1. I heard he answered 8 questions, and then left after saying he had
answered enough.

34. And apparently, also, after an Obama staffer had called "last question"
Some campaigns do try to stick to their schedules, not wanting to keep supporters waiting around for hours.
    Actually, the citizens of Victoria were patient, sitting quietly in the Welder Center auditorium for three hours waiting for Bill Clinton. Many people had brought their children, and they were patient, too. But when a young Clinton aide appeared on the podium and announced that the rally was being moved to the street, so that Bill Clinton could address a larger crowd from the back of a truck, displeasure was expressed all 'round. Many families left in disgust.

3. It must be the pressure of having a 150 pledged delegate lead
that Hillary won't make a dent in even if she wins RI, TX and OH by 10% tomorrow.

18. Just words...
More LIES!

SAN ANTONIO, Texas -- Led by the Chicago press corps that has covered Obama for years, the candidate today faced a barrage of questions in what turned out to be a contentious news conference.

Questions centered on why his campaign had denied that a meeting occurred between his chief economic advisor and Canadian officials as well as questions on his relationship with Tony Rezko, a Chicago land developer and fast food magnate, now on trial for corruption charges.

Obama claimed that when he had first denied the meeting between Austan Goolsbee and any members of the Canadian administration he provided "the information that had at the time." Yeah OK Obama...:rofl: :rofl:

9. Very interesting.
Nervous some? Maybe it's the combo of NAFTA and Rezko that is spooking him.

He finally is facing some pressure and he is cracking under this already, this gives no confidence in Obama!

33. Winning does seem to...
increase the pressure. Losing is certainly doing wonders for Hillary. When all is lost, why not kick back and relax?

21. No frustration tolorance. None at all.
If it doesn't come easy to Team Obama, they pitch a fit.

They better toughen up fast. If their golden boy gets to go up against the GOP, "frustration" will only be the beginning of their pain.

25. Obama
wait until the Right Wing wackos go after Obama.They will dig up every little thing about him and distort the facts if they have to. If they couln't take a war hero (Kerry) as a President, what chance O has?

30. How does it feel to be talking bad about the next president of the United States?
Don't worry, Obama is a much bigger man the you could ever be. I'm sure he forgives you.
