Clinton's West Virginia Victory Does Little To Slow Obama

I think smug and arrogant are going to be character "features" the GOP will latch on to.

He HAS earned it. Watching him in the debates he looked like he was pouting whenever he couldn't get the last word in. posted 05/14/2008 at 16:08:39
yes, those who did not succumb to obamamania don't count. We're just uneducated, stupid, racist buffoons who shouldn't be allowed to vote anyway. posted 05/14/2008 at 16:06:41
How naive can you possibly be? This campaign has been a picture of civility.

How old are you? Do you remember how the GOP turned a decorated War Hero into some kind of spineless, lying baby killer?

I suggest you find some ivory tower to hide in this fall, lest your delicate sensibilities be tainted with the inevitable attacks against Obama. posted 05/14/2008 at 16:05:00

Why Hillary Lost My Daughter and Me

Sometimes you need to fight.

That's been the problem with Democrats. They act weak and unprincipled.

The only thing that gives Obama any hope to be a good president is a Democratic majority in Congress.

If he had to face a Republican congress like the one Clinton faced in the 1990's, he'd go down in history as worse than Carter. posted 05/13/2008 at 18:51:10
Yeah. Clinton haters are irrational.

Did you know that all of West Virginia is racist? Yep. God's own truth. See, they aren't voting for Obama. And you know what that means (yup...racists). posted 05/13/2008 at 18:45:55

Will Hillary Repeal the Clinton Gas Tax?

What on earth does a 4.3 cent gas tax from 1993 have to do with $4 a gallon gas in a time of record oil company profits? In a time when George Bush promoted the purchase of gas guzzling SUV's, so it now costs $100 for a fill up?

If Obama can't beat Hillary, he shouldn't be the nominee.

It's stunning that he hasn't been able to put her away. And that speaks volumes about his campaigning ability.

The right wing will paint Obama as a drug-dealing, Mulsim-sympathizing, half-breed, who doesn't know how to do anything. Are you in the slightest way prepared for that? posted 05/05/2008 at 14:54:50
Yes, that's really the best way to pick a president. Base it on looks.

Obama's Reverend Wright Press Conference (VIDEO)

Yeah, you can't have the same pastor for 20 years and not know what he's talking about. posted 04/30/2008 at 13:48:33
Feel the heat and throw the reverend under the bus.

Obama attended the church for over 20 years. It's clear the reverend did not suddenly change into a stranger, and Obama has listened to him for decades.

Yet it took all this time for him to wake up and disagree with the reverend? I think not. Obama is just another politician in hot water.

"Slash-And-Burn" Vs. "The Kitchen Sink"

If she doesn't win by a good margin, it will be telling.

If she does, though, it makes the superdelegates' decision tougher. The (screwed up) democratic system means it's not all about pledged delegates. The supers will need to think about electability.

If Clinton keeps winning battleground states, that's a big deal. Who cares if she doesn't get South Carolina, or Wyoming, or Oklahoma. Those are McCain's. posted 04/21/2008 at 14:53:34

Why Hillary Clinton's Slash-and-Burn Politics May Hurt Her More Than Obama

Because this is Obama's media outlet. Anything out of Clinton's mouth is the latest worst attack in the world. Anything from Obama is fine (even his support of Joe Lieberman has been overlooked).

The reason I prefer Clinton (I'm not Anti-Obama) is that she has been attacked viciously since the 1990's and has survived admirably. Once the general election begins, I don't know if Obama can take it, or if he will have enough fight to get the job done as president posted 04/15/2008 at 15:27:46
