		<description>Hillary has already lost the primary.  Seriously, your posts at myDD are bad enough, but this is simply laughable.

She can&#039;t win unless she steals it (though, given that she&#039;s Bush-lite, that may be an option).</description>

		<description>This is the first &quot;empty suit&quot; piece I&#039;ve found in the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/09/us/politics/09obama.html?pagewanted=1&amp;_r=1&amp;hp&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;New York Times&lt;/a&gt;.

Two excerpts (they do say some nice things but I&#039;ve an axe to grind, besides I watched that gombeen shit Bill Maher last night)


&lt;blockquote&gt;But frustrated by his lack of influence and what he called the “glacial pace,” he soon opted to exploit his star power. He was running for president even as he was still getting lost in the Capitol’s corridors.&lt;/blockquote&gt; 


&lt;blockquote&gt;Mr. Obama took few bold stands and diverted little from the liberal orthodoxy he had embraced in the Illinois Senate. His voting record in his first year in Washington, according to the annual rankings by National Journal, was more liberal than 82.5 percent of the Senate (compared with, for example, Mrs. Clinton’s 79.8 percent that year).&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;To others, though, the mismatch between Mr. Obama’s outside profile and his inside accomplishments wore thin.&lt;/blockquote&gt; 


&lt;blockquote&gt;“He folded like a cheap suit,” said Senator Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina, a close ally of Mr. McCain. “What it showed me is you are not an agent of change. Because to really change things in this place you have to get beat up now and then.” &lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>I am a new lurker. Love Larry Johnson and am so disappointed with Air America, which I have also stopped listening to. I tried again today when I drove to work. Its like watching a soap opera. I haven&#039;t listened for weeks and yet today Stephanie Miller and Randi Rhodes are still in mid-sentence trashing Hillary. I don&#039;t get it. Maybe the progressives aren&#039;t really Democrats. The Nation Magazine has gone bonkers, too.
Its the curse of the Obamatrons.
Go Hillary!!!!!!</description>

		<description>&quot;Scorched Earth Campaign&quot; is the talking point making the rounds.

But don&#039;t forget, Clinton did have an ad asking who you&#039;d want to take the call at 3 am, which is the meanest, most vicious, hurtful, heinous, monstrous, despicable, unprescedented thing ever in political history. 

Vote Obama: Whining is Presidential
Worship Him as a God or He&#039;ll Sit in His Room and Cry For a Month</description>

		<description>Thanks. I agree and think that they are just jealous that they couldn&#039;t accomplish what Bill Clinton did so they are fighting against Hillary.

I can almost hear Roger Daltrey singing: We won&#039;t get bamboozled again.</description>

		<description>I stopped watching MSNBC almost entirely.  The disappointments have been too many all at once.  But perhaps this is the only way to put the media in the wash cycle and get some of these stains (Mika, Olberman, Matthews, Russert, Scarborough (gasp), et. al) out.

Hannity and O&#039;Reilly (on the Republican side) may still be around, but after Bush, they are less relevant every day.  Besides that, people are aware of what they are.

The Democrats enjoyed more credibility while fighting Bush.  But now, many of them are being exposed for being not much different than the very Republicans they fought so hard against.

Ironic at best.  But I am a positive thinker.  I believe we needed this fight within the Democratic party to shake the rotten apples out of the tree.

I have given up all of my old favorite radio shows.  I didn&#039;t mind that they chose to support Obama.  What got me (and I here this from other voices on the net) was the unabashed attacks on Clinton.  The unfairness coming from the people whom I thought to be so fair just months ago.

(Naming names: Randi Rhodes, Big Eddy, Stephanie Miller ... I stopped listening to Air America altogether.)

Today I am happy to find the Democrats I thought we were here and at Taylor Marsh and Corrente to name a few. 

For a while there, I thought I was living in an episode of the Twilight Zone and I was the only one left not hypnotized by The One Who&#039;s Middle Name Should Not Be Mentioned.

I should say on behalf of my teenage son, he wasn&#039;t fooled.  He has been having regular arguments with a teacher who is an Obama supporter and routinely tells the class lies about the campaign.  I&#039;m so proud of him.</description>

		<description>Amen to this amazing article! BO is all BS. His backers from the Democratic Party are losers who have an axe to grind against Bill (&amp; Hill), because the former Arkansas governor did what so many Democratic politicians couldn&#039;t do since FDR - get elected president and get re-elected, plus leave the Oval Office with stratospheric approval ratings, to boot! I used to read Huffingtonpost and Buzzflash - but I have stopped since they showed themselves to be nothing more than undeclared official campaign sites for BO. But the American will not be bamBOozled.</description>

		<description>Is it just me, or is there anyone in the media who&#039;s more blatantly shilling for Barack Obama than Mika Brzezinski of the MSNBC Morning Joe show? Yes, Tweety has demonstrated over and over that he despises Hillary Clinton with a passion. So at least we all know where he&#039;s coming from. The ultra-partisan hack Joe Scarborough has an all consuming pathological hatred for Bill Clinton. So his motivations are also transparent. And it&#039;s obvious that Keith Olbermann is nothing more than a thinly veiled extension of the Obama campaign. But it is &quot;The Obama Girl&quot; Mika Brzezinski who more than any of the others just completely turns my stomach. She hypocritically portrays herself as neutral but in comment after comment she absolutely oozes pro-Obama bias from every pore. How can such an obvious hypocrite be portrayed as a journalist instead of an openly partisan spokesperson? 

It&#039;s pretty damn sad that the most objective voice on MSNBC is Pat Buchanan.</description>

		<description>I am like totally impressed. David Brooks is actually playing fair and acting like an intelligent pundit for a change. He does that every now and then. So glad he is off his tingle moments with Obama. I guess Hillary&#039;s wins woke a few folks up.</description>
