Was Obama Win in Iowa a fluke?

The Hillary Camp tried to treat the Obama beatdown as a fluke. The explanation was that it was some young folks who were independents that won Iowa for Obama. It won't happen again.

Matter of fact, Hillary camp suggested that Hillary only needed to regroup and tell the voters that Obama is just talk while she had proven experience. Hillary is that your proven experience or is that Bill's proven experience.Hillary camp even suggested that voting for Obama were pushing false hope to the America,(that no way in America would Obama win the presidency).


Perhaps, that is why the mainstream media is hyping a Hillary come back Queen. And that Sam Donaldson even suggested that the season champion(meaning Hillary) will out trump the hustler. Not saying out loud that the hustler was Obama.

But somebody forgot to tell the grassroot folks. It seems that the polls are saying that Obama is running away Hillary. Matter of fact that Obama is leading Hillary in several polls:

A USA Today/Gallup poll said Mr Obama had opened up a 13-point lead over Ms Clinton in New Hampshire, 41 per cent to 28 per cent, to 19 per cent for former North Carolina Senator John Edwards.

Another poll showed Mr Obama leading Ms Clinton by 39 per cent to 29 per cent. Earlier polls had shown the race to be a heat between the two.


Obama is hot. Young folks like Obama, young folks can relate to Obama.

Many of these young professional folks have completed college, and they are unable to find jobs to support themselves or their new family.

And the truth would come to the light in New Hampshire.

    Being sexist is just as bad if not worse than being racist. Look at American history and see who got the right to vote first. If anyone is the underdog, it’s HILLARY! The best American stories are always when America votes for the underdog!

    Obama is ridding the Oprah wave and nothing more. Don’t ever let Hillary give up, Al Gore should have never given up that’s what the old white guys want so they can eliminate Obama next - It’s true… Obama and especially Oprah are very powerful influences in politics; it’s good that they are. Believe it or not, I have been honored to have seen both Obama and Oprah speak in person and love them both very much, but it is completely fair to say, if Oprah has now participated in politics being so new like Obama himself is new to politics, to step back and consider that her vote could hurt women as well as the issues we care about in politics, regardless if Obama is the right choice or not. It’s just a comment worth really looking at. Think about it… is the woman's suffrage really over? Many woman, black or white, in front or behind camera have helped make Harpo productions possible for Oprah to have a really good life making a difference in the world, not just Oprah herself. Though this is the first time she has endorsed a political candidate and is somewhat new to politics that does not mean she is making the best decision with her strategy to have gone to the middle states to help Obama… or us, the next MTV generation. If we vote for Obama – and education is everything - to quote Oprah: it's because historically she thinks for Obama if for nothing else it's to show "them" that it's "your turn" so people should vote for him. Unless you’re sexist, technically it's HILL's turn. I know it’s good to get all rivaled up and make change but let’s do it right. Our vote is worth doing completely right and then some. 2008 with all that could happen with nuclear war is a little more complicated then that. If I we’re Oprah I would want to see a black family in the white house too, and believe it or not I do and would hope to God you do too. But let’s be real, who should be the president and who should be the vice president? Experience making change is HILLARY and HILLARY is where the MTV generation should put their main attention. Who is best to talk about it and who has the best resume to make change a reality? I am an independent; I know it is a job interview not a party. I know that more was said in support for Obama in the last couple of days, but really think about it. There is a reason Clinton was getting all the attention and will again. The stereotype of the old white man needs to go but it’s not the point to who we should vote for 2008. Truth is that Oprah should have at least considered promoting HILL for President. Close your eyes, young or old, black or white, girl or boy… and yes, because actions do speak louder than words THE WOMAN is most defiantly worth voting for. Saying America should vote Obama for change, shows how desperate we can be for it that we don't even care on how best to do it - THAT IS WHAT NEEDS TO CHANGE! To vote for the reasons Oprah thinks Obama should be president is basically like saying woman should be next in line because that how it’s always been. BEING SEXIST IS JUST AS BAD IF NOT WORSE THAN BEING A RACIST. There needs to be more than talk to back up Obama for him to win in the long run if you really understand how the system works to really be president, or it really is just HYPE regardless if he wants his time to be now or latter. Hillary should not be discriminated against; the Clintons are more than good people – let’s not forget ALL of our history – the Clinton’s not only should have the respect for generation MTV and moveon.org, the progress they made before as our most bad ass elders for this election in 2008, they deserve the majority of our votes. Bill himself was referred to as the first black president, not because of his skin but because he as well as HILLARY made decisions for many years longer than any other administration since Lincoln to pave the way for 2009, 20010, 2011 and 2012, the next four years. Before 1920, only criminals, the insane, Native Americans, and women were denied the vote. Imagine that it’s the 1920’s today… not cool! The 25 legendary women celebrated on the Oprah show at her house in Santa Barbara with Maya Angelou, Shirley Caesar, Diahann Carroll, Elizabeth Catlett, Ruby Dee, Katherine Dunham, Roberta Flack, Aretha Franklin, Nikki Giovanni, Dorothy Height, Lena Horne, Coretta Scott King, Gladys Knight, Patti LaBelle, Toni Morrison, Rosa Parks, Leontyne Price, Della Reese, Diana Ross, Naomi Sims, Tina Turner, Cicely Tyson, Alice Walker, Dionne Warwick and Nancy Wilson along with Oprah herself may feel good about a black man being president and that in it’s self may seem like enough progress, but that in itself… is NOT good enough. As Obama said himself, Hill is “GOOD ENOUGH”. DEMOCRATS WILL and should VOTE FOR HILL… it would not have been good to be included with the many woman regardless of black or white who we’re left behind. This is serious; understand - if we don't do this right, democrats and republicans and yes, I am an independent, it will be like Al Gore all over again. Just because he was the smartest one in the room didn’t mean he wasn’t and isn’t still is cool! Same goes for Hillary, she has balls as big as mother earth and that's a good thing! If you are truly un-racist & un-sexist, and care at all about America and our world, I hope you will decide to vote and vote for HILL… not only because she would be a great pres. worthy to be called the first MRS. PRES. because we rock the vote ☺ Because she deserves respect not only the mind and the ego like the African American man but the mind and ego like any man or woman regardless of heritage, sex or even politics.

  2. Hillary is forever linked to her husband legacy.

    Obama won amongst the little people, Hillary represent special interest groups and big business, she does not truly represent women.

    This is why she is not getting the majority of women support. Those voting for Obama have their reason and it may not have anything to do with race or sex.

    Obama won this one..and I salute him.
