Is Obama snubbing Hillary his "Dean scream" moment?
Do you think this has the potential to become for Obama what "the scream" was for Dean? I've been tracking the coverage in the MSM, and it looks like it is snowballing. I just wonder if it can do serious damage.

Personally, I doubt it'll have much impact outside of - perhaps - woman voters who are turned off by it.

1. Nah. He fucked up, but it's not going to have the impact of "the Scream".

Nope.
He just proved that he is rude. And btw, there was no Dean scream.

3. Nahhh
It's not a "Dean Scream" moment.

It's just the actions of a green campaigner who isn't ready for high office.

4. I haven't seen much, and The Scream was EVERYWHERE the
next day...the problem for BO is that this is indicative of his thin skin, and his basically bitter nature. One example doesn't matter, but if it happens again, the media will report on it and see a pattern.

5. Hardly
Dean had far more party members aligned against him than Hillary.

9. If Hillary has her way it will.
They'll squeeze every drop from Jesse's I mean Obama's so called snub. They do have the advantage in manipulation, so there is no way to tell.

12. Snub
Dean was hardly in the position of strength that Obama is. Besides, this is so obviously just the media creating something out of nothing, it will probably help him, if anything.

13. No, but his behavior did take away some of the luster of the
Kennedy endorsement.

23. Obama's slight was on video and getting play. The link you post will not get the same coverage.
Ithink it shows all of us how desparate the media is to jump on any personal story in this campaign instead of focusing on the issues.

19. I haven't seen any coverage of it other than the 3,000 DU threads.

20. The fact that this has 6 recommendations is a very sad state of affairs for
the six Hillary supporters who are keeping this going.

22. It has indeed hit the MSM.
I read it on NY Times website.

I don't believe it will be his scream moment but it does show a pattern of disrespect.....now, the question is this: is it disrespect to Hillary alone or should it be generalized to women?

24. Why would it be generalized to include all women?
I would really like to know the answer to that.

25. Sorry Clintonistas
The cable networks stopped talking about it hours ago. No traction to be gained because there is no there, there.

27. Probably, because neither one actually happened.
But don't put it beneath typical DLC thuggery for them to try and dean-scream Obama. It's how they operate.

28. No
Maybe Hillary was really snubbing Obama. She went right for Kennedy. Didn't even look at Obama.

Just another way to look at it.

29. How does snubbing your rival equal political suicide?
I still can't wrap my mind around this, they are running against one another to become the next President of the United States not some popularity pageant.
