Death Knell

Obama is now unelectable; let's help nominate him.
It's Judgment Day


Hugh Hewitt  documents the "mainstream Chicago couple" Ayers and Dohrn, and offers compelling audio.  His judgment:

Barack Obama seems like a very nice guy with a good heart and a wonderful family.  He is obviously bright and extremely well spoken.  He's a down-the-line leftist with the most left-leaning voting record in the Senate from 2005-2006.

But of even more concern than his ideas is the fact that his judgment about people and ideas is terribly flawed.



For those who like their facts distilled, and are not so much concerned with appearances, Ann Coulter has enough Weathermen quotes to scare the crap out of anybody not living in Berkeley or Olympia. Her judgment:

If he had only said he bombed the building in Oklahoma City to protest American "imperialism," McVeigh, too, could be teaching at Northwestern University, sitting on a board with and holding fundraisers for presidential candidate B. Hussein Obama.

My judgment is:  Obama's chances of becoming president are nil. It's time to get him the nomination.

I'm concerned about how early the republicans are jumping on this stuff. I agree he is unelectable, but it seems like the republicans are trying to make the superdelegates nervous and jump to hillary.

While that may have the effect of alienating all of the oabama voters, I'm afraid that plan may backfire. The clintons have proven that they are ruthless campaigners.

I would much rather see obama get the nomination and then get all this stuff out there.

As TUA said on a similar thread at Sondra's place, the most dangerous place to be is between a Clinton and its ambition.

Were I Bro Jughaid, I'd be concerned about an 'accident.' Of course, nothing like that has happened in D.C. since the initial Clinton infestation . . . no sleaze, nothing unethical or disgusting, no strange disapearances or deaths, no inaccurate reporting, no concealed histories.

He's got the nomination, unless they steal it from him, thus the delightful dilemma. He's unelectable, and if she gets the nomination, she's unelectable. If five percent of the black vote defects, or stays home, the D's are toast.

"She's unelectable"

Don't forget who she'll be running against.

I'm voting for Hillary in NC. The longer this goes on and the closer the race, the better. Spend that money, describe in as many words as you like why your opponent is unfit and alienate the rabid supports of the eventual loser. Floor Fight!

And yesterday, Tom Hayden, the spiritual-less mentor of Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, opened a bucket of used cat liter in The Nation and listed chapter and verse on how Hillary was the perfect little leftist.

Poor Tom: it seems that his current wife is suffering from a bad case of Hillary Derangement Syndrome. There is a refreshing amount of that going around and it seems more virulent than BDS.

I don't think our views differ at all. I'm concerned about the views of the republican leadership.

I'm afraid that they are forcing this issue and it could backfire and actually give hillary the nomination.

They are supporting, along with hannity and others in the conservative media, the narrative that if you count Florida hillary has exceeded obama in the popular vote.

Looking at the exit polls of the penn primary, alot of gun owners supported hillary. That's something I would have never believed.

I just hope they don't scare the super delegates so bad on obama's electability that clinton walks away with it.

I'm fairly certain mccain can beat obama. I'm not so certain about hillary. I would be more comfortable if he got the nomination, then we started hammering him on this stuff.

I pretty much view the "the republican leadership." as enemy. Godawful stupid, at best. This current lot have no balls, and no vision. Indiana's Governor is a case in point.

Oh, I agree on the "republican leadership." Unfortunately the "democratic leadership" see them as valid and could be influenced by their tactics.

Left wing bomber (Ayers) gets teaching position.

Ring wing bomber (McVeigh) gets the needle.

"Sounds fair to me."

Barack Obama

Bambi doesn't have the nomination yet and if Hillzilla has her way, he never will. The woman is ruthless and evil and will do anything, absolutely anything, to get the nomination. If I were Bambi, I'd stay out of the crone's way entirely. Develop a bad case of tennis elbow or something and drop out of the race NOW. Otherwise, his health will be endangered. Too many people revert to room temperature around the evil Clintons.

wrong!! obama will win because the mass loves populism and TVs support him
and he is not a "nice guy". that's just a mask, he is an opportinist who can say he'd invade Pakistan one day and he won't stay in Irak other day. He is perverse and he knows perfectly what he wants to.
he's gonna be the worst president ever

The only hope for a conservative revival is if Hillary or Obama wins the presidency. In that instance conservatives could mount a fierce opposition as Republicans and simultaneously fight for control of the Republican Party.

A McCain win would mean that the Republican Party would once again be totally in the hands of country club types who despise conservatives. What would conservatives do? Form a third party? In our two party system conservatives would be permanently marginalized if they went the third party route.

I agree with the Real King of France: Obama cannot win the general, Clinton can.

Conservatives can't take a walk on McCain for at least four words: Supreme Court nominees. Iraq.
