Thanks, Barack, for probably costing us the White House, no matter WHO wins the nomination

[mtnsnake]

Here we go again. Democrats all but had this Presidential election wrapped up, no matter WHICH candidate of ours won the nod, until this novice of a candidate had to go and stick his foot in his mouth with his elitist bullshit, alienating Rural America like we've never alienatied them before. John McCain and all his fellow Repukes send you their deepest gratitude for all but insuring them of an easy victory next Fall. Just fucking great.

Way to go, Barack!!

[anonymous171]

1. lol. GOP thanks you.

[pinkpops]

2. NRA and extreme religious voters do not vote for Democrats

50. Contrary to popular belief....

...this is just nonsense.

People have different issues on why they vote the way they do.

Most people vote with their wallet.

Working class people, such as the ones in Pennsylvania, flock to the Democratic Party because they see it as the ones who are looking out for them economically. These are the same people who go hunting on Saturday and yes, go to church on Sunday.

Putting Democrats in a class by saying hunters and church-goers don't vote for Democrats is just shooting our own party in the foot (no pun intended).

[pinkpops]

68. I think the people of whom you speak are not the people of whom

I speak. There are people who vote against their economic interests - I don't have stats, but I don't think you do either. I think "flock" is a bit of a stretch. I live in Texas and the flocks here follow their preachers to the polls - and they don't vote Democratic. The mix is probably more favorable in PA, but still there are people who just won't vote for a Democrat, and the two most prevalent reasons are guns and abortion.

[rodeodance]

3. happens every time the Dem party sends up an elitist Candidate. What is Dean thinking!!

[Nedsdag]

42. rodeodance, you've gone off the deep end.

Which candidate has:

1. Two mansions?
2. A net worth of $109 million?
3. Vacations on Martha's Vineyard?

Guess who?

[Texas Hill Country]

63. ummm, lets get some facts straight

Bill -

1. Adopted son of a car salesman
2. Worked his way thru college
3. The poorest president to ever move into the white house - worth less than $700,000.
4. Bill, on average, gives 300 speeches a year and only charges for about 1/3 of them.


Hillary -

1. Daughter of a working class family
2. worked her way thru college
3. poorest first lady to move into the white house



Bill and Hillary

1. Their net worth is not $109 million. They made that over the course of 8 years.
2. They also paid more in taxes than peers.
3. Their net worth is about $30-40 million


Lets compare that to some of their peers - to me, it looks like he is on the low end of the totem pole.

1. John McCain - net worth of about $40-45 million
2. Mitt Romney - net worth of about $450 million
3. John Kerry - net worth of about $200 million
4. John Edwards - net worth of $40-60 million
5. John Rockefeller - about $81 million
6. Ted Kennedy - Estimates range from $45 to $165 million
7. Dubya - $20-25 million
8. George Sr. - $180-250 million (he actually says that he has lost track!!!!!)
9. Al Gore - estimated at greater than $100 million (looks like Bill is slippin if his VP is kickin his ass)

[MannyGoldstein]

4. Puzzling Evidence

Obama's going up in the last few daily polls, Clinton's going down.

Odd.

[mtnsnake]

8. Nothing puzzling about McCain beating either one now, thanks to Obama for blowing it

[MannyGoldstein]

17. I Knew That I Could Count On You For Evidence-Based Opinion

Thank you.

[mtnsnake]

21. Hang around me, Manny, pay attention, and you'll never go wrong

[cali]

53. ridiculous. you have the vapors- or something.

either hillary or barack stands an excellent chance of beating lame john. in november the economy will be even more catastrophic then it is now. people freaked about feeding their families and heating their homes will not vote for him. it's the economy, stupid.

[thunder rising]

5. Absolutely, WAY TO gooooooOOOOBAMA!!! Yeah!

[ossman]

6. GOD FORBID OUR PRESIDENT IS ELITE. I LIKE THE BUMFUCK POTUS BETTER!

[GarbagemanLB]

7. So much bitterness in one post. I guess Obama was right.

[mtnsnake]

10. Aren't you bitter that Obama probably cost us an election that we should have easily won?

If not, then you need to re-think your priorities pal

[Kahuna]

51. Wait a minute! Who sent a mole into the Obama camp to secretly

record him and then published his comments, creating a media firestorm??? Hillary knows that Obama is going to win the nomination. This doesn't change that. If you want to blame somebody, blame that turncoat hillary.

[Quixote1818]

11. LOL!

:thumbsup:

[Buzz Clik]

9. Whazzzup, snake! We missed your daily joke threads, man! Welcome back.

[mtnsnake]

28. Hows it goin, Buzz

[HowHasItComeToThis]

13. I AM RURAL AND NOT OFFENDED

GET A LIFE, HILLARY AND REPUBS

[gateley]

14. Dems had it wrapped up regardless of our nom?

According to many of HRC's supporters, NO WAY could Obama ever win the election -- been hearing that for quite some time.

Were you guys fibbing when you'd say that?

[beachmom]

15. Can't you think of your own original talking points. You're stealin' ours, friend.

Remember, it is HILLARY who is costing us the White House with her scorched earth kitchen sink campaign, and Obama who "can't win". Put it this way: you have YOUR talking points and I have MINE. Let's keep it that way.

Oh, and did you just endorse Obama for the Democratic nomination?

[TragedyandHope]

16. parrot much?

[rodeodance]

25. try Fl the swing state

[JimGinPA]

18. Two Comedy Threads With The Same Talking Point...

Woe are the democrats! Miss Hillary is losing! Now all the Jews, Hispanics and the 70% of the blue collar workers against the war are going to mvote for McSame.

Thanks for the chuckle drama queen.

:rofl:

[Yael]

33. Hey now -- who you calling a drama queen?

*cough*

[Lint Head]

19. I'm bitter. I'm pissed. I live in a rural area. I'm bitter and pissed

that the criminal is still occupying our precious White House and a contractor has been hired to oppress us in the streets of our own country. I'm bitter and pissed that the lying prick read a children's book while 3,000 Americans were incinerated. I'm bitter and pissed that the United States Supreme Cowards installed this traitor in the first place and the cowards in Congress don't have the patriotic testicles to impeach the bastard. I'm bitter and pissed and could make a list that was several miles long.
The high school bull shit that the Democratic candidates are flinging at each other pales in comparison to the horrors this nation is about to face if another fascist Re-Pubic-Rat is elected. :dem:

[Hugabear]

20. You have to give Hillary a lot of credit for completely trashing him

Great job. Make sure there's nothing left of Obama for the general election. Let McCain win, and wait four years to challenge him again.

[Milo_Bloom]

22. Pass me some of what you are smoking.

I want to be as out of touch with reality as you are.

The reality is that the only people who have been "alienated" are those who wouldn't be voting for a democratic candidate anyway.

[JBoy]

23. If only there was something Hillary could do to stop the media from talking about it!

No matter how much Hillary keeps trying to change the subject and talk about something other than the "bitter" comment, like all the positive things she's going to do, the media keep bringing up that darned bitter comment! You're right, Barack has spoiled everything.

[Yael]

35. Damn straight

She has done everything, EVERYTHING in her power to keep the media at bay on this.

It is spiraling out of control. :cry:

[DearAbby]

24. OMG!!!

Thanks for letting us know, like, we are so indebted to you and your precognition of events that will happen months from now. Were you born with ESP? What are the Lotto Numbers for Wednesday?

[ProSense]

26. Thanks Obama, for making Hillary look like the biggest sore loser on the planet.

Thanks Obama, for making Hillary utter that Bosnia lie (and others) several times.

Thanks Obama, for making Hillary run an ad supporting her and McCain's "out of touch" claim while a Dem group is running an ad to try to counter his spin.

Wait, I should be thanking Hillary for this.

Way to go, Hillary. You're still losing.

[grantcart]

27. okay I am reversing my longstanding policy of no ignores

what a waste of time

[mtnsnake]

31. wait wait! Please dont ignore be bro!!

:evilgrin:

[Yael]

29. Yes, because you were happy to vote for Obama until this came up

Snake, ya killin' me over here...

:rofl:

[mtnsnake]

34. Yael, please make sure your man doesn't go gaffing it up again like that. PLEASE

Email him, call him direct, write him by snail mail, do ANYTHING to get the message through to him that we can't be alienating the very people who swing all these presidential elections one way or the other. NO MORE GAFFES

[Yael]

36. Snake, for you , I broke my long standing rule about calling people on the cell after 10pm

He appreciated the advice and said to tell you "he's on it".

:thumbsup:

[mtnsnake]

37. If it was anyone but you, Yael, I might not believe it

:thumbsup:

[Yael]

38. Brother, you are the best.

:hug:

[Patchuli]

30. Oh Horsedoobers!

It's patently obvious to anyone but a complete idiot that the meaning of what Obama said was twisted by Hill and McInsane.

If you are middle class struggling like the rest of us, you ARE bitter. It's time that the fact was faced. Hill wants it to stay status-quo. The corporations just LOVVVVVVVVVE her.

[bigwillq]

32. The drama! The drama!

People are really coming up with some funny as shit tonight.

:rofl:

[Mz Pip]

39. Oh and Hillary

had absolutely nothing to do with any of this. She created a fucking ad that distorted the whole comment.

Way to go Hillary. But that's what she wanted anyway. If she can't be the nominee, whe's going to be damn sure a Democrat doesn't make it to the White House.

It's all about perceptions. You have yours. I have mine. Ms. Sniper Fire may have shot herself in the foot.

[Jed Dilligan]

40. Right

Show me a rural county that went to Kerry in 2004 and I'll worry about losing it.

[stillcool]

41. Wishing and hoping and begging and praying..

planning and scheming...Not This Time.

[Yael]

43. Then again, there is that...

:D

[Left coast liberal]

44. Huh? Get a clue

[saracat]

45. I agree. Way to go. Tell those patriotic folks in Penn that they deserved to die on 9-11 too

Screw Obama and his pastor.It seems that all America is racist and deserved to pay the price of 9-11 and suffer the consequences abad economy but Barack, Wright and a few special people. Well, lets see how far "God Damn America " takes him in Pennsylvania!

[razors edge]

46. Uh, riiiiight.

I am as backwards assed country fuck as they come and I'm not bothered with what he said, because its true for the most part.

[mtnsnake]

58. LOL

I am as backwards assed country fuck as they come and I'm not bothered with what he said

Now THAT is funny! :evilgrin:

[Jamastiene]

47. Yep, this small town American was surely offended, but

I am also a lifelong Democrat who has always voted a straight (D) ticket. Many Democrats in the rural areas do not feel that same party loyalty. Thanks to Obama and his big mouth, we can kiss the 2008 GE goodbye now.

[Kahuna]

48. Thank hillary and her mole Mayhew or whatever the hell her name is.

:)

[Perry Logan]

49. The Obama people are pretty irrational. They seem to think Obama's screw-up is Hillary's fault.

[shaniqua6392]

52. I thought everything bad that happens on earth was her fault.

This is his screw up and yet she is blamed. The media is talking about it every day and yet it is her fault. The have been talking about it all morning. Even Keith Olbermann is going to have bitter-gate on his show tonight. Of course she is going to play upon his mistake. That is politics.

[Perry Logan]

54. I never knew we had so many nutty people in our party.

[shaniqua6392]

55. United we stand and divided we fall.

I guess we just never learn. I am afraid we are going to have to watch McCain take the oath of office in January and that just makes me sick.

[Blarch]

56. Imagine this.

Imagine you are so stupid that you think a person claiming 'Americans are bitter for getting screwed over by their gov.' is gonna cost the dems the election.

How could someone be so stupid ?

[rasputin1952]

57. McCain won't win, we haven't even had GE tactics fall into

place yet.

The first time there is a confrontation between the D candidate and McCain, the world will see McCain for the buffonn he is...even hardcore R's will be hard pressed to vote for him. He is little more than an empty suit.

[Vinca]

59. Are you working for McCain? Sure sounds like it. nt

[mtnsnake]

60. Good question, Vinca, only your asking the wrong guy. You can ask Barack if you want, though

[Vinca]

62. Hillary is the one complimenting McCain and writing his campaign ads.

In fact, McCain has told his campaign to lay off Hillary and focus on Barack because he wants Hillary to pull it out and win. He says she'd be much easier to run against than Barack.

[JoFerret]

61. Independents and the so called "Reagan democrats"

are not likely to warm to BO once the GOP have had a field day calling him an unpatriotic, unamerican bigot.
Yeah thanks BO fans. Thanks big time.

[susankh4]

64. I'm not too worried....

Cuz once our Dream Team is on track, da Big Dawg will take a bite out of Mr. McCain's skivvies!

[Skwmom]

65. The Clintons are desperate to spin their trashing of Obama so that Hillary can run in 2012.

Give it up.

[sudopod]

66. BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

How dare he beat Hillary!

[SaveAmerica]

67. Yeah, Barack!! Thanks for having the most EVERYTHING in the primary results, how dare you get so

close to winning it ALL! Getting so many people fired up to go vote, many for the first time ever in their lives. HOW DARE YOU!!! AAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't even get me started on making Hillary start using the Republican's 'To Do' list for the General Election. Barack Obama, you and your winning fairly crap is making me sick.











Do I really need to post the sarcasm smilie?
