“The “pump fake” of Bayh is also echoed by the earlier press frenzy over Kaine, according to Giordano. Giordano says he has no idea who the choice will be, but maintains they will chose an “outsider” to reinforce Obama’s “change” meme. He says that a non-endorsement of Obama could even be a good thing. Giordano hints severely at Sebelius or Schweitzer (through reader’s comments) getting the nod. Al Gore is also mentioned by his astute reader’s.”
There are morons on the right as well.
“But growing Obama fatigue among voters after his pseudo-presidential visit to Europe and the Middle East has unleashed a wave of satirical fire, mocking Mr Obama for his apparent belief that he has the election in the bag.”
“No Democratic candidate for president has ever come so close to calling for an end to the era of identity-based affirmative action as has Barack Obama.”
“A coup has taken place in the north-west African republic of Mauritania, where the army has seized the President and the Prime Minister after the President sacked several top army officers.”
“Prime Minister Vladimir Putin is calling for Russia to regain its influential position in former Cold War ally Cuba, Russian news reports said Monday.”
If in fact Obama did not place race on his application because he saw moral turpitude in his action, I would respect him a great deal…to the point that my position on Obama might be antithetical to before.
“For all the talk about John McCain’s hard-hitting politics, Barack Obama is hardly innocent.
Both candidates and their allies are fully engaged in creating unflattering caricatures of each other that they hope will stick in voters’ minds for the next three months.”
“Just tell me one thing Barack Obama has done that you admire,” I asked a prominent Democrat. He paused and then said that he admired Obama’s speech to the Democratic convention in 2004. I agreed. It was a hell of a speech, but it was just a speech
“The truth is that the Obama people want nothing to do with a debate. They’ve seen the Obamessiah away from the teleprompter. He’s a disaster. The gravitas gap would be substantial, noticeable and embarassing.”
