On MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Clinton spokesman Howard Wolfson said Obama is taking premature “victory laps,” and Clinton has come back every time pundits write her off. Said she will actively campaign in Puerto Rico, Montana and South Dakota. – The Page

CLINTON SOLID IN KENTUCKY; OREGON IS OBAMA’S IN TIGHT RACE
5/19/2008
Two states. Two Democratic Primaries on the same night. And the differences in the contests are like night and day, according to a Suffolk University poll.In Kentucky, Hillary Clinton (51 percent) led Barack Obama (25 percent) by 26 points, followed by John Edwards (6 percent) and “uncommitted” (5 percent), while 11 percent were undecided.
In Oregon, Obama (45 percent) led Clinton (41 percent) by 4 points, with 8 percent undecided and 6 percent refusing a response.
DESCRIPTION: Hillary answered questions from undecided voters on Oregon issues in a town hall hosted by KGW in Portland. By the end of the night after a standing ovation, Hillary won over the crowd in the room and thousands watching on TV. Clinton’s hourlong town hall did net her some undecided voters in Portland. …. THE REST OF THE DESCRIPTION IS BELOW THE FOLD.
REST OF DESCRIPTION OF VIDEO ABOVE:
Jennifer Hildrich, 50, of Portland said she was torn between “the outsider talking about change and a new day” and “the savvy political insight of someone who will get something done.”
Hildrich said Clinton impressed her with her detailed plans for addressing major issues. Then Clinton closed the deal for Hildrich when she implored voters to consider who would be the most effective president on day one.
Judee Jacoby, 64, of Damascus said she too showed up at the town hall meeting on the fence over whether to back Obama or Clinton.
By meeting’s end, she was firmly in Clinton’s camp.
“I like her views on health care and on education,” she said. “I just feel she is very personable and warm, someone an average American like me can relate to.”
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::
DESCRIPTION: Hillary traveled throughout Oregon on May 16 and kicked off the day with a roundtable discussion on economic issues with the Mehlbrech family in Junction City. “A lifetime experience…this is a great thing for a small town” said Marv Mehlbrech
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::
DESCRIPTION: Hillary calls out the wussy-one on his ducking out on debates in an interview with KGW Channel 8 in Portland Oregon.

Hey all!!
I have not contributed to a campaign since 2004.
At the beginning of the primary I was an Edwards supporter ( I don’t know how I feel about that now) but I did not even contribute to his campaign. Well,
I just went to http://www.hillaryclinton.com and signed the petition to count the MI and FL votes and contributed a ten spot and I feel fine
Peace
Trinity thank you! Your help is very much appreciated!
Welcome …. She’s the best for America.
thank you Trinity!!!!
Thank you!
Thank you!A strong supporter of a great best candidate,Sen.Hillay Clinton
How can anyone still be “on the fence” between these two candidates? That kind of response really annoys me personally. I want to shout, dude, are you living in a fucking cave????? Are you not paying attention to the world around you? Who still buys Obama’s bullshit of a new day? His empty resume and rhetoric? Gah.
Doesn’t undecided sound more like “i’m not interested in saying?”
EXCELLENT SUSAN….Thankyou…
ALL THE WAY TO DENVER…..BILL CLINTON FOR FIRST DUDE…..I love to say that…scuse’
Obama only goes to Oregon to read off of a teleprompter and have a massive crowd act like he is a rock star. Hillary stands in front of the people and answers hard questions. Come on Oregon! Who do you think will make a better President?
Hillary!!!
Oregon voters were not the only ones at Waterfront Park. On many weekends it is so crowded and congested that you can’t walk comfortably. It is a great place to spend a sunny day and often get lots of freebies….like concerts and sidewalk artist etc. Kayakers and bicyclist and walkers are always coming and going. A friend told me lots of Seattle people were there last weekend..so Oregon is not that enthused about Obama……don’t read the spin that it was all for him,….it wasn’t.
Thanks for that report. A big rally loaded with people from other states is nothing compared to the HUGE “rally” of the vote in Kentucky! That rally matters!
Not only were a lot of out-of-staters there at the request of the Obama campaign, but I would say that the number the Obama campaign gave (75,000) was unrealistic. If you have ever been to Tom McCall’s Waterfront Park, it is about a half block wide by 2 blocks. No way can 75,000 fit onto it. He is trying to emulate JFK and Bill Clinton who both drew wild crowds in the Pioneer Square area (before the Waterfront Park was a reality). To see a map of the area, go to http://www.savvyonthego.com/detail.php?p=id=881&hist=3
The picture on USA Today shows the Riverplace Hotel in the background (with the chimneys) and it is ‘A’ on the map. Since there is no Hawthorne Bridge in the picture, one has to assume that Obama is speaking on the south side of the Hawthorne Bridge toward the Riverplace. That is 2 blocks about 1/2 block wide – see map. There is no way 75,000 people can cram in there.
I responded to HRC campaign askin for suggestions…I said keep doin the wonky wonk….she beats him on that every time….She is good…
Just got back from Portland. Did a lot of Hillary viz. No telling what they’ll do in that state.
This doesn’t even reach the level of “Duck Soup.”
How sad.
Right ON! I’m glad you posted that about the Oregon town hall.
Doesn’t Hillary always take the LION’s share of those that “won’t SAY” and those that are “undecided”?
I know my MOM’s age group are verrrry private about their vote. She has told me time and time again that she would NEVER tell a pollster who she’s voting for. She thinks it’s a private thing.
Does anybody else see a self-sabotage tendency in Obambi? I think he likes running more than governing, and when it looks like he may have to do the latter, the sloppy mistakes start to come out. Like the 57 states thing.
Early on when I was leaning Obama I thought — and even Josh Marshall said this at the time — it doesn’t look like Obama really wants this. He doesn’t want to compete for it, he wants it to be handed to him. I think Michelle and Obama’s supporters want this more for him than he wants it.
His quitting West Virginia and Kentucky, and not even campaigning that hard for Oregon votes (he didn’t try hard, he told one undecided in Oregon to read his two books when asked “how do we know we can trust you”? He said little, OK he said nothing, that was Oregon-specific in any of his ads) just tells me he’s quitting.
Like the student who fears he may be bad at math, doesn’t study for the test, then when he receives a poor grade says well I didn’t study.
It also tells me there is a struggle for control of his soul.
Barry has a serious conflict with his INNER CRACKER…anything new ?
He has a soul?
I noticed a few weeks back that his heart didn’t seem to be in it. I felt as though if he had his way, he would quit. Not sure if I’m right, but sometimes I wonder if even he is being pushed from behind. He definitely doesn’t come off as a leader IMO.
I agree 100%. He is out of steam and looks demoralized.
To be demoralized implies Morals….I think we are all better off if we see him for what he is….DEFLATED…might be more accurate…
I believe he is apolitical…and amoral…hence his campaign…
to demoralize is to corrupt the morals of . random house dict.
** EVEN IN THE FACE OF PURE AND UTTER EVIL…THOSE WITH A MORAL FOUNDATION….TEND TO GROW STRONGER NOT WEAKER **
It is difficult to change the language and our use of it with someone like OBAMA…But the truth is …this is no ordinary candidate in our system…and I will ( for myself ) be as careful as possible in the usage of lingo where OBAMA is concerned….HE HAS CHANGED THE EQUATION….I have been using a dictionary a lot over the last few months….as well as my old logic text book….
He KNOWS Clinton should be the nominee.
You know that “how can I trust you?” question from the other day. It struck me this morning that he has had that very same question in the past, publicly at an event. AND he answered exactly the same way (in NLP speak). Instead of talking about his experience or qualifications, he does an NLP technique where he draws the person in and creates a bond with them.
I suddenly remembered he had answered this almost identically in the past, it’s a formulaic answer (not from the heart). He draws the questioner in with words like “we” and “let’s”, and asks them to “help me” stay honest in this “dishonest profession”, etc. He’s totally doing this by the book. His NLP Tony Robbins training is paying off.
“he does an NLP technique where he draws the person in and creates a bond with them.”
This whole campaign has been a textbook of NLP. Even some of the newer trolls showing up this weekend were on here using that technique. I’m immune to it. I once went to an EST event at a HUGE stadium. Before the end of the evening, I had managed to get 2 EST kooks in a major knockdown drag-out fight as they tried to cnvert me.
I LIVE FOR THIS!!!!
I basically don’t care how this winds up over the next few weeks and on to Denver. My resolve is stronger than it’s ever been in my life. If Hillary is not the nominee, I will not vote for Obama.
He will have to:
WIN WITHOUT ME!!
I’ve been to both EST (or as it’s now called “The Landmark Forum”) AND a Tony Robbins seminar where he taught NLP!
I agree. I think he feels way over his head. They said it would be easy! and it’s not .Plus up till now in his life everything has been given him just when he says he wants it….But Hill says no, seriously NO, and he doesn’t have experience with that….makes Mr. 57 states even extra confused.
Hey it’s a meme – he just doesn’t want it. His heart ain’t in it. Others want it for him more than he wants it for himself.
Let’s revive that video of him saying he needs more experience before he runs. “If I were to run, I’d basically have to start NOW.”
Sort of like Chauncey Gardener (”Being There”).
Yes. A lot of people are afraid to get verbally attacked if they admit they will vote for Hillary. It’s like being in the closet. Can’t blame them.
Just imagine Barry in the GE and how many people would vote against him but be afraid to admit it beforehand. Not that he will ever see the GE.
Apparently ARG was not off. If she pulls this close to him in the end, it will absolutely signal that this tanking is not about racism, not about not campaigning in the states, and all about…Obama.
I rather like that irony.
GO OREGON!
Well, alright Judee Jacoby!!!!!!!!!! You will be a wonderful advocate for Hillary. Thanks for the great update, Susan.
The Clinton campaign has conceded Oregon to Obama. This proves they lost the state
They have not conceded it. They done what any candidate would do: lower expectations. They could still win. Your proof is moot.
I havent’ seen it, why do you draw this conclusion?
Grasping-at-straws.com?
Hillary is actively campaigning in Oregon. She is not hiding in Iowa whining and blaming the voters for losing like Obama is doing in Kentucky.
Same guy who two weeks ago said the voters have had plenty of opportunity to get to know him and his positions on issues (so no more debates needed) now says the voters just don’t know him well enough. He says when he gets out and gets to know voters he does better, yet he refuses to debate, refuses townhall meetings and refuses questions from the press. He only appears in big forums where the audience is remote.
Even when she knows she is losing, she still goes.
Unlike Obama, who sends his wife in for him.
MemyselfandIshelle has the balls Barry only WISHES he had!
Great post Susan. Can you update with the Wolfson video and the Politco “Obama: No victory declaration Tuesday” information?
Looks like things are shifting.
Go, Oregon.
A bit OT, but how many of the pro dean blogs from 2004 now endorse Obama?
A Deaniac Blog:
the DNC open thread has been anti Hillary for years (I had been going there daily since 2003 until recently)
There were about 30 regulars that posted….. the LIONS share of them were WES CLark lovers as well as DEANiacs…..(I know this as I used to run local polls and on average the same 30 IPs would participate)
When Wes went to Hillary, not many followed at first.
Most split between Richardson and Edwards with some die hard Biden supporters too. MOST of those were also elites btw, and eventually turned to Obama. THATS when I left for good.
Very few of us (cynNY, connie, gregg & dpd) followed Wes over to Hillary.
It was and still is a sore spot for me. I really thought I had developed some real friendships over there. Now I know the real truth. Elitism won the day for them. Their pompous, pious, sanctimonious (blech) personalities finally bled through.
It’s as if any disagreement is taken as a personal insult, a threat, the mark of the infantile narcissist.
When I see people of that sort, I KNOW they’re going to behave in that manner, and it doesn’t surprise me at all, any betrayal.
In fact, its the individual who exhibits real dignity that surprises, now.
Howard Wolfson said that Obama probably win Oregon, and they are going to have their speech in Kentucky. That proves that Clinton lost OR
It does not prove anything. Hillary can still win Oregon plus she wants to keep the margin close if she does lose. Look up “lowering expectations.” Wolfson is just doing his job lowering expectations.
Yeah … its a proven Obambi tactic ….
The Kentucky vote will be a humiliation of him and his campaign. She will stand there and make sure the message is sent. The following day he will roll out one more tired Democratic MAN to tell her to knock off the noise and get back in the kitchen … just in time for the last couple of states.
They don’t learn well there in Obamasamatraumaville, do they?
Oh Gore, Gore, baby……*whistle*
You’re so right. Another Washington Insider will tell people how Obama is for real change.
It’s getting to be funny.
I think Obama’s running out of loosers to endorse him on National tv.
maybe he can get Rezko to do a little endorsement… (unless his house arrest collar interferes with the tv equipment).
how many blacks in Oregon?
how many colleges & universities?
what is the average income?
That will tell me who will win.
“That proves that Clinton lost OR”
Dave why don’t we let the voters decide it.
No one has won or lost yet.
He was expected to win Oregon handily. RCP is still listing him as double digits ahead. A week ago he was up by 20 points.
So he probably will win. However, nobody expected it to tighten this way.
He’s in trouble.
True but look at the lack of data. There are only two new polls. If you just use the two new polls its a 5 point spread.
We’ll see what happens.
All eyes are on Kentucky. Hillary will crush him and any spin about Oregon won’t amount to a hill of beans. And she could still win Oregon.
I don’t know, with Obama, everything is so corrupt, I trust nothing.
So, even if Wolson concedes, I think the vote totals HAVE to be rigged, given Axelrod’s track record.
And I proceed as such, despite the bama twist, sort of like the Flintstones twist, bam- bam!, like Barney Rubble, or Bam Bam Rubble, or Roger Stone! or some other wannabe be operative DIP, fragile hard shell chocolate on white vanilla soft serve ice cream, from the Dairy Queen.
Or the Fairy Queen.
And is it true he actually won his editor position by procedural moves, as opposed to talent?
LOLOLOLOLOLOL
WHAT a loser, hasn’t got the intellectual chops, huh?
Gee, what a surprise.
wannabe bee, sorry, like a yellow bumble bee, always buzzing around, puking up honey…
And if Oregon is really this tight, pay attention…
Think I’ll make some rice and beans, fast food Mexican, like they make in those hole in the wall joints…
What a load of lard…
In grade school, we had this highly dysfunctional boy named Mark, used to be bounced around from school to school, anyway, his way of making friends was to come up behind the obese girl, and yell “lard ass” .
Anyway, the obese girl later moved to Arizona, where last I heard, she became President of her class.
Your democratic op, at work.
Are they proud?
You betcha, they think they’re brutal.
And Obama having his in Iowa, what does that say aside from the fact Iowa isn’t even in the race tomorrow night?
Someone forget to tell him it isn’t one of the redo States?
Hey, Do u guys have any pics of the actual Obama crowd out there in OR? I just read that there was 75,000 that showed up. Is that for real? Or, is that just how many seats were avail?
Also, I am getting really tired of every article saying that Hillary is behind in pledged delegates. Not one word about her being ahead in popular vote and more importantly, ahead in the states that matter come November. That includes all of the states that there was rampant cheating by the Obamanots.
I hope and pray that she comes in ahead in all of the remaining states and PR.
She has earned the right to be here, dammit. And, it is certainly not because the media is her Prince Charming. That will be the day! It is because she has the stuff that real Presidents are made of.
Yes its for real, its amazing how obama fans like to get bussed around to all his concerts. They are kinda like deadheads.
Do you have a copy of his playlist?
Was the encore “Sweet South Caroline?” or “Sweet North Caroline?”
How many of his followers understand that they both were RED in 2000 and 2004 and will go RED in 2008 as well? So those victories don’t mean a damn thing in November ….
Kids ….
Can’t teach ‘em anything and ya’ can’t shoot ‘em legally either.
I think Senator Clinton’s continued support and upsurge in the polls is stunning when you consider the “get out of the race, girl” messages and attitudes propogated by the MSM and political operative types early on. Day by day, week by week, month by month, she’s proven the “experts” wrong.
This is not a race for dog catcher but for the Presidency of the United States. Whoever told the Obama folks that BO deserved to be crowned? Hillary has proven herself a long-distance runner. And that’s not just politics. She’s chosen it as a lifestyle and she’s proving it again on the campaign trail.
Why are the Superdelgates doing a lockstep behind Obama? Follow the money. But we as American voters have more power than we think and we’ve been exerting that power in recent races. There will be no crowning moment for BO if the Oregon race is razor thin or an upset and Kentucky turns into another incredible rout.
See you in Denver!
He can’t even have a coronation with a big win in Oregon. It’s the electoral map that elects a president.
Just got an email from our State’s Democratic Chair (Washington State) and his endorsement of Obama. This guy is a Super Delegate.
His email was barf-worthy. He talks about his reasons for choosing Obama: “I read his books, heard his speeches, and talked to people that found him inspiring.” Not one word about Obama’s experience for the job. Ironically, when he tosses the bone to Hillary in the letter, he talks about her “decades of public service” and experience, etc.
He also states that “the voters have spoken” so it’s time to move on and focus on November.
Yes.. I wrote to him. I kept it civil, but let him know that NO the voters have NOT spoken. Asked him why he and others are in such a hurry to shove Obama in, what are they afraid of? I reminded him of the REAL role of Supers, and that Hillary is the first candidate that has been shoved out of the race early, when she has so much more than any other candidate that took it to the floor.
I invoked McGovern, Dukakis, Mondale, and Kerry. I told him that the backless cometh in the form of a crushing loss in November if he and the DNC succeed in shoving Obama down our throats. Oh.. and I wished him luck with that coronation thing tomorrow.
I hope the media truly crushes Obama over this ridiculous coronation.
Don’t hold your breath on the media reporting Hillary’s stunning victory in KY as the actual news story it is a stunning victory in KY. Maybe on Fox they will. MSNBO and BNN, forget about them. But the country is wise to the bias. Lou Dobbs although on BNN screams and hollers at every opportunity about the bias.
On election night I will wait for Hillary’s huge well-deserved victory celebration on CSPAN. I might scroll through the “news” networks with the mute button at the ready.
I advise activists to ignore the spin and tune it out if it bothers them.
Always mention money before attempting to reason. It gets their attention.
Attach some monopoly money (pretend money for pretend representation) to the letter.
The DNC, media and Obama and whoever gave big money to Obama have treated Hillary Clinton with amazing disrespect.
Women have had it. And, their fathers, husbands, and sons agree.
Let us to do whatever we can to help her to get more vote today.
Every vote is important right now!
Put our anger into Action! Action! Action!
Please Call! Call! Call! http://www.hillaryclinton.com/
Oh, what if it turns out the money they gave is monopoly money?
Uh oh…
Just read that quote from Axelrove on Morning Cup o’ Joe. Now he’s peddling furiously.. the new meme is that suddenly Obama can magically do well in swing states. He also said that how a candidate does in a primary state can change in the GE.
Well.. yes, you’re absolutely right, Axelrove. In the case of Obama’s long-lost brothers: McGovern, Mondale, Dukakis, and Kerry, they actually do WORSE in the GE than they did in those same states during the primary. So yes, technically he’s right. It can change. Unfortunately for the addicted-to-losing DNC, the change is for the worse. Is that what all this hopey-changey stuff is all about?
Obama doesn’t like debates because he obviously never does his homework! He can’t speak in generalities and feel good rhetoric. It shows him for the empty suit he really is. He’s only as good as the teleprompter feed which has been lifted from others. Hillary has speaks to specifics and knows how to take action! Obama reads prepared speeches written by others. He won’t debate because he’s awful at it! No wonder he never did courtroom law.
Post comments in the Oregon online newspapers, craigslist and blogs. It’s a real media blackout generally in Oregon and in addition people are waffling. That rally swayed people and Clinton’s online townhall swayed people. There are people blowing in the breeze in Oregon and beyond the GOTV online for Clinton, one can post comments in the above.
There is also online radio, call in.
I can walk into an Organic grocery into a field of Obama supporters, discuss real policy positions, votes, changes and they assuredly raise eyebrows and have pause. So many have no idea the true votes and policy differences between the two.
Interesting RCP polls across the board this morning:
Oregon Democratic Primary Suffolk Obama 45, Clinton 41 Obama +4.0
Kentucky Democratic Primary Suffolk Clinton 51, Obama 25 Clinton +26.0
Democratic Presidential Nomination Rasmussen Tracking Obama 46, Clinton 44 Obama +2.0
General Election: McCain vs. Clinton Rasmussen Tracking Clinton 45, McCain 45 Tie
General Election: McCain vs. Obama Rasmussen Tracking Obama 44, McCain 45 McCain +1.0
Ohio: McCain vs. Clinton Rasmussen McCain 43, Clinton 50 Clinton +7.0
Ohio: McCain vs. Obama Rasmussen McCain 45, Obama 44 McCain +1.0
In sum, a blowout in KY, a close one in Oregon, and Hill wins the national and Ohio matchups.
Some presumptive nominee.
. Prechumptive nominee.
He’s not the presumptive nominee.
He’s the presumptuous wannabe.
Presumptous wannabe!!
Two thumbs up!
Well done!
Hey Fosbach where are you? We need a bad cop to piss off the Hillary supporters. It energizes them even more than they already are energized. I’ll be the good cop.
Oh for gods sake, you’re irrelevant.
I have never seen anyone with less control so befuddled, and so obtuse to the reality.
You really are having a north korea moment today.
And this troll?
A north Korea “Movement…”
I love Hillary! She is such a hard worker she puts everyone else to shame. Go Hillary Go!!!!!!!!!
Sen. Robert Byrd endorses Obama
Another senil irrelevant freak Senator goes against his own state and endorses the empty suit. Strange coming from a well-known racist who obviously hates women.
W H A T T H E FK??????????????
AFTER THE 41 PT WIN IN WV???????
YOU ARE LYING!! IT CAN NOT BE!!
THIS IS SOME INSANE KOOLAIDE
IT’S GOT TO STOP
Weren’t the trolls calling Byrd a racist? Oops.
Does it surprise you?
Do you think Congress is corrupt?
Remember, Byrd also voted for Roberts and Alito…
He talks the talk, but he aways walks the Obama walk…
Obama and moveon helped him with $$$$$$$
Money talks, etc.. as always, follow the money.
Thank God!!!! Did we really want a former Klansman endorsing our girl?
Obama voted for Dick Cheney’s energy bill. Hillary Clinton voted against it. Cheney never submits anything unless there is MONEY in it for him. Three Huge pipelines coming out of Southwest Wyoming (Dick Cheney’s home state
) to end at a hub in Oregon. El Paso Natural Gas will own the Ruby Pipeline coming out of Southwest Wyoming. El Paso Natural Gas is head quartered in Houston Texas– Houston, is now Dick Cheney’s home town ; ). Then there are the other two lines “Bronco Pipeline and Kern River Pipeline” coming out of Southwest Wyoming. Everyone knows about Dick Cheney’s envolvement in the oil and gas industry. Obama voted for Dick Cheney’s energy bill– Hillary Clinton voted against Cheney’s energy bill.
More weak half assed Cheney’s moves, bound to backfire.
They really are stupid, making as much sense as the surge, in Iraq.
They are stupid.
Another perfect example of his actions speaking louder than his words. This is his “I can work with Republicans” in action. He’s not opposed to doing business with Dems or Reps, just so long as he and his posse get a cut. This is great! It’s so new -(sarcasm) getting past the partisan bickering when we still had one party that cared about the citizens and one the taxpayers. Now we have a bipartisan auction.
If only he had done a town hall someone could have asked. That’s why he has to go to the waterfront on a hot day and pose for the crowd instead.
Is Hillary campaigning somewhere today??
Cuz if she IS??? You’d never know it by CNN! Those fkrs have TWO Obama type events running on their LIVE feed
but NADA from HILLARY and I saw NADA over the weekend either.
Those Aholes are trying to delete here from the national message and it’s NOT GOING TO WORK!! THose tools over at CNN and MSNBC can pretend all they want. IT’s not going to end the way they think. I can’t wait to watch them ALL eat some crow.
Especially Larry (pig) O’Donnel and David (pimp me) Schuster and Roland (I’m a racist) Martin as well as the regulars TWeety, Olberdouche, Wolfy, Jack Craperty
I can’t WAIT to watch them EAT their words.
I think BNN and MSNBO are delusional and think their illness is contagious. Their impact is nil at this point. America is wise to their charade.
They are TRYING to do to Hillary what they did to Dennis Kucinich and John Edwards….IGNORE HER! Guess what? It’s NOT going to work this time! Hillary has many, many, many more devoted supporters than DK and JE ever had. I think they are going to be extremely embarrassed tomorrow night and on Wednesday when Mr. Hopey-Changey has a less than stellar showing in Oregon. I cannot wait until I see them wiping their horse shit grins off their faces and having to acknowledge, once again, they underestimated Hillary.
Ferraro suggests she may not vote for Obama
Posted: 01:00 PM ET
From CNN Ticker Producer Alexander Mooney
Ferraro is a supporter of Clinton’s presidential campaign.
(CNN) — Geraldine Ferraro, the outspoken former Democratic vice presidential candidate and a supporter of Hillary Clinton’s White House bid, told the New York Times she may not vote for Barack Obama should he be the party’s nominee.
Ferraro, a former member of Clinton’s finance committee who resigned that post earlier this year after making comments many viewed as racially offensive, also said she thinks the Illinois senator has been “terribly sexist” over the course of the presidential
http://www.politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/05/19/ferraro-suggests-she-may-not-vote-for-obama/
I guess they took this off the internet as well cause it will not come up.
Hasn’t Hillary been the candidate to pull the majority of the undecided votes? If so, me thinks Mr. Hopey-Changey should be shakin’ in his boots! She’s only 4 points behind with 11 undecided???? RUH ROH!
I would be in HEAVEN if Oregon came through for Hillary and gave her a clean sweep tomorrow! Man, how sweet would it be to see the talking heads’ faces and listen to them spin their way out of that one? Mr. Hopey-Changey just might have to postpone his self-coronation for another day. Heh.
8 undecided…sorry.
If Clinton wins KY by 20 points and Obama wins OR by 2 points Obama and Axelrove will claim that it was an even split.
Even though with similar numbers in reverse out of IN/NC the MSM signalled the death knell of HRC’s chances. How absurd, but I know you’re right….sad

Hillary Supporters, Want to Send a Message to the DNC?
I was just reading a blog about the anger some Hillary Clinton supporters feel about how the Democrat’s nomination process is turning out.
I figure a lot of this is sour grapes. All the Democratic camps knew the rules (convoluted as they are) before the campaigning began. But the Hillary supporters do have a few legitimate gripes. First it must be frustrating to see your beloved candidate go down to a well-pressed suit filled with nothing but pretty rhetoric. I’m no big fan of Clinton, but I have to admit her record of accomplishment easily dwarfs Obama’s. (As does the record of about 10,000 other public servants.) Then there’s all the media cheerleading for Obama. I wonder how many Hillary supporters have now decided Fox News is pretty swell after all.
http://www.capertree.blogspot.com/2008/05/hillary-supporters-want-to-send-message.html
It’s much, much more than sour grapes. Read the piece just posted for a keen analysis.
This disaster will destroy the party entirely. I’m now very convinced.
I’ve lost so many elections that it’s rare when my candidate wins, so dealing with the disappointment comes naturally.
This time is different. It’s the way it’s been done.
fox is only pretty swell until August then it will be
CHEERLEADING ALL DAY AND NIGHT FOR MCKOOK!!
I will stop watching TV all together at that point!
and will NOT VOTE FOR MCKOOK SORRY
keep pushing it
I’ll keep telling you FK NO!!
and FK NO I won’t vote for OBAMBI EITHER!
NO,NO,NO,NO,NO,NO,NO,NO,NO,NO,NO,NO!!
Dawnelle,
Dean and Brazile and Obama are counting on you to do just that.
Message to base: Stay home
No I didn’t say I would stay home honey I will WRITE IN HILLARY
IT’S ALLOWED IN NC
FK DONNA
FK DEAN
It is my right after all and I am beyond plugging my nose for either.
I can’t bring a barf bag with me into the voting booth or I might
(joking)
No I won’t vote for an Racist or an OLD Idiot Warmonger!
both would be wrong
I know a dozen other peeps around here that will be writing her in as well!!
Please register a protest vote for McCain. As one who struggled with voting for him, I decided my desire to reclaim the democratic party (by proving to the DNC with a landslide McCain victory that they need to change and make the democratic party democratic again) was stronger than my desire not to see McCain elected. Please (eyelashes batting..)
That blog is wanting us all to send $20 to McCain as a way to send a message to the DNC. Nice try, but my message to the idiots running the DNC will be in the form of support for future President Hillary Clinton.
Interesting, too, to see the Obama Dean connections.
I hope the corrupt DNC ends up in prison, with the Rezkos, and the Obamas, hounded for life.
Another marginalized failure, big whoop, Howard,,,
ROTFLMAO
lol….
<Does that cover it?)
Yeah. I’ll be damned if I send one penny to McSame.
Obama has his own polls
LOL. He uses them when all the other polls shows him losing. All Polls that show Obama losing are racists polls. The only polls Obama trust are the Al Jezzeera polls. I suppose the people in Iowa will just have to put up with his crap while Obama partys and hangs his “mission accomplished” banner across all their main drags. He will be celebrating winning while losing in Kentucky and in the American polls. LOL!!!!
Hahahha! I just found this commercial some 527 is running against McKook!!! It’s hilarious and gonna sink him below ground level in the FALL
IF Barry steals the DEM spot? UGH!
Watch out everyone if we are left with a choice of only McKRAZY “I can’t remember SHIT”
or
Obambi “I’m an empty suit but you’re a racist”
LORD KNOWS I’ll be considering Canada.
I found the clip down thread over at the AOL Political Machine
I’m old (not as old as McCain, but still old) and one of the most unacceptable things Obama has done in his campaign is ridicule and demean older people. I am not happy with McCain as a second choice should the DNC destroy the party by stealing from Hillary the nomination she has rightfully earned, but I will never vote for Obama.
If the almost fifty years old smirky little jackass wants to make his ridicule of McCain’s age more effective, perhaps Obama should himself try to remember how many states there are, what states border Illinois, and what state he is actually in when giving speeches. I haven’t seen McCain make such stupid errors ever; but Obama’s recent gaffes make you wonder what other mistakes he would make if he had to deal with the stress of being President, considering how he is wilting under the pressure of just running for office.
Obama is too Old and Confused to be President
McCain is too Old and Confused to be President. That’s the message that Obama supporters are trying to put out and they have a point. After all McCain is clearly old. McCain is an aged 71 while Obama is a spring chicken at the tender age of 46.
Unlike McCain, Obama is unconfused and on the ball all the time.
For example Obama knows that there are 57 states in the Union and he’s visited every one of them. Particularly Mars.
Obama knows that 10,000 people died in a Kansas tornado that killed only 10 people. Clearly math was never his strong subject.
At Selma, Obama informed us that his parents met four years after he was born and that his Kenyan diplomat father had a flag draped coffin.
He knows that Canada’s Prime Minister is actually a President
Obama knows they speak Arabic in Afghanistan and that there are poppy fields in Iraq
Obama knows that Matt Lauer is really Tim Russert
Obama had no idea whatsoever that his home church and the reverend with whom he had a 20 year relationship was a crazy america hating racist.
Hell Obama couldn’t even figure out how to use the voting buttons in the Illinois State Senate

so what you are telling me is this is going to come down to a contest between
DUMB AND DUMBER????????
OMG THE COUNTRY IS IN DEEEEEEP KIMCHI YA’LL!!
HILLARY YOU MUST BREAK THROUGH!!
(sorry for the yelling)
sonia likes screaming even better –lol
{{{HEY SONIA}}} LOL
hi
i just like to use this name
so people do not forget obama,s mistakes or stupidityyyyyyyyy
Obama Gaffe Check
For a guy as bright and intelligent as Barack Obama, he sure says some stupid things. He makes Joe Biden look guarded by comparison.
Stick a fork in him, he’s done.
Here is an incomplete catalog of Obama gaffes:
When asked how we would respond to another major al-Qaeda attack on the U.S., he talked about disaster response instead of military action.
Last May, in the wake of the deadly Kansas tornado, Obama said “Ten thousand people died – an entire town destroyed”. The death toll was actually 12 people.
Obama stated that he would meet with enemy dictators – without any preconditions.
Not long after, he said “if we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharaf will not act, we will.” With allies like Obama, who needs enemies?
He then declared that the use of nuclear weapons against al-Qaeda were “not on the table.”
Obama just last week referred to the ‘president’ of Canada. Canada has a prime minister, not a president.
Well, the “president” of Canada is the one who announced that Hillary had NOT, in fact, ever been in contact with anyone in Canada over NAFTA.
(Thus revealing to the world what we already knew. Obama lied.)
So maybe not knowing his title is another Obama snub. *wink*
Just Walk
After Tuesday Senator Clinton will have surpassed Obama in the popular vote count. Senator Clinton’s victories are all in Democratic stronghold states or states the Democrat needs. Senator Obama’s victories are almost all in GOP states.
In yet another astoundingly arrogant move Obama plans to be in Iowa Tuesday to “declare victory” . Though he won’ t have won the nomination. We, the people, are being gamed. We’ve been gamed all year in this process. Howard Dean and Donna Brazille have destroyed the Democratic Party. There can be no “healing process” because what Dean and Brazille have done is not a “wound”. It is a robbery. We need a justice process. Not a healing process. Please understand this one fact: If Obama is the nominee he will have been awarded it with a minority of Democratic votes and an elite cabal. That fact is the alpha and omega.
I know I won’t vote for Obama in November. I know I might vote for McCain.
And I know I am at peace with it.
I know the GOP will pull out all the stops to defeat Obama and I know I will support whatever they legally do. Obama is a dangerous fraud. We need at least 2 parties in this nation. Right now we only have one: The GOP. The Democratic Party is in full melt down. Fine. Justice should be served. If we, the majority members of the Democratic Party will not have our candidate nominated because a minority cabal gamed the system then we can do one thing: WALK. Walk any direction you like. Just WALK.
There are no scare tactics that can force me and millions of others back into voting for the person who lost in the process but was awarded the game.
He didn’t win California
He didn’t win New York
He didn’t win Texas
He didn’t win Florida
He didn’t win Pennsylvania
He didn’t win Massachusetts
He didn’t win Ohio
He didn’t win Michigan
He didn’t win Catholic voters
He didn’t win Reagan Democrats
He didn’t win women voters
He didn’t win white voters
He didn’t win Jewish voters
*He didn’t win the Latino voters
He didn’t win the Asian voters
He didn’t win the working class voters
He didn’t win.

I wish YALL would stop calling Obama an “empty suit”. Actually the suit he wears is full of a racist. A suit full of Rev Wrights anti-American home grown hate monger. Obama is not an empty suit, I wish he was, because the whole world would be better off if that were true.
GOOD POINT!
Ain’t it the truth though. Obama is a disaster waiting to happen to the world!!
You’re right, but you didn’t include everything — racist, sexist, ageist, elitist, and homophobe, just to name a few more. It’s amazing he’s able to get that thing buttoned.
Yes, empty suit and empty slate were then, we know him so much better now.
The suit and slate are filled up now and they point right to a great big neon flashing sign saying:
STOP THIS MAN NOW
What started out just days ago as pent-up anger at Obama and his supporters – including the media – by Hillary Clinton supporters in response to what they say has been a nasty, duplicitous, hypocritical, unfair, dirty, nasty campaign waged AGAINST them by Barack, his supporters and their media allies, has turned into a full-throttle movement that is gaining momentum, money, message and manpower (WOmanpower).
Just a few short days ago Hillary Clinton supporters were seething with anger as they rehashed over and over again among themselves in chat rooms, blogs and other forums across the Internet what has happened to them, their party, and their beloved candidate, Hillary Clinton. But now they have started web sites and blogs to develop strategies, associations and networks of like-minded people to defeat Barack Obama in November. Many Hillary supporters have not yet decided what exactly they will do to defeat Obama, while others HAVE decided on various strategies to set-in-motion their goal – the defeat of their foe, Barack Obama.

BITTER
I am only one person but I can cancel out one vote for Obama—IF it comes down to that. He hasn’t won the nomination yet. But it looks as if he will be celebrating as he loses Kentucky accrding to what the media is saying.
I AM SO PISSED OFF RIGHT NOW! I just read a post over at TalkLeft and SENATOR BYRD (WV) endorsed OBAMA!!!!!!! After Hillary kicked Obama’s ASS , royally, in WV that SOB endorses Obama??? WTF is going on here? I’m so freakin’ pissed off at this good old boys club I could PUKE!
The voters in WV need to send a strong message. One he will understand via the vote.
Thank God Strickland understands what works (and who works) for Ohio. Which is why I am going to work for his re-election when the time comes.
I read he (Strickland) was being considered as veep for Barry. I sure hope not. I campaigned for him, donated $$$ and was a constituent before he was gov. Anyone else hear that? I pray it isn’t true.
lol yes I just had a FIT MYSELF!!!
IT’s unREAL!!!
Then register a protest vote for McCain n Nov if HRC is not on the ballot.
(no I’m not a repub troll. What I’d really lke to see is a movement to create a 3rd party-to re-gain the working class, middle class and working poor values that the democratic used to be about before it became the party of the welfare state, corporate enabling and champagne socialists)
I just went back to an anti-Hillary site that I used to go to before the Primary. I could barely stomach the responses as they commented on an article there about how the race was over. One woman actually talked about being embarrassed by Hillary’s misogynist claims and wanted Hillary to donate $20 million of her own money for the GE to compensate for the damage she’s done. Others dismissed the Feminist impact and proclaimed not to worry, they’ll be back in the fall. No way would they vote for McCain who called his wife the c-word. Another, dismissed Hillary’s supporters saying they didn’t need them.
How many commenters on that particular thread from last week? 30. And in general their comments section is tallying an average of 10 posts, some less than 5. Someone mentioned noquarter as a pro-Hillary doing damage to their Precious O.
These people are delusional. It hasn’t even occured to them to look at just the number people posting on their site. The blog about yesterday’s Obama Oregon rally had 18 comments. They even had the audacity to complain that MSNBC had downsized the event to 65,000. As if the Porn Network has been anything but in the tank for Obama.
Whether it happens in Nov or August, these people are in for a shock of gargantuan proportions. I’d pity them except they are too dangerous.
Holy COW! Could you imagine the exploding of heads if Hillary pull out a slight victory or came close in OR????
Air Obama and Obama Underground would freak!!
Obama would be to busy celebrating his win to even realize he has lost. Obama is a fruit-cake. A dangerous fruit cake.

OHHHHHh BLAST!
Now cnnlive is covering a Hillary event
but it’s also time for CORBETT
drat drat drat!!
Myrtice Tompkins from Fl. One of the states who had our votes stollen so Howard Dean and the almighty Donna Brizell the superdelegrates who are only suppose to vote at the convention if the regular delegrate count didn’t give the nonomiee all to give the votes to Obama . You know Fl. is the state winner takes all. Obama has flat refused to let our votes be counted unless he got as many as Mrs. Clinton did .Also in Mich. Both states voted for her. Fl. votes were complete Mich. didn’t have his name on the ballot but he took it off as not to be embrassed, but the citizen of these two great states voted anway after we were told the big whigs had screwed us up again. We spoke loud and clear who we wanted Mich. voted and spoke loud and clear who they wanted . Those who did not want to vote for Clinton voted none of the above or undicided. Give all those to Obama .He deserves them. She still won the two states. Well I will be going to Washington DC. for hext saturdays committe meeting to decide on how to go ahead and take the votes for him.We will voice our feeling on the matter. Yes Mrs. Clinton has had the the win taken away from her. rememenber George bush did this first and showed them how easy it is to steal . People keep fighting and do alot of praying the God will save Our great county form sue destruction. God bles The United States of America. I wil never vote for him hope he doesn’t come to our stste. We don’t want him in our state.
I think Clinton will be railroaded, I hope she has a good attorney, ready to hit the ground, running, those tracks being laid NOW.
Good thing, Dean and Brazile and rest of the democratic elite are such fuck ups, a kangaroo court will backfire, as does everything else with those clowns.
susa right now has obama by 13 in oregon. i’d like to see her close that down to under 5. yes we will!
I wonder if the Obots at the convention will be rude jerks when Hillary speaks?
Remember, there’s no black rescue squad waiting to save Obama in Oregon, and the mail-in vote is almost 50-50. The last poll I saw was 45 BO and 41 HC, with 8% undecided and 6% unresponsive. 14% of the people in Oregon are still on the fence. No wonder Barack is going to be in Iowa tomorrow night. Even he doesn’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow in Oregon.
I hope it will be a surprise victory for Hillary!
I WOULD BE VERY CAREFUL ON THE ABOVE LINK.It has a picture of John McCain not that matters cause that’s who I will vote for if they take this away from Hillary.But I feel funny about the link about.It ask for donation with your credit information.If you really wanted to donate any money to Hillary or with this link about as John McCain pops up.who’s to say it’s his site and not a fake site that goes to Obama! Or someone who now has your personal information!Don’t go there.If you want to send John McCain a message go to his site.If Hillary go to her site.No wI think it may be great to drop in on John McCain to say here we are if Hillary is pushed out. But I will not vote McCain because I am A Hillary supporter.But soon be Hillary is pusged out.Obama tonight on the news made some threats…he said be carefull in what you democrats do.
The link above don’t go there and sound off Hillary supporters.It’s has a picture of John McCain and to donate but you give your card information.Who’s to say it just a picture of John McCain made up and the money and will go to Obama..Or someone we don’t know out to stael your information.Don’t go there..if you want to sound off go to their website not this one!!!!!!!!!It may be kind of good to go let him know that you will be behind him if Hillary is pushed out! I will not vote OBAMA! NOT NOW NOT EVEN IN THE FUTURE! I AM SUPPORTING hILLARY ALL THE WAY TO DENVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!GO HILLARY
HEY YOU ALL SOMEONE HAS PUT A LINK HERE AND IT TAKES YOU TO A PAGE THAT’S MADE TO LOOK LIKE JOHN MCCAIN.IT ASK YOU FOR YOU PERSON INFORMATION AND DONATION.AND TO SOUND OFF ABOUT WHAT’S GOING ON.WELL DON’T GO THERE IT MAY BE OBAMA OR SOMEONE OUT TO TAKE YOU PERSONAL INFORMATION.
By May 31st, hopefully Hillary can say that she has the popular vote and has won in the states that will give her the advantage in the electoral college, so this is FAR FROM OVER!!! In fact, Obama is on the run right now, there is nothing positive about him in the press, and in fact, he is nearly messing his pants over the supposed video floating around out there about Michelle railing on “whitey”. So, sit tight , folks, be patient, give it a little longer, and pray that the people of Oregon will come together like West Virginia and Kentucky…it’s very close and we need them to make this happen. This will be going to the floor of the convention either way, because if it doesn’t, we will all be voting for McCain in November!
Imagine if Hillary pulls an upset in Oregon.
DemocratUnderground will have to be shut down from the shock.
After all the cries for Hillary to drop out – let’s give them a taste of their own medicine. If Hillary beats him in both Oregon and Kentucky tomorrow, maybe it’s time Obama started considering career alternatives…
especially since he was so ahead in Oregon. Can’t even win over the rich white liberals now? Poor Obambi.
