Greetings,

Its clear the people are speaking and it is my sincere hope that our candidates are truly listening. There are a lot of different types of people voting for Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama: the young, the old, the black, the hispanic, the white, the independent, the women, the rich, the poor, the laborers, etc. The list goes on and on. Amongst these categories, the vote will continue to remain split across the country. The democratic race will continue to remain split amongst all democratic voters throughout the convention, even after the final complicated calculations and one is finally chosen.

If either, Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama, fail as the democratic nominee to choose the other as their Vice Presidential nominee, then I believe they will fail all these excited voters looking for change with the experience to do it. I cannot think of a stronger team, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, for our democratic ticket.

Either way, beyond the elections, I believe both candidates will make powerful allies as vice presidents and will have the abilities to ensure positive movement on any complex issues. Or will ego get in the way of the people's will?

In the past, democrats have not been able to take advantage of the strength voters give them and here is another perfect opportunity. The voters come out in record numbers for these two democratic candidates and, in general, say they wouldn't mind if either one was the president. It's an opportunity to finally unite the people with the politicians and avoid disappointing them once again.

While I agree that the people are on the move, fed up with the machinations of the Bush administration, I don't agree that, whoever wins the nomination should take the other one as VP.
John Edwards as VP will bring the voice of the People into the White House, where it needs to be. Edwards was not shut out by the American People, but by the bought and paid for media, who were pandering to their corporate bosses.
The oligarchial uber-rich are wanting a Republi-lite candidate who would be soft on fair taxes and fair trade.
If we want a clean sweep, John Edwards needs to be included in the next administration.
It was many of his ideas which were picked up by the other candidates, which brought people to the polls last night.
The American People are tired of same 'ol same 'ol where they continually get the short end of the stick, while the rich and greedy are making out like fat rats.
Now, we need to support each and every populist legislatorial and gubenatorial candidate we can in order to ensure that our next president gets the backing they need to effect positive changes and clean up the Katrina-like mess that the Bushiato has imposed on the American People!

I am very scared that the democrats will shot themselves in the foot. We could take the White House and put more Democrats in the house and senate if the democratic party does not destroy themselves, and take there supporters with them. If we lose this year you will see the number of people at a democratic caucus go down and down.

I got another urgent email from Howard Dean regarding beating McCain. McCain can wait.. I want to know how to help Obama beat the Billary Machine.

The Clintons are unbelievably smart. But reflecting on my loathing of McCain, because he sucked up his own party's machinations - Rove's dirty trix in 2000/2004, to be in his present position.. the man would do anything, anything, to be President.

I realized that Hillary has a similar character.. Bill, by indulging his sexuality while in office, literally IN the oval office, had placed her in a position of sucking it up or throwing him out.. and since she wants to be President as much as McCain does, she stayed married to this smart and charming philanderer.

A little reflection on the character of the various candidates can help inform the voters.

OBAMA!!

This clearly shows the effect Barack Obama is having on the campaign, bringing in new voters, attracting independents and even many Republicans. I am in Missouri, a so-called bell-weather state, and I was amazed at the level of support for Senator Obama. People were going out to vote specifically because he was on the ballot rather than voting for the Democratic Party, or against the Republican Party. These were people moved by and dedicated to Sen. Obama.

We will certainly NOT be supporting the Democratic Party unless Barack Obama IS the nominee. My husband served this country in the armed forces for 23 years, all the time being a loyal supporter of the Democratic Party, but he will not support Hillary Clinton under any circumstances. He believes, as I do, that there is a limit to a two-term presidency for good reason. The American Revolution threw off the notion of dynasties governing. We are not about to hand the country back to a Bush-Clinton-Bush-Clinton group if "insiders".

I have never, repeat never voted for a Republican candidate. However, I promise you that I will support McCain over Obama. Here is why. I want to see a voting record. I want a President who didn't avoid issues simply to avoid being caught out on the wrong side of the vote. That doesn't make him right. That makes him scary.

I keep hearing about how horrible Hillary is for having stayed with her husband. She must have done it because she wants the Presidency. That is almost laughable. Aren't you the same people that are comparing Michelle Obama to Jackie Kennedy? Didn't she stay with her husband when he had not one, but several affairs? What about Ted Kennedy and his support of Obama? Is it any better that he cheated on his wife? How is Hillary to blame for her husband's cheating? This argument is simply circular logic that doesn't hold up to analysis.

Character is all fine and dandy. I am all for it. In fact, let's see--Bush claimed to have character. He said he was different and would bring change. He would be a uniter. Does it sound familiar? I'm sorry, I can't take a chance on no experience.

I don't agree with McCain on a lot of issues, but he is the less risky candidate if our nominee is Obama.

On another note, I would like to point out that several presidential elections have hinged on those important swing states (i.e. Florida). I understand that the decision of the leaders there to move up the primary violated the rules. However, I have to ask, do you really think those voters that are notoriously fickle and swing from one party to the other are going to forgive a candidate that mocked them? He sent out emails saying the vote there didn't matter, it was a beauty contest, Obama 0, Clinton 0. I have many, many relatives in that state. I can assure you they are angry and will not support him if he wins. The Democratic Party might want to think about the ramifications to the general election that comes with ignoring Florida.

Dear Fellow Americans,

We are coming close to an inevitable crossroad in our broken political system, Senator Barack Obama has come as a beacon of light offering us (the United States) hope, change and an opportunity to get past our so called differences and to come together as Americans. America IS a Great Nation but she has been devalued by the status quo political machine, her luster has been dimmed and moral clarity has been diminished. This political year is different from years past because we have been given the rare chance as Americans - to truly participate and be apart of a movement and not just a platform. I am neither 'red' nor 'blue', I am Purple and I am an American, I will not rally around the status quo, business as usual, partisan politics and dirty campaign trickster just because they cry and manipulate their way into a nomination. I love and support Senator Obama with every fiber of my being and now that I have walked in the light I cannot willingly go back into the dark just because there is a darker boogey man (McCain, Romney, Huckabee) hiding in the closet. If HRC somehow manages to get the nomination I vow to actively campaign against both established parties, to actively seek to uphold a viable 3rd party ..."the Hope Party", we will write in our candidate's name on our voting ballot. Senator Obama is the candidate of Hope, he just happens to be a Democrat but he, like Dr. King, JFK, Bobby Kennedy, and countless others have surpassed a label as trivial as democrat he is an American and he is America's candidate, he has shown us that we are 'Purple' and they we can be united as Americans. Today my fellow purple Americans (purplelers) join with me to send the DNC a message, let them know that we are serious and we are willing to register independent and vote HOPE by writing in HOPE in November if the special interested 'super delegates' chose to show moral cowardice and vote for the status quo...She will not ever step foot in the white house, because she will need us to help get her there and we will not squander our Hope ever again. So let HRC keep being the divisive person she is and she and Bill can paint their house white and she can run it but not our beloved Country. No amount of tears in the world will compel us to turn off our lights and blindly go back into the dark.

Yes We Can vote HOPE...write in Obama for President in November no matter what!!! Keep the list growing:

Mr Dean,

your comments concerning the possibility of allowing 20 Super Delegates to become the arbitrators of the Florida and Michigan delegates I find to be very distasteful not to mention extremely suspicious.

The actions of the DNC and yourself in this matter remind me of what I would expect from the other party sir. After requesting that all candidates comply with your initial decision you now seek a way to reward the only candidate who signed on to and then openly went against your wishes. Further more you do this knowing that to do so would give them a totally unfair advantage over those who complied.

The simple and obvious question that arises from these actions is, WHY?? And I get chills from the answer that comes to mind.

Sir I will tell you now in no uncertain term that were you and DNC to proceed with such folly that my days as a Democrat would come to an end at that exact moment. I cannot and will not support a party that extoles the principles of democracy even in it's very name while seeking to demean it in it's very actions.

The irony of it all!!!

Sir the only decent solution would be to penalize the two great States a portion of their delegates for the offenses, then wipe the slates clean and schedule new primaries in each state, giving the two candidates enough time to campaign fairly in each.

Short of this the DNC and you sir MUST stand by your original position or loose all credibility as a party.

The only reason all of these new voters are coming out is to support Barack Obama. My money and my vote is only for Barack. Period!

I do appreciate both the irony and the ferver of many of Mr Obama's supporters. I believe the built up anger of the last 7 years is reflected in their "movement". I also believe it is wrongly focused on the people who were not able to "stop" Bush rather than on Bush and his buddies.

I am from Texas. Bush was a "change" candidate who was an outsider from Washington. Although I am not in a hurry to return to a Clinton Whitehouse I am not anxious for a return to a Kennedy Camelot that would never survive the current media hounds and the Millenium mentality.

Whether or not Hillary becomes the nominee I will be voting Democratic this year. And I am more than a little concerned that I have 3 friends in Michigan and 1 in Florida that may be disenfranchised by the Democratic party. And the populist "change" candidate is not interested in taking up their cause. But then I'm sure his position would be different if he had won FL.

If the DNC allows the FLA and MI states to have their delegates counted before all the candidates have a chance to campaign is unthinkable. Not only would I immediately register as an Independent, I would do everything in my power to help all these disenfranchised Obama supporters start a solid their party in this country. I am sorry to be so strong, but this is no laughing matter - the people want true change in this country!

Will the Obama groupies please stop the Hillary bashing! She survived the best shot Obama could deliver on Tuesday and came out in front. Those of you that think the actual voters of Michigan and Florida should be disenfranchised because they voted for Hillary; shame on you. You think they don't know who to vote for in either state? Get a grip. There is a simple question you have to ask yourselves. If Hillary wins the nomination, will you vote for her or McCain? Obama groupies note this is a YES or NO question; I don't need an Obama groupie sermon.

Dear DRay,
Obama has raised more money from more people than anyone would have ever imagined- $32 million alone in January if you missed the headlines...and he will continue to do so if he succeeds as the Democratic Nominee for the Presidency. This is the first time I have ever given money to a compaign and as long as Obama is in the running I will continue to do so. This election has opened up a dialoge between my 66 year old father and I that we never shared before. This morning I found out that he is an Obama supporter. He told me he has given to the Democratic Party in years past, but is waiting for Obama to win at the convention before contributing this year... and said he would not give if HRC gets the nod. I was actually surprised to hear him say this, but it speaks to the power of Obama's grassroots fundraising campaign. The dems will get a great return on thier investment with Obama!

The implication for Democratic races across the country is staggering! Take a close look at OH-3, which Ted Strickland carried by 56%. It is turning blue, and any increase in voter turnout like this could make it deep NAVY blue!

DNC

I am a life-long democrat and have never pulled a lever for a republican but if the Michigan and Florida delegates are not seated I will cross the aisle and vote for McCain. I am not alone in this - why are these people's votes being thrown in the trash when it was not up to them when the primaries were held.

Since when are we the party that keeps votes from counting - even the republicans only took away half of the delegates -

Stop this madness SEAT THE MICHIGAN AND FLORIDA DELEGATES.

I am urging all my friends/family and any concerned democrat to call the DNC and make the votes count!!!!

I would really like to get to the bottom of MSNBC they are so biased towards Obama - it is almost like they are his private network. This is no joke - Fox is more balanced when it comes to this election and I NEVER thought I would say that.

Also, I am a 50 year old white woman voting for Hillary because she is in my opinion the most qualified. I am not a racist as I have voted for many black candidates in my lifetime but in this election you are deemed politically incorrect if you say anything negative in any way about Obama or anything positive about Clinton as you will be deemed racist.

Why is it okay for blacks to vote over 90% in some states for Obama and they are not racist? When not long ago they were for Clinton - surely they did not change all their minds in such a short time because of the issues.

Democrats have to be able to really tell it like it is and stop trying to always being afraid to say anything that may be deemed "racist".

Hillary is just the most qualified - period. Obama should be V.P. and that way he will gain experience and then run for President again.

We will take the White House without division of our party if the ticket is Clinton/Obama.

It's clear to me that Obama is a much stonger candidate. Going with H. is risky in view of her high negatives. Not only is she awash with corporate lobbyist money, but she committed the unforgiveable sin of voting against legislation to ban cluster bombs. Her reluctance to engage with foreign heads of state with whom she disagrees is so reminiscent of GWB; isn't it time we dealt with the rest of the world with a spirit of respect rather than bullying and demonization? All of these things will make it impossible for progressives to support her with any degree of enthusiasm. Obama on the other hand comes across as a man of great integrity, judgement and openess. Unlike H. he will be able to bring in both independent and even Republican voters. He will also be able to bring in southern states that have not voted for a democrat in generations. My hope is that party bigwigs will not sabotage our best hope for real change and the candidacy of a man who operates from inate moral beliefs in favor of a triangluator.

My resources are currently committed to getting Obama nominated as the Democratic candidate. He has the best chance of beating McCain in the general election as well as the ability to bring out the vote needed to elect Democrats across the board.
Senator Clinton's vote for the war, without bothering to read the N.I.E. is troublesome and her failure to vote against cluster bombs is unacceptable.
Of course I will vote for Senator Clinton in the general. As an Arizona Democrat there is no way I could vote for McCain.

It's interesting to note the increase of democrats voting in tradional red states. Why do you think that is? I don't expect it would have something to do with Obama's campaign would it?

Barack Obama inspires people across party lines. He's built a grass roots movement that is increasing participation in the political process particularly amongst young people.

Clearly he has demonstrated his ability as a leader to mobilize people to participate, to mobilize, to get out the vote, like no other candidate in recent memory.

Clinton on the other hand is divisive and incites Republicans to unite against her.

If it comes down to a tie or a split convention, I would hope the super delegates would rally around Barack Obama. He's the best thing to happen to the Democratic Party since John F. Kennedy. To ignore him and the millions he's mobilized would be to send the Democratic Party into the wilderness, perhaps never to return.

Obama represents a new kind of politics and leadership for the 21st century. It's my hope that the Democratic Party has the courage and sense to embrace him, shun special interests and lobbyists, and campaign together for genuine reform of the American political process.

Thanks for the summary Matt Ortega! I'm in Kansas City, KS. I can't seem to find a concise record of how many people showed up at the last caucus, but according to CBS news in Kansas City: "More than 33,000 people participated in the caucuses statewide, more than three times as many as party officials had predicted would show up." In Johnson Co., KS, we had our primary OUTSIDE in the rain and sleet because the site was way too small-- they expected 100 and got 2000! Kansas caucuses statewide recorded such record turnouts. It was (and is) extremely exciting. I have no doubt that the republicans should be VERY alarmed-- we will win Washington.
I also have to say "Amen" to Martlet: my husband & I will definitely not support Clinton for all the reasons Martlet lays out. We saw coverage of Marti Gras and someone was holding a sign: "I support the wife of Monica Lewinski's ex-boyfriend." It's time for some new NON-BUSH, non-Clinton blood in the Whitehouse.

I have the same plan as you - Obama, he says he's sure he has Hillary's votes - but is unsure that Hillary has his. HOW RUDE! Wrong Obama I agree with Cjohnson254 you are not experienced enough to be a President right now - If Obama wins McCain has my vote.

Sorry Florida & Michigan this party has held your votes for ransom and now wants you to have a caucus so Obama can win, when you already voted for Clinton? Shame on the DNC!

Yes, RECORD TURN OUT!

And guess what, Hillary is winning the popular vote. Sorry, Dean, but Hillary got more votes in FL than the entire 2004 field combined, and beat you all by 150K votes.

Posted by Sammy9000 on February 6, 2008 at 06:01 PM

Sammy 100% agree - I have been called a racist against blacks and men because I support Clinton.
Is this election going to be won by playing the race card?
She is smarter and has more experience.

The Kennedy's are a joke in Mass and deserve what the voters of Mass did to them.
To call Obama JFK like - is like calling Bill Clinton MLK like.
It's not right to compare our heros of the past to people of present time it upsets a lot of folk. Let them make their own way instead of riding coattails

Posted by obamican on February 6, 2008 at 03:51 PM
Obamican - it didn't help him in FL, MI, NY or in CA hmmmm the way I look at it - there are a lot of states that just didn't come through for him, his money is probably coming from his real estate friend?

Ignoring the Obama vs. Clinton arguments, I think the turnout numbers could be very promising for us in November. I was especially glad to see that turnout for the primary was higher (sometimes far higher) among Democrats than Republicans in Arkansas, Georgia, Missouri, Oklahoma and Tennessee -- all states that went for Bush in 2004.

Analysis on the Web site link...

Sorry, I guess the Web site link didn't take. Here it is: http://www.derekbaker.com

It seems to me that it would be very significant to post the growth in primary voters over that last few election cycles. It would be pleasing (to me) to see how that compares with republican results. Since I love to crunch numbers, a nice table of results by state would be great as well. Does anyone have a link to concise data of that sort?

Unfortunately we may not be competitive in Florida. A nightmare situation for our party is setting up whereby Obama may be the winner if the Florida delegates are not seated. This will result in a no win situation for Democrats. Either, Clinton will win and Obama supporters will cry foul and perhaps withhold support; or Obama will win and we can write off Florida in the general election.

The Florida situation has been mishandled by the national leadership. They need to start some type of damage control while this this nightmare situation is only a possibility. Unfortunately I do not know what the damage control could be.

What a mess the party is in. Voters are coming out in record numbers, but the possibility of a nominee chosen by superdelegates (UGH) or the reinstatement of Michigan and Florida delegates threatens the unity of the party. I, for one, am supporting Obama. I am donating to his campaign (I've never given money to a politician before -- not even Howard Dean), making signs and attending rallies. If Hillary is the nominee will I support her? I guess it depends. Will she be the nominee as a result of superdelegates? Of Florida and Michigan delegates? If so, then I will be hunting for a third party candidate or writing in. Her scheming is quite a turn off. While people can berate Obama for not fighting to include the MI and FL delegates, does anyone REALLY think Hillary would be bringing it up if she hadn't covertly had her surrogates campaign in those states and won them? If you really want Michigan and Florida to count, set up a new primary or caucus in those states. The voters in those states should be upset with their own government for violating rules in changing primary dates rather than the candidates who played by the rules of the party.

I have nothing against Hillary Clinton. I voted for her husband twice. If it wasn't for Barack Obama, the nomination would be hers. However, Barack Obama is an exceptional leader than is needed at this time.

Hi all and Greetings

I am pround of all the democrats throughout the US for turning out in record numbers. This is a historic event and no one should miss out on being part of this. Moreso we have two canidates that are clearly qualified and ready for a clean battle of politics (Bush should take notes)for the road leading to the white house. I personnaly don't feel that the other side has a canidate that can hold a candle to the two democrates running. I really don't care who win out of Clinton or Oboma but for God sake just let it me one of us.

Another Republican has been sentenced in the Rep. Randy Cunningham case. This time it's a New York mortgage broker, John Michael, who laundered the money from the defense contractor to the Republican congressman. He'll be sentenced in May, which makes one less Republican voting in November. Let's get them all in jail.

REMEMBER, NO ONE DIED WHEN BILL LIED, LETS ALL GET BEHIND HILLARY TO GET HER ELECTED PRESIDENT.

I strongly feel the delegates from Michigan and Florida should be seated at the convention. It's the only way to treat the residents of those states and allow their voices to be heard. Apportion the delegates to the candidates based upon the votes that were cast. That's fair to everyone. In this life, we don't get re-do's, and any other method would create huge animosity on either side.

The Democratic Party is split and fractured. There's no way that you can say it's not. True, so is the Republican Party, but you guys (politicians) are so busy playing politics that you forget there's real people out here.

I sought out this website because I want to voice my opinion on what's going on in FL and MI. Now if all candidates signed a letter promising not to campaign in these states, and the states were punished for moving up their primaries, why does this "promise" even now come back into play?

Since the race is so tight, which disgusts me, I suggest a "re-vote" for everyone involved. Give the states AND candidates 30 days (whatever the time-frame, just do it sooner than closer to November) to prepare for it. Give the states time to print new ballots, contact election judges, etc., and give each candidate the same time to actually campaign in the states. Then hold a full primary so the people get to vote, and it be counted, and the candidates get to discuss their issues with the people.

All of this court nonsense and bickering is making me sick. This is the kind of stuff why people aren't interested in the political process, and they are right now having passionate discussions about the issues.

On a side note, the Clintons are clearly cheating in every direction. Please follow the money she claims to suddenly have, and suddenly "loaned". It should have been a donation, just like her supporters, so please follow that money. Do not allow her to steal this election. This country will be torn apart, along with the rest of the world who's watching.

This is my major concerns and I hope these things are considered. It would be pure turmoil if this country thinks that Sen. Obama was somehow robbed of this election by a Clinton of all people. It would disenfranchise voters for far many more years than we have life left, because this election is about the children, and lots of them are actually voting and engaging in and this election.

Wow! Interesting discussion.

I am a conservative who voted for Bush twice and Bill twice before that. I am SURPRISED that the Democratic Party-- the LIBERAL party, is dividing along these racial and gender lines.

Hopefully, you still believe in FAIRNESS! Does the end justify the means? CERTAINLY NOT! I do not see how you can set the rules in MI and FL and then change them to suit your preference for a nominee.

We teach our children not to cheat, so how can anyone support this method of cheating. Please explain to me how this is morally upright.

You are really asking for a BIG problem if this happens. Since Edwards and Obama removed their names from the ballots, they clearly we willing to abide by the rules, thus proving they were not hungry enough to WIN AT ALL COST!

I don't think I can trust Hillary if she cheats in such an OBVIOUS way.

I agree that Senator Obama is the reason folks are going to the polls. I do believe Senator Obama needs to be the candidate based on his leaderhip, intellect, judgment and wisdom. Plus, he is an attraction choice for independents and republicans.

I will be unable to vote for HRC as I do not trust her judgment. She cannot manage a campaign budget so how can she manage the federal budget. Her decision to not pay workers while she has the personal resources indicates her manical interest in becoming President. Folks who support her must have Selective Clinton Amnesia. She failed at health care because she does not pocess the slill-sets required for collaboration or consensus-building. She voted for the war in Iraq and continues to fail responsibility for that action.

The DNC should devote resources to the Clinton Presidential Library so all of her supposed experinece can be in full public view.

As a NYer, I know she was not vetted. NY politicians who refer to her as the favorite daughter do not speak for me.

I could easily, happily and responsibly pull the lever for a republican as I will not vote for her. I am not alone. DNC needs to hear this.

Thank you JohnAnthony! And why isn't the media looking into how they made their money?

Public servants should NOT have a problem with that. You do not get $40 million from book sales.

If she wants to turn a new leaf and play fair, go ahead and disclose her tax returns, BEFORE securing the democratic nomination!

She is such a FAKE and I can hardly take it anymore, pretending to help me while using their (I say their because it will be a co-presidencY)
power to secure their financial future and influence.

Hi Folks, Lets all remember no one died when Bill
lied, Lets all get behind Hillary and get her elected to be our next President.

I'm amazed that you don't list the record turnout in Florida and Michigan as well. The democrats and independents in these states are just as passionate about wanting change and electing a president that will take this country in a new direction. By continuing to silence their voice, you not only cheat the American people of their votes, you cheat them once again, like in 2000, of the candidate who is winning in popular votes. I fear that by not seating the delegates for Florida and Michigan, you are dividing the party. I'm also not convinced that all of the Hillary Clinton supporters will naturally follow Barack Obama, as he claims, should he become the candidate. The people of Michigan and Florida have spoken. Who is the Democratic party is going to listen?

All you Obama supporters out there, what does he really stand for? In every debate, in every rally I've seen of him, and I've been following a lot of them, he gives no substance! He's a cheerleader in a pep rally. Once the rally is over, what's he going to do? He doesn't have foriegn policy experience, he doesn't take a stand on votes. He doesn't get MY vote. I've voting for Hillary Clinton, just like the people of Michigan and Florida who are being disenfranchized did, because she has what this country needs. I find it a crying shame that the democratic party would silence voters who came out in record numbers to vote for their candidate. If Florida and Michigan delegates were reinstatement, the frontrunner would be clear and there would be no fear of the democratic party losing ground.

The sad thing is, despite no one campaigning in Michigan and Florida, VOTERS took it upon themselves to get out and vote. Now the Democratic Party doesn't want to recognize those votes. Sounds shady to me. If those delegates aren't seated, you can bet the Democratic party will lose those states in November.

I'm voting for Hillary Clinton in November. Period. If the Democratic party is divided in November, they only have themselves to blame for the foolish decision to disenfranchize voters.

Who's generating this overwhelming Democratic primary/caucus enthusiasm? It's not Clinton. It's Obama.

Obama appeals to Democrats AND independents, swing voters, and REPUBLICANS!!! (like my husband.) Independents and swing voters win elections.

If Superdelegates choose Clinton over Obama, they'll create another election like 2004, where only party regulars voted for Kerry.

McCain does well with independents. Only Obama can slow that down.

One of the most important debates we must have is that about national health care. This life and death issue affects, or is affected by the economy, the Iraq war, and our ability to compete with those nations that do have such care.

The only candidate to date remaining in the campaign that has any idea of how important this issue is and who has some idea as to the specifics has to how to accomplish it is Senator Clinton. Senator Obama needs to catch up to the significance of this issue to be a viable candidate as far as this nurse is concerned.

This opinion comes as a result of my experiences as an RN working in a Detroit inner city hospital on an acute care floor and at a skilled nursing home in Cleveland, Ohio. My patients have been the poor, the elderly, and/or African Americans. Senator Obama's plan seems to leave these people out if it does not embrace universal care.

Sincerely;
Charles Bombaugh

I am very up set about the comments made by people on MSNBC about the Clinton's very uncalled
for,the last guy should be fired.

YOOBYIE,

I watched Countdown with Keith Olbermann and found out that David Shuster was suspended. Keith then apologized immersely for David's comments. Anyway guys, we have to stop our infighting and unite no matter who is the nominee and fast. Because if we keep this up, those Right wing Republicans will win again like they did in 1980. We were too busy fighting with other and Ronald Reagan beat us. We can't let this happen again. Everyone unite to beat the Republicans.

I'm going to have to re-post this as I seemed to have sent the original to the wrong place.
As I said I have always opposed the war in Iraq.
Having gone to school with an Iraqian friend of mine I knew we had only a small window of time to put the Iraqian government in order before we had a real mess. I was distressed by Senator Clinton's vote to give Bush the authority to make such a move.
That being said I believe it to be a cheap shot to attack her for her vote. Her state and her city had been repeatedly attacked with the cost of several thousand lives. She could not have voted "no".
Had the city of Chicago been also been attacked in a like manner Senator Obama would not have had the option to vote "no" or even "present". For better or worse sometimes you have to take a stand. It is time to get over it and concentrate on how we get out of this Republican night-mare.
So grow up Senator Obama and Mr. Moore.
Sincerely;
Charles Bombaugh RN

Please Dear Lord,
Do not let us fall into the hands of Change. Change that is only for the selfish will to govern our country and diminish our beliefs and values. There are those that support Change, only to help themselves. The glamorous, the young, the bitter do not know the impact of their support towards Change. Let us follow the narrow path.
Amen

Barack Obama's speech in Virginia today was absolutely wonderful.

DO not take this level of participation for granted! If it comes down to super-delegates and the democrats do not try their best to back the will of the voters, future voter turnout will again decline back to the pathetic levels of the past. Young voters want to feel that their votes matter. If it comes down to super-delegates who ignore the will of voters, I and a number of friends will never waste our time voting democrat again. I resisted voting for Ralph Nadar as I believed my vote to matter. The only reason I cast a democratic ballot was because both candidates claimed it mattered. If it comes down to party fat cats, I will forever be a true independent. If one candidate clearly gets more votes, the other should step down in order to preserve this elevated voter turn-out. Which is more important? Personal ambitions or a strengthened Democratic Party? If voters feel that their vote matters then they will turnout if they feel it doesn't they won't. As a student on campus I have already heard the sentiments of these young voters and many of these students fear that a candidate will be decided in back-rooms. Many have expressed that if its decided in such a way they will never, "waste time voting again."

When hillary made her first acceptance speech she said,"The first thing I will do when I reach the floor of the Senate is pass election reform." That was 7 years ago. Why does anyone believe you will get anything different from her. We have a $10M mess in WA. The 'massive turn out' was Obama supporters. Will the DNC take a stand and tell the American People what is going to happen?
We are really not sure that Obama will 'win' WA.

I can't understand why more women are not voting for Hillary. The men have been running the American machine since the inception, and let's face it, they have not done such a great job lately. Hillary fits all aspects of an American woman: student, working professional, mother, devoted spouse, faithful in her religion, served her country and made difficult choices for the good of the middle class. No more rhetoric, please. Intelligence and experience! Hillary is the one to save this country. And about the war, why did Obama not vote with the others...is he so connected to the moslem community?

I hope as a party we are not reading too much into this large increase in voting this year
because i feel that the increase in the democratic
voting has a direct correlation with the dropoff
in the republican party.
If you will notice obama is getting all the
black votes which is reasonable; but the polls say he is getting a lot of educated white male
voters while clinton is getting the female voters
especially the older group.
Take the supposed educated white male voters:
suppose they are republican voters pretending to be disgruntled and supposedly independents voting in the democratic primaries and caucases.
obama and even clinton could be getting some of the votes but when it gets down to the election come november they will be full fledged
republicans once more just as they have been all
the other years and the dems will be setting there
red faced and wondering where all our voters were
when it counted.
sure obama will get the black vote but you can be assured he will not get the republican vote. same for hillary.
there have been so many republicans voting in the democratic side that they have messed around and gotten a candidate that only about half
are satisfied with but by november he will be the
greatest thing that ever came along.
WE HAVE BEEN DOWN THIS ROAD BEFORE.
I CAN SEE IT PLAYING OUT RIGHT ON KEY ALL
THE REPUBLICANS RETURN HOME TO VOTE WHEN IT COUNTS

HOPEFULLY I'M WRONG AND WE CAN WIN
IT BACK BUT THEY HAVE IT ALL SET UP FOR MCCAIN.

My father is a Bush Administration supporter and has been since the first bush. I expressed interest to opening the US to new ideas of interpreting and using the constitution, running the country with overall welfare of all citizens in mind, and introducing someone with integrity (not hillary- see "Hillary" by Dick Morris at DickMorris.com) to the executive position. I of course, am talking about Obama. Obama is an honest man who is not responsible for fund raising fraud on multiple occasions. The news keep reading, well, Obama should win this state, due to the increased African American population. I'm tired of that. I'm voting for Obama because he is the ideas of honesty and change we've been looking for. I'm sure many agree, the idea of experience, that hillary has in the white house, is ludacris. If Obama had that experience Clinton had, I wouldn't want him in office. However, he plays by the rules, records his donations properly, and holds himself accountable for his actions. He will not deny to me or the American public the truth when he makes a mistake. His experience might be the experience we need for people to drop the bars Republican and Democrat and worry about the over all well being of the population.

People have stated they wouldn't donate if money were possibly going to one candidate or the other. The Democratic party will not see any of my money unless Barrack is accepted because I cannot knowledgeably give my money to the downfall of the democratic party. In 8 years with Hillary as president, this party will be as drained and detested by people as the republican party now.

PLEASE DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN, STAND WITH ME FOR CHANGE!

As usual Democrats are playing in to the hands of the Republicans and dont even know it. The steam rolling effect Obama and his campaign have right now are the direct results of a bias media.
A media which is controlled by Republican fatcats. They are pushing Obama because they no he will be the easy target in the war of discreditation to come. He will not say the pledge, will not salute the flag, his father was muslim, he avoids votes on controversial matters in the senate, and his views of whites when he was younger. Nothing galvanizes the right wing Republicans more than a candidate they see as UNAMERICAN and a threat to there way of life. Not to mention that like it or not many people even democrats will cross party lines and vote for McCain if he is nominated. This coupled with the voters in Florida and Michigan who are so pissed off about the primary circumstances that they have vowed to cross party lines and vote the other way because of there treatment. I'm not sure how many of you very young Obama dweebs were old enough to remember but Florida swang both of the last elections, and played a pivotal part of Bill Clinton being elected to two terms. So go ahead and snub your noses at them they will get the last laugh in the general election. I am 41 years old and will not vote for Obama, neither will any of my friends the same age. So go ahead and call for party unity if he is nominated it is falling on deaf ears in the age group he can not seem to register a victory in 40-65 and older. Those votes along with the votes of independents and moderates who are voting for Clinton will swing to McCain just like the Republicans are expecting and you will be left with that mouth open dumb look on your face you have had for the last eight years that Bush won. Get smart and nominate the electable candidate whos dirt they and you for that matter are slinging at her was her husbands not hers! Go Hillary!!!!!!!!!

If the Democrats want to win this election we should have Obama runing for President and Hillary fo Vice-President. This is serious. It's not about race or gender- It's about America. We have to save this Country. Otherwise we will have a third term. And we don't want that. Please! Listen to our heart. I know it's not easy But we have to win this election. Obama cannot do it by himself neither Hillary . We have to reunite our citizens and win this election. Think about that for the sake of !!!! AMERICA !!!!!
