I am not Hillary support. I feel sad for the way the media mistreat her campaign and afraid to voice any negative opinions about Obama. May be I miss something here.
Hillary did NOT win more votes. Here in Iowa throngs of people turned out for Obama on caucus night. Hillary is not counting any of the caucus states.
I am delighted with him. I initially wanted Hillary but when she started the dirty campaigning and Bill started to be Bozo Bill instead of the guy we loved, I knew Obama was the only one who really stood for change.
Obama's public charisma --well I have not seen it in my life time. He may not know how Washington works--but this is a plus for an agent of change. He is smart, articulate and knows how to form an argument without making fun of the other person. (As McCain had to last night.)
Obama kept his campaign clean through good times and bad---he will win Iowa and other swing states. I hope Hillary and her bunch do not have to keep reframing the truth to make her look victimized. Every time I turned on CNN (which was daily) the discussion was "what does Hillary need to do to win?" How racist! Why was it not "what does Obama need to do to keep his lead."
Now nobody can insist Hillary admit she is out of the race because nobody wants to hurt her feelings?? Oh, come on. I have never heard of that, either. Sexist!
The American Public does not know how lucky they are to have Obama. Poor David Letterman. What is he going to feature in "Great presidential speeches" now that we have a guy who can not only speak well, he can think at the same time.
Obama carries a lot of negative baggage (Wright, Michelle's comments, etc.). BUT Obama is the Dems and media's darling and pushed him as their nominee.
If elected, his plans for the United States will make Jimmy Carter look like George Washington. I don't want to live in a socialized society and that's the road Obama will take us.
Congratulations to Obama! While both parties and their candidates are undoubtedly controlled by the "global elite", Obama represents at least a possibility for real change. Hillary and Bill had there chance for 8 years. They were horrible at forwarding the American ideals of real freedom for all mankind, Bush was even worse. Good luck Mr. Obama - here's to busting the ever tightening grip of the police state.
