Obama doesn't look like the same refreshing candidate from 3 months ago.
The post-Rezko, post-bungled votes, post-present votes, post-Reagan praise, post IWR waffling, post pro Patriot Act vote Obama doesn't seem like the same candidate. His support would be half of what it is if they knew then what they know now.

26. Don't forget Peter Paul.
And if the Hillbots believe the GOP hasn't forgotten about John Huang, Charlie Trie and the dishwashers donating $2,000 of money they don't have, they're sadly mistaken.

His "new kind of politics" is just dirty Chicago politics.

68. No offense
I'm really not being my usual self tonight and have been degrading posters that I normally wouldn't do. I want to apologize for that.

And so anyway, don't you think I could easily turn that around and ask how a little-known governor in Arkansas came out of nowhere to win the presidency? Or how someone that wasn't even a New York resident until the year prior to her campaign won the New York Senate race?

All of those questions are patently unfair as is the one that you just asked and answered.

Bill Clinton was the governor of Arkansas, not a state senator.
Of course questions can still be asked.

I wish they'd stop squabbling like a couple of pissy fifth-graders and talk about actual issues. The more I hear from either of them, the more persuaded I am to caucus for Edwards on Feb. 5.

75. Amen to that.......he is
proving to be very divisive. I have never seen the dem party so hateful towards their supporters......I do think that some of it rethug mischief too.

I was listening to Bill Press last night on AA radio, he said he got 75 nasty e-mails, all from Obama supporters, because he said we should vote for the dem nominee, whomever it is! He was so angry that people were basically saying "if you don't vote for Obama, you can't count on us for the dem vote in the GE."

He proceeded to go into a litany of reasons why people had better think again about that, i.e., supreme court, jobs, education, health care, social security, etc.

IMO, this type of attitude will end up hurting Obama more that helping him..................

And by that I mean a campaign with a real opponent--Alan Keyes does not count, and state senate races are, well, minor league.

If he think Hillary is going rough on him, he has no idea what the RNC stormtroopers have in store for him.

18. I doubt he would win Iowa now.
Probably a whole lot of buyer's remorse out there.

I just re-read the New York Times article on David Axelrod from last April. It is long but worth the time as you see all of David's ideas unfold. Obama is nothing more than a lab project that David has been working on for 15 years.

40. I truly did not realize how long this project has been in the works
or how many years the association between the media guy and the empty vessel has been going on.

I have also been going back and reading up on David's best friend - Rahm Emanuel. Everyone thinks he is a Hillary supporter - he is not. She didn't like him and wanted him fired from the W.H. He is secretly working for Obama. Note the call Rahm placed to Bill last week telling him to shut up. Then it got trumpeted all over the press by the Obama camp. The smarmy congressman is not worthy of carrying Bill's underwear. But, the smarmy congressman, the slimy media guy and top political strategist and the empty vessel thought the press would be too stupid to figure out the real deal. They were right about the media lemmings.

Those who think Dean will be fired by Hillary are looking at the wrong candidate. If Obama wins he will fire Dean. Everyone surely remembers the open hostility between the DCCC (Rahm and Axelrod the DCCC's media person) and Dean in the run up to the 2006 elections about fund placement.

89. It's obvious that Axelrod
tried to run Obama as the second coming and he succeeded up until NH. I didn't read about his 15 year plan though, and I never knew that Rahm was working against Hillary. Wow.

If you have the link to the Axelrod piece, I'd like to read it.

92. Just google David Axelrod and New York Times.
It will be the first thing up.

I have actually read a bunch of David and Rahm stuff so can't direct you to one place.

As to Hillary not liking Rahm - I didn't research it today so I don't know what is available online. My problem is that I read books, newspapers and magazines in addition to using the internet. I think the info on Rahm was from a magazine article. It stuck with me because I have always thought Rahm was a slime ball and I was glad to read that Hillary thought likewise.

You know, I always thought that Rahm was an ardent Clinton backer too, and I'm delighted to hear that he isn't.

Thanks, I'm off to read.

74. A Democratic candidate for president who has millions of supporters...
and has won more delegates that your candidate so far is a "lab project."

That's some truly disgusting shit you guys are pumping out. Frankly, I'm ashamed to say I share a party with you.

Her selfish, scorched-earth campaign should be soundly rejected. However, it appears some of her supporters share her "say anything do anything" philosophy. If she wins this way, we all lose.

37. The foamers are out in force tonight, spewing their hate and lies.
Their candidate would be proud.

51. If she wins, we all lose.
The last thing this country needs is four more years of Bush-Clinton-Bush-Clinton.

38. Senator Obama is looking better and better to me. Especially after Bill Clinton's
Edited on Fri Jan-25-08 10:34 PM by wisteria
ranting and ravings. I am almost as disgusted in Clinton now as I am with Bush.
This disgusting power grab is a real turn off and if the Clinton's think everything will be fine after the primaries, they better think again.

73. "Do not post messages that are bigoted ..."
Do not post messages that are bigoted against (or grossly insensitive toward) any person or group of people based on their race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, religion, lack of religion, disability, physical characteristics, or region of residence.

While specific words are not automatically forbidden, members should avoid using racist, sexist, homophobic, or otherwise bigoted terminology. This includes gender-specific terms such as "cunt," "whore," "slut," "skank," or "pussy," and terms with homophobic derivation, such as "cocksucker," which are often inflammatory and inappropriate. A common exception that is permitted is the use of words like "whore" or "prostitute" in cases where public figures or the media do favors. (For example: "Fox News is whoring for the GOP again" or "Tom DeLay is a prostitute for corporate interests.")

77. Oh stop the selective outrage, DSB.
Obama is referred to as a "lab project" and worse in posts above.

67. Screw Obama and Clinton.
Edited on Fri Jan-25-08 10:54 PM by Snarkoleptic
Vote your heart...Edwards is the populist candidate and will do right by all of us.
Obama lacks depth.
Clinton energizes the repukes.
Edwards is the candiate who truly scares the shit out of the big business dildoes who have squeezed the life our the middle class.

86. He's better than the McCandidate that is Hillary Clinton.
Six bungled votes in over a thousand--and he stated in "Audacity of Hope" that he wondered one day if an opponent would be desperate enough to use it against him. Yet another desperation move--and for the record, he cleared up his actual vote on all of them.

"Present" does not mean what you think it means. NPR did a segment where they explained it quite well. Geez, I thought Democrats were smart enough to understand nuanced positions.

HE NEVER PRAISED REAGAN'S POLICIES. GODDAMNIT. READ THE QUOTE IN CONTEXT.

If you want IWR waffling look no further than Hillary. She's done enough of it in the 5 years we've been in Iraq. She sways like a windsock with the political prevailing winds.
