I think personality is more important unless you are looking for a trophy to be seen with...lol ..That said...What good is a "trophy" with a bad personality?
Your Hillary is the one who caters to illegals and has the "uneducated" people that make low wages dear! They are the ones one welfare in most cases. Obama has the college educated and people with higher wages supporting him overwhelmingly.
You seem like the uneducated supporters to me..
You going to vote McCain?
Take a look at this...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLQGWpRVA7o
I would also like to add that maybe she doesn't know when to give up and doesn't see that if she needs to donate millions to her campaign that she really doesn't have all the support she thought she had.
Not only that...she being a millionare excepts a childs money to help pay her debt off...How maternal.
I see her encouraging her supporters to be angry and not support her party if she does not get the nomination and that just tells me that she is selfish and Hillary cares about only herself.
Obama is winning fair and square and was gracious enough to comprimise with MI and FL. Does she really think it is fair to count popular votes when in those states he did not get to campaign and one he was not even on the ballot?? How can she have that argument and then turn around and want to discredit the votes in the caucus states.. She needs to get real!
Yes prncss4someone, she does not know how to pass the torch on with grace and proves to be a sore loser when she is losing. Not very admirable....
I admire the fact that at least you are not saying you would vote for McCain instead. I don't know why you would not vote for Obama or one of the independents though to at least have a vote against McCain though?? Every vote against McCain is a vote against Bush policy.
Obama continued to pad his lead Monday, picking up an endorsement from Sen. Robert Byrd, the longest-serving senator in American history.
Byrd, 90, has been a West Virginia senator for nearly 50 years, and is one of the chamber's most vocal critics of the war in Iraq.
Clinton won the primary in West Virginia last week, defeating Obama by a 41-point margin.
Byrd, who is a superdelegate, said his decision came "after a great deal of thought, consideration and prayer over the situation in Iraq."
Obama also picked up an endorsement Monday from Larry Gates, the chairman of the Kansas Democratic Party. Gates is also a superdelegate.
The latest Gallup daily tracking poll suggests Democratic voters are beginning to coalesce around Obama.
He holds a 16-point lead over Clinton in Gallup's daily tracking poll released Monday. He has the support of 55 percent of Democratic and Democratic-leaning voters, while Clinton's support is at 39 percent.
Previously, Obama's largest lead over Clinton was 11 percentage points, in daily tracking polls conducted in mid-May and mid-April, according to Gallup. Before John Edwards' exit from the Democratic nomination race, Clinton held a 20-point lead over Obama in mid-January.
The results are based on a survey of 1,261 Democratic and Democratic-leaning voters using combined data from May 16-18. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.
Clinton and Obama face off Tuesday in Kentucky and Oregon. Clinton holds a comfortable lead in Kentucky, while Obama is the favored candidate in Oregon.
Those two states are expected to do little more than illustrate the divide between Democratic voters in selecting a presidential candidate.
Kentucky is dominated by working-class voters, which has been a source of support for Clinton throughout the prolonged primary season.
Obama's base of support -- young and higher-educated voters -- are better represented in Oregon.
(CNN) -- As Barack Obama targeted John McCain in his attacks Monday, Hillary Clinton told her supporters the race for the Democratic nomination is "nowhere near over."
Sen. Barack Obama blasted John McCain's views on foreign policy Monday.
1 of 2 Obama and McCain blasted each other's views on foreign policy, with McCain slamming Obama's statement that Iran poses a less serious threat to the United States than the Soviet Union did.
Obama shot back during a speech in Billings, Montana, and asked why the presumptive Republican presidential nominee was afraid to talk to Iran.
Obama said it was the "Bush-McCain" war policy in Iraq, not diplomacy, that would make Iran stronger.
"Make no mistake, Iran is the single biggest beneficiary of a war in Iraq that should have never been authorized and should have never been waged," the front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination said. Watch Obama respond to McCain »
"Thanks to George Bush's policy, Iran is the greatest threat to the United States and Israel and the Middle East for a generation. John McCain wants to double down on that failed policy." Watch what McCain says about Obama »
Meanwhile, Clinton again vowed to keep her campaign alive, telling a crowd in Maysville, Kentucky, "I'm going to make my case until we have a nominee."
"But we're not going to have one today, and we're not going to have one tomorrow, and we're not going to have one the next day.

Clinton believes neither candidate will have the necessary 2,210 delegates by the last primary on June 3, the number she says is needed because she argues Michigan's and Florida's delegates must be counted. How CNN political analysts view the primaries »

Buffett is supporting Obama. (CNN) — Warren Buffett, a longtime friend of both Hillary and Bill Clinton, told CNN Monday Barack Obama would be his choice for the next President of the United States.
Speaking with CNN's Becky Anderson, the billionaire investor said he would gladly vote for either candidate, but said it is clear the senator from Illinois will be the party's nominee.
"So it would be Barack Obama, — would be my preference," Buffett said.
Buffett had refused to take sides in the prolonged Democratic presidential race. The Nebraska Democrat hosted million dollar fundraisers for both last summer, and had previously held back on endorsing one over the other. Though he reportedly said at the Clinton fundraiser that the New York senator is "the person to run the country."
Buffett also has offered Clinton informal advice on the economy, and the two led a question-and-answer session about the economy with voters at a San Francisco campaign event in December.
Buffett, the world's richest man according to Forbes Magazine, runs Omaha-based Berkshire Hathaway Inc. The company's assets total more than $260 billion.
May 19, 2008 Clinton cites Karl Rove as reason to stay in Posted: 04:45 PM ET
From CNN Political Producer Alexander Marquardt
Hillary Clinton campaigns in Kentucky Monday ahead of the states primary. PRESTONSBURG, Kentucky (CNN) – Hillary Clinton defended her reasoning for staying in the presidential race Monday afternoon by pointing out that Karl Rove's analysis shows her to be the strongest candidate against John McCain in November.
“There has been a lot of analysis about which of us is stronger to win against Sen. McCain, and I believe I am the stronger candidate,” said Clinton, repeating a line from her stump speech.
Then she veered from her usual argument.
“Just today I found some curious support for that position when one of the TV networks released an analysis done by - of all people - Karl Rove, saying that I was the stronger candidate,” said Clinton. “Somebody go a hold of his analysis and there it is.”
Clinton was referring to electoral maps drawn up by Karl Rove’s consulting firm that were obtained by ABC and forecast her currently leading McCain in the electoral college by 53 votes (259-206), while Obama trails McCain by 17 (238-221)
270 electoral votes are needed to win November’s election.
Clinton continued to push for Florida and Michigan’s delegates to be seated but said that even if that happens, the race won’t be over.
“Once we include Florida and Michigan, neither Sen. Obama nor I will have enough delegates to get the nomination so there is no way that this is going to end any time soon because we’re going to keep fighting for the nomination.”
At least he isn't hallucinating about sniper fire 3 times..lol It was pretty obvious he was very tired. Unlike Hillary who seemed to be wide awake when she stated on three occasions that she ducked sniper fire.
I found a couple videos of Obama "before" he ever considered running for president and I have to say that I believe in his integrity even more. This guy hasn't changed his message and has been very consistent.
Next door neighbors. Been hearing about the protests for weelks and possible boycotts and they rename the area. Essecially the same area the Chinese have been in the news for oppressong for weeks and nobody seems to say boo! I say...Flock China and say we pay their and all the other countries that we owe back and reclaim our country! We can do it eventually...if we don't we are Rome..lol
OH NOOOOOO!! You haven't read my other posts then. I would rather see jobs here than other countries and the independent businesses. There are some things that are in demand that yes..we could make here and we could have a competition between them. But as far as our golden eggs manufacturing that people say I like that "American made" stuff. We do all ourselves. Medicine too!
They are outsourcing medicine and people are dying..Come On! We import many insignificant items yet important from China. We have Mexicans crossing the borders in droves to be here because of jobs. Let them produce what we let China as far as inoculous stuff.
We need to take out base back too. I would rather give a Mexican a reason to stay in their own country that to come up here and take one of our jobs than give jobs to a country such as China who is REALLY not trustworthy..just me though...
Yeah but....I would rather spend a little more money to buy something of quality that will last. LOL..people talk about the environment. Wouldn't the environment be better off if they made stuff to last instead of break down and then you'd have alot less junk?
