Here's a Way We Can All Help Obama

I think there's a lot of partisans here who are unhappy with the Clintons. Although it's hard to forgot the betrayals of the Clintons when it comes to NAFTA, the War on Iraq, her triangulation, and her failed health care initiative, that is the tip of the iceberg.

 Look at the way she is running her campaign and viciously attacking other Democrats. We know people in her campaign such as Shaheen and  Kerrey made dirty comments. So did that country hick, her husband Bill Clinton. I am not sure if Jesse Jackson won Wisconsin too. Who woulda thunk it Ernie ? (Sacrasm ends here)
 
 Here's a way we can all help with Obama because we are tired of the Clintons. It doesn't take any money and you don't have to move more than five feet.
Let's a pick a day  this week before Tuesday and call the offices of Hillary Clinton throughout Ohio and Texas and tell her that we are Democrats who are tired of her campaign tactics and shrill tactics and that's time for her to drop out of this campaign and go back to New York.
We could also spam this to other internet sites who are interested and do this on one day. Who's on board?

•  Tip Jar? Recc. if you are interested please.

  Not sure how that goes. Is  that all I need to write?

•  I was thinking along the same lines.

  Let's pick a day and diary about it each day.  I think she needs to hear from us.

  For some of us it's personal.  We just don't like her but for others it's that she's hurting our chances of getting a Democrat in the White House.  C'mon!!

•  those tactics seem to be counter-productive

  to me.  I think we as americans can do our part to support our candidate without infringing on the Clinton campaign in anyway.  Votes will tell her that we don't approve of her tactics.

•  I think phonebanking via the Obama site

  would be a better use of peoples' time and energy.

•  Why would you want to do this?

  Just let the process play out.  Support Obama without attacking Clinton.  It's getting so old and as I have mentioned before it is leaving a bad taste in the mouth of those of us who might have to switch over and support Obama in the GE.  I would like to go into that type of scenerio with a good and healthy enthusiasm but as the days go on I feel more and more like "blech, no thanks"  And I am someone who has NEVER voted outside of the democratic party in my whole life.

•  This could garner media attention

  Make a big deal if people see that people are outraged with her campaign.

•  It's Mark Penn

  Sean Penn is a good director, actor and he's now dating a supermodel.  No jealous remarks please.

•  Please don't use the word shrill...

  I am an Obama Mama, but I have to say that the word "shrill" is only used for women. It is not a good word especially with all the "sexist" charges being thrown at the Obama supporters.
  I also think that if we look to the example of our candidate, then staying above it is better than wallowing in it.

  •  I disagree. Ron Paul is shrill.

    At least, I always think he's shrill during debates.

•  just call and ask her to stop the mudslinging

  and if we see Obama unfairly slinging mud we should call his HQ and do the same.

  let her decide on her own when to drop out.

•  Let's channel the negativity into motivation!

  Rather than wasting our time calling the Clinton campaign, let's focus on GOTV and making sure we take Ohio, Texas, Rhode Island, and Vermont for change this March 4th!  Every time I get frustrated at nasty campaign tactics, I donate to Obama or start phonebanking.  It's the best way to take a negative action and turn it into positive inspiration.  LET'S GO CHANGE!

•  Saint Obama is no Angel

  Politics of Hope, Change and OptimismTM
  A candidate who has been allegedly running on the Politics of Hope, Change and OptimismTM, but has long been running a deeply negative - and often ugly - campaign against not just Sen. Clinton, but also Bill Clinton. If there's one thing you should have figured out about Sen. Obama by now, it is that you can take it to the bank that if he accuses the Clinton campaign of doing something, it is because he himself is doing much worse of the exact same thing. This is a classic Rovian and Republican tactic that Sen. Obama has been deploying repeatedly in this Democratic primary campaign. To participate in this ugliness, he luckily has some helpful surrogates in Congress and elsewhere - like the egregiously dishonest Robert Reich - who step in whenever possible to peddle horse manure on behalf of Sen. Obama - and then whine like cowards about how Bill Clinton should stop hurting their candidate with his criticisms, for the sake of Party UnityTM (I guess I was born yesterday). As it turns out, it wasn't Bill Clinton who started this fight. It was squarely Sen. Obama and his campaign who did - they have in fact been gunning for Bill Clinton for a long time, as I show in the remainder of this post - often under the radar, in order to hide their brand of ugly attack politics from the public. So, here's a Politics of Politeness and CourtesyTM-driven message to all the Establishment surrogates of Sen. Obama who are shedding crocodile tears about Party UnityTM - either you publicly call Sen. Obama to the mat on the fact that he is the original source of the ugly politics and division, or else just shove it (pardon my French, but I'm just being polite, Obama-style).

  Obama has never ran against an opponent except Allen Keys. Obama has won every election because of scandals or on technicalities, (his opponent"s being disqualified, leaving him the only choice on the ballot)..

  Or Obama"s opponent"s confidently psychiatric medical records being released to the public..

  Or like Blair Hull who was falsely charged (by rumor spread by the Obama team) that he threaten to kill his wife during an argument, after he was arrested for battery years earlier, although charges were never filed. Nevertheless, the damage to Hull"s campaign was done..

  And then there was Jack Ryan who crashed and burned and was forced to drop out because of a major sex scandal that surfaced after he won the primary election.

  Not once or twice, but every one of the 5 elections Obama has won stinks. Obama is part of the corrupt Chicago Daly political machine. Obama sure does not believe in democracy, like counting the votes and
  he will do anything to win.

•  Ask her office how she voted on FISA

  I've done that a couple of times. They pretend not to know the answer. When one of them admitted that she missed the vote I asked him if she still got paid for working that day. He said he wasn't sure.
  BTW, I live in New York.
