So let me make sure I'm clear on this. No one is bitter and you better not say they are. |

Those Americans seeing their jobs go overseas are not bitter? The Americans seeing the towns they grew up and had plan on living in all their lives dying on the vine are not bitter? The Americans living on minimun wage with about zero chance of making better wages and no chance at health insurance are not bitter? Those regular blue collar middle Americans who complain about having to punch 1 for english, have to call India for repairs and are looking forward to paying more for food and $4.00 for gas are not bitter? Those Americans that went to the border and attempted to errect a fence because our government can't control the borders weren't and are not bitter? Those Americans that send their kids to failing schools everyday and see no progress everyday no matter how much in taxes they pay or how involved they become are not bitter? No American living in a community where foreclosures are high and seeing their property values plummet and crime rise while Bearn Sterns gets a bail out is bitter? No American watching billions being stolen in a failed effort to rebuild Iraq while American streets and bridges are crumbling is bitter?
Anyone who points out that they may be bitter because of all the above and more, is out of touch? No one in America is clinging to their gun for protection against out of control crime, praying to God that things will get better in their life and hoping against all hope that whom ever they vote for will make America a better place? Its all in Obama's mind.

1. No one is bitter. So vote for Clinton. |
|
You can trust her. And you won't feel the need to only trust the wedge issues, or voting on something you know will be promised opposed to Clinton's promises, in which she says you can trust your promises from her.

7. Sorry, I forgot to turn on the sarcasm. My point was however, is the claim by her camp that Obama |
|
is unelectable for his comments and everyone should ignore that the GOP is well prepared to bring all the crap from the 90s out about her.

2. As a frequent (i.e. compulsive) Hillary defender, I have to say this "bitter" thing is ridiculous. |

Obama simply said something that makes people uncomfortable. If this is all they have against Obama, they have nothing.

5. 99 percent of the crap the MSM has been focusing on about Bill, Hillary and Obama has been |
|
ridiculous. While any McCain says, does or switches positions on gets a pass.

8. Line forms to the right. |
|
Just behind McCain.
Seriously, how bitter do you think that old fucker is going to be when he loses this fall?
"The campaign to become President is sort of like American Idol."
No, it's not.
It's like Survivor, and guess who's going to get voted off the island in November?
LoL

9. It's all sunshine and smiles in small town America, and folks never |
|
cast their votes against their own economic best interests. It never happens - ever. Small towns are not filled with Republicans that vote for gun-rights before they vote for economic empowerment. Small towns are not filled with Republicans that vote to disallow gay people from having basic rights or impose restrictions upon what a woman can do with her own body before their own economic empowerment. There is nothing to see here - move along and keep it orderly. Thankfully, we have Hillary here to point these obvious truths out to us.
How dare Obama start a conversation about voting patterns among people that have been economically disenfranchised. How dare he talk about why people put economic empowerment below voting for other issues - if this conversation is allowed to go on, Democrats might pick-up a few more votes in small town America. Thankfully, we have Hillary to stop that from happening.

14. Actually, it has nothing to do with being bitter |
|
It has to do with claiming that people only go to church because they are bitter.
