I never said you bashed him but that you maybe read something into his post that was just not there. Him going to Oregon to campaign for Hillary means he supports her...He feels people are voting for someone who is not qualified but that is more of criticism on the voters part and not bashing. Again, I never said you bashed him but that you bordered on bashing me (see earlier post)

I do not need to explain to you about bordering on bashing because I now made it clear to you that I do not think you bashed him. The discussion was obliterate and attack and yes I said they are the same...what that has to do with bashing I will not know.

He would not have tied in Indiana because she got more delegates than he did-6 more. I meant they tied in Missouri because they got the same amount of pledged delegate votes. Here is proof: Missouri 72 48% 49% 3% 36 36

Survey USA was right in that they predicted who would win each state-just not with their numbers. The polls I think you are referring to go by what happens that day and those are the most accurate because they reflect on actual voter turnout.

Game changer, from what I heard, meant she would cut into his big lead, get many votes, and he would not win by as much as was predicted.

There is no real reason for her to quit the race when she is winning by McCain even more so than Obama is. I think this should go all the way to the end with everyone voting. This might make them more faithful to vote Democrat (WV, Montana, Kentucky seem to be Republican states...perhaps people there will appreciate Democrats more for going all the way and letting them vote?)

I never said polls are meaningless when Obama wins. They showed him winning in North Carolina-I agreed that he would win there but that it would be close. I was off on that projection. That poll was right...I look at more than one poll to see how a person will win (Survey USA and Rasmussen are the most accurate).

Not many Obama supporters will go for McCain if she is the nominee and he is not on as VP...ony 14% will do it, compared to 30% of Hillary supporters for McCain if she is not on the ticket.

She just was...visiting places like China to discuss human rights, Bosnia (she did visit, aside from how she described it) and had a hand in creating CHIP, tried to get universal health care, and was just known to be involved in foreign affairs and basically policy in general

You like your polls and I obviously don't care about them so this is moot to me. I do think she's destroying the party but we'll never be on the same page about that either.

I don't recall your calling me out about anything. You did want me to agree to a couple of things and I said I'd agree to one of them. I got the impression that you were done responding to me in this thread and it turns out I was wrong. I'm not trying to bash you but if you feel that way then I'm sorry. It wasn't my intent. If you feel I'm an arrogant know it all then that's how you feel and that's your business not mine.

You said he was selfish and gave the "bitter" remark as an example of his selfishness. You pick what you want to respond to which is certainly your right but you missed the part where I asked what he hoped to gain from the "bitter" remark? It was an error on my part to say: I mean obviously when he uttered those words he did it with the intent of hurting people and gaining what exactly for himself? when I should have just asked what he hoped to gain by uttering the selfish comment about people being bitter.

Survey USA was wrong when they had her up by 12 points and she won by 1 & 1/2 points.

Game changer was her winning NC.......and I heard that come out of her mouth and Terry McCaulif's mouth. He was also the one who had a huge smile on his face last night before NC was announced, and then you didn't hear anything else about it after she got her tail kicked.

And right now.....Obama is beating her for the Democratic nom.

And since you want to say that 30% of Hillary voters will not vote for Obama, here's one number that some FAIL to wrap their minds around.......

The 91% of black americans who are voting for Obama. Since always seem to hear about the white voters he can't get (Even though he is).......

Let's see Hillary try and win the WH without the black vote. ;)

You don't have to like the polls but I am just saying what they are having in results. We will agree to disagree about party destruction :)

Okay well if you say you did not try to bash that is fine and I believe you. So that is square so all is said and done.

Yes I believe he was selfish on the bitter remark and it did hurt some people's feelings and turn them off of him. He was better off not saying anything and just discuss his plans for America rather than utter that statement.

She just was?

So, by that rationale, I should be able to run the company that owns McDonald's, since I visit them twice a week.

She said herself and her husband said she was not involed in any policy decisions during his terms in the WH. But, becuase she went on the same types of trips every FL has went on......this apparently makes her qualified to be president.

Not to me. We see this COMPLETELY differently.

She is not qualified to be president one bit.

Especially since she would bomb Iran and her vote on the Iraq War (Which she still has yet to apologize for).

Yes they were wrong about what they polled and I think that was a week before the election...but they were right in how she won.

She did say game changer but I am thinking the intent was she would lose but still cut into the overall lead that he had about a month ago, which she did. She also got many votes there but, throughout the past three contests, she won overall in pledged delegates but not by much.

Obama will only beat her for the nomination when he has 2,025 delegates and that number will only happen with superdelegates.

30% for McCain if Hillary is not on the ticket and 14% for McCain if Obama is not on the ticket is where it stands now. I hope both numbers come down but obviously there are still African Americans for Hillary from Obama's camp if only 14% of those supporting him will go for McCain if he is not on as VP.

Yes she was more than just an ordinary First Lady and those years count...the McDonald's analogy does not work because you are not in charge of their day to day operations. She had a hand in policy and foreign affairs while she was in The White House. She may not have been involved in policy but her influence certainly had a hand in them so that still somewhat counts as her being involved..or at least her influence

She is definitely qualified with her tenure as U.S. Senator...she did not say she would just outright bomb Iran. She said only if they attack Israel that we should attack them.

It is time to forgive her for voting for Iraq. She was misled on intelligence that was fabricated...she was given the wrong information. She made up for it by calling for an end to the war and voting to withdraw troops and also refusing to vote for the war. She should not have to apologize-that should be The Bush Administration's job
