There's no other word for it. I hope that the MSM reports this.

the night before March the 4th people were very worried about the conventions and Obama still pulled ahead. We need to stay positive because we will still come out on top. When I'm there tomorrow I will report any irregularities.

can you contact an Obama campaign lawyer? Do you have access to attorneys?

information to the leaders of the local campaign. I emailed them often prior to 3/4 about things I was hearing and they forwarded all my concerns straight to the top!

just to show how pumped people are about being a delegate:
She researched more after we talked and she is now a delegate for Obama tomorrow. She is so excited. She called me the next day, 3/5, to tell me.

will be at D12 convention at the Gaylord tomorrow - where are you going to be?

It's going to be packed for sure. I am looking forward to it. Registration starts at 8:00a.m. so I will have coffee in hand when the doors open. Tarrant County is also part of District 9 and my co-worker will be there at the TCC East Campus. They had a mock conventation the other week and ran through it twice! I was impressed. High-fived her since she didn't know what a primary was two months ago!

Rove? I know he wanted to.
Link
Just days after the November 2004 election, Bill Clinton pulled Rove aside at the dedication of the William J. Clinton Presidential Library in Arkansas. "Hey, you did a marvelous job, it was just marvelous what you did," Clinton told Rove, according to the book "The Way to Win: Taking the White House in 2008," by John F. Harris and Mark Halperin. "I want to get you down to the library. I want to talk politics with you. You just did an incredible job, and I'd like to really get together with you and I think we could have a great conversation."
No doubt there are calls galore between Turdblossom and the Clinton campaign. You want tips to suppress the votes, Karl is the go-to guy.
It would certainly go a long way to explain the foul stench of rethuglican dirty tricks that permeates her entire campaign.

really, does any sane person believe by using these tactics, they will be looked on in a positive light.
Every day it's a new lie, and new underhanded tactic. Here's the lie she told that I only learned about yesterday:
It's really sad to watch somebody self-destruct on the national stage. Is there nobody out there who can make her see that her tactics are back-firing and making her her look like a liar and a cheat? Compare that to the impression of Obama that he is honest and intelligent.
How much lower does she have to stoop before it's over?

This was one of the first and most powerful signals of her campaign's utter disregard for the truth, and I'd be surprised if even 10% of Hillary backers know about it.

Disenfranchise the caucus voters in Texas and whine about "every vote counts" in MI and FL.
Again, credibility, honesty. She's beyond the pale.

I've been blaming Hillary for her campaign. I'm no longer certain. If the campaing had followed the standards it used into Super Tuesday, she would have had a bright future. As it is, she looks like a sour loser. But how bright a future would the tops of her campaign staff have had? They took an obvious front-runner and lost. Penn looked like he had shit for brains. Maybe those guys are getting their vengeance on the guy who spoiled their only opportunity.

just a bunch of asshats. I never wanted to put her down, but she is dishonest and seems to have a certain amount of disdain for- oh hell- i'm without words.
by swtexas on Fri Mar 28, 2008 at 09:52:00 AM PDT
This is not lying.
From the reactions when the Tuzla vid came out, you have to think it possible that Hillary was as surprised as everyone else.
She had reworked the facts to a fantasy -- the hero-under-fire dream.
Tuzla is not the only delusion. She manufactured new fantasies for SCHIP, the health care debacle, a faked meeting with Irish women and invented statements in Belfast, child protection, and a host of other events.
The pattern is that she goes off imagining that she was the most or one of the most active participants in these activities.
Like Bush43, Hillary is a narcissist. Her dreams about herself become her subjective reality, replacing what she knew as true experience in the past.
Bush43 does it all the time, too.

Is that Hillary has, as far as I can tell, deferred to these advisers time and time again. Before Iowa and New Hampshire, and even up until Super Tuesday, I felt like there were flashes of the Hillary Clinton I kept hearing existed--the warm, empathic, progressive woman who could be not only a decent president but a good one. Every time, though, those flashes were tamped down and then they stopped coming at all. the last one was a the end of debate #7,867 where she said she was honored to share the stage with Obama. Then--wham---kapow--came the below the belt blows, so we are left with a choice: was Hillary just so unprepared for anything after Super Tuesday that she feels trapped in a corner and is just lashing out or does she defer to the judgments of petty, small-minded men who only know how to fight ugly?
Either choice speaks badly of Hillary, and either way, the buck stops with her. This is her campaign. I just wish I could stop the ride and get off because it's making me sick.

what she is doing ???
Blithering on after the Tuzla tapes came out ???
That was not exactly rational behavior.
by vets74 on Fri Mar 28, 2008 at 11:59:11 AM PDT
She can go MUCH MUCH lower. She starts suing everybody soon enough just to get what she wants.
Tht's her main skill, PR spin and suing people.
Heads up.

Are you insinuating that she has ties to the cult of Scientology? You may be confusing her with Cong. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen down in South Florida. Oh, no, wait, I may get sued for this Comment!

Senator, will you repudiate these efforts to disenfranchise Texas state convention delegates, and demand that these challenges by your supporters cease? And if not, why not?"
by Randall Sherman on Fri Mar 28, 2008 at 09:46:56 AM PDT
The MSM is obsessed with keeping this Jeremiah Wright controversy going. Who cares about hypocrisy and voter disenfranchisement when we have important things like pastors to talk about.

that sounds like the type direct question Keith Olbermann is best at!! it just rings with his tone... that would be great if he could get an interview with her..

by deutschluz on Fri Mar 28, 2008 at 10:03:16 AM PDT
Olberman has stated several times that he has asked Hillary to come on her show. She has refused every request. She's afraid of Olberman. And yet she goes on Faux Noise to tell her story. It's really sad.
