It simply AMAZES me that Obama haters are hanging onto "bittergate"

[Rob Gregory Browne]

as if it's really going to amount to anything. Let's face it, the Rev. Wright "scandal" was a LOT worse than this and Obama skated through it.

By this time next week, bittergate will be nothing but a bitter memory.

[GarbagemanLB]

1. Yep. Wright was much worse. Hillary and her camp are still furious it didn't sink Obama.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

15. He's still holding a lead in the polls, Hillary should call it a day

[aquart]

53. Before anyone else can actually VOTE, right?

Big on democratic process, ain't ya?

[Bigleaf]

2. Fuck. She has to run the table with massive wins. Ain't happening. It's over.

[aquart]

54. And yet, not till they actually vote.

Or are votes not important in Obama worship?

[DearAbby]

3. DU Belch

:blush:

[DearAbby]

4. We can play the Bitter game....

insert Bitter into popular Movie title...


ie:

Saving Private Bitter

Three men and a Bitter

Full metal Bitter

make some lemonade!

[Jawja]

27. The Sound of Bitter,

Gone with the Bitter, Guess Who's Coming to Bitter, On Bitter Pond, Bitter Wars, A Bitter Mind....


:rofl:

[DearAbby]

30. Outlaw Josie Bitter

[Cassandra]

44. The Bitter, Reloaded....

The Devil Wears Bitter, There Will be Bitter, A History of Bitter, Bitter/Victoria, The Incredible Lightness of Bitter,.... to be continued.

[Jawja]

49. The Bitter Hunter,

Fatal Bitter, Bitter Now, A Clockwork Bitter, The Fabulous Bitter Boys, Bitter Instinct, etc. etc. etc.

[AllentownJake]

5. Except here

Will it will be brought up every day till Election day in November every so often.

[thunder rising]

6. It was only bad until the truth came out. When people hear the entire quote they agree, 'nuf said!

[tabasco]

7. They got NUTHIN' ELSE!

They blindly support an inferior, corrupt candidate and they act like every piece of shit that Hillary flings is magic fairy dust from heaven that will turn everything around.

[Catherine Vincent]

8. It's the media that's harping on this. nt

[stillcool]

9. exposing themselves for what they are...

Hillary is not the only one that's going to get burned.

[FatDave]

23. You mean the PRO-OBAMA media?

SHOCKED I tell you!

[johnnydrama]

10. you know how you can tell Wright was much worse

Hillary remained silent.

Her all out blitz on this shows how nothing it really is.

[FatDave]

25. Absolutely right.

If it's really bad, not even commenting is the best thing you can do. It's how Obama handled the sniper business. But if you;re trying to make amountain out of a molehill, you gotta scream and moan until you're red in the face.

[myrna minx]

11. It is rather embarrassing, isn't it.

And to think this was the big "bombshell" that Hillary had in her quiver to be launched next week, but she had to release it now, to distract from the Colombia trade dealings that she had no answer for.

[Downtown Hound]

12. It's called desperation

If Barack gained a pound at this point they'd be saying he's too fat to be president.

[ashtoncusher]

13. We can't win with this media

I don't know how we are going to make it till November with a press corps whose coverage is 90% gossip, 5% Britnay, 5% issues.

[Zodiak]

47. Easy

Nobody watches or believes that bullshit. Look at their viewership numbers over the last few years and the numerous polls that show Americans do not trust the media. This isn't 2000 any more.

[smalll]

14. Yes, Wrightgate was worse than Bittergate.

But Wrightgate and Michellegate (never been proud, America is a mean country, the pro-separatist Princeton thesis) began to paint a picture of Obama. Bittergate completes that picture. It's not a pretty one.

He survived Wrightgate, so you might be right, he may survive Bittergate as well, for now. Even if he does though, the picture has been painted. The Repubs just need to pull it out in the general election campaign if Obama's the nominee, and it will defeat him.

Democrats have two ways out of this: Hillary could do well in the remaining contests, sway the superDs, and take the nom, OR enough superDs, Edwards delegates (there are a few) and uncommitteds (Michigan has 55, if they get seated) will abstain on the first ballot at the Convention, and we can reset this crazy campaign and pick a Gore or a Biden (or a any other plausible, experienced, ELECTABLE candidate we want.)

[John Q. Citizen]

22. Except that the supers want to win, which is why they are migrating to Obama.

Hillary could do well in the remaining primaries, and bush could throw his own ass in jail for war crimes. The oil companies could charge less for gas. But it ain't gonna happen.

I'm not sure if you heard Reid, Pelosi, Dean, Carter, or any of the Democratic Leadership's repeated statements, but this isn't going to the convention.

No matter how hard you wish.

Obama is the greatest candidate I've seen in a couple of generations. And he knows how to organize, which is one of the big reasons he's kicking Hillary's ass.

[Cali_Democrat]

16. Desperation really, not all that surprising.

[PoliticalAmazon]

17. PLEASE, let them continue. I hope they've already destributed 1million "bitter" stickers...

...Let's let this last bit of Hillary Roveiness finish her off.

[Life Long Dem]

18. MSM came down harder than they did with Dean's scream speech

In my opinion. And he is standing strong. Now they will say if you think this is bad wait till.. blah blah blah. I say MSM is MSM and they went as hard as they could and ever did.

[Tatiana]

19. Let them. This is working in our favor. Shhhhh! n/t

[cliffordu]

20. Yep, everytime they think Santa has given them a nice

free Hillary nomination they tear open the gift wrapping and find a massive disappointment lurking.


HEY HILLARY SUPPORTERS: MAYBE THE VOTERS AREN'T AS STUPID AS HILLARY THINKS THEY ARE.

Do ya think??

[Swamp Rat]

21. Bitter bitters

:D

[FatDave]

26. I don't know which is better.

The picture or the slogan.

[BzaDem]

24. For the primary.

For the general, Wright and Bittergate will be the subject of ads for months.

[tekisui]

28. Cue the next media feeding frenzy--Hillary's turn.

:evilgrin:

[tekisui]

29. The most common response I've heard to it, outside DU is:

"What's an Elitist?"

and then,

"I am bitter"

Hillary tried and failed with this one.

[knixphan]

37. wow

"What's an Elitist?" - that's perfect :)

[MonkeyFunk]

31. I dunno

I'd say your side is bringing it up fairly often.

[NDambi]

32. Tell that to Hilda...she's running a TV ad on it...

[Geek_Girl]

33. It's all they got

I honestly can't wait till the PA primaries I hope all this BS will end soon.

[bunnies]

34. They're not hanging on. Theyre CLINGING!

Times are tough for their candidate you know. :P

[SeaLyons]

35. This time next week....

bittergate will be expressed at the polls. We'll see if it's nothing but a bitter memory.

[Rob Gregory Browne]

40. Well, if it's expressed against Obama, then

it had better be expressed in a VERY BIG way, then be followed up by similar big expressions in the remaining primaries, because Hillary has no chance without huge wins from here on out.

[SeaLyons]

43. No chance??? Huge Wins???

We'll see. A win is a win. The supers will be looking at electability, and O can't win ANY swing states, he can't win the GE. I have no doubt Hillary's win in PA will be substantial.

[Rob Gregory Browne]

50. With all due respect, you're deluded if you think the supers

are looking at Hillary as electable. Look at her poll numbers, particularly her "dislike" numbers, which have skyrocketed since she started going negative. Look at her inability to raise funds in comparison to Obama. Look at her lack of coattails. The supers know very well that Hillary has lost this and have been flooding toward Obama. Even if she pulls off a win in PA, she has no chance of winning the nomination and certainly not the GE.

It's over. She just hasn't admitted it yet.

[aquart]

55. The Democrat will win.

Damn shame so many Obama supporters are so very anti-democratic.

[Rob Gregory Browne]

56. What's anti-democratic about

wanting someone who is suited for the office of President to be elected?

This campaign has taught us a lot about people and the levels to which they will stoop in order to clinch a primary, even when they have no statistical support, no popular support and no delegate support. The more Hillary refuses to accept reality, the more she reminds me of George Bush. Is that really the kind of person you want for President?

I, frankly, am TIRED after eight destructive years and would really like to see a change not just in policy, but in attitude. I don't see that coming from Clinton and her supporters.

[AllentownJake]

36. They take orders from the campaign

What they accuse us of being is actually projection. Till she drops it from her daily talking points. They won't

[rndmprsn]

38. THEY ARE BITTER...that HRC is such a bad candidate...

and can't beat down this neophyte

[symbolman]

39. Well, when you're starving and all you have

is a BALONEY Sandwich, you run with it :)

[rug]

41. His skates are getting worn.

[SaveAmerica]

MSNBC just played Hillary's commercial again. Just trying to keep the controversy alive

and ratings up.

[PragmatismRules]

42. "Obama's Latest Blunders Prove He Is a Change We Can't Believe In"

Read this:

[Forkboy]

45. They've overplayed every card they've been dealt.

I knew they would with this one too. Some of her supporters are nothing if not predictable.

[Arrowhead2k1]

46. Well they were clinging on to Reverend Wright up until "Bittergate" started.

I guess they'll go back to Reverend Wright soon.

[Mooney]

48. I'm not amazed at all.

Since Iowa, they've been desperately hoping that each gaffe will somehow change the game.

[McCamy Taylor]

51. When will Obama camp stop sending out email calling Hillary a liar over Bosnia?

That must have shaken up Obama tonight, when the hosts revealed that the Obama camp is the one that has kept Sniper-gate in the news, sending out emails.

[depakid]

52. "By this time next week, bittergate will be nothing but a bitter memory."

Not as long as people keep posting about it....
