23. The Obama campaign have a lot of people tyring to encourage
Edited on Sat Feb-23-08 06:32 PM by Henny Penny
their "campaign " to go viral.

You will notice the style is pretty similar they don't engage with most people who disagree with them unless it is to drive a thread off topic... see the discussion of the term hysterical above.

Obama is the right wing's hedge... and no matter how much people would like to believe that Obama is so good he is winning over even the right wing pundits... I'm afraid its all a con. A well constructed fantasy.

Hillary is a very good candidate. I don't agree with all her policies by any means but she has the potential to win. A good strategist would have seen that after Bush people were going to want a change and a woman candidate represented that. This woman also carried the promise to the return to some semblance of the halcyon days of Clinton I.

How can you defeat such a candidate? By selecting one that represents even greater change. A young candidate. A black candidate. With those choices you have partly negated the "time for a woman" voters. Those people are now torn.

And of course they get a lot of people to go online to constantly throw mud in a predefined subtle way. Hillary has lost state x, y or z.... Hillary is losing it.... Hillary is out of cash.... and so on. Drip... drip ... drip.


Obama is their hedge and his campaign is being run like a CIA people power revolution.

JMHO of course.
