Debunking the Obama Cult
Sick of being called a cultist by Clinton supporters for backing Obama? Jack Tapper of ABC picked up this meme today, and I just put a post to debunk this argument:

1. I have a sense that this is a meme being spread by the Clinton campaign.
I have seen several articles and commentaries popping up here and there.

In addition to The ABC comments, I have saw an article in the UK Guardian.

It is an underground campaign tactic suddenly appearing in multiple places.

Most likely planned. I wonder what the Obama crew will do to stop it.

2. Clinton talking point
Most likely this is a Clinton campaign talking point. Often when we saw the pro-Clinton blogs all yammering about the same thing it stemmed from emails from Peter and campaign conference calls.

It looks like I've bee dropped from their mailing list--I haven't been invited to any more conference calls since Liberal Values has taken a very hard anti-Hillary line when she started getting dirty. I can't say for sure, but the manner in which this is popping up in several places at once does have me suspecting that this was the topic of a recent conference call.

4. From my observation I think you are very correct.
Will the Obama team be wise to this soon?
