Folks...we are broke. The sea of debt that has been lapping at the railing of the deck for so many years has finally poured in. The party is over. It's China's turn now. It is the Asian century. Let's try to go out with more dignity than the British did. Whomever the next President is, he/she will have few choices. Folks…we are broke.

Senator Hillary Clinton, she is a great American and she does not break, the media has tried to break her, but all they do is make her more adored and loved every time they try another mean tactic. The “He Man Woman Haters Club” should give it up, because she is not going away, she is too strong to back down to any of you. Every day her strength and courage amazes me, and I’m sure there are many who will agree, more than 50% of the popular Democratic votes show this. If the Super Delegates give their votes to Obama, well they must secretly want McCain as their next president or have ties to G. E. and that’s what I will believe if they do it. I’m an old Democrat, we believe in God, Country, and Patriotism and we are a dying breed. I know it’s true, because I don’t want to associate with this party ever again if the Democratic Party turns to an unpatriotic politician from Chicago. He has not won the popular vote, but uses the system for his own purpose of shouting Hope and Change , and If the democratic party thinks that “Change” includes “Damning America” I want no part of them, and that’s why my husband is a Republican today! I do not think Hope or Change in Washington includes Nuclear, because Nuclear has been around as long I have. Hope and Change in Washington is not being backed by a handful of billionaires, or a company like G. E. it’s the same old game Senator Obama plays, and that is not “Change”, it’s the same old game.

McCain is a RINO so it doesn't matter that BOTH demonrats are crashing and burning. The Republican candidate is a liberal, so this election will be between a liberal and a Socialist. I think the Liberal will win. That is OK, President Bush isn't a conservative either. That is why his approval ratings have stayed so low. He has both the socialists and the conservatives pissed at him. Like, really, Who cares?

I bet you are the kind of person that says "orientated" and "irregardless". A rookie mistake like that makes you lose credibility big time.

I also believe that her story telling and inablility to take responsiblility for her mistakes. Have hurt her. I think we are going to get real sick of the last two candiates before its all over.

Actually, it might be. If Penn was the one who developed the brilliant strategy of starting the campaign a year ahead of schedule then he bears a big chunk of blame. Clinton's problem, and the one Obama now has, is the more people see the more they see to dislike, and Clinton was never likeable in the first place. A successful marketing strategy will accentuate the positive while minimizing the negative; Clinton's prolonged campaign allowed time for the negatives to fester and minimized all the positives (I'm assuming there were some positives). Had the campaign started per normal then Clinton likely wouldn't have imploded but now all she has left is "hope". “This is not the fault of Mark Penn.”

This is not the fault of Mark Penn. It might similar to blaming him for the bubonic plague of the Middle Ages in Europe. Hillary Clinton is merely a white woman. She is a second class citizen next to "Barry" Obama, a man of color. Clinton needs to get out of the way and make room for the Obama who has been appointed by the zeitgeist of our era to rule the world. Mark Penn is not capable of saving her. He does not possess godlike abilities. “Hillary had expected to win this nomination in a cakewalk, and yet…”
