Obambi and His Vulgar Wife
We can only hope and pray that Wisconsins are sapped out on HOpe speeches and that Texans and Ohioans are more sensible than so many here.
Obambi's "speeches" , plagarized as it were, and his ever more dangerous mouthed wife are setting up for a Record Land Slide defeat to John McCain.

Oprah, Despicable
Despicable racist she is, setting the Dems up for another defeat, she should be harpooned and fed to the hungry after Obama is creamed by McCain.

Obama in a nutshell
Obama has been demonstrated as:
1. A crook
2. a fraud
3. self-entitled
4. a shitty representative to the poor
5. an at best pulled-out-of-the-arse healthcare bill
4. using plagarism in his rhetoric
5. showing he is bought and paid for with a watered down nuclear bills
6. and 2.5 million dollar homes extorted from indicted slumlords
7. having 2 Muslim fathers as the nation is fighting islamic terrorism
8. Has been endorsed by hated liberal dinosaurs like Kennedy.
and is "pro-abortion"
10. engaging in deliberately sexist campaign technique
11. married to a loose cannon.
12. wimpy. (apologized to McCain in a public letter after McCain called him "disingenuous" in the Senate.
yeah, this should go good on the air.

@Linda English
Thank you for your letter. It restores my faith that there's anyone left in the "left" at all that can give a damn about anyone besides themselves and their favorite ax to grind.

HILLARY IS BEING INVESTIGATED FOR CAMPAIGN FRAUD!
Hillary is now being investigated for campaign fraud. Well, it doesn't suprise me, given the other scandals she has been involved in- Cattlegate, Whitewater, Forstergate etc...

Obama UP BIG in Wisconsin
I am really glad to see voters are rejecting the Clinton crime family.

I told you so
Never ignore the north of the state of Wisconsin. Obama came here for a full-fledged campaign stop along with a number of sites up north, and people went nuts over him. It got lots of press. WPR here ran a straw poll this morning and Obama won overwhelmingly.
Huckabee showed up and did a perfunctory stop, and people were not impressed. Most of the Republicans and Democrats here are moderates. In the north, think pragmatists.
Hilary should have visited Eau Claire, Wausaw, and/or La Crosse. That would have gotten her more votes. Her people were here. The real problem for here is that the establishment Democratic party up north is disorganized. Obama bypassed them. An Obama supporter and a McCain supporter knocked on my door on Saturday (not at the same time). No Clinton supporter showed up on my door in the great white frozen north.
In person, she wins. But her campaign needs to get it together. That campaign is badly orgnaized. The Clinton camp here is barely visible, versus McCain and Obama.
If this is what she's doing, Clinton needs a new strategist.

Sen. Clinton Has No Grace
Senator Clinton could not even find the grace to thank those who voted for her in Wisconsin. Then she speaks for 45 minutes, in essence attempting to filibuster Obama.
Sure, this is, in part, why those of us who are die-hard D's have gone in droves to Obama's camp.
We have taken the measure of the person and she ...comes up short...
Character is a hugely important issue in this primary.
Sen. Clinton's attitude in this instance is generally reflective of Sen. Clinton's tendency toward dismissiveness, not only of Obama, but also of her own constituents...
She continues to be her own worst enemy.
She moves from issue to issue...plagiarism, appaealing to the union vote, etcetera, etcetera...
she continues to flail.
The race card...using doppelgangers (i.e., Bill) to do the work...
BTW, McCain is nearly correct, AMericans understand the eloquent call for change and will heed to the promise such a call brings. We are willing to place our fates in the hands of someone who says we will work this out together than in those who would make mistake after mistake...
And then, in amoment of ..sheer desperation...she uses the gender card once again...speaking of the highest glass ceiling, etcetera...This is bad.She is very, very wealthy.
She is so not in tune with working class working women and men.
She has gone George W. on us, all we need is the accent, "if ya know what i meeen."

She'll be "ready on DAY ONE!"
It's starting to look like her day one is done.

Does NYAmiga
have nothing better to do than check up on posting histories of random strangers? Does she have nothing better to do than post snide swipes at strangers? And finally, does NY Amiga have a big box of Kleenex ready for the day coming, very soon, when Hillary Clinton drops out of the race?
She lost Wisconsin by 17 points and looks to be winning in Hawaii by 50 POINTS.
Going down with the ship, honey?

The Rant of the Anonymice
Long ago I asked aloud why won't Salon block the mindless, vitriolic rants of those who sign in as Anonymous. Every time I read their raving diatribes and the repartee of other posters who try to reason with the unreasonable, I began a post to register my complaint to the letters editor. "Block Anonymouse" was the headline.
Fortunately, composing the letters was just the therapy I needed and feeling better, I defaulted to "never mind" and deleted my low key rant against ranters before publishing.
This post began with the same intention as those previously aborted letters. But, once again thanks to ctl A/ctl X, I could change my mind without embarrassing myself. Still, I couldn't let go of the urge to weigh in on the subject so I paused to think about it more. And I did. And I had a break through moment.
Like everyone else here who engages in a little back talk with the Anonymice and others I realized I was simply reacting. No way would I persuade or engage a decent conversation with those dopes.
Now I have a simple plan: Let the Anonymice rant away. They need an avenue for their crazy-ass, bombastic harangue too but - I don't have to read them! I can totally ignore them. What a fabulous concept.
So, now before reading letters, which I do with equal interest as the articles, I read the name of the signer first and if it is the ubiquitous Anonymous I just move along without a read. I ignore them.
Like old pugilists boxing with their shadows it would be crazy to let the writings of these mice get to me. I don't know these people!
I feel so free now. Don't know why it took me so long. Guess it's because in the era in which I was raised I was required to eat all of the food on the plate in front of me "because children in Africa were starving." Some of the food was awful. I solved that problem by putting less on my plate. And it is a great application for my reading diet. Who reads everything anyway? Nobody.
There is a great byproduct of my refreshed thinking. Because I exercise my right to not read crap I am able to participate in the preservation of the inalienable right we all hold dear here in the US and desire in many parts of the world: Freedom of Speech. I'd like to see that stay around for a while.
