He is the Selectee, Not the Nominee

All the post mortems about why Hillary lost?

She DIDN’T LOSE.

Tell the voters in OH, PA and WV that she lost.

The losing was purely an inside job.

They decided she lost, and didn’t care what the voters said. Every time she won a major primary, we’d hear: “Well time to quit.”

All the DC mediocrities that resent Clinton’s popularity, just used
Obama to feel good. Even if it destroys the party.

Talk about the oil bubble, the Obama bubble will burst before
the election, if it hasn’t already.

Oh, trust me. Nothing has changed for this ex-Democrat. Or the THOUSANDS of people banding together right now to help defeat Obama.

Those thousands will probably become millions.

Why?

Oh, because he sucks.

Well, I am glad I am not the only one that wonders what happened. Where are the peoples convictions? Their outrage? Their beliefs that Obama was and still is inept, inexperienced, unqualified, and down right dangerous? I am sitting here completely baffled. And I am glad to find out I am not the only one questioning the sanity of those who all of a sudden think he is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Well, I did something about it. I drove 20 milesand I changed my affiliation and now I am an ex-Democrat. I will not conform, not comply, not change my mind about Obama. I will vote for McCain. It is my right and my vote and I am never going back.

I will NEVER vote for him.

I will NEVER forget what was done during the primary.

I have principles and I will stick to them.

You are right. Nothing changed, he didn’t get a fatter resume…nothing has changed…he won’t get my vote…it is about our country not a party.

EXCELLENT Post! And so very true.

All I can say is AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA MEN!!!! I will work to get McCain ellected. I will never, NEVER, N-E-V-E-R vote for that hatefilled, racist, misogynistic hoodwinking, bamboozling, huckster of a lying snakeoil salesman. If this means I give up on the Dem party so be it. It is THEIR dicission NOT mine to volunterily go stark raving mad. They have had as big a break with reality as the WORST of the republican wingnuts EVER had.

duh.
Hate to break it to ya, girlie….
Barack Obama IS the nominee.

Hilary COULD have been the nominee if she hadn`t been so inept and overconfident.

I suspect those people felt a bit frantic about their position. They like to be a kitten in a pile. Being independent probably isn’t something they can tolerate.

ProudMilitaryMom…Has your on-screen name been highjacked? Or did you post over at Dems4McCain?

Just curious.

Can someone please give me a percentage of how many of us actually feel this way? That is, how many Clinton supporters know enough NEVER to vote for the man? 25%, 30%, 35%??

Even at 25% -even less- it’s enough to guarantee he never sees the inside of the oval office without having to pay for a guided tour.

I WILL NEVER THROW AWAY MY VOTE on a candidate, who propelled himself to a nomination by race-baiting, smearing his opponent, and lying about his record, and whose name is Obama….

After all the Bush administration has done, BO and the DNC have done more to save the Republican Party than any Republican ever could.

I will still be voting for a candidate who has integrity, dignity, and honor, who loves this country and has deep respect for its people.
That candidate should have been Hillary Clinton, but since, first the DNC and then the Super Delegates ignored the voters, it will be McCain..

I guess you all know the page at his web site that had the stuff about the Jews has been scrubbed.

http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/juancarloscruz/gG5BSr

I have screen shots..

Well, there is no change here. Not voting for BO. Not ever.

I don’t understand how ANYONE could ever vote for him. Not even the people who voted for him in the primaries. He presented himself as one thing and has been proven to be a complete fraud. We, of course, knew all along that he had no qualifications, no experience and no strength of character to be, as he likes to say, President of the United States of America. When people say they are casting their votes in order to protect a woman’s right to choose, I say my vote against him is a vote to protect a woman’s right to choose. The DNC has proven that they couldn’t care less about allowing women a choice.

the Selectee is only a valid opition for many of Hillary’s people because she said he should be; what else was she supposed to say?

it was such a powerful speech she even had me convinced i had to support him. but within a few days i have regained my perspective. of course it doesn’t take much, thank god.

i will never vote for obama. i may not even vote for him if Hillary is on the ticket. i flat out don’t trust the people that obama fronts for..

Sen John McCain

give him a chance…see what he can do, and how he listens to and dialogues with the18,000,000 disenfranchised democrats. he’s bi partisan, has patriotic values, tons of experience, has a strong sense of loyalty, and he’s certainly no more of a mysoginist than obama and co.

i’m willing to take my chances. a vote for McCain is a vote against the DNC and obama.

sorry Hillary, i still think for myself.

Many people are probably doing like me. I haven’t changed how I feel about Obama – now I am waiting. So many things have already come out about Obama – I feel like the scandals are only beginning. I have felt like Hillary knew some things about him that she didn’t use because of the explosiveness of it and what it would have done to the party and African Americans in particular. But she knows that the Republicans have this information and will use it – the only question is the timing. My sincere wish is that enough of it will come out before the convention that we will be saved from this awful mistake.

Great questions, PMM.
How anyone can support BO after close examination is mind boggling. I suspect some people want to be “good” party members.

The other thought I’ve had is that this very contentious primary with all the abuse from BO’s mindless hoards has been difficult for people. I wouldn’t be surprised if some people are just plain tired of the name calling, accusations of racism and the conflict that has arisen between people.

And of course others, who will remain nameless, write and/or blog for dollars and have the economic need to support the front runner so that they will have a growing audience of readers.

I just saw the ABC news and Matthew Dowd had an interesting collective Freudian slip. When asked if either political party would exploit the other candidate’s age or race he erroneously said that he didn’t believe that either candidate will use “ageism or sexism” in the general election campaign. Reminds me of Axelrod’s comment that Obama is the “punitive” not presumptive nominee. When living in lies, the subconscious tends to prevail.

Here’s the video link. The slip happens at about 1 minute 35 seconds into the clip.

http semicolon // abcnews dot go dot com/Video/playerIndex?id=5025622

I have not forgotten nor do I intend to fall into line and climb onto the back of the Democratic turnip truck.

I’ve voted for the lessor of evils my entire life, but Obama is just ridiculous. The Democrats have pushed me too far.

The economy is crashing, gas is unaffordable, we’re in an endless war, let the Republicans clean up their own damn mess for a change.

Thanks PoudMilitaryMom….damn I was getting sleepy… then I saw those pods show up…

That is what happens in a “rubberneck democracy”.

Thanks for the shot. Well said.

I had heard at one point of the “what does hillary want” phase of Obot delirium that Senator Clinton wanted a role call vote in November…anyone know if that is still the case? Is still the case she will get one?

does anyone have a link to the youtube clip from the DNC rules hearing where the Obama representatives actually propose stealing the votes and vote on it etc?

i have Ickes response clip but would like the clips of the people endorsing the vote stealing the the dude who put the Obama proposal on the table…

also, i think a woman asked him if Obama supported seating all the delegates or something like that and he gave some half assed answer… or avoided answering but i’d like that clip as well as he looked like he was really squirming…

thanks guys!

-gerard

I’m a Clinton supporter, who feels it is time to move on. Because we support a candidate is not sufficient reason to go along with them when they lose. The only way America won’t lose now is not to put Obama in the White House. I just ordered a “McCain for President” yard sign. I worked for Republicans and they’re not so bad (g). Ike was great. I would not risk my country’s security on someone like Barack Obama. I’m going to do all that I can to get John McCain elected and I hope other veterans do the same.

I wouldn’t vote for Obama in a million years.

His race-baiting was deplorable.

I never thought I’d get to this point but after what’s all been done to HRC, I’m looking forward to the Republican attack machine this year towards him, the DNC & RBC. It would make 4 years of McCain worth it.

No one that I know that was supporting Hillary is voting Obama. He is NOT the nominee until all the votes are counted at the convention…that would be in August!

Obama and the Convicted Felon
Guy Benson
Sunday, June 08, 2008

Chicago’s sordid political machine churned out another felon last week. Ho hum. That’s business as usual in the Windy City, unfortunately. As news bulletins blared the latest political casualty, Northsiders and Southsiders alike shrugged—seemingly inured to the steady stream of arrests, indictments and convictions that too often define what Chicago Tribune columnist John Kass aptly terms “The Chicago Way.” This conviction, however, represents more than an average garden-variety corruption scandal. The demise of crooked businessman and political fixer Tony Rezko may very well end the political career of Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich. Perhaps more significantly, it adds another name to the expanding roster of Sen. Barack Obama’s disgraced friends, donors, and associates.

Prior to Wednesday’s verdict, the national Obamedia paid scant attention to the relationship between their preferred candidate and Mr. Rezko, who was convicted on 16 of 24 federal counts. A jury found Obama’s longtime friend and financier guilty of aiding and abetting bribery, mail fraud, wire fraud, and money laundering—all of which will likely contribute to a lengthy prison sentence. The federal convict and the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee have known each other for the better part of two decades, with the former raising approximately $250,000 for the latter’s various campaigns. After Rezko first offered Obama a job in the early 1990s, a friendship and political alliance was born; the two men shared dinners, joint outings with their wives, and a lucrative political network. Rezko served on Obama’s financing committee during his 2004 campaign, helping to raise approximately $160,000 for the aspiring U.S. Senator. Shortly thereafter, dark clouds began to gather over Chateau Rezko.

By 2005, Rezko’s shady business deals and alleged illegal activities had been widely reported in the Chicago press. Even so, Obama decided it would be a wise move to enter into a major property deal with his scandal-tainted friend. On the very same day Obama paid $1.65 million (a substantially smaller sum than the asking price) for his Hyde Park mansion, another buyer purchased an adjoining lot for $625,000—an additional sum the Obama’s could not afford. The new owner? Rezko’s wife, Rita, who somehow managed to secure the property despite an annual salary of $37,000. A short while later, Mrs. Rezko generously sold a strip of her new property to Obama so he could build a fence he had been hoping for. At the time of this second transaction, Obama admits he knew Rezko was experiencing some “legal problems.” Nonetheless, the deal went through and a lovely wrought-iron fence—paid for by Rezko—was erected between the two properties. The whole episode worked out pretty nicely for Obama. One might even call it an “exchange we can believe in.”

Now with Rezko facing a decidedly different type of iron fence, his deep ties to Obama demand further examination. The scandal presents three problems for Senator Obama:

First, anyone who watches Law & Order knows that the State constantly seeks to land the biggest fish possible. Convicted felons are sometimes offered legal carrots to help the prosecution produce even bigger scalps higher up the ladder. In this particular case, the likeliest prize is Gov. Blagojevich, whose ethical bankruptcy came to light during Rezko’s trial. Even so, if Rezko has any dirt on Obama, such information could prove quite valuable to a man facing decades in federal prison. Any public figure with skeletons in Rezko’s closet should be sweating over the thought of Rezko playing Deal or No Deal with US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald. Then again, given Rezko’s sterling reputation, pristine character, and undying loyalty, I’m sure Obama has nothing to worry about.

Second, this relationship also shows Obama is not only a typical politician, but a typical Chicago politician. When the crooked machine produces hundreds of thousands in campaign dollars, a series of prestigious elected offices, and an elegant home, one doesn’t ask too many questions. Obama was more than happy to ride the gravy train, even after he got a noxious whiff of corruption. That’s the Chicago Way.

This also exposes Obama’s promise of a “new kind of politics” and squeaky-clean ethics as empty platitudes. His campaign website devotes an entire page to ethics, boasting—somewhat disingenuously —that Obama is the only major candidate who rejects fundraising dollars from lobbyists. He says he’s “done more than any other candidate in this race” to take on lobbyists and corruption. Evidently those evil lobbyists are the primary threat to clean governmental ethics, as opposed to corrupt fundraisers who help candidates seal multimillion dollar property deals. As the campaign moves forward, every time Democrats try to tar John McCain for some nebulous tie to a lobbyist, the Republican can fire back, “Last time I checked, my longtime friends and fundraisers aren’t in federal prison.”

Finally, and most strikingly, Rezko’s downfall raises more alarming questions about Barack Obama’s judgment. This would be less of an issue for Obama if he hadn’t just traipsed across the country for months speaking at podiums with the slogan “Judgment To Lead” emblazoned on the front. Experience is overrated, Obama tells us. In fact, his paper-thin presidential resume and far-left voting record really aren’t that important compared to his stellar judgment. This argument is precisely the reason why Obama’s gripes about “distracting” media scrutiny of his associations should fall on deaf ears. One of the few ways to cut through his enigmatic persona is to study the people with whom he’s surrounded himself for decades. The list isn’t reassuring: Rev. Wright, Father Pfleger, William Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn, Rashid Khalidi, and Tony Rezko.

Obama recently expressed shock that his church had become the subject of political controversy. Really? Was there another reason why he uninvited Jeremiah Wright to join him onstage at his presidential announcement last year? When he finally threw Wright under the bus upon hearing a regurgitation of Wright’s craziest hits at the National Press Club, he soberly stated the raving reverend was “not the same man I knew 20 years ago.” When asked about the Rezko verdict, Obama again claimed to be baffled: “This isn’t the Tony Rezko I knew,” he lamented. Sound familiar?

One has to wonder if Obama believes the American people to be a bunch of patsies. Perhaps he confuses the rest of us with his most ardent supporters, who reflexively applaud everything he says or does. The majority of American voters aren’t yet mesmerized by his spell, and this cynical act is starting to wear thin. He expects us to believe that he’s been an innocent sheep in the midst of barely-disguised wolves for decades, and that he was oblivious to their true nature all the while. He seems to think we’re buying the canned line from his internal TelePrompter that reads, “This isn’t the [fill in name of disgraced friend/radical associate] that I’ve known for [X] years.” When does this refrain become inoperable?

Maybe it’s cynical and unfair to assume that Obama is a liar who’s simply spinning tales in order to get elected. Let’s give him the benefit of the doubt and take him at his word: He’s a naive man who consistently, and badly, misjudges the character of even his closest associates. If he’s truly unable to discern the intentions of Jeremiah Wright and Tony Rezko after decades-long friendships, it’s completely reasonable to worry about his ability to effectively deal with antagonistic world leaders whose subversive intentions pose grave threats to world peace.

The Rezko aftermath forces Americans to wonder: Is Obama lying, or is he just clueless? Neither answer inspires much confidence in his ability to effectively lead our nation.

HI EVERYONE —

Life sucks .
My hubby took me to san diego/harbor hoping to make me feel better (depressed b/c of what everyone did to hillary)

Clinton’s new job: Persuading diehard fans to back Obama

My message to Clinton: Don’t waste your time.

Hello all.

I’m a Taylor Marsh refugee seeking shelter from the obamacane.

I will NEVER vote for that fraud, that corrupt inept unqualified vain-glorious POS.

Hope I’ve made my position clear.

I really appreciate this post because it sums up my perspective. I became convinced that Obama was a reiteration of GWB. His incredible lack of experience and his glittering surface are almost a mirror image of the present Oval office occupation that has unhinged this country. How can one come to that conclusion and then contemplate even for a nano second voting for Obama knowing it is a vote for more GWB? The issues go from small personal insults and mannerisms—the finger to HRC, a blog site redolent with hateful comments and posts from radical groups— to major manipulations of the truth—touting no lobbyist money while taking huge sums from exactly those sources; the use of Rovian tactics against HRCs UHC plan, MI and FL, on and on. There is no need to rehash all of it here because nothing has changed. How can the people who stood by these truths together only yesterday, suddenly be talking about voting for Obama today. I understand and accept that Hillary must do what she is doing as a gesture of unity but I know that I can not go in that direction and support Obama. My ears did not hear a concession speech yesterday but a clear definition of what HRC laid down as what is required to be a Democrat, a Clinton Democrat. I am reassured that here and with certain other pro HRC blogs there is a determination to defeat Obama and a recognition that the only way to do that is work for McCain’s election even though he is a poor choice. The defeat must be overwhelming or Obama will still be around as will that anti-middle class voice in the party. I think a landslide defeat is going to be hard to get because McCain is grabbing at protecting his right side as he tries to reach out to HRC voters and those two positions are in serious conflict.

Rashid Khalidi, himself, is not the issue of this article, this article is about the difference in descriptions from Barack Obama’s own words when he is front of once audience to his comments and praise when he is in a different place at a different time with a different audience. It is a question of judgment and the reader will decide for themselves if the growing list of questionable associations tied to Barack Obama is or is not indicative of his judgment or lack thereof.

Obama is illegitimate. Obama needs to be repudiated.

I know this might sound silly and not everyone is a believer in this sort of thing, but this made me feel better:

Any easy way to make the ObamaBots stick out like a sore thunmb is to use a name such as Obama_Sucks_2 ,
Obama_Sucks_3, Obama_Sucks_4 , Obama_Sucks_18,000,000 etc.

i don’t post much, but am always reading and agreeing with hillary supporters. there are many more like me out here that enjoy your posts. we are still with you.

“There’s dirt and lies that are circulated and emailed. And they pump them out long enough until finally you, a mainstream reporter, asks me about it. And then that gives legs to the story. If somebody has evidence that myself or Michelle or anybody has said something inappropriate, let them do it.”

Great post, you’re exactly right!

Which is why the party as well as Obama must be resisted. Integrity cannot be thrown over by “the little people” as easily as the “elite” set who think they will gain from all this. At least I hope not…

Hey, Smartguy,

If you’re so worried about us being trillions in debt I’d suggest you check “Barack Obama’s African priority (Global Poverty Act)
Senator Barack Obama is the main sponsor of Senate Bill S.2433, commonly called the Global Poverty Act.”

Price tag? $8500 per person.

A film that greatly influenced me as a young ‘ho was Born in Flames by feminist Lizzie Borden.
It’s been a few decades since I saw it, but the memory continues to haunt, and I think of it as the election was deftly stolen from Clinton.
I’d link you to it, but it isn’t allowed.
Sometimes things you think were great, aren’t so a few years later, but in these times, think it is definitely worth a viewing.
I feel like we have more power than we realize, and we ought to get together and use it.

The DNC thinks when Obama gives his acceptance speech which would be on August 28 coincidently the same date back in 1963 that when martin Luther King Jr. gave his famous “I got a dream speech” will “Unite” the party. Think again, at least for me.

I’m still supporting HILLARY – NOT her decision however to endorse (she used the “e” word)Obama. I think she was told to say (actually I think the speech was written FOR her to say). She didn’t look comfortable up there at all. It wasn’t just that she was suspending her campaign either. It was much more. You could tell by the way she said things that she didn’t BELIEVE it. Remember the day she made fun of Obama? “The clouds will part, the clouds will come down” Yeah that one. She sounded JUST LIKE THAT! I’m sure I’m not the only one that saw it. I just can’t vote for Obama – even if Hillary is on the ticket. Can’t. Won’t and will do whatever I can to help expose him for what he is.

This makes me want to puke, how dare Obama think I need to be indoctrinated by a bunch of foul mouthed , womanizing, hip hop artists!

US Presidential candidate Barack Obama embraces Jay-Z

By Rahim, 01-10-2008 , 08:47 AM

US Presidential hopeful Barack Obama plans to utilize hip-hop artists to educate American people, should he be elected as the Democrat candidate.

Obama has already been dubbed “B-Rock” by Vibe Magazine, has managed to capture the imagination of the American hip-hop community.

The senator has confirmed that he plans to utilize hip-hop artists to educate American people, should he be elected as the Democrat candidate and then make it as President.

Speaking on US TV show “What’s In It For Us” he explained: “I’ve met with Jay-Z. I’ve met with Kanye (West). And I’ve talked to other artists about how potentially to bridge that gap.”

He added: “There are times, even on the artists I’ve named, the artists that I love, that there is a message that’s sometimes degrading to women, and uses the N-word a little too frequently.”

Could Obama be the —AntiChrist rather that the MessiObama as he has been portrayed by media?

I’m listening to that toe sucking pervert dick morris bashing Hillary again. He loves that middle eastern connection and wants more, eh Barky?

Both Obama and McCain turned down ABC’s offer to host their town hall and both say that the press can cover it, but none of the networks will be the sponsors.

Now, that is a very good decision from both camps.

O JEEEEEEEEEZ!!!!!

Incoming!

Duck for cover! Another major Madison Avenue Marketing blitz. Between that and Ms. ‘Why’d He’ hosting the view on June 18 . . . .

I cannot express how THANKFUL I am to have moved on from my former job teaching music in VERY urban school systems.

I just wish I could somehow filter into Obama supporters just how the general election campaign works. I’ll try anyway. Obamabots: this is what happens: a long, hot summer drags on and the general public puts the coming election on low pilot. The economy may get a little better, the Repub candidate starts making moderate sounding news bites, a little negative slam on the democrat candidate here and there is put out; and then labor comes and BAM!! full attack mode ensues. A scandal of the week is rolled out on Obambi; the former friendly newspeople are breathless with their jumping all over each other reporting the Repub campaign leaks; Obambi’s on the defensive (it doesn’t matter that he knows all this is coming); the endless poll watching groans on; Obambi-McCain debates show Obambi’s vacuous answers; suddenly Repub’s talk about a comeback in the House and Senate; and its just all so exciting for the formerly friendly Main Stream Media. Repub’s talk about how great a candidate Hillary would have been and how much they were afraid of her in the GE. Nov 5th comes and McCain’s smiling mug is all over the place. Hill and Bill won 2 general campaigns together. We need them for this one.

I will not vote for Obama. I will probably vote for McCain. My vote will mean absolutely nothing. Obama will carry my state (Illinois) by large numbers.
The thing the Obama supporters (trolls) don’t understand is that most people on this board have been completely turned off by Obama for several different reasons. Alot of the women are disgusted at the treatment of Hillary. Rightfully so. It was disgusting. Alot of people are disgusted in the racial overtones of the campaign. Also disgusting. Bill and Hillary Clinton are not and have never been racists. Calling decent non-racist people racists is not something that can easily be forgiven. Trampling all over a woman that is well respected by other women is not easily forgiven.

For me it is none of the above. Being a lifelong Cook County Democrat I have witnessed this garbage in every election. While disgusting, I think I have developed a thick skin for this kind of Politics. After most elections in Illinois you don’t really want to vote for anyone. So much crap has been flung around, you can not feel really happy with any candidate.

The reason I will not vote for Obama is where he comes from. Having lived my entire life under the firm hand of the Cook County (Chicago) Machine, I am well versed in what these people stand for. Anyone who honestly believes that they are “By The People, For The People” are in for a very rude awakening. They dont give a rats ass about you.

Roe vs Wade and the Iraq war, while powerful arguments, are not that useful, when the people you are trying to win over, simply do not believe a single word that Obama says. The people who are now lining up behind Obama after Hillarys speech are Hoping that Obama is a man of his word. He isn’t.

As I have said before too many times —that—–Many people who voted for Barck Hussien Obama in the early primaries based on what they thought at the time was a good candidate and now has most likely changed
and I am sure he will lose many– many more voters in the GE. As more comes out about this guy, voters are going to run, even if the media and his brainwashed public supporters will not -they have jedi effect on them .

I left off ‘day’ after labor

Those Democrats who thought this whole primary was a unfair and Obama playing the race card was horrible. Why are they going to vote for Obama anyway? Because they are Democrats first and Americans second. But don’t worry. Obama will not be rewarded for all the rotten divisive things he has done against Hillary. As Pat Buchanan has stated, if 25% of Hillary supporters don’t vote for Obama, he is toast.

Comment by ken | 2008-06-08 20:39:40

The guy hasn’t even been elected, and he’s already incited the anger of so many. Bush’s got nothing on him.

A lot of the anger comes from people who see Obama’s slime (Rezko, Trinity etc.) background not get the full attention by the media, adding insult to injury the DNC fiasco, the list goes on and on. I would rather bite the bullet and put up with 4 years of McCain out of principle, instead of having DEM crook in the oval office.

Dickie toe-sucking Morris of the Odinga 1000-Christian massacre fame?

He was an ADVISOR to Waffles cousin and was indirectly responsible for the massacre as it was his suggestion Odinga stage a ‘million-Kenyan’march.”

I can not wait for the Michelle tape to come out and Obama say “that is the not the Michelle I knew and throw her under the bus with Resko, Wright

Perhaps many some Hillary supporters are stepping up to the bar to drink the Koolaid because they want to be part of the the “Young and Popular Crowd.”

They’re tired of being electronically spat upon on the net and labelled racists.

That’s okay.

Polls showed 60% of Hillary Supporters would go The Way Of Obama. He who will heal the oceans the minute he becomes POTUS.

But we are the 40% who know better.

We are the 40% with thicker skin and a stronger sense of self worth, self awareness and self determination.

Hillary suspended her campaign, she did not concede.

That’s all I need to keep the faith and do my part to turn SuperDels away from Obama for the Denver Convention.

Instead of trying to convert the Obama faithfuls and the Hillary ship jumpers, I say we focus on petitioning the SuperDels and education the MANY MANY voters who have yet to vett Obama for themselves.

There numbers are minion.Let’s reel them in for Hillary.

Well guys, I was going to remain Independent but I now have to register as a Democrat, at least for September. You see, there is a challenger to John Kerry’s Senate seat in the Mass primary in Sept. Kerry tried to keep Ed O’Reilly off the ballot but Mr O’Reilly garnered 22.5% of the delegates at the Mass state convention on Sat. He only needed 15%. I will work my butt off to get Kerry OUT. I am sure he will have BO campaigning for him as well as the other Axelrod creation, Deval Patrick our not so illustrious Gov. Then I will switch back to Ind and vote for McCain for the GE. By the way, it was to be expected thaty some Hillary supporters would switch to the brown shirts, they know not what they do. After the 1980 Primary 45% of Kennedy’s supporters said they would not vote for Carter, the number ended up being closer to 27%.

Barack Obama, Kenya, his cousin Odinga and Islamic jihad

Obama and his paternal 1st cousin Odinga, wanted to bring the whole of Kenya under Sharia law. Obama campaigned for Odinga in August of 2006,just before he filed with the US Federal Elections Commission for his presidential candidacy.

The idea was simply to have the Luo tribe, mostly Muslims, to take over Kenya from the inheritors of colonial power, the Kikuyu, and bring the country under Sharia law, kick out the Western investors in the nation that had made it one of the most stable nations in Africa, and supplant those Western investors with wealthy Arab oil money.It all failed.Then Odinga yelled election fraud, and put his Luo Islamofascists into the streets of Nairobi to “protest” by murdering, raping and maiming Kikuyu people, including the recent burning alive of a church full of Christians.

Dick Morris Looks To ‘Swift Boat’ Hillary
RightBias.com ^ | 1-21-07 | Nancy Morgan

Posted on Sunday, January 21, 2007 11:42:50 AM by nancyvideo

Dick Morris, longtime former aide to Bill Clinton, is soliciting funds to finance an expose – documentary film of Senator Hillary Clinton who announced last week her intention to run for president in 2008.

In a letter sent to Republican mailing lists this week, Morris asks for contributions of $25 to $100 to help in his efforts.

“If you liked how the Swift Boat Veterans turned the tide against John Kerry, you understand how a top Clinton aide can turn the tables and stop a Clinton style liberal from becoming the next president of the United States.”

so obama used republicans to attack hillary too .

uppitywomen,

O’Dickie, O’dingie, O’bomba.

Hmmmmmmmmm

Try saying that 3 times fast. *LOL*

One of the best blogs I’ve read. Here! Here!

Found a new interesting site.

http://www.obama-wire.com/

People say they won’t vote for Obama because he has no experience, he too snobby, or because of his friends – Rezko, Ayers, the racist preachers, the Iraqi crooks, and so forth.

I have a different reason and I find it odd that the media hasn’t addressed it yet.

The thing that completely turned me against him was the way he “won” this primary. We all know Hillary won the popular vote and I believe that this is representative of “the will of the people”.

What Obama did was not representative or even democratic. He won through delegates, not the popular vote. The delegates are based on an inequitable and disproportionate system which many have said should be abandoned for those reasons.

Obama took it a step further. He wanted to make sure he had the delegates and probably suspected he would have a hard time beating Hillary in the primaries, which he did. She had huge wins and won the big states needed to win in Nov..

So, he had his thugs go into the caucuses and threaten, pressure, and lock out voters. The worst of these cases was in Texas where voters had papers stolen, documents forged, people were pushed, blocked, sat down, thrown out, and locked out. There were threats, assaults, thefts, fraud, and corruption of every kind imaginable.

The proof is in the results. Texas is a clear example, Hillary won the legitimate primary votes and Obama “won” the delegates through the corrupt caucuses.

There were over 2000 complaints filed with the DNC in Texas alone, even with the phone lines jammed. Now that Obama has taken over the DNC I doubt that we will hear anymore about it.

I find it to be un-democratic, un-American, and shameful. That is why I’m not voting for Obama.

Think of it. Howard Dean was done in with a simple yeeeehaawwww not that long ago, and here we are now (temporarily) stuck with the incompetent Omygodnobama who has a laundry list of shady associations and a questionable background. Shaking my head.

I will not vote for Obama under any circumstances.

NOBAMA.

That just goes to show how deceitful Obama and his camp are they had their little hit job on the Jews and once it was know and talked about it gets scrubbed.

Why have such a thing on your website in the first place, it always happens that way once some thing negative on the Obama site is discussed and people become aware of it swoosh it goes never to be seen again, just like the Black Panther link.

How in all good sense can people vote for this man, cant they see that their is something scary about these people why don’t we have problems of all these kind of strange links that disappear on other candidates sites?

I can’t imagine how anyone can change their minds because of Hillary’s speech.

I have written over and over, this is not about Hillary – it is about Obama.

I do not share his values and beliefs. I sincerely believe Michelle and him are very racists.

I believe that a clear signal of things to come is the reinstatement of Father Pleger to Saint Sabrina with no restrictions.

Listen, Obama, Michelle, Wright, F. Pleger, Ayers, Farrakan, etc. will have free reign on saying anti-white statements. But, the reverse – whites best not dare say one word. Very frightening what I see coming.

Better wake-up America – this is some really bad stuff coming our way.

Also, read a story that if Obama is elected the stock market will fail due to his extreme tax increases – I have not researched but worth investigating.

Personal ties to Obama also were evident in some pork dispensed by his political allies. The Chicago-based Muntu Dance Theatre received a $4.5 million grant to help pay for a $10 million cultural center.

Obama’s mentor in Springfield, state Sen. Emil Jones (D-Chicago), sponsored the grant. And at the time $2.25 million of the grant was disbursed, Obama’s wife, Michelle, sat on the non-profit dance group’s board.

Obama said in the interview that at the time of the award in 2003 his wife wasn’t a board member, though tax returns of the charity indicate she sat on the board in 2002 and 2003. Jones’ spokeswoman said Michelle Obama did not lobby him for the funds.

Interesting is it not!!!!

http://www.obama-wire.com/

We all know Obama is a sock puppet. I could never vote for him but I just don’t want to damage Hillary’s chances to run in 2012 by voting for McCain. If Obama loses the election the Obots, media, troll bloggers (currently trying to make nice) will BLAME HILLARY. No matter what. BLAME HILLARY. Obama gets a boil on his ass. BLAME HILLARY. Michelle divorces Obama and writes a Kiss and Tell. BLAME HILLARY. Obama gets eaten by a plague of frogs. BLAME HILLARY. The sock puppet faded and frayed, shrinks and sputters into oblivion. BLAME HILLARY. Aliens abduct him and pull out his nose hairs. BLAME HILLARY. Chime in.

Thanks for the alert Uppity! I went over to that site and read for myself how my name was attached to a post I NEVER wrote! I guess these Obamaphiles will go to any length to drive a wedge between us. It will not happen. I have seen a few other examples of this on other sites. This is not the first time my name was used by an Obamabot to make a point for their “Man”! I am happy to see that you among others, were not fooled. This is just another reason why “This Man” will not support Obama or any other Bot running for office!
I am no Linfar! I stand by “EVERYTHING” I have written and I will not be intimidated into compliance! But it is funny that “Someone” chose to use my name and not some accomplished wordsmith. I guess I am starting to ruffle some feathers on my end!

To ProudMilitaryMom: Honestly… I had heard about this phenomenon, but I didn’t believe it could actually be true. It had to be some wacky internet rumor. Surely, Snopes would tell me the truth, and I could just giggle about the gullibility of anyone who could believe this level of hatred for Obama really existed. I guess I was mistaken. Reading this post and the comments was a real eye-opener. /end light-hearted teasing.

But, why? Why would any group of Democrats worthy of being called Democrats behave in such a manner? Why would any person act like this, regardless of political affiliation? I’ve seen disappointment and even grief when a favorite candidate lost, but this site, and the folks here who spew such anger and hate are beyond anything I’ve ever seen. Just incredible.

*sigh*

To Larry: I used to read your thoughtful posts across the internet, and always found something new to learn. The only explanation I can come up with for this level of vitriol is that Obama must have struck a very sensitive nerve in you, and you are lashing out because it is just too painful not to. And, you have your followers who reinforce you in this, perhaps because that same nerve was struck in them. There is something to be said, I suppose, for sharing the pain to try to lessen it.

See, I was never a Hillary-hater. I wasn’t her biggest fan, either. If she had won, I would have gladly supported her with time and money. Obama wasn’t even my second choice in candidates. But, he’s the guy who got the nod, regardless of whether you think it is right, wrong, fair, unfair, or anything in between. It doesn’t look likely that this will change, either.

And, he’s all that stands between us and four more years of tyranny. This beloved country of mine and yours cannot withstand too many more assaults before it won’t be recognizable as “America – Home of the Free, Land of the Brave ” anymore.

We all make choices. In this election, we can choose Obama or McCain. That’s it. Those are our choices. I see it as a choice between two possible futures – one is dark and cloudy, full of fear and hate. The other has a chance, if we all work together to make it happen, of at least being brighter than the last seven years have been.

I know what future I will choose. I’ll choose a future that gives my grandchildren hope, and a chance for a better tomorrow.

Larry, if you can see your way clear to rachet down the anger and hate a bit, and perhaps allow tempers to cool off, the energy you have gathered here could be a powerful force against McCain.

It looks like that same nonsense is going on over at Taylor Marsh. I’m not surprised. Perhaps they think they are following Hillary’s advice by supporting Obama now. If people are that fickle, they should just throw in the towel. No point to having supporters that go bipolar at the drop of a hat. I am a tremendous Hillary supporter, but for the life of me I cannot support that fraud Obama and his horrible friends. I just cannot do it with a good conscience. And I question the validity and loyalty of those who would suddenly support someone who they absolutely detested the day before. That doesn’t show any intestinal fortitude. Looks like a major case of ADD – Absolutely Deranged Disorder.

We all know Obama is a sock puppet. I could never vote for him but I just don’t want to damage Hillary’s chances to run in 2012 by voting for McCain. If Obama loses the election the Obots, media, troll bloggers (currently trying to make nice) will BLAME HILLARY. No matter what. BLAME HILLARY. Obama gets a boil on his ass. BLAME HILLARY. Michelle divorces Obama and writes a Kiss and Tell. BLAME HILLARY. Obama gets eaten by a plague of frogs. BLAME HILLARY. The sock puppet faded and frayed, shrinks and sputters into oblivion. BLAME HILLARY. Aliens abduct him and pull out his nose hairs. BLAME HILLARY. Chime in.

I will NEVER vote for Nobama. He is clearly a lightweight with dangerous associates and financial backers. I’m programming/praying for the s*it to hit the fan for him before the convention. He is so arrogant I can see him bringing himself down. Hillary was forced to appease the creep, but she did not release her delegates so there is still hope. If the farce continues, however, I will vote for McCain, no matter how much it pains me to do so because we at least know his record. Like- he actually HAS one, unlike dear, incompetent, misogynist Barry. I am an Independent who has always voted Dem., but they have outraged me this year. I will not forget or forgive. I will not fall in line w/their evil plan or “anointed” candidate. The hell with them! I actually research the candidates’ records & specific proposals before I choose one. Nobama has no specifics that I have heard of, and his supporters apparently like it that way. I support Hillary because she has a plan and can articulate it, any time, any place. And no, Sen. Obama & your ugly trolls- “uh, uh, uh, uh, uh…” is not remotely related to being a good or articulate speaker. And by the way- plagiarism is stealing. Set the tone for whole business, though, didn’t it? Color me DISGUSTED WITH THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

We’ve all heard Obama say over and over “We can not have another 4 years of George Bush failed policies blah blah blah”. I agree. I do however find it odd that one of Obamas biggest fundraisers was also one of Bush’ biggest fundraisers in Chicago.

“Rezko has had ties to each of those politicians in some fashion over the years, from a once-close relationship with Obama, a first-term U.S. senator, to co-hosting a $3.8 million Chicago fundraiser in 2003 for President Bush. Lt. Gov. Patrick Quinn also received contributions from Rezko’s former development company”

What side is Rezko on? What side is Bush on ? What side is Obama on? Do you think it’s your side?

According to Newton’s Law of Gravity, what goes up must come down.

Well! Hillary has just converted her potential energy into latent energy.

This construes that Hillary latent energy is there and can be converted into potential energy instantly at the tip of a finger.

If this presidential nominee election has violated the rules and bylaws of the Constitution of the Democratic Party, this election must be declared null and void or Obama must be disqualified and Hillary must be reinstated as the Democratic presumptive nominee.

Otherwise Obama and his sycophants can expect civil disobedience from the voters- bosses.

This is what they have been counting on all along TRH. The DNC, Obama’s campaign and his enablers all are banking on the collective amnesia of the American People. We knew this was going to happen. This is why we can never really have change in this country.
The only real way to “Change” our corrupt system of Government is to rise up and demand that change. The only way that can happen is if we all stand by our convictions and not fall in line because someone asked us to. I am a Hillary supporter! But I will do as she has asked after all I’ve learned about Obama! How could I then turn to my children, my wife and say that all I’ve been telling them about Obama may be true, But Hillary told me to back him so I guess I will shut the F*** up and fall into line? How can I then post anything positive about Obama after all I’ve learned about him? No, I can not do that!
What many of these people seem to forget is, Hillary is a politician. This is Her path not mine. She did what she had to do to fight another day. I on the other hand am not a politician. I am a citizen of these United States! I do not have to sit at a table with these people. I do not have to work with them. What I am obligated to do as a citizen is to educate those that are lost. If they choose to listen, fine. If not, so be it. but I will not be a hypocrite and suddenly disregard all I have said and all I have written because Hillary asked me to. I am saddened she has chosen to suspend her campaign. I still believe she is the best hope we have to right the wrongs of the Bush years. I admire her and I respect her1 But I am not her tool! I will not do as I am being told to do simply to bring harmony to the Democratic Party! Who will I vote for? I do not know at this moment nut what I can tell you is this…..IT WILL NOT BE OBAMA!

is it true that obama is the love child of howard dean and donkey brazille ? i think they are having another affair and maybe some reporter can ask him….and is it true that michelle obama used to be a man and amember of the watusi tribe in africa, just asking.

I’m blown away by people calling those that cannot support McCain “fickle” and worse. I would think that turning your support to McCain, a republican, would be pretty fickle imho. I have no idea what might happen with Obama’s many skeletons, before August. I just find it so unsettling that people are jumping over to make McCain some sort of savior right now.. for all the talk of seeing how this plays out until the convention, why are people trying to help McCain? Frankly I see this rush to McCain’s side as giving up on Hillary. Hillary has asked that we help a Democrat get elected and suddenly people are born-again Republicans? Do you ever wonder how many GOP operatives might be inspiring that righteous anger amongst us?

Sad to see how quickly the division takes hold now with the regulars here at NQ and Taylor Marsh, because we all don’t agree how to proceed without Hillary. Perhaps I’m seeing more clearly about everything without the us vs. them dynamic anymore. It’s just a different “us” vs. a different “them” now.

As a regular commenter here who has earned some respect, and who has given out much support to other Hillary supporters, it just breaks my heart to see new battle lines being drawn, this time with myself on the wrong side.

I had an ephiphany yesterday regarding all of this. I talked to my adult stepson. He supports Obama, but would not be considered a bot. I jokingly asked him who he would be voting for and he looked at me as if I were insane. He said no way in hell would he vote for McCain, and brought up the very things that I cannot stomach about him. He then said that he was back and forth between Hillary and Obama, but said in all honestly that if Hillary was the nominee he’d have totally supported her. And it was like.. ‘duh, of course I’d support the Democrat!’

He also told me that in all his places online, and amongst his friends, he recognized the fervent Ron Paul supports overnight become raging assholes supporting Obama. He said it was like it wasn’t the candidate that mattered to these guys, it was abusing people online as part of some sick fraternity.

My point is that not everyone that supports Obama is an asshole, and not everyone that supports Hillary or McCain is a saint.

Bottom line… the best times in my life were during a Democratic presidency, and the worst… well, those would be the past 7, with Bush. Why in the HELL would I vote for a man that kisses and hugs Bush, fawns all over him, and will absolutely continue the PNAC march to reshape the Middle East.

I refuse to lift a finger for McCain. Why should he get my vote? Truly.. if I want to make a statement, I will register Independent. But I’m just not willing to risk a never ending war in the Middle East to send a message to Howard Dean.

All I know is that it made me sick to see the hateful things written about Hillary by people who didn’t know her, and I’ve watched NQ slide into a place where people call Obama and his wife “pigs” on a regular basis. When people here degenerated into rude comments about Obama and his wife’s appearance, I stood up and spoke up against it. When an overzealous commenter got racist, I called them out. I won’t cross that line, and I don’t want to spend any more time in a place that inspires that.

If that makes me an asshole. So be it. If I’m not welcome here anymore, fine.

This Democrat who supported Sen. Clinton and always will, WILL NEVER VOTE FOR OBAMA EVER !!! Not even if he picks her for V.P. You are so right, he is the DNC’S elected candidate not the people’s. I will soon be a registered Independent. This election is no longer about political party. It must be about who is the most qualified to lead our country in these troubling times. That person is not Obama. Obama will just bring all of that into our White House. It is mind boggling how so many people let the media brainwash them, don’t they have a mind of there own. Obama forgets one thing, most bitter people who cling to their guns and religion can not be bought or brainwashed. We still have our dignity and we can think for ourselves.

Stockholm syndrome is a psychological response sometimes seen in an abducted hostage, in which the hostage shows signs of loyalty to the hostage-taker, regardless of the danger (or at least risk) in which the hostage has been placed.

I suppose It is some sort of compliment Uppity, to have these people single some of us out that way. I really don’t give a Rat’s poop what they think of me, but I do not like my name being used to post some Obama props!
I will not waste my time defending myself against these idiots. All they have done is to strengthen this Dragon’s resolve. I will call them out when I find it, and I will defend anyone here that has been wronged.

Maybe I should put up a PayPal and charge licensing fee’s. What do you think Uppity? LMAO!

I’m having trouble posting a comment. It keeps saying it’s a double post and I don’t see it. I have refreshed over and over.

Why????

Thank goodness I could come to this blog and have faith that there are people who aren’t morphing into Obamabots just because the DNC has crowned Obama king. He was a race-baiting arrogant schmuck last week and he will remain a race-baiting schmuck for the rest of his political career. He’s an opportunist who used anyone who was willing to stick money in his pocket to get elected. Why should I vote for him now? The DNC could rot for all I care and they can have their empty suit candidate.

Taylor Marsh and the rest of those who are suddenly supporting Obama sound like a bunch of hypocrites…the sudden love for Obama is a joke.

Well. Reading through the responses to my comment make it clear. I’m done with NoQuarter. Sad, because I respect the hard work done here during the primary.. but frankly it’s morphing into a strange pro-McCain site.

The fact that so many here and at TM are willing to turn against people so quickly makes me believe this place is not welcome to me anymore. Frankly, y’all are starting to sound just like the Nader supporters all over the progressive sites in 2000, that were convinced that Gore was no better than Bush.

Hey, I’m respecting Hillary’s wishes. For me, it WAS about Hillary. And I’m waiting until after August to throw my support to anyone. The country and the world is fucked up beyond reason right now, and it wasn’t a Democrat who did it.

Anyone who does not agree with you is now an “Obamabot”, now I can see how narrow-minded we must look to people that drop in here. Wow.

Why can’t I post here.

Wow, you people are pathetic. Get over it. The Clinton monarchy is dead.

Sorry, but she did lose. She ran an awful campaign in many ways, but still ran tough until the end. The reality, though, is that she did in fact lose. Counting the votes in a rogue primary in which there is only one name on the ballot is not really winning. It just isn’t. It was a close race, but she lost.

Hello,

I’m a lifelong democrat and Obama supporter. If Hillary would have won the nomination I would have had no problem voting for her. She’s been someone I public life I’ve admired for years. As someone who saw Bush get re-elected I understand how hard it is to see your candidate lose.

But there’s far too much at stake in this election. A vote for John McCain would be a vote against everything Hillary Clinton has fought for, it would be a vote against women’s rights , against national healthcare (Hillary’s most passionate policy objective). It’s a vote to keep my cousin in Iraq, away from his children. It’s a vote to keep Americans under surveillence.

I ask all of you to please reconsider for the sake of Hillary Clinton’s legacy and for the sake of our country.

Thanks

By every objective standard you are lost, confused and misinformed. That fact that she was a credible candidate at all was because of her husband. That fact is correct, unpleasant though it may be, absent a blue dress Hillary would not be in the US Senate and not a candidate for President. Nepotism and dynasty are what this campaign was about. Not feminism. Not breaking barriers. She lost because she had no soul, no purpose other than raw, naked ambition fused with a sense of entitlement.

I completely understand that if some people prefer McCain over Obama, and I understand preferring Clinton over Obama, but I don’t much understand Clinton supporters preferring McCain. On matters of governance, there is very little difference between Clinton and Obama, but a world of difference between Clinton and McCain; on what issues does McCain represent a rational alternative to Clinton dropping out, as opposed to Obama?

If it is merely hatred of Obama as a person because he defeated Clinton in the primary, then it is hard to describe such behavior as anything but irrational. Sitting out the election is one thing, but if you are a thinking Democrat who supports Clinton on the issues, as opposed to a knee-jerk Kool-Aide drinking hack, Obama is clearly preferable to McCain. It is interesting to see such people describe Obama supporters as “Obots” when they are clearly engaging in that sort of groupthink themselves.

Here’s what confuses me: from what I’m reading, most of you here believe Obama is terrible in many ways, yet you watched your candidate give a speech endorsing and lavishing praise on him.

Does Clinton believe what she said in her speech? If yes, and you have so much regard for her, isn’t it logical that would affect the outlook of many of her supporters?

If no, that means she lied in her speech. Therefore, shouldn’t you be holding Hillary Clinton partially responsible for promoting “Cult Aide”?

If she is the remarkable person you say she is – and if Obama is the threat to democracy you all think he is – shouldn’t she have stuck to her principles and stated she was unable to support him?

Why is Clinton given a pass on a politically disingenuous act but not Obama? Why the different standards?

I am genuinely curious about this.

Thanks in advance for your responses.

I supported Obama from Super Tuesday on, once the Clintons began to use racist innuendo, and guilt by association (still alive and well in many of these unfortunate comments). Had Obama lost I would have undoubtedly been as bereft and angry as so many of Sen. Clinton’s suporters are now. It doesn’t surprise me there are some who cannot get past their dissapointment, but it does surprise me that some are committed to defeating Obama in November.

To them I would say, ‘If you feel entitled to your spite, have at it. But picture the America you’re working for. At best, John McCain in the White House, and gridlock with a Democratic Congress, and at worst, greater budget deficits pushed onto the backs of our children, an endless war in Iraq (and possibly Iran) and gasoline still more than $4 a gallon, no reform of the campaign and electoral process, and more reactionary Supreme Court justices – for starters.

If that doesn’t give you pause between now and November, if undermining the Obama candidacy is the best you can do, then you were never a Democrat in the first place.

Goodbye, good riddance, good luck.

Does Clinton believe what she said in her speech? If yes, and you have so much regard for her, isn’t it logical that would affect the outlook of many of her supporters?

This is so easy I’m almost embarrassed to respond, but I will. Look it’s entirely possible to have extreme high regard for your candidate of choice, but you know-still be able to think for yourself. Really, you o-bots are just as bad as shrub’s sycophant’s.

You people are nuts, and frankly some of the hateful stuff I’m reading here casts serious doubt on your commitment to the principles the Clintons have long fought for.

What I can’t understand is that if you like Hilary so much, why don’t you honor her wishes and support the Democratic candidate? If you don’t think universal health care, protecting a woman’s right to choose, sensible energy policy, increased spending on education, an engaged and realist foreign policy, a fairer tax system, etc. are more important than your hurt feelings because your candidate lost a tight and hard-fought race, then you’re no better than the Naderites that helped us get to this sorry state in the first place.

You people are nuts, and frankly some of the hateful stuff I’m reading here casts serious doubt on your commitment to the principles the Clintons have long fought for.

Funny how you o-bots can completely ignore the vicious hateful rhetoric you used against Senator Clinton. But I guess that is part of the definition of being an o-bot.

HOLY SHIT!!!! Is Barky stepping down soon, well something must be up because we’re being invaded by the ObamaPod people. Christ…I’m sure Larry is happy, ’cause baby needs a new pair of shoes. I’ve never seen the site so infested with lackies. This is fun.

you people really do need a life. a hobby won’t hurt either.

The comments here are worse than the article. If Clinton really embodied all that you believe, then I guess you must be a cyncical, say-anything, scruples-free person.

Clinton LOST the election, PERIOD. Even if you counted the disqualified FL and MI contests (the disqualification something Clinton, Penn, and Ickes endorsed from “day one”), guess what? Obama still wins! The nomination is a battle for delegates, everyone knew that. The only conceivable way Clinton “wins” the popular vote is by not giving Obama any of the MI “uncommitted” and by ignoring the four caucus states who don’t report total numbers.

You Clinton dead-enders are a disgrace to both your party and the nation. Candidates lose, that’s what elections are for. Did any of you cry over the losses of Bill Bradley, Paul Tsongas, or John Edwards?

Check out Time magazine today. Clinton lost the womens vote for crying out loud. Maybe those women saw no feminist in Clinton. Her entire career was a model of unfeminism: her entire experience argument is derivative of her husband’s, a serial sexual predator who she enabled all of these years. Had she divorced him before her Senate run and went back to “Rodham” I may have had an ounce of respect for her.

Obama did nothing wrong but run an excellent campaign. He took numerous negatives from Clinton (”young”, “kid”, “fairy tale”, “Jesse Jackson”, “as far as I know”, the Kenyan native dress photo, to name just a few). But he stuck to his positive message and won FAIR and SQUARE.

Get over it.

It amazes me that Clinton supporters can insist that she somehow deserves the nomination – despite Obama’s double-digit lead in national polls of Dems and the fact that he won more states, delegates, supers and yes, raw votes …

… but we’re the cultists?

I trust that the overwhelming majority of Clinton’s supporters, after the dust settles and some of the hurt feelings from a tough campaign are soothed, are going to vote for Obama in the fall. The rest are either GOP trolls or people so committed to identity politics that nothing Obama could do short of ceding the nomination would satisfy them.

You want to live in some fantasyland where Obama “stole” the nomination? You want to sit out or vote for McCain in the fall? Be my guest.

Hey guys, let the Obama trolls talk to themselves. If there is no response or exhange with them it will get tiring for them. You don’t want this site taken over like MyDD and they are beginning to come here in droves.

LET’S NOT FEED THE TROLLS.

That’s right, Yo, you’ve lost, so why not concede by refusing to debate those who you disagree with? After all, what is a refusal to debate those you disagree with or a to pretend that name-calling is the same as making an argument but an admission of defeat?

MarcV | velitrae@hotmail.com | IP: 71.196.120.13

Yes, nice post Mr. Yo: simply ignore those who list the inconvenient truths about your candidate. Obama won and deserved to win the nomination. Sane people will also believe he deserves to win the presidency and will support him. Others like you should just stay in your deluded fantasy world.
