Hi! First here like we were first last night! =) What a night it was! We were there until a little after 11...it is still sinking in that we were able to meet, listen to and shake hands with President Clinton!

Obama’s win in NC proves beyond any doubt that he is a racially-based candidate. He can’t win the general election with just the blacks and the young. It would be another ‘Tsongas’ election! Clinton’s win in Indiana, by a slim margin, also raises the big question why Obama lost a state that he is supposed to win! With her win in WV, it was a loud alarm bell to warn the democrats that Obama, yet again, can’t connect with the majority of the Americans. The press ignores that Obama’s head was just given to him on a platter!
The media continues to be anti-Clinton. Her win should be presented in the proper context of the quality of each of these candidates’ electability!
The media has robbed the people of this country to see a strong campaign to continue in a fair and balanced manner. It is the worst kind of unprofessional and unethical journalism!

I was pleasantly surprised by being able to carry on a short conversation with Pres. Clinton last night on whitecollar crime. Many have forgotten or never knew of his pardon of millionaire Marc Rich with strong ties to the aluminum industry upon leaving office (or the millions donated after that pardon). Or of the ties of the Flathead Valley with former Rose Law Firm attorney, Joe Girior, Hillary’s partner in the Whitewater scandal. Mr. Girior was an attorney on the defense team of the CFAC case. After being fired for being a whistleblower, I haven’t forgotten. My words to Pres. Clinton were that his or Hillary’s actions in Washington DC reverberate even to this remote part of Montana. Vote for change in the same old politics in Washington.

Bill Clinton said, “This race is not over.”

I think that he really did inhale.

The Former President is correct “the race” isn’t over until there is a winner with 2210 pledged delegates. Obama & his supporters including the media biased MSNBC ,& Print would like us to believe that but they do not have the last word in this matter. I cringed when John Edwards stood in front of the camera & called Hillary “his friend” before he threw her to the ground & ran over her body while endorsing Obama. Do these people know the meaning of “friendship?”. “A true friend is one who is there for you through thick & thin, & will hold your hands while falling together. If you are a friend, you NEVER, no matter what turn your back on that friend. “ One does not need any enemies with friends like those”. Have you noticed that the train jumpers from Hillary to Obama are all males?. Why do you think that is?. Because these men are intimidated by having a “strong” woman be their leader, & they are not prepared to be led by a woman. They are trying to old unto the “good old boys network” & by god no woman is going to destroy that network. WOMEN all over America lets show them the “power” of who we really are. We are the “backbone” to everything successful, & without us behind, & beside their “Nominee” he WILL NEVER REACH THE WHITE HOUSE! John Edwards deliberately took away the media coverage & momentum from Hillary’s BIG WIN by his prime time endorsement, & they want us to forget & forgive all of the ugly attacks against Hillary? “NO WE WONT!”. He looked even more shallow when he dared to call her “his friend"( that was insulting) because those of us who know the “true” meaning of friend knew his words were as empty as was his reason for the endorsement. If they somehow succeeded in making Obama the Nominee, all we do as Hillary’s supporters let them have their party & we will come back stronger than ever in 4yrs. McCain will only have 1 term as President, so WE WILL BE BACK!

Tell Mr. Dakin to stick with Obama. Sure, the Clintons are great speakers/persuaders, because they pander and cater their speeches to what the audience wants to hear. Obama has the courage to tell it like it is. When Bill Clinton told the crowd, “When they say you can’t win, that means you can win, and they’re just afraid,” did Mr. Dakin realize that Hillary, Bill, and Chelsea have based 3/4 of their own platform on the argument that Obama cannot win.? This double-talk, double-entendre, and double, make that triple, propaganda out of the mouths of Clintons is truly despicable, because they do best with people/voters who don’t know any better.
