You got to admit the Clinton people are pros
They come out with their big fundraising number the same day Obama gives a major foreign policy speech on Iraq knowing her fundraising surprise will be all anyone talks about all day.

Her whole campaign team are pros. The best in the biz. I tip my hat to them. They play the media to their advantage like a violin and that skill will be invaluable in a general election campaign because most voters don't read books, newspapers, or political blogs. They get their news from the TEE-VEE.

When Obama's numbers were blowing away Hillary's it didn't matter.

And, Obama is doing just find getting his message out today.

5. Joe Biden
is not someone to be feared, I remember why I dislike him so much when I read he backed Clarence Thomas over Anita Hill today.

6. Don't Fear The Biden
All our times have come
Here but now they're gone
Seasons don't fear the Biden
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain
We can be like they are

Come on baby... Don't fear the Biden
Baby take my hand... Don't fear the Biden
We'll be able to fly... Don't fear the Biden
Baby I'm your man...

Bush is done
Here but now they're gone
Bill and Hillary
Are together in eternity...
Bill and Hillary

40,000 men and women everyday... Like Bill And Hillary
40,000 men and women everyday... Redefine happiness
Another 40,000 coming everyday...We can be like they are

Come on baby... Don't fear the Biden
Baby take my hand... Don't fear the Biden
We'll be able to fly... Don't fear the Biden
Baby I'm your man...

Love of two is one
Here but now they're gone
Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear she couldn't go on
Then the door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew then disappeared
The curtains flew then he appeared
Saying don't be afraid

Come on baby... And she had no fear
And she ran to him... Then they started to fly
They looked backward and said goodbye
She had become like they are
She had taken his hand
She had become like they are

Come on baby...don't fear the Biden

7. Don't agree.

I support Edwards, of the three media stars, but Hillary can win.

They defined Kerry as a coward and a flip-flopper. They defined Dean as an out-of-control lunatic. They defined Gore as an effeminate, compulsive liar.

Biden, Edwards, Obama, Kucinich, anyone we can throw at the Republicans, their lie machine will start to define them before their campaign even gets started. It'll come from Republican HQ and it'll be in talking points of fox news and it'll be echoed on newsmax and the wash times, and then right-wing talking heads on those stupid "both sides of the issue" programs will regurgitate the lies like the vomitous robots they are.

Hillary will be much, much harder to define. She's already been defined. The people who can't stand her won't change their minds -- except the extreme left, when Fox news tries to tell everyone how liberal she is. The people who think she's generally ok won't change their minds. Nobody will catch the Hillary fever, but her national poll numbers aren't going to change much from where they are today. Any other candidate on the roster is going to be made a lot more unpopular before election day.

9. I don't care about her campaign team.
I care about what she stands for and I am not impressed
-by her Iraq war stance
-by her healthcare plan
-by her evasive answers and platitudes during debates
So she has more money, I don't care.
:shrug:

10. But the president's sole job isn't politicking
We really need to look at the best person for the job (however defined), rather than the shrewdest politician

12. So the Dems have their own Roves, so what?
The republic is still drowning in blood and bad debt. And Hill won't help.

20. So we are to fall into a cesspool of immoral characters like the flick
"Reservoir Dogs?" :wow:



Thanks but NO THANKS! I'd rather suffer and do the right moral actions today - than to WIN but burn in hell as well as my heirs hearts and minds - for eternity. :shrug:

Wouldn't surprise me.

18. Bush's Karl Rove was also a pro, but look at the governance we got out of that bunch
If Hillary doesn't end the war, she will be dead meat no matter how her campaign team performs.

22. You got to admit it looks like Bush/Cheney will have pulled it off and walked away from it while
make billions for big biz and themselves and laugh at the Dems on their way out of DC.
