Now that the dust has settled in Denver, and all the kool aid was drunk. with McCains pick for VP it is now even clearer what a mistake Obama made by NOT picking Hillary as his running Mate. Us Hillary fans who can NOT and will NOT bring our selves to vote for Obama we now have the Opportunity to help smash the glass ceiling that we helped Hillary, put those 18 million cracks in.
I have been a strick democrat since 1981, have donate much money to Democratic causes. this will be MY first year of NOT voting for the democrat on the ticket. This is the beaty of free speach adn voting our hearts adn councious that we DON NOT have to vote because we are told to.
When I found out that a fellow Michgan delegate was removed from the convention by obama's staff because They DID NOT want to VOTE for OBAMA and would rather vote for McCain. this shows me how Sen Obama DOES NOT believe in Free speech if you DO NOT agree with him.
HIS Policies and votes show how much of a risk he really is. he DOES not gaurantee he will place any other types of Supreme court justices any better than BUSH.
The Party officals of Dean adn pelosi are not any better, Ms Pelosi has handed President BUSH EVERYTHING he wanted adn more on a silver platter. she has NEVER stood up againgst him and will probally fight back on Obama's plans over Bush's/ What a SHAME.
This is why I WILL write in Hillary os not a vote for McCainbut as A VOTE AGAINGST Mr OBAMA and the DNC.
If More people did this it woud Show the leaders of the DNC that we will NOT just DRINK the Koolaid and tell us to vote for the candidate no matter how bad they may be because of a back room deal made in 2004 with Obama.

You are obviously not paying attention and McCain is counting on the American voters to be not so bright as to see through this for what it is. Pandering at the highest level because his ambition to be president is great than what is better for this country.

You are insulting Hillary Clinton each and every time you speak about writing her name in and not voting for Obama. Moreover, not picking Hillary as VP, IMHO had to do with Bill more so than Hillary. What do you do with the former president of the United States looking over your shoulder like that?

Love Bill, but if I were going to be president, I would not have picked Hillary for that reason.

It's true, McCain is counting on former Hillary supporters to not support Obama, thereby allowing him to fulfill his ambitions. However, let's not fool ourselves into thinking Mr. Obama doesn't have ambitions of his own. Anyone running for that office does.

Furthermore, I doubt his choice for VP had anything to do with Hillary or Bill -- it likely had to do with the fact that Joe Biden appeals to an entirely different section of voters (perhaps more remeniscent of McCain's followers, if you know what I mean) than those that followed Hillary or Obama. Ironically, McCain did about the reciprocal by choosing a female runningmate.

Obama, Dean and Pelosi would NOT be where they are now if it wasnt for Bill and Hillary.
Do you think they appreciated what the Clntons made possible for these people, let alone how MUCH BETTER this country was during the 8 years Bill was in the White House.
Obama Lied to the country and the Clintons when he Said Hillary would be on ANYONE"S Short lIst.
When she wasnt even considered by him further more alienating 18 million voters.
Don't insult the 18 million voters for Hillary by saying they would nt vte for McCain because of what Obamaa and the DNC did to the Clintons,
While I admit Bill is a lot to handle bill did and still does have VERY high approval ratings through out the world. This shoudl and does mean alot. but to stab them in the back, forcethem by outting a gun to thier head to support Obama if they want a career in the DNC was UNCALLED for.
Most of us Hillary SUpporter know what has happened , Obama has Done NOTHINg to earn our votes nor does he care if we cote for him,
when i called his office they could care less if I voted for Mccain over Obama even more reason to. he is too cocky to try to presude us to vote for him . we will see in Novemeber when all thse college kids DONT show up at teh polls like Normal how much he really needed the Hillary Vote

I don't doubt that Hillary would be on anyone short list she is brilliant. People have and still are giving Bill the respect and recognition he deserves for the wonderful 8 yeas he gave us during his presidency. Obama thanked him and gave his honor in his speech last night

What kind of judgement do you have if you are too egotistical to have a highly successful predecesor in your ear? A wise man would know how valuable that is.
  
Kool-Aid

I'm not sure what you're drinking, but I'm guessing it's not Kool-Aid if you think McCain-Palin will pick better SC justices than Obama-Biden.

If you are anything but a hardcore right wing conservative, McCain's pick for VP is against your interests.

It's as much an effront to decency as it is to intelligence. If nothing else, this beauty queen journalism major is just not qualified for the job.

If you're a Democrat or have ever been one, I'm the friggin' Queen of Sheba!

The delegate who was removed from her position (and replaced with another Hillary Clinton supporter) after she announced to the press (which the McCain campaign organized) that she was voting for John McCain was from Wisconsin.

TROLL

Hollywood, you must be kool aid drinking Obama praising fanatic.
You can not tell me if Obama Lost the primaries or GOD forbid in November ( which will happen)
you fanatics will be out in full force rioting in the streets.
Us Hillary Supporters are at least alot more adult and anti bigotry.
Everything with Obama if you say something againgst him your a racist or a bigot. but its fair game to verbally attack bill and hillary clinton.
lets face the Fact the Obama fanatics are WORSE WINNNERs than the Hillary people are loosers adn Wait til he looses in November it will be HIS fault and dean adn Pelosis fault it willhave NOTHING to do with the Clintons as they have done what the DNC adn OBAMA forced them to say and do like godo democrats
