I was about to answer your previous post, but you just went from bad to worse ... and I don't even feel like trying to be reasonable with you right now!

You're the one that's being unreasonable, ebony. The Hillary camp has been throwing low blows since day one. Firstly, name one presidential hopeful in the history of the United States that had a former president as a spouse.

Secondly, when Obama first began looking like a threat to Hillary's chances at the democratic nomination she started the crying game claiming she's being discriminated against but when it looked like her smear tactics started taking effect on Obama's campaign she's saying: "If you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen." But no one seems to be acknowledging Hillary's double standard campaign tactics.

No one, not you, ebony, not even the media, has acknowledged the fact that Hillary has had the biggest political advantages in the history of the United States yet she's still being beat down by a virtual nobody.

The media is putting every ounce of energy into the only defense Hillary can use to justify continuing her pointless campaigning: Trying to prove her "electability." Otherwise, she has no chance at overcoming Obama's superdelegate lead.

Okay ... here's what I don't understand about this argument ... maybe you can help me out!

All of this "Hillary said this ..." and "Hillary did that ..." and "Hillary claims that she ...." and "Her camp made the statement that ..." and "She told people that Barack was/was not ..." whatever (fill in the blanks) kind of questioning really doesn't make any sense to me!

I mean ... we're involved in a nationwide election here, folks ... with somebody trying to become the persident of the United States!! Is Hillary (or Barack for that matter) really supposed to say that she's not better than her opponent?? Is her camp supposed to tout all of Barack's strengths and accomplishment and say what a good president he would make?

I mean, c'mon!!! Even the city dog catcher candidate will say he's better than the next guy!! So, is Hillary really supposed to roll over and not try to exploit her opponent's weaknesses (real or perceived) in an effort to show herself as the better choice? How many of you go and tell an audience how much better your opponent is than you?

I'm not disputing low blows and ill-conceived attacks ... that clearly Clinton is launching and Barack is not. I get that. But this, "Did you hear Hillary said that Barack is not a better president than me" stuff is elementary school. We need to grow up and realize that this is a major election, here. It's serious business. And focusing on the petty stuff is making the big issues fly right over our heads.

And speaking of issues ... not one of them is addressing ANY of those. Both candidates go out into those hordes of people and regurgitate those same old "What America needs" speeches, but neither one of them offers any details about how what they're going to do is going to make things better for ME They talk about each other, they talk about what Bush has done, what McCain is probably going to do ... but neither candidate is putting out there what's really important. And don't get me started on what neither one of them is NOT saying in regards to benefiting Black America!

Lastly, yes Hillary started out as the major favorite, and her current 'last man standing' opponent unknown and not registered on any political radar when this whole thing started. BUT ... her losing political positioning is not merely a factor of her dropping in popularity ... BUT .. it is due more to Barack's GAINING in popularity and support because of his own means and by him being who he is!! It's a preference of the people for Barack that has propelling him into the high level of popularity and support he is enjoying now.

You need to give the boy a little of his own credit ... instead of trying to find ways to justify being able to say more and more nasty things about Hillary! I mean, he IS your dog in the race ... can't you say his 'come from behind victory' stems from what's good about him instead of what's bad about Hill??
Ummm .. no. Obviously not, huh?
