- jhuckabee, on 01/30/2008, -82/+388She's exactly the filthy, lowly, scum politician that Barack Obama opposes in Washington.
Americans unite for Barack Obama. Let's show Washington that we will no longer stand for this kind of BS! - CunningLinguist, on 01/30/2008, -16/+238My main problem with the Clintons (aside from how gleefully they play dirty politics) is if Hillary is the Democratic nomination then you will have a catalyst that unites every Republican in the country and will get out the GOP vote while at the same time many democratic supporters like myself will lose motivation to get out. What is wrong with democrats that they cannot see this?
- dartmanx, on 01/30/2008, -4/+124You have a very ironic name for an Obama supporter.
- wolfegh, on 01/30/2008, -43/+155this is exactly what I've been trying to tell people about Billary. He/she is completely untrustworthy, which is precisely the problem we already have with the Bush Administration. There needs to be more transparency in our government and only Obama is pushing for more open and honest government. OBAMA '08
- elshizzo, on 01/30/2008, -10/+88meh, this is still not even close to the worst things she's done during this campaign
- ploop, on 01/30/2008, -1/+62That doesn't mean it's not ironic.
- Metavirus, on 02/10/2009, -20/+79Amen to everyone. Haven't we had enough of a President who lies with every breath he takes?
- darrenjohnson, on 01/30/2008, -30/+81I agree. To be fair, she stands for a lot of good principles. But she cannot be trusted, so all of her positions are basically meaningless...
- amr05h, on 01/30/2008, -9/+51Hey guys...
She didn't campaign in Florida. I live here, I know - no television ads, no open appearances, no kissing of babies. She came for fund raising, just the same as Obama did, and came down here after the Polls closed yesterday. - inactive, on 01/30/2008, -13/+43I have no doubt that Hillary would perform a blumpkin for your vote.
- wheezyninja, on 01/30/2008, -0/+28I definately concur, I'm a republican and I think that Obama stands closer to what I believe than any of the current GOP candidates. That being said, in my group of republican friends who aren't big fans of either GOP candidate will go and vote for them if another Clinton is on the ballot. So seriously Dem's it up to you to give me a reason to vote Dem this year...
- Isileth, on 01/30/2008, -1/+26You realise a present vote isnt doing nothing right?
It shows you agree with part of it but not all of it.
So rather than just vote against it which would come across as a full NO against it you vote present to show that if it was changed you would then agree with it enough to vote for it. - a2fan, on 01/30/2008, -8/+33Definately don't need another lying Clinton in the White House.
- xposiactionx, on 01/30/2008, -2/+26dug for the sheer horror of the mental picture you induced. well played sir.
- nirav72, on 01/30/2008, -7/+30"the legislative branch was controlled by conservatives. "
Right, and the legislative branch was controlled by republicans up until 2006. What happened there? Have you seen the economy lately? Oh did I mention the republicans controlled pretty much controlled every branch of the government since 2000? They still ***** it up! - employeeno5, on 01/30/2008, -8/+31Hi, I live in New Hampshire.
Though they may be right about Hillary breaking her word, I think it's important that you know a couple things about the Union Leader (the paper publishing). They are well know for being about as crazy as Fox News when it comes to right wing make-believe baby talk on issues, not just spinning but making things up, and completely failing to ever bring proper focus to vital issues nationally and abroad (like the fact we're in a couple wars and our economy is in taters; their excuse being that they specialize in local news). Yet, they're famous for publishing right-wing tirades on the front page rather than the editorial section.
I don't like Hillary, and the article has totally valid points, but I just wanted to enlighten people a bit on it's source. - notfaded1, on 01/30/2008, -8/+30Hillary vs. McCain is the best situation for the GOP. McCain can actually beat Hillary. He can get the center vote and many liberals who don't like the Clinton's. If the GOP base realizes it soon enough and can learn to except McCain which some signs show is starting to happen... could be be ingredients for a real race.
- lewhich, on 01/30/2008, -1/+21Democrats have that "rare" talent of choosing the wrong candidate. ...
- martalli, on 01/30/2008, -0/+20Among the business-conservatives, race really doesn't matter at all, they are by far more interested in results and, well, business. While it may not be true for every person, race is less a factor for the college-educated and business-oriented.
- relentless1914, on 01/30/2008, -2/+22Actually not necessarily. There is an increasing number of Black conservatives out there. Some Blacks don't see the repubs as racist, some of us just see them as indifferent towards people of color. There is a difference....
- ninsei, on 01/30/2008, -4/+23Did anyone read the comments posted below the article?
FTA:
Just wondering if you got my comment submitted last night. I'lll say it again. Hillary did not campaign down here. You were wrong to say so. She did come in after the polls closed to thanks her supporters. As for Obama, I did not see, but heard in the news his TV ads did get into northern Fl. I would suggest he could have paid a brief visit last evening here to thank people who suportedhim.
- Joanne Hannon, Pinellas Park, FL - wildone71, on 01/30/2008, -10/+29LOL, this woman has NO principles, what are you talking about? She's as dirty as the bottom of my toilet.
- xposiactionx, on 01/30/2008, -5/+24There isnt much difference between Hillary and the current admin. Same back door deals will be made.
- scrappyvintage, on 01/30/2008, -8/+25Read the comments. Coming from an objective viewpoint, it seems she (at least) did not campaign in Florida.
With that said, remember to vote for the man, never for the party.
***** Democrats.
***** Republicans. - kipmartin, on 01/30/2008, -11/+28i think youd better check your source--and perhaps identify it as quotation marks do not ensure accuracy or veracity. Hillary did indeed stump in Florida as was reported in the NY Times, and Time Magazine. and since when is 'fund raising' sunstantially different from 'campaigning'?
secondly, using the term 'ethical' in a description of Hillary is always laughable. she is a hard-nosed, take-no-prisoners, conniving, chess player. her shredness is her strong suit, but it isnt working against 'the amateur and ineffectuak idealism of her outmaneuvered opponents'. at least not Obamas.
come one--havent we had enough of the Clintons and the Bushs? cant we elect someone who isnt all script and branding a get a real person? Obama represents change. Hillary represents staleness and Washington. - Balanced, on 01/30/2008, -11/+26It could be, you know, his real name?
- funkytaco, on 01/30/2008, -1/+16That was a fair and balanced comment there, Balanced.
- CraigJ, on 01/30/2008, -1/+15You speak the truth. I'm not all that interested in any of the candidates but if Hillary gets the nomination I will take a trip to the polls specifically to vote against her.
- thickape, on 01/30/2008, -2/+16It really depends on what your definitions of the words "campaign" and "participate" are.
- martalli, on 01/30/2008, -0/+14Point taken, but I hope you are wrong.
- ant9821, on 01/30/2008, -15/+29If you read the comments of the article, people from FL are saying that she did NOT campaign in FL. Not that I like Hillary or anything, but false news is false news. Buried as inaccurate.
- TheSwashbuckler, on 01/30/2008, -24/+37LOL!
Arriving after the polls close is campaigning?!
It's amazing how people will lie to demonize Hillary... - inactive, on 01/30/2008, -2/+15What makes you think the Democrats are so against interventionism? Bill Clinton had a very intervention-based foreign policy; he even signed the Iraqi Liberation act.
And now, because of that act, the Iraqi's we gave money and weapons, to defeat Saddam, are fighting against us.
INTERVENTION FTW
/sarcasm.
Seriously, both parties want big government. They just argue blindly against what the other side is doing, even if it was along the lines of what they were doing in previous years!
And no, I don't like McCain or Hillary. - SinnopS, on 01/30/2008, -2/+15the 'Union Missleader' is a rag. I'm from Manchester and know exactly how this paper distorts the truth to get to its own ends. The editor LOVES Mcain so much its not even funny. Besides, this article does not even have an author attached to it. Who wrote this trash? Weather or not Clinton is a liar, i would not trust this news source.
- CraigJ, on 01/30/2008, -1/+14you have no idea how much hatred the Clintons inspire in the average Republican. If Hillary gets the nomination even the most apathetic Republican will vote against her. Frankly, if it comes down to Obama vs. McCain I'm not going to bother because I'm just not that interested. I will actively campaign against Hillary.
- elliotys, on 01/30/2008, -8/+20Seriously. "DIGG HATES THE ***** OUT OF HILLARY", should be the title of every Hillary Clinton story.
- elliotys, on 01/30/2008, -3/+15The real story hear is how dumb-***** retarded the democratic party has been (embarrassed cause im a member). Florida is a state that can really go either way, and was crucial for the republicans to win the 2000 election. So what does the "national democratic party" decide to do, tell every candidate not to campaign there? If I were a democrat in Florida, I would be pissed off (actually Im one in oregon and im pissed off). Seriously why the ***** does the democratic party have to be so cannibalistic. In my opinion, non of the candidates should have listened to the party, and instead should have campaigned aggresively in Florida.
- inactive, on 01/30/2008, -0/+11Well, especially if McCain is the nominee, Obama will have a much better chance of competing for independent voters. Hillary will only get the core democratic vote.
- falstaff, on 01/30/2008, -0/+11But if she manages to get her backers in the national party to reinstate the Florida and Michigan delegates at the convention, and that pushes her over the top (she's already gotten the backing of the majority of the superdelegates, I believe) she will have effectively stolen the nomination. She could very easily go into the convention winning fewer delegates than Obama in the normal primary process, but come away with the nomination. This particular lie may not seem like much by itself, but it absolutely is a part of a much bigger plan.
- inactive, on 01/30/2008, -2/+12boy, you nailed that one.
- katie212, on 01/30/2008, -11/+21Just say NO to warmongering McCain!
- catalysis, on 01/30/2008, -1/+10Hillary supporters are exactly like Bush supporters. They will let her do or say anything and still defend her until the pathetic end.
- bigfatpaulie, on 01/30/2008, -2/+11Going out of her way to say how she wants Florida delegates to count right before the primary is courting the Florida vote.
- PopcornDave, on 01/30/2008, -0/+9And for the country it's just gonna be same hole, different pole.
- hmmmok, on 01/30/2008, -3/+11Nixon lied to cover up his cronies. Clinton cronies lied (and took jail sentences) to cover for the Clintons.
- Wargalas, on 01/30/2008, -8/+16So, you like to generalize eh? Ok, I'll generalize with you. Democratic supporters are nothing more then spineless complainers who say they want a "revolution", yet aren't willing to roll up their sleeves and do something about it.
Not all Republicans are "bad" as you say, and not all Democrats are "liars" either. But if you want to stereotype, I'll be happy to bring up several Democratic shortcomings. - appletoapple, on 01/30/2008, -1/+9Dumbass. Obama is a Christian. Do I don't know, like 10 seconds worth of research.
- schnikies79, on 01/30/2008, -0/+8The fact is, like it or not, that the Iraq war is pretty far down the list of concerns for people at the moment. You can argue about polls all you want, but for the last few weeks, Iraq has been down to at least 4th place in almost every poll I've seen, behind the economy, immigration and I don't remember the 3rd.
I've got (close) family in Iraq, so I do care. It just seems that most of America, including democrats, don't. You rarely hear about it in either side's debates anymore. It's just turning out to be a non-issue in this election. - omgsideburns, on 01/30/2008, -3/+11what's it matter if they campaigned here? no delegates, our votes were useless. =(
- NoCt1, on 01/30/2008, -5/+13Buried for unreliable source. Come on people lets try to keep the garbage off the front page. I expect to see things about pr0n and Richard pryor and chubby chase..(earlier headline)
