HAHAHA...totally fooled by the insider's report, ke garne?

BC boy!
since the fat lady had been singing loudly for weeks now, thought hillary auntie would finally, finally recognize the tune and concede to obama bro. looks like not coming...hahaha...seems to me that she is all up to add 2-3 more reels to the opera until the cops show up just to take their hats off on the deceased hahaha....or may be she wants to be rushed to the hospital to see if she can survive on coma for few more days?
but seriously now, what the heck?

Latoboy,
you want hillary auntie to win just because you think she's not gonna raise your tax? c'mon now, how shallow can you think than that? no wonder, sam is after your ass like anything hahaha..

but on a more serious note, ever gone through their tax policies in real? i highly doubt. it's a no-brainer that there is no 'fundamental' difference between the tax policies of obama and clinton.

and here's why:

1) both wans to increase the dividend gains tax rate (it's all about choosing Obama's 24% (max) to Hillary's 35%(max) )

2) both want to increase the capital gains tax rate (Obama's 24% to hillary's 20%-- which is same as it was in her husband's presidency).

3) both want to increase the top income tax bracket to 39.6%.

so essentially their policies are almost similar. both want to shift the burden from low/middle class people to the rich (according to their definition). Obama wants to eliminate capital gains on start-up companies to create more jobs.  hillary wants to mimic her husband's policies (more or less). she may have small credit and benefit packages for ordinaries to win their favor while obama wants to make the tax policies simple and easier to understand for ordinary people (Behavioral Economics)

And you say Mc Cain's policy is the best among three? Mc Cain will continue with the present Bush tax cut (15% on capital gains) but its gonna expire in 2011 and he will have to get an approval from congress to get it renewed. Understand that most of the republicans vehemently opposed Bush's tax cuts back in the days when it was introduced and getting it approved would be a momentous task for McCain in 2011. (if he wins the general election that is)

nepali man6e,
she should continue with the race just like huckabee did re? which race are you talking about? if you ask me, the race for democratic nomination was already over few weeks back. huckabee continued with the race just for the sake of its spirit as it got over a touch too early IMO when the race for democrats had actually just started. having come this far, hillary's denial to accept the bitter facts of the reality (for her) has come out to be a shock for people around the globe. initally i could only give plaudits to her spirit and enthusiasm, but now it looks nothing more than a cry-baby fighting with his mom for a toy.

and obama's nomination is historical in many sense. you see him as a muslim  and i see him as a fighter who fought and defied all odds that stood against him throughout  his campaign so far. heck, if you cannot  relate his campaign to your own lil path of struggle in this land of Uncle Sam, then i would say, you haven't seen enough of life, my friend.

i quite liked mccain until i saw his continued commitment to the bush's policy of war with iraq and relations with middle east in general.  you support mccain, that simply means you are a war-monger for me. as simple as that.

thanks everyone for your insights.
