Let me get this out right away: I am no fan of Hillary Clinton. I don't like her because she doesn't care about American workers. She worked hard on behalf of the Indian Tata consulting firm to soutcource jobs to India. She also helped them bring foreign workers into this country. She turned her back on universal health care coverage after insurance companies paid her off. She favors of special intitlement groups. And she is all for illegal immigration.

Given all this, you would think that most intellegent people would vote for someone else. The results, however, show a close race. How is this possible? Well, fear, among other factors, is working for her. Most people won't admit it, but the fear of having a black president is so strong that they would run out and vote for any other candidate. But they can't openly say that because that would make them racists. So they hide behind other things when trying to discredit Obama. another group backing her are extreme feminists. If this group has their way, the male species would be castrated and sent to slave labor camps. Hillary Clinton is their ideal candidate. Illegal immigrants and their children are backing her as well. They, of course, want a president who will keep the border open for them to come freely.

That's my thought on Hillary Clinton's support base.

Why does everyone that does not want Obama in office have to be a racist? Obama is a extreme liberal with very questionable associations with racsist pastors, a domestic terrorist and terror groups abroad. He also favors amnesty for illegals. Hillary has won most of the major states (California, New York, Florida, Texas, New Jersey and Pennsylvania). It is obvious that she has lots of support and that the media is trying to control the minds to turn them against her. I am not a Hillary backer, but she does make a better choice than obama, a "lesser of two evils" if you will.

Hillary of late, has thrived on saying that he is out of touch with "hard working, middle class whites". Not exactly a clarion call for equality.

How?

Snap out of it. I cant believe fellow democrats(if you arent a Dem, then Im not talking to you) could actually buy such nonsense hook, line and sinker. Do you think party leaders would support that if it were true? I cant believe this rationale.

For the ones already here, so do I and most other democrats.

Yet he still has more popular votes and delegates, how do you explain that?

No, he is definitely the lesser of 3 evils. John McCain is a third term of George W Bush, if he doesnt go senile first, Hillary Clinton would be a fine choice, but she would divide the country even more. Barack Obama is the only one of the three I see as a viable candidate.

But that's me.

I would prefer Hillary or McCain over Obama. Obama is far too liberal for me. Go ahead, call me a racist.

And Obama wants to give illegals financial aid to go to college, so what are you on about?

Yeah, well, I would've known that already if Utah was actually an important state.

Its actually more noteworthy that a small, republican state is doing it rather than some big liberal one-wouldnt you say?

And Barack gets labeled elitist.

They needed some way to make their state appealing to people.

Clinton has gotten as far as she has because she is a known entity. She and Obama have near identical political policies save for healthcare reforms. The issue now is of personality and race and Americans for the most part fear change. All of the political nonsense about Obama's pastor is about the worst they can tie him too and that works for many people. It's just an excuse to not vote for him. Why is she winning blue collar white votes in rust belt states when she and her husband were proponents of NAFTA and free trade deals with China that finally put the RUST into the rust belt!

Obama's "bitter" comments were quite telling if you seriously analyze it. He was asked why is he having such a hard time in Pennsylvannia and he said people were bitter and cling to their guns and religion. It wasn't an insult but a cold splash of reality that manufacturing jobs are no longer there and people find comfort in things they believe in.
Hillary promises the rust belt states a better future yet her husband helped foster policies that were detrimental to them. Today West Virginia will vote for her and if she is elected I bet that state will still be in the same place economically 4 years from now as it is today.
