No wonder younger voters love him; he gets to be ironic while taking no responsibility for anything.

Thanks, that is great!

With all due respect sir or mam, I think you should stick to “Buy Danish” since you got nothing else to “sell.”

Well, actually the Danish have tremendous wisdom. Read this:

We in Denmark cannot figure out why you are even bothering to hold an election.

On one side, you have a woman who is a lawyer, married to a lawyer, and as well a lawyer who is married to a woman who is a lawyer.

On the other side, you have a true war hero married to a woman with a huge chest who owns a beer distributorship.

Is there a contest here?

Another Obama waffle. Are we talking about his flip on public financing? His waffle on gun control?Are we talking about his forking a piece of waffle in his mouth to avoid a tricky question? (Are we talking about his spiritual……

I want to make this clear — when people start hijacking threads and making themselves the focus of the blogpost, they’re being trolls. I’m going to take steps to keep this thread on topic.

I hope you don’t ban Indy Conservative because in my view all he did was raise some questions that were/are important to him. Sure, he may say things that are outrageous, but isn’t this board what it is all about; people expressing their views and others responding? Just because someone got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning and goes off on him doesn’t mean Indy Conservative hijacked the thread.

When it comes to banning people, I have other candidates that I deem would be more appropiate to ban. I’m talking about the Romney haters who are so vile that they take their hatred out on his family. Say what you want about Romney, but why the hatred directed at the kids?

I hope you have a more reasoned approach to this.

JMHO.

They thought Obama’s inexperience would not be an issue because Romney didn’t have much more than he did.

What? Barry’s resume is not even close to Mitt’s. Do you think Hillary is more experienced than Mitt?

Hillary and John McCain messed up their game plan.

The longer Hillary has remained standing, the more substance and grit and experience she has shown, and the more obvious Obama’s emptiness becomes

.

John McCain has nothing to do with his “game plan”. Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers were going to be problems for Barry even if his candidacy was assured at this point. It has little or nothing to do with Hillary’s brilliance as a candidate; she is an absolutely awful candidate and is benefiting from a backlash to Obama’s missteps (and Operation Chaos).

Rove dissects Obama, finds the waffle

In short, Obama has run as something he clearly is not, at least not so far. He wants people to believe that he can change the game, but in the three short years he has …

Say what you want about Rove and the Bush Administration, his analysis about BHO is dead on!. That is exactly why the messiah is so scary and dangerous. He has NEVER been faced with anything difficult nor has he been willing to take a stand on a tough issue up to this point. He has been invisible in the Senate and liked to vote “present”. The President doesn’t have the luxury of kicking the can down the street and being in that position is no time to “learn’ to lead. Look at his judgement in who he has associated with and that’s all you need to know to understand he should never be allowed to get anywhere near the White House.

Exactly. I’ve said all along that Obama’s campaign was brilliantly conceived but events got in the way of the plan. He was a campaign first and then a candidate. His people thought they could stun Hillary in Iowa and New Hampshire and then finish her on Super Tuesday before anyone had time to even ask who the hell is Barack Obama. Then they thought the GOP would nominate Mitt Romney and they would have an easy time beating him in November. They thought Jeremiah Wright would never become an issue because Romney could not talk about religion. They thought Obama’s inexperience would not be an issue because Romney didn’t have much more than he did.

Hillary and John McCain messed up their game plan.

The longer Hillary has remained standing, the more substance and grit and experience she has shown, and the more obvious Obama’s emptiness becomes. The more she appeals to the blue-collar Democrats, the more Obama is shown up as a candidate with limited appeal along racial and class lines, which is not a winning formula for a Democrat in November.

McCain wrapping up the GOP nomination also threw Obama’s plan badly. Jeremiah Wright became an issue, William Ayers became an issue, the success of the surge in Iraq helped McCain and hurt Obama, and McCain’s actual work on bipartisan legislation became an obvious contrast to Obama’s empty rhetoric. Obama is now reduced to making false and harsh “old-style politics” attacks on McCain, which shows how badly his plans have been screwed up by McCain. He has already had to throw the “new politics” thing out the window. But without the new politics, what does he have to recommend him as President of the United States? NOTHING.

Clinton also handily carried Bristol, home of freshman Democrat Rep. Patrick Murphy, who was Obama’s state chairman. Clinton carried Bucks County with almost 70% of the vote. The only place Obama carred in Bucks was Doylestown, home of a lot of aging hippies, loony leftists, and latte liberals. Murphy looks like a total idiot today. He’s a superdelegate and he is saying he is still going to vote for Obama. Hopefully this will help us get his sorry behind out of office in November.

I totally agree with Guest 1 that your comment were very much in line with Rove’s. Well done. I sent excerpts from both sections to my wife with the word “BINGO” added.
Keep up the great work!

To be fair, Barry has voted present a whole bunch of times. He showed a remarked leadership ability in demonstrating his physical presence during important votes.
……

In the small town and rural “bitter” precincts, she clobbered him. Mr. Obama’s state chair was Sen. Bob Casey, who hails from Lackawanna County in northeast Pennsylvania. She carried that county 74%-25%.

This is an interesting factoid.

Indeed, all the superdelegate support in the world is not going to help Barry win these voters in the general election.

Ed, while I was reading Rove’s comments I did not pause before continuing to yours. I was almost completely finished before I realized I was reading your comments at the end. Your comments and analogies are sometimes very Rove-esque.

Your post will now be placed at the front of every thread…
