Clearly, clouding this issue with facts, here.
As expected, one of the two major Democratic candidates saw a downturn in the latest NBC/WSJ poll, but it's not the candidate that you think. Hillary Clinton is sporting the lowest personal ratings of the campaign. Moreover, her 37 percent positive rating is the lowest the NBC/WSJ poll has recorded since March 2001, two months after she was elected to the U.S. Senate from New York.

Now it's the old stories about the Lincoln bedroom that have come up.
I guess this time too, the Clinton camp will accuse Obama of something.
They seem to conveniently forget that they started this BS by flinging the kitchen sink at Obama.
Instead of playing victim again, Hillary better start enjoying this too.
She gleefully said that the attack part of her campaign was "fun".
So hope she has fun when all their sordid history in the WH comes out,
and she can have a good taste of what the rethuglicans would do to her, if
she (God forbid) is the nominee. Besides, as Bill says, if she cannot take these attacks, she should not run for President.
Hillary won't appear on Larry King, Stephanie Miller, Ed Shultz, Keith Olberman, Randi Rhodes, Sam Seder.....but this morning I saw that she went on FOX NEWS and did an interview with Greta Van Sustran..
Why does she only go on Right Wing Talk Shows?
????????
Hillary goes on the RIGHT WING sites because she is one amongst her own. Hillary has been cozying up to the RIGHT for years now, sometimes in subtle ways, sometimes not so subtle.
Hillary has been associated with a right wing prayer group called "The Family" for years, has become fast friends with lost of our old enemies a la Gingrich, Murdoch, Karl Rove, Richard Mellon Scaife and the list goes on....
So why not Greta? Heck and she's even a woman...
I will love you forever for giving us this list of donors...it is "priceless"! I will have to go and visit CNN (as I do not particularly cotton to their so called "news" any longer.
So THANKS...much appreciated!

I also think that Chelsea is not a little girl anymore.
She is nearly 30 years old, and kids younger than her are fighting for their country, and dying in Iraq and Afghanistan. If she is put out in the forefront to campaign for her mother, she should be open to taking grown up questions too. She is an adult, who is now on her own, so she does not need to be sheltered and protected anymore. Just an observation.
I wondered the same about Chelsea. Whereas I think she should absolutely speak to reporters now that she is a grown woman who is campaigning for her mother, but I did fell badly when she was asked that question about her father's meanderings.
And now she hears her mom's lies come back to her through the media ll of the time, but perhaps she's used to it having come from the family back when Billie was Prez. As we can remember, he was no George Washington when it came to the "truth".
I say that the media stand up and confront Chelsea now that she is a grown woman and make some sort of stand. Heck, if she is old enough to campaign, she's old enough to speak to reporters on the campaign trail.
Unfortunately Monica was the only one who got stained on.

GREAT FIND!
Liebermann was Left Wing back in 2000....then gradualy he became a Rightie and started hanging on with Righties..
Now lets foward 6 to 8 years ....
What Politician running for President has also started hanging out with the Right Wing crowd?
Lieberclinton?
Think about it.
Hillary is "this Year's Lieberman"...doncha know? Actually her ties with the right (as are Joey's) are deep and many.
So? They want HRC to win. What's wrong with that?
What's wrong with that is called EXTORTION!
Lest we forget, that is a no no and certainly not something that speaks for ETHICS.
By the way, Hello.
Would you go on CNN and speak for Obama as you do here? They always need white men for those pundit gallery shows.
I love it when you speak with fiery tones about Obama and Hillary. Now being that you have some connections with CNN, I was hoping we might be seeing you on the tube talking about the two.
OBAMA WILL BE DIGESTED ALIVE BY THE REPUBLICANS.
Sounds like a creepy procedure from my gynecologist...
I just wonder if the Clinton posters on here realize that or do the posters on here are just Right Wing Hacks posting on here.
I would find very difficult to believe that Clinton people who are savy enough to post on a blog would not be able to see the similtaries between Clinton and Lieberman
At this point, I think that both sides of the Primary spectrum are dug in deep, deep enough to NOT see the forest for the trees. Hillary has egged on her supporters in all sorts of ways by praising McCain and decimating Obama accusing him of all sorts of phony horrors. So my guess is that Hillary's "girls" are blind to Party (as Hillary has instructed), blind to truth (as Hillary has obfuscated the facts) and blind to betrayals. It is truly upsetting in a most profound manner.
Profile of the SuperDonors that blackmailed Pelosi
The new NBC/WSJ polls shows that Obama does better than Hillary against McCain, and people think Obama can unite the country more than McCain and least of all Hillary. Those are pretty good chances.
As for the Republican attacks, I agree we can certainly expect it, and Obama will have to face it too, but don't forget they will NEVER give Hillary a free pass. In fact with the baggage she carries, they will have MUCH MORE filth to throw at her. They are eagerly waiting for her to become the nominee.
Obama is not perfect, but he certainly carries less baggage, and right now
most polls show Obama a better candidate. Let's not forget that Hillary's negatives are MUCH MORE than her positive ratings, while Obama's is MUCH better.
I am just mad that I already left the Democratic Party so I can't leave them again!
No, I am serious. I have said all along that I would vote for the Dem candidate regardless of who wins the nomination. This new mud slinging of Clinton has turned me off. Clinton cannot win, is not winning and refuses to step aside. After watching how she is conducting her campaign I don't want someone like that in charge of this country. We already have suffered 8 years under a sneaky, devious, lying bastard. I won't vote for her, I won't vote for McCain. I just won't vote.
I have come to the determination that IF Hillary is successful in stealing the nomination, I will NOT vote for her, I will NOT vote for McCain, and I WILL write in Obama's name.
That is my way of reconciliation of all things wrong with this election.

I guess I don't see it that way. Extortion has a clear legal meaning. I don't see that here.
Gotta run, see you again later.....
GOBAMA!
John will be an excellent person on tv for the Democrats come the fall.
John will be a fresh young face...better then seeing those old crusty pundints. :)
Can you imagine if Obama (given his popularity) would also run again..This would set up the exact sisuation that we have now..Obama had stated that this was a one time shot but that was before he realized the amount of support he has mustered..
So this nightmare could replay in four years only with a war with Iran and an overwelming conservative SCOTUS..
Yikes..I have to stop drinking coffee before bedtime..
LOL, wow what caffeine can do!
I don't think it was Obama himself who limited his one run to this year, but his wife...and after all, she is the one who has to back him in this. Heck, I cannot imagine the threats and fear that family must go through each and every day he is running for President. So if his wife says no, I'm not sure how much pull all of his supporters will have on swaying him.
But who the heck knows...and at this point there is NO reason to believe that Obama will not be the Presidential nominee for the Democrats. They would be fools to mess with this one (and yes, I know...they have proved themselves to be just that over and over again).
sigh...
Went back and read the earlier comments and your comment "Clinton=Lieberman=McCain=AIPAC $$$$$$" is exactly what I was talking about. No one is reporting on this, they never do. AIPAC is strong, very strong in this country. They are more involved in our politics than most people realize.
And the donors are threatening the party? That's a highly suggestive characterization of Democrats who are actually suggesting that Pelosi is threatening the future of the party with her divisive remarks. Perhaps the Speaker has forgotten that one of the Democratic presidential candidates will be back in the Senate soon.
As for Obama fixing the big donor problem, I don't think he gathered together a coalition of small donors to buy a $350,000 lot next to the house he wanted, and then sell a strip of it back to him so he could have a nicer yard. No, that would be the major backer and donor now under indictment.

I can't tell angry we are about all of this. the school system here in the Bay area is abysmal and getting worse with each apporaching year. Just last year, I was at a store buying some work knic knacs and someone in front of me was buying things for the local school. She was scrambling for money and receipts so I asked her what it was for. She told me the class was trying to put on a play to raise money for the school since they barely had the basics needed. (and remember this is within a wealthy area). I offered to pay for her things and she was dumbfounded. She asked me WHY I would do that. I told her because our government won't.
She smiled and I paid and hopefully the kids raised enough money for what they needed. It is just shameful how badly equipped the PUBLIC schools are here...Larry Ellison be damned!
