I personally dislike robo calls will people actually listen to this.

Well I'm not big on robocalls either, but I do like the way his campaign handles these things - they usually don't just spend time with Obama answering Clinton over and over for he said she said. They usually someone or even a few someones who are somehow associated with whatever smear Clinton is trying to straighten people out on it.

People screamed bloody murder at Kerry for not fighting back. Obama does. And his team does it very intelligently.

That robot is not a bitter e-litist, as far as I know.

Listening carefully to Obama, and particularly reading the blogs, one comes up repeatedly against the elitist attitude that those who support Hillary are stupid and unable to recognize manipulation. It is not only false. It is arrogant and unattractive.

Yeah, we all know how credible you are, Otto.

I hope this Brenner guy is popular.

That call sounded HORRIBLE.

And, I won't presume to know what PA people are thinking, but I'd hazard a guess they are SICK of this right now, and really don't want to hear a robocall about it.

SUSA: Clinton Holds 16-Point Lead in Indiana

Please join C&L and the ACLU to tell your members of Congress: Don’t Look the Other Way on Torture:

What's arrogant and unattractive is the sight of a multimillionaire, corporate lawyer posturing as the friend of the working class by waving her gun around and slamming shots. Who was the community organizer on the streets of Chicago? Who served on the board of WalMart? AS Keats used to say, "that is all ye know, and all ye need to know..."

Sure I'm bitter...bitter about Clinton's millions, McCain's beer heiress trophy wife, Obama's boyish good looks and gift of gab.

Then there's the bitterness I have about the billions CEO's have accumulated and spend on crazy luxuries life Lear jets, and 400 million dollar yachts, and Bush's insane war which will cost 3-5 trillion and, yes, I'm bitter because I can just about afford my cat food diet and now I worry that Purina might be bought out by some hedge fund. But don't mourn for me, organize.

Heck, I'm bitterness incarnate. But, I decided to move on. I started a group supporting Obama for president. It's called "Bitter People for Obama." Bitter as I am, I think he would be the best president ever.

Here's some fairly good news for Obama:

From Wall Street Journal Blog: "Is Clinton's Pennsylvania Lead Really Twenty Points ?"

Other pollsters’ numbers disagree with ARG’s. Clay Richards, who runs the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute’s Pennsylvania poll, said he doesn’t expect his poll that will be published Tuesday to show much difference from the last one, which had a Clinton lead of six points. “I don’t see that much movement in Pennsylvania myself,” Mr. Richards said by phone from Harrisburg on Monday. He declined to comment specifically on his rival’s contradictory numbers.

What's arrogant and unattractive is the sight of a multimillionaire, corporate lawyer posturing as the friend of the working class by waving her gun around and slamming shots. Word.

When is she going to take off the George Bush mask?

And Clinton supporter extraordinaire, Ed Rendell, just said:

Clinton-backing Pennsylvania governor downplays potential damage to Obama from San Francisco remarks.

Tells reporters before Philadelphia party dinner that it could cost Obama “one or two points at the margin” in the Keystone State primary.
“But by the time November rolls around, I think this comment will be long forgotten.”

See, Bill Clinton knew the right way to say the same thing.

See, Bill Clinton knew the right way to say the same thing.

yes, he did. He said it better - but he did say it. Hell, books have been written on this subject. It is one of the major issues before the Democrats and has been for years. And she just belittled the shit out of it and has officially caused me to despise her utterly because she did.

I'm mad as hell at what Hillary is doing right now.

Not only is she working overtime hardening voters against Sen. Obama, her behavior is turning thousands of people off the Democratic party, people that had given up on politics, but that because of Sen. Obama came under the tent and dared to believe that the Democratic party could be once again the party of ideals, the party of the people, the party that doesn't just play politics to win at all costs.

That the DNC leaders are letting this go one ONE MORE SECOND is reprehensible.

And you just have to see this:

I Predict:

After President Obama has just completed delivering his first Inaugural Address, From her home on Elba, Senator Hillary Rambo Clinton, The Heroine of Tuzla, issues a statement that reads:

Inaugural Addresses are just words; I demand that President Obama come to Elba and debate me on the issues that all the ecstatic unemployed, god and gun loving, people of small town America really care about.

I'm mad as hell at what Hillary is doing right now.

PA resident here...

Just want to say that we received that Robocall about 2 days ago. We already think that what he said was right on the money and the firestorm over this completely manufactured so we didn't bother to listen to the whole thing.

Anyway, just wanted to point out that it's been out for longer than just today.

Wow, do I hate robocalls. What's that? Obama's doing them? Wow, I love robocalls.

I snarked at Greg the other day, too, and then I felt bad about it. I wasn't really upset with Greg - I was upset with the circumstances - I didn't know what to say about the post and blamed that on Greg.

LOL!!

comments boards are very interesting places.

I got robocalls from the Clintons - it was a recording of Bill, and too long, of course, over and over before the primary here. I got exactly one from Obama the day before.

I actually listened all the way through to Bill, just cause I like his voice. I'd already voted - I voted early. I also listened all the way through to Obama's - I wanted see what they were saying.

It wasn't so bad.

From a Canadian.

I listened to Senator Obama speak and it seemed that he was making it up as he went along. And then his truthful remark gets a dozen pre-packaged attacks from Senator Clinton. When I heard her using Obama's comment as a prelude to evangelizing about "her faith" I thought it was repulsive.

If you look at the Pennsylvania numbers at Pollster, Hillary's numbers are still falling and Obama's are still rising. Hillary just doesn't campaign well.

HusseinTenaX,
Thought you might be interested to know what a self identified conservative Republican senior partner in a law firm here in Austin had to say when I was driving him to the Airport in my for hire charter van -he said - as we were discussing politics like we always do -he said that he was so disgusted with the present state of affairs that he would be voting for Obama- he cited the illegal occupation of iRAQ, the politicalization of the DOJ , the weak dollar , the lack of accountabilty for the sub prime speculators for starters . Then this very senior partner said heck even us rich old lawyers are bitter too - and he fully appreciated Obama being on point about all the bitterness out here in our body politics !

Nope there will be kissing & making up with the
Turdblossoms acolytes. They have used and abused lADY Liberty & our Constitution far too long for any kissin & making up . You can feel it down here in Texas - we are just fixin to hand'em back there neocons asses on a platter - if we could just please get the Clintons to fade into the glimmering sunset

Geez are Robocalls annoying. Thank you Obama :) A commercial to keep this gaffe alive? Thank you Hillary :)

Yep. I feel it too - it's amazing.

I've gone from a Hillary supporter to someone who will donate to her Democratic challenger when she loses this election and decides to rerun for her Senate seat. Chalk it up to bitterness.

"I don't understand why if he's comments are so inoffensive, neither he nor his campaign nor his supporters are willing to defend them on what he actually said." Of course he's defended what he actually said, on more than one occasion. Surely you didn't miss this:

The "...cling to guns, religion...(etc.)" bit was obviously referring to ISSUES, not God Himself or literal guns. Clinton is being intellectually dishonest and condescending to pretend she doesn't get that. Old quotes from her husband would suggest he agrees with Obama.
