Obama's &amp;nbsp;goal in this campaign is to insult the people he wants to get votes from, is that right. Obama says he understands &amp;nbsp;why the people are bitter and thats looking down on people? What if Obama didn't address how the people felt. What if Obama just said who cares why the people are bitter. Would that have made Hillary feel better. The claim Obama looks down on people isn't even worth a witch hunt. Hillary's imagination is far superior to either Obama's or McCain's and this is what she came up with. If Obama looks down on people, he wouldn't &amp;nbsp;have waited until he got to Pennsylvania. Nor would Obama be ahead in this race. Could it be maybe thats why Hillary is losing. No matter how you dress Hillary up, she always seems to be talking down to people. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you think Barack Obama with little or no experience would be better than Hillary Clinton with 35 years experience.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You Might Be An Idiot!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you think that Obama with no experience can fix an economy on the verge of collapse better than Hillary Clinton. Whose ;-) husband (Bill Clinton) led the greatest economic expansion, and prosperity in American history.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You Might Be An Idiot!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you think that Obama with no experience fighting for universal health care can get it for you better than Hillary Clinton. Who anticipated this current health care crisis back in 1993, and fought a pitched battle against overwhelming odds to get universal health care for all the American people.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You Might Be An Idiot!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you think that Obama with no experience can manage, and get us out of two wars better than Hillary Clinton. Whose ;-) husband (Bill Clinton) went to war only when he was convinced that he absolutely had to. Then completed the mission in record time against a nuclear power. AND DID NOT LOSE THE LIFE OF A SINGLE AMERICAN SOLDIER. NOT ONE!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You Might Be An Idiot!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you think that Obama with no experience saving the environment is better than Hillary Clinton. Whose ;-) husband (Bill Clinton) left office with the greatest amount of environmental cleanup, and protections in American history.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You Might Be An Idiot!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you think that Obama with little or no education experience is better than Hillary Clinton. Whose ;-) husband (Bill Clinton) made higher education affordable for every American. And created higher job demand and starting salary’s than they had ever been before or since.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You Might Be An Idiot!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you think that Obama with no experience will be better than Hillary Clinton who spent 8 years at the right hand of &amp;nbsp;President Bill Clinton. Who is already on record as one of the greatest Presidents in American history.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You Might Be An Idiot!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you think that you can change the way Washington works with pretty speeches from Obama, rather than with the experience, and political expertise of two master politicians ON YOUR SIDE like Hillary and Bill Clinton..&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You Might Be An Idiot!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you think all those Republicans voting for Obama in the Democratic primaries, and caucuses are doing so because they think he is a stronger Democratic candidate than Hillary Clinton. :-)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;jacksmith...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;p.s. You Might Be An Idiot!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you don't know that the huge amounts of money funding the Obama campaign to try and defeat Hillary Clinton is coming in from the insurance, and medical industry, that has been ripping you off, and killing you and your children. And denying you, and your loved ones the life saving medical care you needed. All just so they can make more huge immoral profits for them-selves off of your suffering...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You see, back in 1993 Hillary Clinton had the audacity, and nerve to try and get quality, affordable universal health care for everyone to prevent the suffering and needless deaths of hundreds of thousands of you each year. :-)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Approx. 100,000 of you die each year from medical accidents from a rush to profit by the insurance, and medical industry. Another 120,000 of you die each year from treatable illness that people in other developed countries don’t die from. And I could go on, and on...&lt;/p&gt;

Hillary is fairly lambasted for telling lies, but Obama shouldn't be lambasted for telling the truth!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Obama supporters are in denial about their guy. &amp;nbsp;They make statements like, &amp;quot;he speaks to who we are.&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;Please. &amp;nbsp;They refuse to believe that he is not the person that have been sold. &amp;nbsp;He has been marketed by the media and his trainers and they should never allow him to speak on his own. &amp;nbsp;The press does their level best to cover up for him though. &amp;nbsp;He is much better (for his koolaid drinkers) when he uses someone's words other than his own. &amp;nbsp;He is a very naive, inexperienced person who will bring great harm to the US. &amp;nbsp;It is really scary that he has gotten this far. &amp;nbsp;Can you imagine this person dealing with foreign digitaries. &amp;nbsp;What would he tell them? &amp;nbsp;Really scary.&lt;/p&gt;

In essence, he helps to finance her campaign by opposing her views. If she is elected he will be able to put the lobbyists money to good use. She will be able to adjust her position &amp;nbsp;since she won't need the voters of Pennsylvania anymore, Only the Clintons' could run together while one pretends to support an issue and the other actively accepts money to oppose it. Only the Clintons' could use his experience as President to justify her qualifications to be President and at the same time emphasize her independence from him on tricky issues like free trade. Enough voters in Pennsylvania may be fooled again by Hillary and Bill, but not enough voters elsewhere have been or will be. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

I am a middle class blue collar worker. As are my co-workers and some friends. What Obama said is true. They are bitter. You in the media love this battle. But I tell you as a supposed Hillary demographic. I have discussed my support for Obama with others and took heat for it. But I will continue and for all those Obama dissers out there. Ya know what if he is a lousy President you can vote him out in 4 years. I thought America rooted for the underdog. Obama even though he leads &amp;nbsp;is &amp;nbsp;theunderdog. Clintons once again are showing they will say anything to win. When in fact they do the opposite. I voted twicefor bill and it's time this country moved away from the Bush's and the Clintons. How screwed up is our political system that 2 families have controlled this country for soo long?&lt;/p&gt;
