Et Tu Terry?

I'll probably kick myself for wasting my daily diary this way; but this is simply too fun not to share:  (if not for the pictures, for the deeply unhinged comments of the hillary supporter in the comment section)

Mark Penn's sudden resignation from her campaign,  It appears that another high profile clinton supporter may be jumping ship    or at least it looked that way this weekend:

Now for those of you who DON'T have the Complete set of Clintonista Trading Cards,  the guy grinning broadly in  all those photos is....Former DNC head  and current Clinton Capaign chairman Terry McAuliffe.

Now all of this would be worth no more than a wry chuckle if not for the comment that accompanies the link article....now THAT's Funny:

(now at the outset, in fairness, I want to acknowledge Niven's Law:  "there is no cause so good or right that it doesn't have at least a few nitwits attached to it".  but the tone and tenor of the comment is so similar to a random sample of the "content" on places like Hillaryis44  that I think its fair to use)

So what was the calm, objective reaction to the Hillary supporter who found this story first?:

Terry's the guy who cost us 2000!
Terry's the guy who cost us 2000!
ditch him Hilary!
Dump him!
Since the Obamas are trying to get Geraldine Ferraro fired from her job, maybe Hilary should just hire her to run the campaign from here on out. She's smart!
. Watch Geraldine Ferraro expose Randi Rhodes for the pea-brained person she really is:

Why wouldn’t the other media outlets run this? Well, Fox knows there’s very little risk of Hilary winning anyway, so why not? But the other mainstream media outlets do not want to get caught doing anything to help THE ONE CANDIDATE WHO CAN STILL BEAT JOHN MCCAIN—AND THAT’S HILARY. Note who’s posting it—Tennessee Guerilla Women. News Flash—Hilary TOOK the mid-South, and you need that to win in the fall campaign. Barack’s fake wins in Iowa and elsewhere (republicans cross over, bosses intimidate caucus employees, stuffed ballot boxes in Minnesota), EVEN WHILE OBAMA REFUSES TO STEP IN AND SAY THE DEMS WILL REVOTE MICHIGAN AND FLORIDA!
Now, watch the Obama campaign trolls call me racist for saying so.
Unbelievable!

Okay hon, (this is the Baltimore son so Hon is a gender-nonspecific appellation)  you are at an 11,  we need you at about a 2  okay? thanks.

So if like me , you've been wondering why Hillary is losing ; it not because she runs a poor campaign, it's apparently because:

-The ENTIRE mainstream media (except Fox news) is in on a plot to help McCain win by discrediting Hillary

_Obama Personally has control over the Michigan and Florida revote, and but for his intransigence  they'd get a redo

-The Mainstream media cabal is suppressing losingest vice presidential candidate ever Geraldine Ferraro's blog response to niche market radio host Randi Rhodes, s story they'd be ALL over otherwise...

-All of Obama's wins are FAKE,  she has proof.

_and the Evil media suppressing the fact that Hillary WON the "mid South"  South (Apparently Mississippi, Texas, , South Carolina, Alabama and Georgia  are too far south to be "mid south"  and   no Virginia  MD and Dc are too far north...which leaves, well Arkansas and GA I suppose...convenient that)

Like I said earlier, every campaign has its unhinged supporters,   it's just seeming lately that Hillary has...well, MORE of them than the average campaign, ...

•  okay I'm bad I admit

  furthering this sort of Silly Season, Reporting....but I simply couldn't resist

•  I do not want him anywhere near Obama

  The rats maybe fleeing, but he is one I do not trust.

•  Funny!

  Poor thing, how could he have avoided taking the pics?? Maybe he could have smiled a little less broadly.  Maybe he could have held his nose??? It's just a hillarious situation to find him in. Catch 22. Do I refuse to take a picture with them unless they put down their OBama signs?  Do I grin and bear and risk them getting out all over the internet?  Well guess we know what his choice was!

•  what is wrong with these people?

  by calalaila2008 on Mon Apr 07, 2008 at 01:46:52 PM PDT

•  "The Mid-South"

  Is a common reference for two things:

  1. "The South Central United States". Of those states, Hillary won New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Tennessee. Obama won Texas, Mississippi, and Louisiana. Not exactly a resounding victory for Hillary.

  2. The Memphis Metropolitan Area, which Obama won handily.

  •  The "Mid-South"

    doesn't extend to OK and NM.

    •  Or TX. n/t

      by bythesea on Mon Apr 07, 2008 at 02:33:32 PM PDT

  •  New Mexico is NOT "Southern" in any sense.

    Harumph! Sorry, but we get angry about these kinds of things.

•  Stuffing boxes

    in Minnesota? Wow...this is absurd bordering on absolute paranoia. I guess the CIA really shot JFK too.

  •  Yeah I was wondering about that too

    ...and I posted a comment there in response asking for a cite of it. It hasn't showed up there yet though. Probably won't get a response either, as it's very likely a lie pulled out of that poster's ass, in emulation of her favorite candidate.

    Anyone heard anything about such a thing anywhere else? I tried a Google search and found nothing but that post, and references to it here.

  •  Actually, I remember hearing about a...

    little funny business with the New York primary--the election officials called it "vote fraud" that there were a number of precincts that had "0" votes for Obama.  Wonder what became of that story?

•  You mean to say that Dump Terry McAuliffe

  posts on Hillaryis44? No way. Oh, they just want to dump Terry McAuliffe for disloyalty. A bit touchy over at Hillaryland, I'd say. Have no fear, Terry will never leave the Clintons, he just likes to hang out with the livelier Obama crowd from time to time and can't resist hamming for a camera.

•  Terry has never had a problem lying

  to pretty much anyone who will listen. It's all a game to him from past interactions.

•  I'm amused

  the person came from the Tennessee Guerrilla Women site.  It's gone from the blogger mostly just re-posting Maureen Dowd columns in their entirety to a pro-Hillary, Obama is the patriarchy, nutty screed-fest.

•  Terry McAuliffe is dirt..

  ..the Obama campaign can best do without.  Democrats may have developed collective amnesia over Global Crossing, but I wouldn't count on the far right smear machine forgetting it.

  •  What's up with these pics?

    I see he is wearing an HRC button in them.  Is he just being a "good sport" to Obama supporters asking him to pose with them and their sign for a photo, or is there more to the story.

    by bythesea on Mon Apr 07, 2008 at 02:29:49 PM PDT

    •  clueless here other than...

      ..perhaps yet another sign that the Clinton campaign is  falling apart and Terry McAwful is looking for a new place to roost?

      Whatever it is, I hope the Obama campaign turns up its nose to any help this guy offers.
