Obama would be a disaster down ticket if he wins the nomination. His "bitter" comments are far more damaging down ticket than pastorgate. The "bitter" comments came from his mouth, not Wright's.

1. Ahhh...another post directed toward the "stuck on stupid" crowd.

Obama seems to have been an asset to the other Dem candidates he's campaigned for. I think I'll work with his track record and not one commercial that panders to ignorance.

2. He was an asset in 2005 and 2006

When did he make his "bitter" remark? April of 2007 or 2005 and 2006? Pastorgate and "bitter" have made him toxic down ticket. He does deserve credit for the work he did in the past when he had long coattails, though. :thumbsup:

3. I know you like to predict doom and gloom from the Wright thing...

...but let's wait until we see who wins this thing and decide if it's really an issue.

I certainly don't believe it has any substance, and I doubt that it will cause the sky to fall as you frequently assert.

4. The "bitter" comments are going to be far more harmful than Wright down ticket

Altimore defeated Hart 52-48 in 2006. This could tip the balance. The problem candidates down ticket would face is they would either have to denounce the Democratic nominee or stay silent, which would leave them open to be smeared as silently agreeing with Obama/Wright .

5. I just don't see it, but you are, of course, entitled to your opinion.

It would be interesting, purely to see if you're capable, to see one...just one..."that's not a big deal" post about Obama or a "gee, she did screw that one up" about Clinton.

It's just a personal opinion, but it's good to keep a sense of perspective. I've posted when I disagreed with Obama and I've ridiculed a few of the sillier anti-Clinton posts. Posting nothing but attacks against one candidate smacks of partisanship trumping truth.

6. She almost threw away PA with snipergate

That was idiotic. I posted a list of things she has done wrong in Elrond Hubbard's thread asking Clinton supporters to name two. Search for his thread.

7. Fair enough. I'll look.

That aside, we're just going to have to agree to disagree on this. I guess we'll all find out when this damn primary is over.

10. or

we will find out in November

8. I give Hillary the same chance of coming back that I give the Suns...

zero. Appreciate the determinism, though. But when your team (Clinton) plays dirty at the end to take out the opposition with no real shot to catch up in score, a loss or a win would still bring nothing but disgrace.

The Clintons will soon feel a return of their bad karma.

9. Who cares?

Just get the fuck over it, Obama is our candidate. Support him or don't it's your choice.
