    A fantastic speech by President Clinton tonight. The Democrats are now on a roll against the Republicans. It's about time. Let's take our country back from George W. Bush and John S. McCain III and their favoritism toward the wealthy.

    Bill did real well and was very well received. I don't know what it will take to get the Hillary voters that defected to McCain back but I will say the DNC has been a very good convention.

    I think President Clinton let everyone know that he supports Obama for President!

    It was a great speech, as usual, given by a great President!

    Interesting.

    Just yesterday Bill was out undermining Obama with his little talk on candidates "X" and "Y".

    You agree with candidate "X" on everything but he won't be able to get any of it done (hint - Obama)

    You agee with only half of what candidate "Y" says but you think that he can get some of what you want done (hint - McCain)

    You should vote for candidate "Y" because he'll get at least some of it done.

    I turly believe that the Clintons want McCain to win so that Hillary can run in 2012.

    She can't do that if Obama wins.

    If I were John McCain I would ride the horse all the way into the White House come November. Everytime I spoke I would be reminding the people of all the time the Clinton campaign said that BHO was not ready to be President. I'd have video clips and news reports the whole nine yards.

    I think you're wrong, yesterday Bill was out campaigning for his wife. Of course he undermined Obama, he was pulling for his wife. His wife didn't win the nod and now Bill has become the democrat that he has always been.

    "Barack Obama is ready to be president of the United States."

    Doesn't it depend on what the meaning of the word "is" is? :laugh:

    No, I think that I am right. It was Tuesday the 26th.

    Check it out here... http://dondodson.blogspot.com/

    "Suppose you're a voter, and you've got candidate X and candidate Y. Candidate X agrees with you on everything, but you don't think that candidate can deliver on anything at all. Candidate Y you agree with on about half the issues, but he can deliver. Which candidate are you going to vote for?"

    Maybe he should have called them candidate XY and XX.

    After a pause, the former President added, "This has nothing to do with what's going on now."

    Sure He Is, and Bill is...

    Obama is as ready to lead this nation as Clinton is ready to be trusted in a private room with a young intern...

    Amen, Preach It Brother, Preach It

    Preach it brother, preach it....Bill and Hillary did nothing more for Obama. They did however start the ball rolling to take Obama down in 2012, which means they don't really think he's the answer.

    Bill hasnt always" been anything. For the past 35 years or so I have seen him change his position on different policies almost daily, depending on what the current polls indicate will make him look like a hero to the people.

    My Dad used to work for the State of Arkansas and my mother worked for a large community organization in Little Rock. I have been to many dinners, picnics and other funtions with the Clintons and have met them many times. If I talked with Clinton today, he probably wouldnt remember me but he certainly would remember both of my parents.

    My point is that I have followed the Clintons for many more years than most of you have (except maybe Ken) and I am speaking from what I have seen of them, and not out of political hatred.

    Bill Clinton is the ultimate "yes man" and will tell you anything that he thinks you want to hear. I dont believe a word he says.
