  • jhuckabee, on 03/04/2008, -4/+9Obama will seal the deal tonight. Hillary campaign is over.
  • KewlerKid3, on 03/04/2008, -5/+9They're all losing their cool. Obama just has more $_$
  • kschramm, on 03/04/2008, -4/+7Yes, it's definitely not a game for Hillary.
  • bluedostoevsky, on 03/04/2008, -6/+9there was nothing out of the ordinary going on in that article besides the light that obama was cast in.
  • Eiknujrac, on 03/04/2008, -3/+5I'm not worried, it will only make him stronger for the general election. After this race is over, John McCain will be a pushover.
  • Pherdnut, on 03/04/2008, -2/+3No, this is actually proof that Hillary has finally run out of ammo, options and ideas. When she warned of "skeletons" in Obama's closet months ago, most Chicagoans knew she was talking about Rezko and we just shrugged. It's old news and neither the Chicago Trib (a GOP-leaning paper) or the Sun Times (a DFL-leaning paper that's known for breaking corruption stories regardless of political affiliation) have found anything juicier than the house purchase itself.

    Rezko is one of those unavoidable shady characters in Chicago politics whose favormongering and graft got people on both sides of the aisle in big trouble. Except of course Obama who somehow managed to buy a house from the guy for what appears to be a reasonable market value without doing him any legislative favors.

    Rezko's donations to his campaign (the guy donated to everybody - again DFL and GOP) were given to a charity when the first signs of corrupt practices surfaced.

    Yeah Hillary, it's KIND of like Whitewater, only without all the illegal or shady stuff and much easier to explain.
  • NameTry2468, on 03/04/2008, -3/+4If I were incessantly and needlessly barraged with insulting, disparaging, and unfounded allegations, AND I had already answered these questions time after time, AND made all related documentation public, I'd be losing my cool too. He answered cutting questions about ridiculous allegations truthfully and in detail. What the heck else did they want?
  • 3ugene, on 03/04/2008, -2/+3Oh quit making excuses.
  • 3ugene, on 03/04/2008, -2/+2or Obama

  • brutalentropy, on 03/04/2008, -1/+1oooor McCain. Let's face it, dirty is standard in politics.
  • bumpshack, on 03/04/2008, -6/+3Holes are starting to appear in Obama's Armour.
  • inactive, on 03/04/2008, -10/+5Doesn't the press know he has an eight question limit?
    You can't hit him with so many questions and expect more than eight nonanswers, can you?
  • putergirl, on 03/04/2008, -8/+2This is not a game for the faint of heart or the weak of background
  • Cryptocracy, on 08/17/2008, -11/+4Obamas mojo is a myth.
  • 3ugene, on 03/04/2008, -14/+6He's not a very good speaker when he faces opposition now is he?
