Barack Obama - It's Time to Show Hillary Clinton "The Chicago Way"
Remember Malone to Eliot Ness in the Untouchables. After this week and with what Hillary, Penn and Wolfson have planned in the coming weeks. You said you're from Chicago. Time for the Chicago Way!

1. He may finally live up to the devious reputation HRC supporters give him.
You know, the shady Chicago politician who has all the know-how and connections.

2. Obama lacks the capacity for this sort of thing
I'd love to see him go ultra-negative now; it will alienate the "hope and change" crowd, and he will get slaughtered by the much more-experienced Clinton campaign.

5. Yeah the bumbling, fumbling Clinton campaign team who
finally got lucky by going Rove! Tonight didn't make them invincible. I expect if he hits back they will screw up again.

10. Luck had nothing to do with landing a solid punch on Obama's glass jaw
The Obama campaign was faced with two hard-hitting events; the 3am ad and the NAFTA memo, and they stumbled badly on both.

The most telling statistic of the night was on CNN a few moments ago; of the voters who only made up their mind in the last 3 days, they broke for Clinton around 60-40. Momentum is clearly going her way.

4. Oops -unitentional irony
"The Chicago "way" -or more accurately, the Cook County way - is major league corrupt.

And as I recall, there's a trial going on....

6. Arkansas Politics is equally corrupt
Like Hillary and Bill's past is so lily-white. They want to get in the sewer by smearing Obama with Rezko (and hey he was stupid getting in the deal), but the Clinton's are no innocents. Marc and Denise Rich, Norman Hsu and others.

8. There are two places that challenge our primacy for corruption in Chicago.
Edited on Wed Mar-05-08 02:22 AM by tritsofme
Louisiana and New Jersey.

Arkansas is flag football.

Going after the dead vote?

7. I remember a fairy tale starring Kevin Costner, Sean Connery, Robert DeNiro and Andy Garcia...
Edited on Wed Mar-05-08 02:20 AM by Aviation Pro
...but I also remember the real corruption of Chicago and the imagery of the slaughterhouse in Upton Sinclar's "The Jungle."

13. the Clinton way is scandal, payola affairs rape, suicide, imprisonment
Edited on Wed Mar-05-08 02:52 AM by WillYourVoteBCounted
and we're sick of that.


I left off wars. Hillary did some opinion research and voted for a war we didn't need.

That is her worst evil act.

22. It's 3 AM and your 12 year old daughter is being raped...
You're able to get that bastard to trial, but then Hillary Clinton accuses your daughter of wanting it. Is this the kind of integrity you want in the White House?
