I have a question for all the Democrats out there. An honest question, really.
Would you vote for or belong to a political party that cheats to win?
No, well if you vote Democratic this November, you are.
The Dems are the only party that writes a book of rules, agrees to those rules, signs oaths to those rules and then BAM! changes those very rules when it becomes evident they are losing.
Florida voters apparently love to cheat to win. Rules were in place for the Florida primary, warnings were issued in every media, if you vote in this primary you are violating party rules and your vote will not count. And what did they do, they voted anyway, then when they were hit with the promised penalty, they screamed foul.
Typical Dem double dealing, double standard. If we're winning we'll stick by the rules, if we're losing, we're gonna change them. And worse, the DNC actually allowed them to break the very rules they agreed to. They rewarded the Florida DNC and Florida voters for breaking the rules.
Would you do that with one of your children? Would you reward your child for bad behavior? Would you reward him/her for cheating? Of course not, but if you cast your vote for the Dems in Nov, that's pretty much what you're doing. Rewarding your party for cheating; for breaking the rules.
Right now, I am so disgusted with the Dems that I could just scream. I've never seen such double dealing cheating.
And did anyone get a load of that loudmouthed blond woman during the decision Saturday? Screeching like a fishwife that she would vote for McCain in the fall before she would vote Dem, after they "cheated HRC" Huh? I got big headlines lady, the DEMS cheated,period!
But, only the Dems would cut off their own noses to spite their own faces, right?

Noise is being made now, whispers really of BHO being quietly coerced into naming HRC as his running mate in the generals. If that truly be the case, then I want to go on record right now with this somewhat dire prediction.
I predict that less than two years into his Presidency, BHO will be dead. Now, will this death be an accident or an assassination? That is a bit unclear at this time, but it will come to be.
It really shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone when it happens. HRC and the worm WJC have no intentions of letting a black man take her preordained destiny away from her, and they certainly will never bow to the will of the people. It isn't in their best interest to do so.
Also, during her brief, one term tenure as President , HRC will finagle a bill that will enable WJC to once again become President of the United States and we will be under the crooked, criminal, selfish, irresponsible rule of the Clinton's for another twenty years.
BHO's only hope of surviving his term in office is to name ANYONE as his running mate BUT HRC. I truly believe his life will be forfeit if not.
On the other hand, all of this likely will never happen because the Democrats have successfully managed to destroy their party and any hope of re-taking the White House with this ridiculous in fighting, and since McCain will win in Nov. BHO is safe.
Just another reason to thank the Republicans, and another reason to vote for McCain in Nov. I for one do not want to be responsible for a man's death.

Is really an open book if people will just get their heads out of their collective a-- and do some research.
Most Dems really believe that 'golden years' BLEEP that the Clinton's and their supporters are pushing, but what is the real truth?
It's getting down to the wire now. This Dem race is getting so tedious, and so ridiculous. How about the Dems naming another, what was it, 76 new 'super delegates?
Guarantee more than two thirds of them have been hand picked by the Clinton's. They know their time  of reigning is nearly at an end, their supporters are deserting that sinking ship, so they need new targets to threaten into voting for her majesty.
Republicans are scorned and ridiculed for being too conservative, too narrow minded, but at least Republicans have the grace and dignity to let their constituents nominate them with their votes. They don't need a thousand  so called "super delegates" to circumvent the system and deny the Dem voters the right to choose.
I read an interesting article on the so called "Golden Years of Bill Clinton. Very interesting. All of his accomplishments can be directly attributed to the Republican Congress, and all of Bush Sr.'s foibles can likewise be attributed to the Democratic Congress he had to deal with.

I find it a bit questionable that HRC wasn't screaming for Penn's head, and stranger still that she 'didn't know' that her chief campaign stratigist was courting trade deals with Columbia.

Her staff says she was upset and that she was opposed to any trade agreement with Columbia. Personally, I think she was just upset that Penn's clandestined meetings with the Columbian governemnt were discovered.

There is no way her majesty didn't know what Penn was doing, and no way she wasn't fully on board with these meetings. Dollars to donuts,in hushed conversations with Penn re the Columbian deal,HRC told him to go ahead, but go carefully, because if it comes out she will be forced to deny any knowledge of the deals.

All this does is add to the believability factor of Clinton. PA voters, NC, Montana, KY, IN and Oregon need to sit up and take notice. Your jobs are definitely on the line if HRC gets in office.

I saw this morning where John McCain 'entertained' Condi Rice in a supposedly convivial meeting. One has to wonder if McCain is getting ready to deliver the old one-two punch to the Democrats!
What better choice for him to make for a running mate than Condi Rice. With just a single nod he will be able to effectively eliminate both Democratic contenders and nullify their history making claims; HRC as first woman president. Hey, you gotta learn to walk before you can run, Hill. So Condi Rice as Veep, puts her in the perfect position to taking that first wobbly step to the Presidency. Obama, the first black President. Ditto for Condi, but with one HUGE difference; this black woman will have what both of the pretenders to the throne lack, and protest they hold in abundance; she has the experience and the name recognition.
While McCain has denied that he has spoken to Condi about becoming his running mate, it looks to me like that statement may have been made with his tongue planted firmly in his cheek and a sly wink and a nod.

Every morning it's the same old thing. You wake up, stagger into the kitchen to grab a cup of coffee, flip on the GMA and there she is in all her questionable glory.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I am sick to death of having HRC's chubby-cheeked, smary smiled face shoved down my throat every morning.

While I completely enjoy watching the Dems implode, having to watch HRC's smug, self-entitled self spew lie after lie is grating on my last nerve.

And those Clinton supporters? Geez, get a grip y'all. The woman is a lying, conniving, win at any cost beotch, and you all are being labeled as low income, low intelligence bozos who can't even get out of your own way. Of course, if the shoe fits and in this case it certainly does. Hell, her campaign manager and others closest to her can't even do simple math. YOU CAN'T WIN, STUPID  GET OUT!!!

PA, come on, this woman, by her own claims is a big part of the reason a lot of you are jobless. Remember NAFTA? Why is that so forgettable to you all? So what, you all made so much money toiling in those steel mills that NAFTA managed to shut down that you can completely ignore that HRC and slick Willy are the reason you no longer have jobs? Remember, she's claiming to have been deeply involved in all the policy making during her husband's tenure in office? That's where her extensive "experience" comes in. So, how can you support someone who has cost you and the rest of the rust belt so much?

As a Republican I am actually happy that the Dems have taken the ,well folks like the PA Dems into their camp. I think to become a registered Republican you have to pass a basic commn sense test, and apparently the rust belt Dems couldn't pass it, so they signed up to be Democrats.

I'm also growing weary of Obama's 'take the high road' attitude. Barack, nice guys never finish first, especially if that nice guy is going up against the Clinton's. People who thwart those two usually fade into obscurity, tails tucked firmly between their legs, never to be seen or heard from again. If you don't want to become a member of that club, you better grow a pair and start calling her royal highass on her BLEEP.

In retrospect, I guess I can change the channel to something more entertaining like Sponge Bob. As long as her majesty and the pretender to the throne continue to spar, McCain sits back and enjoys the turmoil and the swelling ranks of Dems turned Republican.

President John McCain, has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?

Good question. And the answer; when it is wielded by HRC to shovel B.S. Her recent ‘misstatement on her harrowing trip to Bosnia is a prime example.  If anyone else had told such a bald-faced lie, they’d be called out by the Clinton Campaign and branded long and loudly as a liar, but her majesty merely ‘misspoke’.

Her claims that she made so many trips abroad to so many places that her memory of the exact events of any one trip ‘might’ be a bit unclear, is laughable at best.

Unclear my aunt Fanny, she lied and she got caught.

Those of us who are registered in the ‘elephant party’ are completely NOT surprised by her majesty’s lies. For us it is Clinton business as usual, but those in the ‘jackass party’ are either; a, defending their candidate’s “slipping memory”, or b, feverishly trying to spin it into a plus for the pretender to the throne.

I for one am just about over this whole ridiculous thing. Clinton and Obama are spinning their wheels, and the longer this nonsense continues, the deeper they dig the Democratic Party into the mud. Head Dems are trying to get Clinton to withdraw from the race, but with her overblown sense of entitlement, she is refusing, adamantly. Obama is hell bent and determined to take this nomination and Clinton is just as determined to steal it in any way she can.

As this comedy of errors continues into the spring and early summer, all the Democrats are doing is solidifying those Republicans who were having second thoughts about McCain. He may be a bit too liberal for the more conservative Republicans, but at least, even with his advanced age, his memory seems to be pretty much intact, and his brain apparently is fully engaged BEFORE his mouth goes in gear. Well, except for that little 'slip' about iran and al Queda, but hey we all have slips of the tongue, right?

Likewise, the Independents who were undecided are having their vision cleared almost daily.

The longer this ‘race’ continues, the choice of party logos becomes clearer. BLEEP indeed!

I’ll say one thing for the Democrats though, when the writer’s strike created a comedic void in television watching, they managed to step in and fill the void.

“And the Emmy for best comedy goes to…… The Democratic Party.

Thanks guys. We needed a good laugh.

If this ridiculous delegate debate doesn't prove HRC's total flip-flopability, I don't know what does.

When her campaign was dead certain she would, by virtue of her name alone, win the Democratic nomination she was more than willing to disenfranchise Florida and Michigan voters. Now that her 'entitlement' has been stripped away and she is actually having to fight for votes, she has changed her tune. Now Florida and Michigan voters are important. Now their voices should be heard.

She might want to be careful what she asks for. She has said she would like a re-vote in both states. Does she? Really? She needs to remember that Obama was just a anme her in Florida in Jan. and wasn't even on the ballot in Michigan. Since then Obama has managed to not only make his name a household one, but swayed hundreds of thousands of voters away from the heir apparent to the Clinton Dynasty.

So, okay lets have a re-vote in both states. Give the voters who mistakenly thought HRC was their only choice for  the Democratic nominee a chance to correct their mistake. I'm pretty sure her Majesty will not want those votes counted

I can't understand why anyone is surprised by the "huge" turnout in Texico of Hispanic voters. Geez, look at the population.

But, here is something to ponder, how can we be absolutely certain that the votes cast were actually cast by legal Hispanic citizens? Think about it. I mean really, we can't even verify their legality when we hire them to do those nasty jobs that we natural American citizens don't want.

Now that really fires me up. Whenever I hear that stupid, idiotic statement come out of the mouths of the Hispanics or the politicans like HRC who openly advocate amnesty for illegals, I could just scream. I only have one question for those idiots: Who in the blue h-ll do they think did those crappy jobs BEFORE the illegals began stealing them? We did you stupid jacka--ses!

Whenever I see a poor American family struggling with unemployment, living on food stamps and working two or three jobs just to keep their families' homes and illegals sporting around in $40,000.00 pick-ups, I get incensed. That black man or that single white mother with a limited education worked those low paying jobs to support their families.  The idiots who own those companies and hire these illegals because they'll work for even less need to be fined thousand of dollars daily for that.

I think HRC standing in front of the Alamo in San Antonio was very appropos. We didn't win that war, and we aren't going to win this one, especially with the likes of HRC pandering to the illegals just so she can steal the nomination.

Thanks Texico for putting an end to the notion that the southern US has risen above its soiled reputation as rascist. You're vote for HRC, as oppsed to Obama proves to the rest of the world that the redneck mentality is still alive and well in the Southern US, but nowhere as strong as in Texico.

When you'd rather vote for someone like HRC, with nothing but her twenty plus years as a first lady as her only claim to experience over a cultured and intelligent, get things done black man, you've made the South the laughing stock of the world. Move over Florexico, Texico is gain ing ground on you in the stupidity department!

For the last few weeks we have been subjected daily to HRC's whining about Obama and his ' words'. According to her, all he can do is talk, talk, talk, and her plan for this country involves action not words. Okay, so why then is she insisting on yet another debate? Words folks, words. Apparently she has decided that if she can't beat Obama, (and it looks more and more like she can't) then she'll join him.

My question is how does she figure her ' words' are going to be any more impressive, any more inspiring than his are? Why is it okay for HRC to run off at the mouth about things she truly has no more direct experience with, like foreign policy, the federal deficit and even health care than Obama does?

She is grasping at straws, hoping that if she is bitchy enough,( and that is exactly how she's going to come off sounding in this Ohio debate), then Obama will lose his cool and go on the defensive and then she'll be able to draw herself up, look haughtily down her nose at the Illinois upstart and say, "See, I told you he was just a flash in the pan."

HRC and her campaign staff are at their wits ends. They are losing and they can't fathom that Americans could conceivably be sick to death of politics as usual in DC. She should have wised up to that much earlier on and she might have been able to garner the ground swell of support Obama has. 

The polls have now shown that she is neck and neck with Obama in Texas and in Ohio, Obama is narrowing the gap daily. She needs big wins in those key states to keep her candidacy viable, according to hubby Bill, and that just isn't going to happen.

I want to give Ohio and Texas voters kudos for finally wising up to the fact that twenty years as first lady does not a president make.

Wah, Wah, Wah ! I was wondering when the whining would begin and the sniping. It's here folks.

Hillary Clinton has finally shown her true colors; those of a fourth grader angry and humiliated because she is the last pick for a Red Rover team.

I can just hear her angry, internal retort. "Pick me last will you? Well, I'll fix you. I'll make sure we lose. If you don't want to pick me first because I am after all HRC, then by golly, I'll make sure this team loses the game."

And she will. By changing tactics to this nasty little school girl picked last persona, she has all but ensured that her team will lose this game.

And for added destruction, Nader has once again tossed his hat into the ring. Personally, I think he's a closet Republican. Every time he decides to enter the fray, the Indies vote for him, essentially taking votes away from the Dems, while encouraging the Repulicans to stand staunchly behind their candidate and thus winning the day.

As a registered Republican, all I can say is, "Way to go, Ralphie Boy!

I can almost hear the fat lady tuning up in the wings, and I can  almost, ALMOST feel a bit of sympathy for HRC. ALMOST, but not quite.

She has used her position as First Lady to try and fool American voters into believing she actually has the experience and knowledge to run the country. But, she under-estimated the intelligence of those she is trying to dupe.

We aren't all  un-educated, low income, factory workers, but if I was, I would take issue with her likening me to a dumb BLEEP who can't think for myself. I would be insulted and she would be that last candidate I would vote for.

Just because a person isn't a Rhodes Scholar, a millionaire, or an entrepreneur does not mean they are ignorant ,stupid sheep that can be led to the slaughter, or in HRC's case, the voting booth.

The very fact that she has pinned her hopes of winning the nomination on those her camp terms as uneducated, working poor really angers me. But, even more so is the fact that those very people are the ones who are actually considering voting for her.

Hello people, does NAFTA ring a bell with ANY of you? Factory workers in Ohio, steel workers in PA? Before Bill and Nafta,  you had bright futures, secure, rosy, happy. After NAFTA, what happened? How many of you lost  your jobs? Your homes? Your life savings? Your children's college tuition?

Do you really believe her when she says, and my God, even says it with a straight face, "I was completely against NAFTA from the very start." Oh really? So why then didn't she put a bug in Bill's ear about how bad she thought it would be for her future Presidency?

They didn't talk about it, you say? Of course they did. She's his wife, and you know as well as I do that she was privy to all of his, oh, well ALMOST all of his thoughts and ideas, especially those that could ultimately one day effect her own campaign.

No NAFTA is as much on her head as it is Bill's and come on folks do we really need round three of the Clinton White House, which will ultimately lead us to round three of the Bush White House?

New blood, new ideas and for Pete's sake, a new name.

Obama fits.

This race is getting tighter and more exciting every day. I love reading all the excuses and nonsense Clinton and her core group keep coming up with for why she is beginning to fall behind in the race.
She's waiting for Texas and Ohio to bail her out. Question is, will they?
Personally, I can't see either Texas or Ohio being drawn in by the 'promises' Hillary is making.
She really won't be able to deliver on her promise of National Healthcare now any more than she could the last time she was in the White House. She has all these grand ideas. Okay, so why didn't she implement them eight or ten years ago? All of these arguments would have been moot by now if she had.
Trouble is, any one of the candidates can promise National Healthcare, but none of them will be able to deliver, and personally, I don't think it's something we really need to get involved with.
Health care in this country isn't the best in the world by any stretch, but it is far superior to that in a lot of other countries, but how would it fare if we had a National Health Care Plan? It would take a lot of tax dollars to get that going, not to mention the drug companies would go ballistic if they were forced into a strict pricing guideline. And how about the doctors? Surely no one in this country is naive enough to honestly beleive that people are spending hundreds of thousands of dolllars for medcial school just to be paid a pittance by the feds for thier knowledge and expertise. Face it, money is the bottom line for most of these doctors, so getting them to go along with this plan is going to be tricky at best, impossible actually if you think about it.
But, the promise of health care for everyone aside, when is this country going to wake up and realize that letting the same politicains with the same greed, corrupt morals and dirty dealings keep runnning the country from different seats is never going to work?
Clinton is so busy slinging mud at Obama for his past misdeeds, she seems to have forgotten hers, but we haven't.
America does not need any more of the Clinton's bullying of the delegates, threats, coercion or empty promises. Hillary is tired and it shows, her politics are worn and outdated and it shows.
Obama is fresh and new and brings a bright ray of hope to this political weary nation.
As a registered Republican I have to say this: If Obama wins the nomination, as he by rights should do, then he will get my vote in Nov. If Clinton gets it, then McCain's my go to guy, and I think a lot of Democrats feel the same way.
Maybe they are as sick of the bullying Clintons as I am. Maybe they are as ready for a change as I am. Let's hope so. And let's hope that Texas and Ohio grow a pair and show Clinton that they are ready for a new direction like the rest of the country.

I can't beleive it's that time again! Political commercials every ten minutes of every hour of every day.

"I'm Mitt Romney and I approve this message."

"I'm Rudy Giullani, blah, blah, blah!

I don't know about the rest of you, but my decision to vote for a candidtate has zip to do with their political ads. I'm voting for the candidate who is the best liar. Really. Oh come on, you can't really believe all that BLEEP they're spouting? Really?

Let's take just one look at just one of the liars, uhhh, candidates.

Hillary Clinton. Okay, she can give us lower taxes, a national health care plan, yada, yada, yada.

Yeah? Really? Then how come she didn't give it to us the last time she was in the White House? She had eight long years of running the country while her Hubby in Chief ran interns. If she has all these wonderful ideas that will create a perfect America, why didn't she give them to slick Willy when she had his ear, which apparently is all she had of him most of the time.

But, Bill's extra curricular activities are not the issue, empty promises are. And empty promises are all we ever get from presidential candidates.

Which brings me to my question.

How will you chooses your candidate?

Will you vote for Clinton based on her somewhat spotty reputation, or will you vote for her simply because she's a woman and you are a feminist or a feminist supporter? Is that a good enough reason to put our future in her hands? Just so we can show the world how enlightened and modern thinking we are?  God, one can only hope not.

So, how about Barrack Obama?  An intelligent, well spoken , charismatic gentleman, who graciously returns Clinton's barbs and outright false accusations in a calm, soft-spoken voice. He doesn't have the political saavy Clinton has, but by the same token he doesn't display the  self-important sense of entitlement that Clinton displays, either.

So, will you cast your vote for him because he's a black man? Putting Obama in the White House will show the world how far we've come in race relations, how truly advanced we've become. Is that sufficent reason to put Obama in the White House? Actually, that makes more sense than electing Clinton, and setting you know who loose on the interns again.

Mitt Romney? Well, he's got the business saavy to fix the financial problems of this country, but does he have the necessary experience to handle world affairs? I don't think so.

John McCain? A war hero, an experienced politican, wise to ways of Washington, but he can't seem to make up his mind whose side he's on. Is he a Republican or is he a closet Democrat?

The rest of them, well. John Edwards is a nice enough guy, but I think that is his biggest downfall. He's too nice. Politics is dirty business, and if you aren't willing to sling a little mud, then you better not step into the mudhole.

Mike Huckabee? All I can say about him is.... Who? Before this campaign, did you ever hear of him? Really?

So, what are we do. I think I have the perfect solution to this whole nasty affair. We'll have one party representative run as President and one as Veep. That way, neither side has the upper hand, and neither one can point fingers and/or sling mud during the next election. If the country goes to hell, we can blame both sides. If it comes together nicely and prosperously, we can applaud both sides. Works for me.

To me the perfect ticket will be: McCain as Pres. Obama as veep. Trust me we can do much worse, and we more than likely will.

Please God, any woman in the White House but her. Hey Oprah, you interested?
