valiant

I guess it's a good sign tho - we know the Clintons aren't going to hold back in the general. I mean Barack Obama is just too nice to play up McCain's age and infidelity - the people for that job are Hillary and Bill.

also, they're obviously the people to go after him for having a vitriolic temper

which is why the clintons should take the back seat and attack mccain on obama's behalf during the GE, allowing obama to keep his hands clean and letting the clintons do what they do best

Symmetry required gabbneb to start this.

I be freakin people out with my sarcasm

You know what? You need to hear the whole Wright sermon instead of the bits that got cut out for anti-Obama purposes.

on the fundraising front, Obama campaign has $30 mil cash on hand while Hill's campaign is saddled with $9 million in debt, leaving only $3 mil on hand

those are the numbers reported at the end of feb, btw

WaPo Fact Checker blog has this catch:

Greeting ceremony, Tuzla military airport, Bosnia, March 25, 1996.

"I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base."

so hey, richardson endorsed:

I would like to say that we are blessed to have two great American leaders and great Democrats running for President.

My great affection and admiration for Hillary Clinton and President Bill Clinton will never waver.

It is time, however, for Democrats to stop fighting amongst ourselves and to prepare for the tough fight we will face against John McCain in the Fall.

The 1990’s were a decade of peace and prosperity because of the competent and enlightened leadership of the Clinton administration, but it is now time for a new generation of leadership to lead America forward.

Barack Obama will be a historic and a great President, who can bring us the change we so desperately need by bringing us together as a nation here at home and with our allies abroad.

I know that all Democrats will work tirelessly to get him elected.

wtf hillary why lie abt this shit - i really dont understand

contempt for the voting public?

No he isn't? The nyt is I guess. The quote is presented as a response to "the widespread interpretation of his remarks"; if you got a personal attack on Obama out of that then ok, personally that's really not how i read it.

alt response: stfu fagit

yeah, seriously. you guys are really reaching.

if your interpretation of Bill's SC Jesse Jackson comment is that he was deliberately, if subtextually, provoking issues of race, it's not hard to see how that presumption supports the conclusion that Bill's still using racially coded language when talking about that very same comment.

On reflection, I'm somewhat reluctant to give that interpretation much sway, personally.

wtf hillary why lie abt this shit - i really dont understand

obama drawing close to even again; analysts will probably use this to say that obama's speech successfully managed the damage from the wright controversy

Boo-yah.

Penn dismissing Richardson's endorsement is LOL

Do you guys really check the Gallup polls daily?

Betcha you like sports too.

wtf @ green tears

One important Clinton adviser estimated to Politico privately that she has no more than a 10 percent chance of winning her race against Barack Obama, an appraisal that was echoed by other operatives.

In other words: The notion of the Democratic contest being a dramatic cliffhanger is a game of make-believe.

i like sports

yah me too

Fantasy sports and political blogs are teh opiate of the masses.

politics is my sports

i approve of richardson's new beardy look

although he still looks like horatio sanz

THAT'S SEXUAL POLITICS

is tomboto running for dickhead of the year?

^^^ the poll that had to be made

tombot's running for drunk cynic w/ access to the interweb on a thursday nite, cut him some slack ppl

I will never vote for Obama as long as I live.

If he gets the nomination, I will vote for McCain and seriously consider leaving the Democratic Party.

He's a con-man and a fraud.

I want no part of him.

He's not the kind of man I want as President.

I don't care what color he is.
