            <title>Pelosi,Reed,Bush Dimes Worth Of Difference?</title>
            <description>Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reed performed like Republicans yesterday and gave President Bush what he wanted. More spy authority which basically kills the 4th Amendment and legislation that gives the Telco&#039;s immunity from prosecution. Democrats and Republicans are now the same thing...maybe they always have been. Yes George Wallace wherever you are you were correct, &quot;There ain&#039;t a dimes worth of difference between these two parties.</description>

            <title>A message to her supporters</title>
            <description>I wanted you to be one of the first to know: on Saturday, I will hold an event in Washington D.C. to thank everyone who has supported my campaign. Over the course of the last 16 months, I have been privileged and touched to witness the incredible dedication and sacrifice of so many people working for our campaign. Every minute you put into helping us win, every dollar you gave to keep up the fight meant more to me than I can ever possibly tell you. On Saturday, I will extend my congratulations to Senator Obama and my support for his candidacy. This has been a long and hard-fought campaign, but as I have always said, my differences with Senator Obama are small compared to the differences we have with Senator McCain and the Republicans. I have said throughout the campaign that I would strongly support Senator Obama if he were the Democratic Party&#039;s nominee, and I intend to deliver on that promise. When I decided to run for president, I knew exactly why I was getting into this race: to work hard every day for the millions of Americans who need a voice in the White House. I made you -- and everyone who supported me -- a promise: to stand up for our shared values and to never back down. I&#039;m going to keep that promise today, tomorrow, and for the rest of my life. I will be speaking on Saturday about how together we can rally the party behind Senator Obama. The stakes are too high and the task before us too important to do otherwise. I know as I continue my lifelong work for a stronger America and a better world, I will turn to you for the support, the strength, and the commitment that you have shown me in the past 16 months. And I will always keep faith with the issues and causes that are important to you. In the past few days, you have shown that support once again with hundreds of thousands of messages to the campaign, and again, I am touched by your thoughtfulness and kindness. I can never possibly express my gratitude, so let me say simply, thank you. Sincerely, Hillary Rodham Clinton</description>

            <title>No MSNBC ass clowns Hillary is not getting out of the race</title>
            <description>The delegate numbers, Obama 1850 Clinton 1696. Less than 200 between them. 154 pledge delegates to be exact.&lt;br /&gt;
Ah sorry Obama it takes 2,025 to win the nomination and you won&#039;t have that number going into the convention. So Obama pundits and sages can trash talk and whine all they want...boo hoo boo hoo. Senator Clinton is going all the way to the convention. Sorry NBC boys, Sister Hillary is not taking any baloney BS from you any time soon, and either am I.</description>

            <title>Senator Obama your 100% wrong about Americans</title>
            <description>Because you don&#039;t get it, but we live it, and until you live like the rest of us working class family folk you will never get it. I suggest you take a weekend off and bed down with a rural family trying to make ends meet and put food on the table. Until then your just another politician with lofty goals and fancy phrases. Annie Oakley Hillary Clinton may be, but remember this Senator Obama, Annie Oakley was born in a cabin in rural Western Ohio, so that&#039;s two slaps at rural Americans you made in the last few days. What you said and your reaction to the politics of your rival were down right childish and snobbish. Get out of your lofty cloud and down to earth where real people struggle to keep hope alive, and another thing Senator we are NOT scared or clingy or bitter, but WE ARE of a STRONG will and a STRONG heart!</description>

            <title>Chris Matthews an Obama Ass Kisser</title>
            <description>Sorry folks, Chris Matthews &amp; Hardball on MSNBC are not a TV show combination I think very highly of. Matthews loves to hear himself talk and doesnt really care a rats ass what the American people think, although he salivates over what ever poll he chooses to quote for his benefit. But if Matthews feels that candidates like Obama may get elected and come to greater power; Chris turns the kiss ass machine on in high gear as he did on today&#039;s show. As he has done with many Bush appointees at the height of Bushs power.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I heard Senator Obama last night on MSNBC on a so-called MSNBC college tour program, and for me it was nothing new. I have heard Obama speak on these issues many times. But Matthews and his pundits were all over Obama kiss kiss here and a kiss kiss there..ohh my God it was so sickening I almost puked up my dinner!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No Chris Barach Obama is not the second coming of Jesus Christ, sorry to be the first today to inform you of this.</description>

            <title>The real current Democratic Presidential Poll numbers</title>
            <description>Clinton&#039;s White House years become a boon&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.latimes.com/media/photo/2007-10/33428107.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Growing support&quot; width=&quot;500&quot; height=&quot;280&quot; /&gt; Barbara Davidson / Los Angeles Times GROWING SUPPORT: Senator and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton (D-NY) and former President Bill Clinton attend a fall kick-off campaign rally in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.Democratic voters are looking favorably on her experience as first lady, even on her failed healthcare effort, a poll finds.By Peter Wallsten and Janet Hook, Los Angeles Times Staff Writers &lt;br /&gt;October 24, 2007 WASHINGTON -- Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton has neutralized the political fallout from some of the most difficult moments of her eight years as first lady, with Democratic voters looking favorably on her failed effort to revamp healthcare and either supporting or having no opinion of her decision to remain loyal to an unfaithful husband, a new Los Angeles Times/Bloomberg poll shows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The positive impression of Clinton&#039;s White House years -- which is shared, though more faintly, among the broader public -- is helping propel her to a formidable lead over her rivals for the Democratic presidential nomination. Clinton leads the No. 2 contender, Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois, 48% to 17%.</description>

            <title>Hillary Clinton’s Innovation Agenda:</title>
            <description>Rebuilding the Road to the Middle Class &lt;p&gt;Merrimack, New Hampshire &amp;ndash; Today, Hillary Clinton laid out innovation policies that will create the jobs of the future, stimulate economic growth, and ensure American leadership in new industries. Hillary&amp;rsquo;s speech builds on the innovation agenda she announced earlier in the year, which will be critical to creating new, high-wage jobs in our global economy. Innovation is part of the economic blueprint for the 21st Century that Hillary is laying out this week to rebuild America&amp;rsquo;s middle class.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;Americans are concerned about the global economy &amp;ndash; and the policies of this administration have only made matters worse. I believe we need a new beginning to the 21st century, and a new economic blueprint. The core of my plan is creating the high wage jobs of the future &amp;ndash; and we&amp;rsquo;ll do that by restoring our role as the world&amp;rsquo;s innovation superpower. That&amp;rsquo;s what America does best. This country was built on innovation,&amp;rdquo; Clinton said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;As president, I will lead our nation to create millions of new jobs by investing in clean energy and doubling investments in basic and applied research. I&amp;rsquo;ll implement a national strategy to bring broadband &amp;ndash; and the information economy &amp;ndash; to every corner of our country. I&amp;rsquo;ll improve math and science education, and open up science and engineering to more of our people. And I&amp;rsquo;ll end the assault on science waged by the Bush Administration.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;As we enter this new world of economic, technological, and social change &amp;ndash; our dedication to innovation will be more important than ever. It will be the key to creating new jobs, to harnessing globalization and to rebuilding the road to middle class prosperity.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;u&gt;Hillary&amp;rsquo;s Innovation Agenda Will:&lt;/u&gt; Establish a national broadband strategy called Connect America &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;Create a $50 billion Strategic Energy Fund &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;Double the budget for basic and applied research at major federal agencies, and encourage more high-risk, high-reward projects &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;Strengthen education from pre-K to post-graduate study &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;Make the R&amp;amp;E tax credit permanent &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;Restore integrity to science policy by ending the Bush Administration&amp;rsquo;s war on science</description>
