Then tell her to STFU.
Just like Bill was told to tell Hillary not all that long ago.
Nothing really changes does it?

These so called Obama “attacks”, the “dirty campaigning” they keep whining about, what strikes me as really obvious is that these aren’t attacks at all. They’re figments of Obama’s imagination.

That photo in native dress wasn’t an attack, it was something to be proud of, but he fumbled it into an attack.

Now debunked is an accusation from DailyObama about Hillary darking one of his photos to make him appear blacker. That’s not an attack, everybody already knows he’s a black guy. Talk about racist,DailyObama is implying that Obama must always be portrayed at his lightest possible so people don’t get the wrong idea. The wrong idea? What the hell does that mean?

And NAFTA and Canada? On the grand scale of political scandals, this doesn’t even rate. Who cares if he reached out to Canada? The problem was his choice of words. The problem is he fumbled the ball when he got caught. He created this scandal by trying to lie and cover up which only encourages the press because they think you’re hiding something. They started tripping over themselves to find the memo, the leaker, hell even parliment was arguing about it.

Compare that to hillary’s response:.”.the Clinton campaign said that they give the Canadian government “blanket immunity” to reveal who supposedly called them.”

Case closed. She took the wind out of their sails. To this day we don’t have named person or a memo. That’s how you handle an attack. By taking control and defining the debate.

[...] There’s Got To Be a Morning After (by dcmediagirl at No Quarter) At least I heard one bit of sanity [Tuesday] night on CNN, provided as usual by Paul Begala, who had the temerity to point out that he’s seen negative campaigns, and this Clinton-Obama matchup, when measured by the gold standard that is the Republican South Carolina primary in 2000 (and the smears directed against Max Cleland and John Kerry), this is a powderpuff fight.

Have any of them asked how many anti-war voters each received? Actually are there any questions being asked re war, economy, south america?
It is a given that “issues” are the sole property of the republicans, collective identity is the property of the democrats.

Mississippi is a primary state. 33 delegates
According to the data I found online, Mississippi has 0% hispanic voters, 34% black, and any homebuyer can register at the closing.
Wyoming is a caucus state 12 delegates. Wyoming’s gov is a dem, he has not endorsed anyone.
The only caucuses left are Wyoming, Guam and Puerto Rico.

there was yes a consistant effort to distroy the [rubes] from arkansas .i still believe that the goverment shut down during the clinton presedentcy was a plot to distroy bill clinton. they knew he like women, so they [i believe] payed monica lewinsky …[a modern matah hari] to do her thing with bill to disrtoy him.

monica lived 20 ft or so from bob dole at the watergate motel.i believe they might have payed her a million dolars to take down the presedient.

Dean’s office said that he would be issuing a statement? I had not heard that before, I just assumed he had no intention of standing up for Hill. Way to lie to the voters Dean.

Indy, contact Senator Bayh’s campaign office, or his PAC (I am not sure what it is called, but I am sure you can google it). He is a HUGE Clinton supporter. I am sure they can put you in touch.

On my list of sons-of-bitches whose knees I’d like to break with a Louisville Slugger, I included “Whiz Kid” Robert S. McNamara decades ago.

Unfortunately Westmoreland shuffled off and cheated me of the pleasure.

I’ll sign !! Can’t stand her attitude of false objectivity. And she talks much more than what she really knows.
I find hard to believe she was Al Gore’s campaign manager… (mis-manager?)

Hi,

Sorry had to take off for awhile. Let me know if you still want to get a petition going. My skills are very limited but willing to do whatever it takes.

Did anybody notice that last nights Obama victory speech (NOT!) was held in San Antonio, one of the Texas cities he lost!

What a bad idea that was…

dcmediagirl — This was an outstanding and “spot-on” posting, and the “tone” was entirely appropriate, under the circumstances. Thank you!!!

CogDis:
Ahh yes, you get it. Howard Dean couldn’t buy this PR for millions of bucks. Every Dem debate is a ratings hit. Election night coverage has been a boon for the cable networks (not Fox though). Voter turnout is high. So what the hell is the problem? So Dems get free advertising through June. What in the world is the downside to that?

This shows just how naive the bipartisan schtick really is. The Obama campaign reached out to confide in a conservative government and - SURPRISE - they ratted him out! I thought Obama’s charm was supposed to stop this kind of thing.

Something that these petulant party leaders and clueless pundits seem to be missing is this: the longer this primary goes on, the longer the democrats get out their message to every state in this country. The better they reach every single person who is going to vote in November. That never happens when primaries are sewn up in the beginning. When that happens, most states - except the big ones - never see the nominees at all, they never get to hear them speak, they never get to see them ASK for their votes, they never find out exactly where they stand on the issues. I can’t imagine anything better for democrats than for this to continue through all the states left. This is far better than someone winning now and fighting with McCain for the next 8 months.

So for all those pundits and party leaders wailing and gnashing their teeth - STFU. You are wrong, wrong, wrong. Doing it your way means defeat in November.
