Snatching Defeat From the Jaws of Victory

I am hoping this is a desperate and vicious lie.   If it is, its damning proof that the puma crowd, riverdaughter in particular, will go to any length to sabotage a Democratic victory.  Clinton’s response to McCain’s recent ad slamming Obama for picking Biden over Hillary could just as easily apply to them: Kathleen Strand, [...]

Media Can’t Let Go of Hillary as VP

I guess flat out lying is ok in the opinion section of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.  That’s how Marianne Means sets up her ridiculous on its face argument that Barack Obama is a selfish little brat who needs to offer Clinton the VP to be appropriately “gracious”. Despite their publicized gestures of making nice, too many [...]

Roll Call: Telecoms Allowed to Spy Illegally

I don’t see any reason to pretend this is anything other than an incredibly shitty decision to allow illegal and unconstitutional behavior.  Here’s roll call highlights: Voting For this travesty: Obama, Lieberman, Hagel, Snowe, Specter, Webb, Warner, Hatch, Graham Missing the bloody vote: McCain, Kennedy, Sessions Voting Against: Clinton, Kerry, Feingold, Boxer, Schumer, Leahy … [...]

Hillary’s Supporters and Party Unity

This is brilliant (thebruceblog): Hillary is a Democrat. She embraces and champions Democratic causes. She continues in the Senate wanting to advance the Democratic agenda. She said from the very beginning of the primaries, she wants a unified party in the fall and that the differences between her and Obama “pale in comparison” to McCain. [...]

Establishment Candidates And Delusions

This election a lot is at stake.  Barack Obama is a much better candidate than John Kerry.  But if I could go back in time and ensure Kerry won over Bush, I would in a hearbeat.  This election cycle the stakes are just as high, and McCain just as damaging an alternative.  That didn’t stop [...]

Obama: Are We Entering Lesser of Two Evils Land?

I’m an Obama supporter.  I’m no PUMA: I just can’t figure out why if it is soooo important for the Democrats to win that the fingerpointers don’t pick the Democrat most likely to actually win.  I mean, they still have a choice.  If they are so concerned , they can petition the party to have [...]

Hillary Clinton Must Go

She shouldn’t be given a leadership position as a “consolation prize”.  She shouldn’t be bailed out by Obama or the party.  It has gotten to the point where Hillary and her supporters have showed their true colors, and the resulting picture is a nasty one. Hillary Clinton’s threatening civil war within the party if she [...]

We Shouldn’t Bail Out Hillary Clinton

Why? Because from the start her campaign was one afforded momentum mostly by her own sense of entitlement (and to a lesser degree by the novelty of being a female candidate). Because she’s staying in when the fight is clearly over. Because she’s hurt our chances in November by initially suggesting McCain would be a [...]

What is Hillary Clinton Doing?

As Hillary Clinton heads into a meaningless victory in West Virginia (in terms of the primary), Democrats across the nation can be heard whispering “please don’t stab us in the back!“.  Which is understandable, given her past statements that she considered McCain a better candidate than Obama!  (And we wonder why some of her supporters [...]

Obama, Clinton, and Political Favors

If you like Obama’s whole mantra of change, this ought to piss you off(emphasis mine): She has ruled it out, but a prompt withdrawal from the contest for the Democratic nomination offers Sen. Hillary Clinton the prospect of major rewards. One of the most inviting is the near certainty that the Obama campaign would agree [...]

Clintons Behind Wright’s Speech?

Oh, this is shitty. White Noise Insanity: Uh oh. There appears to be a connection to Rev. Wright’s speech to the National Press Corps. recently and the Hillary camp. The person who coordinated the speech is also a huge supporter of Hillary Clinton. From the LA Times: It was the Rev. Dr. Barbara Reynolds, a [...]

Insanity on Obama, Fox, Clinton and Markos

River Daughter’s take on Markos’s response to the Obama Fox Debacle is very confusing: I mean, just because Obama went on Fox and didn’t slay the dragon: 3.) It exposed his campaign as a bunch of liars. The Obama campaign’s press show promised people that Obama would “take on” Fox News. Of course, none of [...]

Hillary Can Still Win!

Via Nezua, exciting news for Hillarycrats!: See?  Mathematically impossible my foot!

The Truth About Elitists

The elitist slander on Obama is a favorite slur hurled on dangerously electable Democrats.  Amanda (Pandagon) nails it (emphasis mine): This piece is a really shining example of how Rove’s moronic impulses are why he’s loved. Even the dumbest internet denizens would realize that this is very silly concern trolling. Right off the bat, he [...]

Clinton Straight Up Lies (No Joke)

Yes, Hillary Clinton, that paragon of honesty, has straight up lied about the popular vote.  Here’s the grimy details.  Sigh, emphasis mine: Sen. Hillary Clinton is arguing that she is ahead of rival Sen. Barack Obama when it comes to the popular vote. “I’m very proud that as of today, I have received more votes [...]
