That's really setting the bar high for a guy who's claimed the be the one who can bring real change to Washington.

Can't blame 'em. It's a variation on the sceme that worked so well in the last election, remember? Ralph Nader siphoned votes away from Gore.

A 3rd candidate? There isn't a candidate alive who is better than Obama. This is HIS year. He's our next President.
So many candidates would be better than Obama. It's very sad that people don't do their research, and find the really qualified candidates out there--not that it would do much good, as they wouldn't stand a chance with the liberal media. I don't dislike Obama. I think he is probably a sincere man--but not ready to be our President. I guess I understand your obsession with him, as an idol--but idols usually have clay feet. We need to quit thinking of a potential President as a movie star image--but rather as an expreienced, honest person who cares about the future of our country.

I am frankly sick of the gutter level that she represents and today, it was again evident that this is Obama's time. She needs to stand aside or be kicked out. She will NOT be VP.

Those of you opposing Obama need to wake up, address your flawed judgment. Barack Obama is the greatest candidate for this office to come along in recent memory. This is Obama's year. Recognize that!

This has been a good day for this Obama supporter.
Yes, it has!!!

Obama won't win the nomination. Period. I could think of tons of other choices that the US would vote for over Obama. To name a few - a giraffe, a dinosaur, a mouse, and MAYBE..just maybe..in a "dead heat" contest...a brick.

I only support those who succeed at doing something; not their attempts - they failed.

Please don't degrade a brick by comparing it to the empty shell Obama.
