anything more to spend time on than this? If she can't handle a little name calling from Barack, she will never make in the general election when the nasty republicans get their chance. Get a life!
You can reason/argue/call me names it don't matter one bit as our 40+ white
professional Family will vote Sen.Barrack regardless of blogs/celebrities as a matter facts the more nasty this whole thing gets the more we will donate
to Obama. Go Obama and Yes,we can.
