Kristol, Sludge, and Tucker are all DESPERATE for an Obama primary victory
Edited on Thu Jan-17-08 03:02 PM by Proud2BAmurkin
A sign of Obama "uniting" all stripes?

Or a sign of the arsenal they know they're going to unleash on Barack "Hussein" Obama beginning the day after his hypothetical nomination.

The best way of determining which is true is recent history. Anyone who thinks Obama won't be sunk by these pukes in the first week after he was nominated is so irrational he's a danger to himself and others.

1. Obama is untested. They know they can defeat him in the GE.

3. It will take them less than a week to drag him down to 34% and he'll never get above. nt

10. They will actually attack him. Hillary has not done anything.
And Obama's righteous indignation: "How dare you mention that" will NOT work with the Republicans.
It will be Inexperienced, Rezko, Cocaine, Inexperienced, Muslim, Hussein, Madrassa, Inexperienced, Is he Al Qaeda? Rezko, BLACK, Cocaine, 24/7.....I doubt he can pull 30% in the GE.

15. LOL yea but they will leave Hillary alone
Hillary has yet to even start to face the wrath they will unleash on her. No one has gone after her yet in the primaries. Obama on the other hand has been hit with all the bullshit from the HRC camp allready.

Sorry but your dog dont hunt.

19. Of course they will. But Hillary supporters do not hold delusions that the GOP
will play nice. Obama supporters do. And there is SOOOO much more dirt on Obama than Hillary - and everything has been flogged for 15 years.

28. Surely you jest?
"Hillary has not done anything."

Travel office.
Rose law firm.
FBI files.
Cattle futures.
"Vast right-wing conspiracy."
Vince Foster suicide? Or murder?

And that's just for starters.

Now, I know and you know that all those 'scandals' are 'Arkansas Project' inventions.

But if Hillary is the nominee you will hear them and many more every single day until the whole nation will be absolutely sick of her.

I'm just sayin' ....

34. First of all, I meant she has not done anything to Obama...No attacks.
Secondly, those issues are all RW concoctions and are already built into Hillary's numbers.
Obama is NOT a known quantity.

40. Oh, geez for the umpteenth time...right wing smear campaign that led to NOTHING after...
...all those millions of taxpayers' money spent to dig up as much dirt as they could.

Go peddle your stuff on Free Republic, please.

43. Get Real
I acknowledged these 'scandals' were right-wing inventions.

But if you think that just because you are tired of this stuff and think everyone else is too -- are you going to be in for a BIG surprise.

Every single one of them will be updated and revisited with renewed enthusiasm by the repugs.

Remember, the charges from the swiftboaters in 2004 had all been brought up before against Kerry. But they repackaged them ... and we all know what happened.

Clinton is reviled in a way most DUers cannot comprehend -- if she is nominated, I predict President Bloomberg. (I'm not saying I want to see that, that is just what I think will happen.)

32. The fact that he is an unknown quantity is actually making them nervous
I don't think they anticipated how difficult it is to fight against Obama. HRC is also finding it hard.

11. and you base this on what?
your partisan hatred of Obama?

Cause he is looking better than clinton in the national polls and if you dont think she is a clusterfuck waiting to happen in the GE you are delusional.

21. Damn. I just can't keep track of it all.
But you're right about Carlson:

CARLSON: I have often said, when she (Hillary Clinton) comes on television, I involuntarily cross my legs.

GEIST: I know you do.

CARLSON: Boy, she scares me. I cross my legs every time she talks, every time. Pat Buchanan, Melinda Henneberger, thank you very much. No, it's true. It's involuntary. I don't mean it, but I do every single time.

GEIST: Tucker, do you really cross your legs when Hillary Clinton talks?

CARLSON: Oh, every time, involuntarily. It's like those pictures you see of the soccer goalie when they're about to get the free kick. That's me when she talks. I can't help it.

I guess Carlson prefers Obama because he's convinced Hillary, if elected, would castrate him. This was enlightening for me because until I found this quote, I was under the impression that Tucker Carlson had no balls. It's a good day when you learn something new.

25. Hillary has pre-scripted attacks
Checkout this post on Free Republic:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1954760/posts?page=9#9

Hillary is captioned with the text, "Whitewater?"{laughing } "I thought everyone had forgot about that. No,That was ALL Bill. I had nothing to do with that."

Um, the Clintons did nothing wrong in Whitewater and there are still people who don't know that. At least Obama is starting with a clean slate — FWIW.

23. The Democrats can run Zippy the Pinhead in 2008 and win.
I sit near a guy who is a SERIOUS conservative. He cites his John Bircher father-in-law as his "greatest influence." Even he's considering voting for the Democratic candidate this year.

It wouldn't surprise me if the Democratic candidate takes Texas this year. It wouldn't surprise me if he or she didn't, but this is the first time in my lifetime that I can say that it wouldn't surprise me if he or she did.

33. "Obama is more electable than either Hillary Clinton or John Edwards & and it's not even close."
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x4089155

Zogzy says the neocons are hoping Hillary gets in (Washington Journal 12-30-07 first guest) PLUS it's a familiar fight for the GOP. She fails miserably in polling going up against the Republicans.

Still want to stick by your OP with a straight face? ;)
