    I don't think they're buying that free gas tax bs either - the experts were all over it.

    Did any of you see the clips from Countdown showing Hillary trying to work the coffee machine at a local store & it was a disaster? Just f-ing sad!


    She doesn't even know how to pour herself a cup of coffee!! (Major Eyeroll)

    I didn't see that, but I saw her talking her her cell phone while the regular family was driving her. He looked more like her chauffer.

    andyfrombrooklyn,


    I think you missed Samantha Power. She's the one who called Hillary a monster. I understand she paints a poor picture of Bill Clinton's response to genocide in Rwanda in her book...they had to get rid of her. But, Samantha helped them.

    Haha Jack. It's not over yet people! But we can still vote Green or Libertarian or do a write in if necessary. We can take back our country bit by bit, esp. because it was build from our labor.

    In the late 90's, Jimma Hoffa and the Teamsters wrote and phoned the Clintons, begging them NOT to sign a trade agreement, arguing that it would be bad for American business and the American worker. The Clintons never returned a phone call or answered their letter. Now, the Chinese work children for 12 hours for only a few dollars a day. They make poisonous toys,and toothpaste and jewelry and shoddy goods. A few multi-national corporations like Wal-Mart make a ton of money. But, by and large, this hurts the American workers and businesses. The sorry MSM is too lazy and too connected to these businesses to show how they're hurting the American people. Better to go for the more combative, sexsy issues like Rev. Wright's angst against Barack Obama.


    The ironic thing is that Clintons laid the foundation for this; and the Teamsters haven't forgotten. That's why they're supporting Obama.



    To find out just how hypocritical Hillary is being about this, all the press has to do is talk to Teamster officials, to Hoffa himself. They still have the letters they wrote the Clintons. I saw one on their website. But the sorry corporate media want do it, because they want Clinton to win. It's basically right-wing.

    From Blacks4Barack...THE BLACK VOTE IS THE KEY THIS TUESDAY !!!The media thinks that blacks are absolutely stupid. They've been watching the powerful solidarity in the black community during this campaign and they're hoping we're stupid enough to lose focus and become divided over the media created Rev. Wright situation. Keep in mind....in Pa. 92% of all black voters voted for Obama. That's powerful ! Only one problem....not enough registered black voters actually voted !!!! This Tuesday...May 6th....EVERY Black voter MUST VOTE in N. Carolina and Indiana !!!!! BECOME A VOLUNTEER....MAKE PHONE CALLS....TAKE SOMEONE TO THE POLLS....CARPOOL...This Tuesday, the most important vote will be the black vote. When we go out in record numbers, the DNC and superdelegates will know that we are united for Obama...and the Re-Birth of America. This is it ! It is your responsibilty to GET FIRED UP !!!! Not only for yourself....but for the future of your children.
    p.s. Hillary Clinton has still not made a comment on the Sean Bell killing which occured in her state.



    Visit: www.Blacks4Barack.org for Phone Bank Volunteer (make calls from your home)info and Much More ! Over this weekend...send comments everywhere (particularly Indiana & N.Carolina)to get our people fired up !!!!



    Say It Loud...BARACK & I'M PROUD !!!

    A surprise superdelegate endorsement in Indiana. A HUGE surprise:


    DNC Chair under Bill Clinton Switches to Obama



    Andrew said in his letter that he is switching his support because "a vote for Hillary Clinton is a vote to continue this process, and a vote to continue this process is a vote that assists (Republican) John McCain."



    "While I was hopeful that a long, contested primary season would invigorate our party, the polls show that the tone and temperature of the race is now hurting us," Andrew wrote. "John McCain, without doing much of anything, is now competitive against both of our remaining candidates. We are doing his work for him and distracting Americans from the issues that really affect all of our lives."



    (...)



    "He has shown such mettle under fire," Andrew said in the interview. "The Jeremiah Wright controversy just reconfirmed for me, just as the gas tax controversy confirmed for me, that he is the right candidate for our party."







    Finally, someone with testicular fortitude speaks out.

    Obama has fallen behind Clinton in NC in the latest poll (in addition to lagging in double digits in the latest national poll).


    If he can't take NC (while likely losing Indiana), forget it. It's over.

    Gee. Would it be equally "powerful" if 92% of white voters voted for the white candidate?

    Craig,


    I read that letter early this morning. Isn't it something, my favourite part is:



    Only a cynic would be critical of Barack Obama inspiring millions. Only the uninformed could forget that the candidate that wins in November is always the candidate that inspires millions.



    and at the end where he says everyone is welcome in the Democratic party. I wonder if he's alluding to the sense among African Americans that they are no longer be welcome in the Democratic party if Hillary is nominated? After all, to nominate her would be to underwrite every racially divisive tactic she used. The Democratic party has always been a "home" for AA's...that would be no more.



    I don't know what people like Bayh are thinking. Maybe they genuinely don't understand. Perhaps that was the motive behind Clyburn's speaking out now...to make people like him aware! Anyone who insists that Democrats continue this fight do not have their interests at heart.



    Regardless of the outcome of these last contests, the leadership will have to make the decision. There's no avoiding it.
