6 more weeks of Rev. Wright and Rezco

[quinnox]

Oh man, I am giddy right now.

Obama is going to lose in a titanic blowout in Pennsylvania, then the rest of the states will fall like dominoes to Hillary.

Hillary's momentum will carry on through to the convention.

You know this is a very good thing. I'm afraid Obama supporters are going to start hearing the fat lady singing louder and louder as the weeks go by!

1. He's already extinguishing the flames.

[FrenchieCat]

2. Try not to get too excited........

because your wish is not this country's command; just yours.

If Rev. Wright is Obama's downfall, Hillary loses in the GE. Simple as that. Take my word.

[Pisces]

3. And she will lose in the GE because African Americans and morally conscious

voters will not vote for her. Me included. I will abstain. Good luck trying to win without the democratic base.

[VolcanoJen]

32. This is actually quite true.

I work in a remarkably diverse workplace, and am honored to do so. It's one of the things I love so much about my job. I do think that many Americans have not been exposed to the political opinions of minority citizens on a daily basis.

All I'm hearing in the break room is "I'll be writing in Barack Obama and voting the rest of the ticket come November." I don't agree with this sentiment, but it's growing.

[Hepburn]

51. If Hillary is the nominee, I will abstain from voting.

I made an agreement with my best male pal who is a Reagan Republican. He HATES McCain and he hates Hillary. On this we both agree. We both will vote Obama, but if Hillary gets the nomination, we both abstain.

We will vote for the other races and the ballot measures, but we will both skip voting for the top of the ticket.

I have voted in every election...large or small...since I turned 21 years old (voting age back then). I have always voted Democratic for the top of the ticket in all of these elections.

If Hillary can turn off a partisan and loyal Dem like me, I can imagine what she will do to others. Obama is the ONLY hope we have to beat McCain and the Hillary supporters need to deal with reality and stop the bullshit and start doing some damage control for the sake of the party. Put it and NOT Hillary first.

BTW: I am a former Edwards supporter who switched to Obama because IMO Hillary is bad news. She can NEVER win.

[polichick]

4. You know that, even if she won the rest, she can't overcome Obama's lead...

...without the superdelegates crowning her???

[catnhatnh]

5. Don't tell me, let me guess.....

...Hilliary saw her shadow?

[Kittycat]

6. If we're going to start judging on Guilt by Association - then HRC is already done.

Well, she is already done. She simply can't catch obama. And in the process, he's already putting out the fires.

What I find incredibly disturbing - is HRC supporters glee in trying to destroy a very promising democrat. You all sound more and more like Bush3 every day. It's very disturbing, but I will be glad when you're finally laid to rest.

[blm]

33. Bushes didn't care if they destroyed the GOP and Clintons are the same about Dem party.

If the party isn't there serving THEIR agenda, they will undermine it in favor of BushInc.

[Kierkegaard]

7. Damn.

For a second there, I thought I had wandered into FreakRepublic by mistake. Good luck with that psychosis thing.

[wndycty]

8. Did you see what the Tribune had to say?

-snip-
U.S. Sen. Barack Obama waited 16 months to attempt the exorcism. But when he finally sat down with the Tribune editorial board Friday, Obama offered a lengthy and, to us, plausible explanation for the presence of now-indicted businessman Tony Rezko in his personal and political lives.

The most remarkable facet of Obama's 92-minute discussion was that, at the outset, he pledged to answer every question the three dozen Tribune journalists crammed into the room would put to him. And he did.
-snip-

When we endorsed Obama for the Democratic presidential nomination Jan. 27, we said we had formed our opinions of him during 12 years of scrutiny. We concluded that the professional judgment and personal decency with which he has managed himself and his ambition distinguish him.

Nothing Obama said in our editorial board room Friday diminishes that verdict.

Its got to suck for you to read that!

[Kittycat]

13. Rock On! Gobama!!!

[Window]

23. Wonderful news!!

Thanks for sharing.

[VolcanoJen]

34. I would have expected nothing less.

Excellent, Senator Obama.

[Rageneau]

44. This is from a paper that had already endorsed him -- IOW, a pro-Obama paper.

[dchill]

9. Schadenfreude.

[Hawkeye-X]

10. Rezko is Clinton's problem now, not Obama's

Google "Individual H".

Hawkeye-X

[VolcanoJen]

38. Good lord, he's an unattractive fella

Gack!!!!!!! The eyebrows!!!!!!

[KittyWampus]

11. He was NEVER going to win PA & Hillary's just lucky she can rely on a pre-existing machine

[hfojvt]

12. you mean Punxatawney Sean saw his shadow?

"Forget the fat lady. You're obsessed with the fat lady. Drive us outta here!" Independence Day

[scheming daemons]

14. Wanna bet?

Hillary will win PA.. but by a number something like 53-46.


Obama will win the Philly area by 300K to 400K votes alone.



You'll see...

[olkaz]

15. The schadenfreude goes on.... so listen up, Obama Supporters

Fellow Obama supporters,

Stop letting this sort of thing bother you. If you really want to get all emo about the kitchen sink strategy being executed, fine. For the rest of you, it's time to get off your ass.

http://my.barackobama.com/page/content/phonebankmap

Start making calls. Make 25 calls today and I guarantee you'll see things in a much different light.

[zulchzulu]

18. Absolutely

The race now should be focused on McCain as well. Hillary's chances are nil at this point. Why even waste time on her race-baiting kitchen sink strategy. Imagine the Hindenburg about 100 yards before it exploded. That's where her campaign is right now.

Phonebank!

[sorrybushisfromtexas]

21. Was that the fat lady that was going to sing.

Which fat lady. You do know that that is a extremely sexist thing to be said from a Hillary supporter.

Over 50% of adult women and men are going to sing.

[Hawkeye-X]

43. Done,and I made 32 calls.

Converted one Hillary supporter to Obama, and the rest were answering machines, so I left them messages!

[olkaz]

46. EXCELLENT WORK!!

See, when you put in work like this, you've earned the right to complain.

Great work, HawkeyeX, and hopefully some of the more belligerent folks on here will follow your great example.

[zulchzulu]

16. Delusion. Hillary Clinton's followers still think she has a mathematical possibility

I welcome you believing Hillary still has a chance. It will make her dropping out all the much more enjoyable.

[sorrybushisfromtexas]

17. Did she say that Hillary was about to sing?

I think she did.

[BeatleBoot]

19. His numbers have tumbled precipitously in the last 24 hours

http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics...

Daily Presidential Tracking Poll
Saturday, March 15, 2008
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Saturday shows Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton essentially even in the race for the Democratic Presidential Nomination. It’s Obama 46% Clinton 45% (see recent daily results). This reflects an unusually sharp change from yesterday’s results when Obama led by eight points and reached the 50% level of support for the first time. Daily tracking results are collected via nightly telephone surveys and reported on a four-day rolling average basis. Last night’s results were very favorable for Clinton and it remains to be seen whether this marks a lasting change in the race or is merely statistical noise. Single night results are based upon very small samples and are more volatile than the overall tracking poll.

<more>

[sorrybushisfromtexas]

24. 4 points is a lot.

Look she just caught up, or did she, it is in the margin of error.

[scheming daemons]

25. Talk to me when PA rolls around....

....

[sorrybushisfromtexas]

28. You misunderstood.

With the silly shit thery are putting out it would still leave hime tied and the margin of error is bout 4 he istill at 50.

[RazBerryBeret]

26. tumbled precipitously?

Nose dive?

hey, he's still ahead of Hillary.....what are you trying to say about your candidate?

[BeatleBoot]

45. 17 Point Drop in 24 hours

[thoughtcrime1984]

20. Your Republican Senator and Fox News are conspiring to keep this in the news

I hope she gets her f'in head handed to her.

[TML]

22. Maybe this is why you're giddy

You may want to back away. Klinton Krack Kills.

[EFerrari]

27. I wonder what Gennifer Flowers would say. n/t

[Forkboy]

29. You and jlake should get a room.

[wndycty]

31. I understand what you are saying in the thread I started. . .

. . .but its threads like this that just pushed me over the edge (this was posted after my thread but you get the drift). I know exactly how my words will be received, but sometimes you just need a release.

[Forkboy]

36. Yeah, I understand the urge all too well.

Which is one the reasons I hardly start any threads myself.

[wndycty]

39. Oh and please understand your words of restraint, caution and respect. . .

. . .but today is a mental health day for me.

[Forkboy]

41. LOL...that's everyday for me.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

37. LOL!

[Faygo Kid]

40. Throw elsewheresdaughter in there and make it a threesome.

Plenty of others with the same lovely attitude, one that guarantees Hillary loses the general election should she get the nomination.

[sorrybushisfromtexas]

30. quinnox

Why are you calling Hillary fat. I think she is a nice size considering what she has had to go through in her message.
Does she have a good voice? She has one weird laugh for sure.
Can you put her on an audio link?

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

35. Your dreaming.

[haymakeragain]

42. Rezko crashed and burned today. Wright is a springboard for

Obama to crush the Muslim thing and to show off his even-tempered, careful, logical, and intellectual self. Good luck on this crusade. Obama is rubber, Hillary is glue.

[avrdream]

47. Yeah, not much else to talk about for the next 5+ weeks.

[Perry Logan]

48. The poor Obamites. And after they've been so nice!

People at DU have posted thread after thread praising the fairness and sweetness of the Obama camp:

49. Unlikely

Something will almost certainly displace Wright from the top spot. There will be something negative about Hilly and then something else negative about Barack. Rinse, lather, repeat. That's the way things work in the 24 hr news cycle.

And since either Hilly or Obama is in deep trouble no matter who wins the nomination, you might want to temper your enthusiasm. Hilly hate is not going away anytime soon. And neither is Obama hate. Only idiots can't see the damage inflicted on both candidates by this process.

[my3boyz]

50. Yeah...keep smoking what you are smoking!

By the time you come off that high you will realize that that witch is back in New York trying to salvage her reputation.
