2. It seems the Dems
are learning from the rethugs how to extract the most advantage from someone elses tragedy.

4. I think it means that we all need to consider our candidates in the context of the situation
as a supporter of Sen. Clinton, I still think she's the best person of the job, but I'm not going to tell other people what they should do.

7. No, I am saying is you don't blame your opponent for a political
murder for which there is no direct connection between the assassin and your opponent. Wow! I can not believe alexrod said that. Beyond the fact that the problems of resources in Pakistan are not related to Iraq:

where was Obama on funding of Iraq and Pakistan for his tenure in the Senate? What did He do? According to Axelrod, is Obama to blame for the Bhutto assassination too? Outrageous stuff from the Obama campaign.

Obama should be made to give a public apology to Senator Clinton for what axelrod said.

10. When AIPAC Neo-Cons like Clinton apologize for pushing the war in Iraq
Then i will agree that Obama should apologize....so it will NEVER happen

11. Quite frankly
I don't see any event anywhere altering who I think the nominee should be. We should be supporting the candidate we honestly think is the best possible one. And I recognize that there are strong differences of opinion about the very candidates and who in the end we should nominate, but as for me, something like the assassination of Bhutto does not change my opinion of Hillary. Nor of Obama. Nor of Edwards. Nor of Kucinich. Nor of Richardson. And with apologies to whoever I've left out.

15. No, but we shouldn't nominate an inexperienced candidate like Obama either.
