That's really interesting. BO definitely doesn't agree with "Honesty is the best policy." And the point on Terri Schaivo is well-taken. I wonder if the Clinton campaign might think that was too much of a touchy subject, because I was thinking of suggesting it via www.hillaryclinton.com. I've heard that Oregonians do pride themselves on independence. But is it, for some groups, the kind of independence that sometimes drives one to join the bandwagon that believes they're "thinking differently"? At any rate, this is all very valuable info, and I'll add it to my file - thanks! Thanks, Bubba. That’s really interesting.

And that' a great letter. I'm going to create a document for these, and keep on looking into what makes Oregon latte liberals tick. The fact that he's a sexist pig seems to resonate with many women, and men, across the country. An on-the-money post like this can definitely change people's minds from Barama to Hillary, especially if sexism is their hot-button issue! Thanks so much, Margaret. And that’ a great letter.

"How can she be losing if she keeps winning?" Would make a great t-shirt or bumper sticker. Whoever thought something so ridiculous could make so much sense.

I'm deeply offended that he would visit our state before our voting issues have been resolved given he and his supporters (yes Donna Brazille that'd be you) have blocked our right to have our votes counted as legally certified by our Secretary of State. Obama even voluntarily asked to have his name removed from our ballots even though he only agreed with others simply not to campaign here. Michigan will go to McCain if Obama is on the ticket. We won't forget how he and his DNC supporters have tried to violate our civil rights!! Thanks for this blog and I loved the Low Brow video.

How can the SD justify giving, yes giving, this nomination to BO after his campaign has virtually divided the Democratic party in two by racking up delegates in red caucus states and hijacking the AA vote by virtue of his skin color? And how is this “change” and “unity” going to win the presidency? They must be thinking the Republican brand is so badly damaged they could put another Alfred E. Neuman in the White House and operate the country from the comfort of their living rooms. If there’s one thing we should have learned by now is that if you’re baffled by a completely illogical situation, the answer always boils down to money, and therefore, power. Could it be that Hillary and Bill won’t play the puppet game, they don’t need the money, and they really do care about this country and its citizens? Rat boat indeed.

Great commentary on The Media, the DNC numbers game, how people have warmed up to Hillary as she and they got better, and the rats with 'herd' mentality. You called it.

His voters won't vote for Hillary but hers will vote for him. New polls show the opposite. 2. He felt if he won the nomination he wouldn't have to name her but if she won she would have to name him on the ticket. Not true now. It appears he is doomed unless he names her and can attract her voters that he mocked and insulted. He acted like he could win with out whites, women, seniors, hispanics, asians, blue collar workers and the less educated. What fool would have made those assumptions? 3. He could transcend race...no need to go there 4. He could just forget about getting the nomination and go straight to the General Election and pretend he has it wrapped up and force Clinton to drop out. Oops, had to go to WV. 5. His speech on race was all that was needed to make people forget about Rev Wright. 6. that women would not mind if he used sexist terms and insulted women, seniors, and those who were not the wealthy elite numbskulls. OOPS....A really BIG OOPS. 7. A speech is the same thing as actually doing something. And when questioned about anything, just respond that you gave a speech about that. Guess he can't back away from that because that is all he has...a speech. 8. He has brought so many new voters into the race that....they don't vote for him? Do I understand the logic the Obamaloons use? Where are all these voters? 9. People don't care about his associates who are suspected of strange terrorist ties....so Obama just lies about his associations because he can't explain 10. It is perfectly alright to insult groups of people whom you will need to win in the General Election...OOPS I guess Obama has some work to do to fool those groups to support Obama for the GE.
