The MSM's Golden Dream: Contention at the Convention starring the Clintons
Edited on Mon Aug-25-08 01:14 PM by Roberto1223
I was just listening to Joe Scumborough say on MSNBC with Brian WIlliams and some woman shill for John McMethuselah saying that with Missouri moving into McCain's column, for the first time they (Buchanan, Ford, Scumborough, et al) can now say that McCain may win this thing. The MSM is playing up this thing of Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton not happy and McCain putting commercials saying that Hillary was "passed over" instead of Biden.

So, with friends like Ford who needs enemies. We expect this from Buchanan and Scumborough, but Ford should show spine and cojones. Why are the McLame surrogates much stronger than Obama's? :mad:

Now, the PUMAs should STFU, if they do not want to vote for Obama then they should become the LIONs: Let's Irritate Obama Nationally and join the GOP and their reward will be:

1. Justice Janice Rogers Brown replacing Ruth Bader Ginsburg
2. Justice Miguel Estrada replacing John Paul Stevens
3. Restriction on mammographies, no coverage for birth control pills (remember no coverage for Viagra either)
4. Restrictions on equal pay for women and the minimum wage
5. Passage of the Defense of Marriage Act.
6. Repeal of Roe v. Wade with Justices Brown, Alito, Estrada, Scalia, Thomas, Roberts voting to repeal against Justices Breyer, Souter, and Kennedy in a 6-3 vote.
7. Restriction on affirmative action
8. Persecution of undocumented immigrants
9. Incarceration of physicians and nurses who perform abortions even if the mother's life is at risk or after rape and incest.
10. Increase in the poverty rate in the United States.
11. Insolvent Medicare due to continuation of Bush/McCain policies throwing our seniors into poverty clinics since physicians will no longer accept Medicare and Medicaid due to poor reimbursement

Here is what Hillary MUST do on Tuesday:
a) Attack McCain viciously and reject and repudiate him for his low road campaign and for putting himself ahead of nation. She should distance herself from McCain unequivocally.
b) Release her delegates and enthusiastically endorse Obama and let the MSM know that there is no space between her and Obama in moving the country forward. There should be no doubt about her support. She should tell the PUMAs of the grave dangers to their beliefs and way of life if they help elect McCain, who actually is worse than Bush.
c) Campaign vigorously and tirelessly on behalf of Obama in the Midwest states alongside with Biden and Obama.

1. Ford, Carville and Rendell are saying damaging things because they are expected to
by those who they are loyal to...and it AIN'T the Dem party.

2. Y'know, as an avid Hillary supporter, this was a pretty decent, honest read up until part d)

Please give consideration to excising that needlessly catty bit at the end, which somewhat detracts from an important message.

6. Divide and Conquer. MSM doing their best to help the GOP.
They know Democrats are poised to win this election and are doing everything to convince the public of something that doesn't exist. The Repubican operative PUMA's are icing on the cake.
