uh...er..yes, in this awkward primary of your party. He will fall apart soon enough with Rezko being the greater of his problems. It is early Kenneth. Don't be so excited.

LOL! Does anyone ever take you seriously at your job? The only reason O'bama's polls are "going up" is because hillary's polls are tanking.

BTW, O'bama said his mother was not a Christian, but
she was a kind person, so he expects to see her in heaven. If she refused Christ as her Savior, and you being a Christian as you are, please reconcile that so I can figure out how to do it too.

Please use one of the versions of the Bible only ; KJ, NKJ, NIV, NASB, AS,JNTP.

1 less delegate

>Puerto Rico governor indicted,Obama supporter

By Sam Youngman

03/27/08

Puerto Rican Gov. Anibal Acevedo Vila (D), who is a superdelegate supporting Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) for president, was indicted on 19 counts Thursday stemming from financial dealings in three political campaigns.

Acevedo reportedly denied the charges of illegal fundraising and election fraud, and The New York Times reported he will turn himself in to authorities.

The Obama campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Acevedo becomes the third Democratic governor in recent days to find himself in an unwelcome spotlight.

New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer (D), a supporter of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.), resigned earlier this month amid allegations that he was part of a prostitution ring.

Spitzer’s successor, Gov. David Paterson (D), acknowledged in interviews after taking office that he and his wife both engaged in extramarital affairs and that he used drugs in the past.<

There’s already grumbling that Mrs. Clinton’s real strategy is to destroy Mr. Obama’s chances of winning the general election so that she can compete in 2012.

Senator Clinton, who has done so much fine work on health and children’s issues for so many years and who more recently has been an outstanding senator, deserves better. Likewise, Mr. Clinton, who tackled AIDS and poverty so passionately since leaving the White House, risks tarnishing his own legacy. His poll approval ratings have dropped steadily, and he now has higher unfavorable ratings than favorable.

If Mrs. Clinton can run a high-minded, civil campaign and rein in her proxies, then she has every right to continue through the next few primaries, and the Democrats might even benefit from the bolstered attention and turnout. But if the brawl continues, then she and her husband may be remembered by many people who long admired them as having the same effect on Mr. Obama this November that Ralph Nader had on Al Gore in 2000.

Do the Clintons really want to risk becoming the Naders of 2008?
