HI DERE, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:42 (eighteen years ago)

member of obama's LGBT group resigned over an email talking shit about the clintons

"I think that the Clinton administration has fairly ruled that out by proclaiming that Senator McCain would be a better Commander in Chief than Obama. I think that either way is impossible," she said.

i.e. she just reiterated the Obama camp's characterization of Clinton's last round of attacks re: c-in-c readiness and experience

gff, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:45 (eighteen years ago)

Nell Carter would make a great VP choice for Hillary

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:46 (eighteen years ago)

She ded.

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:47 (eighteen years ago)

yeah I know

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:47 (eighteen years ago)

other than saying they "disagree with her" the clinton campaign hasn't responded to the ferarro thing at all. obama campaign saying ferarro's comment demonstrates a "wink and nod" strategy of suggestive racial statements made by the clinton campaign.

Obama trying to seize control of the "umbrage advantage" that's been so critical to the 2008 Democratic primary.

Clinton/Zombie Nell Carter 08

clinton supporter/PA gov ed rendell, on meet the press: "But, Tim, you run against uncommitted, that's the toughest election to win. I'd rather run against an opponent anytime than against uncommitted, and Hillary Clinton got 55 percent of the vote against uncommitted."

this guy's gotta be fucking kidding, right?

Mark Clemente, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:52 (eighteen years ago)

I don't even know what that means.

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:53 (eighteen years ago)

pelosi certainly does have considerable power - the party muckamucks just havent yet decided to tell hillary its over

jhøshea, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:53 (eighteen years ago)

The grassroots support and fundraising efforts of Uncommitted have been impressive, it's true.

jaymc, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:54 (eighteen years ago)

I don't think the Clintons acknowledge any authority higher than their own egos

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:54 (eighteen years ago)

xposts - it was in regards to michigan, where obama and edwards were not on the ballot and the other %40 of the vote were from people who showed up to vote "uncommitted"

Mark Clemente, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:55 (eighteen years ago)

hahaha okay that is some real WTF shit

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:56 (eighteen years ago)

UNCOMMITTED FOR PRESIDENT

Campaigns that counted on uncommitted taking the youth vote are baffled by this year's race.

BleepBot, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:59 (eighteen years ago)

have you seen uncommitted's attack ads? BRUTAL

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:00 (eighteen years ago)

if she only got 55% and she was the only real choice, that don't look so good to me

akm, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:02 (eighteen years ago)

Sadly, I don't think we're ready to have an uncommitted candidate become president yet. Maybe it's a generational thing. Personally, I'd be elated at the opportunity to cast my vote for a incorporeal, notional non-entity to the highest elected office in the country.

elmo argonaut, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:04 (eighteen years ago)

GOD 08

suzy, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:14 (eighteen years ago)

y'know if uncommitted were a woman - of any race - he would not gotten to where he is

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:16 (eighteen years ago)

Neither Hillary or Barack could stand up to McCain/God, of that I am certain.

The Reverend, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:27 (eighteen years ago)

I'm not sure God would get business conservatives into McCain's corner, though. What are God's economic credentials?

The Reverend, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:29 (eighteen years ago)

lengthy experience serving as invisible hand in free markets

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:30 (eighteen years ago)

LOL at NO black folks appearing in crowd - except for a secret service guy - during telecast of HRC's rally at some high school in Scranton, PA last night

I live not far away from there and I know we're a SERIOUS minority in these parts, but, you know, LOLOLOLOL

Beatrix Kiddo, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:38 (eighteen years ago)

AFL-CIO preparing to mobilize against McCain on labor & economic issues

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 20:11 (eighteen years ago)

Stanley is a Nader Raider.

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 20:12 (eighteen years ago)

Michael was probably at the rally because Jan made him go.

Nicole, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 20:14 (eighteen years ago)

McCain gets pregnant by Hillary through some sort of magical mumbo jumbo.

Nicole, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 20:18 (eighteen years ago)

McCain decides to raise the baby with the assistance of Kelly Kapoor.

CNN Mississippi Exit Polls

65 years of age and older: Clinton 56%, Obama 44%

17-29 years of age: Obama 67%, Clinton 32%

Democratic voters: 59% McCain unfavorable, 37% McCain favorable

Obama voters: 55% unsatisfied if Clinton is nominee, 44% satisfied if Clinton is nominee

Clinton voters: 72% unsatisfied if Obama is nominee, 26% satisfied if Obama is nominee

deej, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:10 (eighteen years ago)

clinton voters seem like assholes

deej, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:11 (eighteen years ago)

Wow, that's a marked shift from the conventional wisdom, though, which is that Obama voters hate Hillary but that Hillary voters could live with Obama. Then again, this is Mississippi we're talking about, so I'm wondering if some of the antipathy toward Obama among Hillary voters can be chalked up to racism.

jaymc, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:13 (eighteen years ago)

Mississippi is special in that regards and not at all like the rest of the country. (wtf)

HI DERE, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:14 (eighteen years ago)

its a well known fact that hillary voters are horrible racists and cannibals

jhøshea, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:18 (eighteen years ago)

Geraldine Ferraro is getting righteously butchered by CNN analysts right now:

"She should know better, she owes Barack Obama an apology, she used to have class."

Le Bateau Ivre, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:38 (eighteen years ago)

Oh c'mon Dan, I know there are racists everywhere, but I'd think there'd be proportionally more of them in the Old South -- especially in the state where Medgar Evers and Emmett Till were killed.

AND MONSTERS.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:52 (eighteen years ago)

jhøshea, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:55 (eighteen years ago)

Yr behind the times, jaymc, polls have been clearly trending towards hil voters purporting to be more dissatisfied with the alternative than Obama voters

gabbneb, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:57 (eighteen years ago)

(That's dem primary hil voters)

gabbneb, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:58 (eighteen years ago)
