Ha! McSame thinks the winning formula to beat Obama is to talk about all the progress in Iraq? Wow. Can you say... delusional. With any luck, McSame will keep talking about how great things are going in Iraq every day from now until November.

Right on the money.

Editorial from today's LA Times

"Clinton is now running commercials in Indiana, site of the next Democratic primary on Tuesday, attacking Obama for his policy on gasoline prices. Never mind that there is almost no chance of getting her proposal through Congress before Memorial Day, even if it made sense. Here's hoping the people of Indiana can see through this ploy."

O'Reilly: "Can you believe this Rev. Wright guy? Can you believe this guy?"

Clinton: "Well, I'm going to leave it up to voters to decide."

Let the voters decide? I wasn't aware the Rev. Wright was running for office.

Uh, hello.... As has been reported ad nausuem, Hillary would have win every remaing contest 65-35 to pull even in pledged delegates. Won't happen in one state much less all of them. And after Obama wins NC that number will increase to 70+.

She would have to win 55-45 in all the remaining contests to pull even in popular vote. Also won't happen.

Bottom line is that after all the states have voted, Obama will have a 100+ pledged delegates lead and also a lead in the popular vote.

If you think that there would be no ramifications if the super dels overturned those results and gave the nomination to Hillary, then you are clearly delusional. The race is over. Deal with it.

Gotalife: I hope the McCain campaign is paying you well. I'm curious though. Are they paying you hourly or by the post?

Can we stop with the endless conjecture about what will or won't sway the super dels already? It is irrelevant becuase the super dels will never overturn Obama's 100+ pledged delegate lead. It would destroy the party, and they know that.

Obama pissed off Move On & Daily Kos? Good!!! It will only help improve his standing in the general election. With any luck, he can find a way to piss off MIchael Moore too.

How completely arrogant and shortsighted of Move On, Kos, etc... to lose sight of the bigger picture.

Posted at April 28, 2008 4:20 PM in response to MoveOn Hammers Obama For Fox News Appearance

So, this bigot Greg Davis wants to use prejudice and fear mongering to get himself elected? Why get mad, when you can get even?

If enough Obama supporters start donating to Travis Childers, his Democratic opponent, we can reward his lack of decency with a little poetic justice.

The only thing that would have "helped" Fox is if Obama had gone on and been combative. They then could have played the clips endlessly and said see: "Obama can't even give a courteous interview. We warned you about him. He's not ready. blah, blah, blah..."

Criticism of the aide for raising expectations is justified. But criticism of Obama for not taking the bait and challenging Wallace on air is absurd. I doubt there is a more damaging thing he could do to his campaign than go on Fox and come off as combative.

He did exactly what he had to do: come off as calm and rational, which not only helps him with the people who only get their news from Fox and at the same time, it makes it more difficult for the network to demonize him. So, yes, not taking the bait does indeed hurt Fox.

Sorry to break the bad news to you, but back here on planet earth none of those scenarios are going to happen, much less all of them.

Savor your fantasies while you can though, you only have a little over week to enjoy them before they'll be gone for good.
