Obama is republican lite. And if liberals think Obama won’t be subject to smears every bit as vitriolic as any faux scandals they could fire at Hillary, they haven’t been paying attention.

I think liberal America’s rejection of, and demonization of, Hillary Clinton is really kinda pathetic. Reagan was a Washington outsider. Bush II was (sold as) a Washington outsider. Jimmy Carter was a Washington outsider.

How well did those work out, eh?

Now Obama, who spouts feely-good generalities, has no shortage of his own corporate connections and proxy swiftboaters, and promotes bipartisanship with the GOP’s scorched earth knuckle-draggers, is running as a Washington outsider.

Maybe fourth time’s a charm, but I doubt it.

Maybe some day we’ll have Democracy, but not yet.

Let’s get teh voting system fixed, so we can at least have the appearance of a Democracy with that.

I supported John Edwards and it does hurt, despite knowing his chances were like a snowball in Hell.

No matter who’s gets the nod he’s going to get a job in the cabinet, he’s just too popular not to. I’m going to miss him in the debates; he brought some civility to them. At least we get to see Ron Paul explain the economy to the Republicans for another couple weeks, after he’s gone then there’s really no reason to watch the debates anymore.

I’m not a H-Dog fan, but at least I kinda know where she stands. Obama is running on change, but I have no idea what he’s going to change! He’s running on the young good looking platform I guess. It sucks that the people that are mathematically out of the race, or have dropped out are the only ones who have a platform.

That being said, like boxing my moneys on the black guy!

About the only way I could see Gravel make it is if the fix were in and both Clinton and Obama dropped out right before the convention, leaving Gravel as the only Democratic candidate.

Also, my wife’s a feminist and would vote third party before HRC.

Bodes ill for Democrats, the party with a death wish.

I’d take her over any of the GOP currently running, but if it’s down to her or Obama, the choice is clear now. Hell, that isn’t even a choice–that’s a moral imperative.

Like her, no. But McCain? Ummm, not….

Of course, I can’t tell you whether I’d vote for in next weeks CO caucuses either – Obama or Clinton. I guess it’s finally time to hit their websites.

One interpretation is that John Edwards is a man who says one thing and does another. The other is that he’s a man who learns from his mistakes and is willing to do what he can to reform the system – while accepting that the battle has to be won from…
