29. That has been used over and over in many rallys both political and non
In that phrase and variations.

Not a Freudian slip!

3. "Ready to go" is a pretty common idiom, not a Freudian slip.
I assume you've simply run out of substantive things to say.

And by telling, I mean, when he was talking about Nev he started
parroting Obama's slogan - which makes me think he thinks Obama is doing well in Nev. Which is the most recent information I've seen on Nev.

5. There is no copyright on that slogan and contrary to popular belief, Obama's peeps
didn't create it.

9. I have never heard 'fired up and ready to go' until Obama started using it.
Nice spin though.

18. Well, I heard it from a couple of Maoists from Morgantown, WV on Nov, 17, 1978
So it's at least that old.

They also expressed their readiness to engage in "struggle".

12. I think it's because they are such numb-skulled "team players"

that original thinking isn't allowed - the "resistance is futile" crowd

15. could be
I am not seeing it though.

Yesterday I got a knock on my door from an Obama supporter. It was a young kid from San Diego that had come here to nevada to work for Obama. I let him put a sign in my yard.

I havent heard a peep from hillary in 6 months and I am signed up for all the campaigns.

Someone else here did say they were contacted by hillary though recently so I may just be missing it.

20. Bayh is beating his own drum.. Most Hoosiers back Edwards.
Bayh pressured several local politicos to support Hillary because he wanted to be VP. Looks like Bayh bet on the wrong horse!

Funny that it is a woman, former prosecutor Ann DeLaney that is leading the Edwards effort in Indiana (which is considering moving up the primary from May).

25. There have been clips of Hillary saying this just before the Iowa caucus
It's rather coincidental.

26. Next pro-Sen Clinton slogan: "Gobama!"
Next disingenuous response to the deliberate cribbing of your rivals' campaign slogans: "What?! Her second middle name is Gobama! Sen Hilary Rodham Gobama Clinton! It came from her maternal grandmother! Why do you hate grandmothers?"
