More about the Yule Goat
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/...
I don't think that is accurate at all............
Least not among anyone that I know.
Uh, thats not fair. John McCain needs to say whether or not he would get up and walk out of a service if Hagee said that. He also needs to explain why if he accepts Hagee's endorsement then everything Hagee utters means he "endorses it," just like the propaganda media did to Obama. Whats good for the goose...
Oh, yeah, where is the 24/7 breathless reporting of the propaganda media playing Hagee's remarks over and over again?
Innocent people drowning, and McCrazy is OK with that?

if Obama were to let loose with ALL the target points she's accumulated over the years... hillary would be dead in the water. (think about it hillbots... how many nasty things has Obama said about hillary?)
Which tells me something about Obama's integrity.
That said, IF hillary pulls a coup and somehow manages to coerce enough superdelegates to her side... AND becomes the Democratic nominee for President.
I sure as HELL am NOT sitting home... OR voting for john mcsame!
I don't like her, AT ALL at this point... but having ANY Dem in the White House will change the course of this country for the better.

Soundboy Jeff--you're kidding, right?
Yeah. The better question would have been:
"Are you a Republican, or an 'Independent' who intends to vote Republican in November, no matter whom the Democrats nominate?"
.
Aside from that: I live in a blue collar mid west small city. What is driving the blue collar is the women, who feel that Hillary deserves the presidency after what Bill did to her with his affairs. the other is that alot of blue collar voters are older. the younger ones rarely vote in primaries. These older people see Hillary as bringing along Bill who will fix the economy.
And Obama is 'too young' to them. Afterall, if Obama's mother lived, she would only be a couple years older than Hillary. Both his grandmothers are younger than McCain's mother.
He is the age of the kids of many of these voters. And they think he's an upstart and needs to wait.
It has nothing to do with the so called elitist thing or skin for many. If he was a white guy they would feel the same. Of course some would vote against him because of skin but, for the most part they are not really voting against him.
But, if the media keeps up this race stuff it will turn off many. They will think they will have to listen to this crap for 4 years. They are not racist but, really don't want to talk about it. They want to know someone will fix the mess of Bush.
Two things, I want to know about that $10.000,000 by 100,000 donors Clinton is bragging about. Reports have stated the max a person can give $2300 and she reportedly has tapped her biggest donors, so who gave that amount of money. Hard to believe it was the $25 type.
Secondly, she reportedly had 9 million in cash with a 10 million dollar debt. So basically her "donors" paid her outstanding debt (I am betting she still didn't pay her bills) and that only leaves 9 million to carry on the battle in the remaining states.

And I'm 67 and an Obama supporter. I want young blood, not the status quo.
Nine more minutes until I can have some fun and forget this mishegoss!
From DailyKos:
"Before his election to the state senate, he received a master’s degree in theology, worked with the Texas Freedom Network, founded the Progressive Alliance Foundation, and performed other humanitarian work abroad. After his brother, David, was killed on 9/11 in the World Trade Center, Andrew became heavily involved in the push for the creation of the 9/11 Commission and worked with victims’ family groups in opposing the Iraq War, citing it as a distraction from the fight to destroy the terrorist networks that killed his brother.
Not bad for someone turning 35 today."

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in the state shows that Barack Obama leads McCain by double-digits, 52% to 38%.

one word... uffda
The bigger point is that these polls underestimate the number of Obama supporters who would say they would desert Clinton. Why should Obama supporters worry about an eventuality that won't happen. He's winning. They're confident he will win. What do you lose by saying you will vote for a candidate in November when that candidate isn't on the ballot.
Come August, or even this summer, if Obama is clearly ahead, and Clinton doesn't go back to whatever state she's claiming as home this week, the refusing to vote for Clinton will shoot up, and Clinton's will likely decline.

very nice... now the freaky thing.
that's my old aparment building!!
I have now decided that if Clinton continues her "scorched earth" policy and ends up with the nomination that I will vote a straight Democratic ticket with the exception of Presidential contest. NO-I will not vote for McCain. I will vote for neither and hope that we end up with a veto proof majority in the event that McCain does win.
All the energy of the next generation will have been squandered by the Clintons in their pursuit of power. And if she does lose the general election you can bet I will remember when 2012 rolls around and she tries again.....
He forgot the Boogey Man, Ralph.
