Billo: If Clinton gets it with superdelegates Obama supporters will "tear that arena down"
Edited on Wed Feb-06-08 08:24 PM by Proud2BAmurkin
He said the PRESS would make sure they whipped up the Obama supporters if they had to. He said the MSM and the REPUBLICAN media wants Obama to win.
Also said if the same thing happened to Clinton (superdelegates give it to Obama) there wouldn't be the same reaction.

True or false? Would Obama lead his supporters against the revolt or would he let them "tear that arena down"?

1. Oh yeah, because threats of violence will unite the nation so much
Try tearing the arena down. We'll see what happens to Obama's reputation.

4. Are you suggesting Obama would condone acts of terrorism?
Why would you say that?

30. It seems to me that ORELY is whistling past the graveyard
and that looking at the primary voter turnout for the D vs R parties, they see their one party rule
going down in flames.

Listening to Pat Buchanan dissing McCain on MSNBC, I heard the unalloyed hatred
of the defeated against their scapegoat. When McCain is crushed in a way that
makes McGovern look close, he can say that it was for trancndent philosophical reasons.

He's in denial, they all are. Next comes bargaining.

13. I put more credence in Fox than MSNBC lately. At least Billo admitted MSM bias for Obama
And since it has been objectively proved it wasn't Billo talking out of his ass

12. No. But, you can be DAMN SURE that Clinton will not get their votes in the general.
Clinton, if annointed by the DINO/DLC corporatists, will LOSE in the general election. It's a simple fact that many of the delusional Clintonites around here are in denial about.

Voters don't like it too much when their choice is superceded by party insider establishment superdelegates.

You have to be fucking kidding. DildO'Reilly has all the credibility of a troup of drunken baboons.
Grasping at straws, much?

18. super delegates earned the right to vote the way they believe the party is best served..
if Obama is truly a democrat, he will not allow his ego and ambition to get in the way of the party staying united...

but then I don't trust him!

Billo's baseless slander of Obama just shows that HE prefers to have Hillary and will use passive aggressive bullshit like this to try to bring that about.

29. What are you trying to accomplish with this post? Are you creating a straw person
so we divide among ourseleves, and then destroy ourseleves by not supporting whoever the candidate is in the general election?

We do not know if it is even going to be an issue

but lets throw more fuel into the GD:Primaries area because we are already so friendly toward each other

33. I am an Obama supporter, and I won't tear any doors down. Not because of that
However, I will be quite upset if they allow MI and FL to be seated without having another primary in those states

Except for that one exception, I will support whoever the Democratic nominee is

The only thing this forum area is doing is building disunity among us, and it occurs on both sides

Skinner was quite smart to move it where it belongs, in the cellar

34. Superdelegates
In my opinion...I think that Hillary is going to get the nomination straight up. However, should it come down to Superdelegates, so be it. I think it will cause some turmoil within those who are staunch Obama supporters, but I think that as a good politician, Obama should go with what the party says and encourage his entourage to do so as well. I mean, I do not see how much of an uproar this could cause. If we look at the popular vote on the DNC side from last night, it was pretty much a 50/50 tie. I know I am a Hillary supporter first, but should Obama win the nomination I am behind him 100%, and I would think and hope that the same would be for anyone supporting Obama!

35. He may well be right for once
I definitely think Obama cares more about his own political ambitions than he does the democratic party.
