Finally someone clearly sees the handwriting on the wall. Hillary is a mean machine, conducting a mean, say anything do anything to win campaign. Barack, like Mike Huckabee, has tried to maintain a campaign based on issues, not gutter politics. Unifying is not in the Clinton play book. A Clinton in the White House doesn't represent change.

Jack,

I find it interesting that even though Obama's % went down in the poll, Hillary's % stayed the same at 45%. She gained nothing even though Obama lost. None of the pundits noticed or mentioned this fact.

Jack:

I think you all are despirate to fill the sucking vacuum of the 24 hour news cycle. One delegate is a shift of .less than 5 hundreths of a percent - meaningless!

I think it was a good idea for Mr. Andrew to realize that Mr. Obama has a broader plan for the people. The media will not let Mr. Wright comments die so of course it going to remind people about but once the media focus on the important issues it would be a better race. If the media just focus on Mr. Obama faults and not Ms. Clinton tales about sniper fire, blowing up Iran, and etc. So lets be fair around the table and give equal coverage to all.

When someone like Joe Andrews switches camps, it is a strong indicator of which way the wind is blowing. More importantly, a decision like this, from someone so close to the Clinton camp, takes courage, and I believe is done with much consideration of issues that prvoke integrity. It's not as though Obama has had the flood gates open to him, and considering everything that has gone on recently for the Obama camp, I say this move is truly one that reflects just how important Obama's message is to this country. Being of the 'Nurses for Obama' group, I say this is another step towards healing.

It speaks volumes when those close to you defect. Mr. Andrews knows the dirt going on behind the scenes and knows that Hillary is not a "Changer" she is "Status Quo" and unstable. Yes-she's a fighter but she's selfish- She's fighting for "HER". The gas tax is an example of that.

Obama will handle the country like he has his campaign. So will Hillary–she will lie, cheat and make us bankrupt.

Jack,
It seems to me Mr. Andrew is a logical thinker, who wants what is best for the Democratic Party and the Country. We all need to start thinking more rationally and pull together to face the immense challenges ahead.

I believe it means that more people are realizing that "Billary" will say anything to be elected, and that Obama is the best chance for a change in the U.S
