Just Do Some Blog Cruising

It's the Obama crowd relisting all of the past vetting of Hillary. Then Hillary gets out the kitchen sink and the wimps panic.......MY GOD SHE'S DESTROYING THE PARTY.

I'm Not Validating Anything

That's just the way it is. Despite hope. You need to man up. You don't cry. You fight.

Hillary

Is already vetted. Has been for years...........I like that word--vetted. It's the foundation of our politics, like it or not.

You Can't Condemn Hillary

For fear mongering in Texas......It's the land of Dubya. You do what you have to do.

Part Of Vetting

Is just tossing a bunch of hooey around and seeing what sticks.

Hope Is Not To Be Ridiculed In It's Totality

If it eventually comes down to only two human beings left and all they have is hope, well, that's better than nothing or negative.

But hope has restrictions. And hoping that vetting will cease is a blood relative to hoping that war will cease.

Even if Obama wins the presidency that is not hope winning out over vetting. It will get worse after he wins.

All's Fair

In love and vetting.

Just For The Record

I do not priase the dark underbelly of vetting.........I'm just saying I prefer a candidate who is a veteran at receiving and administering it. That is experience.

I'd Say

In general terms that the real estate industry is very suspicious. Damn near every deal in one way or another.

show me

Don't hold your breath on that one.......Now the line is Hillary is destroying the party. Chicken little stuff. The Obama camp is so confident and inspiring that they are already setting her up as the scapegoat for their defeat.

Fantastic Point

About how the supporters of each side look at it.........It doesn't matter if the vetting is true or not. If it's about my candidate it's not true.

An Opponent Of Obama

Would be politically derelict of duty to not say "Rezko" every now and then. Don't need specifics or falsehoods.

Settle Down

Christopher. Bush sent the soldiers to Iraq, not Hillary.

The Grassy Knoll

About 1/2 hour after the assassination (before the name Oswald has even surfaced) a few miles from the assassination site, we have a one cop slowly driving along a residential area. He pulls up to a guy walking along, and that turns out to be the assassin.

The Cop Didn't Let Him Go

He shot the cop.

The Issue

Clinton Is Electable

Obama isn't.

And

If Hillary ends up winning New York, California, New Jersey, Ohio, Texas and goes in to the convention with substantial wins in Pennsylvania and revotes in Florida and Michigan, and has the lead in the total popular vote and no one has 2,025 delegates the super-delegates will put her over, as it should be.

The Obama Argument At That Point

That he won a bunch of caucuses 5 months ago--will not be very convincing.

Sorry Obama Flock

If Obama wins the nomination and loses the general it's not Hillary's fault. It says something about them that they are already lining up their excuse.

The Obama Folks

Are still stumbling around woozy from the kitchen sink coming down on their heads.

KcM

You're in fantasyland. If Clinton can get substantial wins in Pennsylvania along with the same in redos in Florida and Michigan and she takes the lead in the overall popular vote, you better tighten up your diaper.

Thursday, March 6, 2008 09:55 AM

If Hillary

Can get a substantial win In Pennsylvania, and the same in redos in Florida and Michigan, and can take the lead in the overall popular vote, I absolutely refuse to help change Obamabot diapers.

Thursday, March 6, 2008 10:20 AM

The Party

Is starting to doubt. Obama couldn't close the sale in New Hampshire. He couldn't close the sale late Super Tuesday in California, and he couldn't close the sale in Texas and Ohio. Now late deciding voters are going to Hillary.

This guy would be a disaster in the general.

Thursday, March 6, 2008 11:36 AM

The Obama Crowd

Has not been arguing that the super delegates base their decision on their state results........Therefore if Hillary takes the popular vote lead, supers should go to her and the will of the people.

Thursday, March 6, 2008 11:57 AM

Hutman

You mean like Florida and Michigan redos?

Thursday, March 6, 2008 12:00 PM

While You May Not Be Voting For Hillary In The Primary

You have to appreciate the sheer drive and adaptation.........She's gonna kitchen sink the dude for 3 or 4 months then have Michigan and Florida redos.

Thursday, March 6, 2008 12:14 PM

e-five

Yes, I really want a revote in Michigan.

Thursday, March 6, 2008 12:29 PM

Id Be More Than Happy

To support and vote for Obama in the general. But his campaign has some tests to pass. If we get opposition to new Florida and Michigan primaries, or insisting that they be caususes. Or if Hillary was to take a popular vote lead, and we get a new definition of what supers have to do, it's gonna be pretty damn lame.

Thursday, March 6, 2008 12:47 PM

My Deeepest Darkest Fantasy

Is to be vetted by Glenn.

Thursday, March 6, 2008 01:25 PM

It Took 4 Posts And A Couple Minutes

For some wimp to say she's destroying the party.

It's Too Late

He already destroyed the party. If McCain loses it was because of Paul.

Friday, March 7, 2008 05:32 AM

I Believe

The republican party cornerstone plank on limited federal government pertains to when republicans are not in power.

Friday, March 7, 2008 05:39 AM

They May Not Do A 180

If it was Hillary, but it'd be at least 150.

Friday, March 7, 2008 05:43 AM

But Point Taken

They think they own it, so even when they don't, when they get it back they inherit all powers accumulated whenever.

Friday, March 7, 2008 05:49 AM

You Have To Give Them Credit

They preach limited governmental power (and spending) with a straight face........I keep waiting for one of them to say that it's the states that should be spying on us.

J. Edgar

Is spinning in his grave. He'd be having a blast these days.

I Don't Know

How much bin Laden has changed things. I wrote a letter to the Syrian embassy about 20 years ago. I wonder if I made some list.

Friday, March 7, 2008 07:12 AM

Theory

I'm not sure there would be much difference on how any President would respond to something like 9-11. In response the sacred mission would be to "protect the people" and play the patriotism card---and that, day in day out, would lead to abuse and over-reach.

Friday, March 7, 2008 07:24 AM

What Needed To Be Said By A President

On the night of 9-11 is --We have to guard against, in every respect, over-reacting to this......But they just can't say that.

Friday, March 7, 2008 08:04 AM

Is Samantha?

The one who, the other day, responded to the 3-AM phone call add by saying neither one of them is ready.
