This so called nomination candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton once again shows she will stop at nothing for her own personal self interest! her lies and the dirty campaign she conducts is seriously becoming damaging both to her Party and the USA is this how we run Politics!

Stand aside Hillary and try and keep hold of the little respect you still have - THE TRUTH we have all wanted to see is your TAX RETURNS but know you will not release them!

I am sick and tired of swiftboating of Obama by old school democrates and of those, who think they OWN democratic party, they vote democratic Voting blocks and democracy means NOTHING unless they win. I am so sick and I will probably will not even vote this November. Let the GOP win. If people of this country goes with swiftboaters, then let McCain rule in the name of BUSH another 4 years.

I am waiting for Bill Clinton to follow Richardson's example and endorse Obama. He may get a nice ambassadorship out of it. There is nothing he could get from Hillary anyway.

Hillary Clinton and Dick Cheney must be related. If she shams her way to the nomination she would be asked how she could do that with the popular vote and the delegate vote against her. I'm sure her answer would be, "so".

She will do anything to get the nomination and damn the voters. Beware the blood line too. We, the voters, will undoubtedly have to face another Clinton for presidency scheme...Chelsea.

We desperately need a new breed of leaders...Go Obama. Or God help us!

I say get the delegates anyway you can. Who is faulting Obama for buying superdelegates with campaign funds. It's dogie dog. The survival of the fittest and if Obama can't play the game, get the hell out.

Boy, this is getting scary! If Hillary scams the nomination, the Dems can kiss the presidency good-bye! It is obvious that the Neo-cons want Hillary because she's beatable but are scared to death by Barack who offers something new and fresh! If the young people, liberals and blacks are scorned they will NEVER vote for Hillary; they would stay home instead! I am a white 60 year-old woman who has lost all respect for the Clintons and the Repugs.....been waiting for this election to decide if I am moving to Canada where I own land. If Hillary gets the nomination, my answer will be a resounding YES! I can't take any more of the dysfunctional immoral "politics" in this country!

Hillary has to try something other then her own appeal. We know her appeal alone will never do it for her. Playing the victim didn't work. Experience and issues didn't work. Obama has no experience didn't work. Obama is all talk and no action didn't work. Throwing Ferraro under the bus didn't work. Attacks from talk radio and Fox on Obama aren't working. Operation Chaos isn't working for Hillary. Bill Clinton hasn't worked. Rather then admit to herself, that maybe the voters want Obama over her, there's only one course left for Hillary to take. The Super Delegates. If there's one thing the Clinton's have always known, is whats best for the American people even if the American people don't see eye to eye with that assumption. In any case the Clinton's feel, your going to get the Clinton's whether you like it or not. Even if it means stealing Super Delegates, and if the Super Delegates don't want to switch, I'm sure Hillary's investigators can change their minds. I think a lot of people have forgotten how the Clinton's feel about the Presidency. As Gov. Richardson puts it, the Clinton's looks at the Presidency as an entitlement. Enough said.

Absolutely, positively, incredible! I know everyone has joked all along about the fact that Hillary would do anything to win, but this is a new low. One poster made the comment that you should get the delegates anyway you can. Does that mean to lie, cheat, and steal to do it as well? Are those traits someone would value in their president? Everyone, just take a simple step back and look at this WHOLE picture. Maybe I'm looking at it through a skewed lense, but I see Obama playing by the rules from the very beginning. They agreed on Michigan and Florida and he said okay. Hillary wants to change that now. This is how you get delegates he said okay, she wants to change that as well. Her husband tries to belittle his S. Carolina victory, okay. She tries to belittle him by making him her Veep, that's okay. She is absolutely without a conscience -- and folks that IS scary. As a staunch, lifelong Democrat, I've NEVER voted against my party in 47 years. I've never missed a presidential vote since I was old enough to vote because I've felt the right to do so was bought at a price. If Hillary was our nominee under POACHING conditions, however, I'd be faced with a dilemma. Not vote or vote for McCain. And if I voted for McCain, I think I would probably go so far as to campaign for his as well. Hillary HAS to be sent a message that you can't stab your own party in the back and expect them to reward you with the nomination. I hope, if nothing else, the Superdelegates can see through her antics and would be wise enough to exercise the proper judgement. As a matter of fact, I'd like to see them do it NOW! Think about it, in literally every other presidential primary we've pretty much identified our nominee by now. That's why so many wanted to vote early. Yes, there's 8 states and two territories left to vote, but they thought before the primary began that it would be over by now anyway. All we're doing now is playing a waiting game. No one believes she'll "run the table," especially by the margins she would need to pass Obama. And without MI and FL she can't win the popular vote if she can't win the delegate numbers, so why the delay? Oh, that's right, Hillary's waiting on him to "slip up" so she can move in to become the nominee. What a strategy to endorse, Oh Wise Superdelegates! Meanwhile, BOTH of our nominees are now trailing McCain in the polls ... and dropping! C'mon! Let's get on with it already!

Disenfranchise? Hmmm? First Florida and Michigan, now all of the U.S.A.?

Come on Hillary, you said it yourself; the voice of the people must be heard!

Face it; you lost!

Hillary Clinton is the most dirty politician among democrats in recent history. Her negative campaign based on deceptions and lies should disgust any decent democrat, or voter in general, to vote for her for the nomination or during a general election.

Fortunately, even insiders in her campaign confirm that the chances for her to win the nomination are slim to none: see the articles

CLINTON'S CHANCES VIRTUALLY NIL...

STORY BEHIND THE STORY: THE CLINTON MYTH

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0308/9149.html

So Hillary now understands that she will not win the nomination and she is playing for 2012 by making sure that the democrats will lose in 2008.

Let's hope that the superdelegates will put an end to the campaign of this kamikaze who believes in ressurection; after all, she is supposed to be Jesus or one of his associates if Bill Richardson is Judas.

I'll bet anyone dollars to donuts Barack Hussein Obama will not be the President elect of the USA after the general election.

Hillary is a true fighter. She's got more 'jewels' than Obama ever will. She had to fight the media at the beginning while Obama ran off with the ball on a clean sprint. Shame on the media to demonize Hillary. To her credit, she hung in tough. Even took Obama to school in every head to head debate. No doubt who's the better politician between the two.

Hillary even manages to close the gap despite Barack being exposed for the farce called Mr.Wright .Its astonishing Americans and the media is even giving Obama the light of day on these disturbing turn of events on race precipitated no doubt by Mr.Wright and Obama's campaign. Barack was the one who had to come up with the 'I'm coming clean speach' to the USA to save his political ass.

Obama is too chicken to see the Florida and Michigan votes count. That says it all about his character to be a Commander-In-Chief. He's got none!

The media's intent on trying to destroy Hillary at the beginning turned this Democratic primary race upside down. All bets are off now and anything goes. Hillary is free to do whatever she likes to persuade delegates to switch to her side. I see nothing wrong with that in light of everything thats transpired. She has just a good a chance still to win the nomination as Barack does. And if were Hillary, I wouldn't hesitate to line up the the lawyers to prepare lawsuits against the media, Barack, Florida state legislature, Michigan state legislature, DNC, Howard Dean, Nancy Pelosi, the whole gang etc., if the democratic process is not allowed to play out till the bitter end at the convention with all delegates from all the states being seated. That would gaurantee Barack to be 'unseated'.

A lot of people liken Hillary to a "fighter". Well, even fighters have to play by the rules. In boxing, you can't hit below the belt. Yet that is exactly what Hillary is doing with her campaign. And there is no doubt that she is trying to get pledged delegates to change their vote.

In Texas alone, there is a delegate calling party to call delegates and convince them to change

Hillary has no respect for the people or this country. Her blind ambition is damaging the Democrats chances of winning the general election.

She has no need to stoop to such low tactics. Because when the dust settles these delegates will galdly do the right thing - vote Hillary Clinton. That is assuming that the Dems want to win come November.

After 12 hours of calling delegates (designated Clinton supporters only) I can attest that I encountered some horrific examples of Obama supporters going to extraordinary efforts to subvert the Texas County Convention today, despite all protests to the contrary. There were emails sent out from an address eerily similar to Hillary Clinton's delegate information site which informed Clinton delegates that their conventions had been cancelled; other emails indicated an erroneous change in location; time changes (from 8 am to 8 pm, for example) which would have disqualified them from participating; information offered that delegates could attend any convention site they desired and NOT the one designated by virtue of their precinct location. Postcards encouraging a change to Obama went out to Hispanic voters. Lists of delegates and alternates with their contact information collected by precinct secretarys and captains supporting Obama in the March 4 caucuses were not made available to Clinton precinct captains. The complaints went on and on and the counties were numerous: Harris, Galveston, Tarrant, Johnson, Grimes, Bexar, Dallas etc, etc. I am not suggesting that these tactics were orchestrated by the National Campaign, but there are definitely rogue operatives out there who have taken a tip out of Karl Rove's playbook and the folks back at Obama Central must have gotten wind of some of these actions and perhaps winked at them. I have no axe to grind; I am a lifelong Democrat who happens to support Hillary for an abundance of reasons. Having volunteered to make calls to get out the vote and to make sure our delegates were aware of the details of convention day, I can attest to what I heard repeatedly. It was disheartening to realize these vile actions were taken on behalf of a man who professes to promote harmony on both sides of the aisle as well as in his own party. It runs contrary to

what I consider fair play. I'm sure that others will respond with more of same vitriol which is uniquely reserved for the first woman to make a credible run for the presidency. She is, afterall, an easy target for for anyone who'd like to take a cheap shot at a woman while hiding behind the sanctimony of their support for Senator Obama. I was hoping (stupidly, I guess) that our nomination process would be a little more civilized than it's turning out to be. Everyone in this country is entitled to have their vote count ---not those casting votes for the person you support.

Newsweek readers seem to forget the relevance of some of the largest untruths to be told: Large volumes of documents relating to the Iran-Contra scandal were destroyed or withheld from investigators by Reagan administration officials. The affair is still shrouded in secrecy. After the weapon sales were revealed in November 1986, President Ronald Reagan appeared on national television and denied that they had occurred. The foreign branch of the US intelligence community still denies that they helped bin Laden recruit radical Islamic "fighters" that they trained to fire hand-held missiles, to detonate explosives and employ guerrilla tactics; they provided funding for the Taliban during the Soviet-Afganistan War, which, ultimately, helped bring about the demise of the Soviet Union. In violation of the Boland Amendment, Reagan outwardly lied to the American public and yet his illustrious presidency remains untarnished. Share this while calling pledged delegates.
