Lapel flag pin...

[elixir]

Just one of many issues the MSM/GOP has begun to use in attacking Obama. Seems silly, doesn't it? A small and inconsequential factor that they'll use to plant questions in people's minds. That's how they do it, next it will be something just as meaningless that will be played over and over again creating uncertainty.

If Obama wins the nomination this is how it will play out when he and McCain go toe to toe. The seasoned, patriarcal, independent, POW with nothin' - and I mean nothing! - to lose against the young, idealistic, untested senator with one state term and one year in the senate under his belt (he spent several years in the presidential campaign). The politically young senator who never waged a real campaign against anyone now has to face the highly seasoned, politically savvy senior senator who's run against - that's right George Bush. The George Bush who kicked his ass royally. The George Bush/repug machine that spread lies about his "illegitimate black child" and his wife's drug habit. McCain has been exposed to the best of the worst and he will not allow an untested upstart to take this away from him.

1. if he doesn't wear a flag pin the flag ceases to exist, same thing with displaying the 10 commandmen

on public land, i wear a full size flag and i carry around a 4 ton granite 10 commandments monument on my back.

[cottonseed]

3. It will be tough no doubt.

The victory will be doubly satisfying.

[TalkAgain]

4. Isn't Obama fighting against the best right now? The name the history

the connections, the inside the party playbook, the loyalties, the owed favors, the money...etc. Hillary has no excuses here, none.

12. Hillary hasn't touched him. They've treated him w/ kid gloves. keep fooling yourselves.

[Olney Blue]

9. Perhaps they would be more comfortable if he dressed this way.

14. illinois senate terms are 2 or 4 years long - try again n/t

[elixir]

19. "...one state term and one year in the senate under his belt ..."

I mentioned the state term.

[Muttocracy]

23. it couldn't have been one term - he was reelected - try again again nt

16. Touched by your concern...

...but those of us who support Obama have already heard these accusations from GOP types months ago. Trying visiting Media Matters for America and doing a search on Obama. Outlets like Fox News have already slung a bunh of mud at him. Rush Limbaugh was playing a song on his radio station called 'Barack the Magic Negro'. Don't even get me started on the 'but he's a muslim, I tell ya!' nonsense.

Hillary supporters have been complaining the MSM gives Obama a free ride. That's going to be the mantra of conservatives right up until election day, because they've already tried the smears and nothing sticks. They were well ready for a fight with Hillary, but Obama scares the pants off them. Interestingly, if you look at some of the conservative websites like Worldnetdaily and so on, half of their ad slots are vacant because the market for Anti-Hillary merchandise, books, and so on is suddenly drying up. The conservative blogosphere is experiencing its own recession right now - they don't like McCain much, the woman they have loved to hate since 1992 looks to be losing the race for the nomination, and Obama-hatred isn't a hot product. Ouch.

Incidentally McCain's wife did have a prescription drug habit. She admitted it herself. Just as a matter of fact.

18. I like that part

17. Yeah, That Was One Of The Lies in the "OBAMA IS A MUSLIM" email hoax

Been debunked, but still propagated by the Clintonistas.

Norman Tsu. Monica Lewinski. Filegate. Whitewater. Pardongate.

[IsItJustMe]

22. Wow. Your just beaming with optimism. Sure you are on the right web site?

[Muttocracy]

24. who was Mrs. Clinton's tough opponent

"The politically young senator who never waged a real campaign against anyone"

Name Clinton's tough opponents for NY Senate seat?

[Hekate]

26. Don't worry, they'll just make things up as they go along, plus they'll troll DU for material...

That's why we Democrats should vow to have our candidates' backs instead of tearing down those that aren't our personal favorites.
