How does Obama really think he can score votes
by calling the small town folks, in front of the people on Millionaires Row,gun lover, prayer lovers and folks who just cling to these things because of their bitterness. He seems to be so out of touch that he appears so up there like, Kennedy, Liberman, Olberman , Dashalle, the first class losers. Just amazing.

17. Don't forget: Teflon is manufactured. Doesn't grow naturally. Not at all.

Much like every stance Hillary has taken since 2000.

44. Probable misnomer
Obama is more a counter-puncher than an elusive personality. It's not that charges tend not to stick to him, its that they end up hurting the person who originally made them.

A more appropriate analogy would be Rubber.

And yes, that does grow naturally.

She doesn't. She just lies and says she does, Clinton style. Bill could do that because he had charisma, she does not.

15. Mags, he told the truth. It can be spun, but it's the truth. ...and he's still winning.
Frankly, the response of the average American voter has made me more optimistic than I've been in a long time. They're aware of what's happening and they admit that they're angry.

That spelling is usually reserved when using the pronoun to denote God.

Are you saying that Obama is god?

And I'm pretty sure Obama is just a mere mortal human politician. I don't expect any miracles from him, and frankly, the only people I ever hear breathlessly talking about how their candidate walks on water are Hillary's more rabid supporters.

Whart evidence that Obama would lose the GE while Clintons would win? Other than your misplaced hatred of Obama, that is.

Hillary's hand. And then, during a debate, he quips "you're likable enough".

64. I think it will play out the same as
snub-gate, sweetie-gate, and all the other "gates" that have come Obama's way. I think it will have some kind of short term effect and then it will be forgotten. I see no reason why this shouldn't be exactly the same.

51. Well, if you really read the transcript of his comments in the three
paragraphs that you are almost-but-not-quite-quoting, you'd know that what he was REALLY saying is that these folks have been fucked by political lies for so long that their religion or the second amendment are the only issues they feel like they have a right to anymore..

I know bunches of them, and they ARE bitter and they wouldn't vote for a Clinton again to save their lives....it has something to do with that NAFTA thingy....


you Hillary worshiping chablis drinking elitist, you.

No need to believe that Obama is evil just because he recognizes the frustration in poor Pennsylvanian families who face grim job prospects.
