McCain Campaign Finds Hillary's Anti-Obama Playbook Helpful

I am from MI, my friend. And I can tell you that Obama will win MI. No one feels "disenfranchised" here. Everyone I know saw Clinton's ploy for what it was. Disgusting.

McCain keeps pounding the NAFTA drum. Trust me, that doesn't go well with the folks in the UAW.

The "selected" candidate will not win in November. They picked the wrong one again, that is why I am disgusted with the democrats.

That's not a very good response by Biden. It sounds like Obama isn't even allowed to run the subcommittee which he chairs, and here is wanting to run our country.

The training wheels should have come off by now.

I lost faith in the democratic party because of barack Hussein obama.

obama's got a lot more sources for special interest groups like swift boat vets to use against him than john kerry ever did, and kerry was a vietnam veteran going up against an incompetent, ignorant commander in chief that most intelligent people could surmise would be a destructive force on America.....how do you think obama will fare against a former POW who has a history of working across the aisle, is already polling stronger on national security and the commander in chief title, and has shown to be a strong contender for the votes of independents?

dl....in case your sense of history only goes back as far as last week, let me educate you......Al Gore received over 500,000 more votes than dubya in 2000, yet dubya "won" the election....how can this be? because electoral votes matter more, regardless of national polling numbers (which would indicate the popular vote %).....

chris pull up the local state polls if you want to compare numbers...

yours are wrong.

oy.

atleast get your info straight ugh.

obama's numbers are better overall...
you and the primary numbers that MEAN NOTHING in a general.

just like national polls unless they are blowouts.
oy

jane....if you were at all familiar with recent election trends, election history and Senator Clinton's character and history, and especially polling data at the time, you would reasonably come up with very favorable odds that Senator Clinton would win those states (michigan, florida, pennsylvania, west virginia, ohio, etc.) that she would need to win the White House in November....obama's poor judgment in WITHDRAWING his name from michigan's primaries, not to mention the apparent disenfranchisement of the votes of florida's and michigan's voters in the democratic race, will likely be one of many factors contributing to his increasingly inevitable failure to win the general election....he won the nomination largely because of those red states he beat her in....however, she won the more traditional Democratic states and a number of swing states as well, some by wide margins......any reasonable person would ascertain that she would have had a better chance of winning the White House than he, especially given the tenacity and seemingly invulnerable qualities her and her husband somehow possessed against republican and conservative attack campaigns....

yeah I guess mcCain hasn't seen MSNBC's vp poll

this playbook isn't even helping Hillary for VP...never mind against Obama for Pres.

and she had the wright scandal and all the rest of the garbage to throw...

McCain's got a lot less.

Chris,

FYI - Just because she won them in the Primary doesn't guarantee she will take them in the GE.

the fact remains that only Senator Clinton was capable of being the best President that our children, our troops and our country desperately need right now....stop trying to disguise your guilt for supporting a lesser candidate (mccain and obama) by blaming the inadequacies of your party nominees on her justifiable concerns about them....

No surprise here. Obama will use the same complaints made against McCain by Romney. That's just standard post-primary campaigning. Both sides collect the issues that worked against the nominee in the primaries, then amplify them in the GE. That is why the DNC was so panicked by the Clinton juggernaut post-Super Tuesday. She had discovered how to beat him and was doing it until the DNC jiggered the superdelegates and the count in Michigan and Florida.

Obama was the weaker nominee. The pundits said so and the party knew it. Obama was 'selected'. Now they have to live with it and blaming Clinton is how they intend to cover their own prodigious posteriors post-election.

Politics: the art of making the unacceptable believable.

what happened, barack? it didn't take you very long to abandon your church of 20 years once you realized it would be politically beneficial for you (which is the same reason why you JOINED)....didn't you realize it would also be in your political interest to do something as a senate chairman when you had the chance?....

obama beat Hillary because he had a better strategy to win the nomination.....however, only Senator Clinton could have beaten mccain because she had a better plan to win the White House (winning the states that will decide the election)....in case you obama lemmings forgot, electoral votes will be the only ones that matter in November and only Senator Clinton would have won enough....

Jane what would you tell the workers. Why were the jobs eliminated. GM is fighting for it life and more jobs will be lost. Way to expensive to build cars in the US with union load and prior employees.

michelle.....yeah, because obama can beat mccain in Alaska, oklahoma, nebraska, and other democratic strongholds that he beat Clinton in...

What's the news? Wasn't Hillary and McCain campaigning together from the beginning? Trust me, Hillary shared any bit of information she got from her opposition trash pickers. She had a pact with the conservatives that she would help them destroy Obama, if they left her alone.
So far they have failed, but we can count on the subbmissive personalities to keep on repeating what ever they are told to.

Not holding hearings should be a real indication for us on how he will run the White House. Experience and the desire to defeat Hillary and now McCain at any cost.

Yes, let Obama meet him in Ohio and have McCain keep repeating how great NAFTA is in front of laid-off auto workers! LOL!

McCain in clueless!

McCain go ahead and use Hillary's playbook against Obama.

Hillary lost.
