(8 comments) SHARE Sunday, April 27, 2008 Why Clinton is SO far behind in the Pledge Delegate Count
If Obama's percentage of the popular vote (not counting Florida and Michigan) gave him an equivalent percentage of delegates, he'd be ahead by about 47 delegates. How come he leads by 158?
Answer cause of the liberal bias in the method by which this party selects its delegates. This bias is one reason why the Democratic Party's Presidential nominees tend to be too far left to win the general.

Rev. Wright was sure to be brought up.
"Bitter" was definitely on the agenda.
Patriotism is on the list all the time.
Why wasn't Obama ready to address these issues?
Whose fault was it? Did his "handlers" screw up? Was ABC an ole meanie for asking Obama questions that he should have had 100% focus-group-approved responses for? Did Obama forget to study for his orals? Was it his inerperience showing?

Prior to Bush I was thoroughly and completely independent. I held both Parties in equal disrepute.
Then slowly over the last 7 years I began to become an anti-Republican. I started aligning myself with the Democrats. I started defending the Democrats and actually made a few political donations to them.
But I never crossed the line and called myself a Democrat.

Remember after the 2006 election how disappointed Democrats were when they lost vote after vote. Congress just couldn't get it done. They couldn't end the war. They couldn't pass SCHIP. They couldn't stop torture. They couldn't stop illegal wiretaps. And while the mean ole Republicans were at fault, it was the dad gum moderates within the Democratic Party itself who enabled them ... or so the story went.

When the Obama campaign made its claim of racism against Hillary after the New Hampshire primary they made a booboo. A big one. Prior to that Clinton's supporters were open to entertaining a vote for Obama. Maybe he'd be OK.
The evening of Hillary's win in New Hampshire the claim came out that Hillary had somehow cheated. Somehow she had gotten white folks to vote for her because she was white and Obama was black.

The media was wrong about the war in Iraq. They fell for Bush and the neoCONs' story hook, line and sinker. They enabled the Republicans to start a unilateral war of choice by shoveling misinformation and burying the truth. Honest debate was brushed aside as irrelevant at best, unpatriotic at worse.
The media is doing it again.
Sometime in December, the media decided to get on the Obama bandwagon.

Ever since Obama lost New Hampshire, the Obama Campaign has been playing the race card. They have been manufacturing race-based attacks on the Clintons fast and furiously at every opportunity. If a black person claims that a white person is a racist, it must be true.
Come on. Get real.

What's the purpose of the Superdelegates? To prevent another McGovern from winning the Democratic nomination.
Obama is George McGovern incarnate. Is History destined to repeat itself?
(4 comments) SHARE Sunday, March 23, 2008 So ... everything that Obama says isn't racist yet anything a Clinton says is?
The Obama people have been whining about the Clintons' alleged racist comments and tactics since New Hampshire. Actually they've been shouting about it at the tops of their lungs. Horse manure!
Double speak and double standards all rolled up into one.
