		<description>Hillary Clinton gave it a good try, but the dream is over.  She will wake up to the reality that everyone else knows is true--she tried but it just didn't work out.  Maybe in 2012? : )</description>

		<description>It is time to unite this country.  Perhaps it is best that Hillary Clinton step down from the presidential race, as she divides the country, and is not the type of person to best represent "women" or even Americans.

Yet, in all fairness, Obama should likewise step down due to his lack of experience.  Speeches and good intensions (if in fact they are good) does not make one presidential material.

John McCain cares for this country.  Hehas experience, and while he's more liberal than my politics, he would do much to bring this country together.  Anyone who knows his record knows that he obviously is not another George W. Bush.  He is his own person, a political Maveric.  He has served this country and is the most qualified candidate of the three to truly be considered the next president of these United States.

He is not the candidate of men or of women or of whites or of blacks or any other demographic you would propose to fill in the blank.  He is truly for all Americans, and I hope citizens will stand back from looking to choose a candidate who shares her / his skin color or her / his gender.  It should not be a beauty contest, or a time to affirm which demographic you identify with.  It isn't a test of how charismatic your personality is.  We are seeking one to serve this great nation, bringing experience, ability to get along with others, and vision to the table.  Not just one of these qualities.  And also, someone who can be trusted, based on what we know of their past.  If the wrong candidate becomes president, our lives, and our children--the future--will be effected.  Let's give McCain a chance.  Isn't the future of this country worth it?</description>

		<description>Wow!  Almost 3 months have gone by since this letter was written and she's still hanging in there!  After last nights big loss in NC and the "squeak by" in Indiana I think it's inevitable.  If Hillary cares anything about the democratic party, if she cares anything about this country, if she cares anything about what is good and what is true, SHE WILL DROP OUT IMMEDIATELY!!!  Sadly, I don't think she does care about any of those things, she only cares about her ego, therefore she's going to drag this thing out, make a joke out of our party and send the McCain's laughing all the way to the White House. 

ARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!  This makes me so ANGRY!  Why can't somebody go and shake her?  I mean honestly now, what is her plan?  I hate to think so badly of her but she leaves me no choice. She's planning on staying in the race and continuing to smear Obama's name, threaten his support, and make America, or at least the super-delegates, afraid to support him.  She's just waiting it out, certain that Reverend Wright will say some more controversial things that she and the media can try to link to Obama as if he said them himself.  I'm to the point of believing that she's counting on the racism in America to win out and that she'll be nominated in spite of the math that says there is no possible or fair way that she should get it.  He may be winning but she's WHITE! How sad!!!  And doesn't it say something to her when she hears the reports on the demographics of her support base?  Basically the only people who are still supporting her are the individuals who are too ignorant to know any better! I'm not trying to be nasty but it's the truth. Look at the ignorant and racist statements that some of the bloggers above have left here who are still in support of her!  "We don't want any Black stuff in our Whyte House" ??? Uh-hmm.  What are you afraid of?  Their cooties might infest the place? Another Blogger referred to Obama as being suspect for president because "he's African and Muslim" .  Yes, he's part African but he's also an American.  His name may be of Muslim origin but so was Mohammed Ali's and everybody loved him! And there's Kareem Abdul Jabar, but everybody loved the Lakers (well, west coast folk).  There was "Theo" aka Malcolm JAMAL Warner, and nobody boycotted The Cosby Show.  So, what is it?  Black people are fine as the entertainers of this country but they are not fine as the leaders of this country?  Or you'll give up on this country (what one blogger said)?  Well, based on the grammatical mistakes in your writing and the spelling of your first name my guess is that this wasn't your country to begin with so maybe you should just pack up and go back home!

Sorry, I got off track.  This was not supposed to be about confronting the racist idiots out there but reiterating that it is BEYOND the time for Hillary to hang up her hat. If there was any shred of dignity left in her body, and if she didn't want to be forever immortalized as the wacko woman presidential candidate who couldn't take no for an answer, she would have quit yesterday! Oops, too late! It's midnight and tomorrow just became today.  

Please Hillary...be the bigger woman and congratulate Obama.  As the original blogger said, show this country that you are ready to embrace change! Actions speak so much louder than words.</description>

		<description>Seriously it is time that we had a woman running for president that doesn't fell the need to lie when she's tired and that has no sense of practicality.  Please drop out immediatly..Barak Obama would do just fine without you and he shows it....and John McCain would do even better and you all know it   thanks for your time ...............by the way i'm eighteen and i'm a guy</description>

		<description>try a little math with me.

senate is 49/49 with 2 independents - sanders and lieberman

233 dems to 202 reps

270 votes needed to win

233 + 49 = 282

202 + 49 = 251

plus 2 independents but probably

283 / 252

if everyone goes down party lines

and three from dc ... 

meaning that there is a slim 18 vote margin that if lost, means 4 more years of bush policies.

do you really think the entire democratic party would get behind sen. obama?  i don't think so.

will they all get behind sen. clinton?  i'd say there are better odds with her, but i still don't think so.

split ticket?  let us pray.

it's all going to come down to 18 votes.  we really do need to get rid of this electorate.</description>
