Obama Camp Faces Major Obstacles In Plan To Help Clinton Pay Off Debt

I have already begun my personal transition beyond this really tough primary. To the Clinton supporters: Your candidate fought harder than any candidate I have seen in my lifetime when her back was totally against the wall. She was tireless and she tested Barack like no other candidate could. I did not agree with some of the tactics and they did hurt. If the Obama campaign did something that had the same effect on you, you have my sincere apology. We actually tried very hard not to go there. Any bad feelings I have toward the Clintons will be given up the winds tonight. I wish her well and will support her in other leadership roles in the party. I am ready to move on. I await the times when we can reunite and look forward to the really important fight this fall. Peace out. posted 05/09/2008 at 01:30:10

Obama Victorious, Clinton On The Ropes

This email gives the wrong impression. They are good issues, but not necessarily front burner issues. We have transitioned away from a natural resource economy to a high tech center. I am a life-long resident of Oregon. We are among the most progressive states...very blue. The repukes didn't even run candidates for the statewide offices this year. We tend to be fiscally conscious, while being progressive. Obama has a 12 point lead as of this date. He will do well here and it will be integrity which will be the defining reason that he wins. We want a very environmentally focused, peace-orientated, justice-seeking candidate. This is a great place to live where rights do matter. Barack will win here by just being himself. posted 05/07/2008 at 23:52:28

Fugu: A User's Guide To The World's Most Dangerous Dinner (VIDEO)

I do not want to eat anything that is still wiggling on the plate. I would die from puking my guts out. That is the grossest thing I have seen. I am an absolute wimp about weird foods. The Japanese have my respect... I am sticking with the vegatarian menu. posted 04/28/2008 at 22:19:19

"American Idol" Jason Castro's Wacky Dreadhead Following

Jeez...such a nasty comments section. The readers of HuffPo must be a bunch of old farts who are really out-of-it. The version of Over the Rainbow was excellent. It will be David vs Jason as the last two. Both are very creative and I guarantee young people like them a lot. posted 04/26/2008 at 19:56:28

Media Jump Ship From Obama To Clinton

Since Barack and his campaign staff are committed to not tearing the party apart, but are not appreciated for their efforts, it is time for his friends to unload on Clinton. Move-On and others need to piece together several commercials that rip Clinton to shreds. We need to see some sniper fire, some Peter Paul, some Nafta etc. She is wide open for a frontal assault. She has stooped lower and lower every week. I have had it. She wants to destroy Barack...fine...lets destroy her. It probably doesn't matter anymore about the election in the fall - she has already ruined the Dems chances anyhow. Let's see some rippers. posted 04/25/2008 at 01:04:34

"Mudcat" Saunders: Why Obama Isn't Winning Working Class Whites

Barack does need some lessons in how to connect better with non-urban America. He needs to listen to Mudcat. Does he always need to be dressing so GQ? An occasional pair of jeans and a t-shirt would help a lot. For those of you who don't understand "small town" America, we would tell him to act more like a "regular" person. People in fancy suits usually mean trouble. The negative stereotypes of rural Americans on here on absolutely disgusting...Bubbas, rednecks etc. This total lack of any respect will guarantee a loss in November. posted 04/25/2008 at 01:29:36

Bill Clinton: Obama "Played The Race Card On Me"... Listen To Audio

If you are running against the Clintons, you had better be prepared to defend yourself with whatever you have available. In the era of identity politics, Hillary couldn't get at him. He had a defense screen she couldn't get through. She was planning on using the gender card like a machine gun and it was useless. For those who say Barack hasn't done anything, he survived the Clinton barage. Who else could have survived it? posted 04/22/2008 at 12:35:27

Michael Moore Endorses Obama, Calls Clinton Tactics "Disgusting"

Michael Moore is a brilliant progressive media guy. He is one of our treasures. He is not always perfect, but I wouldn't want him that way. I wish I could have made the contributions he has made. For those who are dissing him, get off your butts and show us what you've got. You won't come close. posted 04/21/2008 at 18:35:41

Debate Analysis: ABC Asked Most Scandal Questions, Obama Was Clear Target

We now know who the real candidate is who had to run from "sniper fire". You have to crazy not to have noticed the entire establishment is out to get him.

Barack needs to dump the Democratic Party and run an independent campaign. Welcome to the "NEW Democratic Party! McCain and Clinton are already running as a ticket (and they deserve each other).

This will be remembered at the campaign where Hillary Clinton destroyed the Democratic Party for her selfish misguided reasons. posted 04/20/2008 at 15:38:13

Hillary Clinton Slams MoveOn With Karl Rove's Lies

I am a member of MoveOn. My money goes to them, not to the Dem machine. We work hard to create a more progressive America. We voted (by super majority) to endorse Barack. We selected the real progressive candidate. I do not care what crap gets thrown at us, I know what my values and principles are...and MoveOn represents them. Thomas Jefferson would be proud of us! posted 04/19/2008 at 03:21:35

Joe Scarborough Walks Off MSNBC's "Race To The White House" After Exchange With Rachel Maddow

Rachel Maddow is a class act. She didn't mean anything other than not wishing to be stepped on. I never miss her radio show and I hope NBC sees a future "Keith". She is that good. Go Girl! I kinda like Joe as a reasonable conservative voice and I hope he sees his way through this and cleans up the mess. Obama needs to consider Rachel for Press Secretary.

Campaign AdWatch: Obama Hits Back At Clinton, Lobbyists

I hope this ad is just the beginning. She has left herself open for a real beating. I have a great idea for a fantastic AD (It is my idea, so credit me when you do it Barack.)

Hire Jon Lovitz (the pathological liar from SNL) to critique HilLIARry and her "mis-speaks" this spring.
He should admire her technique, but advise her to check for video footage before attempting any more big whoppers. Yeah...that's the ticket...

He should hammer on one word....TRUST. You can't trust someone who will say anything. posted 04/16/2008 at 01:09:13

It's Not Weightism. You're Just Obese.

We have an epidemic of obesity in America. The incidence of obesity here is way higher than anywhere else in the world (that I know of). That tells me that the problem is located in our American culture, not the moral failings of overweight people. We really need to change some basic habits and our fellow Americans with this problem need some empathy, understanding and basic changes in what is being blasted at them every night on tv. Count the number of unhealthy food ads in an hours worth of tv. You watch tv and you end up hungry...for all the wrong stuff. posted 04/07/2008 at 00:23:00

Gay Paper: Obama Refuses To Talk With Gay Media

In the final analysis, Obama will help the progression of America toward a better relationship with Gay Americans than Clinton would. He has shown he can take a difficult subject and use it as a teaching moment. She can't. For whatever reason, the leadership in the Gay Community has been in Hillary's purse all along. Who wants to walk into an ambush? Give him a chance. posted 04/05/2008 at 12:31:44

Oprah Brought To Tears By Tribute To Her Dead Dog

Jesus...I cannot believe the number of heartless basturds who read this blog. It must be this ugly political season doing it to us. Anyone who shows emotion because they truly care earns points with me. Oprah gets a hug from me. Dogs are a better species than we are. I only wish I were half the man my dogs think I am. posted 04/05/2008 at 10:14:38

Obama's Anger--Redux

My mother went through "Indian School". She was mixed blood (Metis'). They (her sisters) were called one of those special put-down names that white folks have for each minority .. half-breed.

That is not the important part of her story. When we were little kids out in rural Oregon, we finally got television. I remember vividly when she pointed out black people on tv (I had never acutally seen one...it was very rural) and spent a long time telling us what had happened to them and that they were wonderful people (she had friends from her days in Chicago). She then, over time, proceeded with the same lessons about Asian, Hispanic, Jewish and other peoples.

What a gift I was given. I have great hopes for a special gift that Barack may be able to give us. posted 03/29/2008 at 01:16:14

Watch: Spitzer Scandal Explained By A 3-Year-Old

Clinton Camp: Obama Falsely Claims He Doesn't Take Oil Money

Clinton's talking pointing have been carefully tested with focus groups of low intelligence people to make sure they cannot see right through them. I have solid proof of this. Read some of these comments. posted 03/29/2008 at 01:38:49

AP: Why Wasn't The Truth Good Enough For Hillary?

The real issue here is not so much the lie. It is how could her campaign be so stupid to let this happen. This was totally in their control from the beginning. Barack's big problem comes from the actions of someone else and not in his control. Every time she stretches anything from here on out...this will be brought up over and over again. "There she goes again..." He can nail her at every debate with this. Barack has a big problem with the Wright mess, but he gets an "A" for how he dealt with it. It is usually not the initial problem, it is how you respond to it that matters. She really, really screwed this one up. posted 03/26/2008 at 03:52:41

James Carville on Gov. Richardson's Endorsement of Barack Obama

I think prverde's post is wonderfully representive of those who support Hillary. It makes it's points so clearly and with such thoughtfulness.

Who knew that Barack was a racist, anti american and traitor. I must have missed that news item.

Now Bill Clinton has clarified that Barack does not love America. Thank God I found out before I voted.

God save us from the Clintons.... posted 03/23/2008 at 00:14:07

How Will Hillary's Bosnia "Whopper" Play in the Media?

dattexas,

Experience is a word that could mean anything. Please delineate exactly what that experience is.
This is a direct challenge to all Clinton supporters. What experience? She says 35 years... so list the specific experience and the years involved. It is phony and you know it. Being married to a man in power doesn't count. By the way, list any bills she sponsored and got passed in the senate. Can you name anything without a google search? A good rule of modern politics...If a Clinton accuses you of anything, you can be sure they are guilty of it 100 times over.

dattexas... YOU GET OVER IT. Obama has talent and more "experience" than she does. posted 03/22/2008 at 23:34:47
I feel sorry for the Clinton supporters. It is just one thing after another. You should be able to trust your candidate. The real issue in this race is trust and intergrity. When you are ready, we welcome you on this side of the river. It is not your fault. posted 03/21/2008 at 22:22:38

Obama Endorsed By Bill Richardson

The one way to stop this Clinton/Obama cat fight is for enough of the super delegates to come out and say that they pledge to the best-behaved candidate on April 15. This is the only thing that will stop this nonsense.

Right now, Clinton is being rewarded for her bad behavior. posted 03/21/2008 at 22:06:45
