Received Mailers From Obama and HRC Today.....
Edited on Sat Feb-23-08 05:23 PM by OhioChick
I read them over very carefully, to see what each was saying. Obama's was all about what he would do as President......made no mention of HRC, whatsoever. His was a 3 page mailer.

HRC's was 1 page. Her front cover was what she intended on doing if elected as President. The ENTIRE back of the mailer had Obama's picture, smearing him. In big bold words reads: American Workers Can't Afford Barack Obama.

I talked to several neighbors while getting my mail. (As we often gather together and talk while retrieving our mail) Politics among neighbors has really gotten to be a hot button issue given the shape Ohio is in, job-wise....not to mention all the "For Sale" signs lining the streets.

Not one neighbor is intending on voting for HRC, but Obama instead. As we stood there talking, many mentioned how classless and desperate her mailer appeared. Those from Ohio want to hear what a candidate intends on doing for our City, as well as for our Country......not slamming and smearing the other candidate.

This is for the HRC supporters that wanted to "see" the mailer.

6. Oh for god's sakes, get a grip. Yes, the poster should run down to
Kinko's, scan her flyers, run back to the house and upload said flyers to the internet because a Hillary supporter doesn't believe her.

Pirhana, thats just not cool.

4. And will Obama come out and fake outrage over Hillary's flyer?
...no... because he has the temperment of a President.

7. But...but...but
Isn't negative campaigning what she just accused Obama of doing?

I hope Obama brings the two mailers to the debate.

Edited on Sat Feb-23-08 05:00 PM by godai
And he calmly reads...American workers can't afford Barack Obama...Hillary, is that your idea of fair campaigning?

17. Here's a link to another negative Clinton mailer.
Edited on Sat Feb-23-08 05:05 PM by godai
She loves to refer to Dick Cheney's Energy bill.

http://news.aol.com/political-machine/2008/02/08/veritas-clinton-mailer-harolds-dirty-war/

"Hillary Clinton has just proliferated a mailer via snail mail which FactCheck.org declares, "twists Obama's words and gives a false picture of his proposals." The mailer accuses Obama of 1) wanting "to raise Social Security taxes by a trillion dollars" (a "big distortion"), 2) having "no plan" for a moratorium on foreclosures (falsely deceiving) and 3) voting for "Dick Cheney's energy bill that gives huge tax breaks to oil companies (largely distorted)."

20. I think the majority of dems have had enough of Hillary
Edited on Sat Feb-23-08 05:21 PM by catgirl
I hope Ohio and Texas will help end the torment. While she still has
a large chunk of loyal supporters, she is driving the rest further and
further away. I will not vote for her if she slimes her way to the general
election.

I hope I get one because I am going to tape it to the toilet paper roll so that we can all have a good laugh. And to you Hillary fans, don't flame me, I'm not against Hillary just negative campaigning. LOL!

29. Thank you for posting. It's a microcosm of why Hillary is losing badly.
Edited on Mon Feb-25-08 08:38 AM by TexasObserver
She just doesn't get it. Her campaign runs on snide remarks, and that comes through. She can pretend to be positive and pretend to be for change, but the real Hillary comes through, and it's more of the same nastiness that has characterized her public attitudes for two decades. She's built her own political coffin, and now she'll be buried in it.

30. It seems to be Obama policy not to mention Hillary
I've gone to a couple of Obama organizing meetings now and, although it's never been explicitly said, official policy seems to be to not talk about Clinton. The only mention I've heard of Clinton at all was when someone described an appearance on a local radio station across from a Clinton supporter. It's all about Obama, not Clinton.

31. Not all of Obama's flyers have been positive
I don't think anyone is denying that Obama has put out negative flyers attacking Hillary.

Like this one:



Sorry I haven't found a complete scan of this flyer from the Obama campaign.

32. Hypocritical Witch. If Obama were as classless, he'd hop in front of the cameras crying about these.
