ok, let's move on. the real enemy is McCain
give the hillary supporters a day or two to deal with things, let them vent their spleens and be done with it.

time to strategize on getting MCain:

let's keep some basic principles in mind:

1. let's tie him directly and irretreivably with Bush. Even republicans do not like Bush anymore.
2. Let's point out the fallacy of a hundred year war and how that would impact the economy
3. Let's bring up his birthday cake party while NOLA died.

any other ideas are welcome, please contribute.

1. It's important to realize that the repukes will play the terror/fear card
So Obama needs to shore up his defenses, in this area, by selecting a VP with a strong military/defense background.

2. Good point
That person should also appeal to white blue collar voters as well as Hispanics

4. I am so curious how they will play the race card
without looking like they are playing the race card. Wright was (is) their best chance at this and I think it has been pretty much exhausted. Especially with the economy taking a shit and Bush's occupation going south, and more people getting screwed on health care daily.

5. I would look to what they did in LA or whatever state it was
Where they took down the better Black candidate for Senate, in 2006, using race.

3. How many fucking times has John McCain been lampooned on SNL lately?
And now he's on the Daily Show for the Billionth time. Someone up there likes him....
