We can certainly see that... She has "changed" her tones, rhetoric and states-of-mind more times that a chameleon changes its colors to evade being eaten. She's probably somewhere preparing her next change. She has touts her foreign experience and knowledge, I vote she change to "invisible", disappear...go to one of the countries that she has stated that she's aided the most execute some visible world reknown change... "go change artist!!! Hillary Clinton is definitely a "change agent". We can certainly see that...

I can't think of anything more dangerous than that. If Americans become less aware of the war in Iraq we are more likely to elect McCain. I can't think of anything more dangerous than that.

It is divisive and will not accomplish anything. She agreed to the rules, signed a document, and now wants to change the rules because she's losing. Is this what we want in our next President?

If Hillary had a spiritual advisor of 20 years that spewed the filth that came out of the Reverend Wright's mouth about this country, you would have wasted no time in getting you meat hooks into her for that. Yet we hear nothing, NOTHING, from you about Obama for this poor judgment on Rev. Wright, Rezko, etc. Jack, if Obama had won those states, we would no doubt be hearing from you asking us to give our opinion whether the voters in Florida and Michigan should lose their Constitutional right to vote. Something along the lines of: Should the millions of voters in Florida and Michigan be disenfranchised because of a bad decision by a few politicians in their state? Life just wouldn't be the same if you weren't bashing Hillary, would it, Jack? I can't speak for the other 49 states, but I can promise you that McCain will win Texas if Obama is the nominee. McCain will probably win Florida and Michagan too if their votes will not be counted by the Democratic party. Come November when this is all over and we have President McCain, we can thank the biased media like you for it.

She thinks she's entitled to have the rules changed for HER benefit, but we know if it weren't to her advantage she could care less. She's such a master manipulator. But her polarizing tactics won't get her very far. Look at her, she would sell Bill and Chelsea if it meant she would win.

I received an email from a friend in Michigan just before their vote asking what to do as the person she wanted wasn't on the ballot. She hadn't realized what was going on. I think they need to do a revote. I don't think they should be allowed to seat the delegates in a vote that was not legitimate according to their own party's rules, but I do think their vote counts and should be counted. The only way to do that is through a revote. Play by the rules and let the votes fall as they may. It doesn't matter if the vote is for Hillary or Barack as long as it's legitimate.

Hillary is shooting herself in the foot with her multiple personas, demands and her opinion she is the annoited one.

For all you people who say that Mr. Obama should just let the votes stand since they will not affect the outcome I have a simple answer. MR. OBAMA FOLLOWS THE RULES! he has not said he does not want a recount he HAS said he will follow whatever the DNC decides and he has simply pointed out some possible problems with the solutions given. He has LOOKED at the proposed solutions BEFORE deciding on them (something Ms. Clinton does not do --> see Iraq war authorization) and showed where problems might exist. Same thing he did when he found a proplem with legislation he worked on in Illinois, no blind acceptance if there was a concern but he agreed with the principle he cast a present vote.. meaning yes he agreed with the concept of the legislation but felt it was poorly written (a COMMON practice in IL but something the Clintonistas have not bothered to look at). It means he has integrity and stands by the rules as written. It leaves Ms. Clinton losing as the opportunist she is should and Mr. Obama winning as the man of integrity he is should.
