    HRC's 35 years of experience:

    1. Worked for a corporate law firm.
    2. Served on WalMart board and had no issues with the labor policies there.
    3. Formulated a disastrous health care plan that postponed universal coverage for years.
    4. Had tea with foreign leaders.
    5. Voted for the war
    6. Scandal after scandal. Why oh why?
    7. Within a couple of years managed to lose both the house and the senate due to vindictive and divisive politics

    Experience we can count on?

    Well
    First of all, it is true that most polls that show Obama having edge over Hillary against McCain but that those are popular vote polls (not based on electoral college method) and also the slight edge is also within margin of error for those polls. As mentioned in first post, if you run Hillary's victories in her states on electoral college method (where winner of states gets all the electoral college vote) then Hillary will beat Obama. Period.
    Secondly, where did you get the idea that Obama would win more of the big states against McCain? Just another sweeping statement? :D

    Yes that is true on Security issues.
    But on Economy (which will be main issue come end of yr), she will kick McCain's axxx It is clear that McCain is clueless abt Economic matters as demonstrated by the Rep primaries against Romney:)

    Well, I'm not a big fan of either really, but I think that Obama would stand a better chance winning the election against McCain. That being said, I still think Hillary would beat him. McCain couldn't stand a chance against himself running Democrat.

    Dem McCain vs Repub McCain
    now that'd be a sight to see.

    Lol, McCain is so weak that he's McCain lite.

    If McCain becomes POTUS, those who lose their jobs because of his mismanagement of economy will be sent to Iraq for next 100 years:D The guy is out of touch though he is still miles better than Dubya :D

    No Obama so far is the rightful winner because he has won more states (and delegates)

    Obama deserves this Nomination, He has come from the scratch to this position, Hillary was declared the winner of Texas but in reall and practical terms Obama has won Texas taking into account the caucus , and in reality, He has got more delegates than Hillary in Texas

    Obama all the way !

    Please correct me where I have this story wrong...

    Hillary is the big winner in states that use primary systems, because she is the preference of most of the members of the Democratic Party.

    Obama is the big winner in states that use caucus systems, because he is the preference of most of the insiders of the Democratic Party.

    The caucus system has been a big boost to Obama.

    In addition, Hilary has won both Michigan and Florida primaries and the delegates are not in her totals.

    That's interesting when you think of how low the US dollar is.

    Clintons have turned holding public office into a lucrative business.

    Personally, I can't stand liars that I know in person, but a public liar is even worse. Nafta, Bosnia, lobbyists, move-on.org, Peter Paul, the FALN pardons, and many others. I have never seen a campaign that is willing to mislead and twist the facts as much as her and it is a shame that the first female who had a chance at the white house has shown so much disgrace. and to sum it all up, she doesn't even care about the voters, she will take an undemocratic superdelegate win if she can.
    Can't take care of her own campaign budget, surely not ready to run a country.

    Obama's campaign has been caught in quite a few lies itself. He appears to have at least two positions on every issue.

    The only thing which has saved him so far is that he mostly speaks in platitudes, not giving enough hard data to give a listener any real idea of what he is actually saying.

    Moreover, Hillary would win a "popular" vote among Democrats. She's winning in states that use a primary system, which counts the popular vote. She's only losing in states that use a caucus system, which lets party insiders select Obama delegates.

    So, while I do understand your vitriol towards Hillary, you will find no better in Obama.

    Obama has won 14 of 29 primary contests, many of them handily; and virtually all of the caucuses.

    Please enumerate them.
