After just one hour of CNN - I now know every reason Obama can't win
the GE.

Fuck you CNN - it's not going to be that easy this time. He's won plenty of the different groups that you claim he can't win to become President.

Your days of spinning are numbered. Once we take the WH again, we'll clean out the Congress and put people willing to represent the People back in office, and we'll put the regulations back that let you spin and twist everything to promote your corporate agenda

2. Last time Wolf went racist, we emailed the show
and said "between you and Dobbs, we're going to call you the KKK Network". There was a statement the next day.

Take names, tell us the show. Let's push back.

6. I think you're right...
I don't watch..but when I read or watch a youtube of someone saying something particularly egregious I email. I don't know how people can take a daily diet of this stuff, and I really wish these media soap opera's would fade into oblivion, but as long as they continue to be relevant, an email is the least I can do.

3. unfortunately, much of the public believes this bullshit and...
..they don't want to vote for a "loser" (which they're painting him as for whatever assinine reason they can come up with), so they don't.

LOTS of sheeple watch CNN, MSNBC, Faux, etc.

4. After spending 2 1/2 days at the Texas Democratic Convention, I know some reasons Obama can win.
Eight thousand delegates, and thousands more of alternates, at the biggest TX Dem State Convention ever, aching to "turn Texas blue." (Following on 3,000 delegates, alternates and others at the county caucus in Denton County alone; and the 1 million who turned out for the caucuses on the night of the primary.)

Rethug Senator Cornyn running only a few percentage points ahead of his Democratic challenger, before the campaign has really begun, so before thousands of grassroots activists go out to really campaign.

Obama is challenging "red" states nationwise, so maybe not Texas, but he will likely take some "safe" Rethug states.

$4.00 a gallon gas, and a price that will only go up.

Deepening recession, rising mortgage foreclosures, rising layoffs; and a populace increasingly aware that they need to blame the Rethugs for their plight.

So, it's certainly no done deal -- but Obama CAN WIN.
