TPM may be supporting Obama (I'm not sure that is the case), but their content is solid. Watch the video before you criticize their math. The bottom line is that Hillary can't claim the popular vote without disenfranchising the caucus states, and including BOTH Michigan AND Florida votes. I have conceded Florida, but you can't give Obama zero Michigan votes, and counting popular votes in caucus states is not fair. Did you watch the video there, or are you just talking out of your ass?

Hillary got just as many independents and Republicans as Obama did in Ohio, and currently she does better than Obama against McCain according to Gallup. This is wrong.

If I likewise started reading off a list of BO's campaign FUs, we'd be here all night. Of course people are going to make mistakes. The smart money, the ethical money, is on the candidate who makes the least amount of mistakes, and makes the most sense. And that is Senator Hillary Clinton, by a country mile.

He didn't pardon them, he gave commuted the sentences. Funny, the Prosecuting attorneys, and Congress in it's condemnation describes it as a pardon. Anyway, that's not the point - and the fact that rather than address the comparison, you focus there is very telling.

He commuted their sentences after they had served much of their sentences and expressed remorse for what they had done. Since you don't understand this after many others have explained it before, you are either terminally stupid or, more likely, intentionally lying. But lying only works when you tell them to people who don't already know better. President Clinton did not pardon the two terrorists.

Voting for Obama guarantees a McCain victory. If that bothers you so much, then join us in voting for Hillary. She at least carries Massachusetts. Don't I recall Unca Ted (from Massachusetts) campaigning for BOBO in Massachusetts (and PA) and that not doing much for BOBO? And now, BOBO polls worse than "old" John? hahahahaha That is just Karma!

But I will lay it out for you. McCain is not a good choice for president. But he has not spent 20 years listening to a "minister" who hates America. McCain is NOT good friends with a terrorist who regrets he has not killed enough Americans. Obama is both of those. You don’t understand logic, period. But I will lay it out for you.

"5th Columnist"... I presume that's a reference to Ayers?
