Political Punch

By the way all of you Barack Obama supporters.....

Thanks to your rude comments and dispicable tactics, you will get very little "if any" of the votes from Hillary supporters.

(To date over 10 Million voters have voted for Hillary! and thesae are almost all going to McCain if Hillary is not nominated!)

McCain, we have got your back!

Hillary / McCain 08

Whos the divider now!

I just happened upon a novel idea. Instead of delegates and super delegates, how about we elect by popular vote? You know, where the PEOPLE actually choose.

Surely in this day of 'electronic everything' this can't be that hard to do.

Hillary or Barack would both be 1000% better than Bush-Cheney. Hillary will still be able to do a lot of good as senator of NY. This Obama momentum does not look like it will be stopped. This country needs some real change and Obama has the most promise. Although there are some positive things McCain would bring it would still be a continuation of the Bush years.

It's over, Clinton supporters get over it! With all your hate, you and your children will benefit in the long run from the change for good in this country. Clinton can not run her campaign, how can she run the country? Do you ever wonder? It is all based on deceit, misrepresentations and fluff!

Obama supporters are just little drones it is really scary, its like a horror film.

You never know, but lots of Texans have a strong sense of loyalty (maybe thats why some of them like McCain as well) and it just might be that lots of them decide to swim against the tide and "dance with the one that brought ya".

Change that to 11-0.

Obama just won the Democrats Abroad by
65%.

Obama would be a disaster to our military. Hillary is a fighter. She has taken so much heat, and keeps on fighting. She's a soldier. Obama is just allot of hot air, who will get crushed by the GOP machine.

hitler?

yeah, there is definitely a similarity.
the magic of mesmerism on the minds of the enlightened..

oh. I forgot. the folks who blindly back barooma are the educated masses. those who follow Hillary are the dumb ones.....

You all are listening... but you are not hearing!
Patrick did not have the right to give Obama permission to use those quotes. They belonged to Roosevelt, and to Kennedy, and to Martin Luther King! and if their words were borrowed, these people deserved to have been acknowledged!

And it IS a big deal! It was Martin Luther King's dream, NOT Obama's.
And Obama's whole campaign was based on shallow eloquence.
And too many of us have been taken in by the sounds... and not enough sensed the weakness of substance.
And this and his color were 99 percent of what he had to offer.
And at first I was proud of the mixed races which flocked to the sound of his voice.

But them I noticed that though the whites welcomed his poetry,the race which clung to him the most... as if he were a saviour... were the blacks. And I realized that this poetic man who chanted on about change.... had already done what he'd promised.

He had catapulted us back in time to another time of change......the 50's.
Only the people had been reversed.

Be careful what you wish for.....

The GOP will rally behind McCain because they know there is a much bigger picture than the next 4 years. It's called the Supreme Court, and the next president will be selecting the nominees/members of that court. The last person on earth a conservative republican will vote for is a liberal like Obama. That leaves the moderates. Hillary and John McCain are far closer to the center (moderates) than Obama. Got the picture now?

Just Words?

Mrs Obama just like her husband use words as if she had a free pass to say what ever she wants. The snake in the Garden, Just Words. Hitler in 1939, Just Words.

What their audience doesn't know is History, so Obama can say what ever he wants they will eat it up. They think they are listening to some oracle when it is FDR model being used on these uneducated people. "A chicken in every pot"

Lincoln said you can not fool all the people all the time, I'm beginning to wonder, first these Americans elected Clinton not once but twice, now they are all attacking him, ha. Now these people are rushing to elect another con man.

Everyone thought Bill Clinton was a great man because he was such a good speaker, now people think Obama is such a good candidate only and for no other reason but he is a good speaker. Remember the greatest speaker in the Garden was the SNAKE!

I find the hate, especially coming from the Hillary supporters really sickening. What ever happened to civil discourse in this country? And as far as the Hillary supporters' claims that the media has christened Obama.......really? That should explain every network hopping on the Obama-as-cult bandwagon, or time after time, slipping Osama in for Obama. And the worst example so far, when on Hardball, MSNBC "mistakenly" showed Osama BL's pic with a caption pertaining to the upcoming discussion on the bogus plagiarism charge. Yeah, I can see why Hillary supporters think the MSM is in love with Obama. Get real.

Well, a campaign that runs like clock work...

Sounds like the clock is losing time or something...

Michelle Obama says that for the first time in her life she is proud to be an American...

How about the rest of you? Is this the first time you have ever been proud to be an American?

For my part, I am PROUD to be an American today and every day of my life. NOTHING changes that. Not George Bush, not Bill Clinton, not Hillary Clinton, not Hussein Obama, NOT ANYONE.

America is my country and always will be. I am PROUD to live here and be an American. Never, and I mean NEVER, have I ever not been PROUD to be an American.

I am PROUD of women and men like John McCain who serve this country in the military and other capacities around the world and at home.

I am very PROUD of those who serve this country and especially PROUD of those who have given the supreme sacrifice.

I do not need a political campaign to be PROUD of America for the first time.

Maybe, just maybe, the Obama campaign could keep better time if they spent it apologizing to Americans, especially American service men and women for a particularly offensive remark.

Instead, the Obama campaign is in damage control trying to explain and spin what they want us to believe Michelle Obama REALLY meant.

Michelle, we know what you meant ...exactly what you said.

I wonder what would have happened if Bill Clinton or Cindy McCain would have said the same thing?

Would they have gotten the same kid glove treatment being doled out to the Obama's by the press, ABC in particular?

From what I have read, Cindy McCain said that she has always been proud to be an American.

Then, the press tried their hardest to get both Cindy and John McCain to direct their comments towards Obama.

But the McCains weren't biting.

I guess their clock was working...

Yes,' a machine' running like clock work for the peolpe and by the people. Little over a year ago this machine was grassroots movement led by a man who believes in cooperation in government. A man who stands for doing away with the smoke filled rooms and backroom deals. A leader. You advocate a man that lost to Bush in a bid for the last election. If he was such a great candidate then, why wasn't he elected? (please don't tell me it's because GB was such a good candidate) The GOP lost their man in Romney who actually can draw a line between the parties. McCain is not your man...he's too liberal. But what's truley mindless is your blind devotion to a man that wants a 100 year war. More American lives lost, more hard earned American money wasted. Do i feel safe with this kind of reckless government, the answer is obvious. America is sick of the good old boys playing ball their way for their people and not the people. CHANGE MY FRIEND...it's coming in November!!!

this is the first time I can remember ever not really wanting to vote for anybody...will be carrying a coin for flipping into the booth

"A political machine like Obama's..."

Well, it's good to hear someone finally refer to the Obama campaign as a machine. You know, no thought...

Perhaps you don't pay a lot of attention to the opposition, but we (the GOP) are already rallying around John McCain. At present, the only distraction is coming from Mike Huckabee. Unlike Obama or Clinton, Huckabee IS mathematically out of the race, so the distraction is temporary and minor, at best.

On the other hand, Democrats will be distracted for about six months or so with the battle between Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barak Hussein Obama.

Now, that distraction is not temporary or minor. And, we will happy to pick up the pieces...or electoral votes...or a running mate...whatever the circumstances dictate.

And, as Democratic party leaders and supporters all over the country agree, that is their worst nightmare.

In all fairness, your response is actually quite typical of the Obama jargon that comes out to any opposition of the (in your words) "Obama machine."

A suggestion of anything less than mindless support of Obama is labeled as "hate/fear."

And, if a person refuses to drink the kool-aid and "embrace the change," they are, as you put it, "a malcontent." Whatever.

Just in case you han't picked up on current events, George Bush's stay in the White House is over in January. Change comes no matter who wins.

As for fund management, you had probably better do some research on funds from Barak Hussein Obama's past before you worry too much about Hillary Rodham Clinton or John McCain.

But, that, too, will all come out...

But, only at the right time...

Nancy says - "Barack Obama is winning on promises he can't deliver."

Babe, he's a politician. That's what they do.

I know it's a hard pill to swallow Ken but...The same veteran who continued to serve for 24 (count'em-24) years in the United States Senate....has nothing of substance to stand for. He's a GOP puppet and shows no backbone when it comes to policy. But the sad truth is the GOP still will not rally behind him because he's too liberal. So let me get this right a candidste with out the backing of his own party will unite not only the GOP but Clinton boosters too? Give me a break, based on what? A hate/fear of a Obama administration? Embrace change or be a malcontent it's your choice but I don't think the old man has got what it takes to beat a political machine like Obama's. Hey if Hills and McCain do run together can they loan each other campain funds? Neither one can manage their campaines very well but a country, ya sure, that'll be a snap. BAU

mg - Obama is the anti-Reagan -, he is Stalin in disguise. if elected he will sell off our country to his Muslim people.

Mike - it is a while before the general election, approximately the point in time before the primaries Hilary and Rudy were the shoe ins.

In a General Election matchup Obama will not be able to hide in his speeches of nothing, his true anti-Americanism

President McCain?

Yeah! Get used to it!

My vote goes for a veteran who served his country well.

The same veteran who continued to serve for 24 (count'em-24) years in the United States Senate.

GOP/Clinton supporters...
You got that one right. Maybe you should the math for your own projections.

Let's see...If we give Obama 60% of the potential Democratic electorate (and that is generous), and we give the McCain/Clinton ticket all of the Republican electorate plus 40% of the Democratic electorate loyal to Cliinton...

You do the math...

Yep, that's the way it's looking...

The Republicans will unite and rally around McCain in a few weeks...

The Democrats will go into a divided and bitter convention in August and come out with a no-winner candidate.

Might be what they have already...

Barack Obama is winning on promises he can't deliver. Remember his ad that said "we can save the planet..." We can change the world..." Or how about Michelle Obama telling us that our "souls are broken" and that she is "here today because she is married to the only one in this race who can heal our nation." But while Barack's hymn of healing promises that we will be one nation, absolved of our differences and suddenly capable of transcendent action, he does not tell us how he, a first-term Senator, the most liberal Senator in the Senate, is going to effect this transcendental change.

He is a charlatan who has captivated many. Count me out. I am appalled by his arrogant opportunism; his cocky swagger. The only thing that keeps me watching is a morbid curiosity as to what his collision with reality will look like. Too bad its our country is playing with. Clearly, he and Michelle have more regard for themselves than they do for America.

No matter what happens, Clinton supporters WILL NOT SUPPORT OBAMA.

For those who have been suggesting a Obama/Clinton ticket...forget it.

If John McCain sees any potential problem with Obama, you will see Hillary Clinton as his running mate.

A Republican President and a Democrat Vice President.

The same situation as when Abraham Lincoln was President and Andrew Johnson was Vice President.

And, as they say, history repeats itself.

Mathematically can't win? You need a new math teacher!

The candidate will be picked at the Democratic Convention in August.

The truth about Obama and his past will surface at the best strategic moment.

Get used to it.

MaryBeth, you wrote: "If mathematically she can't win, then shouldn't someone raise the issue that her time is up?" For Sen. Clinton to be mathematically eliminated, Sen. Obama would have to have at least 2, 208 delegates. (The 2,208 delegate figure takes into account the possibility that the MI and FL delegates could eventually be seated at the convention.) A number of sources have Sen. Obama's delegate count between 1,315-1353. So Sen. Clinton is a long way from being mathematically eliminated.

Mike, you wrote: "Have you Republicans checked the polls lately? Obama is trouncing your man McCain." The only poll that counts is the one on Nov. 4, 2008. Just eight months ago several polls had Sen. Clinton leading Sen. Obama by 20 or more points; and Rudy Giuliani leading Sen. McCain by 10 or more points. So a lot can happen in the next 8 1/2 months!

Marybeth said "Hillary could get a shot in 2012", meaning she could have a chance at the nomination. Please read the posts before you waste time commenting on things that weren't actually said.

And to explore her point further, Hillary is apparently willing to destroy the party in order to win the nomination by any means necessary. She can't win on the issues apparently, so she has resorted to the attack politics that Americans are so tired of. McCain is using the same bull as Hillary now, but it won't work for either of them. Wisconsin voters repudiated Hillary's attacks and expect Ohio and Texas voters to do the same. Hillary persists, though, and one seriously has to call her judgment into question -- she's starting to look downright delusional in her "victory" speeches...

...and speaking of her speeches, she is using speeches to attack her opponent's speeches; she is using clever turns of phrase to attack her opponent's clever turns of phrase.

What the American public now realizes is that Hillary's tactics are indicative of who she is a person and that those tactics will fail to build the coalitions necessary to enact her programs. She says she's in the solutions business, but no one is buying.

I used to support her. I was prepared to go to work for her campaign (as I did in 1992 for her husband), but her slash and burn politics made me recoil from her long enough to see the superiority of Obama's leadership skills. If anyone's in the promises business, it's Hillary, because even if she were to win, she could never deliver.

I'm really sick of the pundits and talk show hosts who constantly say that the poor and uneducated vote for Hillary. Randi Rhodes even says that the poor don't have access to newspapers and cable television so they aren't informed. Hence, they just blindly follow Hillary. What kind of bigotry is that?? It actually sounds more like a Republican viewpoint! I guess we shouldn't be electing a president -- we should be making Obama a king! Then we poor, uneducated people could just take orders from him and never make any decisions at all.

Well you are not missing anything by not seeing the video, of course you will hear the media say its a trashing that Hillary got, and then switch to Obama for his Huston I think we got lift off, seems like the watches a bit too many movies. He sure love to borrow lines never an original thought, how sad that some people cant see this.

It would be nice to get use to President Obama, however, I'm sure hillary, bill, their campaign, and some nut in Minnesota are just going to sit back and wait for the people to decide if slash and burn is the way to go.

This is the start of the sling anything we can find campaign. We have distortions, the lies, all the efforts initiated (or soon to be initiated) to tear Obama down so he will lose the nomination, just so hillary and bill can get back into the white house.

If we thought the distortions were bad before, just wait to see how things start shaping up here soon. They are about to use sex, drugs, and lies in an attempt to destroy Obama.

I hope and pray the American people are so sick of this crap and they will not let it change their vote for Obama.

Darn. I don't have hi-speed so I can't watch the video. Can someone summarize? My guess is that it wraps up Obama as the winner. if so, surprise, surprise. The media certainly didn't wrap up HIllary as the winner when she was ahead. They're (media) successfully creating a division amongst democrats. What a shame.

Why should she drop out? She should try so she is losing so what at least she is not running off and crying that shows character to fight when the odd are against you. Let all who rejected her sit and think so if Obama does get it and wins the Presidency when the mess starts to flow, when you wake up and tell yourself geez this is even worse than Bush, Hillary will be still around to remind you of all that she warned you about...so keep fighting girl you will have the last laugh.

Barack Obama can easily trounce either of the establishment candidates, who are just two sides of the same corrupt insider coin.

We are going to see a nationwide Regan revolution phenomenon over the next 6 months.

I've been waiting for this for a long time!

Marybeth:
"Hillary could get shot in 2012" ? What's wrong with you? This is a level of hate that I'm sure Sen. Obama would be ashamed to hear that his supporters are spouting. Is this what he represents? Even if you don't like the woman you don't have to spew this kind of venom.

This race is still too close to call with the remaining primaries out there. According to ABC's popular vote count, Clinton has about 49% and Obama has about 51%. That's hardly clear or decisive. The Party is torn over these two candidates. The press keeps trying to spin it one way or the other, maybe trying to influence the outcome. I'd like to hear more about how close the popular vote is, and what would happen to the count if Florida was allowed to include their popular vote (that is, actual votes counted, not delegates). Have we really heard from the people on this....all the people?

Eresha, nice post. It looks like Elvis is about to leave the building. Obama 2008!

Have you Republicans checked the polls lately? Obama is trouncing your man McCain. And it'll only get worse once the media stops covering up the fact that McCain has flip-flopped on everything and no one can trust him.

MaryBeth: "Hillary could get a shot in 2012,"

Heaven help us.

Obama's "Democrats for a Day" strike again. Say hello to a "Republican for a Day" next November if he gets the nomination.

If Barack Obama had lost ten in a row, ABC would be suggesting he drop out. Where's the fairness? If mathematically she can't win, then shouldn't someone raise the issue that her time is up? Why drag the party down. Obama could lose in November, and Hillary could get a shot in 2012, but not if she continues to behave this way. Go gracefully Hillary, and ABC needs to give her a little push.

POTUS BHO sounds okay to me...

Just as the RWers and the MSM planned it. Go figure. Months and months and months of Hillary bashing and Mr.Hope love fest from the MSM and we're suppose to be shocked that Mr. Hope is winning? Not.

Actuall get use to President McCain!!

Thank you Dems for allowing the White House to remain Republican!!

BHO... idiot.. sore losers.. Obama 08.. President Barack Obama, get use to it..
