Obama seems to be gaining a lot of momentum. I liked his speech in Virginia last night when he said that he has the best chance to recapture the presidency. I like that message and kudos to his speech writers and political advisors. Pedal to the metal now and bring this idea of meaningful change home. Hilliary can also help usher in a change, but she couldn’t ever do that back at the White House.

Obama beats McCain, I think. McCain is old and a well-played Obama campaign could beat him. Hillary has too many negatives to beat McCain.

That's the thing-nobody turns out for primaries, but the kids sure are this year.

I just read a great article (I'll link later) that talks about one of the advantages Obama has is that part of his message resonates with "bleeding heart" Evangelicals-the ones who take Christ's message to help the poor to mean that the government has a role in creating a social safety net, who think that Christ's care for the sick means that we should have universal health care. Stuff like that.

No, I believe you're not calling him a radical muslim, I just think you are pulling out all of the stops to show him in the most exaggerated, worst light possible, in EVERY. FREAKING. POST. Like I said before, we get it. You don't like him. How about talking policy instead of ONLY making insipid personal attacks? Then some of us might pay more attention.Because he is not smart enough to do that. He is also not smart enough to think beond the bounds of his political party. If the person is not a Rep then in his mind they are a baby-killing commie.

He can't help it some people just never change. Go easy on him Jed(after all he is not that smart).

Since the voters have frowned on negative campaigning in this primary and the Clintons excel at getting down in the mud, I wonder if this is where Billary gets on with the negative campaigning or if they try and play nice and truly stay on the issues?

If she wants a chance she better do something, here is the problem with Billary...she has tried 3 main tactics that I have seen and it has backfired:

1: Negative campaigning-people are sick of this
2: Running on being a Clinton and her "record"-people are sick of Bush/Clinton/Bush/Clinton
3: She put very little into these smaller states and focused on Texas and Ohio-The problem is that everyone wants to vote for a winner and Obama has now won 10 straight primaries, Obama has a uplifting message, she is now way in the hole and states like Texas where she once held a 10pt lead is now dead even and she is counting on these states like she did California earlier when she had some momentum

I for one dread the day that she even gets the Dem nomination so I am happy with whats going on even though I am like you picasso in that I dont know how Obama will "change" alot of what he has said will be different? The guy has serious "moxy" though :D

Hey guys--

First, I am not a Hillary supporter, but I really don't hate her like it appears everyone in this board does... So I have a question.

Why do you hate Hillary? Some in depth explanations would be great. If your reason is simply because we have had Clinton's in the White House or because she is a woman or something else equally retarded, you need not respond. Preferrably someone with a brain will enlighten me in a nonbiased manner. Tuba, you can leave the conservative 'she's a communist' message out of it. I understand your views, the question isn't directed towards you.

I am extremely against Hillary but I will answer this as unbiased as possible

1: As you mentioned, I am ready for something new
2: I dont think she offers anything new
3: I think she is an elitist
4: I think she is a bitter old lady
5: I think she is creepy :D
6: I am not against having a female president but I think she is the wrong female to be president because I dont feel like she has any cred outside of her last name
7: I am tired of having rich white folks as the president( I am white) it would be nice to see someone refreshing and galvanizing
8: If there is anyone that would be able to bring the Rep and Dems together and the country together, she is Not that person!
9: Her running points are out of convenience(war, economy, etc..) when she voted for many Of GW's plans including the war( I voted for GW so I am not a GW hater like some)

I honestly don't think she has any business running for POTUS. She accomplished what exactly as First Lady? ****ing up Universal Health Care and writing a book about dogs. That's what. Oh, and letting her husband get a smoker and then not kicking his *** to the curb because she knew it would kill any chance she had at a political career down the road.

She's now the Jr. Senator from NY (does she live in NY? I thought she was from the Arkansas and then lived at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave?). She's done what in the Senate? Lapdogging W's war efforts until it got bad and then turning on him? At least McCain still supports him and Obama never did. Hillary did what was going to make her look the best.

She's gravy training off her husband's name and the soft spot people have in their brain for "how good we had it before W came and ruined everything." She headed into this primary season with an enormous sense of entitlement and some deep pockets.

I'm not saying Obama is any more qualified than she is, because I don't think that's the case, but to me Hillary and all her baggage don't make her a very likable person.

There's that.

And Hillary will also drive voters into the polls to vote against her. People who dislike Obama don't seem to dislike him enough to drive to the polls specifically to vote against him.

Last polling data I saw has him in a virtual dead heat vs. McCain (a 2% lead.) The same poll had McCain handily defeating Clinton. I'd likely vote McCain over Clinton.

I'm voting for Obama, because it would be nice to have an articulate spokesman for the American people. I don't hate Hillary, I just think we need to leave the divisiveness of the first Clinton presidency behind us. Unfortunately, Hillary carries much of Bill's baggage even though much of it is undeserved on her part. Bill was a sleasy individual, but much of what was accomplished during his administration (with a Republican Congress) was amazing. I'm a deficit hawk and I think GWB has sold my kids' future down the river. One of the happiest moments of the recent past was when the deficit counter stopped at the end of Bill's presidency. Unfortunately it started with a vengeance during Bush II.

Exactly, I just read this quote by Hillary and it really bothered me "But only one of us is ready on Day One to be commander in chief, ready to manage our economy and ready to defeat the Republicans."

I realize she is probably referring more to the presidetial race but knowing how divisive she already appears to most, does this not seem like an odd choice of words to anyone else??

I find it ironic that you suggest that the fact that anyone could be sick of a potential dynastic situation as a valid point for not voting for someone isn't actually a valid reason. How often in the past have unfit persons been elected to public office because of name recognition. You can't seriously tell me that Strom Thurmond was actually doing anything worthwhile when he was STILL in Congress in his 90s. We're referring to this misfit operation known as the modern American Government, not what rich and famous hack job will get some bank to convince you to buy a piece of **** Ford/Chevy/Lexus/Mercedes/BMW/Volvo.

If by being "First Lady" she's saying that makes her qualified to hold the highest office in the country, that's akin to Bill Gates' wife taking over Microsoft, because hey, she's Bill Gates' wife. Forget the fact that she probably doesn't know jack about running a multinational corporation. Eleanor Roosevelt was more qualified to run for President than Hillary Clinton is. She cheated the system to get her Senatorial position, which she only got as a platform for this abortion of a Presidential run that she is currently undertaking.

I also find it ironic that no other candidate has to pimp out their husband and only child to try and connect with portions of the American public who for the most part couldn't stand Hillary via public perception of her dating back to the early 90s, and definitely during "Sexgate".

I guess you'll characterize my response as retarded but here it goes.

1. I do have a problem with the fact that, on her own, she would be a complete unknown. There is something powerful about someone who can rise up out of nowhere to make a name for himself/herself. Only an exceptional person can do that. Clearly, dubya showed just about anyone with political connections can go a long ways.

Bill Clinton rose to power for exactly the opposite reason. He came from relatively nowhere (as a fairly unknown governor of a small state). He also had the dynamic personality that Hillary just does not have.

I recognize that some of that criticism might be unfair to Hillary. However, this is the POTUS and it's about our country, not what is fair to one candidate or another. And, simply put, for whatever negative Hillary has to deal with for being the President's wife, she has received one thousand times the benefit.

2. Hillary has some really dumb ideas. Her stupid mortgage freeze idea is absurd and dangerous. Never before in our country has the government attempted to invalidate legal contracts. She clearly has never heard of the term "unintended consequences" as her plan will completely freeze our mortgage markets.

3. She does seem to have a sense of entitlement.

4. She isn't electable.

No, it's an example of people trying to make things worse around here instead of better. Instead of reporting stuff via PM that we have no way of knowing about (mods can't read spek comments -- and even if we could we'd have to have our attention drawn to an individual comment), people feel it's more appropriate to post it in an open forum, and then others feel empowered/compelled to use it as a way to bash mods. That's all.

No, it's an example of people trying to make things worse around here instead of better. Instead of reporting stuff via PM that we have no way of knowing about (mods can't read spek comments -- and even if we could we'd have to have our attention drawn to an individual comment), people feel it's more appropriate to post it in an open forum, and then others feel empowered/compelled to use it as a way to bash mods. That's all.


Why did you think I was bashing the mods? I was just asking a question, and jkm answered it for me.

You know Harry, I've written and rewritten a response to this three or four times because I don't want it to come across as angry. I'm trying to couch this in a neutral and inoffensive language as I can.

Your post was an implied criticism of an issue of unfairness. However, fairness is a standard that you don't seem willing to apply to anyone who happens to be a moderator. As pointed out, we can't read reputation comments. We don't review reputation comments. A poster who is notorious for trying to rile people up and insulting people he doesn't agree with got a negative comment and instead of reporting it to a moderator or an admin, chose to share it with the board.

Before anyone had a chance to do a thing about it, you immediately jumped up and started talking about how moderators do their job. I don't assume you're stupid, please do us the same courtesy-the intent behind your comment is fairly easy to divine based on your choice of words.

To coin a phrase "I would expect better of you."

A poster who is notorious for trying to rile people up and insulting people he doesn't agree with...If those on the left don't like to be called socialists, leftists, progressives, statists or communists, just what is it they want to be called? (By contrast, those on the right don't usually mind being called capitalists, conservatives, right-wingers, constructionists, etc.)

When words such as nut-job or whack-job are added, things change, of course. However, the person you are referring to doesn't do that kind of stuff. So, how is the insult occurring?

Personally, I don't mind being called a progressive or a liberal, though.I don't see how "fascists" applies any more to conservatives than it does liberals. That's about heavy handedness in govt., and any type of govt can do that. "Reactionaries" might be appropriate for conservatives. "Robber Barons" suggests crime. We wouldn't own that name as conservatives, either.

2/21/2008, 07:52 PM
Well, there you go.I know you don't think "Socialist" applies to liberals, because what liberals in America advocate is not(yet) complete control by the state. But, what you do advocate is continually growing govt. control and regulation of many things in the economy, which means you guys want to move a lot closer to socialism, and away from capitalism and the free market system.

Behavior of American liberals can understandably be thought of as socialistic, if not full-blown socialist. Commie might be a stretch, but socialist is not so much, since it describes your orientation towards government control of the economy. So, you should be proud of the term socialist, and not consider it as an insult.

Fascist doesn't apply to real conservatives, just very nearly the folks who've been running the Republican party recently. I don't know if I'd go so far as to straight up call them fascists, but they're not very far off.

And fascism isn't about "heavy-handedness" in government. It is a fairly heavy-handed style, but, it's a very specific style of authoritarianism. Both Stalinist communism and fascism are heavy-handed and authoritarian, but they are very, very different on almost everything else.

From what I can ascertain the half delegates seem to be related to percentages. A simplistic way would be 10 delegates up and the voting between two candidates is 35% to 65% so one candidate would get 3.5 delegates and the other 6.5.
