Wonder when the MSM will discover they are backing a sure loser in Obama. This guy has some issues with the truth. Maybe when he "clears" Hillary out of the way the media can start taking a closer look at this inexperience, unqualified "transcender" and hopefully silence the Halleluia Chorus.

Clinton's point was that RFK was campaigning in the primary in June. Therefore, no one should be trying to bully her out of the primary campaign in May.

Only a moron or a fox viewer (but I repeat myself) would not understand this.

Sheesh. Hillary Clinton has bigger cojones than any man in the race. Get over it.

Will you children quit your squabbling - Please? There are only two candidates left in the race who will provide an appropriate new direction for our country. I will vote for whichever one of them gets the nomination.

Currently that is looking more and more like B.O. Liking one of them more does not provide us with the obligation to hate the other - or the right to slander the other. These are Republican strategies - Republican tactics. So just cut it out. As for the rest of us, we would do well to consider that many of these negative comments are coming from Republicans dressed in Democratic letters doing what Republicans always do: sabotaging Democrats by stealth, deception and the willingness to go to any lengths to win elections - while operating totally without moral restraints and ethical considerations.

In spite of all Clinton’s difficulties, she is still the stronger candidate versus McCain in numerous opinion polls. This suggests the power of anti-Obama feelings, some of it likely the white racial frame again, among significant segments of white voters. It also suggests the very strong desire of many (white) women to see a woman win the presidency. Also, Newsweek just released another poll showing serious problems for Senator Obama (versus McCain) among white voters–yet more evidence for racist issues in this election.

Does Senator Obama have any chance to win versus McCain if white women voters in the Democratic Party remain angry, as many are, over the openly sexist treatment of Senator Clinton by the mass media and some of Senator Obama’s supporters? The lack of honest and extensive public discussions of both US racism and sexism is one of the saddest realities of this electoral season.

Both Hillary and Obama come laden with lots of baggage.
Obama, of course, has the race problem that I don't believe is insurmountable this time. Hillary's baggage is greater and more complicated. In adddition to the sex problm she somehow arouses a vitriolic hatred against her among some groups who don't seem to feel as strongly against him as they do against her.

My beef with Hillary is different. I feel that she owes the American people for the way she screwed up health care reform in '93... and thus delayed real reform by years. Her recent utterances show that she hasn't learned anything since then for her new "plan" still involves including the insurance companies who are the major sources of the problem. That's why I can't vote for her. Of course, I couldn't vote for McCain either,

My slogan for the dems is IF YOU LIKE GEORGE BUSH--
YOU'LL LOVE JOHN McCAIN.

Yes, the "Why are you here Loser" question. Why are you on alternet? Obama's platform absorbed a good deal of what John Edwards and Kucinich were saying early in the primary when he was still running off Wall St money. Kucinich was there because the other Democratic candidates were out using campaign rhetoric directly opposite of their voting records. Hope and change don't run on "snark," just stale boring sports and wildlife metaphors. Hurry, you're gonna be late for your table waiting shift.
