James Carville
[Read the article: Rum, Romanism and James Carville]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I am along time admirer of James Carville. He is honest and fair. He is a Hillary Clinton supporter and like others, we know Richardson owes his career to President Clinton. I too agree with Carville and I said the same thing he said: Richardson is Judas. He was speaking in metaphors as it happened over Easter. That is why I thought the same. There is a belief that loyalty is an honorable asset to one's character, so when I learned Richardson, after telling other high profile people he would support Senator Clinton and then chose Obama I thought there was "let's make a deal". I have little or no trust in Obama and would put nothing past him. He had called consistently asking Richardson to endorse him and I feel Richardson had little impact on his own run for the presidency so his endorsement is like a John Kerry, a man who lost to BUSH! It comes down to loyalty. It does matter and anyone who is offended by Carville's comments, don't know the man. Carville knows what loyalty is and therefore he expects no less from others. Good for him!

Barack Obama, working-class hero?
[Read the article: Barack Obama, working-class hero?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Happy there was a question mark. It begs the question, who does the privileged Obama think he's kidding? He knows Hillary's core supporters are the working-class and he's probably been watching her speeches to see why they gravitate to her and migrate away from him. The reason is: Obama has lured the educated and the wealthy. It suggests to me Obama thinks working-class folks are stupid. We're not, we're smart enough to see through you and your rhetoric. You call Hillary "a Washington Insider" while all your supporters are "Washington Insiders" from Kerry, Kennedy and Tom Daschle to name a few. Obama loves Washington Insiders. They know their way around and Obama, aren't you a Washington Insider? Your claim to fame is your two years in the US Senate. The rest of the time you have been campaigning. You have wealthy friends. Obama, you have not a clue about working class America. Nice try!

50 Cent explains "Quote of The day"
[Read the article: Quote of the day]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Malcolm X is what changes a mind in a mansion from my home state of CT. When a person makes a commitment, he or she stands by that. Your word is worthless when loyalty is forgotten.
I trust the mansion in CT you speak of is that of Ned La Mont, the man who failed in dethrowning Joe Lieberman. Obama was also seen in a post office in CT talking to a group of men. I no longer trust Mr. Obama since he was caught in several lies. Go to factcheck.org and see the most recent.
Once the Rev. Jeremiah Wright's anti-American speeches and preaches surfaced, Obama in my book will always have a cloud of suspicion over him as he should. 50Cent doesn't buy 1 cent so go to Obama. Hillary is seeing new support from Obama defectors. The news today, explained how Rev. Wright has a One million dollar home with indoor swimming pool. I guess for him, hate paid off!

The Obama Difference
[Read the article: The Obama difference]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]It must be easy to be comfortable though Obama did not start that way. Now he has the support of the Media who clearly has made him untouchable and he hounds endorsements from super-delegates.
The Illinois Senator can sit back and enjoy himself while the media bias Clinton has to work hard for every vote.
Obama with ease took a bigot mentor "Rev. Wright" out of the news, and all he had to do was make a speech about race. Works every time. If one should justifiably hold his feet to the fire, he only has to prepare another speech about race in America. Forget gender bias, it's alive and well according to the media. I don't buy into the ease notion with a gutter ball. If that was a prerequisite for the presidency, he would win hands down, but, IT'S NOT! Don't be fooled by Teflon again.

Why did Clinton wait to release her tax returns?
[Read the article: Why did Clinton wait to release her tax return?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Because Hillary is not going to have Obama dictate to her what and when she should provide tax returns so he and his hateful team can droole over them hoping for some tax scandal.
Sorry, Obama, her taxes show she pays the same tax rate as middle-class America pays, roughly 33% of income. She also donated ten million dollars to charities. Not to worry, the Clintons knew this day would come and would never leave one cent unaccounted for. This must really disappoint the Obama people. So sad!!

Reports of Penn's ouster may be greatly exaggerated
[Read the article: Reports of Penn's ouster may be greatly exaggerated]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I'm not surprised this would become another anti-Hillary story. As all news outlets have reported, Mark Penn was fired which is true, however, there was no secret he would be a pollster. Senator Clinton was furious with Penn, but let Obama and McCain have lobbyists and NO NEWS.
So I say enough is enough!!!

Cashing in on the Clinton campaign
[Read the article: Cashing in on the Clinton campaign]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I am always amused how all negative stories about campaigns are that of Hillary Clinton. We take Obama's word for what he pays his chair and co-chair and his campaign manager. I doubt Tom Daschle would leave his job for a small fee. That needs to be scrutinized to the same degree the Clinton campaign has.
The double standard and negative stories about Hillary Clinton have cast doubt on her campaign and has diminished her chances to get the nomination. I hope the good people of PA come out for her, and Puerto rico. Rich in delegates Latinos are Hillary's core voters. Puerto rico has 55 delegates which I pray are hers as a reward for having to deal with everything Obama gets away with. I hope we can see equal respect for the female candidate and start holding the black candidate accountable. Why have we avoided holding Obama's feet to the fire? Is it race? We have all but fried the female, and bias is unacceptable. Hillary can pay whatever she wishes to whomever she wishes.
