If the supporters for Obama did not show up to vote because they were told that their vote did not count, then why did some people vote “uncommitted” or vote for Dennis Kucinich? That argument is bogus and from the spin cycle.
As far as Florida, if Obama supposedly did not win is because he did not have enough time to become known, then how come over 500,000 people voted for him if they did not know about him? Also if they were rallied to the voting booth under the pretense that they were voting for some property tax reform then why did they also vote for Hillary? They could have just voted for the tax reform and not Hillary, so again that is a bogus argument. Also, Obama did advertise (also known as campaigning) in Florida.
Here is my transcript of the Obama ad seen on Florida cable outlets for the week leading up to Florida:
"BARACK OBAMA: I’m Barack Obama and I approve this message.
OBAMA (2004 Democratic National Convention): We are one people, all of us pledging allegiance to the stars and stripes.
Announcer: After college and law school, Barack Obama could have cashed in. Instead he fought for change. Working to rebuild an area torn apart by plant closings.
HARVARD LAW PROFESSOR LAURENCE TRIBE: It was inspiring, absolutely inspiring to see someone as brilliant as Barack Obama… take all of the talent and devote it to… making people’s lives better.
Announcer: In Illinois he brought Republicans and Democrats together. Cutting taxes for workers and winning healthcare for children.
ILLINOIS STATE SENATOR KIRK DILLARD: Senator Obama worked on some of the deepest issues we had and he was successful in a bipartisan way.
Announcer: And in the U.S. Senate, he’s led on issues from arms control to landmark ethics reform.
U.S. SENATOR CLAIRE McCASKILL: It was hard to get that ethics bill passed. This is a man who knows how to get things done. He understands that we’ve to move forward with a different kind of politics.
OBAMA: There is not a liberal America and a conservative America — there is the United States of America."
So there you have it! Obama does not play by the rules and wants Hillary and the Super Delegates to change the rules right along with him and is mad because everyone wont jump on the Obama Fire Engine!
Also to say that the Obama supporters are educated and elite is just false. They do not know the definition of elite. They wouldn’t know an elitist if they came and slapped them silly. What they consider educated are people who are currently attending college and are there with the financial support of their parents. What they consider elite and rich is having 10+ credit cards and an overpriced home that they can’t afford and SUV’s that consume the bulk of the barrels of oil we are all paying $100 for but yet say they care about “being green!” Real elitist have funds in all places such as the stocks, bonds, ROTH IRA’s, CD’s, 401K’s, invest in the National Treasury, Savings, and have virtually no debt. How can so many people that are supporting Obama truly be elite if the average American has 9 credit cards and a minimum of $40-60,000 of debt and no savings? It is the real wealthy people that have supported this country and will never vote for Obama because he wants to mess with their money and have even stated that the day Obama takes office that the stock market will drop by 3000 points which would really spiral the economy out of control. If they were so educated they would understand finance and the economy and how it is related to domestic and foreign affairs.
I don’t even know why I waste my time, all of you are “hopeless” which is why you are so magnetic to the first B.O.zo that comes along claiming he is the only path to hope. It is alright, he is a plagiarist and a liar and his actions are already coming to light like the real truth always does.
And to those of you that say you are for Obama because he was “against” the war, then why don’t you vote for Ron Paul because he was in the congress for real and he did not vote for the war and he voted against the Patriot Act for real. So why don’t you anti-war Obama supporters support Ron Paul? Because you are uninformed as to what the issues really are and who stands for what.
I mentioned in my post that the line was from a Wendy's commercial. Which one of us isn't carefully reading?
You didn't respond to any of the facts in my original reply to you, so I find no reason to give you new facts to back up my argument. Deaf ears, baby, deaf ears. You're a horse wearing blinders. A shill. A hack. A partisan lackey. A stooge. Gullible. And finally, you are a victim of the Clinton spin machine. How does it feel to know you are being laughed at? Not by me, I feel sorry for you. Howard Wolfson is laughing at you. With good reason.
Yep..this is DOWN-right stupid. Talk about trying to make something out of nothing. Looked like to me he was trying to blow-off her desperate attacks..what would you all have liked him to say because evidently nothing would have been right.
Fuck off. I told you before that I don't reply to people who call me Honey.
it's an amazing coincidence isn't it that the "truth" just happens to be what provides the most quick money to the people who own the mechanisms which tell people what the truth is. Amazing. Anti-choice, no-tax Ron Paul. Hey but he's against the war. What a guy.
i'll concede that 'where's the beef' poster is rather trollish, but he made an excellent point, and one it seems you're ducking-- why don't you apply the same standards of what constitutes plagiarism to hillary herself?
