Political Punch

You know when I was younger I always wondered how people get duped into joining cults, becasue I never thought a human could be so ignorant. But then I saw Liberal arise, a major cult and now with Obama who has no experience, no Love for this country, a hatred for 85% of this country, an elitist who insult ordinary Americans, get donations from our enemies and so forth Well today I now know that people are dumb enough to drink the kool-aid.

Scary part is this is for the most important position in the World and people do not see the truth!

Obama has no idea how the ordinary American Black or White lives, he is an elitist who hangs out with 60's radicals and terrorists!!

It is soooo amazing how Clinton supporters want to talk about the company Obama keeps, but looks past the Clintons history. Then it is okay for Hillary to classify "hard working people" only as white. And you wonder why she is losing. Not once have her and Bill campaigned to the AA. I'm from Indiana and during our primaries I never saw Hillary in my area.

I think this election has proven that the press deserves no freedom.

I think Obama would be back at the starting gate if he were not Black!

The story of Obama is that of someone whose motives, according to his autobiography, are questionable...but he knows how to work a crowd and please the press .
Like his cousin Raila Odinga who ran for office in Kenya under the slogan "Your agent for change", and like George Bush who also chanted for "Change", Obama echoes the cheer.

But the change which seems eminent.... at least until the G E in November... will bring us back to the late 50's!

And the Clintons, who have been staunch supporters of all races...
are being treated like lepers by the press and by B O's followers because they're acknowledging this truism!
Ninety two percent of the black vote in North Carolina was for Obama.

Ninety one percent of the black vote in Philadelphia voted for Obama.

True some of these people and some whites really thought about who they were voting for when they (mis)voted B U T you cannot honestly say that this isn't exploittion of race and thus, r a c i s m!

The prestige of an honest news story.... remember them???.... disappeared early on. And the joke of Obama being swallowed by eight American flags on a podium defending his beligerant pastor lingers. His free publicity was granted again when he finally flung his beligerant pastor "under the bus". We know little of his policies but lots about r his magnificent race speech and his talks of his young impoverished life... all free publicity!

Little was mentioned of his lack of accomplishment.... of his earmarking money for Michelle's employer.... of taking money from Rezko supposedly intended for heating this landlord's broken down tenements and freezing tenants.

Meanwhile, Accomplishments of Hillary have swept under the carpet; All ears and eyes were directed towards the blue dress and Hillary's initial failed attempt at procuring universal health care..

During the last debate through which Obama stumbled and stuttered, Clinton answered a question about what to do about Iran. (Obama was still trying to get thoughts to reach his tongue).
She suggested the "Umbrella of Deterrence"... not a unique idea.... but an IDEA which might have become a stepping stone to other ideas (Although I think that it's a great idea which, used with caution and punity might prove quie wothy in its own right.

The press colored Hillary's spur of the moment response as something very suspect. Obama's posters went wild in their disdain... disremembering that Obama was still thinking of an answer!

The DNC is broken! They have effectively disenfranchised two statesfull of voters from being able to select their nominee.

The DNC considers itself G-D to the Constitution.

My point is this:

Obama is a new face. He hasn't accomplished much....so aside from his quesitonable associates there's not too much to fault him for.

He presents a neat presence, speaks well in front of a teleprompter... though I have seen his querilous side peeking through several times.

The press decided early on that they favored him.... and skewed their news stories his way on too many occasions.

There have been instances in which a story issued incorrect information... but corrections either required a password and a mouse-over.... or were omitted!

I think this election has proven that the press deserves no freedom.

Like other attention hungry people we have seen lately, John Edwards is going to milk this endorsement thing for as long as he can, so he can make television appearances, etc.

I would have to agree that he appears to be vying for the VP short list.

dl...I will always keep disagreeing with you and the minute this thing is officially McCain vs. Obama, I am running out to get my McCAIN bumper stickers and yard signs and urge all my fellow Hillary supporter that could never vote LEFTY OBAMA. McCain is the most moderate Rebublican and appeals to many centrist DEMS. McCAIN ALL THE WAY!

The only sure fire way to unite the party is to put Clinton on the ticket as veep.

Edwards thinks Obama can unite this party? Is he nuts. I've never seen such a huge split!!! He's got to be kidding. Obama is saying today Hillary would be on anybodys short list for VP, and they keep talking about him offering her the spot....UGH, I still can't vote for him with wonderful Hillary as his running mate.

To those who care:

My identity was hijacked last night in response to my posts regarding John McCain's age. As a result and given the comments issue under this blog-name I am terminating my use of Oscar Meyer. Rest assured that I will return in a different form. Please do not cry for me as I go to a better place--lunch.

Edwards doesn't like Obama?

Did you read the blog?

He basically endorsed Obama... I saw the Morning Joe interview and parts of the Todays Show interview.

All he spoke of was Obama unifying the party and how he's excited voters and brought new voter to the Dem party etc Independents and several Republicans

He said he admired Hillary but the math is not in her favor.

John Edward let the cat out of the bag... Go Obama

McCain will only be able to raise doubts in the minds of those unwilling to look at the issues and the man. How many times does Obama need to say, "America is the reason I am where I am today" before stubborn people wrap their heads around the fact that he loves America. I think most people (hopefully) care about the issues, which McCain doesn't stand a chance on. That gas tax was one of the worst policy ideas presented so far.

I do think Edwards was bitten by the jolly green giant when he came in behind Obama.And no I don't think Obama needs him as VP.Maybe if Edwards had come out for Obama early on, Edward might have been the short list,but instead he sat on his hands,And for sure Obama is going to have a long ,long memory when it is all over and done.

z..McCain won't have to do much to raise doubts in Americans minds about Obama. HE IS AN ANTI-AMERICAN MAGNET....starting with his wife and pastor...IT WILL BE AN ISSUE IN NOV IN THE GENERAL, NOT WITH THE DIM WITTED DEMS IN THESE PRIMARIES, LAST I CHECKED WERE STILL RUNNING.

I think it's humorous that Clinton supporters want the media to talk about how black voting for Obama is somehow racist. I sincerely doubt African-Americans are voting against Hillary Clinton because she's white. A.A. are voting for Obama because he's black. That's not racism. This country has never seen a black president--funny thing is they've never seen a woman either. But considering Hillary wins women by such a significant amount, then why aren't the media talking about the pervasive sexism shown by women? Because it's an illusion. Woman are proud of their history as are african americans and they vote accordingly. On that note, Hillary Clinton is not who women want to represent them.

I think Edwards is a little miffed that Obama is where Edwards expected himself to be.He dosen't like Obama, but he really can't come out and say so.
By not commiting to either Obama or Clinton, Edwards feels he can stay in the limelight a while longer.otherwise he will just fade into the background and no one will notice he is gone.

keep deluding yourself deborah... and since when is saying someone lost their bearings (last i checked a nautical term about losing your chosen direction, not the same as losing your wits or marbles or something that might actually imply ageism) equated with ageism? just because one of mccain's aides tries to portray it that way doesn't make it so. obama clearly meant that mccains comments about hamas supporting obama clearly don't jive with the "straight talk" and nonpersonal campaigning that mccain has promoted. get real.

Although I like Edward's I don't think it takes much guts to endorse someone who has won the nomination. Where was he a month ago when it may have meant something to either candidate.

The race and age matter a bit, but most people vote based on candidates’ positions (or how familiar they are with their positions) on issues.

I'm okay with all three in this order:

1. Obama
2. McCain
3. Clinton

Benabong....it's not all about policies...some get passed, some don't. We'll still be in Iraq with Clinton or Obama...get real. It's about who is the most deserving, qualified individual to move into the WH and lead/represent the American people. OBAMA.....NOT.

High road Obama said to press yesterday McCain "was losing his bearings", and believe me AGEISM will be a problem too.
I love how McCain slammed back with a Rev. Wright comment. If Obama thinks he will be able to slam McCain on age and McCain won't bring up ALL Obama's negaives...he's crazy. Let's see...American Hero, credible experience or Lefty Liberal who has worked 143 days in the Senate? It won't be tough for the majority of Americans (excluding college crowd/blacks/liberal/radicals).

I'm a Jew and I'm for Obama, but democrats will have a problem:

If Obama wins (the likely scenario):
McCain will pick a white woman as VP and attracts a lot of Clinton supporters.

Clinton wins:
McCain will pick a black VP (say Colin Powell) and will attract a lot of Obama supporters.

The damage of long drawn out primary has already been done, unless democrats find a way to heal and heal quickly.
