MSNBC Decision 2008 - Obama's Sweep and Next Steps

[highwater03]

3:54- 4:12

Bingo. What did Buchanan say? Economy, war, and Bush are going to be problems for the GOP in November. Its October baby! And McCain is running out of time!

[Taylor4change]

VACUOUS?????

What country do you live in? Savvy is the vacuous we're trying to ESCAPE!  Give us someone who knows what struggle is - who knows what sacrifice costs... Obama knows this. He knows it intimately.

[FalconX2000]

Completedisclosure is half correct in my opinion. truthlovver, from my experience, really isn't worth listening to. Stump speeches should not be the SOLE place a voter gets his info on a candidate from. The biggest point of a stump speech is to rally the supporters, capture the imagination, inspire the people. Some candidates choose to go into more detail of their issues for such things. Obama does not, but he still accomplishes the main objective of rousing the interest of the listener.

[FalconX2000]

I will not presume to talk about Ron Paul, as I have not done anywhere near enough research on him to comment in good conscience.

RealTalk7777, if you are interested in finding out the specifics about Obama from listening to the man himself, look for his interviews. He gives plenty of detail there on what he would do, in a manner less rushed than a debate.

[kim20062007]

You need to support YOUR candidate 100%! but don't start talking about Obama as if you've followed him as closely as a true supporter like me. You don't do a full research of Obama, you just look for what the media is saying. So you're just full of air. "Better educated people lean towards Obama"

[kim20062007]

I don't blame you for being cynical, or believing everything you read in the papers. But if you weren't such a fool, you would already have heard and understood by now, Obama's platform. Obama has done A LOT of work before he entered the limelight of this presidential race. He has plenty more substance than, say, hillary, who uses her husband's success as her own. Obama has done real work, and I know where he stands on all his policies. So answer me this - why don't you know where he stands?

[truthlovver]

realtalk, you are exactly right. obama is full of show. clinton is full of knowledge and political savvy--political savvy on the international level. his preachiness, his vacuous preachiness, is condescending to anyone with the wisdom to focus on substantive political realities. americans are suckers for bullshit, and it's unfortunately seeming that they may well get it, and at a time when they have a wonderful candidate. then they will turn on their tv and go back to will & grace.

[kim20062007]

You're a fool. Ron Paul is getting nowhere in the race for Presidency; his 'quantifiable platform' is not working! Since Paul has told the people what he's going to do and Obama, Clinton, McCain and Huckabee are succeeding him in the voting, this shows his platform is well and truly USELESS. Do you think people are stupid?? He doesn't appeal to me, and A LOT of Americans feel the same way, SO DEAL WITH IT Mr MBA Science,Politics, Philosophy, History. what was the other one... LOGIC??? Oh please!

[kim20062007]

If you don't like Obama, then don't like him - big deal! It seems that you are poorly equipped to judge any of the presidential candidates. I go and search for candidates stances on issues, and their proposed policies. Folks like you surf 'YouTube' looking for all the answers. Do your research properly. I know what Obama plans to do and how he is going to do it. It's common sense. Open your eyes and ears, otherwise you'll only fool yourself.

[kim20062007]

""But he has no idea how to deliver on it and therefore offers no concrete comprehensive platform whatsoever as do the other candidates""

Tell me... when was it that you looked into the future to see Obama as president NOT delivering his promises??

[kim20062007]

You can't handle the truth, which is - Obama doesn't demonise people that disagree with him. Rather, he has a great and rare ability to bring people from both Democrat and Republican sides together around a common purpose. This is a proven fact. We've seen it in the way red states are voting in huge numbers for him, how he is bringing in a lot of Republican support. His policies are very smart. SO, MR RON PAUL SUPPORTER, go & check your facts, and come back to me with something that makes sense!

[frellthat]

"Hillary's speech was inspirational, it was moral highground, it was 'I would be the first woman president...'"

Yes, it was a speech essentially based on gender bias. No inspiration, no moral high ground, just "vote for me because I'm a woman" sexism. I'm so sick of hearing faux feminists like Rachel Maddox supporting her because of her gender. Feminism is supposed to be a rejeection of gender bias, not a reinforcement of it.

[trapsmv9]

Thank you.

exactly

[rbassy]

Change we can believe in

Obama 08!

[0613162k]

Does anybody have Hillary's speech at the JJ dinner as I stayed up late here in the UK to watch it live on either Fox New or CNN which both promissed they'd give live coverage, but they both only showed a few minutes followed by interupting coverage to talk all over it & then go on a long advertising break & didn't return to her speech. Typical. I hate the US media where it's bad enough they're biassed, but they never show coverage og her full speeches, yet they showed Obama's full speech.

[ace8878]

MSNBC is supporting Obama like Fox News supported Bush. So no matter what they do it's good and anyone else is bad and a non Patriot. and of course now a Racist.

That's your big Change.. whoopee

[kim20062007]

OBAMA IS FOR REAL CHANGE!!!!

[Thesouthman]

OBAMA '08!!!!!

[incomemonthly]

I think the Republicans will unite to tear down Hillary much more than they would if it was Barrack.

[kim20062007]

Very true!
