OLBERMANN: Surely the specifics of the racial aspect to this are being overplayed, aren't they? If anyone Democrat were to deliberately try to undermine another Democrat's chances of winning in November, wouldn't that just be, regardless of color, gender or anything else, would that not be political treason or something like it?
CLYBURN: You're absolutely correct. There is no question about that................

where was this great media when every scandal of bushco was dismissed?
plame, DA scandal, etc., you know them all.
where was the media???
a lot of folks—including a huge chunk of the media—will join Bill Richardson (a.k.a. Judas) in the Deep Freeze. If the Clintons get back into the White House, it will be retribution time,
http://www.newsweek.com/id/134012
As posted in the thread below, the use of the fear factor via "threats" of retribution just further evidence Clinton's desperation. So what. If she loses, which she should, she is the junior Senator from NY that will be carrying Barrack's water for the net four years without any yank having squandered all of her political capital in the monumental failure of a sickening and damaging campaign.
Old fart limousine liberals, frequenters of the DC circuit currently carrying the Clinton's water like Eleanor Clift cannot stand the fact they are currently and for now everlastingly irrelevant.
I can see Eleanor's shaky bony wrinkled finger swaggering in somene's face while her weak whiny voice weakly utters: "Watch out all you young whippersnappers for feeble failed feckless grandma Eleanor and bisqit and gravy grandpa Bill will get you if you do not support Hillary."
What a freakin' joke. These people need to leave.
If the SDs steal the nomination for Clinton, completely discarding and thwarting the will of the voters, there will be more than a mass exodus from the dem party. The dems could lose the House and White House in '08.

What happens if Hillary Clinton does somehow manage to become president? Eleanor Clift speaks for many when she says it'll be payback time:
Notables who abandoned her for Obama will get the Big Chill. "He's dead to us," a Clinton aide was quoted saying of John Kerry, who along with Ted Kennedy was turned off by the perception of race baiting that led up to the South Carolina primary. A major donor, conflicted between the two candidates and apologetic over his backing of Obama, found Hillary less than sympathetic. "Too bad for you, because I'm going to win," she snapped

Reality is that most of the party, especially the democratic leaders and professionals, see Obama as the unofficial nominee. They are trying to give Hillary the room to bow out with dignity but, she is not taking the hint.
So, they are starting to come out publicly more and more to put pressure on her and prepare those supporters who still think she will win.
That fear, plus a more general sense that Clinton's only route to victory would be through tearing down her opponent, has led even some black Democrats who are officially neutral in the race, such as Clyburn, to speak out.
---------
Then why the hell doesn't Clyburn come out for Obama?
His race is being written off in favor of so-called "Reagan Democrats" who are either ditto heads sent from Rush Limbaugh or White Rustics who aren't going to vote for an overbearing woman and rumored Lesbian in the General Election anyway, yet he tries to stay neutral.
I don't get it.
This is about destruction and getting even, this is about showing Obama you don 't fuck with the Clintons, this is about sending the message for all the ass hats in Washington that in the end you will win, but don't ever forget we can crucify you any time we want. Their goal (Clinton's and DNC), is to perpetuate the status quo.
In a rare move by his presidential campaign, network news cameras were allowed to record Obama, 46, moving up and down the court, playing a game that is almost a religion in this state.
While his relative lack of Washington experience has been repeatedly used against him, Obama's youth and athleticism could offer a dramatic general election contrast with Sen. John McCain, 71, the likely Republican nominee.

Maybe, but the Clintons are only powerful until their money holds out.
They've already lost much influence in the party over their primary stunts and, I suspect, most of their remaining big name supporters are either looking for jobs or favors or are getting paid by them.
Once the back of the Clinton Patronage System is broken, the Clintons will be surprised to see how little power they have.
Honestly, if Obama should get elected I would like to see Hillary out of politics.

Just like Dubya.
Thanks for that link to the Swamp. I don't usually read it but this morning I did and I am glad I did. The very first comment after the article is eye opening to as to the extent of Clinton's negativity. Someone spent a lot of time putting together attacks from Iowa to now. We have gotten so used to hearing her negative attacks but when you see them outlined it is really horrific.

Good morning to you. Did you have fun this morning?? LOL LOL
what a bore.
Sure they can plead with the supers...but what are they actually doing to sew this thing up toute suite????
You said calling her a liar is nasty, but why? She lied about Bosnia (by her own admission) ,lied about NAFTA, and while not actually lying about Iraq she has tried to change the history of her vote. So why is it nasty to call her a liar?
:)
You get the idea. Bascially I'm not going to support the party until it stands up to the Clintons. As soon as 50 Super D's go en masse to Obama, or someone like Rahm Emmanuel says enough is enough, then I will give again.
on youtube search the following: "the clinton chronicles 1-11" "bosnia and back again" and the mena cover up. Bill controlled things when president and blocked us from getting this information and had the power to delay and bury things,for the republicans it's pay back time. Too many lives
were lost trying to come forward and share this information with America.
In the words of Mr T ~I pity the fool~that can't see thetruth behind this corrupt twosome!!!!!

So is Rev. Wright, when he is speaking as a pastor always lying to his people? sheesh. The spin on this quote is incredibly convoluted.
When my niece is speaking, as a teacher, to her students-is she lying to them? When my tax guy, as an accountant, is speaking to me is he lying? When my physician is speaking to me, as a doctor, is he lying to me?
feh
You are the one playing a game here. When Obama speaks as a politician it does not mean he is lying.
When Hillary talks about Bosnia sniper fire, she is lying.
But when she speaks as a politician it does not mean she is lying.
When she speaks to Chelsea, as a mother, it does not mean she is lying to her daughter.
Thanks for giving us the inevitable FOX talking point .
