Wow, McCain and Hillary are getting desperate. Are these useless fixtures of the status quo really blind to public bitterness? Or do they just want to pretend it doesn't exist. Disgusting.

I suppose they are right to be worried by public bitterness, because it's going to cost them both the presidency.

This is exactly why I've lost all respect for Hillary during these campaigns. She uses the same, typical slimy political moves you could expect to see from the Bush administration - twisting words or statements, truthful or not, for the sole reason of creating negative spin about her opponent.

Guess what? I don't feel like Obama was condescending to me at all. I AM bitter! WE ARE BITTER. What the hell do you expect after putting up with Bush for 8 years? Unreal.

McCain isn't really desperate, if anything going by polls (which may or may not actually mean anything in terms of reflecting people's binding decisions). He's been silently creeping up in general election one-to-one match-offs with both Obama and Clinton, despite wavering and about-turning on potential independent and traditional democrat positions such as aligning himself with Christian fundamentalists, voting for a bill that would allow interrogators to go beyond standard field manual interrogation techniques - something that he previously advocated against. Not to mention he also went against the Bush tax cuts as purely benefiting the wealthy, and reverted his position on this issue as well, but that was some time ago.

With this whole fiasco, I guess it will depend on how people take being told harsh truths.

As for Clinton being desperate, of course. In primaries time and time again she has been shown to be unable to overcome his message through the strength of her campaign, potentially due to anything from staff incompetence to insufficient fund raising, to simply not being able to deliver the same captivation. So no doubt she sees the nomination as his to lose.

Also Cafferty's a college drop out? Wow.

Sometimes I wonder whether American elections exist solely to divide and polarise the electorate.

Where are the "reporters"? Those are analysts.

Obama- The elitist who was paying off student loans a couple years ago. What a despicable oil Baron he is. Vote for Hillary, the down-to-earth country bumpkin with a paltry $109 million to her name in the same time period.
