Well, damn, invade Iran right away so that we can keep them “over there” just like in Iraq.

‘As in her other primary victories, Clinton benefited from an enormous gender gap. While they ran just about even among men – with Obama holding an 18-point edge among white men – exit polls showed Clinton with a huge 59 percent to 34 percent advantage with women.’

I just read this:
‘Obama proved once again his popularity among African-Americans, taking almost 4 out of 5 black votes in California. But Clinton more than compensated by winning among Latinos by a 2-to-1 margin and among Asian-Americans by a 3-to-1 margin.’

A strong majority of blacks have chosen to disagree with you. Does that make you a better judge for what type of leader they should choose?

“then refuses to show up and meet the mayor of San Francisco because he doesn’t want identified with Gay Marriage.”

Prove it.

If you actually watch the clip, it seems to me, that he was simply making an historical observation that Reagan embodied the change that America was ready for at the time. He never once said that the direction that Reagan took the country was a good one.

Just to clarify… That was bothering me for a while, too.

You are a weird guy. Take your own ass down the line.

don’t make me have to post that Comment by JMOHR again keltoi….you jut take your troublemaking ass on down the line…….

You’re right, it is the stupidest thing a human being ever said. Except it wasn’t me who said it. Your good buddy RHF called him a bigot in #136…he is pretty damn stupid.

no one gives a big rats ass what a phony republicna boot licking fool cares……

yeah fool….come here and say Obama is a racist…..that’s got to be the stupidist thing a human ever said…..

you have a hunch……..well move away from senator craig silly girl. What a fool. You actually think someone cares what you think….that you have a hunch…..that obama could do some crazy things……wtf does that even mean.

did you have a hunch that bush was going to destroy America….why didn’t ya tell someone..

I don’t think hillary is as bad as you have been led to believe….you honestly believe then, by your own statment that Hillary would have invaded and occupied Iraq……

I have said before it is possible that Obama, once in office, will astonish the nation with how radical he really is. I think he would have the political skill and capital to do some crazy things. It is only a hunch, he may not be playing possum and it is possible he is as status quo as he basically appears, but particularly in the foreign policy arena he might break the mold. But I suspect that is largely hope talking. He is the only potential iconoclast in the trio; McCain has a tiny chance of being one too, I guess, but he is awfully long in the tooth for it. Hillary is the embodiment of status quo.

But please don’t come back whining about President McCain’s new war of the week.

Although I disagree with much of your post (171), it is sincere and thoughtful. My primaries were last night, I threw the switch for Obama – although I should have just voted for Edwards since my state went to Hillary anyway. The time for debate between Hillary and Obama is over for me.

My only hope is that Obama wins and he finds some backbone and forms his own thoughts when he gets into office rather than going with the flow as I perceive him to have been doing as a freshman senator. He talks a good “one liner” game, lets hope he really can get change done.

Um, I’m not a right wing stooge. Selling Insurance Policies isn’t healthcare. Guaranteeing healthcare for all, paid for with a progressive tax IS healthcare. Why are Hillary and Barack more concerned with helping Insurance companies sell policies?? Eliminate the insurance companies, eliminate the profit motive. Healthcare is a right for every human being. Will you be there to help people battle as every claim they make is disputed by the for profit companies? Are you pimping for them or something>

All the troops must come home as quickly as possible. Leaving 40,000 or 50,000 troops there for 2, 3 or 4 years is not acceptable to earn my vote. This is what I believe Hillary will do and Barack too.

You dance with them that brought you. This country is not a parliamentary system, and you can’t easily rewrite the constitution. Stop whining and realize that even thought it’s slow for you to get what you want, the same is true for the extremist xtians!

You don’t need to rewrite the constitution to have 3 or more parties. We need access to the media to get our message out. Where do Hillary and Barack stand on breaking up media monopolies? Who will they appoint to head the FCC? Why is Hillary taking Rupert Murdoch’s money?

Actually that’s EXACTLY the whine that the Republicans used to justify their losses in 2006 – that they didn’t listen to the base. It’s rare that simple, don’t be so naive!

Not being naive. Just willing to look at the big picture. What it will take to afftect permanent change.

guess it was 1994 to be exact…..

Comment by jpoke42

kid, it’s called a supermajority and it’s fillibuster proof……we had it for 40 years before 1990

I wouldn’t bet every nickle you are worth on her failing….

as far as hillary in office galvanizing the repubs……they are as galvanized as they can be…..it doesn’t matter who we get they will still be galvanized the same….why do you fear them, their day is over…they have destroyed themselves…..we now have to pick up the pieces and put things back together……….you going to help or not?

oil company money, etc…..yep, it takes money to win and election…..go ahead and name me one that ever got elected without this dark side……ok then tell me how it can change in the immediate future……what, nothing. I didn’t think so……

obviously you didn’t read some of the posts above….I know you don’t like hillary but you cannot compare her to george bush.

I never had to worry about unitary presidential powers under clinton…I never had to worry about unilateral premtive war with clinton…..I never had to worry about our economy tanking completely because of corruption under clinton , etc.

they are not the same.
