    I love the laugh John !!
    Too funny....

    Again, they MSM wants to waste time on Hillbot who CAN'T win.
  • DavidinPS · 1 year ago
    Okay, I really want to know. Is there some sort of coach backstage who pumps up the Hillary supporter, pops in a tooth guard, and sends him into the ring with a cry of "Elite!! Drive it home! Elite!"?

    Are you on?

    I see the headline "Obama's blue collar problem"
  • Bostonian_Queer_in_Dallas · 1 year ago
    The corporate boys club cannot stand this Obama shit...the threat to the status quo is scaring the shit outta them...all this goddam grass roots "tube" on the new fangled internet...how dare the masses get some say in our little system? Shit he just might allow for more deregulation of these "tubes" and let us have the same low high speed rates they enjoy around the world or even more grass roots power if we don't, as corporate pigs, start getting a handle on this shit. Obama is a serious threat to this system.

    This is the ONLY reason they push Hill-Billy...they have footage of Monica hugging Billy Boy and will play it ad nauseum to ensure McCain in the WH. Another right wing puppet with the corporate collective hand up his ass mouthing the words.

    Obama is a real threat.

    I hope to god he is wearing a flack vest.

    Please be sure to tell everyone over there that you got crazy comments from intelligent, smart, funny, hard-working, liberal, Americans who were really offended at your ridiculous Hillary hating rant today.

    Try to win this election without us, idiot. GO HILLARY!

    It's a good thing it's not your ball. I've bled for the right to have every citizens right to vote. So far, thanks to the politics, my vote has not counted twice here in Florida. When are people like you going to realize that we do matter. Obama has not offered anything to those that need a stable government. If he won't play ball with the lobbyists, what is he going to accomplish. You want a united party, but he has yet to unite his own personal cultures. Obviously this has become a racial contest, whts for Clinton and blks for Obama. At what point do you think the party will unite? Another thing, when I saw your guy at the plant, with his sleeves rolled up, I thought of Bush and his arrogant self at the press conference after Katrina. All show. Hillary has won the states that matter and mark more words, Obama will not win in November. Between throwing MI and FLA under the bus and this attitude that it's my ball, I play or none of us play, we are in for four more years of Bush idiocracy. Obama's elitist attitude does not play with those of us that work for a living. Michelle's attitude does not play with single moms out here trying to make ends meet. His campaign is moving forward against McCain, blowing off the rest of primaries and disrespecting Clinton. She might not win the nomination, but she has already won the respect of the people that matter.

    jaye, didn't you get the memo from hillaryrious?

    or less you are a "harding working, working class white" you are not INVITED to her party.
  • Sugapea · 1 year ago
    John you looked fabulous...you must have a whole bunch of fanatic groupies following you!

    But face it...

    We need Hillary in the VP slot or we're never gonna win in November. Nearly half of the Dem voters are behind her and if we combine the two on one spectacular Ticket....
    We can blow-away the Republican party for decades!

    Remember what Andrew Sullivan proposed a few weeks ago:

    A Hate-Filled Dream Ticket

    It's time for Obama supporters to think about it seriously!

    I caught the end of it, but why is this the hot topic, are hard working Americans or hard working white Americans only in West Virginia. Obama has won a lot of white states
    I liked the 9 houses comment, Clinton and McCain are multi millionaires but Obama is the elite snob.

    So now the entire country should want a 1950's type of southern president because West Virgina voted for the white woman. They are only voting for the white woman because she has a white husband, because racist people would never trust a single white woman

    We should be trying to bring the racist people into the new world instead of letting them drag us back into the old world.
    and
    John McCain did worse in West Virginia than Obama, so I guess he has a blue collar white voter problem too.

    They need to make you a full time correspondent. A person with intellectual honesty would be a breath of fresh air.
  • 57andFemale · 1 year ago
    You did great. And you're cute, too!
  • jimfromthefoothills · 1 year ago
    Coming undone is right on! Why do we want uneducated rural racists deciding who should lead this country? They just had their dream "god fearin man" for the last 8 years.

    As someone who spent some formative years in rural MissourUH. With the greatest affection and respect, I can say rural folk are a bunch of freaking dumb-asses.

    So, if I sent in a ballot today with my choice for president in the GE, you're saying they should just hang on to my vote and count it in November. So what if I didn't follow the rules. If they don't count my vote, written on the back of an old envelope, then they just are discriminating against me. Interesting position. Or, maybe rules matter.

    Give em hell John. Tell them what you really think about Hillary.
  • sweetauntfanny · 1 year ago
    John: Got home in time to catch the very end of your segment, and (gaahhh!) the "Bob" Dobbs (sans pipe) clone (I refuse to even try to remember his name; I can't stand that guy) was running his mouth and not letting you respond. I did appreciate your laughter when he spouted the talking point that Obama was elitist. BTW, I started to abbreviate talking point as "tp" but that might be confused with... actually, there are certain similarities, aren't there?
  • Chimpeach · 1 year ago
    Video link please!! I've been dying for someone to mention McCain's 8 houses.
