1. That's why I hope Obama wins in Wisconsin, and win by more than 5%.
I want that win to shut them up, at least for a day.

4. I hope for over 10% because that might shut their fascist campaign DOWN, period.

2. That might be true, but a random sampling of the MSNBC pundits
seemed to look like they all thought it a big joke--and totally stupid on the part of the Clinton camp. I caught a little of Matthews, Tucker and of course Olbermann and they all seemed to think it was not going to work. The first few minutes I saw of MSNBC this morning featured a Hillary speech where she is copying verbatim something her husband said a few years ago--so they're saying "she does it too".

I think Obama has had enough time, by now, to establish some credibility with voters and I'm really optimistic about Wisconsin in particular.

3. Every news I saw showed her copying too
even Larry King. I ended up emailing Larry because David Krum kept talking and not letting Ron Reagan and Stephanie Miller say hardly anything. And he was hitting Obama hard. I think the right is starting to get scared they are going to lose to him.

I told Larry to cut in more when his guests do that, its not fair when one side has all the say because they know how to overtake a conversation.

5. Clintonco is making me sicker by the day.
She has a lot of nerve attacking her opponent for his words, considering her new ad where she claims to have worked the night shift. Wolfson was asked about it and admitted it was in reference to working late at night at her desk! Ugh!

6. And the Clinton folks are very short-sighted with these negative tactics
Just this morning I caught a local morning drive time guy (who is a loud-mouth conservative) using Clinton's plagiarism charge to bash Obama.

Way to go. Gosh let's turn the firepower on each other to make the right wing's job easier in the fall. This is just so self-defeating. :grr:
