Did Hillary Really send out
an Oil Lobbyist today as a surrogate to defend her gas tax holiday?
would someone from Shell Oil convince you that a gas tax holiday is in YOUR best interest???
As Obama just said..."it really IS a shell game, literally!"

great line...

3. You cannot be serious! Has she lost her mind? I think she'll
end up wishing she never suggested this idiocy.

14. I can't find a link anywhere to this....
but I heard Obama say this on the CNN live stream minutes ago....maybe it's too recent to fact check?
I would imagine it was in either Indiana or NC today...

still looking....

16. Even if that were true, it really doesnt matter? Most people who...
support her and the campaign she is running, really don't care about allot of things she is doing in her campaign. I think its just about seeing their own personal favorite team winning at all costs. I think Clinton realizes this and thats why she will do anything, she even brags herself that she has baggage...so what.
