Hillary: The Al Gore of 2008
Excerpt:
In 2000, the fact that the Democratic candidate
won the popular vote but lost the election caused
great anger and bitterness among some Democrats.
Those feelings lasted quite a while. But in 2008,
the prospect that a Democratic candidate might
win the popular vote but lose the nomination does not
seem as troubling. Party leaders and their allies
in the press are not only not angry and bitter, they don't
even seem unhappy that the primary season might
produce a nominee who lost the popular vote.
Why the change?

I see where you have been trying to convince your
readers who are
avid Hillary fans to vote for the Democratic
nominee in November.
Yes, and I'd like to apologize for such boorish
behavior.
You have done your fair share to help create
this nightmare
by trashing Obama on Bartcop.

Belinda, dozens of people agree with you.
Some Obama fans people see hatred and bigotry in every word I

Party may

Can Obama
Win Without Her?
Numbers look bad for BO in OH, FL and PA
Clinton rates better against McCain in 3 crucial states
Excerpt:
Obama may well be "within reach" of the nomination,
but his battle to win bellwether
Ohio currently exceeds his grasp.
His rosy self-assessment came this week after
he moved within 100 delegates of clinching
his party's nod. But a new Quinnipiac Poll contained
a host of bad numbers for Obama in Ohio
and two other battleground states, Florida and
Pennsylvania.
Obama not only trails McCain
overall in Ohio, but he lags among several groups crucial to victory
in the Buckeye State, such as independents and
voters from the southeastern part of the state.
"It is clear that Obama still has some work to
do in Ohio," said Peter Brown, of Quinnipiac.
"The assumption was that this year was going
to be a Democratic cakewalk. The data indicate
in battleground states it may not be true."
Maybe Obama should put his country before
his ego.
I'd sure hate to do four more years of
right-wing insanity.

Subject: racism
Bart, you wrote:
> "Racism is like evil - everyone has some,
> Some people let it define them, (Bush,
Cheney, Reagan, Inhofe, Lott, etc) and some
> people are knee-jerk, semi-racists
who, after some thought, often do the right thing."
This is you at your most insightful.
I think Hillary has lost.
So this election will be a vote on how racist
America actually is,
instead of how much the press hates the Clintons.
I am not optimistic.
The Brew
Yes, that is depressing.
If we lose this election over our newly-discovered national race
problem,
civil rights could face a setback for years or decades and nobody
wants that.
...but an Obama/Clinton ticket might be impossible to beat.

Economic fears darken U.S. mood
Excerpt:
Growing anxiety about their economic prospects
and deep unhappiness with Der Fuhrer
plunged Americans into a dark mood this month,
according to a new poll.
Concerns about the direction of the country and
personal finances rose sharply,
and dissatisfaction with Der Chimp and his economic
and foreign policy all climbed.
Bush's approval rating fell 4 percentage points
to 23 percent, a record low.
Hmmm, might be time to take the leap and get one of these...

South's Finest Chocolate
Obama's
Secret War Tax
by Greg Palast
Excerpt:
In a hotel room in Brussels, the chief executives
of the world's top oil companies unrolled
a huge map of the Middle East, drew a fat, red
line around Iraq and signed their names to it.
The map, the red line, the secret signatures.
It explains this war.
It explains this week's rocketing of the price
of oil to $134 a barrel.
It happened on July 31, 1928, but the bill came due now.
In 1928, oil company chieftains were faced with
a crisis: falling prices due to rising supplies of oil;
the same crisis faced by their successors during
the Clinton years, when oil traded at $22 a barrel.
The solution then, as now: stop the flow of oil,
squeeze the market, raise the price.
The method: put a red line around Iraq and declare
that virtually all the oil under its sands
would remain there, untapped. Their plan: choke
supply, raise prices rise, boost profits.
That was the program for 1928. For 2003. For
2008.
I wish to hell the Democrats would call their
plan what it is: A war profiteering tax.
War is profitable business - if you're an oil
man. But somehow, the public pays the price,
at the pump and at the funerals, and the oil
companies reap the benefits.

Subject: Molly Ivins
As I read and listen to the Alter's and the Olbermann's
and the Rhodes, etc of this election season,
I really, really, REALLY miss Molly Ivins.
I wonder what she would have to say about all this crap
that's been bandied about the last few months?
I don't know who's corner she would have been
in (I suspect Hillary's) but even if she had been in
Obama's corner. I think she would be horrified
that Hillary and her supporters had been branded racists.
We sorely miss her sanity and wit. She must be
rolling in her grave right now.

problems, we will get rewarded in the
next election, not punished. If we give into
this, we don't deserve to be here."

30-second video
Subject: my Obama problem
(Lately) I have not liked anything I have
seen from the Obama campaign.
The disrespect he shows for those that
paved the way for him disgusts me.
Accusing the Clintons of racism disgusts
me. Watching Obama brush off
his shoulder after a debate with Hillary
(which she commanded) disgusted me.
How can I vote for this?
Ben the Saints fan
Ben, it's easy, you just vote "Democrat" and go home.
You will have done your job and saved your country.
But
...that brush off the shoulder move doesn't sit with me very well either.
When that first came up, I thought anti-Obamas were stretching
a point,
but I've seen him do it a time or two since then. If it
means nothing more
than "brushing off" some criticism, I'd be OK with that.
But
...there was also something about scraping the bottom of his shoe?
IF
he's sending secret signals to blacks, signals that say
"The Clintons are
lower than dog shit," that's
a problem that could get super-hot, super-fast.
IF
that's what's going on, he needs to restrain that bahavior.

In fact they would look down on my job as beneath
