********I’m So torn between Hillary & Barack … I’d love to give her a chance…*********
*********Then there’s always a but…

Hillary is the worst!

i dont know why everyone loves hillary i live in upstate NY and she hasnt done crap for us and she is supposed to be our senator

GO OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BRACK THE FUCKIN VOTE!!!

Can’t wait to see what she has to say at the State of Black Union tom. here in NO

Almost 1st,
Obama is raising false hopes, Nothing will change if he become president, racism will still exist, blacks will still be poor,, though an Obama supporter, i know full well that he is NOT the Messiah.

I do not think America needs a female WHITE president. I personally think we need a BLACK president! Race is a big issue in the US. I feel with Barack Obama most of the issues- race, gender, class etc- would be worked on. I care less about Hilary Duff!

Who wrote that biased as intro into this topic? Shameful reporting !!! Kill dat shyt Do it gotta be that obvious you a Barrack supporter, what happeend to reportig skill sof the past without the reporters biased opnions stuck to it????

Hillary 08

then Barrack if i have too.

Hmm, well.She be ok.She can go to the black state Union all she want, but don’t mean really anything.Maybe she not doing to well because her health care plan is somewhat a fantasy.Wish the best though.

@ #3, I totally agree. I’m from NY but live in ATL; and I still have family living in NY and they too have said that since Hillary became Senator, everything she said that she would do for NY, she has not fulfilled or kept her word. Now why would we want someone like that for President?

I can’t figure out WHY people automatically assume that, because Obama is black, he’s gonna be the savior for the entire black race. All your skinfolk ain’t your kinfolk. No matter who becomes our next president, there’s no way in hell they can fix in 4 yrs. what Bush fucked up over the last eight.

WOW…..concreteloop posts nothing but positivity on Obama and bashes Hillary to the utmost…….Hillary can’t win for losing lol! What a sad day in politics!

It’s alright Hillary…..I’m with u ALL THE WAY!

I guess Mccain will be our next president because some of you guys are so fooled! It’s a set-up by the Republicans, and people can’t see it! Oh we’ll………….

I’m sick of both of them actually. All propaganda.

@ Cliff: you must be from Buffalo New York. Buffalo looks like Bagdad. Torn down buildings dark and grey…

doesnt get anymore biased then this article..

I agree #10….but you can’t tell some people that! You better watch out because they’re coming for your head in 5 seconds lol! I agree with u 100%….I love this site, but it is so bias when it comes to Obama!

“SOLUTIONS FOR AMERICA”

HILLARY WILL WIN TEXAS AND OHIO AND SHE WILL BE THE DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE!

I ALSO FIND IT FUNNY THAT HILLARY IS SPEAKING AT THE STATE OF THE BLACK UNION , BUT OBAMA ISNT..

HES BEEN ABLE TO HEAVILY COUNT OF THE BLACK VOTE.. BUT WHEN ITS TIME TO STEP UP AND DO SOMETHING FOR THE BLACK COMMUNITY, HE CANT TAKE AN EVENING OFF FROM THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL??

CHOOSE YOUR CANDIDATES WISELY PEOPLE….

News You Should Know About Politics: Obama Got Robbed In N.Y., Elections Board Says; Clinton Steps Up Heat On Surging Obama
Posted February 19, 2008
Obama got robbed in N.Y., the Elections Board says
The state Board of Elections says that Sen. Barack Obama got shafted in the New York primary. In fact, The New York Daily News reports, several districts actually show that zero votes were recorded for Obama, when in reality he had gotten hundreds. In nearly 80 districts – even in mega-Black Harlem – he got zilch, while in other largely Black districts the tallies were far off the mark. At first, results in the 94th district, where Harlem is seated, showed a 141-0 sweep for Hillary Clinton, but a recount changed the tally to 261-136, according to the News. Describing the miscalculations as “outrageous,” Brooklyn City Councilman Charles Barron told the paper, “I think this is an all-out effort to stop a campaign that is about to make history and render America’s first Black president. We need some kind of independent or federal agency to investigate this.”

Pamela on Politics: It appears that Camp Clinton has stepped up its attacks on a surging Sen. Obama. Read here and comment.

I agree. This was a biased post. I am a fan of Obama and a serious supporter. However, for the sake of “reporting” I think this article needs a different tone. You can report on the matters at hand and still be a supporter of your choice candidate without the bashing tone. Feel me? I have a good friend who works for national public radio and they arent even allowed to inform people who they are supporting because they are employees of the journalist/new/reporting industry. Now, I know concreteloop isnt CNN but come on…take the edge off the article.

Just a thought. Just a few thoughts, lol. Still love ya J. Dakar.

I believe the issue that some of you have with this article being “biased” is the introduction. Please keep in mind that that information comes from sources such as CNN and The New York Times; that means that those outside sources do not represent the views and opinions of Concrete Loop.

Peace and blessings,
J. Dakar

This article is clearly biased. Obviously concrete loop is rooting for O’Bambi

lol @7….when i came back i was like, i couldve sworn the first paragraph was ended with, “but she wont get them”….i was kinda thinking wow lol…….but yeah, OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT!

The intro said:

Sen. Hillary Clinton is apparently bad with money, borrows words from her husband and John Edwards and has an unrefined palate.
_________________________________________________

You also forgot to add, she’s riding slowly by, while assessing the damage of a wreck caused while a police was escorting her motorcade through Texas.

My prayers go out to his family.

The media as a whole is biased to why are you people complaining? You not gone read nothing at CNN, MSNBC, FOX News that aint biased so get over it. If you don’t like what concreteloop has to say don’t visit the site. I’m not trying to sound rude but is is just that simple.

By the way
The media isn’t talking about how Barack was robbed in the NY primary or the fact that an ethics claim was filed in a CA court today so who is really getting the short end of the stick Barack or Hillary?

#23: Your eyes are not deceiving you, it did include the statement “But she won’t, though.”

It goes without saying that Clinton (nor Obama) will indeed win all 444 delegates. The Democratic Party awards delegates evenly among the candidates based on the proportion of the vote they receive, so it is virtually impossible that one candidate can decisively win each and every available delegate.

That statement added to the already “biased” introduction and was removed.

Peace and blessings,
J. Dakar

she sure stuck her foot in her mouth last night

Say what you will about Hillary. I’m loving that photo!!! BARACK ALL THE WAY!!!

Thank you @ 25

I love my black people sooo much but you guys have to be realistic about this election. Obama is a very intelligent candidate. He’s actually comparable to Bill Clinton at the time he was running for office. But this is all a setup by the Republican Party. I know every bodies like “YEAH RIGHT” but it’s true. Remember Super Tuesday when Hilary and Obama were in a race for delegates. Well the very next day Obama’s campaign raised 7.1 million dollars. Now you tell me which one of our black leaders donated that much money to his campaign. You can’t because I checked. That money came from several companies that are ran by Republicans. The only black leader that gave that type of money was Oprah and that was 1.4 million the week before. So to all my Black People , Please vote the right way. Don’t be IGNORANT. Let me give you the actual definition of that word ( IGNORANT- 1. lacking in knowledge or training; unlearned: an ignorant man. (2).lacking knowledge or information as to a particular subject or fact )

P.S.- Do me a favor and visit your neighborhood bookstore and tell me why there’s about 10 different books bashing Hilary but there are only 2 or 3 books about Obama and their all praising him. “Go Figure”

I live in Chi-town and Obama has done nothing nothing nothing for Illinois. Stop acting like he is the 2nd Coming of JFK people. He’s nothing but a Bush in Black Sheep Clothing. He’ll be just as bad a president but on the extreme liberal side. I really think half of you don’t even know what you are voting for.
Do you realize the black community suffers the most from lack of healthcare insurance. More people die in America everyday from lack of healthcare insurance than do in the Iraq and Afghanistan War in a year!!! This is one of the most if not the most important issue affecting the American and African-American community. And Obama’s plan already leaves out 15 million people and probably won’t even get passed. Many medical and economic experts even agree that Obama’s plan is jsut bad bad bad. The fact that Clinton has been working on it since 92 is evidence that she is extremely serious about getting universal healthcare for everyone. No one will be left out including our people. And yes both Obama’s and Clinton’s plans are mandated and may penalize people, but Clinton’s plan is less likely to penalize people because it will be free for those who can’t afford or it subsidies will be offered. Plus premiums will be kept down for the rest of us if everyone is required to get it.
Secondly, don’t believe Obama when he says he will bring troops home by 2009. He’s lying to you. He knows he can’t do it because of the amount of money that we have invested in Iraq and the reconstruction efforts. He just uses it as a talking point. Plus Obama continues to fund the Iraq war!!! So he has no claims to say he is agains it. Lastly Obama’s economic plan is completely unworkable and his reforms in social security will place a huge tax burden on the youth.
Obama also talks about reaching across the table and talking with our enemies. LOL. So he must really think that he has some kind of higher power to negotiate with Kim Jon IL or Osama Bin Laden and they will all bow down to the awesome’s of the Great Obama. LOL. Seriously people. Obama has no clue what he is doing. He shows he’s naivety time and time again with his vague answers and preacher like style. Who cares about style if you don’t have good plans and no means or now how to implement. The fact that he doesn’t grasp our problems and does not deal with them realistically is further evidence that this man is not yet ready to be president. But hey, most people aren’t voting for him on policy. They are voting for him to either a) make history or b) because he says empty words like change and hope. You’ll soon learn that real change will only come through actual experience and realistic plans.

By the way Hillary is clearly the superior candidate and should be the democrats nominee. The democrats are so blind that they can’t see this. Wait until Nov or January and you’ll be wishing Hillary was back.

agreed with BSP on this!!

http://www.politico.com/n...ws/stories/0207/2654.html

I’ve been thinking about this for a long time, but the republicans want Obama to be nominee so they can nail him. That’s why they keep praising him and saying they’ll vote for him. They won’t vote for him in the general election. They will ban together to fight him out of the white house. Do you think the republicans and the conservative base are this stupid. Why do you think they are hollering fighting internally right now about McCain being conservative enough or reganite enough for the republican party? But they will support him to the death in Nov. and demonize Obama. They won’t vote for liberal in Novemember they will ban to destroy him.

They are afraid of Hillary Clinton because they know they will lose and some republican women and even republicans may vote for her and that they really don’t mind her presidency. Listen Dems be smart about this. Think about this! I knew this all along because I used to work in DC this is a game and trap for the Dems. They are setting Obama up big time!!! Dems please think wisely before you vote. This is a set up by the Republicans. They will eat Obama alive in the general election. We don’t know anything about him and they have so much ammo about including his lack of experience, his islamic background, his liberal views, and face it this country is so racist especially in the south. They won’t vote for him in the generals.

Look think about it. Hillary won blue states which are Cali, NYC, northeast states. He won in the southern states in the democratic primaries. Those are always red states in the general. This is a set up. They know they can’t face Hillary Clinton because her dirt is out in the air and open plus she is moderate and she can face them in a debate. She’s not scared of them, she wants to fight them. Obama won’t be able to handle it. The racist, bigots and conservatives are setting him up. Dems please rethink your votes before the next primaries come up or John McCain will be the next president.

Republicans don’t hate Hillary Clinton. They fear her in the general election because they can’t beat her!

Hillary Clinton bad far is the superior candidate and has shown this time and time again in numerous debates and last night as well. But the democrats are so blind they can’t see this right now. But come Nov. or January, you’ll be wishing Hillary Clinton was back.

Why do you think people are bashing HiIlary?One thing SHE WAS FOR THE WAR!If you for the war people going to take stabs, people will remember you was for the war even if you now say their not.Her health care plan is bogus.Her “35 years Experience” doesn’t walk the walk.Only reason why people compare Obama to JFK because he didn’t have much experience but did his best.So why do people call Clinton the first Black president then?I don’t understand that either.Have any problems with that?Mostly likely not.Black folks always want the CHEAP way out instead of working toward goals.Why you think we still setting ourselves 200 years back.LAZYNESS.Thinking it take one day to fix a problem.Lazy asses.One thing about the insurance, black folks have insurance they just have old-school insurance and don’t want new insurance.

And please believe it’s just not blacks voting for Obama.

BSP PLEASE PROVE THAT REPUBLCAN’S FUNDED HIS CAMPAIGN, PLEASE DO I WOULD LOVE TO SE THAT!

JAYLA06, I DON’T THINK OBAMA IS BLACK PEOPLE’S SAVIOR , THAT’S TO SAY WE LOOKING FOR HANDOUTS, AND HE’S NOT EVEN RUNNING AS A “BLACK CANDIDATE” THOUGH THE BLACK VOTE WILL HELP HE CAN’T WIN WITH IT. YOU NEED TO DO RESEARCH ON WHO IS VOTING FOR HIM, AND WHO IS MAKING THE HUGER DIFFERENCE WHEN THEY VOTE.

LET ME BREAK IT DOWN FOR YOU, WHITE MEN AND WHITE WOMEN, AND WHEN HE WON THE POTOMAC PRIMARIES IT HAD ALOT TO DO WITH THE LATINO VOTE. NOW BLACK PEOPLE VOTING FOR HIM IS A GREAT THING AND HAS IMPACTED THE ELECTIONS BUT IT WON’T CLOSE THE DEAL.

NOW TO THE BLACK SAVIOR COMMENT, I THINK EVERYONE REALIZES THAT THIS IS LAREGELY ABOUT AMERICA, NOT JUST BLACK PEOPLE, BECAUSE OBAMA CAN DO SO MUCH IN DEALING WITH INSTITUTIONALIZED RACISM.. THE MESSAGE IS, IT STARTS WITH US, FROM THE BOTTOM UP, IF PEOPLE, YES BLACK PEOPLE REALLY EMBRACE THE MESSAGE IT WILL WORK , REGARDLESS OF WHO IS NOMINATED.

IM SO TIRED OF PEOPLE SAYING BLK PEOPLE ONLY LIKE OBAMA BECAUSE HE’S BLACK , AS THOUGH WE ARE NOT SMART ENOUGH TO MAKE AN EDUCATED DECISION., AS IF BLACK PEOPLE ARE NOT MORE CRITICAL OF THEIR OWN THAN ANY OTHER….
AND IT IS BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT WE CRITICIZE OUR OWN BLACKS MORE THAN OTHERS, THAT MANY OF YOU ARE NOT OBAMA SUPPORTERS.

A BLACK MAN CANNOT BE PRESIDENT IN AMERICA
A BLACK MAN CANNOT SPEAK SO ELOQUENTLY AND ACTUALLY BE ABOUT SOMETHING IN AMERICA,
WE ARE ALL BEING DUPED BY THE SYSTEM AND IN THE END A WHITE PERSON WILL WIN, JUST BECAUSE HE’S WHITE AND NOTHING ELSE.
WE DON’T UNDERSTAND POLITICS SO WE SHOULD VOTE FOR THE WHITE WOMAN BECAUSE SHE HAS A BETTER CHANCE.

WORDS OF THE CYNICS AND DOUBTERS. SAME SHIT THEY PROBABLY SAID ABOUT MARTIN LUTHER KING WHEN HE WAS FIGHTING FOR EQUALITY, IT CAN’T HAPPEN IT CAN’T THIS IT CANT THAT.

I’M BEGINNING TO THINK WE DON’T EVEN DESERVE CHANGE.

You people kill me with your conspiracy theories. SIT YO DUMB @SSES DOWN. and stop watching all the damn movies. LOL

But you should vote for who you think will be the best and not because maybe it’s a republican set up

@ 30 & 33

Man I been trying to tell these Obama supporters that for MONTHS!!!, But most of his supporters are so damn hypnotized until they don’t want to hear anything. REPUBLICANS ARE CROSS VOTING!!! They know exactly what they are doing, even on MSNBC this morning they said a lot of anti-Hillary Republicans probably are voting in early Texas voting just to knock her off. I am so with you number 33, I live in the south, and yeah he won the DEMOCRATIC primaries and caucuses, but he will not win these states in a general election. These southern baptist and conservatives down here are not going to go with him, IT’S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. Yet, the democrats are being so stupid and letting the best candidate slip right through their hands. The Republicans fear Hillary plain and simple. And Obama wants to try and be everyones friend and in this world I live in everyone is not going to like you. You know he’s not just being setup, we are all being except the ones that is seeing what is going on. I really pray people can see what’s going on before it’s too late. I am not trying to be pessimistic but I live in the real world and the Republicans have almost completed their plan.

>> this is SO UP my alley i have to write a 5 page paper on Hillary Clinton for my ****government class.. U GUYAS ALWAYS COME THRU I LOVE U WITH ALL

*&***** MY HEAry!!!!! (heart).. oops

>>> lol at Obami..

Shardonda, how is Hillary’s healthcare plan ‘bogus”? Do you even know what is states? I highly doubt it by the fact that you use the word bogus with no evidence of how her plan is bad. Many experts agree including Sanjay Gupta, MD, of CNN that Hillary’s healthcare plan is superior to Obama’s and his plan does leave 15 million people out. Many experts agree but if you researched you would know her plan is superior to his. You only know what you hear or what you want to believe. You probably don’t even know Obama’s Healthcare plan either.

And there is this huge misconception going around that Hillary voted for the war. 1) the vote was for the president to use force as he deemed NECESSARY and 2) the president could ONLY proceed if he complied with the Security Council’s resolutions in regards to Iraq. This is not a vote to go to war ,but a vote to authorize the president to use force when NECESSARY with CONDITIONS. It was Bush that proceeded with the war and not Hillary. Obama as a lawyer and U.S. Senator clearly knows that this is what the vote meant and he blantantly lies to you so you’ll vote for him and he’ll seem anti-war. Even though OBAMA CONTINUES TO FUND THE WAR!. Lastly in 2002 80% of the country was for the war, the media was for the war, Colin Powell even was for the war and was mislead by the Bush administration to believe that this war was right. John Edwards voted for the war but somehow he is touted as this democratic saint. Hillary is the only one that has been crucified for this war as if she is the scapegoat. Even though most of the country was for it at the time!!! And her one vote would never have changed the way Bush proceeded and how he executed this war. Obama even praised Bush afterwards. Obama can never claim he was against the war because he was NEVER in the Senate to vote for the war. The real blame should go to Bush for not adhering to the vote and conditions of the senators and for his poor execution of the war.

By the way, JFK was a terrible president so don’t believe that camelot myth. He is known for his charisma and youth and great speeches. Yeah sounds like someone else I know.

@34 & 35

You are naive, it’s a setup just like in 2004. It’s not even about black and white, he is just not the right candidate. Kerry was a horrible candidate, and the republicans knew it and they praised him through the nomination election process and then tore him to pieces in the general election. He was also up in the polls saying he would beat Bush in general election before he got the nommination, and we all see what happened. THE SAME CRAP IS HAPPENING AGAIN. I have nothing against the man, but they know what they are doing and his supporters are too naive too see or just don’t want to see it cause they are “inspired and filled with hope.” Get real and give me a break.

My first post was for 30 and 32, cause 33 is another naive obama supporter.

its sad how uneducated most posters are on here, reading their replies makes me want to know what they look like and where they live.

Concreteloop is obviouslyshowing support for Obama.

lol i am black and most black people i know are just complainers and whiners, don’t speak if you don’t fucking vote.

@ # 30 Wack Music

You compared Barck’s health care plan to Hillary’s implying that her plan is the better plan. As you have noted Hillary has been working on her plan since 92′, is her plan suppose to be so great because she has working on it for 16yrs. If it was great it would have gotten passed when her husband was in office. Hillary wants to offer health care to illegal immigrants, I have no problem with people comming to America ( I would prefer if they came legally) but why should I pay for their health insurance when I can’t even afford my own?

She wants to mandate insurrance! Barack is right people want insurance they just can’t afford it. I don’t want nobody taking anything extra out of my checks they take enough out already. And NO Barack is the the black peoples saviour but what he can do is bring people together, a president can not make calls on his own congress and legislators have to agree as well Barack can work with them because he is easy to get alon with. Republicans HATE Hillary they will not pass anything with her name on it just because of who she is. She dosn’t want to work with them just like they don’t want to work with her.

Have a nice day!

i know this is an entertainment blog, but you could of put a better effort on that title and opening, things like this make us look bad…

how is she going to say she doesn’t make predictions and then say she let’s people know what she will do

*sigh*
i agree with #2

and all you people of color who are for hillary over obama have been brainwashed
crab in a barrel syndrome is a bitch!

Im a college student, and as far as i know and informations from my personal researched, Obama hasnt shown any big plans or “bridging” to black people. Hillary spoke to more black meetings and press such as college than Obama. I encourage people to vote for the right president and not base on color.

What is wrong with us as a people..this mob mentality..the tone of that opening is unforgiveable and the writer should be ashamed…I support Barack but the closer we get to this being over with the more ashamed i am of my people for how they have thrown this woman under a bus behind a man whom just two years most of us, if not all of us, except his constituents and book readers, even knew he existed…

WE ALWAYS LIVE UP TO OUR STEREOTYPES….A mess…

I really believe that most people in America are still not ready to see a woman hold the position of President. If Clinton and Obama were both men, people would say that Clinton was the most qualified. If they were both women, people would again say Clinton was the most qualified. And if Clinton was a white man and Obama was a black woman, they would definitely say Clinton was the most qualified. It is a well known fact that most people in the Dem party were hoping for a Clinton/Obama ticket. They would have most likely won in ‘08, and re-election in ‘12, then Obama would have the experience needed to make a successful run for President in ‘16. Somehow, “someone” convinced him to run against her this year. They knew that most Black people would vote for a Black man, regardless of his experience. Like someone previously said, raising over 30 million a month is VERY suspicious. No real dirt or negative press yet on Obama is also very suspicious. “Someone” wants Clinton out of this race. If this happens, watch how soon the dirt and negative press against Obama begins to surface. It’s all a trap people. Like Spike said, “WAKE UP!!!!!” An Obama/Edwards ticket will not win in ‘08.

These “conspiracy theories” are crazy. How does anyone know what is true and what is not? Poilitics is a dirty ass game. This is a set up..this is this or that…I’m Democrat and I am voting for the Democratic nominee, I support Obama, but I am not against Hillary.
No matter who you vote for VOTE! Not 4 more years of republicans!

thanks …itsalwaysbeenme & flylike&sharonda… I couldn’t get in here fast enuff. Hilary and Bill have done things during their term in the white house that were questionable at best, not to mention the near impeachment he faced. So when we discuss “experience” and “ready on day one” what exactly are we to expect to happen when they reenter the white house? What has Hilary done? Besides hearing over and over again about how she voted on the war which is negative, give me a reason that is positive? Now, if some think that black folks are voting based on mere race and obligation, it is exactly the stupidity of the ignorant. Do your research, who do you think the majority of voters are, certainly not us, that was proven in Iowa when Obama won. WHat dirt do you think is lingering under neath the rocks about him, don’t you think it would have come out by now? NYTs just put out a smear article on John McCain the front runner on the GOP side! Use your common sense, they don’t want Obama to win the nom. because they see that he could actually win against McCain not Hilary (too much baggage with her) We don’t have alot of choices People but I think we can do without another years of Clinton. BTW, Barack didn’t choose his middle name, he didn’t choose the grade school he attended. He did choose to practice Civil Law, dedicate his career to publice service and now he’s running for president. Does he not as a American have the RIGHT to do that???? Who are you to say he’s not worthy, if he isn’t then you aren’t, think about it.

Onemil02, glad someone else is not blinded by the power of Obama Christ.
It is true that many republicans are voting for Obama in open primary states like Wisconsin and Texas just so Hillary will not get the nomination. They have no intention of voting for St. Obama in the general election. They are going to destroy that man’s political career. Think about it. Why have they been so silent about Obama for 3 months and have been ragging on Hillary for those 3 months? All Republicans on Fox News and Rush Limbaugh say Obama is likable. That’s all they say even Karl Rove. But they trash Hillary. If they really wanted to run against Hillary wouldn’t they just be silent about Hillary and trash Obama to death until he doesn’t get the nomination and then blast Hillary in the general?

I kept thinking to myself. Hillary is moderate and fairly bipartisan in the Senate so why would the Republicans rag on her so much. Duh?! They don’t want to run against her because they know she can win. This is about Power people and not Policy. They hate Obama’s policy worse than they hate Clinton’s and they love Power and control even more. Do you really think they are gonna give up all the power they have in the White to Obama?? Many Washington Insiders won’t tell you this but some republicans and republican women will vote for Hillary. Read thir article and watch this video here from Joe Scarborough, MSNCB correspondent and former republican U.S. Senator from Florida.
http://www.huffingtonpost...e-republicans-really-sc_b _70885.html

Meanwhile you have to ask yourself why would any republican vote for an African-American liberal with no experience, no military experience, with a potentially islamic background?? Democrats are so dumb. Republicans have done a great job strategizing in this election. They say they hate Hillary enough so that we vote her out and put Obama up to the fire so he can be easily defeated in the general.

Recently it’s looking like Obama may secure this nomination and the Republicans realize that Obama is getting to big for his britches, I’m starting to hear Republicans including Sean Hannity, Karl Rove and Rush Limbaugh talking about him. And what they are saying you aren’t gonna like. They are calling him a liberal and a socialist. They call his wife unpatriotic and everything. They are just now starting to hit him when they are sure that he is getting the nomination. Karl Rove even wrote an article about his dislike for Obama. Read it here: http://online.wsj.com/art...opinion_main_commentaries

Please people and this is only Feb. It will get worse for real if he secures the nomination. He has no chance against McCain in the general eletion who I gurantee you may pick Colin Powell as his VP. Democrats you have been warned.

I’m in love with #30…..their is nothing left to say because you said it all! Your words are the truth!

#34…..I respect your comment, but what are you talking about? You most definitely don’t want to go toe to toe with me in politics AT ALL! Go read the other comments I left in the previous post referencing last night’s debate in Texas.

Meet me back on this site when November hits…..I can guarantee you if Obama gets the Democratic nomination……John Mccain will be our republican president (just watch)!

BTW…..What is your definiton of change?…….What “plans” have Obama come up with to see out his supposed changes?…….Why did Obama vote “present” while in Congress and in the House on important issues time, after time, after time (if you don’t stand for anything then you’ll fall for nothing)? Why is he leaving 20 million people with no healthcare? What is his plan to see out his healthcare “talk”? What is his plan in getting “ALL” troops home from Iraq in 2009? He has no plans…..it’s all just talk (the Republicans will eat him alive on these issues), just wait! Hillary has plans to see out her “change”, and the members of the Republican Party are aware of her plans, just as they know all Obama has is his mouth with nothing to back it! You can’t just talk change….It takes a leader with PLANS to see the changes through. You can’t have CHANGE without PLANS!

HILLARY CLINTON…….ALL THE WAY!!

@52

If you can’t see this is a setup you are naive. What 53 just said makes so much sense a white republican voting for a very liberal half black man, with no experience in military, foreign policy, or nothing. It doesn’t add up at ALL. They did it in 2004 with Kerry’s sorry behind and they are doing it again. They praise him first to knock him down in the end. @53 you are right, the Republicans were saying how “likable” is was at the beginning, but just this past week they are already starting to get on him. And if he gets the nod, that’s when the flood gates are going to open, and when they do, they are going to flood big time. That ignorant wife of his didn’t make it much better with what she said. But that’s enough cause you can’t tell this Obama people nothing, just holla back in novemeber if he gets the nod and loses in a land slide and I will have my t-shirt on, “Don’t Blame Me, I Voted for Hillary”.

Are you serious? You are qouting Karl Rove and RL!!!! As if anything they say would remoting be truthful or forthcoming…..surely you jest!

What’s the deal

@Onemil02

So what you are saying is that his supports shouldn’t support him or “have hope” in other words people who believe in Obama should just vote for Hillary because it’s a Republican conspiracy? You need to give me a break. You would have been one of those slaves who would rather stay in slavery because there is no hope. You need to give me a break.

AMEN #55………Ignorance of politics is not an excuse! That’s what my t-shirt will read.

Is CL banning comments now?

To: 45.Have Not Thought of a New User Name

Please don’t criticize a woman who has been working tirelessly for healthcare for everyone. Her plan was knocked down the first time because the Republicans controlled Congress. Big surprise there. Also because the harry and louise mailers attacking her plan. Blaming her for outsiders destroying her plan is just ignorant.(Yep, the same ones O’bambi sent out to scare people away from Hillary’s healthcare plan recently)

So yes, she is trying again to get her plan going because people NEED IT and it’s A RIGHT and she thought she could do that when she became president until O’bambi came along and mesmerized every latte liberal, spoiled college student and negro with hope and change rhetoric and this false belief he will lead them to the promised land of Koolaid and Oprah’s Favorite Things 2008.

You people are clearly to cynical and biased of your own people to know the facts and they are as follows:

If Senator Obama wins the democratic nomination which could happen based on the numbers, not bias or skin color or idealism of him being the great black hope, if he wins based on hard numbers and they do not use the “super delegates” against him then he will be running for the Presidency of the United States of America. The Republicans ain’t gat shit to do with that.

Again based on fact, ie the numbers he is ahead of John McCain in the popular vote and will make an excellent opponent for the Republican party. People will vote for Obama, because the alternative is keeping a party that advocates and will continue to advocate the war, which is hurting your economy.

Whether he is black or white is of no consequence, can he do the job, yes he can, ca he win office YES HE CAN!!!!

On a side note when did you forget the power of Black Pride? Pride in the fact that a young black man, from a single family home, with a black strong woman by his side is running and could possibly be your President, how can you not own, and embrace this moment in your history!!!

Team Hillary!

and I agree with #51…most Americans do not seem to believe that a woman has what it takes to run this country. Well, I disagree…and anyone that has closely watched the debates she see that her cognitive reasoning is superior to her male counterparts. *winks*

And he also said in the DEBATES LAST NIGHT that people will BE PENALIZED if they don’t abide by his plan to keep people from avoiding the system. But the huge difference is that Hillary’s plan does not leave out 15 million people like O’bambis. Guarantee those 15 million people will be …guess what…black people!! But hey if you can eat hope and change pays the bills then by all means go for it.

And another thing, as noted in the debate last night, their ideals on healthcare reform, foreign policy and ending the war are not that different, it their approach to the same cause that differs.

61. How can you insinuate that Senator Obama in anyway has hindered Senator Clinton’s attempt to reform healthcare, that is ignorant for the mere reason that there are more people in the Senate/Congress than these two candidates, if a democracy and there must be a vote.

Change is an arduous and painful task, be a agent not a hinderance of the process, with your way of thinking!!!!!

[…] Amicus wrote an interesting post today onHere’s a quick excerpt(Photo: Richard Phibbs). Sen. Hillary Clinton is apparently bad with money, borrows words from her husband and John Edwards and has an unrefined palate. She also needs to win the upcoming Democratic primaries to keep her campaign alive … Read the rest of this great post here Posted by […]

LOL at 66 so now concrete loop is stealing words from other websites. Further proof they are rooting for O’bambi.

I can’t believe yall talking about how this article is biased. If you’re getting your political news from Concreteloop you already behind the 8 ball.

this site is about Aretha’s titty balls, Ne-Yo’s granpa hairline and stuff like that. Fall back and go to cnn.com

oh 66, and 67, the site is actually a link to Concrete loop and they quoted this site. man yall want to hate on CL so bad you don’t even check the facts.

The State of the Black Union, which is to be held in N. Orleans this year, was to have Barack Obama. However, Tavis Smiley has been known to openly bash Obama in the public, while giving Hillary a free ride. Now I am not one way or the other, but why would Obama show up to an event that he is not going to feel invited.

@ ITSALWAYSBEENME

Let me tell you something real quick since you want to reference slavery. I have hope and inspiration but I am no fool. Along with you hope and inspiration you need to have plan for the change. The slaves had hope and inspiration and eventually were freed, but it was a process carried out by different plans of change and it didn’t happen over night. If I want to hear the preacher I go to church on Sundays. He gives me words of hope and inspiration along with my beliefs. Obama has no real plans to carry out his hope and YES WE CAN. NO GIVE ME A BREAK and get real. But as I can see you are one of his typical supporters and are blinded by his color since you want to reference slavery. Get real and come correct.

@62

Another one, lol. First off most of the states primaries and caucuses are open to anyone. You don’t have to be a democrat to vote in a democratic primary or caucus. Anyone can vote independent, democrat, or republican. So he can get the nod by anyone not just registered democrats.

Also, you want to reference polls that have him beating McCain in November. Hello, this is just February and things quick. These same polls had Kerry beat Bush around the same time as now back in 2004. Kerry was up by a bigger margin than Obama is, which was like 20%. We all see how that turned out. He has basically been getting a free pass from the media until he gets the nod so that can eat him alive and I bet them polls change then.

Third, your last statement shows you are just voting for him because his black. I have plenty of pride in my race and a proud African-American citizen. Yet I am suppose to vote for him just because he is “young black man, from a single family home, with a black strong woman by his side” as you said. HELL NO. Cause I don’t feel his is the man for the job. There are a lot of black men in his position, but can they run the country, I think not. Sorry that is just ignorant.

Wack Music, Jayla06, REPUBLICANS FOR OBAMA, Leah and James yal feel me and see what is happening for what it is, A SETUP!

O course i’m talkin about that kool-aid that Obama has all of yall sippin on
