if Roe were finally overturned because Hillary's (largely) female supporters threw a hissy fit in November?

I say they should go ahead. Tell your daughters that coathanger abortions are in their future because you just love Hillary so much.

We'll see how that conversation goes, and how much of Hillary's reputation survives a McCain Presidency.

before anybody ever heard of Roe v. Wade. That says a lot for them, IMO.

I meant the losing candidate to mobillize his/her voters to vote for the party's candidate.

It's 56% of Hillary's 33% of voters polled in this poll.  So that's about 18% of Dem primary voters.

Actually, no, the Army has ADDED 17,000 troops since last year. The Marine Corps has ADDED 9,000 troops. This is at the expense of the Air Force and the Navy, which has lost about 23,00 troops total since last year. But, this is part of a restructuring to meet the needs of the Iraq War. The fact is, we have added 3,000 troops total since this time last year. Our military may be stretched thin, but we ARE meeting our recruitment levels.

So, nice try at fear mongering.

possibility; if Iran is bombed by Bush and McCain wins he will start draft; if Iran is bombed by Bush and Obama wins and Iran with the region going up in flames Obama will HAVE TO start draft;

supporters fainting dead away and waking up to love Obama.

"Ain't gonna happen".

a snowball's chance in hell of Obama's winning NC.

The more troubling thing about the 56% statistic is not even so much about NC -- where, as I said, Obama has no chance anyway -- but what it suggests about the hardening of Clinton supporters against Obama more generally. My guess is that the Clinton voters in NC are not terribly different from those in the Appalachian region, and perhaps not so different from Clinton supporters in the Rust Belt.

Teresa, there's just so much fail in that comment, it's hard to know where to start. You're the product of a personality cult- the Clinton personality cult- and you're proving it's got you hooked way more than anything Obama's got. I understand you feel strongly because you're a woman, but blaming Obama for everything that's gone on in this campaign is a work in cognitive dissonance. Not to mention if your Democratic party affiliation stretches so far back that you voted for Carter over Reagan, Dukkakis over Bush, etc, that you're so willing to give it up and vote for McCain over Obama, it seems like you never had more than a shaky and uncommitted relationship with this party in the first place. Otherwise, you might try to fix what you perceive as wrongs, rather than give up entirely.

If this is how you feel, imagine how African Americans feel. Your likely comment here would be, yeah, but they're wrong and I'm right. Think about that for a second, and realize this isn't black and white (no pun intended), and you're trying to see it as that.

In fact downticket losses in NC will be devastating if Clinton is the nominee.

Heh. Comedy.

that Reagan Dems voted for Reagan precisely to avoid politicians just like him. Obama is a redux of George McGovern, possibly, because he will be associated with radical views, as McGovern was "acid, amnesty, and abortion." If Obama had as much as Dick Morris-ed the guy by throwing him under the bus, he'd be a much safer bet. Instead, he is still saying he is a good man. All you have to do it play a clip, and then play a soud byte of Obama saying "he's a good man" and repeat it. The Obama supporters talk about him getting the Reagan Dems, but don't they realize who the Reagan Dems are voting for? HILLARY! And I don't think she's that good a candidate. I'm talking electoral college tho, as both will prob win the popular vote. But we can't be a regional party. We need not just Gore/Kerry states, but Clinton/Gore '92 and '96 states, like West Virginia, Missouri, New Mexico, Tennessee, Arkansas, Nevada. There's a reason those states could vote Dem in two straight elections yet all switch to George Bush two times, except NM which barely went Gore(btw he won in such big margins even no perot, the GOP had no chance in those states, not to mention his non-factorness). I just cannot see Hillary Clinton winning those states like her husband did. But there is no way in hell Obama will either. His whole candidacy will be Ohio. If he can pull off Kerry PLUS Gore, and get Ohio, which he's more likely to get than Florida, he is President. It will be close because Obama will get 60 percent in New York, California, Massachussetts, Rhode Island, get close to that in the rest of the northeast, get mid 50's west coast, skate by in the rust belt, and get demolished in the south.

First, the the Clintons had their name attached to sketchy dealings in Arkansas and shook off accusations.  Note, I am not accusing the Clintons of anything, I love the Clintons and what they have done for our country (I just prefer Obama), I am only pointing out that some people tried to destroy them with similar accusations that anti-Obama people are making now.

Second, as a former member of an African American church and being a member of an African American family (note, I am White), I can say that resentment against Whites runs deep.  I think you would honestly find this sentiment in most Black Churches.  Does this make it right?  No, but please understand that 1/5 of blacks are in poverty, AIDS and drugs are destroying the Black community, and a sickening number of Black men will spend a good chunk of their life in prison.  This fuels resentment.  Blacks tend not voice this around Whites because they don't want to be labeled as "militant" which happens often.

Third, churches like Trinity fight things like poverty, gun violence, and are generally opposed to the war in Iraq.  I ask you to please look past Wright's inflammatory comments and look at the common ground you share with this Church's overall mission.

Fourth, Micheal Obama said "For the first time in my life, I am REALLY proud".  Not that she has never been proud.  You are misquoting her and if read this comment and continue to misquote her, what you are doing is dishonest.

I think both Clinton and Obama are great candidates.  I hope Obama wins, but will support Clinton if she gets the nomination.  I ask you to please give Obama a second look.
