19. Inexperienced, not ready to lead, tone deaf
no class, didn't shake her hand (not that it was offered to him), plagiarism, and now... anti-American!

I bet he wants to use the KORAN for his inauguration! And he won't even say the pledge of allegiance! And won't wear an American flag lapel pin!

OSAMA HUSSEIN!!!!

(oh yeah, :sarcasm: :sarcasm: :sarcasm:)

Desperation is behind this. Going negative is Clinton's last chance.

31. NOOOO!!!
She can't use the word "hope".

That's why it's her last CHANCE!

Bill was the man from Hope. But Obama has the "hope" thing going for him now. She can't use it. Ever.

14. These aren't a pair of "smears" -- they're a pair of sudden GAFFES from Obama and his campaign.
He shoots himself in the foot now and then. Who can forget the Snub?

You guys don't worry much about your young god's inexperience when it comes to governance, after all, once he becomes President, he'll be able to overcome that through his divine charisma which will rally the people behind all his proposals and initiatives, and his jedi mind tricks which will force even the Republicans on Capitol Hill to work with him. Right?

But Obama is ALSO woefully inexperienced as a campaigner (as is his wife.) Snubs, plagarisms, (and anti-Americanisms from Obamarosa) may not mean much in February in the middle of our long primary season. But in September? In October? They'll matter big time.

16. He's so woefully inexperienced, so gaffe-prone. Yet he's kicking Hillary's ass around the block
and down the street. She must be WORSE than awful!

34. Any inexperience that Barack has
is quickly overcome by the "experience" of Hillary's campaign advisors and her self-selected smear merchants.

21. Their slash and burn tactics come at a cost
I could never vote for her.

You know for years I could never understand why the Clintons inspired such hatred. After all his policies were moderate, the Country did very well during his presidency. So why was there such venom and hate directed at them? Well I guess I am guilty of looking the other way. Consciously or unconsciously I didn't pick up the fact that they were employing the same tactics (be it less refined and not as dishonest) as Karl Rove. I was able to clearly see those refined tactics in Rove. It was something that angered me beyond belief. I felt those tactics were dishonest, unethical and immoral. I honestly felt those tactics hurt the Country and I have publicly stated as much.
Wouldn't I be a major league hyporcrite if I suddenly changed my views on these tactics? How can I have spent years saying how bad these tactics were, and then suddenly turn around and say they are OK because a Democrat is using them? The Clintons and her supporters are acting exactly as Bush and his supporters acted. There is no difference other than the R is now a D. I didn't engage in politics for personal gain or a lust for power. I wanted the Country to be better. I wanted it freed from the right wingers and the way they did things. While there is little doubt Hillary will be more liberal than George Bush, I see little reason she will be any more honest or ethical. These traits matter to me, maybe I am an idealist, but I have to think that my voice matters. It matters enough that I have to send a message to the candidates and their supporters that politics, as usual, is no longer acceptable. It's perhaps the biggest reason I am supporting Obama. He is has Carter's ethics and honesty combined with Reagan's leadership and charisma (even if he led the Country in the wrong direct, there is no arguing his ability to lead). He is what I want in a president.

32. I hear ya.

And some of the stuff that been pulled like the lawsuit in Nevada... and the lies told about it, well...

What I said at the beginning was that if Hillary wins the nomination, I'll vote for her, but I won't contribute time or money, nor will I push the case for her election with my family, friends and co-workers... because I just can't be a hypocrite.

And, despite the number of posters here who say they are going to write her in if Obama wins the nomination, or won't vote at all... I'll still vote for her. We just have to win the White House. But it will be the most unenthusiastic vote I've ever cast for President in 30 years of voting.

If I change my mind on this... well, I just quietly leave DU as I don't believe you can be a Democrat and not vote for the Democratic nominee to the most important office in the land.

I hope the Hillary supporters that continue to make threats of not voting or doing a write-in for Hillary should she not be the nominee think hard about doing that.

33. I understand where you are coming from
It's a difficult ethical dilemma. It could be made more difficult if McCain conducts himself in a more honorable manner.
