Hey Obama fans, can you guys get Kerry on the air AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE?
Edited on Wed Feb-06-08 01:45 PM by Lirwin2
Anyone remember how during the 2004 election, his poll numbers dropped the more people saw of him? He is apparently having the same effect on the Obama campaign :rofl::rofl::rofl:


PLEAAAAASE get this guy on the air, I want people to be listening to him 24/7! :rofl:

5. Kerry is our own?
I was told to vote for him or we'd have 4 more years of Bush. He didn't even bother to call them on BLATANT election fraud(5+ million votes).

When people like Kerry or Bill spend more time in public stumping for people, we tend to get less forgiving of their shortcomings.

9. A vote for Kerry was a vote against Bush.

19. I would say this for the Clinton campaign also-Kerry being out there as
the front spokesperson was not a wise political choice for a variety of reasons.

comments? how about it?

in HER administration if God forbid it comes to that. Can you believe the most popular president in a generation as being somebody the campaign has to "keep in line"?

Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, and Utah. Oh, and capturing more delegates. That was nice, too.

in the meantime Obama surrogates toxified the stew!! (talking the MLK comments that started this Swiftboating attach on Bill. C.)

20. Yeah, they seem to forget that little tidbit
They like to focus on their Divide & Conquer strategy that the Clinton's have been so keen to use to get their way. If they want to play slash and burn politics, thats fine, but don't be surprised when the very people they have bashed on this board for daring to go against Her Royal Highness aren't too eager to campaign for her or donate their hard earned money to her.

22. Which makes this "HAHA KERRY/KENNEDY HURT OBAMA" business insane. He shot up in the polls after,
and ended up winning ten more states than he was set to before TK's endorsement. I wouldn't say it's all Kennedy--or even that it's mostly Kennedy--but saying that Kennedy hurt him is bizarre.

What really hurt Obama is the number of early voters; they went for Hillary much more than day-of voters.

30. Early voters were key for Hillary
The fact that he was able to close the gap in these states is amazing to me, especially given how far behind he is. I expect this to continue as we go forward, which bodes very well for Obama.

However, I'm very concerned about the convention. We could be looking at something that will make Gore v. Bush 2000 pale in comparison and will seriously fracture the party.

15. Would you dislike Kerry so much if he had endorsed Hillary ?
Really, she was unforgiving of his "botched joke". He was turned off and and went for the other candidate. I proudly voted for Kerry in 2004. No one can say he would have been worse than Bush. I think he would have made a very good president actually.

I haven't seen it from Obama, but maybe he'll shed a tear or two for Hillary for having "fought so hard".

Let's not forget it was McAuliffe and the DLC powermongers who refused to back him in challanging the results in Ohio.

And who are THEY supporting now?

Just being the supporter of a different candidate shouldn't mean that a person like Kerry deserves ridicule.

so that Obama was even competitive there, I can only imagine what he could do elsewhere.

And he was elsewhere. Must be part of the reason Obama won 13 states, eh?
