<<<Hillary might squeak out the nomination, but she can't win in the general. She's just unelectible...plain and simple.>>>

I hope we are a little smarter than you think.

This election may be about the economy.

I hope if she is the nominee, they give her a chance to debate McCain.

I think we know who is smarter, who knows the economy better, and who knows the budget process better.

We were fooled only recently into electing someone that was not prepared to be President, will we be fooled again?

The contrast in intellect between Clinton and McCain is stark. Please, let the better person win.

Looks like McCain is our next president.. Oh, this does hurt.
100 years in Iraq the worst and our debt mounting to help the Iraq war instead of our people here.. We live here.. We need infrastructure here. We need to rebuild or do something with New Orleans. We have to get the homeless off the streets.
We have to help those without medical coverage. WE have to provide more prisons to lock up all these drug violators.

We need more programs for drug users. I cannot believe what I hear in Al Anon about young teen agers over dosing..
One woman who lost a son said 12 of her son's friends died last year of drug overdosing..

WE need so much. Let's get the hell out of the middle east and let them settle their own problems..

>>Obama has stalled and is going backwards now. But things are always fluid.<<

Kate -

I've heard a few people say that, but I wonder what that's based on. I know that he has only been adding both pledged and super delegates in the past couple of weeks, so it's not that. His lead over Clinton is increasing.

Does it have something to do with polls?
