Fight the right, grassroots style:

More than 60 people are fighting the email smear campaign against Obama. The link below takes you to an email you can send to your friends and family or just keep it in your inbox for a ready-made response to the email smears. It also contains information on how Fox distorted statements by Rev. Wright.

We’re hoping this message goes viral (as in everywhere) but we need your help to make it happen.

More than 30 people are writing the media to demand the Clintons release their financial records—taxes, donations and earmarks.

Below is a link with more information, media contacts and sample letters written by other people.

If the media doesn’t care about accountability, then it’s up to us to make it happen.

Barack Obama held a town hall meeting in Medford, Oregon today with 1,500 people -- and he greeted another 800 in the overflow room.
This overflow problem always happens sooooo,

Why not have "A More Perfect Union" 3 City March/Rally in Pa.!
We can show our support, unity and solidarity by organizing and mobilizing 100,000 Barack Obama supporters from all over the country, to march and attend 3 large rallies(stadiums) symbolic of the 3 excellent speeches he gave last week, to take place on the same day, same time-[ 5hr event]!
We can invite guest speakers,surrogates- endorsers-celebrities (Wlll Smith is from Philly) to continue the dialogue about race relations, guests like Cornell West, Alice Walker, Dyson, Bill Richardson, etc. Think about all the singers/musicians who will want to perform, Joan Baez, A. Keys, J.Legend, Usher. Michelle 'n Barack can speak at all 3 venues!
The program;
3 main topics based on talks
We could contact the group that cleaned up Philly to help organize this---we have to fight back against those 'Forces of darkness' that wish to defeat and villify B.O. b/c of Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
I think it would be great to have a CD {1 million copies]made of this historic speech to pass out to ppl at each rally for a donation to the campaign,

Frank Schaeffe states,
"Obama is the man who reaches out to help a dying passerby and the passerby snarls, "What do you really want?" Obama came to us on March, 18 with one of the most generous and brilliant speeches that has been delivered on American soil. He spoke honestly of things all other American leaders have been too timid and self-serving to even mention. Standing behind him were the sprits of countless murdered, enslaved, tortured, lost black Americans. Their blood cries out for revenge and yet Obama offered forgiveness, perspective and understanding."
...The speech has stimulated passionate discussion on scores of blogs of varying ideological tendencies, and an article about the speech in The New York Times has provoked more than 2,250 comments.
What do you think about my idea, give me some feedback, please!

We can do this, yes, we can, but we only have 2wks---contact me

You many not agree with what Rev. Wright said... but remember-
HE SAID IT, NOT OBAMA.

To suggest that he agrees with every view the pastor has is like saying HRC agrees with cheating because she is still with Bill.

Not only did BO effectively answer why he attends the church, but he hasn't had a single incident reported by anyone to suggest he holds the political views of the reverend.

Don't get discouraged.

I can't help but think this was put out to purposely make me people question their support of Obama. It's no accident that it suddenly appeared after pundits started talking about "buyers remorse." They made up their mind as to what would damage him most, and found evidence to support their ideas.

It's obvious that those comments are incredibly striking. Why do you think no other opponent that has faced BO played this card????

"Clinton Donors Ask Pelosi to Back Off
By JEFF ZELENY
Twenty-one top contributors to Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton’s presidential campaign sent a letter today to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, essentially asking her to back off and keep out of the superdelegate fight.

“This dynamic primary season is not at an end,” the donors wrote in the letter. “Several states and millions of Democratic voters have not yet had a chance to cast their votes.”

The letter is the latest sign of a deepening rift inside the Democratic Party. The Clinton boosters were responding to comments Ms. Pelosi made 10 days ago on ABC News’ “This Week,” when she suggested it would be dangerous for the party if the superdelegates tried to take away the nomination from a candidate who had won the most pledged delegates. (And as of now, that is Senator Barack Obama.)

The letter carries an ominous tone, which stops just short of delivering a threat. The donors remind Ms. Pelosi that they are “strong supporters” of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. (A quick check, at least, shows that at least some of letter-signers have not given to the D.C.C.C.)

“We therefore urge you to clarify your position on super-delegates and reflect in your comments a more open view to the optional independent actions of each of the delegates at the National Convention in August,” the letter stated."

See original article and copy of the letter here: Link

It’s this same kind of needless threats and bitterness that the Clintons have incessantly not only advocated, but essentially perpetuated that it ripping the party apart. The manner in which the Clintons have chosen to fight for this nomination is empowering an enormous level of resentment and animosity by many of their supporters, many of whom with a rather warped rationale have pledged to support McCain as opposed to Obama (should he become the nominee) as a way of retribution.

This is not healthy for the party or the county as a whole for that matter.

Two things here:

1) This could mean that the HRC campaign knows that the Democratic leadership is getting ready to step in and stop the blood letting and thus the threat of a revolt. Basically they are saying: "It's either us or them." It's an ultimatum.

2) This gives Nancy Pelosi and the Democratic leadership the perfect opportunity to reject this ultimatum from the clinton people. This is a direct attempt to usurp their authority. This has to piss Pelosi off. This could be the straw. Let's keep our fingers crossed and write Pelosi.

The timing of this letter is interesting. Pelosi made those comments 10 days ago. Why this letter now? Maybe they are panicking b/c they understand that she may not be able to survive the Bosnia 'misspeaking' episode?

If they want to race to continue, that's their perogative. BUT, a number of leaders in the Dem. party have acknowledged that overturning the will of the voters will be the death of this party.

So HOW do we convince the millions of HRC supporters, who Don't have a financial stake in the Clinton machine, that we will both empower and serve them better than Hillary?

I haven't heard a really good "conversion" plan yet.

Do we just keep calmly reiterating our position, and wait for them to "come around", or is there a more proactive approach?

The reality is that we are a new party. The Obama supporters are comprised of Independents, Republicans, Democrats, the reformed apathetic, new voters, and anyone else with half a brain that is paying attention!

Neither of the other two candidates can win without us---really think about that. This is why we are seeing previously unheard of political alliances between folks like Rush Limbaugh and Bill Clinton. We are seeing Hillary Clinton endorse the Republican candidate. We are seeing ridiculously biased reporting by the corporate media. Why? They are all terrified. Last week a political rally on a college campus full of students gave Abraham Lincoln a standing ovation?! Just a few months ago we were bemoaning the fact that kids entering college didn't even know when the civil war took place.

Barack has been saying that he bet on the American people because we are paying attention like never before. And now we are not just paying attention we are marching, standing in lines, voting in record numbers, boycotting media advertisers, writing letters, coming together and donating more money than the moneyed interests. The folks that maintain the status quo are terrified. Now they are trying to bombard us with bogus and frightening information about Barack hoping that we will stop believing what our eyes are seeing, ears are hearing, and hearts are feeling.

The American values of hope, fairness, and unity that had been dormant in each of us for so long are coming back to life. So don't be surprised if the chorus of cynics grows even louder and more dissonant. We need to stay strong and stick together. We can do this YES WE CAN!

On the idea of a third party, I don't think it's too early to begin a serious discovery process. I think that we need to find a way to maintain the contacts and network we have here.

To really have a third party succeed, we WOULD have to have a strong leader to rally around - Barack Obama - who could voice our values and keep us unified. But if insider politics wins this time, I think we need to be prepared to form a new party that works for the people - A More Perfect Union!

Think of all of the talent represented on this blog, and all of the talent of Obama's team. We could actually do it, if we had to.

We must stand unified in our support of Obama, that is how we will win - not by disparaging comments, not by becoming hostile toward party officials, not by threatening to vote outside the party, but by making it clear - that we will support Obama and no one else - then the super-delegates will understand what they are risking if they overturn the pledged delegates.

This is more than a movement of hope, despite the Naysayer's allegations.

This is a movement of understanding, an understanding that a better America, the America of our dreams, can only be achieved through the application of ethical and moral conduct, through the acceptance of our diversity and a willingness to use that diversity for the improvement of us all.

But, it is also about the Democratic party.

A party which will inherit a new generation of voters that possess a passion, a drive and a belief in the future, that it has long been lacking.
The super-delegates risk much with a wrong decision here and they should know it.

We must stand vigilant.

We must stand together.

Yes We Can! and We Will!

“A sizable proportion of Democrats would vote for John McCain next November if he is matched against the candidate they do not support for the Democratic nomination. This is particularly true for Hillary Clinton supporters, more than a quarter of whom currently say they would vote for McCain if Barack Obama is the Democratic nominee.”

This is definitely a scare tactic to strong arm the superdelegates. How pathetic?

Re: HRC Backers Trying 2 Hijack Election | Report to Admin

By Theresa "Offering an olive branch to Clinton and McCain supporters" from NY Mar 26th 2008 at 4:15 pm EDT

I suspect this is another media frenzy that will amount to nothing. They have nothing else to report on. A poll in March is not a good indicator of what will happen in November. Polls are not a reliable indicator of anything, and they are given WAY too much importance.

When push comes to shove, and Barack is the nominee, I have a feeling these voters will realize what is really important to them--access to healthcare and ending this godforsaken war. They will realize that Barack is, and always will be, a much better option than McBush.

Re: HRC Backers Trying 2 Hijack Election | Report to Admin

By IA for Obama ☮ Mar 26th 2008 at 4:22 pm EDT

I don't think it's a scare tactic. There's little difference between HRC and McCain, which is part of the reason HRC endorsed him repeatedly. Plus, even back here in sweet old Iowa, where people really are nice and considerate, the HRC folks (NOT my neighbors, more like staff and volunteers) were vicious and nasty to Barack and his supporters in particular. Their sense of entitlement is overwhelming and their fury towards Barack, who to them is an upstart, is without limit. Each day that goes on, each day that she encourages the viciousness, the likelihood that her die-hard supporters will not vote for Barack, no matter how much they might agree with many of his policies, grows all the greater.

Re: HRC Backers Trying 2 Hijack Election | Report to Admin

By Tamsin Mar 26th 2008 at 5:04 pm EDT

You are so right IA, McClinton strategic advisers are from the same lobbying firm. They have voted alike on many issues, especially security, foreign relations, use of force in Iraq, Kyl Lieberman on Iraq.

By the way, I would like to point out something else that bothered me about Kyl Lieberman. Our supply routes in Iraq run right through Shia areas. Keep in mind that the boundaries of these nation states were arbitrarily created when they were under colonial rule. So Shias in Iraq are related/connected to Shias in Iran. Knowing this, how do you think our attacking Iran would affect our ability to move supplies to our troops?

It should have been called the blinded by ideology Kyl endanger the troops Lieberman better get used to airlifting supplies or abandoning our folks in country amendment.

Hi Everyone-
Please consider making a small donation in honor of Tiffany Klinetobe- an Obama delegate in Iowa who died in a car accident last week. Tiffany didn't have much money and it would mean a lot to her if she knew others were helping Obama's campaign on her behalf.

Hi, all! | Report to Admin

By Megan from Madtown Mar 26th 2008 at 4:03 pm EDT

I just wanted to take the time to suggest something. Hillary's campaign is slowly tanking, Titanic style. This means that a lot of people may be drifting over here to check things out. They may not be all that hip to the way we do things over here, and seeing a huge amount of Hillary bashing will just make them feel worse. Right now we need to concentrate on winning over those folks who are leaving Hillary. Otherwise, they really WON'T vote for Obama in November. So I'm suggesting just being a little more sensitive in the way you respond to people, unless they are OBVIOUSLY trolls. In that case, just report them and move on. I'm not saying you should let people abuse you, but try to be civil in your debates, and maybe tone down the anti-Hillary rhetoric. Facts are one thing, but personal attacks and unsubstantiated rumors are another.

Just a suggestion.

Re: Stop the madness! | Report to Admin

Here's my letter...

Dear Ms. Pelosi,

It is my understanding that you received a rather harsh letter from a select group of Clinton supporters who are also known for raising and donating large sums of money to the DNC.

While I cannot match someone's $143,000 dollar donation, I do know that I will be more than willing to donate what I can to help the DNC. I also know, that Senator Obama has done a tremendous job in organizing ordinary American citizens who also will donate what they can. Will twenty top donors match the will and fire of over one million Obama supporters sending in their $2.00, 25.00, 3.01, 200.00 donations? Donations that are given not to receive pats on the back or to garner favor among politicians, but given to help restore honesty, integrity, and democracy to the White House.

It disturbs me greatly when I read about high priced donors threatening Dean, sending you letters, trying to, with their money, strong arm the DNC and other politicians. This is exactly how America perceives our democratic process...hi-jacked by the highest bidder.

I hope you consider my letter and look into the faces of Americans and ask yourself, what is the right thing to do? We are counting you and the leaders of the DNC to end this hi-jacking.

My Best Regards,
Karen A. Hunter

Letter below:

Dear Speaker Pelosi,

Thank you so much for your bold, principled leadership in the Democratic Party. Your public commitment to fairness and integrity in this primary election is laudable, and unfortunately, rare.

If I were a California resident you would have my unswerving support and vote in every election. However, I live in Maryland - so I invite you to call on me any time you need contributions. Please contact me. I will donate and when possible, I will work remotely to support your campaigns. I know I speak for thousands of my friends, neighbors and fellow Democrats here on the East coast who value honesty and integrity in our Democratic politicians.

Thank you once again!

Compare his comments or HRC's to our OBAMA - it's obvious that they are NOT for change, they are for rhetoric.

Americans will see that HRC outsourced jobs to Tata in India, lied on NUMEROUS occastions and is not forthcoming with information (taxes, disclosures, etc) - nearly none have been released without being asked by a court of law. It's sad, it's old and it's over.

THERE IS ALOT GOING ON BEHIND THE SCENES. The heavy weights in the DNC are telling the HRC camp. to get out after PA. This is why today we are hearing all this talk from everywhere about who should do what. We have to take it with a grain of salt. BARACK OBAMA IS DOING WHAT HE IS SUPPOSED TO DO ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL. Let us all try to be alert as to what we are hearing and NOT SEEING. AS THE SAYING GOES:

BELIEVE HALF OF WHAT YOU SEE AND NONE OF WHAT YOU HEAR.

THE DNC IS WORKING ON GETTINGG HRC TO STEP OUT OF THIS RACE,IT WON'T BE EASY. I know that Bill Richardson and most likely Ted Kennedy are working on this as well with Pelosi and Dean.

we are going to hear more as we approach the PA. primary. HRC will not last past North Carolina. The battle to get her to step out is ON!!!!

Re: Bill Clinton | Report to Admin

By Ryno Mar 26th 2008 at 4:24 pm EDT

The DNC is spooked by the lack of donation money. On one hand they have the trusty, shady, big-dollar donors, and on the other they have the guy that people voted for, and the guy who pulls in gobs of money from small donors.

Come on DNC: the party will just get smaller and smaller if you let HRC keep going. You don't need the big bad Clintons.

if 50 or so endorse BO and all stand up together and say how much they love this country and want to see us.....together....move forward, who would hate them collectively. Forget this crap about "favors" and do what is good for this nation.

A joint press conference listing the issues and what we need to fight should be the focus....not how much they love BO or hate HRC. Its this country that will suffer by this long fight.

And now, Bill Clinton is really making provocative remarks so that all can get in the muck with him.

That's the cool thing about all of this. Through this process we define who we are and who we want to be. I want to be someone who cares about everybody's kids not as a slogan but as a way of living my life because I realize the importance of that. Through this process I am inspired because I meet others who feel exactly the same way and therefore all feelings of lonliness in a big world diminsh. Through this process we promote the election of a man who embodies who we want to be. We are already winners because we do this great thing. This is how change occurs, little waves, morphing into ever larger, towering, powerful movements of sweeping change that devestate that which does not move us toward a more perfect union.

They were also discussing how Obama keeps attacking Hillary Clinton.

No offense, and I mean that sincerely, but where are they getting their information? It does not seem plausible. I wish we could all just calm down a second and realize that we have got to defeat McCain this Novemeber so that people can actually rebuild their lives.

The Clinton campaign in the NCAA tournament:

- lost first round but was allowed to stay in after an emotional outbreak in front of the selection committee
- squeezed out a win in the second round
- tried to gain an advantage in the third round game by pulling down opponents shorts but nevertheless lost by a big margin
- tied the next game, but claimed it was more than a tie since the players on that team were so big
- lost the next round in a blowout, but was allowed to stay in the tourney by claiming that the referees were biased
- lost another round, but was allowed to continue playing by successfully lobbying for a rule change: instead of determining the winner by the number of points scored, the winner should from now on be determined by the selection committee’s evaluation who had the best chances of winning the championship game
- lost the following round as well, but, after analysis revealed a larger amount of three point goals than the opposing team, got more rules changed to stay in: All three point baskets would now count six
- Afraid of another loss, tried to lobby to be allowed to play againsts two teams that had been disqualified from the tournament due to rule violations but, as more analysis showed, would be weak opponents
- Scratched out a win by convincing players of other teams to temporarily help out and by bombarding unsuspecting opponents with kitchen sinks on their way to the locker room
- Got rules changed again to allow an unprecedented 15 rounds to determine the national champion and extend the NCAA tournament into June
- When winning still proved elusive, tried to have selection committee abolish the entire tournament
- Can still be found a year later lingering around the eventual champion throwing clods of mud

The polls are going to show that they are benefiting (or not benefiting) equally -- you heard it hear first.

However, what the pollsters fail to realize is this: Voting is emotional and this will change as we get closer to the G.E. Also, the 22% base of people who said the would leave were likely not (assumption) going to vote for either candidate any way.

For example:
*High Income AA (sensitive to tax cuts for the middle class) may go for McCain -- you would be surprised
*Working blue collar families will of course vote for McCain because this is a base the BO has the toughest time connecting with - despite the endorsements
*Young people will be the biggest lost in my opinion
*Conservative-Moderate republicans and independents are going to go to McCain or not vote at all
*Independents and cross-overs are not taken into account - I assume

The polls are for entertainment purposes only - in my opinion. The bottom-line is this: the only polls that matter (for now) are PA/NC/IN/PR/GU/MO/OR/WV/ - this other talk is geared to keep you glued to the television set:)

Re: Gotta be Good | Report to Admin

Vision Achiever,

I think you are very wrong on your first assumption. I am high income AA (single, 32y.o, make over 100k annual)and would NEVER consider voting McCain. If Obama is not elected as the Democratic candidate, I will sit out the general. Same for many people I know, (also AA and high income) who are staunch Obama supporters.
I have no problem with the middle class receiving more tax breaks. They should. We all should have the opportunity to be prosperous and support our families.

Re: Gotta be Good | Report to Admin

By Saska Mar 26th 2008 at 6:03 pm EDT

I barely (by literally a few dollars) exceed the current cap for taxable income -- one that would be raised if BO were elected and accomplished what he wants to with taxation.

And I'm okay with that. If I need to pay more taxes (proportional to my income) so that my retired parents on a fixed income don't have to lose 1/3 of their income to health insurance premiums and another 1/3 of their income to income taxes, I can totally see the benefits.

Even though I'm a divorced mom and that "upper middle class" salary doesn't go very far by the time I pay for rent, car, school, martial arts, summer camp, etc...

I am not dealing with the question of who is going to pick up the phone at 3am because I expect those hired to protect America will do their job or get out of the way so that the willing and able can --this regardless of who is prsident. No Hillary, the question is more who can I call when individual reality visits me in my individual life on an individual night at 3am. The answer remains I cannot call anyone. If there are those I can call they need not be called for they are already present and accounted for; people like family and friends. I cannot call my government to assist me with the details of living life, but I sure do expect my government to never be in the way of me dealing with my individual life, to never contribute hardship where it can contribute a better way. Mr Obama more and more is suggesting a better way.

Drive-by Supporter | Report to Admin

By Simone in Kansas, who is counting the days until she can say "President Obama" Mar 26th 2008 at 4:34 pm EDT

Last night I was driving home from work, when suddenly a car pulled up next to me and started honking.

Startled, I turned and saw a woman driver who was smiling happily at me. She began pointing to the back of my car, and giving me a thumbs up, and I realized she had seen the Obama signs I have plastered in my window.

One sign says "Women for Obama" (which I downloaded from a link here) and the other is a lovely artistic Warholish poster of Obama that says "The New Hope" (also downloaded from a link on this blog).

As soon as I got that the woman dug my Obama car, I grinned from ear to ear, and for a few seconds we made the "thumbs up" sign enthusiastically at each other, until I had to get my eyes back on the road.

It was a great moment --and I live in the red state of Kansas, which makes it even better.

A PEP TALK FOR TODAY | Report to Admin

By OLD NJ DEM - Bruce Taylor Mar 26th 2008 at 4:39 pm EDT

I've been tracking the delegate count pretty closely. Here's a comparison between today and March 4 (before the primaries occurred that day):

Pledged delegates
Obama March 4 - 1203.5 Today - 1418
Clinton March 4 - 1042.5 Today - 1252

Obama led in pledged delegates by 161 before the March 4 primaries; he leads by 166 today.

Super delegates
Obama March 4 - 196.5 Today - 215
Clinton March 4 - 244 Today - 243

Clinton led in super delegates by 47.5 on March 4; today she leads by 28.

All delegates
Obama March 4 - 1400 Today - 1633
Clinton March 4 - 1286.5 Today - 1495

Obama led in all delegates by 113.5 on March 4; today he leads by 138.

DESPITE THE KITCHEN SINK; DESPITE THE "LOST" TEXAS PRIMARY (I KNOW, I KNOW); DESPITE THE LOST OHIO PRIMARY; DESPITE THE REVEREND WRIGHT CONTROVERSY; AND DESPITE WHAT MANY HERE CLAIM IS MEDIA BIAS, Senator Obama has WIDENED his lead in the last three weeks. The Clinton definition of a "win" is getting sillier and sillier by the day. (Her last selling point is that the full moon wasn't in Aquarius when Obama won 11 straight primaries and caucuses, so those votes don't count.) The nomination is within our grasp. The Clinton campaign is collapsing.

I will vote for Hillary if she is the nominee for one reason and one reason only. Not because I like her. Not because I think she'll be a good President. Not because I trust her. But because she will get our troops out of Iraq, and John McCain will leave them there for 100 years.

@ Fox,

Actually, some of us need to stop thinking that we're entitled to the support of the opponents voters.

It is wrong for the oppnent to think she is entitled to the nomination-it is simalarly wrong for us to feel entitled to her votes.

Just as it's wrong for some to argue that our supporters necessarily should support the opponent if she happens to overrule the popular vote with super delegate votes.

Whichever party one belongs to, what all voters should do is evaluate the character of the remaining candidates, seriously examine and consider the candidates stances on the issues and vote for whom they are most closely aligned.

@ Desert..Don't fret my friend. Here's why. Although the article list 28% will defect to McCain, when you do the MATH, (Yup, the MATH), we could still be o.k.

Let's take for example, NY, where HRC won. In NY, the TOTAL republican votes were 602,747. HRC got 1,003,623. Link, let's say 28% of those votes went to McCain. McCain will get 281,014. Let's add that to the TOTAL republican voted. McCain is now at 683,761. Guess what, Obama received 697,914 votes on Feb 5. Add the remaining 72% of HRC's votes and Obama still takes NY.

If we apply the same to say Virginia,where Obama won. HRC got 347,252. TOTAL GOP votes was 481,980. Let's give HRC's 28% (sell out motha fuc!as) to McCain, which is 97,230. He ends up with 579,210 votes. Guess what, Obama ALONE received 623,141 votes in VA he still wins. Add the remaining 72% and he wins even bigger.Link

You can apply the same to CA, IL, NJ and other Dem States and the 28% to McCain is not even a dent.

So statistically, it is a disheartening figure. Mathematically, it is, (in my opinion) insignificant...Now, lets see what Chuck Todd and John King have to say about MY math...lol

"Growing Superdelegate Outrage At Clinton Tactics (Brent Budowsky)
@ 2:53 pm

I predict that sooner than people expect there will be major movement among leading superdelegates who are uncommitted toward Barack Obama.

It is increasingly clear to them, as it has long been clear to me, that the Clinton strategy of wrecking ball, personal destruction poses an increasing danger that McCain wins the White House and Democrats are hurt in House and Senate elections.

Stay tuned, I will have more to say on this soon, and predict we will see public evidence of superdelegate movement to Obama and against Clinton within a time period measured in days, not weeks.

I am detecting a significant “behind the scenes” change, in the last 48-72 hours, from a growing number of superdelegates who want the Clinton carnage to end and will soon be moved to action.

What is called the Tonya Harding strategy by Clinton will soon drive superdelegates to action to end a campaign that has now become destructive and dangerous for all Democrats."

Before the post Texas/Ohio mess of the past three weeks, Senator Obama had begun to directly challenge Sentaor McCain and ignore Senator Clinton. I think it is a great and winning strategy. But then all the DISTRACTIONS started. There is no rational reason why any Republican should win this November. McCain is weak because of his support for an unlimited time commitment in Iraq, and because he is tone deaf to the effect the economy has on average Americans. He would be Bush re-elected (admittedly a lot smarter than Bush, but that wouldn't be heavy lifting). Senator Obama should counter McCain day-by-day. Today's speech attached to this blog does just that. Obama will appear more Presidential and maybe be able to get out of this loop of nastiness (the "kitchen sink strategy" of the Clinton campaign). Plus, for those of you who are chomping at the bit to attack Senator Clinton, it will aggravate her and her people something fierce. Seems like a plan to me.

Re: I LIKE THIS STRATEGY | Report to Admin

Me too. The best strategy for Obama from now on is to ignore Hillary and focus on McCain. He can let the campaign issue memos (or send out surrogates) to counter her spin, but in his speeches and town halls he should turn his attention to McCain. I think the reason the trolls are coming out in force lately is that the Clinton ship is sinking and they are starting to panic.

Someone has him him Hillary lied at Bosnia (John King on CNN) and his answer was "Rev. Wright, Rev. Wright, Rev. Wright, Rev. Wright, Rev. Wright..." NO JOKE

Another Hillary supporter said Rev. Wright is no better than David Duke.

They are going to try to use the caricature of Rev. Wright that the media gave birth to to tear down Barack and I am afraid that it is going to work.. the Clintons will stop at NOTHING. When you think to yourself... oh no they wouldn't do that the answer is always YES THEY WOULD. THEY WILL NO ANYTHING.

They are going to paint Barack and Michelle as anit-American radical blacks....THEY ARE LAYING THE FOUNDATION RIGHT NOW.... it's horrible. And what's worse is that voters are going to by it. I am so sad I don't know what to do.

DESPITE THE KITCHEN SINK; DESPITE THE "LOST" TEXAS PRIMARY (I KNOW, I KNOW); DESPITE THE LOST OHIO PRIMARY; DESPITE THE REVEREND WRIGHT CONTROVERSY; AND DESPITE WHAT MANY HERE CLAIM IS MEDIA BIAS, Senator Obama has WIDENED his lead in the last three weeks. The Clinton definition of a "win" is getting sillier and sillier by the day. (Her last selling point is that the full moon wasn't in Aquarius when Obama won 11 straight primaries and caucuses, so those votes don't count.) The nomination is within our grasp. The Clinton campaign is collapsing.

Video Disputes "Black Separatist" Tag On Obama's Church
In the wake of the Jeremiah Wright flap, the church that presidential hopeful Barack Obama attends -- Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago -- has been the target of all sorts of criticism. They've been labeled "black separatist," even racist. Those contentions are receiving some push back from a blog called The Truth About Trinity, which has released a video that accuses the media of being one-sided in their coverage, and demonstrates that not only are white pastors welcome in their congregation, but that even white pastors who aren't all "yelly" are welcome.

Furthermore, the soundtrack choice in this video clearly indicates that Trinity welcomes all "white boys" to lift up their voices and "play" their "funky music" in praise of the Almighty.

Do not lose hope - they are bluffing because they have played their last hand - and they have nothing left to do but throw a fit.....

Take solace in the words Barack wrote in 1994 and know that we will prevail.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident” In those words, I hear the spirit of Douglass and Delany, as well as Jefferson and Lincoln; the struggles of Martin and Malcolm, and unheralded marchers to bring these words to life. I hear the voices of Japanese families interned behind barbed wire; young Russian Jews cutting patterns in Lower East Side sweatshops; dust bowl farmers loading up their trucks with the remains of shattered lives. I hear the voices of the people in Altgeld Gardens, and the voices of those who stand outside this country’s borders, the weary, hungry bands crossing the Rio Grande. I hear all of these voices clamoring for recognition, all of them asking the same questions that I sometimes at night find myself asking the Old Man. What is our community, and how might the community be reconciled with freedom? How far do our obligations reach? How do we transform mere power into justice, mere sentiment into love? The answers I find in law books do not always satisfy me – for every Brown vs. the Board of Education I find a score of cases where conscience is sacrificed to expedience and greed. And yet, in the conversation itself, in the joining of voices, I find myself modestly encouraged, believing that so long as the questions are being asked, what binds us together might somehow, ultimately, prevail.

The Clintons have been around for a long time. They know how to spot an opportunity, and exploit it at any cost. Usually by confusing everyone.

What you have to do is carry on, doggedly and recognise moments of opportunity - sound like an army major (-: when to strike with an advantage.

Look how far you've all come, pretty impressive.

Opportunities will come, just know when to exploit them.

AND don't get side tracked.

It's OK, it's just the Clintons, meanwhile some friendships need to be built with Clinton supporters.

I Lady J have had enough of this talk of Rev Wright, I have been in my church for 41 years and there have been many time that my pastor has said things that I did not agree with but I did not think of leaving the church. Church is a place that I feel is where you go to commune with God in your own manner and that all that matters. I think that it is horrible to attack a man like Sen. Barrack Obama for the words that was spoken by another man. When did the freedom of speak become the responsible of another person when made by someone else. As a human being I think that in this modern day this witch hunt on Sen. Obama needs to stop right now.

Additionally, any individual who was a supporter of Obama, and are now not supporting Obama, either:

1) They do not know what Obama stands for in terms of race relations or;
2) Refuse to acknowledge that it is Obama, NOT Wright, who is running for president.

Just as it is wrong for the oppnent to think she is entitled to the nomination-it is simalarly wrong for us to feel entitled to her votes.

It's also wrong for some here to argue that our supporters necessarily should support the opponent if she happens to overrule the popular vote with super delegate votes.

Whichever party one belongs to, what all voters should do is evaluate the character of the remaining candidates, seriously examine and consider the candidates stances on the issues and vote for whom they are most closely aligned.

From Chuck Todd and Domenico Montanaro
War of words:

Democrats who don't have a horse in the presidential race, but do have to worry about House and Senate races are starting to wonder aloud if this protracted primary fight has hit a tipping point. Every day this goes on, they say, is bad for the party as a whole. Every day this goes on, they say, is bad for the party as a whole. Remember, there's a reason that the party that gets its nominee first has won 9 of the last 10 presidential elections. Think about the most recent and memorable primary fights for presidential nominations: Ford-Reagan; Kennedy-Carter; Mondale-Hart, not a single ultimate general-election winner. And all three, to this day, have bitter partisans who still bicker about that fight. The same thing is happening with Obama-Clinton. There's a real bitterness developing that rivals these other three examples. Check out how James Carville didn't back down from his "Judas" remark on Richardson at all. In a conference call with reporters Clinton Communications Director Howard Wolfson said, "If I had said it, I would apologize, because I am representing the campaign. I did not say it, and if I had I would." Meanwhile, the Clinton campaign is using Gen. McPeak's "McCarthy" attack on President Clinton and trying to raise money off of it.

Dan Lipinski | Report to Admin

By Phil from Canada Mar 26th 2008 at 5:12 pm EDT

Is Dan Lipinksi's (Ill. superdelegate) endorsement old news or new news?

I have seen various posts on blogs; however, I don't believe I have seen it announced or confirmed by the campaign yet. I have only just now found media confirmation of this:

Link

Chicago congressman endorses ObamaMarch 26, 2008
(AP) — Chicago congressman Dan Lipinski is backing U.S. Sen. Barack Obama's presidential bid.

Lipinski had been one of the two remaining holdouts among Democratic superdelegates in Illinois' congressional delegation. He says he's endorsed Obama because of the candidate's emphasis on overcoming partisanship and uniting the country.

Lipinski's district in southwest Chicago and its southwest suburbs narrowly voted in favor of Obama over U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., in Illinois' presidential primary last month.

U.S. Rep. Rahm Emanuel of Chicago is a former White House aide to President Clinton and now the chairman of the House Democratic Conference, and he remains neutral in the presidential race.

The rest of the Democrats in the delegation support Obama.

LA Times -

Donna Brazile offers Hillary Clinton a reminder about Rev. Wright

Donna Brazile -- an uncommitted superdelegate of the Democratic National Convention and one of television's few black, female political pundits -- interjected an intriguing observation this afternoon into a discussion on CNN about Hillary Clinton's stiff-arming of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

In short, Brazile provided a pointed reminder that some voters (African Americans, in particular, we would think) might recall that Wright did not turn on Clinton's husband during an hour of need for him.

... those at the event -- at least the vast majority of them -- highly disapproved of Clinton's behavior. But they were not willing to shun him.

Brazile's none-too-subtle point: There's a potential downside to turning away, with nary a forgiving nod, from those who once stood by you.

I agree. Obama will have the nomination. The DNC is not silly. And no self-respecting democrat (no matter who you are supporting) should want to overturn democratic votes.

Obama will have more popular vote and elected delegates. So with that said, stop being negative. I understand it, we've been watching the kitchen sink and the old ways of politics used against our candidate. We've seen the media bias. But the truth is, we need to open our arms and hearts to HRC supporters. We have to calmly start addressing them and saying why we feel Sen. Obama is the best candidate.

But no more negativity to HRC. Yes, call her out...but do it on facts, not emotion. Let's learn from our leader...we can disagree without being disagreeable!

Barack's running against McCain at this point, and McCain is the only one who merits any kind of attention.

If they come here and see intelligent discussion of issues they are much more likely to be drawn in than if they see HIllary attacks and complaining.

We are letting ourselves get distracted, and I think we do more for Barack by talking about him than we do by talking against others.

I think you should go beyond mentioning the people in foreclosure--it is too easy to dismiss them as ill-advised--instead focus on how the housing crisis is hurting everone. McCain says that we shouldn't bailout deadbeats who entered into poorly considered loans, but is he thinking about how this crisis is affecting everyone? Reach out to those who bought houses with good credit and modey down who now can't take that great new job because they can't sell their house with three foreclosed homes on their block. That's where McCain's argument really loses its appeal to the boadest swath of voters.

Right now the poll of polls from Real Clear Politics shows HRC with a 17 point lead in PA. We can close this, but an excerpt from an article in TIME magazine doesn't help.

"Obama's offices, by comparison, are a little less organized. While Clinton has had Chelsea and Bill Clinton coming in for weeks, in addition to celebrities like Ugly Betty's America Ferrera, Obama's folks have had virtually no surrogate presence in state. They trail badly in political endorsements and their volunteers spend hours blacking out the Iowa contact numbers from recycled mailers while Clinton's offices has stacks of freshly-printed glossy ones with a big photo of the candidate and Rendell on the cover."

Does the campaign need MORE MONEY or MORE PEOPLE on the ground in Philly?

By Moira from Baltimore, MD Mar 26th 2008 at 5:26 pm EDT

Obama need to formulate a broadly populist message aimed squarely at the rust belt. That means that ending partisan bickering will not be job one but fighting for the little guy.

Obama needs to do what Hillary has been doing so successfully since Super Tuesday. He needs to channel his inner Edwards. That will begin to win him the working class white men.

And for all those older white women he needs to have his aides float the idea that Hillary has been such a worthy opponent, has proven to have such a large following and is such a history maker himself that when he is the nominee she will be his first choice for VP.

The fact that it is still this close, this late in the game, means that they are getting hitched whether they like it or not.

This sounds suspicicously like Bush at the outset of the Iraq Invasion-"Either you're with us or you're with the terrorists."

And look how well that turned out? Allies were turned completely off by that kind of bravado thus I suggest we not employ it on this blog.

These either/or false premises do NOT help.

All supporters/voters have choices they can exercise freely.

Again, all supporters/voters have choices they can exercise freely.

Barack's job, the campaign's job and our job as his supporters is to persuade undecided or wavering voters and earn their support/votes.

Persuade and earn.

PERSUADE AND EARN.

The O train is by no means the Dem train-Barack has been on a mission to unite since 2004 and there is no distinction of red and blue where his campaign is concerned. His appeal is broad based-there are Obamadents here, there are Obamacans here, the next generation is here, there are dissafected and apathetic voters on board this train...sweeping statements as to what all of these people should or should not do, should or should not support/vote for do NOT help. If the opponent chose to burn her bridges, that's up to her...Barack did not build a movement just to hand it over on a silver platter (those aboard the train have alot to say about that scenario).

We need to stop thinking that our supporters necessarily should support the opponent if she happens to overrule the popular vote with super delegate votes.

Whichever party one belongs to, what all voters should do is evaluate the character of the remaining candidates, seriously examine and consider the candidates stances on the issues and vote for whom they are most closely aligned.

Thanks for your thoughts, and I've read many posts today to the tune of "let's forget about focusing on HRC and stay positive!"

Positivity is great, but realism is great too. I agree we should tone down the angry rhetoric, but I think it's valid and important to provide links to articles about HRC's record, her politics, and yes - her involvement with very scary right-wing organizations.

I'm not convinced HRC will get troops out of Iraq any faster than McCain, based on her voting record. This is highly underreported through other news outlets so we should definitely provide info here. There's lots of great info about Obama on other pages in this site.

Veronica, though I respect your opinion and your perspective, I also disagree. I can understand why many people would vote for the party over the candidate, it's the way politics have been 'played' in this country for ages. My vote is for this candidate, Obama. There is only one way that Clinton can get the nomination and that is if the Super Delegates vote enmasse for her. Which will then cancel out the popular vote, the state wins and the delegate count that Obama has won and can not be beaten at. period. With that said, if the DNC- super d's do that then they are a party that I personally will choose not to support. My vote is sacred to me, the party does not own it or me. just my 2 cents.

Sheri, I know that we have people on these blogs that are not Democrats and that is the beauty of Barack's campaign. I respect the fact that a lot of us are passionate about Barack's campaign I just think we miss the point when we constantly declare OUT LOUD for the world to hear that we will not vote for HER. I understand that but why do we have to keep saying it. It just perpetuates the problem to the point that now we are faced with polls that could be damaging to Barack this fall. Everyone seems to think that her people will just fall in love with Barack and cast their vote for him because WE LOVE HIM. It is not going to be as easy as you think and stating your feelings about her so openly is not going to help win her voters over. Vote for whomever you want but declaring how much you depise her will not help Barack this fall. Free speech is your right but use it to your own advantage.

hey Donna, again I'll state that though I respect your opinion, I disagree with it. If in what I wrote you've come away with the feeling that I despise anyone, than you have misread. My opinions are in no way inappropriate nor less than adult in the way I've spoken or represented myself. Grown ups disagree Donna and at no time, again, have I been disagreeable. Thanks. I realize that some here feel the need to police the blogs and the opinions of others. I disagree, I feel perhaps you as an adult should feel comfortable in your stance, your beliefs to speak of them without needing to do anything other than speak on behalf of yourself. Now with all that said, I would like to remind you Donna that this blog is about Barack Obama, and the question was asked would we vote for Clinton to keep the party together.. which I could have found offense with, but chose instead to consider it a valid question and answer it with MY honest and appropriate answers.

Obama will have the nomination. The DNC is not silly. And no self-respecting democrat (no matter who you are supporting) should want to overturn democratic votes.

Obama will have more popular vote and elected delegates. So with that said, stop being negative. I understand it, we've been watching the kitchen sink and the old ways of politics used against our candidate. We've seen the media bias. But the truth is, we need to open our arms and hearts to HRC supporters. We have to calmly start addressing them and saying why we feel Sen. Obama is the best candidate.

But no more negativity to HRC. Yes, call her out...but do it on facts, not emotion. Let's learn from our leader...we can disagree without being disagreeable!

Clinton Donors Ask Pelosi to Back Off

Twenty-one top contributors to Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton’s presidential campaign sent a letter today to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, essentially asking her to back off and keep out of the superdelegate fight.
“This dynamic primary season is not at an end,” the donors wrote in the letter. “Several states and millions of Democratic voters have not yet had a chance to cast their votes.”
The letter is the latest sign of a deepening rift inside the Democratic Party. The Clinton boosters were responding to comments Ms. Pelosi made 10 days ago on ABC News’ “This Week,” when she suggested it would be dangerous for the party if the superdelegates tried to take away the nomination from a candidate who had won the most pledged delegates. (And as of now, that is Senator Barack Obama.)

Our percentage has to be more than that she will never get back the AA vote over 15-20% it's gone forever for the Clintons and maybe the Dem Party if they are not careful.

What about the Repubs,Indy's and youth voting for Barack and never vote for the other Dem candidate give me a break they will go somewhere else the spin is crazy.

I have been reading the articles by Barbara Ehrenreich and Stven Brant on Hillary's participation in a religious power cult called "The Family" The Huffington Post has published a few articles on this with the latest by Steven Brant. The family is a religous organization formed in 1935 based on facism and the ultra right. It is VERY scary and committed to power throughought the world. The family promotes Jesus not for the meek but for the powerful. Please go to the Huffington Post and search hillary the family and read for yoourself. I know that Hillary was a Goldwater republican and switched to a democrst.

Oh, The Family believes in war. Brings up a lot of questions that want answered. We need to know the truth!!!! Please pass this on and on!!!!

Anyone remember that?

'As a politician all I have is my word"

Was it Sheila 'someone' can't remember her name but she is a Clinton supporter.

At the time I thought, well OK, she's in a bind.

But think about that. She's talking about her 'word' to the Clintons.

But what about the people who voted for her. Is that not the real binding word?

Anyways. Not trying to cause trouble, say anything negative about the Clintons, just trying to point out how skewey things can get.

'My word is my bond' but to whom?

Yep--Obama supporters smashed the goal, so it was upped to $100,001. I think some people were bummed about that, but I think it's great. It's not a real political contest . . . it's Colbert using the nomination race to encourage and motivate supporting a good cause.

HARDBALL DISCUSSING HILLARY AS VP | Report to Admin

Chris on Hardball just had a panel discussing a possible joint ticket, with Hillary being the VP.

I'm a Republican supporter of Obama, however if he chooses Hillary Clinton as a VP, John McCain will get my vote.

I don't trust her, and I believe Obama would have to hire an official food taster. This woman cannot be trusted. There are too many suspicious deaths, lies, conspiracies and scandals tied to the Clintons. Not to mention, her political platform is diamentrically opposed to everything Obama stands for.

She is about secrecy. He is about transparency. He can be trusted. I wouldn't trust her as far as I could throw her. It would be a betrayal to the thousands, upon thousands of supporters for him to choose her because she symbolizes everything that we've come together for.

She's the past. He's the future! I hope to God that he isn't pressured into taking her on because I'd then be forced to vote for John McCain. I don't want Hillary NEAR the White House. She's sneaky, dishonest and unethical. All that Clinton garbage and stench will undoubtedly stick to Obama if he chooses her.

Once again, this is where we differ. Hillary Clinton is a pox on the presidency, and I could NOT vote for Barack if he put her on the ticket. You could, which you're free to do. But I view this woman as more dangerous than anything. I'd just as soon NOT vote or vote for John McCain rather than an Obama/Clinton ticket. Many others besides me feel this way. Not just Republicans. I've talked to numerous people who cannot abide having her on any ticket. She's a lying, cheating, deceiving, backstabbing DANGEROUS person who, to be honest, would make me fear for Obama's safety.

Yeah, I said it.

And I'm serious.

I put NOTHING past this woman. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! Vince Foster and all the other dead or otherwise missing people who've been connected to the Clintons would probably agree.

You know, I'm often asked by other women why don't I vote for Hillary. Wouldn't it be great to have a woman in the White House. Yes, I say, but the RIGHT WOMAN. It would be great to have a woman VP, but the right woman. This is why it's called a TICKET. You get both people. And I don't want both. To me, she's like a skunk. While Obama doesn't stink, once he gets close to her, the stench would be shared. SHE'D POLUTE HIM.

Thanks for the reminder, Nancy. :-) Unfortunately, Clinton was talking about Obama as a VP. Not vice versa. Also, weeks are like years in the political process, and Hillary has done so much damage to the Democratic party with her divisiveness and polarizing tactics, that in order to save the nomination, party officials may have no other choice but to pair these two together, in order to repair the damage. I fault Howard Dean and all the other spineless party officials for not stepping in sooner. They know Hillary Clinton. They know how desperate for power she is. They KNEW she would stoop as low as she had to in order to get what she wanted, and if that included torching the Democrat's chance at the White House, then so be it. Hillary is for Hillary.

Hillary's CULT Minister Problem | Report to Admin

By Libertine Mar 26th 2008 at 6:11 pm EDT

Hillary's CULT Minister Problem

A Google search will demonstrate critics consider The Family a CULT.

Hillary Clinton’s secretive religious cult organization is also called The Fellowship.

While we mostly hear about Hillary Clinton’s Methodist upbringing - Hillary Clinton has chosen to associate herself with The Family (also known as The Fellowship), a very conservative, fundamentalist cult organization.

Since Hillary Clinton has launched a frontal attack on Obama's church and former pastor, it's worth noting that she has some odd religious ties of her own. When The Atlantic was profiling her two years ago, they learned about her involvement with a secretive Cult religious organization called The Fellowship that has operated in the Washington shadows since the 1930s. The story of Clinton and The Fellowship is so bizarre The Atlantic wrote about this CULT again TODAY. In light of recent events, it's worth revisiting.

Link

Long articles have been written about Hillary Clinton's cult participation in The Family organization (also known as The Fellowship) appearing TODAY in The Atlantic, September, 2007 in Mother Jones, the Los Angeles Times Sept. 27, 2002, and this CULT was the subject of an extensive article in Harper's March, 2003. On March 21, 2008 The Nation published an article on Hillary and The Family that was published on The Huffington Post and CBS News' web site.

Link

The Family avoids the word Christian but worships Jesus, though NOT the Jesus who promised the earth to the "meek." They believe that, in mass societies, it's only the elites who matter, the political leaders who can build God's "dominion" on earth. Insofar as The Family has a consistent philosophy, it's all about power - cultivating it, building it and networking it together into ever-stronger units, or "cells."

Is it possible that Hillary's participation in this fundamentalist group - which apparently preaches the "gospel of military might" - would help explain her vote in favor of authorizing President Bush to attack Iraq? Is it possible her pro-NAFTA stance during her husband's administration comes from its embrace of "the no-holds-barred economics of globalization"? Is it possible that the sense some get that Hillary feels entitled to be president comes in part from this group's belief that "it's only the elites who matter"?

Link

Encourage any reporter covering Hillary's campaign needs to ask her about all this.

Link

A book on The Family will be published in May.

By Linda H Mar 26th 2008 at 6:13 pm EDT

WASHINGTON (CNN) — Nearly 20 high-profile Hillary Clinton backers strongly criticized Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday over her recent suggestion that Democratic party superdelegates should not overturn the pledged delegate outcome at the party's convention this August.
In a letter to the House Speaker dated Wednesday, the backers said that position is at odds with the party's original intent on what the role of superdelegates should be. (Read full letter [PDF])
"Superdelegates, like all delegates, have an obligation to make an informed, individual decision about whom to support and who would be the party’s strongest nominee," the backers wrote.
"Both campaigns agree that at the end of the primary contests neither will have enough pledged delegates to secure the nomination," they also said. "In that situation, super-delegates must look to not one criterion but to the full panoply of factors that will help them assess who will be the party’s strongest nominee in the general election."
In an ABC interview earlier this month, Pelosi said it was her belief whichever candidate ended the round a primaries with the pledged-delegate lead should be awarded the Democratic nomination by the superdelegates. That argument would benefit Barack Obama, whose current pledged delegate lead of 171 is virtually insurmountable given the party's proportional delegation allocations, even if Clinton were to win each of the remaining 10 primary contests.
In their letter to Pelosi, the backers urged the House speaker to "clarify your position on super-delegates and reflect in your comments a more open view to the optional independent actions of each of the delegates at the National Convention in August."
"If the votes of the superdelegates overturn what happened in the elections it would be harmful to the Democratic Party," Pelosi said.
Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton called the letter "inappropriate."
“This letter is inappropriate and we hope the Clinton campaign will reject the insinuation contained in it," Burton said. "Regardless of the outcome of the nomination fight, Senator Obama will continue to urge his supporters to assist Speaker Pelosi in her efforts to maintain and build a working majority in the House of Representatives."
Meanwhile Pelosi spokesman Nadeam Elshami told CNN's Deirdre Walsh: "As chair of the convention, [Pelosi] is neutral and her position has remained the same throughout the primary season."
The letter comes one day after Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid seemed to suggest Democratic leaders were in the process of working

"Regardless of the outcome of the nomination fight, Senator Obama will continue to urge his supporters to assist Speaker Pelosi in her efforts to maintain and build a working majority in the House of Representatives."

I read that as:
We'll see your 21 fat cat donors and lobbyists and raise you our 2 million supporters.
Oh, and did I mention that our 2 million supporters have already donated more money than Hillary can raise with her fat cats, PACs and lobbyists combined?

Herbert Hoover was the experienced 'maverick' moderate/conservative with an inspirational life story, hand-picked by Calvin Coolidge, whose policy towards the Depression was to do nothing and let it all work itself out.

Remind you of anyone?

Franklin Delano Roosevelt was an inexperienced, visionary liberal who set forth a series of complex acts and administrations, was modest, candid, and open with voters, and overcame critics to solve an economic crisis.

So have you for writing that statement on this blog :). Obama did not kill 4000 soldiers and waste a trillion dollars driving America's economy into the gutter by voting for the war in Iraq. Our dollar is worth less than Canadian currency for goodness sake. I remember in college we would look forward to going to Canada where our money was gladly taken. Now that won't even touch it. It's embarrassing.

Yea, thank Clinton and McCain for the judgment that has America borrowing millions from China while they poison our children with lead ridden toys. Thanks a lot.

Of course Barack hasn't been hurt by Reverend Wright... he was at first until Barack made his moving speech and the truth was exposed about the actual sermons from where the clips that caused the controversy came from, and that the actual sermons themselves preached hope and had an overall positive message.

It's clear that Hillary's only using Pastor Wright as an excuse to attack Obama, just like the right wing clowns over at Fool's News. When Barack first made his speech Hillary said she hadn't read it or seen it, now she says that Obama should have left his church, and sever ties with a man who helped him find his faith... and HER OWN CHURCH IS DEFENDING MR. WRIGHT!!!

Hillary's definitely desperate now, it is showing. I think she knows her campaign is at an end. She is in the red as far as funds go, is rapidly losing superdelegates, is beginning to fall heavily behind in pledged delegates, is behind in the national popular vote, and has been exposed as a liar because of her Bosnia visit. I'm sure her campaign will spin her being attacked on her Bosnia lie as "being swift-boated just like John Kerry was in 2004..." AAAARGH Hillary annoys me, DNC PLEASE FORCE HER TO WITHDRAW!!!! BARACK IS THE ONLY CHANCE OF UNITING A DIVIDED AMERICA!!!

Thanks to the generosity of many who donated their valuable frequent flyer miles, we sent 28 out-of-state volunteers to Texas and Ohio, and so far have another 20 going to Pennsylvania.

This means ***MORE THAN ONE MILLION MILES*** have been donated to date!!!

DONORS: It takes 25,000 miles for a ticket. So – who’s got at least 25,000 on the same airline which they’d like to donate toward making sure Barack Obama is our next President?

Step right up — I’m getting requests almost daily from volunteers who want to help but can’t afford the airfare. Donate now, please, so we can get these people on the ground where they’re most needed. We have to work harder in PA!

VOLUNTEERS: If you want to spend a week or more in PA, but can’t afford to pay your own way, contact me and I’ll try to match you with an airline ticket.

Please call me at 714-536-6104 California time. (Don’t reply on the blogs; I probably won’t see your response.)

OBAMA WILL WIN AGAINST MCCAIN | Report to Admin

By The Extreme aka Allen Norfolk, VA Navy Sailor. Really Proud member of the Barack Obama/American People Party!!! Mar 26th 2008 at 7:43 pm EDT

It's very clear that Barack has the nomination wrapped up, and that the USS Hillary Clinton (hehe had to name her that because I am in the Navy) is slowly sinking... SHE CANNOT AND WILL NOT BE OUR PARTY'S CANDIDATE!!!

With that said, Barack will SMASH McCain in the general. McCain is our generation's Bob Dole, he doesn't stand a chance against Barack in debates and on the issues... even if Barack was swift boated like John Kerry was in 2004, Barack isn't one to just take the abuse... we all saw his inspiring speech "A More Perfect Union..." and people are seeing the right wing GOP loonies like Rush, Buchanan and the clowns over at Fool's News for who they really are... pandering morons who don't care about America... the Founding Fathers must be tossing around in their graves right now!!!

We can't give up on hope. We've got to keep holding Barack's back, doing what we do best... keeping our campaign positive and about the issues. Hillary and McCain clearly represent the politics of personal character and fear, that's how George W. Bush got elected in twice. I just hope Al-Qaida doesn't drop another bin Laden video like in 2004... that's why a lot of people voted for Bush, because bin Laden denounced Bush's policies and a lot of people interpreted that as bin Laden wanting John Kerry to win... who cares who al-Qaida would vote for? THEY WILL ATTACK US REGARDLESS OF WHO IS PRESIDENT BECAUSE THEY HATE US.

Barack will hunt al-qaida down, help our failing economy, bring back affordable healthcare, help end the failing Iraq war... how many more of my fellow Sailors, soldiers, Marines, and airmen must die for Bush's lie?

I'm thinking McCain's famous temper may get the best of him during these debates. Barack is a very eloquent and intellectual speaker, and he's learned a great deal during his warfare with Billary. Look, as a Republican I do admire McCain as a war hero, but my admiration for Obama, considering how far he's come, and how high he's had to climb outweighs any of that. This man has had to fight tooth and nail for every vote he's received. Apart from the Romney fight, McCain basically has had the nomination handed to him. Barack hasn't had anything handed to him.

Be Not Afraid | Report to Admin

By N. Julio Barthson - E-Campaign Leader Mar 27th 2008 at 12:04 am EDT

Why are some of us losing faith in Barack, panicking and spreading fear among us? What is all this story about Al Gore being needed to come and save us? We have no reason to fear! Barack will win the nomination and he will unite the party for the final victory...

In recent days, I have received numerous fearful emails from supporters, spreading their panic over the perceived and alleged disaffection of Democratic and Independent voters with both Billary and Barack. They say they are afraid that the party is so divided because of the prolonged primary confrontation that even Barack would not be able to bring everybody together and win at the end. They are now suggesting that we turn over to Al Gore so that he can unite us in order to win, either at the top of the ticket (I SAY NOPE!) or as VP to Barack (LOGIC SAYS IMPROBABLE!).

Well, I beg to disagree with all of these whispers of woe and panic, and I would like to submit that Barack has established himself as the ONLY person who will be able to reunite us and bring Democrats, Independents and many Republicans together, to face the big challenge in November. Not even Al Gore will. God has chosen Barack Hussein Obama at this moment in the history of our nation to be the one who leads us back to sanity. If we fail to listen to the call from above, this country will go in a direction none of you would ever have imagined, and our children, grandchildren and descendants for several generations will never forgive us.

Hillary's CULT Minister Problem | Report to Admin

By Libertine Mar 27th 2008 at 1:11 am EDT

Hillary's CULT Minister Problem

Google search will demonstrate critics consider The Family a CULT.

Youtube link:

Link

Hillary’s secretive religious cult organization is also called The Fellowship.

Link

While we mostly hear about Hillary Clinton’s Methodist upbringing - Hillary has chosen to associate herself with The Family (also known as The Fellowship), a very conservative, fundamentalist cult organization.

Link

Since Hillary Clinton has launched a frontal attack on Obama's church and former pastor, it's worth noting that she has some odd religious ties of her own. When The Atlantic was profiling her two years ago, they learned about her involvement with a secretive Cult religious organization called The Fellowship that has operated in the Washington shadows since the 1930s. The story of Clinton and The Fellowship is so bizarre The Atlantic wrote about this CULT again TODAY. All news links are right here.

Link

Long articles have been written about Hillary Clinton's cult participation in The Family organization (also known as The Fellowship) appearing TODAY in The Atlantic, September 1, 2007 in Mother Jones, the Los Angeles Times Sept. 27, 2002, and this CULT was the subject of an extensive article in Harper's Magazine March, 2003. On March 21, 2008 The Nation published an article on Hillary and The Family that was published on The Huffington Post and CBS News' web site.

Link

The Family avoids the word Christian but worships Jesus, though NOT the Jesus who promised the earth to the "meek." They believe that, in mass societies, it's only the elites who matter, the political leaders who can build God's "dominion" on earth. Insofar as The Family has a consistent philosophy, it's all about power - cultivating it, building it and networking it together into ever-stronger units, or "cells."

Link

Is it possible that Hillary's participation in this fundamentalist group - which apparently preaches the "gospel of military might" - would help explain her vote in favor of authorizing President Bush to attack Iraq? Is it possible her pro-NAFTA stance during her husband's administration comes from its embrace of "the no-holds-barred economics of globalization"? Is it possible that the sense some get that Hillary feels entitled to be president comes in part from this group's belief that "it's only the elites who matter"?

Link

Encourage any reporter covering Hillary's campaign must ask her about this.

Link

A book on The Family will be published in May.

Crash in slow motion | Report to Admin

By Military Retiree Mar 27th 2008 at 1:38 am EDT

I had seen this coming for 3 years. It is good to see that Barack plans to do something about it.

The toxic mix: stagnant stock market over several years, coupled with historically low interest rates (free money) and questionable lending practices. Virtually over night many markets overheated with home prices doubling. The housing market became the new stock market.
When interest only loans went from 33% to 67% in California that was the leading indicator that foreclosures were on the horizon.

A few years ago I put a bid on a house at $30,000 over the asking price and it was not even in the top three bids. As a result, I decided to rent because the housing market went insane in my area. How about a deduction for renters? The government has let us down, and no one has stepped up to take responsibility.

At least Obama recognizes the problem and has a plan to mitigate the severe damage that has already been done.

I would like to see stats on the second and third order effects such as increases in the divorce and suicide rate caused by financial distress

The Fed by constantly adjusting interest rates is picking winners and losers - they need to be stopped

I think OBAMA has the most objective view on this issue and is our best chance for meaningful change
