"""This is a huge positive for Obama. The superdelegates receiving donations are Democratic candidates for the House, the Senate or Governor.
Obama did all he could to help Democrats take back the Senate and the House in 2006, including tons of fundraising and more campaign appearances than any other Democrat.
Hillary selfishly raised and spent money mainly for herself on her own Senate race, despite the fact that she faced only token opposition. As a big fundraiser, she could have aided the Democratic party efforts to win back Congress with tens of millions of dollars. Instead, she used her funds to increase her margin of victory (pointless) and to build up a war chest to scare any other potential candidates for the presidency out of the race (a failed effort).

The picture chosen to represent this article, one of David Shuster smiling and Hillary whom you try to represent as mean, calculated and course, is the exact reason why we need a woman president.
Thanks for reminding us that sexism is alive and well and much more prevelant (and acceptable) in this country than racism is.
Thanks for reminding us the media bias and slant and self loathing representing through the usual "clinton hate" that is out there.
Hillary '08

Sorry but no, this is total BS.
Obama is an empty suit. Here is a list of his qualities that seem to have won over so many.
1)great orator
2) charismaok, I'm done with my list!
The republicans will eat him alive before he even knows what hit him. Hillary has spent 15 yrs dealing with these asshats on the right and she's prepared and willing to fight. Obama is not a fighter. No one... NO ONE ever reports on this guys actual resume, in business, in politics, or his life.. he's led a rather comfortable easy life and has no clue what he's in for.
Everyone elected Bush because they thought he'd be a great guy to have a beer with... well, how'd that work out for ya?
Barack has spent 1 yr in Washington and 1 yr campaign.. the arrogance of someone who thinks they can run this country after 1 yr in Washington.. then we have the bias media that handles him with kid gloves and who seems to feel Hillary can do nothing right.
It appears McCain will be their candidate and seriously he's just so pathetic, either of the Dems will take him down easily.. but Obama has no right to have this election handed to him.
Now all the men out there who support Obama who say they aren't male chauvinist, who say they can take a woman, 'just not this woman'.. I say take a good look in the mirror. Let's compare what Hillary was doing at 20 to what you (or Obama) was doing at 20.. or 25, or 30.. She had a great education and was gifted, she didn't have to go into the direction of serving families and children.
Yes she's a go getter, driven, probably bossy, and a take charge kind of person.. well, have you noticed in the debates how often Obama stutters or won't look her in the eye? I mean seriously, how can you not see how prepared this woman is to take over? If we don't elect a woman now (who happens to be the most qualified person of both campaigns aside from McCain), then it will be 50 yrs or more before we have the opportunity again. You say that doesn't matter? Well I say you've never worked at a job where you found out you were getting paid less than a man doing the same job, who happened to need your help because they weren't succeeding as you were.. You've never been a single parent trying to raise a kid and every penny counts, working hard late into the night only to be fired by a male boss because you wouldn't allow a customer to grope you between the legs as you walked by..
You have no clue how important this is to many of us..
I tuned into cspan earlier and after Hillary's amazing speech, the crowds were screaming for her and reaching for autographs.. all during this cspan was taking callers.. of the approx 7 to 10 I heard, there were 4, 2 men and 2 women who said they are republicans and voting for Hillary. All the callers said shes' the most exp, they trust her with the economy,.. another said he trusted her to handle the world turmoil we're in at the minute.
Days ago Tom Brokaw was at a round table.. I think it was during Fla elec.. he commented that some die hard repub friends of his said they are seriously willing to consider voting for Hillary this time.. (in so many words he stated) that they were saying after 8 yrs of this amount of incompetence, they thought Hillary was truly the person who could handle the mess we are leaving in the hands of the next president.. They told him they are willing (this time) to set aside personal policy preferences, in exchange for someone just competent who could run this country.
I think they've found their woman.
The adoration for Hillary that is out there, you'll never see on the biased cable news network.. It is all Obama all the time.. They handle him with kid gloves and trash and sneer Hillary (or Bill) at every opportunity.. They never get into actual political facts that matter. (That) is intentional on their part, they don't want the masses to know this guy is an empty suit.
One last thing. Carolyn Kennedy got into this whole Obama craze because her kids begged her to! Is that a good reason or way to pick a president!
We dealt with kool aid drinking Bush sheep for 7 1/2 yrs, now we're going thru it again with Obama sheep.. Unbelievable!
and if you don't get the kool aid reference, then you must be so young you don't remember Jim Jones.
thank you!
