A "bitter" Misstep.....WSJ

[hell-bent]

Interesting article by Kimberley A. Strassel in the WSJ. Despite outspending Hillary in ads in Pennsylvania, has BO's momentum been derailed by his foolish, elitist remarks? http://online.wsj.com/article/SB120847778343424885.html?mod=todays_columnists

1. Nope

[gateley]

2. We'll find out next week. Until then, it's all conjecture. nt

[wowimthere]

3. Kimberley's opinion... Dumb... out of touch... wrongheaded thinking. People are bitter!

[death to the DLC]

4. keep dreaming

it's remarkable, people refuse to understand that "what worked before" doesn't apply anymore.

NOT. THIS. TIME.

[Avalux]

5. WSJ knows best? I think not.

It's the voters who are determining the course of this race, not WSJ opinions.

6. LOL

There were a lot of bitter people Wednesday night during that debate. Maybe if some of you keep telling yourself that folks are not bitter it will come true, maybe, one day.

7. Not an aricle but an opinion piece by a right winger in a right wing paper

Kimberley A. Strassel is an author and member of the Wall Street Journal Editorial Board. Her opinions are generally conservative. She writes a weekly column, "Potomac Watch", which appears on Fridays.


Strassel graduated from Princeton University in 1994 with a B.A. in Public Policy and International Affairs. Before joining the Editorial Board she was a news assistant for the European edition of the WSJ in Brussels (1994-1996) and a staff writer covering technology for the WSJ Europe in London (1996-1999). She moved to New York in 1999 to cover real estate before quickly joining the editorial page as an assistant features editor. She became a senior editorial writer and member of the editorial board in 2005. She is married to British-born journalist Matthew Rose.

In 2006, Strassel co-wrote Leaving Women Behind: Modern Families, Outdated Laws (ISBN 0-7425-4545-8), which argues that government regulation interferes with marketplace initiatives to provide women with economic opportunity.

10. Thank you!

Confusing articles with op-eds... that's one of my pet peeves.

17. It's one of mine as well. Many people don't seem to know

the difference.

18. Well your Majesty,

an article is defined in the Webster's dictionary as: 1.A particular object or thing.; 2.A composition written for or appearing in a NEWSPAPER, magazine,etc.; 3. A distinct proposition, statement, or stipulation in a series of such as in a constitution, treaty,etc. ......................Perhaps you need some schooling on what constitutes an ARTICLE before making a fool out of yourself. Did I use the word article correctly? Consider yourself owned!

24. Good GOD that is sad.

I can't wait for this primary to be over.

The signal to noise ratio just gets worse and worse.

[Warren Stupidity]

8. Imagine: the Republican Establishment Press dislikes Obama!

Who would have thunk? I do enjoy the irony of the WSJ containing anything about 'elitism'. Har!

[backscatter712]

9. Another stinker from Rupert Murdoch's Wall Street Urinal...

After News Corp. bought the WSJ out, they've been creating the same abysmal right wing garbage as the FAUX Noise Channel.

[DefenseLawyer]

11. The WSJ is against Obama? Say it ain't so!

He gets low marks from National Review AND the American Spectator as well. He should just drop out.

[NJmaverick]

12. The fact that the WSJ supports Hillary is yet another reason to vote Obama!

[JoFerret]

20. They don't.

13. WSJ opinion columnists: champion of the little guy

:rofl:

[IntravenousDemilo]

14. I guess Barack Obama's sad fate is that...

...unless he's talking to someone such as Stephen Hawking, he's always going to be the smartest person in the room. It's a difficult burden for a politician seeking to lead a population composed largely of mouth-breathers. For me, economic elite = bad, but intellectual elite = good.

[Vinca]

15. Guess his momentum isn't too derailed, judging from recent polling. nt

[hell-bent]

19. It appears that 11 point lead

has been trimmed a bit since the debate. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/us/democratic_presidential_nomination-191.html

23. By some polls, not by others, but not to worry he will

come back because Hillary's campaign style is beyond negative and nasty, it is disgusting. Before I would have been happy with either Clinton or Obama, but her recent campaign tactics have pushed me solidly into Obama territory.

[bridgit]

16. I think his candidacy is slowing down due to his glib, frat-boy humor...

'a' world might, but *thee* world does not reside on the "rough & tumble" south side of ChiTown. At a glance it is more 'rough' more 'tumble' than that. And the fact that the Obama's have a hard time absorbing what they prefer to dish out proves they are having a tougher time of understanding where the boundaries are.

[Danger Mouse]

21. WSJ = Right wing garbage.

Can't you find better to back up your assertions?

[frylock]

22. i'll reserve judgement until the washington times weighs in
