Political Punch

It shall go down in history that the democratic party as a party

AGAINST THE PEOPLE.

They keep on telling us that people don't matter, just vote like we tell you.

angelight:

Most of those wins were before
OBama's clan hit the fan!

Did you know that Obama owes his political prowess to Emil Jones who, after Obama wasted six years doing nada, annointed him during the seventh by having him sponsor "virtually ever-high-profile piece of legislation, angering many rank-and file state legislators who had more seniority than Obama and spent years championing these very bills!"

As state senator Ricky Hendon said about the landmark racial profiling and vidotaped confession legislation for which he had been the original sponsor,

"I don't consider it bill jacking but no one wants to carry the bball 99 yards all the way to the one-yard line, and then give it to the halfback who gets all the credit and the stats in the record book!"

That was just one of 26 bills passed into law which were handed into his inexperienced hands that year by Emil Jones, Chicago King Maker.

When Jones became senate President, he was asked "his view on pork barrel spending". He told journalist Todd Spivak "Some call it pork; I call it steak."

Clearly Obama used his earmarks to his advantage.

Earmarks in the millions were given to Chicago State University which was a favorite of Emil Jones, and James Reynolds, a long time associate of Obama ,was rewarded with a board membership.

Other earmarks included millions to Michelle Obama's employer with the implication that she has been well compensated.

Pork was also coralled for Rezko for favors done; this, needless to say, had nothing to do with his contributions to Obama's war chest.

Anyway, what I started to say is that Obama in the beginning spoke the good speak, looked good, stood tall and since no one knew anything about him.... was a very interesting candidate.

Now we know differently.

If the same people voted today, even with the press' biased opinions, Obama's record would look totally different!

It doesn't matter if Hillary wins or loses..... though I still think she's going to win>

Obama will never pass inspection when it comes to the general election!

HoosierSue: "Sorry, I didn't mean to leave out his bomber bud William Ayers. There are just so many negative associations with Obama, I can't keep track of them all. Oops! I forgot about Rezko. My bad."

You also forgot Todd Stroger who Obama endorsed in Illinois for President of the Cook County Board.

LOOKUP have you been sleeping? Where do you get the 1M? Their tax report says $4.2M. DO YOU READ PAPERS? LISTEN TO THE RADIO? HAVE A TELEVISION? His mother had a PhD (do you what that is?).
He went to the best schools in Hawaii. Whatever the Clintons have, they EARNED IIT.And, for your information, he IS NNOT BLACK. He is semi-racial. So why does he not say

Hillarys speeches are getting better! Anybody else notice that she lifted parts of her victory speech in WV from OBAMA?

Sorry, I didn't mean to leave out his bomber bud William Ayers. There are just so many negative associations with Obama, I can't keep track of them all. Oops! I forgot about Rezko. My bad.

When it comes to many white voters, Obama can't shake off the mantle off Rev. Wright and Michelle Obama. Had they been known about in January, he wouldn't have made it past Iowa. He will crash and burn in November if the Dems insist on pushing him forward.

So if its a mostly rural, white, hard-working state Obama just brushes them off?

And Obama supporters call the good people of WV and KY ignorant rednecks?

Well they have plenty of common sense and can spot a phony(on any color) from a mile away.

Obama is snooty, arrogant, and so full of himself. He chose a racist, anti-American church-then didn't have the backbone or decency to speak up or walk out for 20 years.

Every time Obama supporters trash Hillary and rural America the more votes Obama loses. Now that is pretty stupid.

Go Hillary/McCain...never Obama

Are there no blue-collar, white-working class people in Iowa, Maryland, Virginia, Vermont, Kansas, Washington, Delaware, and the 30+ states that Barack won?

Or, in these 30+ states that Barack won, are there only high-class, surburban people of leisure, college graduates and African-Americans?

And, is that what Someone wants us to believe — that in the 30+ states Barack has won, that there are no blue-collar, white-working class people in any of those states? I thought that white people were a majority in America, not a minority. I don't think we should allow ourselves to be Fooled Again!

Hillary needs to stay in the election long enough to hopefully recoup most of the $11MM she's already loaned her compaign. She'll stop once she has her money. Typical old school politician.

Rant and rave away Bomabots, he will never win the GE. We will not vote for the myth.
So many, many people are already sorry they voted for the phony.
They will not fall for the BS in the GE and the Repubs will make mince meat out of the Bomabots hit parade.
I doubt he can carry all his 57 STATES!

obama is at a loss without a teleprompter or a mentor close by. Although he has gotten better he is still learning Hillary's positions to paraphrase unscripted.

This guy has no record as a uniter. He has been given legislation to push thru in his name. His ethics are situational and he bought a house (where he still lives) with the most notorious political fixer in IL in 2005.

It's not over!!!!

Obama fell flat on his face tonight answering questions at the factory in Missouri. Obama rambled on and on boring them to death and he thru in some hmms and uhhs too. He quoted Hillary's proposals word for word. He did not connect to the Blue Collar workers period.

This entire political campaign has been about gender, age, race and media bias and very lttle to do with issues. Both Obama and Clinton have similar views on the primary issues of the war and economy. Senator Clinton has given more details on how she would solve the problems while Obama dances around calling for change. To me Obama means politics like the dirty South Chicago machine version will replace those in Washinton and socialism will replace moderate Democratic policies. This is not change for the better.
Yesterday talk radio stated that the Obama campaign had pledged $20 million to help out the superdelegates in the next election and that is why so many have jumped on the money wagon. Money corrupts. It has little to do with the most qualified candidate.

Melissa I agree completely with you. Obama is my 1st choice but I would definately vote for Hillary if she is the nominee. I would never vote republican because I don't agree with their policies. And to me it's about whose policies are better for this country. I choose not to send any more of our kids and all to a useless war that the republicans got us into. And there is no end in sight.

What is stupid is people who don't see the distinction between a pastor they may disagree with on minor issues and those who fail to see the gravity of the hatred Wright preached. Obama was loyal for decased so don't try to draw parallels -- there is a major divide in the gravity of the situations between Wright/Obama and other candidates affiliations with religious leaders. Wright was Obama's spiritual mentor. Sorry that some of you can't disambiguate the situations.

Melissa:

ONE THING I'VE NOTICED ABOUT YOU IS:

You never forward the conversation by introducing facts!

You've never shown any salient information about your beloved Barack which might give anyone an idea of how he would accomplish anything unique and wonderful for our beloved country.

You've never tapped in a credible. positive reason for anyone who is not yet in adoration of him... to change their belief that he's an empty suit whoon occasion .... his two "pastor speeches", for instance, can prove pretty two-faced even about people he supposedly cared about.

(I guess his typical white grandma would come under the two-faced topic too, since she had struggled to raise him and he threw her under the bus... first.)

All you ever seem to do is "diss" Hillary and tout B O.

hmmmmm

Melissa I'm very concerned about the Supreme Court as well. Plus I think McCain will reinstate the draft.

How can anyone call Hillary a hate monger after Obama vowed allegiance to Wright until he was afraid of the political repurcussions? I wont even get into the decades of support to the church and its message. Listen to the new pastor Moss --- it hasn't got any better.

LOUIS:
Does b o judge the intelligence of the voter on the basis of whether or not the respond favorably to HIS BS.... or only the basis of how the voter responds to Hillary's blurbs?

Are you saying that if people prefer Hillary they are woefully ignorant but that if they prefer his they are magnificently brilliant?

hmmmm

This woefully ignorant poster will continue to stick with Hillary ;- )
(B O is much too arrogant for stupid little me.)

Good point Louis

He doesn't have a problem with white working class voters, he has a problem with voters so woefully undereducated that they believe every spam email, no matter how many news stories say they are false. He has a problem with people that still cleave to the idea that black people are somehow inherently inferior.

LOL

OMG....I am so sick of hearing the word RACISM! IT IS NOT HIS SKIN COLOR! IT IS HIM AND THE RADICAL MAGNET THAT HE IS....BE VERY CLEAR ABOUT THAT. Most Hillary supporters that won't vote him are not racists....they're AMERICANS!

Melissa - I'm a 49 year old registered Republican who voted for Hillary here in Los Angeles...because I WANT HER AS PRESIDENT. The Rush thing has been debunked by the way. People are voting for who they want to win.

Melissa:

We already HAVE a BOZO for a president.

Don't replace one BOZO with another!

VOTE FOR HILLARY!!!!!

Melissa...they only had 3 one on one debates and I think it's a huge service to Americans to see just how inept Obama is at talking off the cuff. His loud scripted speeches off prompters don't impress me, and even his supporters say he's a lousy debator. Oregonians need another opportunity to see them side by side...there are still some undecideds out there....but he just runs scared.

mELISSA:

WRONGO!

the dirty laundry which will be coming out for airing shortly will all be
B O's!

If you're in for the Obama ride, bring Tide ;-)

The fact that Obama has won approx 40% of the white vote, even in states where he lost to Hillary shows that not every white american is consumed by racism, despite what many hateful people might say. God bless this WHOLE country and let's try a new message with a new messenger.

I wouldn't count on McCain winning the GE. Some Hillary supporters may cross party lines. But let me tell you there will be a lot of republicans that will also cross party lines. So it should be interesting.

the only one who has already nominated obie..... is Obama.

Hillary is still in the running.

True, Obama can afford to but more of the superdelegates with the money funded by his wealthy supporters.

True the DNC deserves to fall on it's ass this November if it does not give both Florida and MIchigan the opportunity to select their own canadidate.

True it would be a shame to lose the enthusiasm and energy and brilliance of Hillary if that's the way the election plays out.

But for the moment HILLARY IS STILL RUNNING AND DESERVES TO BE ACKNOWLEDGED AS SUCH... AND AS THE WINNER OF WEST VIRGINIA AS WELL!!!!!

I wish we could do a revote of the whole country since we have found out about Wright, Michelle, Ayers, Rezko, Islamic Jihad brother Abongo Obama, Rashid Khalia, terriorist group Hamas, Senator Meeks....is this OK with everyone? If this guy were white would he even be here? Yeah, racism is alive and well and working for Iraq Hussein Osama!

melissa:

I REMEMBER THAT LAST DEBATE WELL!

While Obsma was still struggling to release his response from his brain and the words were still stuck on his eye teeth, Hillary came up with the idea of a Umbrella of Deterence to advise Iran and other countries in the mid-east not to gear up for the BIG BOMB or the United States might support the threatened countries.

It wasn't a novel idea...... but it WAS an idea....... and B O took way too long to come up with any thoughts on it at all.

That debate was the reason Obama would never debate with the brilliant Hillary
ever again. Obama bombed that night !

He will live to bomb again.

Hopefully, sooner than later.

Lily....actually WV does matter and if Obama thought he would have won there he would have campaigned there. He only like to show up where he has the edge. Just like the Penn debate, he gets very uncomfortable when someone questions him. Oregonians gave him four different dates to debate Hillary and yet again, he runs. Makes time for basketball and pool though. Hillary would work her a*s off for this country...he'll probably fly to St. Thomas like he did for Easter, every opportunity. I SERIOUSLY CAN'T WAIT TO WORK FOR McCAIN HERE IN CALIF. WHEN THIS LOSER IS CROWNED BY HIS BILLIONAIRE LIBERALS. Only college kids, blacks and uber liberals are behind this puppet.

earful, I'm not whining at all. I'm just saying it doesn't matter. I'm afraid she's out of the running and she knows that.

LILY:

A WIN IS A WIN.

A WHINE IS A WHINE.

HILLARY is still in the running ;-)

Her winning WV really doesn't matter. Why do you think Obama is campaigning in other states. Both Hillary and Obama know he is the nonimee.

He got to where he is from money out of stolen pension fund. His crooked friends backed him to get him here. Which is the most horrible, illegal ways to get your start. He is talking holier than thou now, from what quilt? I gather he has found out how, stolen money, Lies and anti Americans can push someone up through the ranks of government first hand. Look he is living proof. He should be in jail for all his crimes not running for president. Wake up America! Don't fall for his lies and his fancy speeches any longer. Look at him for whom he is and how he got where he is. He can only Shame this Great Country, would be the only change he can offer. Go Home Obama and take Michelle and wright and ayers and all your anti- American friends with you

Let me se now. In West Virginia we have two Congressmen using their delegate vote to vote against the will of West Virginians. Which is it? Can Super delegate vote their own mind, or do super delegates vote according to the will of their voters?

All along I have heard Superdelegates saying they couldn't vote for Hillary, because their voters were in favor of Obama. Now these two Virginia Congressmen claim regardless of the will of their voters they will vote for their choise in Candidates.

countallthevotes, then he can kiss my vote goodbye. Five people in my family alone will not vote for him without a revote. Can you imagine a biracial candidate suppressing the vote. How weird it that.

Tina from Florida,

I have heard that Obama will support seating of the FL and MI delegates with no reservations as soon as he gets the nomination at the convention!!

Now I call that AUDACITY!!!

Working class can see he is a Fraud.

Many people wish they could take their votes back. Shame they can't, Obama would be history like he should be.

A vote for Hillary is a vote for America.

BK, I am going to tell you unless we have a revote and Obama wins legit he will not get my vote.

jozy, you sound like you have more hate in you than any Clinton supporter.

Jozy---- Thank you for showing us what real Obama supporters are really like. All you have done is shown the 'typical' thinking of Obama supporters.

jozy, that's a great way to get Clinton supporters to vote for Obama in Nov.

Obama and the Democratic Party is out of touch with ordinary, blue collar Americans. This is why McCain will win the presidency in November.

I would vote for Obama if we had a revote in Florida and Michigan. If he won the popular vote I would vote for him. No revote no vote.

Al, San Francisco,

Obama will bring his infamous Chicago politics into Washington, that is the "new" politics he promised....

Isn’t it at least possible that “white” working and middle class Midwestern voters favor Clinton because they perceive that she is more responsive to their issues and problems?

These Team Obama talking points—dismissing an expected blow-out Clinton victory in West Virginia as the product of ignorance and racism are disingenuous in the extreme.

Sure, there is isolated anecdotal evidence of bigotry in every state. And yes, one or two out of thousands of Obama campaign offices were vandalized with racial epithets.

But come on. No excuses. Clinton will win (if she wins) fair and square.

Obama will be the nominee and he will rock. He will pursue a new kind of politics. Both Hillary and McCain are great candidates. But they are just candidates. If we choose them, they will be ok. It's time for a fresh start in Washington. More than 15Milllion people have supported his cause and still counting. Be on board and see the change.

John Edwards is still on the ballot in WV. He is expected to take "independent" voters away from Obama. Does anyone know why Edwards kept his name on the ballot? Was he compelled to by state law? Interesting if he had a choice and choose to remain.

I get the math but the "audacity" of this man to start acting like he is the democratic nominee. Arrogant, elitist and laughing at America and how they have fallen for the "idea" that is Obama. And this issue about race, 90% African American's vote for Obama and its not about race? Give me a break!

President Hillary 08

BKMC, your assertion that white working class has always been a problem for Dems is 100% WRONG!!. This demographic has been the backbone of the party for years and Obama can't get more than 25% of their vote. This is exactly why he is not electable. Mark my words come November. Now we will be stuck with more Republicans in the White House because the American people got snowed by an expert salesman.

TO CAROL
So if West Virginia and Kentucky do not vote for your boy Obama than you say they are RACIST. That is the problem with this election, so many Obama supporters are the ones who are RACIST and use the RACE card when ever someone does not agree with you. It is so many Obama supporters that have divided the party and have thrown the Clinton's under the bus just like Obama did to his Grandmother and his Pastor. The Clinton's have done more for minorities than anyone else. People like you are responsible for what is going to happen and that is most of us Clinton supporters will now vote for McCain if the only choice is Obama Or McCain. Anyone but Obama.

If you people really want a scare just put John McCain in the WH because that's what you're playing with.

Obama will win the GE.

Carol,
Racism isn't a function of being educated or uneducated --- or even being black or white. It is the empty rhetoric of comments like yours that will guarantee that the racial divide is propogated for future generations.

The truth is a lot of the states that Obama lost are filled with uneducated racists. Period. But of course no one wants to speak the truth. Some people don't like Obama because THEY DON'T WANT TO LIKE HIM. You can't fight that or win over that level of IGNORANCE. That's why Obama has the INTELLIGENT vote. People who themselves lack intelligence, character or substance will reject Obama NO MATTER WHAT HE DOES. The fact is this world is filled with a lot of miserable people who look for anything wrong with anything positive. Despite this Obama is a gentleman and will still fight for the American people. EVEN THE ONES WHO VOTE AGAINST HIM!

We don't know if the vetting of Obama is complete or not. We may have to wait for the end of the Rezko trial for that. Maybe nothing will come of it; maybe something will.

We all know if the Wright stuff had come out before Iowa Obama wouldn't be in this race right now. He's lucky some of the so-called vetting came after millions had already voted.

JUAN!

Isn't it possible that some of us dislike Obama more because he is GREEN than because he is Black or Brown.... or tan... ?

This country IS ready for a Black president...... but that candidate would need to be more than a teflon man gifted with a preacher's voice.

He's got to be someone with substance.

He's got to be able attract supporters who make SENSE not people who make THREATS. Someone who has PLANS not someone filled with PLAINTS.

Someone who is an admixture of Martin Luther King and Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

He needs to be as proud of his country as his wife is of him.

He needs to be someone we can all look up to not for the color of his skin, but for the brightness of his vision and the brilliance of his programs.

That man is not Obama.

It's pretty obvious. Hillary has stayed in the race and is running in WV and Kentucky because OBAMA WANTS HER TO STAY IN!! He is going to lose to her by a landslide in those two states whether she drops out or not. So it is far better for him to lose to an active campaigner than someone who has dropped out, which would be totally embarassing. I would not be surprised if Obama has agreed in return to pay part of her campaign debt.

Obama is the best candidate on the horizon for the foreseeable future.

Obama is definitely using age against McCain. But I'm sure if you were to call him out on it that would make you a racist or a 'distraction.'

To Lookup
If Hillary is not the Nominee, WE WILL!
Anyone But Obama

Obama is full of lies and uses words better then anyone else...he used race and sexism to win the nomination ..he is now using age to run against Mccain....Obama is a slick used car sales man in a great suit...listen to hs words he belittles peoples and uses them beter then most politicians which makes him the most dangerous...my family and there are a lot will not vote for him ....he is a phony typical politican that has little substance was and has been and race has nothing to do with that statement...

Obama frequently twists the words of others in his mocking, arrogant monologues, so why shouldn't he expect the same? The only people who think Israel provides an excuse for militant jihadists are people like Obama. It appears that he does not know the difference between good and evil. Like Wright with his chickens coming home to roost, Obama suggests that there is an excuse for militant islam. He is an apologist for those whose views are morally abhorrent. He sees all sides and takes none. Does he truly know the difference between good and evil, right and wrong or are all views one vast and morally equivalent continuum from his perspective?

MYSpace: If you people really want a scare just put John McCain in the WH because that's what you're playing with.

Obama's new concern about Israel is just Pandering for votes just like his new concern now for Florida and Michigan
Why would Obama speak before a muslim group asking for assistance for Palestine in 1990? This concern about Israel by Obama is just so much political rhetric.

How anyone can honestly believe Obama is a change from the same old political games is beyond me. He said his association with Rezko was a 'dumb' decision, that he didn't know Wright was a rascist, that he wasn't putting down small town workers, that he wants a bipartisan administration.He was voted "Most Liberal Senator" title last year, he wants gun controls, made a deal with Rezko even while knowing Rezko was under investigation for corruption,lied about not knowing Wright's agenda, and told a liberal San Francisco audience what they wanted to hear about rural 'hicks'. He told Judicial Watch he had no records from his term in the Illinois legislature and is using a Madison Avenue slogan 'Change We Can believe In' to try to get in the White House. He comes from a wealthy Hawaiian family even though he tries to portray himself as one of the downtrodden. 100 years ago he would have been called a snake oil salesman.

WHEN ASKED
Which should be more important in choosing a party's nominee for president?
Delegate count OR Popular vote - 80% Said Popular vote
And
Obama and his supporters said the Superdelegates should not go against the WILL OF THE PEOPLE well the popular vote is the WILL OF THE PEOPLE

Hillary Or McCain 2008

At a campaign event in Beaverton yesterday Obama stated
Obama said "he has visited 57 states" and there are 57 Member States in the OIC?
OIC = Organization of Islamic Conference.

VERY SCARY
Coincidence or is he really that stupid?

And Obama suporters want him to be President.

Obama will be the nominee!!!!!

Juan A - Although there is a lot of truth to what you say, I am not as pessimistic as you are. I think there have been lots of progress in the last 60-70 years. As long as things don't blow up on us, it should only take one or two more generations to whip most of it. There will always be some of it no matter where you go in the world. With mobility and intermarriage between the various groups, it will gradually decline.

Come on, now. Obama is elite. He's trying to sell you the "I'm like you" crap so you'll vote for him. He doesn't care about anything except becoming President. Look at that fake bowling photo-op. Typical politician. Well, some people like their guns and their religion. Better to respect them than look down at them and their traditions. Kerry, anyone? Dukakis?

I am low middle class (raised by single mom who has 6 children). I have worked very hard for what I have. I am white. I am 49. I am a woman. I am voting Obama.

The same could be said about Hillary. Without Obama's people she would not win either, and no, I do not want HIllary on his ticket.

SadStateOfAffairs: Obama is just doing what our good Senator Hillary Clinton does when she lose?

Obama went to the best-known prep school in Hawaii, Harvard Law School, and worked in a law firm. Yes, he is elite; stop whining about this.

SadStateOfAffairs: Obama is jusg doing what our good Senator Hillary Clinton does when she lose?

Comming home from the store yesterday,I heard a talk radio announcer say that the Obama campaign had pledged $20 million to help the superdelegates in their next campaign. Now we know why so many came through for the most unqualified candidate. Money talks.

Sick of this hate and race................If these aqq holes wantm to remain the same let them I hope when the troops blood, bleeds they can remember who they voted for..................

Obama lives in a home worth over $2 Million dollars in an elite 'gated' community. Not too shabby!

So Mr. Uniter is going to lose WV so he picks up his toys and runs home.

Now Hillary on the other hand visits all states. Black, White, Asian, Latino Rich, Poor, Highly Educated, Not so Highly Educated, Young, Old, States she knows she won't win, States she knows she will win, ect, ect. Why? Because that is the fabric of all America. And that's what real leaders do.

Obama? Not so much.

girlinvt: You may be right but that's something the Clinton's instigated, and now they will lose.

Obama will be the nominee

Lookup If West Virginia and Kentucky cant find common ground with Obama in the primaries what do you think they will do in the general election when Obama must win the majority of the states not just the cities.Obama will lose to McCain,because he has alienated the white blue collar Americans with his bitter comments and his choice of pastor and friends

libre: Obama barely has $1m I don't think he's super rich, the Clinton have a $100m ("Super Rich") and counting.

lookup What is Obama? almost super rich?or pre-super rich?
