		<description>You got it right Carl. This guy Bisram is under the deluded  condition that he alone is privy to what is going on in the election campaign. 

The idea that Clinton was gaining momentum is ludicrous. Those wins she picked up at the end were always going to be hers. That they were not landslides suggests that &quot;gaining momentum&quot; is abuse of a euphemism in describing them. 

Hilary Clinton did not bow out gracefully. She fought tooth and nail to change something she publicly committed herself to at the beginning of the campaign. That is her support for the decision to sanction Michigan and Florida for moving up their primaries. Reneging on one&#039;s word is not indicative of &quot;bowing out gracefully&quot;. Vishnu Bisram is an objective political commentator, NOT!!!!!!</description>

		<description>Bisram writes as if no one else has access to the news. It is utter nonsense that Hillary Clinton &quot;bowed out gracefully&quot;, for every serious follower of U.S. politics knows that she was forced out by the New York congessional delegation and other influential Democrats, who were some of her most ardent supporters.

The truth be told, Hillary Clinton used supporters such as Harold Ickes and Terry McAuliffe to publicly mouth and test her intention to take her case to the Democratic convention in Colorado. But her party&#039;s elders and others prevailed upon her to put party unity above her personal interest. And she acceded only when it became clear that the aforementioned New York delegation and other supporters had no intention to support her plans.

So Bisram is entitled to his views, however questionable and baseless they are, on the fight that Obama faces.  But after having being wrong in his barnyard prediction about Obama losing the Democratic nomination, he need not now resort to falsehoods as a backdrop to his attempt at assessing the challenge that McCain poses for Obama.</description>

		<description>Another letter from Bisram,

Now it&#039;s time for his critics to respond...haha. 

While I think Obama doesn&#039;t want to run with Clinton, I don&#039;t think he can win without her and her supporters.

This election shouldn&#039;t be close at all but Americans r very sensitive when it comes to politics...r they ready for a Black President---I guess we just have to wait and see....</description>
