Yep

"When Clinton made the comment about how she and McCain were ready to lead and Obama was not. "

This was party treason. I have NEVER in my life heard a candidate from one party (except Joe Lieberman, that sanctimonious piece of shit) praise someone in the other party during an election and run down their own guy. Nauseating. Disgusting. Unbelievable. Uncontionable. Intolerable.

@jedlmnn

"Do you really believe that the right wing won't be able to figure out that McCain has more experience than Obama?"

Gee, you must think that we are idiots or something. OF COURSE, the repukeliscum will use that tactic. But now McCain can say "even other Democrats don't think you're ready." It's just a more supported argument.

In comparison to McCain, neither Hillary nor Barack have experience. In today's world, that's a TREMENDOUS problem for McCAIN, because experienced wingnutnaziwacks have TOTALLY screwed the pooch in this administration.

Wright is wrong

"The Rev. Wright thing is a big deal and even if Obama can make his supporters forget about it, Hillary's supporters are not about to nor will McCain's."

Only for brain-dead morons, jack. The rest of us want to hear about policy.

The Clinton wacks are doing the GOP dirty work. Why don't you Clinton bozos get another hobby? Or better yet, get Hillary to tell us who has paid her off with big money by revealing her taxers. Why won't Hillary tell us about her taxes? Are there more cattle futures investments there?

Dems will not lose NJ

In the last 10 years, there have been election after election in NJ. For some reason, Dems poll low in NJ but do well in elections. The current gov was tied in the polls but won by 10 pts. That's the usual pattern in NJ: Polls show as 10 pts less.

So, no way do dems lose NJ. There have been no Repukeliscum elected in NJ for about 30 years. It's ridiculous to threaten that idea.

In addition, a certain nominee always does a little better than a n uncertain one. In addition, since Hillary and her repulsive followers are doing their best to damage Obama, he polls lower. Once she accepts the inevitable, things will do better for Barack.

You win Texas if you

get more delegates.

Obama won Texas. He will have more delegates.

That's really what's going on with Hillary. She continues to change the rules as she goes.

Serial exaggeration is Hillary's stock in trade

Her "experience" is mostly just made up. She has 7 years in the Senate, most of which she has been running for POTUS. Other than that, it's all bullshit.

Clinton liars

"This is sad! What Hillary has done in this election is tried to win, just like Senator Obama."

Hillary has been singularily divisive and dismissive of Obama. Cite me ONE example where Obama says a nice thing about McCain and a nasty one about Hillary. Fact is, the flaws are on Hillary's side here. Her scorched-earth campaign has FAR outstepped the bounds of decent primary behavior.

If she campaigned in a reasonable manner, many of us would be less annoyed. But her campaign has not been fair, balanced or good for the Democratic Party.

Texas

"t’s bad enough that super-delegates will be selecting our nominee, it’s worse when people claim a 3% loss is a victory because people got to vote twice, and their second vote counted for more."

Clinton supporters are the BIGGEST whiners in the western hemisphere. Obama's people figured out the ins and outs of various contests, and set things up to win. That's a good thing. Clinton, on the other hand, ignored all the rules, and has tried to win by whining.

Obama has shown a rare command of the machinery of the primary process. Plus, he is not broke like Hillary.

Clinton supporters, stop whining, for the love of god!! Stop lying, you sons of the serpent. Be honest democrats instead of bad republicans, just for a little while!!!

@eurydice

"And Obama has been some kind of ... angel?"

What a truly stupid letter.

I am not writing to venerate Obama. I like him. He's a good politician. He runs a good ground campaign.

But stupid ignorant comments like yours are not helpful. No one "venerates" him, bozo.

I reiterate my comment. Give me one example where Obama praised McCain and dumped on Hillary. Fact is, it has not happened. But Hillary has done it REPEATEDLY. It is not a one-sided problem. It's mostly or all the fault of Hillary and her swinish brain-dead followers. I have gotten so tired of the Clinton bullcrap that I am holding my nose all the time. The problems are 90 % Hillary - 10 % obama. That's not an opinion, that's a fact.

@doc

"And what was the final result of those wonderful caucuses? The state party gave up just a few days ago, and admitted they couldn't do better than 41%. Isn't that right?

I'll take normal and fair democracy, thanks all the same."

Yet another Clinton supporter who seems to be unable to understand that the rules were there, and that the supporters had to play with the rules that existed, rather than whining about them.

Clinton supporters are great about whining when she did not win. They whine about MI and FL, although the rules were clear, and violated by the states with impunity. She has lost in many caucuses because her supporters do not know the rules.

Win fair, win inside the rules, and understand the rules. And then emulate Senator Obama and graciously congratulate his opponent when she wins fairly.

Meanwhile, please, no more whining. It makes you Clinton supporters look like 3rd graders.

Wow

"Should the Obama campaign be chastised as racist for using the term " tarring"? I know the Clinton campaign would be raked over the coals for the use of the same word."

Can you be this ignorant of history?
