Thank God for Senator Reid! He is the original 'regular Joe' who rose from poverty right here in Nevada to become one of our country's great leaders. He correctly pointed out the parallel between McCain and Hoover. McCain, like Hoover, hated any kind of regulation.

Do we citizens of this great country want another depression? If not, vote for Obama and give our economy a chance to not only survive, but thrive!

So neiman, the federal government runs the military too. You saying they screwed that up too? What are you, a subversive?

Thank you, Jon, for telling it like it is. You really nailed the Republicans for their hypocrisy on the Bristol pregnancy.

Also, Palin's support for teaching creationism in public schools; teaching only abstinence from sex and nothing about birth control; and her belief that the Iraq war was part of God's plan are all reasons why our great country does NOT need a leader with those beliefs.

I agree with Ralph that the term 'spoiler' is inappropriate. A more accurate description is 'hypocrite'. He has run as the 'Green Party' candidate. In 2000, Nader received 95,000 votes in Florida. Al Gore lost Florida by 500 votes, thereby ushering in George Dubya Bush. Thank you, Ralph, for being instrumental, as the representative of the Green Party, in putting the anti-environment Bush in office over the true environmentalist Al Gore. Voters - wake up and reject the Nader charade.

I was elected as an alternate Democratic delegate (Obama supporter) from my precinct on Jan 19. When I saw on the Clark County Democratic Party website that ANYONE who participated in the Jan 19 Democratic caucus was encouraged to come to the county conventions and register as an alternate delegate, I wondered (1) why had I bothered with the caucus alternate delegate caucus process, and (2) would the county conventions around the state be overwhelmed. After the alternate delegates were told today to leave the convention hall, an hour into the speeches, etc, and report to a small room, the Bronze Room, so legitimate delegates could enter the main room, I understood. But there we sat in the Bronze Room (or squatted on the floor as I had to due to lack of chairs), for over two hours, with no video or audio connection to the main hall, being told repeatedly to be patient. After the initial motion to suspend the convention was voted down amidst screaming into the mocrophone, I left and went home.
