They knew. He got a waiver. He also phone-banked in MI to get out the vote for undecided.

No dude that was on the pledge. In the rules, campaigning includes running ads. Please go read those rules. They’re at TalkLeft.

I saw the T shirt put out by Obama supporters with a picture of Hillary and “HO” right next to her name.

Frankly I would not be shocked if Hillary became an Independent. Now DNC owes her $$ along with other funding. Would also not be surprised if Obama gets an AA to run against her in next senate run so as to drum her out of the party.

Folks, as Obama likes to say…you ain’t see nothin’ yet. Wait ’till I get Murdoch’s endorsement.

Joe Madison is a frequent guest on Lou Dobbs. Dobbs would have called Madison on his comment in a heartbeat.

Joe Madison is usually pretty level headed and shows a willingness to be unPC. I think like Tavis Smilley he is catching hell for not being absolutely totally in the bag for Obama from some of the shriller voices in the AA community. Smilley as a Clinton supporter and fellow Hoosier took a break from talk radio. The last time I caught Madison on Dobbs, the strain and wear and tear was starting to show.

Pelosi and Reid have been absolute disasters. They sold out the party to make nice with BushCo so they could push the hated near treasonous McCain/Kennedy “Comprehensive Immigration Reform” atrocity. Even after it failed they have tried numerous undemocratic tactics to have it passed piecemeal. Each time envoking massive public outrage. Now Pelosi’s leadership polls as bad or worse than Dubya.

Under Pelosi the Hispanic Caucus has been allowed to run wild making their own throughly dishonest race baiting/hustling allegations.

Thanks for saying it Mr. Murder.

Senator Spector was the one to profer the single bullet theory, according to what I have read on the subject.

I agree that BO’s highjacking of the memorial holiday is at best short sited and at worst a indication of what is to come.

If BO had an ounce of respect for the JFK, Bobby Kennedy and all the fine souls we on honor with the observance of Memorial Day, he might have fired the person who sent out the / escalated the smear in public.

BO is not qualified.

I would bet the farm that Pelosi pre-emptively declares BO as the winner next week. His donors at the SF fundraiser where he made his “clinging to guns and religion” gaffe, are in the Speaker’s district if I’m not mistaken. So the big spenders who applauded his comments in SF are the same folks who have her on speed dial.
As I’ve always replied when my activist mother (who goes back to the McGovern campaign, by the way) tells me to write my congresscritter. “Ma, they only listen to those who write them checks, the bigger the check, the better they listen.”

Scorched earth is right. They now want to drive her out of the Senate.

What is most appalling to me is that they can see for themselves just what this is doing to the Democratic Party. Yet, they do not care.

They are intent upon obliterating her.

You can count on me to do that I cannot wait until he is destroyed. I have never hated a Politician like this in my life. He’s a dirtball who NEEDS to be stopped.

Link to a good read about the 1980 democratic campaign and the interesting parallels to 2008

What the senator from Dewars, as I affectionately call Teddy, forgets is that he fought the same kind of fight for the same reasons as HRC.
