Obama has outspent Clinton 4 to 1 and they are still not that far apart in total votes.....not that far apart at all if you think about how much money Obama has spent on advertising telling us how wonderful he is. Both candidates have ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/50 Mon, 21 Apr 2008 07:42:09 ....just a few of the lovely descriptive terms pulled off page 1 of GDP.

Now tell me again how Democrats are the party that embraces women.

Shame on you. Shame on you.... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/38 Sat, 23 Feb 2008 19:16:19 ...for winning against the GOP......and you can rant and rave at me all you want about how wonderful Obama is and how he's going to change things.

But the facts are he is unproven, he's all talk and very little action. He's been handled with kid gloves for almost the entire primary season. If he... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/37 Thu, 21 Feb 2008 14:19:11 So I'm sure that pegs me as a Clinton Supporter. Deal with it.

Pardon me if I don't buy into the 'hoping for change' myth......and excuse me if I don't get chills down my spine when Obama speaks or when teenage children advise me to vote Obama because they know he's the one.

Being able to giv... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/24 Sat, 02 Feb 2008 19:22:39 The world as we know it is not ending anytime soon. The doom and gloom 'we' are projecting if who we want to get the nomination fails to get it is nothing but fruitless breast beating and pointless gnashing of teeth.

Have a little faith. Politics during Primary Season can be ugly and divisive...... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/23 Wed, 30 Jan 2008 17:17:15 I mean come on..I can handle debates on the issues and even the mudslinging we have had...but some people are saying that Obama is the new JFK. It's time to speak up on this.

To be blunt, Obama is no JFK. I will give Obama credit for being a pretty good orator....but, people need to understand th... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/22 Tue, 29 Jan 2008 17:38:50 I knew about it too and the ONE SINGLE REASON I didn't mention it here was because I knew if I did then some Obama supporters would start hollering racism as soon as I mentioned it.

You know how I found out about that tidbit of info on Jackson? I was reading The Guardian.....an actual real, non-... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/21 Sun, 27 Jan 2008 15:47:59 I know there is a lot of passion regarding politics here at DU. Most of us all feel strongly about one candidate or another. That's a good thing. It means we still care. After 8 years of bedlam and horror, we still get up every morning and we still give a damn about what happens to America and in Am... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/20 Sat, 26 Jan 2008 15:51:41 "I'm not going to play anymore. I don't like you."

Sound familiar? It sounds like some children that have yet to grow up. The reality is........life is full of compromises. Sometimes they can be hard compromises (at least it seems so to you). If you continue to be rigid and not give and take then... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/19 Fri, 25 Jan 2008 13:53:37 "a strapping macho dude with a handlebar mustache"...........tell me, what do you look like? And why is your interpretation of this man's appearance relevant?

"Several Clinton supporters, who had clearly been there for a while were standing with several signs in the corner of the parking lot."...... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/18 Thu, 24 Jan 2008 14:32:47 Obama and some of his supporters are about the most whiney assed bunch of crybabies in recent memory.

Clinton lost Iowa. Did she cry and stomp her feet that she lost unfairly because Oprah got the buses out for out of state students to caucus? No she didn't. She picked herself up, dusted herself... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/17 Wed, 23 Jan 2008 17:44:55 ....if the nominee is not your top choice seriously needs to get on the train to Freeperville.

I can't hang around a place that has degenerated into a viper pit like this. It's nasty and after going thru it all with the last primaries I thought I had seen it all........apparently I was wrong.

One thing I wil... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/13 Wed, 09 Jan 2008 17:16:14 In fact I quite like him. Right now I lean towards Hillary in the primaries....But if Obama wins the nomination or Edwards or any Democrat save some nut like Zell, I'll vote for the nominee.

My reasons for liking Hillary are that I think she has more experience. I also think she took up the cause... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/12 Mon, 07 Jan 2008 14:56:44 But I do have a lot of concerns over what is going to happen in America in the coming weeks and months.

Things I think about:

I think America won't elect a black candudate this time around. It could happen but I personally just don't see it happening. In the end I know a lot of people won't vo... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/11 Fri, 04 Jan 2008 20:34:21 .....and I don't care what their reasons for supporting any candidate are.....or what some people think their reasons may or may not be.

When I am considering what candidate to vote for I look at the following:

2. Where does he/she stand on the issues?
3. What experi... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/9 Sun, 09 Dec 2007 12:47:32 In other words..........when the fuck is the Democratic Party going to stand up and say.......I am sick to death of what Bush has done to my country and I'm not going to take it anymore?????

Is it ever going to happen? The Democrats took back Congress a while ago.........why the fuck are we not w... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/8 Fri, 02 Nov 2007 18:04:19 I moved to the UK last year and aside from family & friends, the news and here at DU, I have no way of knowing what the mood is like in America regarding Bush and where the GOP has taken America. It seems like I was angry for so long in the States about Bush's attempts to destroy everything America ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/7 Sun, 22 Oct 2006 04:33:32 One 60 year old woman, one case of claustophobia or fear of flying in a world gone mad with terror alerts, one tube of hand cream & a pack of matches....the response.......a fighter jet escort, a diverted flight, a planeload of terrified passengers and a nation quivering at it's own shadow.

The crisis of yesterday is already waning....can we sit and have a calm discussion of just what is not working on Bush & Blair's War on Terror? Can we discuss what just may work?

Let's assume for a minute that the threat presented to us at Heathrow yesterday was in fact genuine (I... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/BooScout/5 Fri, 11 Aug 2006 05:03:42 For the simple fact that IF they had ever for one moment managed the world situation post 9/11 in an effective, sane and reasonable manner then this latest potential attack would have quite possibly never been planned in the first place.
