You're a day late and a dollar short when it comes to being impartial, Sun.

Haven't any of you in the media noticed...that a startling disproportion of the bad propaganda and questionable behavior by "surrogates" comes out of the Clinton camp?

If that's the kind of experience you want...same-old, same-old politics (and politicians)...then I hope the Clinton's purchase of your editorial endorsement was worth it...so tepid and bland was your pledged support--I'm not at all certain you didn't have a Clintonian rep review it before going to press.

And what kind of Journalism is that???

But how many times can Hillary ASK that same question of herself...and claim to have ANY shred of self respect left? It didn't START with Lewinsky...Paula Jones? Jennifer Flowers? Time and time again, her husband couldn't keep it in the pants...and time and time again...she was forced to eat crow and spin adultery as "a private part of a marriage."

Don't know about you, but the woman I married would rightly boot me out the door. And by some miracle if I GOT a second chance...I certainly wouldn't just go out and do it again.

The definition of insanity is choosing the same course of action, over and over...and expecting a different result.

Perhaps that's the metaphor for this campaign...

If we choose Hillary Clinton...we're buying into perpetuating an already-broken system.

There's a lot of info about Barack in his book, The Audacity of Hope...that you should consider reading before making blanket generalizations about the guy...he's been STOMPED in an election before, for example, yet you act as if his life and experience was a cakewalk...he worked a lot of door to door thoughout your state...and enacted some good, long standing programs.

(Videotaping of police interrogations comes to mind...as does program work for the truly disadvantaged on Chicago's south side)

He's NOT perfect...but unlike almost every other candidate...has the guts to admit it.

My opinion? If Hillary had kicked Bill to the curb...she'd possibly win this election in a landslide. Because she and Bill "could remain close friends" while showing the TRUE FORTITUDE it takes to make a really tough decision. Bill could have STILL campaigned for her...and she could TRULY be the self-sufficient woman she touts herself to be...rather than the woman who remains married because it's better for her political career.

Even from across the country (Pittsburgh, in this case), eyes are turned toward Nevada to see if the revolution this country really needs...will continue in your great state today.

And reading just how SHRILL some Hillary supporters have become--based on the discussion boards--proves something we've all suspected...yes...even 3000 miles away:

It's a dogfight against... rather than a coronation of... the Status Quo of Clinton "leadership."

(Majority Leader Reid never foresaw this--Nevada was supposed to be a Clinton Coronation and unstoppable momentum-builder for the Clinton machine through the rest of the primary season.)

What it has now become is a battleground where the establishment's GREATEST FEAR is being realized: The American people, long suffering and long silent, are COMING OUT in record numbers to exercise their one remaining power--the power of the vote.

Long before "Change" became a tired, often repeated JINGLE...Barack Obama was quietly yet forcefully stirring a desire in millions to simply SEE a new and better nation take shape, one American at a time.

Barack has steadfastly used another word that you're going to hear more and more from other candidates...because he's tapped into the one thing SO MANY of us have been without for so long.

That word is HOPE.

Do the right thing, Nevada. For all our sakes.
