Original article: Obama's double magic

GOOD LORD

That headline and graphic were hard to take.

Peggy Noonan never waxed so loonily over Reagan.

Sheesh.

Great Article and Analysis

Nice job.

You don't have to be a woman or even a feminist to have noticed the pile-on and to be offended enough by it to incorporate it into your voting decision. And the idea of putting a stake through the heart of the retch-worthy MSM is more than a legitimate consideration in determining how to cast one's vote.

Go Hillary.

Original article: "We're all fascists now"

Now that's why I visit Salon

To read interviews with Doughy Loadpants, in which DL is treated like a normal person.

What, are you trying to make Camille Paglia look acceptable?

Original article: Bill Clinton looks backward

Boring. The Clinton trashing has reached critical mass

You hysterical media people always go too far. The pile on will help Clinton once again. Sad to see Salon jumping on this cheap bandwagon.

Boring.

Original article: Campaign wrap

Smearing Clinton for the comments of some random idiot?

This is sucky, Salon.

Obama is too inexperienced to handle a crisis

It's pretty simple. Hillary Clinton has Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton. Both instill confidence in the 3am phone call scenario.

Obama has...whom?

We don't know. HE doesn't know.

Obama is vapor. Someone wrote an article this week saying he represents fatherless America + celebrity obsessed America + narcissistic America all rolled into one glib package.

Hammer, nail.

Too much at stake to put it all in the hands of this young, eviscerating, marketing lab experiment.

Stay in to win, Hillary

If Hillary stays in the race and the superdelegates decide, good.

After the last several weeks of Obama's media coronation and outspending her four to one, Obama still can't put her away. Why? Because a hell of a lot of Democratic voters won't vote for Obama. Some of them won't vote at all if Obama is nominated and some will defect to McCain.

How many? Obama will lose Pennsylvania, Ohio, Florida, and a new poll in New Jersey shows him losing by 2 to McCain (Hillary wins by 11).

Stay as long as it takes, Hillary. Obama can't win in November.

Does Obama think Reagan was better than Clinton?

Yes, yes he does. He said so.

Obama is tearing the party apart. If he loses tomorrow he should drop out.

Any Democratic candidate who campaigns against the last successful Democratic president while praising Ronald Reagan should be run out of the party on a rail.

I won't vote for a do-nothing, know-nothing like Barack Obama in a general election. Too much at stake.

Let's hope it's Clinton, the only candidate who can do the job and who has a chance against McCain.

Original article: Let 'em duke it out

I AGREE

Let them duke it out, and in the most negative ways they can think of. It's all going to be thrown at them by the Republicans anyway so let's see how they deal with it.

We all know Clinton can take it on and beat it.

On the other hand Obama collapsed after less than a week of the mildest criticism any candidate has ever gotten. Not a good sign for his electability prospects.

Obama is becoming a Clown

Oops, didn't mean what I said about NAFTA. Oops, didn't mean what I said about Iraq. WHOOPS pressed the wrong button. WHOOP, my chief financial advisor is a lunatic.

This guy is embarrassing. I can't believe anyone is still seriously backing him. Every myth about him has been shattered but his disciples feel too invested to get out.

Must suck.

First choice Clinton, second choice McCain

I won't vote for Obama at the top of the ticket. I don't trust him to be able to handle foreign policy OR the economy.

If Obama wins the nomination, I will vote for McCain. The latest polls on this question show this to be true for approximately 25% of Clinton supporters, twice as many as Obama supporters.

If Obama tries to intimidate the party into nominating him despite Clinton's popular vote advantage (with Florida and Michigan, which WILL count), all hell will break lose.

Democrats aren't ready to let another election be stolen by an tantrum thrower with no experience or plan who thinks he's entitled to have our nomination handed to him.

Been there done that, have the disastrous foreign policy and economy to show for it.

Obama Can't Win

That's funny, every Democrat I talk to says they support Clinton over McCain, and when I ask them if they would support Obama were he nominated, they don't say they wouldn't -- they laugh out loud.

Pampered college students aside, Obama's got a big problem with people who work for a living in big, important Democratic swing states like Pennysylvania, Ohio, and Florida. Voters over 55 don't like him. Latinos don't like him. Women don't like him. Blue collar white men don't like him.

It can't be wished away and the superdelegates know as much.

Apologies

In 2006, Obama gave $22,500 to Pastor Jeremiah Wright, his "spiritual mentor" who said the US government created AIDS to infect and kill black people.

Gerry Ferraro needs to apologize.

BO's Poor Judgment

If Barack Obama joined the church for political reasons it proves what many of us already know: He's an opportunist and a dishonest empty suit who doesn't stand for anything and demonstrates poor political judgment.

If he joined it out of conviction and agreement, he's something else: a radical and a lunatic with poor moral judgment.

Either way, the fact that Obama belonged to this church for 20 years proves BO's judgment is poor.

Strange Cult

All of Barack Obama's "virtues" have been shown to be illusions, yet his followers still follow.

The post-racial candidate's history as an enthusiastic member of Wright's racist church is as racial and divisive as anyone can get.

The ethical candidate let a slumlord buy him a house.

The principled candidate has a paper trail of wrong button pushes and "present" votes.

The unifier has a wife that hates America except during those times in which her husband is a presidential candidate.

Yet BO's followers still follow.

Fascinating and more than a little weird.

Original article: Obama's speech on race

Damage Control, not leadership

Any speech loses its luster when it's given for damage control.

This speech was more of the same from Oprahma the empty suit.
