More about the Yule Goat

This Web site is doing great harm to the Democrats' chances for a win in November with this continuous Clinton hatred.
As much as voters may prefer the Democrats on most issues, McCain is winning the contest of defining who has the character and personality that swing voters expect in a president. Obama appeals to the mind. McCain goes for the gut.
McCain's war record and well-established image as a maverick Republican make it tough for Obama to assail McCain the man. Obama's rhetoric this week shows he recognizes that his issues appeal must become more aggressive and emotional. With 48% of our poll respondents citing the economy as the most important issue, Obama is hitting hard at the GOP record on job losses. He clearly has work to do. Our Reuters/Zogby poll released Wednesday shows more voters trust McCain to deal effectively with economic issues.

The motion will be for an emergency temporary restraining order prohibiting Obama from running for president, and enjoining the DNC from nominating Obama as the Democratic presidential candidate.
According to by Jeff Schreiber at America's Right.com:
A prominent Philadelphia attorney and Hillary Clinton supporter filed suit this afternoon in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania against Illinois Sen. Barack Obama and the Democratic National Committee. The action seeks an injunction preventing the senator from continuing his candidacy and a court order enjoining the DNC from nominating him next week, all on grounds that Sen. Obama is constitutionally ineligible to run for and hold the office of President of the United States.
This is a guy that was supposed to be a game changer. This is a guy who was going to be the Reagan for the left. A guy who would be able to convince independents that progressives stance on issues are the right ones. He was supposed to be a champion who inspired progressives to evangelize him.
Look how well Obama did when he proclaimed the "gas tax holiday" a gimmick. That's Obama's strength. Now look at him. His willingness to compromise on oil drilling. Sure it makes sense to compromise, but you don't proclaim your willingness to do so. You stand up and tell America that it's practically a hoax which won't lower their gas prices. But by saying he'd compromise, he's done himself damage 3-fold. 1 - his base gets bummed out. That's not good. Keep the base happy, just ask McCain. 2 - He's essentially admitted he's wrong. Not the case but it plays out that way. So he looks incompetent and has bad judgement. 3 - He looks like a flip-flopper. A same-old politician who will say anything to get elected.
Obama had this in the bag. He's probably going to lose now. It's not because of the stupid book. It's not because McCain is playing dirty. It's because Obama, probably at the behest of the same campaign people who helped Gore and Kerry lose, listened to his advisers and erred on the side of being too cautious.
She said, paraphrasing, that she was working very hard for her "opponent". She used the word more than once in the short clip I heard and it was very strange.
At first, I thought she was talking about McMansions, but then I realized she wouldn't be "working hard" for HIM......or would she?
Then, Chris Mathews (I know) was questioning it too. Was it a Freudian slip? What is she up to?
The consolation is that if she and her McKaniac followers are scheming to sabotage Obama, it will boomerang and only make him stronger, and will put the final nail in her political coffin.
Its Bill 'n Hil's decision...play along and play along with gusto or oblivion with the Bush crime family.
He wants to stay in Iraq 100 years. to accomplish this he needs a draft. bet he isn't drafting his kids. and I don't want to hear that crap about him mishearing the question either. he gave too detailed of a freakin' answer in response.
2 or 3 or 4 against this 1 is a fair fight.
when he wins, they are done.
they fear. not him.
