dumb ass dude was tryin to light fire about why obama's supporters are saying hillary should quit the face................. in reference to your article about obama supporters calling for hillary's giving up, you said that hillary won texas, ohio, and rhode island. well as a jouirnalist i am sure that you are aware that this is a battle over delegates, which i am confident that by now you should be aware that Obama WON Texas. so please quit the propaganda and report the correct news. bill and everybody in hillary's campaign can be cquoted as saying that if hillary did not win ohio AND texas that she should drop out. well, hillary did NOT win ohio and texas, so how can you as a respected journalist blame obama's supporters for repeating exactly what hillary's camp had been saying over a month ago? it is your duty to be unbias and feed the people with the facts beforte you report the news, how about doing that next time you write an article trying to throw mud on obama's supporters who are just reflecting the realityt of the election. quit your position immediately
The poor grammar and spelling mistakes of your letter bother me. I'm sure they'd bother a respectable journalist too. I hope that you at least manage to make him giggle.

Her reply Thanks for your note. Hillary won the Texas primary, where voters vastly outnumbered the number of caucus goers.•yes, it is about delegates. But if that is all you are going on, then Obama did not win Missouri, since they split delegates evenly there. Best, Marie Cocco Syndicated Columnist Washington Post Writers Group
Not that I care, but that's hardly an excuse. If you want to be taken serious - use capital letters and proper grammar.
Obama actually won more delegates in Texas, after all the counting and caucuses finally wrapped up last week. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/03/30/obama-win-appears-big-in-_n_94139.html Also, one day before Clinton's camp said Obama was trying to stifle the voters and force her to quit, Obama came out publicly and said he thought she should stay in the race. Guess she missed that story.
Had to son this hag "Nonsense. You're right in that hillary won missouri, but how is that of any relevance? Obama nor any of his supporters ever said, if obama does not win missouri, he needs to quit. In contrast, hillarys own husband as well as many other contributors to her campaign can be quoted stating that if hillary does not win texas and ohio that it should be over for her. What is going on here is the media, you included, trying to victimize hillary clinton and characterize her opposition unfairly. The reality of the situation is that people calling for a swifter end to the contest are only looking out for the benefit of the party. People wanting the party to avoid further damage aren't automatically Obama supporters and hillary clinton opposers. The fact is, hillary's rhetoric constantly lessens the democrats chance in november. She accuses obama of disenfranchasing voters in MI and FL when she had also agreed and in recorded words I might add, to not allowing their delegates to be seated. Now that she has barely any chance to win, she's willing to accept any hurried and unfair voting effort in those states. Im sure if the situations were reversed she would not want an election unless it was full proof. "
I've occasionally written comments to journalists, and it can really be worthwhile sometimes, especially if the reporter really TRIED to get it right.
This lady has been criticized for her rediculous articles ignoring the facts in favor of clinton. http://rebello.wordpress.com/2008/03/06/spin-of-the-week-from-marie-cocco/ http://rebello.wordpress.com/2008/04/01/marie-cocco-wins-spin-of-the-week-for-the-second-time/ http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/dgreenesmith/gGBxHL http://209.157.64.200/focus/f-news/1972791/posts
