  • Easy solution.

    Nominate Hillary, Obama VP, win in a landslide.

  • 1. Thanks, I have a big glass right here.. Uh-OH---It's got OBAMA stencilled on it!! No, I will stay in the reality-based part of the Democratic Party, thank you, not the Obama cultists.

    2. I have a degree in Engineering and am comfortable with tensor calculus. I can count in 16 different number bases, including hexadecimal, and they all say the same thing: Obam FAILED TO WIN the number of delegates he needed to put him over the top.


    3. I agree. That is why I will not support Obama. Vapid slogans and empty rhetoric are not what I am looking for.


    4. Dems have been waiting breathlessly in every state to have a chance to cast their vote in support of their candidate. Why do you want to take that away from them?


    5. Obama is the one driving a wedge through the Democratic Party and lying to us. He is busy now installing HIS advisers at the DNC, trying to make sure all contributions and message flow though HIS organization, and trying to pretend HE is the nominee!

    He has alienated fully half the Democratic Party by pissing off every Hillary supporter, and the polls show his support is deep, but very narrow. I don't think he can beat even McCain in November.

  • To Michael A.:

    I blame the Obama Campaign for foolishly not realizing that Hillary Clinton would make the better President, and just REFUSING to stop campaigning in spite of all appeals to reason! Selfish, selfish, selfish!!


    As many have already deduced, Michael, this extended primary battle has been EXCELLENT news for the Democratic Party.

    It has resulted in record turnouts, record shifts to Democratic from GOP and Independent, record monies contributed to Dem causes, record participation not just in Primaries and caucuses, but in special elections and in issue-identification and grassroots building, strengthening, and extending.

    The only dismay is among Obama supporters, who want to stop the voting while their candidate is temporarily ahead.

    When the eventual nominee is decided, SHE will know what to do to keep Dem momentum going strong.

  • And THAT is how we show Americans the kind of Government the Democratic Party stands for, and what they can expect if they elect Democrats.

    We will not always be able to predict what people will do when they get elected into office, but we know what to do to hold people accountable.

  • I think you're the one wiuth the Palmore-Sidoti problem, not Hillary.

    I've not read a more smug, self-righteous, twisted argument in this pages.

    You posit 6 "radcial markers" above as absolute "proof" that there can be no question that the Clinton campaign "jumped the shark" and is "giving effect", whatever that means, and encoueraging the racial prejudices of certain whites?

    Your "racial marker" number 2 is DRUDGE?? As a source?? ANd then you compound that by saying, well, a staffer says the Clinton campiagnh is said to "play along" with Drudge.

    I couldn't read any further.

    This post is just another example of what the Obama campaign excels at; what I've come to recognize as Axelrod's style: Take an event, find an angle, S-T-R-E-T-C-H it to fit a meme, and send it out there for the gullible to make i t into a "well-known fact".

    The Obama campaign is irresponsible. It is irresponsible now verging on the unconscionable as the pressure ratchets up, and America is beginning to see just how manipulative and pandering his campaign can get.

    From the Iraq Vote that never happened because Obama wasn't even a Senator yet to the "Hillary is Disrespectiung Martin Luther King" outright made-up lie to the Gas Tax Economists' Letter yesterday, they are not even trying to hide the fact that they are using every weapon within reach.

    Including Race.

    And, unfortunately, that has now become the Obama DNA.

    Hoodwink and bamboozle, anyone?

  • WOw, Bamabots on rampage.

    Dreier posts a bit saying he's getting alleged eMails from Blumenthal with summaries of what the right and the press are saying about Obama, and his panties tie up in a knot.

    Why don't you just tell BLumenthal you want off the list?

    I know what it is: Bamabots NEVER want to hear ill spoken of " The Precious".

    Never. Why, it's faith-shakin' I tell yez.

  • What about Obama on Russert at almost the same time?

    The hipocrisy is stultifying.

  • Iran wishes to restate to the UN the fact that it does not have any intention of launching a strike against Israel, and that's a BAD thing??

    Obama-land is cuckoo-land.

  • Obama has been bleeding supporters badly. He needs a big win to stop the bleeding and try to regain the momentum he;s lost since Ohio and PA. All he has to show for his last month is Wright, Ayers, and a HUGE loss in PA after spending rivers of cash.

    You Obamabots need to get a grip: If Hillary comes close in NC after beating him in Indiana, she will win the nomination by making the argument of electability and mometum to the superdelegates.

    You better be glad your candidate knows he's in a life-or-death fight; if he listened to you chumps and coasted, he'd be dead in a week.
