Tom Joyner this AM: "Trickery" in NC didn't matter since Obama won

[journalist3072]

Throughout this campaign, Tom Joyner has had a hotline people could call in to on election day if they want to report problems with voting.

And he's been working with a man named Ken Smuckler to collect all the information they receive.

So this morning, Tom said "There wassome trickery in North Carolina but it didn't matter much; Obama won pretty big."

I heard that and was like, what? So Tom Joyner (a hardcore, Obama can do no wrong supporter) only cares about election malfeasance if it hurts Obama? If Obama wins, the malfeasance is OK?

His comments this morning (during the 6:00 hour of his show) is just more proof that Tom Joyner is a partisan Obama hack and not someone to be taken seriously on the issue od election malfeasance.

And Tom has already testified before a Congressional committee, or is scheduled to testify, on the election day "trickery" (as he calls it) calls that have come in on his 800 number.

Some time ago, he mentioned he would be going befor Congress about this.

What a joke.

1. I loveeeeee Tom Joyner! Oh well..lmao

[cali]

2. What nonsense. Trying to make it look like Obama didn't legitimately win in NC

is reprehensible. And you provide NO links for your spurious claims.
Face it, Clinton's run is over. She lost. Move on.

8. That's the same crap they accused Sen. Obama's supporters of,

repeatedly, if we so much as breathed about reported voting problems in NY, OH, PA and other places.

4. i do believe the insinuation was barack won big in spite of trickery

(sry sleepy dog on lap)

[democracy1st]

5. true its like if the Dems had won the presidential election by a wide margin

it would not have mattered if the repubs were cheating,but when its close you pay a heavy price

[lynnertic]

6. yep

[blogslut]

7. That "trickery" usually affects African Americans

Perhaps Mr. Joyner was glad for the massive voter turnout that overrode any disenfranchisement. Hmmm?

[Doityourself]

9. That was my feeling...

10. You are the joke bringing that bitter he said/she said crap here.

At least Tom wasn't the commander of and 'Operation Chaos' like limpballs.

11. have we forgotten the robocalls already?

that was probably the trickery he was referring to.

12. I saw no trickery when I voted yesterday in Raleigh,

I saw some overzealous Obama supporters cursing and yelling at some Hillary folks who were holding signs out by the entrance to my polling place.

But that happens everywhere and not just on one side.

13. I take it your screen name is meant ironically? n/t

14. I'm so cynical, I question the OP's motives

The quote obviously insinuates Obama won, despite tricks from the Clinton camp. This sounds like a preemptive spin in order to frame the argument so we bicker whether Obama or Clinton was suppressing the vote rather than, the people demanding to know how long before the investigation is over and we get to the bottom of all this.

- a little voice in the maelstrom

16. Anyone, especially a black person who supports Obama is not credible

That's the motive I see. Tom has spent the last few days speaking about the Robocalls that were conducted by Clinton supporters. His concern was that the trickery would attempted against Obama.

Even Greg Palast says that there will be trickery but the way to overcome it is to win big.

15. So you'd want Tom Joyner to be a partisan Hillary hack?

Let it play out. There may very well be some voting irregularities. I would hope that would concern you as a Democrat.
