No to Obama

Obama just slapped Hillary in the face again. He wants to make it clear that in no way does he want her help only her voters and raise money for him. He chose 3 am to spit in her and Bills face. I will never vote for Obama because of his and his wife's radical ways. He thinks he will show the voters he doesn't need Hillary for anything and she should raise money for him because it is her and Bills duty to take care of him. He now thinks he owns them AND THEIR VOTERS, this just shows he is crazy. Obama and his wife plan on a socialistic Nation where he tells the people what to do and say. He wants to redistribute the wealth to his friends. He does not beleive in free enterprise. What we earn should be ours not the neighbors who doesn't work. Even Joe Biden said Obama was not qualified to be president and he thought John McCain was and would be proud to run as VP for McCain. That will be hard to overcome because he will be caught if he tries to make up things for Obama. I hope Hillary and Bill take control of the convention. Hillary had real votes and Obama had caucuses. No comparison. Also we need to drill now, and say no to all tax increases including capital gains and windfall taxes. That will only kill the economy and drive small bussines out or cut jobs and expansion. Bill and Hillary need to walk away and get ready for 2012. McCain and Hillary would make a great ticket. I hope McCain thinks about a place in his cabinet for Hillary that would show he really can reach across the isle.

Hillary not chosen

Last night, when I heard that Biden had been chosen for V.P. over Hillary, I felt like I had been punched in the stomach.

Hillary Clinton

Sorry. For those who think that Obama would lose because of

Hillary is plain silly.

If Obama is strong the Hillary factor should not matter.

Besides if Americans are sensible enough they would not vote a Republican President this time around. Give the democrats a chance to rule and turn around the economy and do something about the misguided war in Iraq.

If Obama loses it could be that McCain and Republicans will be

successful at doing exactly what they did to Kerry.

So do not blame Hillary.

Actually if Obama wins he should find the best job for Hillary within his administration. She is intelligent and hard working.

And she is the one ready to roll up her sleeves and start working from day 1

I hope we have a broken convention because Obama should have picked Clinton over Biden

Dear Phil get a life.

convention

i am a staunch hillary supporter. i will be watching the convention the second and roll call night only why? because i want to hear her speak and i want to see my state ohio show that we supported her and not him. i am not sure i will support mccain but i am very sure i will not support obama. this is very sad as i am a loyal democrat but joe biden said it best obaba is 100 percent not ready to lead this great country of ours gob bless america!!!!!!!

I didn't know!

Sorry...I did not realize this was a Clinton-site. I am onthe wrong page! Sorry!!!!

It is not All about Hillary!

Obama/Biden 08! What a blessed sound! We are so looking forward to Tuesday /Wednesday, so that we will hear from the Clintons for the last time! We are so tired of them, and Bonnie, This is NOT about the Clintons! The majority of people will be: The Obama suppoters that have cast their vote and financial support for OUR candidate...remember us, we are the ones that WON! We followed the rules, we organized quite well and we WON! Now we are ready to move on with or without the Clintons. If their supporters (the poor working-class white voters) will vote for McCain over a Democrat then let them go! We will no longer be held hostage by a small group of racist being encouraged by the Clintons. Obama/Biden 08!

"The Last 100 Days"

The mainstream media has frankly put the security of our great country at risk with an Obama coronation media like CNN & MSNBC is the only way Obama managed to steal the Dem nom. It’s extremely concerning that so many Americans could care less about who their candidate really is?? simply amazing and frankly scarey.

PLEASE WATCH AND SHARE WITH EVERYONE ASAP

OBAMA BLOWS IT WITH VP PICK!

OBAMA BLOWS IT WITH VP PICK!

“I think he can be ready, but right now, I don't think he is," Biden told ABC News debate moderator George Stephanopoulos about an Obama Presidency. "The presidency is not something that lends itself to on the job training."

Selecting Joe Biden who voted for the Iraq war, won his job in the Senate over 35 years ago when Obama was only 11, detracts Obama ticket's agent of change, yes and he voted for the IRAQ war, an old guy according to Obama camp during the primaries. His selection removes all attacks Obama camp using against McCain…Bad bad decision…Maybe doing what Uncle Ted told him to do, by letting inexperienced Caroline Kennedy make the VP decision wasn’t such a good idea.

Obama will loose…

Biden dropped out of the 2008 race after a poor finish, but not before he talked dismissively of joining someone else's ticket. "I am not running for vice president," he said in a Fox interview. "I would not accept it if anyone offered it to me. The fact of the matter is I'd rather stay as chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee than be vice president." It was his second try for the White House. The first ended badly in 1988 when he was caught lifting lines from a speech by British Labor Party leader Neil Kinnock. Just like Obama.

VP pick Joe Biden’s known as (“The gaffe machine”) wild mouth managed to run him afoul with Indians, 7-Eleven clerks and African-Americans.

"You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I'm not joking," he told C-SPAN. "I mean you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean “he enthused. "I mean, that's a storybook man, not a fairy tale??

This ticket has already begun to will draw deep criticism from Democratic voters who support Obama for his stand against the war in Iraq. Now that’s appears not too important to Obama? This guy is a total flip flopping liar. These voters who will never forgive Biden for approving the war anymore than they would forgive President Bush or former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld nor Obama for playing his faithful supporters as fools. It shows Obama have no Plan or direction.

Lastly, Biden DOES NOT put on the table any state on the table to help with electoral vote? With Biden comes the very real risk that his loose lips around reporters will render all sorts of new gaffes and scandals in the coming months that will swamp the Obama campaign's message. McCain camp is jumping up and down for this gift from Obama.
