Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs

Barack Obama has pulled almost even with Hillary Clinton in endorsements from top elected officials and has cut into her lead among the other superdelegates she's relying on to win the Democratic presidential nomination. Among the 313 of 796 superdelegates who are members of Congress or governors, Clinton has commitments from 103 and Obama is backed by 96, according to lists supplied by the campaigns. Fifty-three of Obama's endorsements have come since he won the Jan. 3 Iowa caucuses, compared with 12 who have aligned with Clinton since then.

Obama will take the ticket and in doing so the congress will also gain democrats in the house.

That would not happen if hillary was chosen.

He has what it takes to bring the sides togther.

The superdelagates should excercise their super clout and I think they will when the time comes. Everyone knows that this should have been over on March 4 but Limbaugh and others decided to muddy up our waters by encouraging a crossover of voters. Barack was robbed of victories in these states and republicans should in no way decide who our nominee is.This is flat out wrong. The real argument in this mess isn't whether Florida and Michigan should count but whether Ohio and Texas should count. It seems to me there is ample evidence for tampering with the vote. That being said I think all crossovers should have their vote removed and then lets see where the numbers lie.

"where the numbers lie."

freudian?

What I was surprised to read was that Obama stands a good chance of winning the 'swing' states. I keep hearing otherwise around here sometimes.

Polls show Obama does as well or better than Clinton against McCain in those crucial swing states.

In my opinion Obama needs to withdraw from the presidential race. How in God's name can

people vote for a man who has for 20 years been a party to this kind of hate and racism?

Obama's has called Rev Wright his friend, his spitual advisor, and his mentor. Obama

wrote a book and the title is from one of Wright's sermon.

It is clear that OBama condones this hate filled race spewing beliefs.

Pastor Wright baptized Obama and his children, he married Obama & Michelle. Wright is

also on Obama's campaign. I now know where Michelle Obama was coming from when she

said America is mean, and she is just now proud to be an American. I do not trust these

people who say one thing in public and live a different way in real life.

THere is no way Obama can explain this away. Obama needs to step down from the

presidential race and go join the Black Panthers and Farrakhan.

Obama's superdelegates don't count.

It seems not that many other people feel that way charly.

From the article:
Polls show Obama does as well or better than Clinton against McCain in those crucial swing states.

Charly just copied and pasted from an forwarded email. Look at the line spacing.

It is clear that OBama condones this hate filled race spewing beliefs.


this is coming from someone who has OBVIOUSLY not even listened to Obama.

Please post ONE hateful thing Obama has said.

Obama is probably the most intelligent political speaker I have ever heard.

Get your head out of your Religious Ass and pay attention.

Obama is going to win. Then the ship of state will finally right itself.



Charly- enjoy your religious and racist dogma ... hope it tastes yummy for you...

charly

mccain's "spiritual advisor" and friend said equally bigotted remarks..
wait much worse

and hillary's husband and spiritual advisor also said equally ugly words

its called politics
and it gets ugly

maybe you didn't know this already

none of the candidates have said and i am sure believe any of this ugliness
nor will it matter once they are president

so your opinion really isn't worth much in the bigger scheme of things and reality

and maybe some prozac.

Why does anyone bother to respond to these one-post trolls?

CHARLY don't feel bad they treat all the short time cut and paste tools who come here that way. It's not really a personal thing, we don't know you well enough yet to dislike you personally. Why don't you try posting some of your own words so that we can get to know you and have completely different reasons for disliking you????

Could Charly be Corky's husband?

This is great! Obama is going to have more deglates and take the popualr vote. The Hildabitch will get the Super degelates, who ever the hell they are. The Dems fall apart along racial lines. And we're stuck with McCain whom even the republicans don't want! This is just great! I hope the hell you all are happy.

I hope the hell you all are happy.

maybe you need to read the article?

This is good news... Obama gained delegates. As with the popular vote all he has to do is split the votes "evenly" now.

It is not over yet but a tie is a win for Obama.

He is not losing momentum... he is gaining momentum even in the elected super delegate category.

This is a good thing.

Charly-it worked for the GOP for generations! Ask Ken Mehlman about why he apologized on behalf of all Republicans to the NAACP.

He was going to bring all the black Republican Congressmen and Senators with him, but,...

"He was going to bring all the black Republican Congressmen and Senators with him, but,...""

FF for NG

BTW, you should wash you hands after typing Ken Mehlman's name. Excuse me now, I must go to the ladies room.

What's the difference between cross-over votes and open primaries?

Shouldn't all Democrats want people to vote Democrat?

This is the type of partisan BS that makes politics in this country so painful to watch.

Hillary is leading. Stop the process!

-(You know who)

The "delegates with constituents" being split makes perfect sense. My own rep (Boyda, D freshman, KS-02) has a challenging race to win re-election. Her district and state were wildly for Obama. Obama on the top of the ticket would very likely help her (several college campuses, plus he's surprisingly popular around military bases). Clinton on the ballot? She's done for. She hasn't formally endorsed Obama, yet, but I can't see her voting for Clinton.

On the other hand, the "DNC hack" superdelegates aren't nearly as concerned about what grassroots supporters might think. If they job Obama, it's not like there will be a big groundswell to replace them in the DNC. Nah, they assume the new Obama supporters will resume apathy.

Hillary's race is O - V - E - R!!!! Her campaign reminds me of Bruce Willis' character in the movie "The Sixth Sense" - dead but not knowing it.

This will virtually guarantee a GOP victory for President John McCain. When the American people take a look at an unqualified man like Barack Obama who has a racist spiritual leader, it is all but done and over.

PEOPLE NEED TO STOP READING/WATCHIN CNN TO GET THEIR "FACTS"...THEY ALSO NEED TO STOP LOOKING AT SUPPORTERS AND HOLDING THE CANDIDATES ACCOUNTABLE (EX:damon & affleck, white, ferraro, simmons, etc) WHEN A POLITICAL CANDIDATE SAYS HOW HE/SHE FEELS AND WHAT HE/SHE PLANS TO DO...THEN SHOWS YOU HOW THEY HANDLE BUSINESS...THEN THAT IS WHAT YOU SHOULD DETERMINE YOUR OPINION...TOO MANY FOLLOWERS AND NOT ENOUGH LEADERS...YOU SEE PASTOR WHITE SHARE HIS OPINIONS AND THEN ALL THE SUDDEN PEOPLE ACT AS IF OBAMA SAID IT...SAME WITH FERRARO..I SEE SO MANY ARTICLES POSTED ABOUT PEOPLE THAT ARENT CANDIDATES..AND THEN COMMENTS WITH PEOPLE DOWNING THE CANDIDATE BASED ON THE ARTICLE ABOUT SOMEONE ELSE..ITS ELEMENTRY!!!

ALSO, IF YOUR A CHURCH GOER THEN YOU UNDERSTAND, YOUR PASTOR IS HIS OWN PERSON..HE CAN INSPIRE YOU IN ONE SERMON AND THEN MAKE YOU GO "EHHH" IN THE NEXT...KINDA LIKE A PARENT..THEY HAVE THEIR OPINIONS, THEY RAISE YOU AND INFLUENCE YOU, BUT THEN YOU BECOME AN ADULT AND MAKE YOUR OWN DESCISIONS...AND MOST OF THE TIME YOUR DESCISIONS ARE MOLDED BY YOUR KNOWLEDGE AND WHAT YOUR PARENTS HAVE TAUGHT YOU...AND SOMETIMES THAT SWAYS IT IN THEIR DIRECTION AND SOMETIMES IT SWAYS IT IN THE OPPSITE DIRECTION...WITH A MORE BROADER VIEW AND A BETTER OUTLOOK..ALL THIS HOOP-LAH WITH OBAMA'S PASTOR IS BS...HE MIGHT BE THE REASON WHY OBAMA IS SOOO GOOD AT UNIFYING PEOPLE..BECAUSE HE HAS THE NEEDS OF PEOPLE FROM ALL WALKS, TO INFLUENCE HIS OPINIONS AND DESCISIONS...

yer right in one thing uta
hillary is over

but mccain as president
hahah

old man mccain that crazy loon
he's got too many flipflops
too many years to stay in war
too many lies
and too many of bushes ass particles on his nose

============
Some states ok the ability of voters to vote whoever they want in the primary such as Texas and Ohio. These "cross-over" voters are under no obligation to vote that party in the general election. Yes there is a sign off stating they you agree with the persons position you are voting for and yes you intend using the honor system but there is more chance of being hit by a meteor than anyone being called on the vote. You are correc in that this is a painful process as it the system worked as it is supposed to we wouldn't be having these conversations now and Obama would be comfortably waiting the official nod.

"Please post ONE hateful thing Obama has said".

He does not have to, his preacher does it for him.

Donnerboy, if this is goig to be your measuring stick, then charlie manson should get out of prison as he did not acually kill anyone.
