Gotta love the Clinton/McCain strategy for beating Obama...
The Clinton/McCain strategy is clear:

Foreign: Vote for Obama and DIIIEEEEE!!!

Domestic: Obama’s pastor is an asshole, so don’t vote for Obama. And any vote for a black President is a vote for affirmative action; there’s obviously no other possible reason one would vote for a black man.


Given the stupid, bigoted, and mean population of this country, the strategy has a solid chance of working.

1. I don't think it does have a chance of working
The electorate (obviously) is at least as suspicious of Bush and McBush as they are of any black bogeyman -- even
far more so.

Definitely, Hillary's campaign has hurt Obama against McCain(and of course Obama's pastor video is being pushed by
them), but I don't think it'll work in the end.

2. So, the entire country is stupid and bigoted
because they don't believe in "god damn America?" I will try to break this to you gently. Most Democrats are quite proud of their country, even when it makes mistakes. This does notmake them stupid or bigoted or mean.

3. Obama doesn't believe in "god damn America" either..... his *PASTOR* does, not him......

Guilt by association is evil.

11. That's why we're going to elect a black man named Obama as President?
I have great faith in my country -- I think invariably we see in the outside world what we are afraid of in our
own hearts.

4. The Clinton camp is in control of the media now? And they forced the church to sell the tapes on its
website?

10. Didn't you get the memo?
The Hillary camp controls ALL the media, all over the planet now. As well, she also controls all sermon tapes from all religions on all websites. I don't think she controls Al Jazera yet, but we're working on it.

5. Gotta love this ignorant paranoid hateful "Clinton/McCain" bullshit on DU
Edited on Fri Mar-14-08 02:14 PM by Kurt_and_Hunter
Anyone who is such a delusional follower as to be comfortable discussing Hillary Clinton and John McCain interchangeably is capable of anything.

Kool-ade indeed.

8. Well they keep using the same talking points, it is hard to tell the difference.
But I wouldn't expect someone who supports a Clinton to be able to see this obivous point.

9. So. You'll be complaining about Hillary's casting McCain in a positive light, right?
I mean, saying that McCain is more qualified than Obama for any reason is pretty damned despicable. No self-respecting Dem would play that card. Right?

Let's hear it...
