Nobody ask Hillary tough questions out of fear that she may cry again.I would like my questions answered because it is important to me.Is the rumor true that Hillary used drugs when she was a hippie?

It contains all the Republican abuse of power, crimminal acts, incompetence, ignorance and destruction of everything this country has stood for since 1776. If one reads his book, they will most likely vote straight Dem like myself, regardless of the candidate. Jack Cafferty's book "It's Getting Ugly Out There is tremendous, and should be a best seller.

He have always run a campaign of bringing together black,white.democrat and republican as one America.Hillary Clinton realize after Iowa that Obama may win the democratic nomination.First she cried to gain sympathy votes .Now she inject racism and sexism into her campaign to her benefit.She said she have 35 years experience. How much of her experience is as president or vice president.She plan to turn over her presidency to Bill Clinton to serve a third term. Obama mother is white and his father is black.

It now seems to be "find a way to bring mudslinging into the public arena without OVERTLY slinging mud." By talking about how *you're not talking about something,* you are effectively talking about it. I'm sad at Bob Johnson and Charlie Rangel are right on board with this scheme, as well. This is the kind of old-style politics Obama and his supporters want to see change. It's shameful, to be quite honest. What's really surprising is how obvious (to me, at least) that that's what they're doing. I hope it's not actually working on the American people.

Larry is the only one lately that is fair. Listen to the people and give Hillary as much good coverage as you give Obama. My question to you is, are you prejudice and don't want a woman to win?

I did find some of the Clinton's handlers remarks were definitely uncalled for and irresponsible. What was absolutely irresponsible and uncalled for was the American media scooping up this sensitive isssue and trying to score points. In turn the Obama camp decided to jump on the media wagon and increase their chances of winning South Carolina. In the short term I'm sure the Obama camp would gain; however it would be America's loss in the long term with a split Democaratic party and the republicans back in the white house. It's a damn shame that in the 21st century race has taken first place to other life and death issues. I find both, Senators Clinton and Obama, excellent Presidential candidates, and my vote will be decided on who will better address the very serious issues plaguing this great country. If the media had been so "vigilant" in 2002/2003 we never would have been in Iraq and this country would be in a much better state than it is currently in. Shame on the American Media!!!! P.S. The only two people I respect on their views and stances are you and Keith Olberman at MSNBC. Jack:

The Obama Campaign did not open this door on race. Two other prominent African American Leaders, Congressman Jim Clyburn of South Carolina and Donna Brazile a CNN Analyst both had some reservations about what the Clinton were saying out there. Neither of these 2 people are part of the Obama Campaign . The Clintons started laying the blame on Obama and the Mainstream Media ran with saying he was firing back at her. He was wondering where all of this was coming from. The Clintons have put their feet in their mouths and some prominent African Americans feel they need to help them extricate them of their mouths. Please get it straight Media. It seems like a ploy to derail the Obama Campaign. For the One Millionth time. The Obama Campaign did not open this door on race.
