“Democratic National Committee member Jason Rae, a Marquette University student and super delegate, gave his support to Obama the day after Wisconsin ‘s primary, citing Obama ‘s popularity among Wisconsin college students.”

Lord help us.

Why don’t these scum bags go back under the slimy rock they crwaled out from…

yes the kids today are clueless to all this crap..and who the cast of characters are who are supporting Obama..but their day is coming!!

While the Obamabrats scream about Bill ..they are cheering their own scum bags!

Where is Gary Condit?? watch out obamabrats..is he your next superdelegate..or Obama endorser??

How about typing (or writing) HRC or Hilllary or any combination of the name on the ballot in the event that Barack becomes the dem nominee? That way, “they”, (howard Dean et.al.) will be shocked if Hillary gets more votes than Barack and/or McCain.

SOMEone SOMEwhere has a tape, a pictire or an affidavit that will derail him. Rove probably has it in a filing cabinet drawer.

I’ve been suspicious of the Obama parade from the beginning – it’s been my experience that ‘attractive’ Democrats whom the media fawns over and regard as safe can usually trace their roots back to the Democratic Leadership Council, otherwise known as the Republican wing of the Democratic Party.

Obama’s no easy case, though. There are messages in the smoke.

Alexander Cockburn, as left as left can be, has written a couple of pieces on Obama. This was before the media discovered him. That’s a recent phenomenon.

Here’s Cockburn:

It’s depressing to think that we’ll have to endure Obamaspeak for months, if not years to come: a pulp of boosterism about the American dream, interspersed with homilies about “putting factionalism and party divisions behind us and moving on.” I used to think Sen. Joe Lieberman was the man whose words I’d least like to be force fed top volume if I was chained next to a loudspeaker in Camp Gitmo, but I think Obama, who picked Lieberman as his mentor when he first entered the U.S. Senate, is worse. I’ve never heard a politician so desperate not to offend conventional elite opinion while pretending to be fearless and forthright.

That’s right – Joe Lieberman is Obama’s mentor, and Lieberman brags that Obama picked him, not the opposite.

Cockburn also notes that Obama, around the time that Murtha was making a stink about Iraq, spoke before the elite of the Council on Foreign Relations.

Democrats fled Murtha, few with more transparent calculation than Obama who voyaged to the Council on Foreign Relations on November 22, there to ladle out to the assembled elites such balderdash as “The President could take the politics out of Iraq once and for all if he would simply go on television and say to the American people ‘Yes, we made mistakes’”, or “we need to focus our attention on how to reduce the U.S. military footprint in Iraq. Notice that I say ‘reduce,’ and not ‘fully withdraw’”, or “2006 should be the year that the various Iraqi factions must arrive at a fair political accommodation to defeat the insurgency; and , the Administration must make available to Congress critical information on reality-based benchmarks that will help us succeed in Iraq.”

Smooth as syrup. There’s a wave of discontent int his country, voiced in the November elections, that we want out of Iraq – no redeployment or scaleback, but o-u-t. No worthy politician can ignore this. But the war from the beginning has been an elite undertaking with unstated objectives. Americans have only been cajoled and frightened into following, and are seeing more clearly now.

It is going to take a politician of considerable skill to 1) heed to public demand to get out, and 2) keep us in. The media, subservient to power as always, will glom on to any politician who can serve those objectives. So, for now, Obama is their man.

[Obama] lobbed up the first signal flare during the run-up to his 2004 senate race, when his name began to feature on Democratic Leadership Council literature as one of the hundred Democratic leaders to watch.

The DLC doesn’t necessarily pre-select candidates, but they do keep an eye out for possibilities. Obama has been on their watch-list for some time. Now that they see his sex appeal, they may rally behind him. He could be Hillary without the polarizing effect, a real possibility to hold the office.

Obama has voted to close filibuster on both of Bush’s Supreme Court selections, to re-up the Patriot Act, for “tort reform”. He’s sent up plenty of signals that he could be Republican-lite enough to be ‘electable’ – code word for no threat to power.

Obama is one of those politicians whom journalists like to decorate with words as “adroit” or “politically adept” because you can actually see him trimming to the wind, the way you see a conjuror of moderate skill shove the rabbit back up his sleeve. Above all he is concerned with the task of reassuring the masters of the Democratic Party, and beyond that, the politico-corporate establishment, that he is safe. Whatever bomb might have been in his head has long since been dis-armed. He’s never going to blow up in the face of anyone of consequence.

There’ll be other candidates testing the wind. Vilsack, another DLC guy, might catch on. Anyone of the left need not apply – Feingold has already ascertained that there is no support among those who matter for a man who really would get us out of Iraq, who really would change our health care system, who really cares about campaign finance reform. We’re pretty much stuck with the DLC, sex appeal, and no substance.

Obama had his fingers stuck in the wind as always. He bends to every breeze, as soon as he identifies it as coming from a career-threatening quarter. This man is no leader.

The guy is a junior in college and never voted? Not even in a local election? Surely he is registered to vote and a Democrat. This is really bizarre if true.

Who does he know if true, how would Howard Dean even know that he existed?

Sheesh…

Takes the wind out of the laughter, but does have value in driving the point home.

It’s a model taken from our own constitution, the House and the Senate. The House is supposed to be proportional representation, while the Senate is supposed to be a check against what our founding fathers called “tyanny of the masses[/majority]“, lest they be falsely taken by a charismatic character; which in turn was a borrowed concept from British houses of Lords and Commons.

It doesn’t really work if party bosses are delegating the professional class so as to conform to their personal favorite faction of the masses.

How does this concept work in the actual U.S. Senate?

In the words of Scottish poet Robert Burns, “The best-laid schemes of mice and men / Gang aft a-gley [often go astray]”

Or in other words, the inexperienced Obama is not only a Senator (where he did little to add to his experience), but a POTUS candidate as well.
