Barack Obama another MEDIA CREATED Jimmy Carter!!!

It's Time to Bring Up Jimmy Carter.

A nice man, but an ineffectual President who had no foreign political experience. If the following sounds like it's really about Barack Obama, then we have a lot to worry about. It appears that half this country is led by their noses by the media! The rest of us are supporting Hillary Clinton for President. Read it and weep, my friends, as history might be about to repeat this terrible mistake.

The following is from Wikipedia:

"When Carter entered the Democratic Party presidential primaries in 1976, he was considered to have little chance against nationally better-known politicians. He had a name recognition of only 2 percent. When he told his family of his intention to run for President, he was asked by his mother, "President of what?" However, Nixon's Watergate scandal was still fresh in the voters' minds, and so his position as an outsider, distant from Washington, D.C., became an asset. The centerpiece of his campaign platform was government reorganization. He attacked Washington in his speeches, and offered a religious salve for the nation's wounds, which was necessary following the Watergate scandal.

The media discovered and promoted Carter. As Lawrence Shoup noted in his 1980 book The Carter Presidency and Beyond:

"What Carter had that his opponents did not was the acceptance and support of elite sectors of the mass communications media. It was their favorable coverage of Carter and his campaign that gave him an edge, propelling him rocket-like to the top of the opinion polls. This helped Carter win key primary election victories, enabling him to rise from an obscure public figure to President-elect in the short space of 9 months."

As late as January 26, 1976, Carter was the first choice of only 4% of Democratic voters, according to a Gallup Poll. Yet "by mid-March 1976 Carter was not only far ahead of the active contenders for the Democratic presidential nomination, he also led President Ford by a few percentage points," according to Shoup.

Carter's presidency was marked by several major crises, including the takeover of the American embassy and holding of hostages by students in Iran, a failed rescue attempt of the hostages, serious fuel shortages, and the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.

The final year of his term was dominated by the Iran hostage crisis, during which the United States struggled to rescue diplomats and American citizens held hostage in Tehran. By 1980, Carter was so unpopular that he was challenged by Ted Kennedy for the Democratic Party nomination in 1980. Carter received the Democratic nomination, but lost the election to Republican Ronald Reagan."

Sounds like we're talking about Barack Obama, CNN, MSNBC and the rest of the media today doesn't it?

Clearly, Jimmy Carter is a nice man, but he was simply the wrong choice for President at the time. I didn't know until I read Wikipedia what went on at the time. I'd always thought his election was because of his nice guy Southern charm.


The media created Carter and they created Obama. Okay, maybe George Clooney had a hand in it too. Darn you, gorgeous George!

Be afraid, people. Be very afraid.

News Blackout for Me!

I can't watch the news anymore. I honestly don't know how Hillary Clinton does it. I'm a nervous wreck over this election! I so dearly want HRC to be the Democratic nominee that I get depressed with every new hit on her in the media & by NObama. I don't understand why superdelegates are switching sides now claiming they want to follow the will of the people. Really? You care that much about the will of the people? If so, then wait until it's clear who has the most delegates. As it stands now one is only slightly ahead of the other. That's not a clear mandate as far as I can see. Or am I missing something here? Is the fix in and they already know the outcomes in Texas, Ohio, Vermont and Rhode Island and Pennsylvania down the road?

I'm sure Mr. Lewis switched sides more for personal reasons than the will of the people. He's black and he wants to support a black man -- well, half black and half white, but they always ignore that fact -- which is understandable. I support a woman candidate because I want a woman President for a change. REAL change. Not the unknown change NObama talks about. However, it's not just because she's a woman I support HRC. The woman is a rock. To take the attacks she has and heartaches and all the b.s. and have stood up to all that? Well that's the person I want to be President!

Me? I can't take the heat. In order to stay positive I need a media/news blackout.

Over and out. HILLARY CLINTON FOR REAL CHANGE IN AMERICA!!!!

Thank You Whoopi Goldberg!

For pointing out that it would make no sense at all for Clinton's campaign to have put that Obama photo out there when it does not hurt Obama but Hillary in the long run. She also pointed out, as did Hillary, that other politicians including Hillary and Bill have donned native costumes when visiting foreign countries and that the ONLY person hurt by this is HRC by the insinuation by Dredge Report that it came from a Clinton staffer. Which is what her detractors were probably hoping for. I actually believe that someone who hates Clinton and does not want her to get the nomination put this out there to smear her. Make more people distrust her. Maybe it's an Obama supporter, maybe the Republicans.

Why so many people hate Hillary is beyond me. What has she done to incur this wrath?

The woman cares about this country; she cares about people in this country and cleaning up the mess George W. Bush will leave behind.

Come on Texas and pull this one out for Hillary Clinton!

Hillary Clinton on YouTube for the Undecided

I'm calling out to the undecided in Ohio, Texas, Vermont, Rhode Island and all the other states who have yet to have their primaries.

Please take a look at Hillary Clinton's plans, proposals and speeches on YouTube and judge for yourself whether this strong, intelligent woman should get your vote as the first woman President of the United States. At the very least just take a look to see what she has to say. I implore you. This country needs this woman.

http://youtube.com/hillaryclinton

Thank you. And once again, a big shout out to TINA FEY for her choice of Hillary Clinton and for braving the media to support Hillary!

BITCH IS THE NEW BLACK and BITCHES GET STUFF DONE!

"Bitch Is The New Black!" Tina Fey is my heroine!

If you didn't see last night's new episode of Saturday Night Live, then you missed Tina Fey's "Women in the News" segment on Weekend Update. I hope the clip shows up on You Tube soon. Sounds to me like Tina supports Hillary Clinton. At the end of her piece she says something like, "and one more reason people may not like her, a lot of people say she's (Hillary) is a bitch! Well, she IS a bitch. And so am I, and so is she (re: Amy Poehler). And you know what? Bitches get things done." She went on in that vein ending with "So come on Texas and Ohio! Get with it! Bitch is the new Black!"

It was heartening to see someone stand up for Hillary Clinton for a change, especially on a popular show. And this being the first show since the writer's strike, I'm sure there will be much coverage of the episode.

Oh and the show began with a funny rift on the debate Thursday night pointing out the worst kept secret in America - the media bias toward and fawning over Obama. Loved it!

Thank you TINA FEY!!!!

SHAME on Barack Obama - Now His Gloves Come Off!

Well, this is just despicable. I suppose because he's practically untouchable in the media that he feels they can get away with this LIE!!!! HIS plan is the one that forces Americans to purchase health insurance and Barack Obama's plan would KEEP private insurance companies in business!!! Tell me that's NOT a significant difference from Hillary Clinton's plan for Universal Healthcare coverage?

Shame on you, Barack Obama," Clinton said, speaking to reporters after a rally in Ohio, a state that is key to her struggling campaign.

Brandishing a copy of the leaflet, Clinton said the Obama campaign was spreading "false, misleading, discredited information" about her health-care plan.

"Senator Obama knows it is not true that my plan forces people to buy insurance even if they can't afford it," Clinton said. "It is blatantly false and yet he continues to spend millions of dollars perpetuating falsehoods. It is not hopeful. It is destructive, particularly for a Democrat to be discrediting universal health care."


First he can't even elect to go first in any debate because all he ever does is repeat Hillary Clinton's responses then he does this!

I'll tell you right now, I will never vote for B.O. NEVER. Hillary is the one who should be the Democratic Nominee. Why couldn't he wait 8 years to take HIS shot at the presidency. We don't need him now!!!

And I made the mistake of watching Leno last night where Bill O'Reilly said Hillary won't have a chance since she'd have to win BIG in Texas and Ohio to stop B.O.'s momentum and "that won't happen." But what really burned me up was Jay Leno saying that B.O. has earned and deserved all those wins. Oh really? Jay, can you name one accomplishment that B.O. has to his record?

At least Bill O'Reilly got one thing very right: he said it's a popularity contest because when all is said and done B.O. agrees with Hillary more often than not. He said, as I have stated in a previous blog, that it's Al Gore vs. George W. Bush all over again. That she's not likeable and it's too late to start now. Oh great. Another reason I will be totally fed up with this facaca country and it's witless people for voting once again for Style over Substance.

I'm mad, I'm angry and I'm sad that once again, the BEST candidate for the job may not get there.

L.A. Times Article - Obama said oops on 6 state Senate votes

Obama said oops on 6 state Senate votes

He pushed the wrong button, he asserted at the time. Two of the admitted flubs were on hotly contested issues.
By Peter Wallsten, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
January 24, 2008

Barack Obama angered fellow Democrats in the Illinois Senate when he voted to strip millions of dollars from a child welfare office on Chicago's West Side. But Obama had a ready explanation: He goofed.

"I was not aware that I had voted no," he said that day in June 2002, asking that the record be changed to reflect that he "intended to vote yes."

That was not the only misfire for the former civil rights attorney first elected to the state Senate in 1996. During his eight years in state office, Obama cast more than 4,000 votes. Of those, according to transcripts of the proceedings in Springfield, he hit the wrong button at least six times.

The rules allow state lawmakers to clear up a mishap if they suffered from a momentary case of stumbly fingers or a lapse in attention. Correcting the record is common practice in the Illinois Legislature, where lawmakers routinely cast numerous votes in a hurry.

But some lawmakers say the practice also offers a relatively painless way to placate both sides of a difficult issue. Even if a lawmaker admits an error, the actual vote stands and the official record merely shows the senator's "intent."

No one has accused Obama, now a U.S. senator and a leading candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination, of changing votes to play both sides, and an Obama spokesman called that idea "absurd."

But Obama has come under fire from Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York and former Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina for his frequent use of another oddity of Illinois politics: voting "present" rather than casting up-or-down votes on controversial measures.

"It is very difficult having a straight-up debate with you, because you never take responsibility for any vote, and that has been a pattern," Clinton told him in a debate Monday.

Tommy Vietor, an Obama spokesman, said the mistaken votes were not meaningful. "In Illinois, legislators often have just a few seconds to cast a vote, so after thousands of votes they're bound to make a few mistakes," he said. Referring to Clinton's vote to authorize the war in Iraq and her support for a bankruptcy measure, Vietor added, "The real problem is when Democrats vote like Republicans."

Four of Obama's admitted flubs drew little controversy.

On March 19, 1997, he announced he had fumbled an election-reform vote the day before, on a measure that passed 51 to 6: "I was trying to vote yes on this, and I was recorded as a no," he said. The next day, he acknowledged voting "present" on a key telecommunications vote.

He stood on March 11, 1999, to take back his vote against legislation to end good-behavior credits for certain felons in county jails. "I pressed the wrong button on that," he said.

Obama was the lone dissenter on Feb. 24, 2000, against 57 yeas for a ban on human cloning. "I pressed the wrong button by accident," he said.

But two of Obama's bumbles came on more-sensitive topics. On Nov. 14, 1997, he backed legislation to permit riverboat casinos to operate even when the boats were dockside.

The measure, pushed by the gambling industry and fought by church groups whose support Obama was seeking, passed with two "yeas" to spare -- including Obama's. Moments after its passage he rose to say, "I'd like to be recorded as a no vote," explaining that he had mistakenly voted for it.

Obama would later develop a reputation as a critic of the gambling industry, and he voted against a similar measure two years later. But he was clearly confused about how to handle the issue at the time of his first vote, telling a church group on a 1998 campaign questionnaire that he was "undecided" about whether he backed an expansion of riverboat gambling. And, months earlier, he had voted in favor of a version of the bill.

The senator who led the opposition to the gambling measure, Republican Todd Sieben, said he took Obama at his word that the initial vote was an error. But Sieben also said the thin margin of victory was a sign that perhaps there was more to the vote than met the eye. "He was obviously paying attention to this vote. It was a major, major issue in the state, and it was a long debate," Sieben said. "The inadvertent 'Oops, I missed the switch' -- I'd be kind of skeptical of that."

On June 11, 2002, Obama's vote sparked a confrontation after he joined Republicans to block Democrats trying to override a veto by GOP Gov. George Ryan of a $2-million allotment for the west Chicago child welfare office.

Shortly afterward, Obama chastised Republicans for their "sanctimony" in claiming that only they had the mettle to make tough choices in a tight budget year. And he called for "responsible budgeting."

A fellow Democrat suddenly seethed with anger. "You got a lot of nerve to talk about being responsible," said Sen. Rickey Hendon, accusing Obama of voting to close the child welfare office.

Obama replied right away. "I understand Sen. Hendon's anger. . . . I was not aware that I had voted no on that last -- last piece of legislation," he said.

Obama asked that the record reflect that he meant to vote yes. Then he requested that Hendon "ask me about a vote before he names me on the floor."

Hendon declined to discuss the episode. "I try to block out unpleasant memories," said Hendon, who has endorsed Obama. "If I tried really hard to remember it, I probably could, but I'm not going to try hard because I'm supporting the senator all the way."

Hendon said "it happens" that senators press the wrong button. But he was quick to add: "I've never done it."

Substance Vs. Style

Hillary vs. Barack, Al vs. George W. -- now I'm not inferring that Barack isn't smart, I have to say that right off the bat here. Obviously he's a very intelligent man.

But the implication should be clear here. America, we've been there, done that. Republicans and obviously quite a few Democrats and independents, voted for George W. Bush I suppose because they preferred good old boy George and his personality (nevermind his less than stellar qualifications for being Prez) over Al Gore. And who has turned out to have been wrong?

Al Gore clearly would have been a terrific President. But he was too boring and stiff for the country -- they thought he was too intellectual. They chose style over substance. And I'm afraid the Democrats are swooning over Obama for the same reason. That is not to say Barack isn't smart. He's obviously very intelligent. But he hasn't done anything so far. He has no record except for voting wrong six different times! I think he needs more seasoning and a longer stint as a senator before I'd trust him with the country.

Barack is the charismatic speaker, he's inspiring people to swoon and follow him. I think that's just one aspect of a good leader. That's the style everyone's falling for. Where's his substance? If the man can't pay attention to what he's voting for or against in his present job, how can he run a country? Well, Hillary is ready to run but she lacks the charisma, the inspiring speeches.

People, have we learned nothing from your rejection of Al Gore for those very reasons? How great would this country be right now if we'd just had 7 years of an Al Gore presidency instead of what we just suffered through with Bush?

Food for thought, I hope.

A Latte for Hillary

Okay, so it's been a disappointing few days. But we expected it, right? I did volunteer for the Clinton campaign, finally putting my money where my mouth was. I made calls over President's Day weekend to Ohio, Texas and Wisconsin. Now judging by the calls I made to Wisconsin I would have thought Hillary might have won that one. I got some very nice responses of super support for Hillary. Oh well, back to the drawing board.

Now comes the real showdown. The polls still show Hillary Clinton ahead in Texas and Ohio. She has to win on March 4th to be our Democratic nominee for President and become the first woman President of the United States. In that light all the campaign is asking for is a donation of just $5.00 -- that's about a latte and a half... so give up a latte for Hillary why don't you? I can't lay claim to that. I emailed a few friends to donate just $5 and my friend Jill said she'd be willing to give up a few lattes to get Hillary elected.

If anyone stumbles across my blog and/or reads this, please support Hillary Clinton by donating just $5.00! There's a link below to make it easy.

And hey, about that plagiarism story... look it was grasping at straws. I think Hillary was ill-advised by her team on that one. It made them look desperate. And that was sad. But I still believe Hillary Clinton is the best candidate for the job.

Now, about Michelle Obama's over-the-top statement -- yes, you know the one I'm talking about, the one everyone's talking about. Her comment about this being the first time in her adult life she's been proud of her country and felt hope? My friend Jill would like to smack her! As Jill put it, "Hasn't it ever occured to her that her entire charmed and privileged adult life (from Ivy League education through this opportunity to become First Lady) is largely attributable to her being an American? (not to mention all the other reasons she should have some pride in her country.) I'd like to see her have pride and hope living life in Iran, or Saudi Arabia." Not to mention Kenya, Iraq, Darfur or Afghanistan for that matter.

Point well taken there, Jill. Whoopie Goldberg also took issue with Michelle Obama's statement as well yesterday morning on The View.

And of course today comes the "that's not what I meant" explanations -- of course it wasn't. But aren't words powerful?

And one other little thing, how about what I also heard on The View that Obama has mistakenly voted six times for legislation that he meant to vote against! Uh, gee, not quite on the ball there is he? But of course, for some reason, this is just another overlooked "minor" flaw by the media. Ah me. He may be a brilliant speaker and writer, but he sounds like a scatterbrain where it counts -- at work!

Over and out! Keep the faith! VOTE FOR HILLARY CLINTON FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!!

1-20-09 seen on a bumper sticker this morning...

Hmmm, so upon closer inspection the bumper sticker read:

1-20-09 Bush's Last Day in Office

Well, that brought a huge smile to my face. Finally, the light at the end of a long, dark, gloomy tunnel!

And let's hope that it's Hillary Clinton being sworn in as the next President of the United States of America.

Happy Valentine's Day and have a good day.

It Ain't Over Till It's Over...

Okay, now that the dust has settled on a few more primaries, what we have is Obama taking small states that the experts thought he would. A big shout out to Texas and Ohio for March from California -- Hang in there and don't sway in the wind.

What I mean is, don't leave Hillary now. She needs your support now more than ever. At a time when the pollsters are getting it just as wrong as right, don't let them convince you to flock over to Obama. I believe when all is said and done, when the primaries are over, Hillary Clinton will be ahead in the delegate count. If she doesn't have enough to clinch the nomination we have to hope that the superdelegates stay true to her.

From where I sit my suspicion is that the Republicans are sponsoring polls trying to show, incorrectly, that Obama could beat McCain. He won't. But they want the Democrats to think he can, because they know McCain's a shoe-in if Obama's the candidate.

Hillary Clinton can win this. She is the better candidate and represents true change for the history of our country.

She's tested and she's ready. For me and a lot of my friends, it's Hillary Clinton all the way.

Between the Media & the Wax Museum... Houston, We Have a Problem!

MSNBC's Shuster said on air last Thursday, while talking about Chelsea Clinton placing phone calls to Democratic superdelegates on her mother’s behalf: “Doesn’t it seem as if Chelsea is sort of being pimped out in some weird sort of way?”

The media has been hostile to Hillary Clinton from the very start, and it's getting worse. If half the crap they threw at her was slung at Obama, or as I like to refer to him now, NObama, it would be called racism. I don't even get the "pimping out her daughter" remark. Well, if that was his true feeling about family campaigning then throughout history every politician has pimped out their wives, mothers and children. What a jerk.

Chris Matthews and "Hardball" has been unwatchable to this Clinton supporter for their clear hostility toward Hillary Clinton. For example, weeks ago, Chris Matthews apologized to the former first lady after suggesting her political career had been made possible because of her husband’s philandering.

Oh really? Is that what he thinks? Maybe, just maybe, Mr. Matthews, it's because Bill Clinton was brave and confident enough to show that his spouse was an equally brilliant person in her own right. Most of us sat up and took notice of that fact. While I loved Bill Clinton and thought he was a terrific President for this country, I realized, Hillary Clinton, wow, now there's a woman who should and could be President!

When you think of what Hillary Clinton has had to endure both professionally and personally in the public eye all these years and yet she is stronger for it, well, wouldn't you trust that steely strength to run this country? I would.

Oh and don't even get me started on that Madame Tussaud's Washington D.C. wax museum debacle. Placing Obama in the center behind the desk in the Oval office with Hillary off to the side like his aide, well that was just plain mean and rude and insulting to women. It only reinforced how men perceive women as subservient to men; wives, moms and daughters but not leaders. God forbid they actually offer us a glimpse of the first WOMAN President. Besides, I don't believe for one minute that Hillary Clinton would play VP after all is said and done. How ludicrous to have a person with her experience and intelligence playing second fiddle after all this to a younger, inexperienced man with nothing to offer but vague speeches about change and hope. Please.

Okay, that's my rant for today. GO HILLARY -- WIN THIS ONE FOR SUSAN B. ANTHONY as well as me and all the other fine women who believe in you. And let's not forget our men who want to vote for you as well. She won California, at least we got that right.

Women Get the Right to Vote - and BLOW it!

February 5, 2008 · Sunday was the 138th anniversary of the 15th amendment's ratification, which guaranteed black men the right to vote in 1870. Theodore Shaw, of the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund, talks about the amendment and the later provision for women to vote.

The 19th Amendment to the Constitution was passed in 1920, August 18, giving women the right to vote.

Why should women expect a woman President after all these years of men running this country? Well, case number one. Black men have had the right to vote since 1870. Women have only had the right to vote since 1920.

Men have run the United States of America since its inception. Some have done a great job, some a mediocre job, some like George W. Bush, a completely dismal job.

Hillary Clinton is an extremely viable choice for President. As a woman and a mother women should be able to identify with her. Our goals for this country seem to be similar. She's also tried and tested in the Washington establishment. She's already come up against the system and weathered it. And she's tough. She won't crack under the strain, unlike Obama who showed he could be rattled during the debate when he practically had a hissy fit sputtering out ..."well, I don't know who I'm running against, you or Bill..." to paraphrase his rattled response. If he can get annoyed and rattled during a debate, how can this man run this country? He's only been a Senator for 3 short years. Frankly, Hillary is one tough cookie. She doesn't crack, she doesn't crumble, she more than holds her own during interviews, debates, and press interviews/cross examinations.

I suspect men don't like her because she's as tough as they are. She's a threat. Finally, a woman who can run this country as well as a man, if not better.

So why aren't women in the United States uniting for this capable woman for president? Are they judgmental over her personal life? Are they swooning over Obama?

My friend was watching her 12 year-old daughter and her friends at a party the other day. The mother commented that the friends were a cute group. Her daughter seemed surprised, "Even Jenny??" Her mom, shocked at her daughter's clear disapproval of Jenny, remarked, "Why, just because she has braces right now, she's at a little awkward stage, but she's cute and has a great personality." To which her daughter, my godchild, rolled her eyes in disagreement. We discussed this judgmental attitude we women become accustomed to at an early age. We are competitive and taught by society to be the prettiest, the best and all for the attention of ... men, boys. Yup, that's what it boils down to. I think. It's the only explanation I have for most of the women out there who say they don't like Hillary and won't or can't support her.


Don't misunderstand where I'm coming from. I love men. I'm just tired of men always being in charge of the ecomony and waging war for no good reason. A woman in charge: now that would represent huge change.

What a shame. The first completely viable and strong woman for President we have a shot at in the history of our country, and she's struggling. There just are no words to describe my disappointment with my own sex. Oddly enough, most of my girlfriends are supporting Hillary and we are a sisterhood in agreement over this. Why aren't other women like us?? It's a mystery.

And I'll tell you this: Hillary Clinton can beat McCain. Barack Obama will not. Period. As a point of contention, which has nothing to do with race, none of us believes Barack would be a good President. Not at this time in history. Not after the mess that George W. Bush will leave this country in. None of us can in all honesty, vote for him if he's the nominee. We have all said we'd vote for McCain. At least he's not Bush and he's got more experience.

Let's hope and pray that Hillary Clinton can turn this around and finally appeal to women out there who should be supporting her. Because women of America, it's your loss if you can't support this totally capable woman. You are still buying into the patriarchal society of men ruling. And shame on you for not believing a woman can do a better job of running this country that the current man.

Hillary Clinton For President

So, the consensus here among my mostly female friends, one straight hispanic male, and one young gay man in Los Angeles, all Democrats, is that we will vote for Hillary for President but not Obama.

Hillary is tough, smart and would be an excellent President who can dig in on the first day to clean up the mess left behind by Shrub Bush... ugh. However, this dream of the first female president is in danger of being eclipsed by a man who couldn't wait his turn to run for President. Obama must have gotten quite a swelled head after all the compliments over speeches that have people bedazzled. Me, I'm immune. He seems cold and distant to me and speaks in generalities. I don't get it. What has he done? What is his record? Well, it's yet to be written. And the Presidency is no place to start!

I look at Obama and I see a man who I could vote for in 8 years when I know more about him. When he's done battle and paid his dues. But not now. Fired up speeches with vague promises of change are not going to cut it. Not after the mess Bush has this country in.

The Republicans must be positively giddy with joy over the Obama express. John McClain can start moving into the White House before the summer's even over if Obama's the nominee. McCain is not too far to the right, a man who survived a horrible war experience, a man who can deal with terrorism and knows Washington. Now is not the time for dreamy idealism that Obama represents.

It's no surprise that this weekend was quite depressing for Hillary supporters, watching those little states fall under the charm of Obama, one lemming after another. Bah humbug. He may be their candidate, but he's not my choice. I won't vote for him. Why couldn't he wait until a woman has been elected for a change? Obama represent change? Oh please. He's another man. All he represents to me and mine, is another man in power.

Oh and while I'm at it, what's the deal with we WOMEN? Why can't we support our own sex???? What is your problem with Hillary Clinton? Again, I just don't get it. You women DO know that rooting for Obama does not get you any closer to George Clooney, right?

Well, here's hoping and praying the Democratic party is smart this time around. Nominate Hillary Clinton. She can beat John McCain. Hillary represents bigger change than you can imagine.
