A campaign event Wednesday with black supporters of presidential hopeful Barack Obama included WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather, whose achievements in the ring are clouded by battery convictions and accusations of domestic violence.


Spokesmen for both the Democratic senator and the fighter sought to minimize Mayweather's involvement hours before the event was to begin.

Contributions up even more, lots of ground roots support as reported from more unknown sources. A sidestep here; a waffle there.

Contributions up even more than ever, lots of ground roots support as reported from unknown sources. Oprah is ecstatic because her darling is so popular with Huff&Puff!

The O-Bomb-able one and his pandering efforts is getting far too much coverage on this site. It is not news worthy coverage.

His investors will be very disappointed when he does not get the DNC nomination.

Billery already has it sown up using her back door deals with the movers and shaker complete with corporate and lobbyist support. The fix unfortunately is already in the cards of the stacked deck. Still there is no way that Billery will be much of an improvement over the unacceptable status quo.

When and why has Huff Post gone all slime on Obama? It's reached the preposterous stage. Obama is expected to be all things to all people and responsible for the lifestyles of every one of his supporters. Huff Post--promoting Hill, a candidate whose associations are way more troublesome than anyone supporting Obama. Huff Post has lost credibility.

I agree with you dudley. Nothing but a lot of smear tactics to help promote HRC. I'll tell you, if HRC does get the Nomination, I shall be voting Republican or Independent if there is one.

Our country is already on the path to destruction because we have had these two dynasties running it. Bush, Clinton, Bush and another Clinton. No thank you. That would mean almost 24 plus years of their control.

The cycle needs to be broken so our country can heal and perhaps one day return to the way it once was. If that means putting a Republican in so be it. At least the cycle will be broke.

People that live in other countries are also wondering why Americans would want two dynasties to continue to control our government. Good question don't you think?

If people were to follow the money they would see that HRC is just as evil if not worse than Bush. Also the wars will continue, the secretive BS, and our country will remain divided by a divisive person at the Helm. Same old Shit? Not for me!

This character assasination by association is sickening. They know they can't call him the n word to his face so they try with Romney's slip of the tongue, and talking about the ex gay singer and Floyd who just met Obama last weak. Now we find out that the national gay activist group just recently ex leader worked in the Clinton Whitehouse. With the untraceable muslim emails, this is just an orchestra hit by the dirtiest of politicans-HRC.

Look. Let's be honest here. It doesn't matter what Obama or Richardson or Dodd or any of them on the Dem side say. Just as it doesn't matter what Paul or Huckabee or Romney or any of the other republicans say. The media has already told us that they have decided Clinton and Giuliani are the nominees. Therefore, analyzing what the "losers" say is a waste of time and the actual votes the citizens may make sometime in the future are irrelevant.

Absolutely correct, truthyguy! We have a choice of corporate candidate A or corporate candidate B. Generally speaking, the most popular candidate is "none of the above", as evidenced by the fact that only 47% of the people vote.

Her Hillaryship is really in to win it with the help of high priced trolls. What will Sen Obama do to show that he learned Cook Co, IL politics? This much too long campaign needs some creative dirty tricks. Her Hillaryship is using tactics that are hoary. Sen Obama owes the voters some creative counter measures to counter Sen Clinton's same old, same old to become POTUS. The race is becoming a big yawn.

"Fluffy" Obama ran against a weakling in the IL Senatorial primary and then had a nutcase Keyes jump in at the last moment in the main election. Add to that his naivette and lack of experience

From that small pond he jumped straight into the shark infested deep blue! I can understand the hype created around him and by him but the fact he beleived his own baloney shows the extent of his naivette!

No add to that Naivette, large doses of desperation and what do we have?! A recipe for disaster!!!

Floyd Mayweather is one of my favorite boxers.

So what if he had a criminal background. You can't hold what a man did and has paid for earlier in his life. He has a right just as every other citizen to support a candidate.

This is a non story with a fucking misleading title, some one out of the Corporate Whore Killary Camp is trying to work over time in a benine attempt to dicredit Obama.
Why hasn't the MSM pressed for answers about the Chinese Laundering money to Killarys campaign???? Me thinks that is a bit more serious.

    Favorite    Flag as abusive Posted 10:15 PM on 10/24/2007

I agree with you. And any problems Floyd has had were basically when he was a much younger guy. He also has sponsored activities for children in Grand Rapids, Michigan where he's from. And given generously to many charities.

Now the Hillary army is really getting picky.

You're right - that might have been an assumption on my part, but from experience, you don't just 'appear' on stage with the candidate unless there's been an invitation. It just doesn't work that way.

And, I hope not, but, associations have a way of sending messages - maybe not intended, but, that's why you hire 'handlers' - to keep you from harming 'yourself'.

I think you really need to get fucked. It is apparent that you have some pent up anger. That usually happens to people when they don't get sexually relieved on a regular bases. Sex can also make you see things better, a clear head, know what I mean???

Well he hasnt did as much wrong as Hillary. But going to have the anti gay guy with him was wrong.
Other then that he has did pretty good. If Dodd sticks to his guns and keeps the telecom immunity bill from happening, He will win my support.

I agree.

He "hasnt did" as much wrong as Hillary.

That's because we haven't elected him as President, thank God!

No body cares what you say Starrianna.

You lost credibility a long time ago!

What has Obama done? Write it out in black and white so we can all see.

All this ado about nothing is sickning. I know it's pile on week for Obama but Hillary is sitting there claiming to be a victim.

Oh sorry Hillary, I've always known that you are not soo tough, just like I dont think Cheney is a tough guy either. Just because you act tough doesn't mean you are.

"What has Obama done? Write it out in black and white so we can all see."

-- the illustrious "zhonni"

BLACK AND WHITE -- that's rich!

THE POINT:

Obama IS black, but he's also white.
Obama was gay-friendly on "gay debate" day,
but now Obama hangs with the "haters"!!!

DISGUSTING, SHAMEFUL PIG!

Obama wants the gays to love him,
and he wants the gay-haters to love him too!

All in the name of JESUS, for Chrissake?

Does the man have no shame?

DO *** NOT *** TALK TO ME ABOUT CREDIBILITY!

Obama lost credibility weeks ago, and thanks
to his idiotic decisions and pandering to
everyone under the sun, he is losing more
and more credibility by the hour.

Obama wants to unite everyone and please everyone, but he stands for NOTHING.

He is a bullshit artist of the highest order.

"I'm a uniter, not a divider"
-- even his quotes are stolen ideas from G.W. Bush

AMERICANS are not IDIOTS, that's why Obama's numbers are dropping almost as fast as G.W.'s.

We don't need another bullshit uniter.
