My sons teacher has been an avid Hillary supporter since August but today she said to me.... |
|
Edited on Wed Jan-30-08 10:10 PM by horseface
"I am beginning to see the light with Obama." I have 3 school days left to bring her over from the dark side. I sent my first volley of Obama videos this morning by email. I had been witholding info all year because she is such a cool teacher and I was so shocked that she couldnt see. It was partially watching Ted Kennedy and partially something negative that her sister told her about Hillary.
I think these last 7 days will be enormous as far as the amount of shifting among the undecided.

20. I see "ignore" too...and since I keep seeing Ignore in Pro-Obama threads, |
|
I intially wondered if Ignored had changed views.
Guess not, based on responses.
Still just an interloper :shrug:

5. There's clearly movement to Obama. Can it happen soon enough? |
|
Every day between now and Super Tuesday is a bad day for the Clintons.
Can they keep the bucket from leaking all the water out until then?

6. She said, "I am beginning to see the light with Obama."? |

Were her eyeballs rolling round in their sockets and did she have stigmata on her hands? If so, she's completely in his thrall and she won't realize that he's "All hat, no cattle!" til February '09.
Tell your friend to go to church and stop looking for salvation in American politics!

Hillary's supporters NEVER post ANYTHING positive about her or her record at all. NEVER. It'a all been pure trashing of Obama for months. You want BEEF, here's BEEF. http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/legisnet90/sponsor/OBAMA.html

25. In my area a Democratic heavy weight confided that she is for Edwards. |

Edited on Wed Jan-30-08 10:58 PM by truedelphi
And that if he can't make it (Today shows, sadly, he can't) that she is for Obama.
I asked why not for Hillary.
"Why aren't you for Hillary?" she countered.
"My feeling is that if Barbara Boxer had thought it important enough to ally with the Black Caucus and not certify the voting results of the 2004 election, Hillary might have cared about it too. But she didn't."
She said, "Same Here."

26. Same thing just happened to me in a phone call with my brother. |
|
He lives in KY, so it won't matter much, but for some reason I couldn't dissuade him from HRC and I consider him somewhat informed. So, that was kind of a shocker, although he said his main reason for liking Hil was Bill back in the WH. Their primary is a long ways away, but I still thought it was interesting. And it REALLY happened, and he didn't "see the light", just took a closer look at the two candidates, but I'm sure the Hillary people will have something assinine to say anyway.

28. And here with a client. |
|
This lady was ardently pro-Hillary. The handshake nonsense turned her, she said it didn't reflect well at all on Hillary's character and the way her handlers peddled it.
