. . . I guess that the fact that Mrs. Rezko bought her property the exact same day as Obama did escape from your mathematics and is completely meaningless. Or that fact that Mrs. Rezko (BTW, why is his wife doing land deals on his behalf?) paid way above market to compensate for the deal that Obama got for THE HOUSE, not the little strip bought afterwards to certify the price.
Interesting and very hypocritical too.
Now my question is . . . why all judgements on the Clintons can to be so subjective (code words, implications and all assorted BS repeated over and over again) and everything said about Obama has to be said with mathematical precision?
Poor Hillary, its going to be some rocky eight years.
After Obama was elected to the U.S. Senate, he and Rezko's wife bought adjoining pieces of property, then she turned around and sold him hers for just a fraction of what she'd paid for it. According to the Sun-Times, it was "widely known" at the time of that deal that Rezko was under federal investigation; he was indicted less than a year later. T.G.
If Obama thinks that there is nothing to explain here, he is dangerously underestimating the American people.
Now if Hillary is such a monster, why hasn't she exploited this fact further? restricting herself to a mere mention in the SC debate. The Chicago Sun Times as told to whomever is willing to listen about this deal and about the fact that on top of Obama's lot there was also a cute mansion.
"Then she reminds her competitors that they, like she, pledged not to campaign in Florida or Michigan, and that she will "expect" them to abide by that pledge." T.G.
"She has by far the best name recognition in Florida so would win because no one else has campaigned." Anonymous
Can someone explain to me, why have I been seeing Obama TV spots in Miami for the last 3 days?
. . . exact same scenario . . . just replace the "NH progressives" with SC "African Americans", same poll numbers, same expectation and same "analysis", and nobody is saying it but Obama's lead is shrinking.
The Clinton Camp is wise announcing defeat, that will only make their victory sweeter. And even if Hillary loses SC, she will seal the deal on Super Tuesday, with the previous, if just nominal, win in Florida were Obama has been running endless TV Commercials for about three days now.
I wonder what he meant . . .
He IS the other side.
