Wyoming governor backs Obama
Another former Clintonite, after months of soul-searching, is supporting Barack Obama for president instead.
Dave Freudenthal, in his second term as Wyoming governor, got his start in politics when former President Bill Clinton named him US attorney for Wyoming in 1994, a job Freudenthal held until 2001.
Obama swamped Hillary Clinton in the Wyoming caucuses on March 8.
"The negativity, partisanship and lack of purpose that characterize our national debate and government are crippling this country," Freudenthal said in a statement issued by the Obama campaign. "While no one individual can effect this change alone, the change must begin with someone. Senator Obama is the Democratic candidate with the openness, honesty and skill to end this vicious cycle of business as usual."
Freudenthal, though not as big a name, joins Bill Richardson of New Mexico as a Western governor who used to work for Bill Clinton now backing Obama.



Clear examples of CLINTONS Betrayal of using and dumping friends.
CLINTONS needs to know now that if they dump 'em, they are actually helping them get out like free birds flying at their will and interest of their states.
CLINTONS are still in the race to DESTROY Democrats for 2008 so they can win easily on McS(h)ame in 2012.
Americans are NOT STUPID CLINTONS. Your plans are known to each VOTER except those who still believe Earth is not in Circular shape.
Another Judas?
Looks like the Judas comment is getting a little worn out...creating division seems to be all Carville and the Clinton supporters can muster. Down with the negativity already!
OBAMA '08!
The Clintons are only interested in power, their own, at any cost -- even at the cost of the Democratic party. While Billary has the right to run to the end, it is not wise for this election. She should be thinking of her party, which she and Bill seem to be willing to sacrifice for their own quest for power. She has shown she cannot be trusted to tell the truth, and will resort to whatever downright slimy dirty tricks she can think of to get the power she (and Bill) so desperately seeks. But at this point in time, it is evident she cannot win enough delegates -- she needs to win 2/3 of every state left, which is highly unlikely -- so in the interest of the Democratic party, she should bow out.
The fact that Chelsea-but-don't-ask Clinton backed her mother's story on Bosnia that they came under sniper fire shows that every member of this family are willing to lie to the American public repeatedly and with no regret.
America needs an honest leader more than we need another person willing to lie to the American public and the world.
Bill Clinton was caught telling falsehoods repeatedly through his presidency. When they left the White House they were forced to return furniture and property belonging to the White House (to all US Citizens). We went through Travelgate, WhiteWater, the pork futures, Vince Foster's murder, items and documents turning up after the statute of limitations has run out, Monica, Jennifer Flowers, lying under oath, being one of the few presidents to be impeached, and now we have a chance at an honest person.
When Clinton needed a prayer council all day, televised on the day Lewinski's dress hit the news Rev. Wright was there at Bill's side. Now that HRC has sunk to use the race card, as it seems to be the only thing left that persuades the uneducated minority of Americans that still support her, she seems to forget that Rev. Wright was there when Bill's presidency was on the line.
I am a former Republican, who now supports Obama. People may not like that he is friends with Rev. Wright, but in the spotlight, unlike the Clintons, he shows that he is an honest man who stands by those who stood by him.
The Clintons embarrassed us for eight years. They now take credit for the dot com bubble and say that was Clinton magically creating a great economy. Did we all forget about Enron, WorldCom, and the countless scandals of Wall St? Bush ruined our name around the world and lied to us to spend trillions on a war where private companies and oil companies and the war machine made money while Americans go without, lose their jobs and NONE of that money was spent to keep the USA competitive globally through investments in education, infrastructure and specifically national work projects to take us OFF petroleum for good.
16 years of our lives wasted between Bush Jr. and Clinton.
It is time for an honest man. It is time for Barack Obama
OBAMA ALL THE WAY
My question is whether we'll ever see the NY Times recant its Hillary endorsement. I believe Obama is a uniter in a way GW Bush never was. It's also pretty clear that there are plenty of people who aren't interested in being united. The complaint that Obama is somehow being hypocritical when he calls for national cooperation misses the point entirely. The point is he is using his campaign to promote the idea of collaborative problem solving across party lines. Regardless of any personal failings, this is a message worth getting behind.
Two more endorsements for Senator Obama!!! And an endorsement from one of the unions backing Hillary!! It is going to get better yet! Senator Obama's message is chrystal clear: "A GOVERNMENT BY THE PEOPLE, FOR THE PEOPLE, AND OF THE PEOPLE"!! This is what "we, the people", have been hungering for!!
Obama 08, Ready to Go, and YES WE CAN!!
Notice the Governor didn't bash Clinton. I'm an Obama supporter, but have empathy for Clinton and Clinton supporters.
Clinton Plan:
All of the high ranking Democratic Party leaders are screaming for party unity and directly or indirectly asking Hillary to drop out of the race. But my question is which race everybody is talking about. At this stage Hillary is not fighting to get nominated for the 2008 race. She knows very well that she already lost it. She has no chance to win the nomination. Then the question may arise why she is still running than? She is saying that she will stay till the day of the convention. So does Bill too. The reason why she is saying that because she is preparing the ground for 2012 race. Here is my argument:
Hillary will continue her negative campaigning against Obama till the day of convention. She and bill will leave no stone unturned to make Obama bad in the eye of American people. She and her surrogate will damage Obama to that point that he lost in the general election against McCain. That’s her main goal right now. Now McCain is 71 years old and if elected he will be in White House for one term and he is not going to run for another term and for sure he will follow the path of bush in all policies. He might do some cosmetic change but he will never do any U-tern from bush policies. Now after consecutive 3rd term of Republican Presidency, American undoubtly will not choose any republican nominee and there she comes in. and it will be like a piece of cake for her. For Obama this election is his only hope. If he loose in the November election, he will never come back in 2012. But for Hillary Clinton, after this primary, she will go for NY governor ship election and every indication is that she will win and after 4 years of governor of NY State, she will appear as a formidable democratic candidate for a re run in the 2012 presidential race where Obama will not have a chance to compete. The experience …her most talk about phrase will be the real assets for her then. At the present time she does not want any democratic candidate to have the White House except herself because she knows, if Obama win the White House, he might run a second term in 2012 and it will be more difficult for her to compete against a sitting president. And she will not let that happen. She does not care about the upcoming Supreme Court judge selection. She knows very well that if republican get the White House for next term they will selection there man for judge but she does not care.
They were well prepared for 2008 back in 2000.only thing that they did not anticipate that Obama will rise from 2004 convention speech. With all the poll results, they figure out that after Super Tuesday, Obama will not have a chance to stand up forget about running. Keeping in mind that they have spend most of their resources in the super Tuesday primary because they thought he will not have a chance after that and when they saw that result were not as they expected that change their strategy from positive campaigning to more and more negative campaigning.
Now, judge yourself where we are standing right now.
I heard in the news aliens have landed in New Mexico. I wonder if it is a real alien or JAMES CARVILLE. Governor of New Mexico watch out they will take in to custody and water boarding you.
Alien Images Appeared in New mexico last week. Are they sure it is an alien and not just James Carville?
Richardson endorsed Obama and if they don't waterboard him they should
James Carville is right Richardson,Casey,Kerry and lots of others are distant
relitives of Judas and probably should suffer the same fate but maybe we should
give them time to spend their 30 pieces of silver.
