The only thing it is really hurts are
comments like those by Obama “My supporters will not support Sen. Clinton but her supporters will support me”.

That is an open call to his supporters for a boycott should he not win the nomination.

And get this, I first heard comments like this before the Iowa Caucuses. When Bill Clinton’s comments were misquoted bye Michelle Obama and circulated by the MSM fueling AA outrage, then these comments really took on steam. And after the media timidly corrected the misquote, now in the AA community many don’t even know this and when presented with the evidence they simply don’t care about the truth.

So who started this? Obama has taken the Democratic Party hostage and someone needs to call him on it.

HUH?????

That’s all the media has been giving this guy. That was the reason Tina Fey kicked things off on SNL.

This is what has me so absolutely pissed with Obama and his fans. Did they think the “Days of Wine and Roses” was going to last forever?

You should look back on how SNL hammered Bill Clinton over the Lewinsky scandal and his philandering back in the 90s. Please Obamatons grow the fuck up!

But more important, what will happen when Obama finally reveals his true self to to them? What about their disappointment then?

You just cannot live life in a bubble. The sooner kids understand that, the better. And this is even more true when it comes to politics. Better they should focus on the privilege of democracy and the US Constitution and how great it is to be an American in spite of all the problems and imperfections and how it doesn’t get any better by not particiapting in it especially on a local and state level where you have more and immediate access.

But Joan Rivers says it better and simpler: GROW UP!!!!

Kathleen; ask yourself: why do they really want to abortthe democratic primary proceess? About 27M people have voted (a record by any measure) and each candiadte has about 50% of the popular vote. That is unbelievable. What ae the Obama surrogates so afraid of?

Let the people choose and then after June 1st; all the surrogates, superdelegates and yo name it will have enough time to make a sound decision based on what the whole country has said and what is the best candidate for the GE.

I hear a lot about Obama’s 50 state strategy vs. Clinton’s whatever. But is seems he doesn’t really want all 50 states to have a say….

The party will be fine. Nothing that is said now is new nor will be not said (albeit 1000 times worse) by McCain in the GE campaign.

The only thing it is really hurts are
comments like those by Obama “My supporters will not support Sen. Clinton but her supporters will support me”.

I suspect that a HELL of a lot of Obama supporters don’t really care that much about politics and will completely lose interest if he is not the nominee. It might happen anyway- younger voters don’t exactly have a reputation for knocking people down to get to the polls on election day. The political graveyard is filled with candidates who counted on a big turnout among young people.

I also worry about the Obama supporters who decide that if they can’t get what they want, they simply won’t play. They’ll take their ball and go home, as it were. And they’ll spend the next twenty years using Obama’s failure as an excuse to turn off on politics. We’ve heard this many times before- “I’m just not EXCITED about politics anymore, so I don’t care.” Such people often consider themselves more “ideologically pure” than the rest of us – like the idiots who proudly email Lou Dobbs to announce they are switching their party registration to “Independent.”

Obama is so not worth such devotion. He’s getting it though. Which is why Hillary will probably have to hand him the Vice Presidency, though Wesley Clark would be a vastly better, more responsible choice.

Pathetic isn’t it?! A free press was designed to protect the electorate not deceive it.

I’m hearing from some fine young people that they are voting for Hillary Clinton because they feel that Barack Obama is morally weak for doing drugs when he was their age.

And note, my dear fellow Democrats, the applause for the Afro-American candidate. Would Obama’s team reciprocate?

That should be on the banner at Hillary’s inauguration.

For one thing, it is Obama’s minions who are spreading the message that this will destroy the Democratic party. Why?

Because they want to shut down any serious scrutiny and debate about Obama’s qualifications to be president.

I am listening to MTP, and Daschle just trotted out the “this’ll hurt the party” meme because he was LOSING THE ARGUMENT at hand — and had run out of his poor arguments — on the inherent unfairness of caucuses versus absentee ballots (re Michigan, etc.).

It’s a “last recourse” argument. We shouldn’t fall for it. The party will be fine in no time.

When you worry about this — and write so many comments about it — I hope you’ll consider why people are delivering that message to you, Ask what their motives are. They’re trying to get you and others to shut down, and accept what they want. And there is much history to counter their FEARMONGERING about the party and our ability to beat McCain. The party usually comes together. It did so in almost all past election cycles.

For one thing, the vast majority of Democrats — very busy people who work, have children, and homes to care for — do not obsess about all this like we do on the blogs, and they’ll go along with the final decision … although I predict that many not stitched tightly to the party will cross over and vote for McCain in November, particularly if Obama is the nominee.

We have to vet our candidates, much as you did in your extremely careful assessments and studies of both Clinton and Obama before you voted last week in Ohio.

I’ve rarely met anyone as impressive as you in looking at every issue, and attending so many campaign rallies.

There is NOTHING written here at NoQuarter that isn’t known widely by the Republicans and conservative bloggers. And they probably know a lot more than we, and will use all of it if he is the nominee. We need to inform people now, before it is too late. People will get it, sooner or later. Preferably sooner.
