There isn’t a stronger supporter of Senator Clinton than I am. I am not a fan of Senator Obama, in fact I really can’t bear to listen to the man. I’ve been on my State’s Steering Committee for Hillary, organized my city’s volunteers and committed, time, energy and money to Hillary. I am hearted broken. I will vote for Senator Obama. I won’t spend time or money on his campaign as I have for many other Democrats but I will vote and suggest others do as well for one reason and one reason only, the Supreme Court. I suspect however, when I speak to many other Hillary supporters, that I am in the minority.

If we are dedicated democrats we will support our party, not one particular candidate over another, the primaries are over. Hilary is great and so is Senator Obama. Republicans thrive off of this kind of ignorance.

At first I supported Obama, then I started “studing about his live history and present values” and I then change my decision for Hillary for President. I have voted a strait ticket democrat my entire life, I will now be voting for the first time for a republican. I do not believe in Obama’s character or VALUE systems. I do not believe that any race, creed, ethic group, color, gender, etc should ever have supremacy over any other. He has believed this for the past 20 years in the Trinity Church of Christ Church. I would rather have “what is” than gamble on an “Unknown change” of what “may be”, which I feel if will worse than what we have now.

I am a Senator Clinton supporter. I strongly identify with Naomi Cabug-os and Lynne Kudzy’s comments. Bernice’s comment was also accurate. None the less the democratic party has at this time (as well as the Republican party) failed to represent many Americans and myself. My support will be focused on the Ralph Nader/Matt Gonzalez ticket.

I am a strong Clinton supporter, and I would never vote for Obama. We have lost a great opportunity to choose an committed and outstanding president because that person was a woman. Even now the male-dominated media continues to focus on Senator Clinton instead of Obama. They are truly obsessed with her. And for the record, I wear a pantsuit most days of the week.

[…] mom made me oatmeal and it tasted much better than when I make it, of course. Watched Hillary’s beautiful speech - first TV for me in well over a month as I’ve made a point to cut it out of my diet. Trying […]

I was a Clinton supporter as well. Most of your problems is that most you are reacting emotionally. Hillary reacted emotionally when Barack Obama won the required amount of delegates. Instead of congratulating him on his victory, she reacted emotionally for her loss. We as women have that problem. We react instead of act sometimes and that’s why you wouldn’t support Obama because your angry that Hillary lost the election. Think about it. Would you want this country to continue on the path that it’s been going? That’s what McCain offers. More of the same nonsense that has been going on for the past 8 years. I’m sure that you will regret your decision if you support McCain.

I am a male, who is/was an avid hillary supporter. as a floridian i am devastated that hillary has lost, knowing very well the DP has lost my state too. obama is not particularly popular in the two most populous Diasporas down here. despite not looking great in FL, i plan on voting for him. he is impressive as a leader and i fully support his domestic agenda. i am concerned by his unique brand of diplomacy, and hope to see a experienced pol as VP. is this a ladies only comment board? i guess we’ll see.

I’m from Texas, and I was a prct. chairman for Hillary and a delegate to the Texas Democratic Convention. I don’t like the fact that people are calling us ignorant, or emotional (over Hillary’s loss), if we switch and vote for Sen. McCain. My party did not nominate the one person I feel was ready to be the leader of this great country, so I have the right to vote for the one I feel will make an better president. I ask Americans everywhere to do the same!!! And for us democrats that want to send a strong message to the DNC, and Howard Dean, join me….HILLARY DEMOCRATS FOR SEN. JOHN McCAIN!!!!! E-mail me and let’s start this great movement…Thanks Y’all.
