Nope, you are wrong and I am, of course, right.
Also, to stupid poster, it is not just that he is a racist, but that he has no plan. Got it, good. This is not a job for weenies.
You guys are 100% right and 0% wrong. 20 years of black rasict osmosis from Rev. Wright means that Black Hussein Osama, outside of his hollow, empty suit exterior; is a seething cauldron of rage. The day after, God forbid, he is inaugurated, you know he will bust out with his Black Panther fist in the air, a dashiki and a pick in his hair. Then its time for payback, it's Kill Whitey time. We must stop this disgusting radical rascist Afro-Leninist America-Hater before its too late.
Hillary '08!!
Tell your trash to the tourists. Obama picked up 5 superdelegates today, and Hillary - 4.
Polls show her besting him in Indiana AND NC...and she just picked up five superdelegates. FIVE. Go America Go, Go America Go, Go HILLARY GO!
I may not like some of you peeps, but I still think you deserve better than Obama. GO AMERICA GO, GO HILLARY GO!!!
Rev. Wright is really pissed off at Obama, and you can be damned sure that his speech at the NAACP awards was just the beginning of a long, drawn out ass whooping. See, Rev. Wright thought that since Obama dedicated his book to him, basing the book on a sermon he spoke, and because he is his mentor and all, that he would be part of the party at the White House. But, Obama blew him off totally, and then denounced and renounced him. And Rev. Wright don't take that shit.
The phone lines have been burning up between Obama camp and Rev. Wright, and it will be interesting to see how much money it takes to silence him. I don't think there is enough, but who knows.
What I do know is that this is old time politics and ass whoopings go way way back. If you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen, 'cause I'm doing just fine.
Oh, and I have more insider information than you could ever hope for. And Obama is toast. White or dark, he is toast. The only question is can you all apologize and back a real winner--HILLARY CLINTON. If not, you are to blame for the fiasco called McCain 2008.
That's the thing. The obamateur's insist that voters will transfer from Hillary to any Dem candidate. Not so. They don't trust Obama on the economy: poll after poll shows they trust Hlllary more than McCain, but McCain more than Obama.
And perhaps rightly so. first, at least you know where McCain stands - and he has a reputation deserved or not, as someone who will break from the GOP lockstep.
Meanwhile historically Obama has delivered none of the change he spews on about. And in this election his entire campaign has been Clinton bashing, posturing on an old vote on a war he had no skin in, and race-baiting.
In troubled economic times people couldn't be any LESS interested in dialogue on race, leaving aside whether they should or shouldn't be.
But with the ailing economy increasingly at the heart of the 2008 election, the white working-class vote that Obama won in Wisconsin -- and lost after that -- may be key. If Obama wants to wrap up the nomination before June, he'll have to find a way to win those voters back.
The difference is about six weeks, which is a lifetime in politics.
Since Wisconsin, the economy has worsened, we've had two consecutive months of big job losses, the housing foreclosure crisis has expanded to include more middle class voters who also are even less likely now to get credit than they were in February. And the cost of gasoline has skyrocketed.
The news we have experienced and seen in the six weeks since Wisconsin has only gotten worse. Now, more people see themselves being affected. And the economy has replaced the Iraq War as voters' number one concern (another big difference from Wisconsin).
People may "throw the bums out" during more stable times, but the majority of voters -- blue-collar working class -- aren't about to hand over the country now to a neophyte politician during such incredibly volatile times.
I said back in February that the economy was going to get worse, which would affect health care; that oil would go up and affect everything from transportation to heating costs. I said then that kitchen-table issues would determine the Democratic nominee and that voters would vote for the candidate they identified as best positioned to address these kitchen table issues.
Guess what? This is what has happened since Wisconsin. Barack Obama did not and does not have a strategy for this. His strategy was to cruise to victory on the Iraq War (and by stealth bombing Hillary Clinton as unelectable because of "secrecy", high negatives, trustworthiness, calculations, etc.) to provide just the question marks he needed to swing Clinton voters or those who probably would support her.
He is also losing because he is indecisive in the clutch (about Wright, most notably). This is not a good signal during economic hard times. That's also why he's losing.
Finally, "change" and "unity" are NOT leadership. To date, many voters have viewed them as interchangeable, in large part because they were not immediately affected by a worsening economy/housing foreclosure crisis. Now voters see the distinctions. They want leadership on these ISSUES and are flocking to Hillary Clinton.
Proud, the govenors of Kansas and Missouri are women. Oh just a couple of weeks ago the super from Minnesota endorsed her too and she was a women. You have to do better then that.
True and very foolish of them. At the time they undoubtably bought ever-foolishly the sucking up the press was doing to Obama specifically to ensure he was the nominee (to lose to McCain) as genuine popularity and didn't bother to look into his closet.
Dollar to a donut the repugs win the Kansas governorship back by running the same sort of commericals being run in Missippi and other places against the Dems who endorsed Obama as being "out of touch" with their constituents. Ugly stuff, but then the GOP's ugly stuff has a history of being very effective.
I'm wagering you can say good-bye to Seblius and a lot of others on their next run. Oh, well. That's what you get when you endorse an inexperienced, unknown candidate. Always pays to do your homework.
