Spare Votes?
[Read the article: Spare votes?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I am always amazed at the Teflon exterior Obama has. He has lied about PAC money, oil money and special interest. He gives stump speeches about his opponent (Senator Clinton) and MAGIC! He knocks the common sense people began with and reduces then to a cult like daze.
I hope the people of PA will stick with their original sense of the candidate who can best serve them. Hillary Clinton. The Clinton campaign began with a double digit lead and it has eroded in large part due to the money Obama has and uses to outspend her 3-1. This has happened before and Hillary Clinton manages to pull out a win.
Recent polling now shows Senator Clinton to be the candidate who can beat John McCain in the general election. This is why these delegates (pledged) ans super delegates are now beginning to notice. I can only hope PA voters and the remaining states yet to hold primaries will see this as an opportunity to vote for the right person, and that of course is Hillary Clinton. I feel compelled to write editorials in the major news papers in PA. and let voters lift the fog of Obama and see what the original consensus was.

"She's not as bad as you think"
[Read the article: "She's not as bad as you think"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I do not believe there are "undecided voters". If a voter at this point is undecided, perhaps they should stay home. Some men cannot reconcile a woman can be intelligent, powerful and capable. Those men out there (and you know who you are) should update your thinking and recognize these are great qualities. I suspect the insecure male who dislike Hillary are likely to have a wife or girlfriend who are subservients. This is a condition known as "The Napoleon Syndrome".
Hillary Clinton has been the subject of much criticism and Obama has not. This double standard has shed a dark light over the most qualified of the three candidates. I was very disappointed listening to Obama whine about the questions asked during the recent ABC debate. He is slick and NEVER gives a straight answer. Questions about his refusal to wear the American flag pin is suspect. No answer given. He was asked about his "mentor" the Rev. Jeremiah Wright and denied ever hearing his anti-American rhetoric. Obama also lied when he said he disassociated himself from Wright, when in fact during his race speech he said he could no more disown Wright then he could disown his white grandmother. Why does the Teflon man get away with everything Hillary is criticized for? Obama has taken PAC money and oil money and has ads running denying both. Is race the delicate balance? If your a woman gender should not be an excuse, if your a black man, race IS an excuse.
The questions in recent debate are serious questions I still want answers to and until Obama answers them I will continue to distrust him. Hillary Clinton is the right choice. Obama is not ready. Obama is as bad as I think. Hillary, I have NEVER doubted.

Will Obama' debate stumble hurt him?
[Read the article: Will Obama's debate stumble hurt him?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I think it has hurt him. The recent polls show Clinton dead even nationally. Obama skirts the questions and never drives it home. He has a credibility problem. He stumbled through serious questions and provides no answers. When asked about why he refuses to wear the American Flag pin on his lapel he danced around the question never answering it. I urge anyone who doubts his to go to ABCnews.com and read the transcripts. Te question asked about Jeremiah Wright was not answered. Obama lied when he said during the debate he has disassociated himself from Rev. Wright which contradicts his race speech when he said he could no more dis-own Rev. Wright then he could his white grandmother.
The American people are not stupid, we have good memories and a subject so serious is a problem for Obama It goes to judgment and he lacks good judgement as do the Superdelegates who endorse him because they see the movement not the man.
Michelle Obama recently whispered "we need t have some white people behind Barack" and no mention from the media. Imagine Hillary saying we need black people behind me. She would never live it down.
Obama failed the test of armor. He unfortunately has none. The debate has delivered a scary truth about the man who has spent a great deal of time skirting issues and this past debate has delivered us a man who will not be able to tolerate the right from character assassinations, while Hillary Clinton has the armor and a debate between Clinton an McCain would show how tough Hillary is. A debate with McCain and Obama will lead to more stumbling. Obama has not been vetted, but he has gotten away with way too much while Hillary Clinton has not. She is criticized for the same things Obama does. Double standard? You better believe it!!!
