    Re: Can Hillary stop Barack?

    She threatens them with being exposed to the same attacks she has tried to use against Senator Obama. Name calling (Richardson, as "Judas"), belittling (Senators Kerry and Kennedy of Massachusetts...

    Re: Can Hillary stop Barack?

    She has one sure fire technique to keep this going to the convention and that is to threaten potential Obama-supporting superdelegates. As she made clear with Bill Richardson, anyone who supports...

    Re: Hillary and Iraq at 3AM

    Sorry to interrupt the discussion of the definition of conservative, but in many ways, isn't Senator Obama the most conservative candidate in the race, at least, as far as Iraq (and Iran) goes. While...

    Re: Bill Clinton in Fort Wayne

    Certainly, he used NAFTA to cool down the impeachment fire but he also used it as a major accomplishment in campaign speeches, especially against Ross Perot who opposed the agreement (of the "giant...

    Cheney is arrogant, secretive, possibly sinister, but he has been consistent from, here comes that magic phrase, DAY ONE. He has shown utter contempt for what the American...

    Re: Obama's candidacy

    Of course, political rhetoric is not going to cease being negative as long as it works. That's why this election will be so important in influencing political debate for years to come. After all, we...

    Re: Hillary and Iraq at 3AM

    Fair enough, I'm not a big fan of John Kerry myself. My point was that waffling on something as critical as a war, namely the Iraq War, will prove fatal in a general election, especially against war...

    Re: Bill Clinton in Fort Wayne

    As an Obama supporter, I am a big fan of FORMER (I wrote it in caps as some people seem to appreciate this word) President Clinton. He was a reasonably good President, but he is a great campaigner...

    Re: Hillary and Iraq at 3AM

    Back to the issue of judgment and experience, recently released (finally!) papers by the former first lady indicate that she had little or nothing to do with Kosovo or the Northern Ireland Peace...

    Re: Obama's candidacy

    I think the most important thing about Senator Obama's campaign has been his ability to bring people together. Of course, Republicans and Democrats are not going to agree on everything but we need to...

    Re: Bill Clinton in Fort Wayne

    Did you hear former President Clinton's interview of late?
    He mentioned that HE was working tirelessly for his candidate.
    HE got a "bum rap" in South Carolina.
    HE was only responding to Obama's...

    Re: Bill Clinton in Fort Wayne

    Yes, I'm pretty sure it's a recruitment attempt on the part of the Republicans for Clinton movement (sometimes called the Hillaricans). It's a growing movement (3 members at last check) that has...

    Kimmell and NAFTA

    Re: Bill Clinton in Fort Wayne

    Well, I suppose he's welcome to come bu I hope he keeps his mouth shut for Hillary's sake. Every time, he makes a major pronouncement, it seems Obama shoots up in the polls.

    Re: Hillary and Iraq at 3AM

    I'm not exactly sure what FaffUp is getting at but to me, one thing is clear: Sen. Obama was opposed to the war in Iraq in 2002, when September 11 was still fresh in people's memories and war fever...

    If we are talking about costly spending, look no further than the Iraq war, the biggest government "entitlement program" of all. And, as today's newspaper reported, it will only get more expensive....

    Does anyone know if Obama is really planning to visit Fort Wayne in May? I would love to see him come. I have seen him on TV ad nauseum but would love to see him in the flesh (nothing perverse...
