Sigh...

This is a non-story. I agree with some other posters that Joan is better off writing a story about the factors behind the scenes driving these petty stories.

Ms. Walsh truly has missed some important topics pertaining to the campaign (although I give her credit for her opinion about how the long primary fight is GOOD for the democrats, even though I think it is delusional), such as Hillary's doublespeak about pledged delegates (they are JUST like supers, they can switch their votes!), the possible re-votes in MI and FL, the comments of Reid and Pelosi, etc.

Joan has every right to express her opinion but I do agree with others that her credibility is tanking fast, it's so blatantly biased it's close to laughable. I think she's capable of improving it, however, because I think she's smart enough.

Yes, there are some people, white Democrats even, who walk with their knuckles scraping the ground.

Geesh,

Admonishing PELOSI for suggesting something that is totally obvious?

I suppose Hillary is upset that Pelosi even opened her mouth. But wait, Hillary is talking out of both sides of her mouth. Hillary claims that supers can make their own informed choice and vote for whomever they want, and that's all Pelosi is doing, exercising her judgment. I don't see anything wrong with that because the primaries are not officially over.

Hillary might as well just strap some dynamite to her back and blow herself up. After screaming that the FL and MI voters are disenfranchised, she now stresses that pledged delegates can switch THEIR votes from Obama to her, to hell with the voters. Talk about hypocrisy!

She'll do whatever it takes to win! I wrote this weeks ago and got blasted for it but it turns out I was correct (unfortunately).

As Slate has pointed out, how can she encourage or imply that PLEDGED delegates aren't really committed to a particular candidate while screaming that voters in FL and MI are disenfranchised? How does this woman live with herself? She is patently offensive and dishonest and each day it becomes more and more disgusting, leaving me with a sick feeling that I MAY have to vote for this creep.

Yes, I'll write it again, she's a hag.

I've been criticized for this but this is how I feel (hag = an ugly, old woman, especially a vicious one). Clinton is ugly in this campaign because of the way she's conducting herself, sinking so low that I think she'll do anything. She obviously would prefer McCain in the White House to Obama so she could run again four years from now. She's selfish, self-centered, shrewd, ruthless, vicious, lying, deceitful, decrepid. I'm REALLY disappointed in her. I expected more; I NEVER expected this type of behavior.

As each day passes, it becomes more difficult for me to rally for her and vote for her should she win the nomination because I prefer her politics and positions to McCain. I hope this primary BS is over soon, so we have time to regroup, heal, and get down to business addressing why we are much better than Repugs.

This type of behavior has to stop. Someone needs to reign her in lest she do more damage to the Party than she's already inflicted. We need to win in November!

I thought she asked everyone to "Just say no."

Why on Earth is it important what some supporter says about another candidate? I don't get it. When I heard about Ferraro, I said to myself "What an idiot, I feel sorry for her, it must suck to be her because she's so stupid." Same thing for Wright. Why should I care about Carville, or McPeak, or Samantha Power? These people are NOT the candidates and there is absolutely no way Hillary or Barack can police everybody. It's gotten way out of hand! Why do the media endlessly play stupid people's comments? On the Matthews program the camera should have just cut away like he was Janet Jackson's breast at half-time. Problem solved.

I'm so glad I never watch TV...

This is WAY over the line! I don't think the Clintons deserved to be trashed this way by anybody in the media. I'm rooting for Obama, but voting for Hillary if she wins the nomination. We don't need our candidates trashed by the media.

RIGHT ON!!!! I'm with you 100% on that one. I like the idea of everyone getting equal money, equal air-time. If that were true this time around, then maybe neither Clinton nor Obama would have done so well. Each appeared certainly more centrist than some of the other candidates (Kucinich, Richardson, Edwards).
