In another ad appealing to Hillary Clinton supporters, John McCain says it's okay to vote Republican. Watch:

Transcript:

DEBRA BARTOSHEVICH: I'm a proud Hillary Clinton Democrat.

She had the experience and judgment to be President.

Now, in a first for me, I'm supporting a Republican, John McCain.

I respect his maverick and independent streak, and now he's the one with the experience and judgment.

A lot of Democrats will vote McCain. It's okay, really!

JOHN MCCAIN: I'm John McCain and I approved this message.

Debra Barstovich was a delegate at the Democratic Convention before she was ousted for openly supporting John McCain.

Bartoshevich is the poster girl for this year's crop of neo-neocons, who are abandoning the centrist Democratic candidate for a conservative Republican, exactly as the original neocons left Carter in 1980 for Reagan. Both generations of neocons, who seek to control BOTH political parties for Israel, are one-issue fanatics who are as determined to destroy Obama for Israel as they were to destroy Carter before. Israel is determined to bomb Iran. So the current neocons know that it is imperative to elect an incoming president who is completely in Israel's pocket, so that he will shill for Israel with the American public when the bombing brings the public $12 gas, destroys our stock market, and brings worldwide Depression. Defending Israel under those circumstances will require the new president to be as much a ventriloquist's dummy for Israel as Bush has been (see his Knesset speech on "appeasement," for starters). Hillary was as in the tank for Israel (and the need to "obliterate" Iran) as McCain is. But now that Hillary's dead meat, Obama must be stopped at all cost. Otherwise, Israel might have to face a furious American public with an American president who was AGAINST a pre-emptive Israeli strike against Iran. That would potentially pose the gravest threat to the American public's support for Israel in the history of US-Israel relations. Obama might also support congressional investigations into the neocon roots of the proxy war for Israel, using American bodies and treasure, in Iraq.

The PUMAs complained are supporting McCain claiming that women's issues isn't their number one priority... even though they complained about sexism throughout the campaign.

makes sense?

She's obviously not a very intelligent individual. She thinks McCain is PROLIFE! Way to show your support to and honor for Clinton by supporting a candidate that goes against everything she and her party stand for.


Michael Scherer catches an odd moment yesterday: Clinton delegate-turned-McCain backer Debra Bartoshevich suggests, falsely, that McCain favors abortion rights, and has a talking point to back it up.

This woman was a tool --prob didnt really support Hillary either to begin with and would have done this against Hillary if she had been the nominee. Noone would vote Mccain if they were true Hillary supporter.

Don't you see what Carville is doing? He wants us to get our attention off the wonderful, honest and patriotic Americans who love this country. Jealousy is raging. They have had their fun with their lies and distortions. Great speeches Michelle and Teddy. Thank you.

I think she's made a very uncomfortable relationship for herself among fellow democrats. I would say she will be seen as a traitor. How could any woman want to vote for McCain. Think about it ladies, our right to self-determination is at stake.

Dear DEBRA BARTOSHEVICH,

George Bush & Dick Cheney have "experience & judgment" ... look where their "experience & judgment" have taken us. So much for "experience & judgment."

John McCain voted AGAINST Equal Pay for Women (bad judgment).

John McCain wants to bring back the DRAFT (bad judgment)

John McCain voted WITH Bush/Cheney 90% of the time (bad judgment).

John McCain voted AGAINST our Vets (bad judgment).

John McCain voted AGAINST Amerian workers (bad judgment).

Your willing to let this Country and the People of this Country fall on harder economic times, get into MORE wars (Iran & Russia)...just so YOUR GAL Hillary lost the Primary - (bad judgment for you)

YOU are so selfish to have YOUR WAY despite what's good for our Country?

YOU ARE NOT A GOOD AMERICAN!

IF: As a result of your selfish vote McCain wins and begins the DRAFT to fight Iran & Russia

THEN: The blood of every dead/wounded soldier & civilian will be ON YOUR HANDS AS WELL AS McCAIN'S.

Your lack of consideration for this Country and the People of this Country is apalling!

Should include the fact that at the press conference discussing this ad she said that McBush had no intention of overturning Roe v. Wade.

Hillary said " I'm Hillary Clinton, and I DID NOT approve that message".

She was fierce, brava Hillary!

It was good but she really needs to step it up. Otherwise Hillary is toast politically.

It turns out that the Woman in the new McCain ad was asked this week if she new MCain was commited to over turning Roe v. Wade and she was unaware of his position. I guess she probably doesn't know that McBush voted against women receiving equal pay for equal work. I guess if she slammed her head against the glass ceiling endorsed by Republicans, she might eventually knock something loose in her ricochet chamber located between her ears.
