Clinton won more votes than Obama on Super Tuesday.
Edited on Thu Feb-07-08 03:08 PM by Proud2BAmurkin
That's with the entire MSM, the Democratic establishement, Oprah, wives of Republican governors, and fake polls against her candidacy.

Pretty damn impressive.

Obama is a weak and untested candidate with a thin resume and one year in the Senate before he ran for president.

It isn't quite clear why his supporters are supporting him.

2. Obama is a secret agent from another planet here to take over the world
Edited on Thu Feb-07-08 03:10 PM by dmordue
Those who support him, like myself, our taking over peoples minds to bend their actions to our will. Its just a matter of time before we have complete control. You never know who you meet on the street is secretly part of this vast intergalactic conspiracy....Resistance is futile.

4. I guess most Democrats didn't buy the "she's a racist" OBaloney.
Democrats are much smarter than Obama thinks they are.

8. oh for pity's sake, pubic wig,
she won less than .04% more of the vote. Duh. Do you have some sort of learning disability? Because that's about as close to a tie as you can get, merkymuck. And that's bullshit of the first order about the dem establishment being against her. Another stinking pile excreted by DU's most prolific shitter. She has almost twice as many SD endorsements as Obama. That IS the dem establishment, genius. And she has fucking President Bill Clinton in her corner too.

Her inabiltiy to knock him out on 2/5 is a sign of real weakness. And your crapping your little panties about it, muckface, shows you know it.

Hillary won the popular vote by a few thousand votes. :)

We should start calling you Mr. Strawman :)

15. Why don't you?
Instead of bitching and moaning about Obama supporters day in and day out for the last few days?

Go outside and get some sun. The last thing DU needs right now is your constant negativity.

Lighten up. :)

24. Typical Obama supporter
no good ideas or policy debate, just attack, attack, attack.

Why don't you go see a shrink about your anger management problem?

The one thing we can look forward to is that you'll all clear out of here after the election.

Lighten up indeed :-)

28. you're so immune to speaking any word that's truthful
and you're constantly throwing out to anyone who disagrees with you that they need mental health help. That poster's comments weren't angry. YOURS are. And many, many long time posters are supporting Obama. You have zero say over whether they'll go. And they won't, pickles.

You contribute nothing useful. You're disconcertingly ignorant and you're a shrill little attack dog.

You never write anything substantive.

In short, you're pathetic.

" ... with a thin resume and one year in the Senate before he ran for president."


And yet, he's in a dead heat with Clinton. Pretty damn impressive.

16. Hey, are you still not going to vote for Obama if he's the nominee?
Yes, Hillary got what, .25 of one percent more votes than Obama. Big whoop:eyes:

And what you call the "entire MSM" being against her, most objective viewers say is the MSM is no longer in their "inevitable Hillary" mode and they themselves are being more objective. Besides, now Hillary has got Rush and Coulter in her corner, some good must come of that:eyes:

And with the backing of Penn, RFK Jr., McAullife, From, a former president, Richardson, etc. etc., I think that Hillary is carrying plenty of the Democratic establishment in her back pocket as well.

Whine, whimper, whine, that's all you can do. So are you still not going to vote for Obama if he's the nominee? That's what you were throwing a tantrum about yesterday, just checking to see if you've changed your mind.

17. But it's not voters that count -
It's not about the hundreds of thousands of votes in empire states like New York or California, it's not about the great Democratic cities and neighborhoods.

This is about over-excited Obama Youth and their well-paid "organizers" engineering caucus putsches in the wide open spaces of North Dakutah and Further Montidaho.

This is about delegate-stripping and disenfanchisement, and what's the big deal? Floridians should be used to it by now.

And this is about refusing to get up there and place our choices side by side in head-to-head debates now that the country is actually paying attention: after all, we had umpteen debates back last year with Chris Dodd and Mike Gravel and the rest of the crowded field. Debates? No more debates: we have a fierce urgency to "spend more time with voters" (who already support the candidate) at huge pumped-up rallies with shouts and slogans, calls and responses, soaring empty rhetoric and youthful tears of joy.

It's not about "voters" - Ha! It's all about the O.

Besides, I love the stupid shit he comes up with, like how he won't vote for Obama in the general.

Also, it is fun to poke and prod him:evilgrin:

I can't fathom how Hillary supporters think she can win the GE without indies or disaffected rethugs?

She has higher negatives then any candidate for either party.

What about that = victory?

38. I Agree As It Relates To Your Clinton Comments. But Calling Obama A 'Weak' Candidate Is A Bit Much.
I think Hillary is superior, but I wouldn't say for a second that Obama could be considered a 'weak' candidate. Just because some of the Obama supporters take their rhetoric to insanely irrational and immature levels, doesn't mean that we have to criticize Obama more than he deserves. At the end of the day, we've got two great candidates here.

44. Not true. What about the caucus states?
We don't have popular vote totals for those states, and those just happen to be the states where Obama won by really big margins. Given that Clinton only beat Obama by 0.3% in those states where we have the popular vote totals, it is very likely that if we had the votes from the caucus states (several of which Obama won by 20+ points), that very slight lead would be erased and likely reversed.

like Iowa, fewer than half the population of San Francisco participate!
