The 'mushy middle' hard to reach for Obama, McCain ... REPORT: "They're the most fickle voters, and potentially the most powerful. Thus, with party nominations secure, John McCain and Barack Obama now are pushing toward the center to win them over. Meet the "mushy middle," a complex chunk of people likely to decide the presidential election but difficult to reach and hard to please. "Yes, we can!" isn't floating their boat. Nothing much is, from either candidate. They aren't uniformly conservative or liberal, and they don't fit strict Republican or Democratic orthodoxy. They aren't typically engaged in politics, and they don't much care about the campaign. And like so many others, they are extraordinarily pessimistic ..." MORE

Is Hillary Clinton suffering buyer's remorse over Bill?...

By Zim Sidney | Quick Takes

StumbleUpon Toolbar Stumble It!

Is Hillary Clinton now regretting having husband stump for her? According to this CNN piece she's offering apologies for campaign remarks that he made that might have offended African Americans. However sincere it may be it might be a little too late ...

In remarks to the annual State of the Black Union forum Saturday, Sen. Hillary Clinton strongly defended her husband's record on civil rights, and offered regrets some of the former president's comments earlier this campaign season appeared to have offended many African-Americans.

Clinton was asked about remarks her husband made while on the trail for his wife in South Carolina last month, including his reference to Jesse Jackson having won primaries in the state during the 1980s. Critics complained about the remarks, seeing it as a suggestion that Obama's success in that state would largely be based on his race.

In her answer, Clinton said many of the attendees to the forum know her husband personally and "know his heart."

"If anyone was offended by anything that was said, whether it was meant or not, whether it was misinterpreted or not, then obviously I regret that," she added. "But I believe our task is to go forward with the agenda that all of us agree upon. That is what I have done my entire life, on behalf of civil rights and women's rights and human rights."

Stirring up Hate! It's time to make Peace...Not another War!!!!!

The Clinton's are stead fast, Greedy selfish Power Ball Players!
She as well Bill intentionally stirred up trouble amoungst Florida,Michigan, and many other voters!!!

I'm a firm believer that there's no such thing as a coincidence. There's a reason why Obama is the Nominee for the Democratic Party! Despite the threats, the racism and power struggles. There's been drama, skepticism and speculation on his success but He stays on top! And now.....they want to join him.(Sound familiar)(Can't bet em join em)!
Barack, like most of us good people, believes in a universal fairness. No Tactic formed against him( in any form) shall prosper. We have to realize that this movement is not about any one person, it's about the collective Black, Rich, Hispanic, Catholic, Jews, Old, Young, Poor and white, finally standing up and fighting for what's right and living a principled life!
I feel the Clintons are still crying over spilled milk.
A lot which was spilled in still trying to win.!
Ok.....let her apologize! Will that Heal ....?
Changing the hearts and minds of men and women is a hellafa tasks.......(But hey.. Obama been doing just that)
Now.....She needs his $$$$$ to pay her Debts!
Of course she's gonna do whatever she can to help(on the surface)because she needs him as well!

Hillary....take a back seat, stop being a spoiled little rich brat!!! Show your supporters that even YOU have a heart....(Hard to tell by the way you're acting), and take the mighty blow of PRIDE......and help Unite this party NOW!!!!...so us Democrats can Win this upcoming General election!

Quit being the Selfish, Scandalizing Hard knock Clinton that you are, and have Always Been, and show that even You Too.....can really Change. (Help make that Change) Pay your own debt, and Mean what you say about Obama! Bill....You too!

She is still trying to have her way and her say!
Dont spoil (the other side) of History in the making for your own Pride and Glory.

She is trying to recover her political carreer through wit,but with elfishness!

Everyone of you out there reading this:

It's time to Stop being Haters.......(in any form)

Spread Love, Peace Happiness and Freedom.......and you will get all that you are hoping for in life!

$$$$, Jobs, Healthcare, No more Wars........Housing, College Grants, Social Security and what ever you need to see you through!

Have Faith:

Believe and you shall receive.

But first, we as a people must start this process.....Not Barack Obama nor Clinton for that matter.............WE MUST TAKE A STAND! TAKE A CHANCE!
