Wait until after Halloween, then freak-out and try to figure out how to get all those bitter Hillary Democrats to support Obama.

It leads nowhere too

if the progressive blogosphere had called Obama out for all of his.

After Kamiya and Traister, this post is not surprise.

But it is disappointing.

Salon used to be a class act.

for Obama's deficiencies.

The problem is the candidate, not the voters.

instead of being just an Obama 527.

Kool-aid causes brain damage

just before an election, to avoid the appearance of trying to affect the vote.

Even though the Bush administration abandoned that policy, it is still a good idea.

"Troopergate" wasn't a priority until Palin was nominated, now all of a sudden they want to rush to judgment before the election. Why?

There is no reason for the state of Alaska to be in a hurry on this. Either Palin will be there to investigate after November 5th, or she'll be leaving and the issue will be moot.

The fact that her opponents claim a "need to know" is no reason for Alaska to be in a hurry.

How about some actual racial epithets? Something we don't need a decoder ring to recognize as racist?

"But she IS a bitch."

Now that Obamanation has trashed the progressive label, they can keep it.

Too bad we can't get them to stop calling themselves Democrats.

Now the HillaryHaters are shocked and awed by reality.

They're too busy watching their heads explode.

Can you back that assertion up with evidence?

You have become a liabilty to The Lightbringer, so he wants you gone.

It reminds me of what G-Dub said when Ken "Kenny-boy" Lay was arrested:

"Ken who?"

When they were investigating Rezko the Chicago news said he was connected to Blago and Obama.

They convicted Rezko, now they have arrested Blago.

But Obama is doing just fine.

Or did they give you hot pants instead?

Cheerleaders wear uniforms, right?

"I tried to keep an open mind when Obama began courting Warren three years ago; Salon sent a reporter to cover the popular young Democrat's first visit to Saddleback Community Church, to talk about its laudable AIDS work, in 2006."

C'mon Joan, tell us more! Why did Salon give a f*ck what Obama was doing back then??

Funny you should say that. I just did a post the other day at The Confluence documenting astroturfed reactions to Obama's "Greatest Speech on Race EVAH" last year and how two different commenters just a few minutes apart claimed to have been moved to tears just reading a transcript of the speech.

Don't you guys ever use any original stuff?

Barack Obama is constitutionally inclined to be a conciliator and a difference-splitter. As a legislator in Illinois, he was noted for his ability to get different parties to come together.

Can you provide an example or are you just repeating Axelrod's talking points?

is bad policy.

It should be legalized (for adults) and taxed.

Alex wants to get his PDS on.

When did misogyny become a liberal value?

Do you write your own articles or does Axelrod fax them to you?

C'mon Alex, admit it. You just want another chance to sniff her panties.

Being a liberal should mean more than the names of the people we hate.

I want to be better than them, not just like them. We're supposed to have principles and morals.

I don't care about Limbaugh, but we should be setting an example, not following his.

includes marriage

Sarah rejected the idea.

Why is this news?

Better late than never, right Joan?

What did Rihanna do, hit him in the fists with her face?

You really need to buy a clue.

Other than helping the rich get richer that is.

Wake up and smell the arugula Joan - Obama is Bush III

The Democrats have supermajorities in both houses, and you're blaming the Republicans . . . why?

unless acting like fools was what they wanted them to do.

But if the right wing controls editorial content at MSNBC then why has it been the Obama Network?

Why weren't they supporting McCain? Why were they bashing Sarah Palin?

"As she matures, she’ll likely be able to hang on to her younger “Hannah Montana” fans while she vies for the attention of a new audience of masturbation enthusiasts."

As she matures, won't her Hannah Montana fans be getting older too?

The health insurance industry and Big Pharma gave Obama a lot of money last year - more than anyone else - to make sure health care reform doesn't happen.

Follow the money.

With the Democratic party, failure is a feature not a bug.

"so many lefty bloggers and activists anointed Obama the progressive choice ignoring his legislative bona fides"

Look in a mirror Joan - you're talking about yourself.

If they did they would not have taken single payer off the table before they started.

Tabloid trash - maybe for his next trick Koppelman can take over the Jerry Springer Show.

Both creepy and wrong.

Reading these comments is like wading through a sexist sewer.

Where were you last year when the Party Unity My Ass people were saying that?

I'm very proud of the reporting I did during the campaign, and of the work I'm doing with the team at OpenLeft. We don't carry water for individual politicians - we're honest and straightforward about trying to do our part to build a movement. And that means there's going to be praise and criticism - all at the same time. That doesn't make us the hypocrites in American politics - not even close. Indeed, the real hypocrites are those who insist they care about the future of this country, but either disengage or actively work to undermine a president because their favored candidate didn't win.

Heckuva job, Dave!

Congress won't be chanting "Fired up, ready to go!" tomorrow night.

Get a grip and focus. You're just having a Kool-aid flashback.
