@Jim Location: Whitesburg If only you had any idea how much a fool you just made of yourself. Just because I know Clintons are nuts (like yourself) I know Obama is the best hope for the crushed middle class. I also know for a fact that fools like you that are racist because of a mans name littlone skin color are the reason we have had the same white old male presidents for the entire history of the country. Btw before you make even more a fool of yourself Im white, male, and not stupid enough to claim any political party and only chose my candidates by there individual views and historys. But Id expect people like you dont know how to use google.

"Obama, well I wont even go there, it's a joke that someone with the middle name Hussein is leading the polls." It's shocking and disappointing to see this kind of bigotry and ignorance coming form someone who claims to be a Democrat. You're blaming Obama for his middle name, which was given to him by his parents and is common in many parts of the world. You don't like Bush, but how do you think he won two elections? It's because of the bigots and fearmongers who play on people's worst instincts to divide Americans. Attitudes like yours are just plain un-American, and frankly you should be ashamed.

It is a shame we don't have a candidate that we can back 100%. We have to choose the lesser of 3 evils...that's a pity. I think the worst of the three is Obama because he "promises" so much: change, hope, etc., and doesn't practice it. He professes unity, but attends his church that spouts drivel. He lies about his associations and covers it up with flowery speeches that have no substance.The media are the ones who have "elected" Obama. They put him on a throne and gloss over any and all of his shortcomings and crucify the other candidates. At least, with them, we know what we are getting. We know NOTHING about this man. He is a wolf in sheep's clothing and we will suffer for it if he is nominated and elected.

I couldn't have said it better myself. We are spoiled; we want everything and we live in a convenience store society...we want everything at our fingertips. We buy, buy, buy on credit, buy more house than we can afford, and we want the govt to help us out for our bad decisions. Tighten your belts and act like adults.

What a bunch of ignorant Kentuckians! Jim, the only reason we're in a recession is because we're in a war. All you people think about is yourself. You are no better than the politicians themselves. Our country needs to stop dividing ourselves as a Republican,Democrat, Independent, or whatever else; we need to work together. George Washington himself was against political parties and knew it would be bad for our country. Boy, was he right! If you look at WWII, we worked as one nation, no doubt about it, and we won the war in 5 years. Look at ourselves now; we have gotten nowhere. But don't blame just the president, it's our fault too. We're a bunch of spoiled brats! How often do we think about our soldiers that risk their lives everyday? This is a war, of course there is going to be sacrifices and hard times.

This comment is to WoW from Richmond. Just another typical Republican! You better know more about something before talking about it. Hillary's health care plan is based on your income. You pay a percentage for healthcare plans. This means Minimun wagers will get health insurance cheaper than anyone else. I myself dont beleive there is a good candidate running, although I realize Clinton is our best hope. McCain stated everything is going fine in Iraq and beleives the strategy doesnt need a change. It is 100% George W's and the rest of the rupublicans fault that were in a recession. Obama, well I wont even go there, it's a joke that someone with the middle name Hussein is leading the polls. Edwards, the best overall candidate, was destoyed by the media before he even had a chance because the price of his haircut! But no matter how this primary turns out I will vote Democrat all the way because ANY REPUBLICAN will be more of the same.
