Hey Hillary! Want to Play “FRAG the FRONT-RUNNER”?
Folks, if you’re offended at Hillary for pimping McCain over Obama, you are far, FAR from alone. Our own blog on this, which started on DU, brought 50,000 visits to the DeadElephant.ORG campaign site yesterday alone. The outrage is everywhere, everywhere, everywhere.

This is Hillary’s “Howard Dean Scream” moment. It will never be forgotten. Certain moments in a politician’s career are especially revealing, and this is one I think we all wish that we’d never seen. Though in our heart of hearts… we’ve always known that she had it in her to be this ruthless.

So, in the interests of staunching the damage that Hillary has chosen to inflict on the Democratic Party, DeadElephant.ORG has launched a respectful petition to the Super Delegates, which we hope you will join in signing.

Here’s the text:

Super Delegates: Stop the Damage, Pledge for Obama NOW



To the Democratic Super Delegates:

Recent statements by Senator Clinton which suggested that the Republican nominee is better qualified to serve as President than our own party's front-runner for the nomination, Senator Obama, have caused irreparable harm to the Democratic Party. Before further damage to our party occurs, we ask you to rebuke Ms. Clinton, and to publicly pledge your support for Obama TODAY.

Sign this petition here: http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/SuperDelegatesMustPledgeForObama/



You can let everyone on DU know that you signed by kicking this thread.
You can also Digg this petition here: http://digg.com/2008_us_elections/PETITION_Super_Delegates_Stop_the_Damage_Pledge_for_Obama
[br />

My friends, this is the only graceful way to bring the Democratic primary election to a close. Let's get focused on unhorsing the Republican juggernaut!



Thanks.

I am in other forums and blogs regularly. I am seeing Senator Clinton's damaging remarks being echoed BY repuke supporters. One frequent freeper poster over in the Thom Hartman blog actually uses it as a sig line!

11. Why do we have to pay for this?
Couldn't you find a free site? I'd rather give the $$ to Obama. :shrug:

20. Yes
You don't need to give them money for your signature. They just ask for a donation afterward.

19. how many "howard dean" moments are we gonna have?
I mean every other day it is this "This is Clinton's Howard Dean moment".....

That line has got to be the most popular quote in this forum.

Come up with a new one people. I think there is a Big diff. between Clinton and Dean or Btween Obama and Dean.


LOL

29. Howard Dean was scammed by the MSM.
Hillary Clinton's action was an act of disloyalty to the party. The closest comparable action is Lieberman's endorsement of McCain. However, It appears that Lieberman is no longer a Democrat, or minimally, his political career AS a Democrat is finished.

Clinton has back-stabbed the party that she wants to LEAD. And, there are still Democrats who support her candidacy? This does NOT show good judgment on her part. And, people think that she is qualified to be CinC?

31. This was her moment for me. I don't think what happened to Dean was fair....
What's happening to her right now she deliberately brought on herself with her "lifetime of experience" bullshit. Pat Buchanan and Fred Thompson each have a "lifetime of experience" too. That doesn't mean one of OUR candidates needs to go pimping THEIR campaigns!

32. Howard Dean was treated unfairly. HRC isn't being treated unfairly.
She said what she said deliberately with no distortion. She endorsed the GOP candidate over her Dem rival. She gets what she deserves.
