I thank God that David Axelrod didn't work for Hillary

[BluegrassDem]

How about giving up some props for the Obama team? They are tactical geniuses!! I have no doubt they are going out outwit, outlast, and just plain overwhelm McCain. Obama has the best political team I've seen in the past 20 years. I'm so glad they're working for the 'good' side. ;)

1. ^5

:thumbsup: to the Obama Team.

12. Hillary has more class than to use the race card playing, smearing, liar Axelrod

[Spider Jerusalem]

13. If she'd had Axelrod instead of Mark Penn she might've won.

And she has no class at all; if she did she'd have conceded already.

[earthlover]

15. you have made the point that Obama is black....anything more to say?

[SemiCharmedQuark]

24. Yes, it's a good thing she picked a class act like Mark Penn.

[Straight Shooter]

27. Don't forget Obama campaign comm. director Robert Gibbs , the Dem Destroyer.

"Dean morphs into Osama." Nothing ugly about that, nope, not at all. Jus' politics, yep, that's right. Because it isn't how you play the game, it's whether you win or lose.

I bet Hillary still continues to support and promote epilepsy research organizations to help Axelrod's daughter.

[Cheap_Trick]

2. They already done the impossible

and that makes them mighty. Let's do our part to make it a twofer.

[NotThisTime]

3. Big props!!! To the winning-est political team on merit!

[Skidmore]

4. To the Davids....

Axelrod & Plouffe. And don't forget Gibbs, who has been ever gracious to that smarmy Scarborough.

And to all of the local volunteers. I really remember a young lady who came down to our village from Chicago to provide childcare at the caucuses so people could participate. She was smart and enthusiastic. Our local organizer was great! Only an e-mail or phone call away. These people are always responsive.

5. It was the "google gang" of young

net savvy entrepreneurs like the guy who started Facebook who really made this possible beyond Axelrod - and of course, Obama himself.

[BklynChick]

6. like someone said here, they're playing chess, baby. everyone else is playing checkers.

[StatGirl]

18. I hope they can pivot and upgrade, then

Because the Republicans think this is a knife fight.

[liberalla]

29. I am looking forward to seeing how they handle the Repug

attack machine. They must have a plan and I look forward to seeing it in action.

[futureliveshere]

7. To the best political team in America... and this is the TRUTH unlike CNN..n/t

[The_Casual_Observer]

8. Apparently Obama was Axelrod's choice for the part of Presidential

Candidate, it wasn't the other way around.

[LisaM]

11. That I readily believe

I'm not exactly comfortable with David Axelrod being involved with the DNC.

[vaberella]

9. the Obama Team will live in History along with our future President

Dear God that team was masterful. Geniuses!!

[Mimosa]

10. David Axelrod behaves like a gentleman, not....

...like Wolfson or McAwful. LOL

Obama's team are great people, role models for the rest of us. I particularly LOVE Caroline Kennedy!

Thank you all who are on Obama's team. We love you and admire you.

[madrchsod]

14. bill wanted him in 92 but david wanted to stay in chicago

david did videos for hillary when she ran for the senate...

[underpants]

16. How in the HELL are you going to get a black guy a nomination???

run an almost perfect campaign

they went and found every single delegate that they could AND they built and effectively used a volunteer base unlike anyone ever has. They got 10% contributions from supporters--no one has ever come CLOSE to 10% before. AND they never went negative.

[SemiCharmedQuark]

20. I'm shy as anything, but I manned the phones.

They came to my house three times to get me to volunteer.

[Honeycombe8]

31. My bigot friends are STILL stunned. They would grin every time I said Obama could win.

"Silly girl," I'm sure they thought. I'm white, over 50, career woman. I didn't realize how bigoted my friends were. Until now. They are s-t-u-n-n-e-d that Obama won.

But then, they didn't realize give Obama the time of day. They just knew him as a darkish face. You sort of have to experience him to realize how extraordinary he is, and what a great natural leader he is.

Ba-da-bing! He won!

[Triana]

17. Yeppers. Axelrod and Plouffe and all of them together are amazing...

..I've been admiring that campaign for a couple of months now. They ran circles around Hillary. I hope they do the same with Grandpa McSame.

[mopinko]

19. i wonder what she did to lose the chicago contingent.

it has got to go deeper than just the hometown guy.

they are the best in the business.
:toast: to the good guys.

john mcsame, you are about to be a grease spot on the road to history.

[MarjorieG]

21. Axelrod was only going to work for Obama-or no one. Many believers out there.

[aaaaaa5a]

22. REC!

Good point!

David Axelrod is the power behind the throne! He has done a fantastic job.

[Freida5]

23. I thank God too. He is such a thug.

[SemiCharmedQuark]

25. Again, you say this with Hillary having had Mark Penn on her side?

[Bensthename]

26. You are right. Watching McCain lately, his best strategy is to copy Obama..

And doing so McCain has been falling on his face.

Yup, Axelrod and crew have been great for obama.

[moondust]

28. Marvelous job! n/t

[Honeycombe8]

30. The Obama team is why Obama won! Mark of a great leader: Pick the best team.nt

[NC_Nurse]

32. The campaign was AWESOME! Props to Axelrod and the whole team.

I worked for the 1992 clinton campaign and again this year for Obama. This campaign was SO much more
organized and focused - it was night and day. They did an excellent job.

[MrScorpio]

33. When I hear his name, I think of this guy:

But I'm a DJ!
