Fired up...Pissed off, Ready to go.
Quit whining Hillary Fans. Its not our fault you candidate is non competitive, It is not our fault that she can not pick up independent voters. It is not our fault that she has to land the campaign $5 Million dollaqrs/ It is not our fault that she is not as organized.

I think we have successfully smashed the inevitability Idol. We are ready Today to take on the front runner statuse.

We are ready today for the Clintons to play the role of underdog.


See you in Ohio. Because you are nowhere for the rest of the month.

8. No, the truth is ...
the typical Dem strongholds (CA, NY, NJ, etc) will still go Dem, and Obama will be in play in southern states with large African-American populations (GA, SC, MS, AL, LA, etc). That breaks up the "solid south" that has handed the GOP wins in 1968, 1972, 1980, 1984, 1988, 2000, and 2004.

If the GOP can't sweep the south, there's NO WAY they can win. Hillary can't compete there. Obama can.

7. We will Take SC and Virginia and cruise to victory in Noemeber
Hillary on the othe hand will win the same states that Gore and Kerry won and and will either barely lose or barely win.

27. No way will Hillary win the GE

6. Now 5 recommends, 2 responses.
This is how it works for both sides:
1. Post something with an inflammatory title.
2. Fill it with vitriol against the other candidate and their supporters.
3. Wait for like-minded people to recommend it.
4. Sit back and watch the same fight, which nobody wins.
Sorry, this is getting very boring.

18. Of course it does. We will come together. Primaries are rough.
I just don't want to throw away some of the good people on this board because primary emotions run high.

16. I'm sure that Mrs Clinton's supporters are cringing in the face of your superior
opinion right now, and just giving up.

21. Oh man. I love to get down and dirty on policy stuff, record stuff but don't gloat.
There are real people on the other end of that gloating.

Let's be good sports and remember its not over till it's over. Also we could be looking at a Clinton/Obama Obama/Clinton ticket.

Half of the Dem party DOES want Clinton. We gotta respect that, especially with many of our friends here.

A lot of them make me mad and get my blood boiling but lets stay on point w/ the rhetoric and the facts.

Perky, you are still one of my favorite posters.
