The democratic race feels like it's been going on forever. Is there a light at the end of the tunnel or will Hillary and Obama fight until the finish?

    Its called a "democratic" process for a reason.....
    She should stay in until its all over at the convention.

    Hillary is a smart,, politically savvy woman with a genuine concern about the direction of this country and the welfare of its majority: the working class. As an independent (former Republican) I voted for her and at this stage will probably vote for Obama because I have such a disdain of where the Republican Party and George Bush have taken us. Obama is certainly an unknown with limited experience while McCain is older, hopefully wiser, and has "lots" of it. Unfortunately, his philosophies mirror George Bush and we need new direction and new order, even if it's flawed at times. I hope we can get beyond the blace/white/gender/personal issues and focus on what we can do to bring this country together, in spite of differences, and stop the bleeding at home while healing the wounded. From where I stand, affordable health care is more important than gay marriage or anti-abortion; creation of jobs at home is more important than huge corporate tax breaks and golden parachuts for those at the top; a tax system that works for all rather than a few and helps toward a reduction of the national debt; inspire and challenge people to achieve in their educational and work pursuits; become a leader and participant of world affairs instead of a bully who thinks we have the right answers and righ...''

Personally I think Hillary was our best shot, but we're still in a man's world whether young or old and the boys of the press corps made sure that was kept alive.

    B.O. won't drop out, but I don't think he's got the experience he needs or that he even knows how to explain what he's planning on implementing if he gets in office. He doesn't say anything except that he wants change. Well, duh, we all do! That's a no-brainer. He's not the man for the job.
    Hillary BETTER NOT QUIT!!! You hear that, girl! You're too smart to be dropping out!!! Don't do that to us!!!

    I THINK U SHOULD LET SOMEONE PROVE THEMSELVES BEFORE JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS. I UNDERSTAND THAT EVERYONE IS ENTITLED TO THEIR OWN OWN OPNION, NUT THERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU SHOULD KEEP TO YOURSELF. I THINK BOTH OF THEM SHOULD FIGHT UNTIL THE END. DROPPING OUT ONLY GIVES PEOPLE THE SATISFACTION THAT YOU WEREN'T READY TO MAKE A COMMITMENT. WHAT'S THAT GOING TO SOLVE? I'M TOO YOUNG TO VOTE BUT I F I HAD TO CHOOSE I WOULDN'T VOTE FOR ANYONE. THEY DON'T EXACTLY KNOW WHAT THEY WANT FOR THIS COUNTRY. THEY JUST SAY THE STUFF WE WANT THEM TO TELL US AND WE BELIEVE THEM. AND THE WHOLE CONTROVERSY ABOUT AFRICAN AMERICANS VOTING FOR BARACK BECAUSE HE'S BLACK IS SO OUT OF CONTEXT. HE ISN'T EVEN FULLY BLACK YOU BONEHEADS. BUT I DON'T THINK THAT MAKES HIM A RACIST AS CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED BY MANY! AMERICA ISN'T READY TO SUPPORT A WOMAN NOR AN AFRICAN AMERICAN PRESIDENT. WE NEED TO SETTLE THESE DIFFRENCES BEFORE WE CAN TRULY CLAIM CHANGE IN OUR SOCIETY. THINK ABOUT IT, IN YEARS TO COME THIS DECISIN YOU MAKE TODAY WILL AFFECT THE FUTURE GENERATIONS. HOW DO YOU WANT CHANGE TO TURN OUT?

    I don't know him, but I do know that Hillary can restore America's good name in the world, that got tainted over the past 8 years...
    She can also finish what she started, but was not allowed to finish when her husband was a president - quality Health care in the country.. She has balls, she is wise, and she is what America needs now, whether most people recognise it or not..

    Both Dem & Rep are running with the notion that there needs to be a change in Health care. No matter who wins the actual vote (dem or rep) there is so much cleaning up to be done to make up for the past 8 years. The question is who will do it the fastest and with the least amount of resistance from Congress and the American people?

    No matter who drops out or who stays in ...my vote goes for McCain. Clinton is not consistant with her voting and backing and Obama has distain for white Americans which can be read in his book. If Clinton wins it will be another Clinton era following much with her husbands. Not to mention if she screws up...it will tarnish the reputation of all future female runners. In the case of Obama...his biggest campaign is not that he's black but that he's fresh and NEW. New is not always better. There is more unknowns with Obama that may backfire and blow up in the faces of Americans. Not to mention ...at this time in American history, having a man of Arab background (that identifies more with Arab background than the white or black background) as President is not in the best interest of America. He has made it clear where his loyalty is when it comes to race in his book. "...I will side with the Arab people."

    Hillary won the popular vote--i.e., more actual "Democrats" want HER to be the nominee. So the TRUE "math" (the calculus) shows that SHE actually won the nomination, not Obama. Why? Because his momentum and popularity has been decreasing at an increasing rate since April and the Rev. Wright thing (which is never coming back, by the way), whereas hers has been increasing at an increasing rate. She won those last primaries by ever widening margins. With a 53% national "disapproval rating," Obama is virtually unelectable. The "Super Delegates" KNOW this fact, but they are being blackmailed by the Obama supporters who might "chimp-out" if they don't get their typical entitlement class way. "You owe us!" So it's basically now just Affirmative Action for Presidential candidates.
    Bottom-line, though: Obama can't beat McCain. Only Hillary can (check ALL the polls, guys!). If the Democrats nominate Obama, then we're overriding the will of the people and letting the corporate media choose our candidates--which is the end of America. Also, if Obama is the nominee, then the Democratic Party will be destroyed because he'll only have African-Americans and college kids as a coalition. These people are the "enemy within"/"hate America" crowd that are so-blinded by the Cult of Obama that they've lost touch with ...""'''"'"""''''""'''""""''

These people are the "enemy within"/"hate America" crowd that are so-blinded by the Cult of Obama that they've lost touch with the American people (trust me, "the war" just ain't that important to people anymore). Sure, Obama will win Manhattan, Hollywood, D.C., and a few college towns--and that's it. But, it'll be " '72 II "--McCain will carry 48 states or something (like Nixon did). Look: This thing was obviously RIGGED by the corporate media (they decided they wanted him and their "historical moment" from the get go) and stolen from Hillary. It's an outrage, and these people shouldn't be rewarded for what they've done. Unless he's "DIEBOLDED-IN," Obama can't win because most Americans see that he and his wife are anti-American and RACIST towards white people. Nothing they say or do can change that perception now (wait 'til people see Michelle Obama with Farrakan's wife talking about "whitey" and how America is "to blame" for Africa's problems--what... is he going to leave HER too, like he did his church and other strange friends? Who is this guy!?!?). Obama has no experience and no core values--he's just running on pure grandiose narcissism and unbounded arrogance (I think he must have a screw loose!). Well, SCREW him! If Hillary quits now, she should be forced to give all her money back to her contributors because she said she would take it all the way to the Convention. SEE YOU IN DENVER!

    I will not vote for Obama. Everyone is going on about how he is the first black to make it this far. If they would look at the facts he is only less than 8% black. His race is 50% caucasian and 42% Arab! His name is even Arab! I can't believe how everyone has over looked so much with him!

    I love them both. I really do for different reasons. I want Hillary on the ticket and pick up all her votes AND I love her brilliance. It would be great to happen with no Bill baggage so they can bring all their own talents to the table. We have such unparalleled talent and the Republicans looks like a wet dishrag by comparison. It's handed to us we MUST MUST MUST prevail and not let race or gender or anything get in the way. I want a united front. We can't lose as this country cannot lose when it is united.

    Regardless of what people say about her, Hilary can straighten the mess mr. Bush got us in... She is definitely smart & wise. She can be charming, when necessary, she can win affection and respect of many countries that grew to hate our country during the last 8 years.
    Nothing against mr.Obama... I just don't know the man... win affection respect countries grew hate country 8 years obama
