LOL at Olberman "If you enjoy any of his speeches you heard most of them tonight."

 

[bigbottom]

Even though I'll probably vote for McCain in the general, I think I'm going to vote in the Democratic primary and vote for Obama. All the competitive races in Travis County are on that side, and he's a heck of a lot more appealing than Hillary.

I'm trying to broker a deal with my Republican wife. If she votes for Obama in the primary, I'll vote for McCain in the general. She's suspicious.

never would have guessed you'd have a conservative wife. does she know you're a hawasianjew?

Thus far, I've been able to keep it under wraps. She's not really conservative. She's a one issue Republican (lower taxes). She's more greedy than conservative.

Yeah, on CNN they said he tried to combine his policy speeches and his inspirational speeches and what he ended up with was a speech that was just too long.

No sex involved?

I'm trying to work the whole sex for the thirty consecutive days thing. If that fails, I'll attempt to "back door" the sex into the vote trading negotiations.

Like the margins are going to go up. Obama is winning everywhere, but is really running it up in a few large population centers that are just starting to come in. They also made a point to show that he was winning counties that were supposed to be Clinton's core voters... essentially the Ohio demographics.

You saw that article on cnn also? I think I need to go find Jesus.

POTY

 

[whoknew]

Wow. Chris Matthews just stuck it to some Congressman from Texas who is a big Obama supporter.

 

[Eviloutsider]

Chris Matthews just crushed some Senator from Texas who couldn;t list one accomplishment os Obamas. Funny and sad.

 

[tommyGunZ]

wow - this guy from Texas is embarrassing himself.

 

[tommyGunZ]

and that's why Chris Matthews is the best political analyst/host of our time. If you come on his show with some bull####, he'll embarrass you.

Great stuff, even if it wasn't good for my guy.

 

[NorvilleBarnes]

Wow. Chris Matthews just stuck it to some Congressman from Texas who is a big Obama supporter.

That was brutal.

 

[bentley]

Wow. Chris Matthews just stuck it to some Congressman from Texas who is a big Obama supporter.

Who was it?

 

[Eviloutsider]

I was embarrassed for this guy. I bet he got really mad as sson as he was off for someone not prepping him better.

 

[whoknew]

I don't remember. Sorry.

 

[Jethro Q. Walrustitty]

Did Obama get a little choked up talking about the kid from Green Bay who died in Iraq? If so, thats a plus in the minds of many apparently.

Plagiarizing Hillary now.

Tweety is hardly the best anything. Plenty of crap goes right on by on his show. He just doesn't need this guy after this so he goes after him. Get back to me when he does this to a real player he may want back.

 

[Homer J Simpson]

Really not feeling good about tonight.Have I mentioned that yet?

Whatever, dude. You're an idiot.

 

[Jethro Q. Walrustitty]

I like McCain, but I admit I haven't seen a lot of his speeches over the years. Is he really that robotic? It's as if he's speaking for a few minutes, and then [WAVE HANDS OUTWARD] appears on the teleprompter. At one point he did the downward double fist-pump which reminded me of the Lollipop Guild dance. I'm not trying to disparage the dude, but ugh.

P.S. I would be all over Amy Holmes. SMOKING

 

[Homer J Simpson]

The latest speech in a nutshell

You guys can keep chirping that all day...it hasn't helped Hillary and it won't help McCain.

 

[ericttspikes]

This seems like one of his longer speeches.

He seems to be rambling.

Guess he's milking the free air time.

He Barack blocked Hillary. Nicely played.

Hillary camp is saying the negative ads did have an impact.

Have to love at this point she is down almost 150,000 votes. In a state where she was leading just a week + ago.

 

[urbanhack]

I like McCain,

disagree

P.S. I would be all over Amy Holmes. SMOKING

agree!

 

[fasteddie_21]

McCain just seems phoney to me and the gf. Just too artificial. His fake smiles do him a disservice.

And listening to Obama's speech tonight, I just don't see how he doesn't roll both in Texas, but also in the general election. McCain, imo, has little chance against him. I can NOT wait for those debates!

I don't think owns means what you think it does.

Well she did bring out the "Yes We Will!" tonight.

I have to third that motion. Man.

 

[Jethro Q. Walrustitty]

Interesting point: Obama is beating Clinton by as much as McCain is beating Huckabee. Granted, Ron Paul has 4% or so, but still....

Well, there is an arguement to be made. Here is the exit polling from Wisconsin. While Obama had a decided edge in people who made a decision in the last month, those who made a decision in the last day were almost even.

When did you finally decide for whom to vote in the presidential primary?Category	% Total	Clinton	Obama	UninstructedJust today	12	48	51	-In the last three days	9	44	56	-Sometime last week	10	32	68	-In the last month	25	30	69	0Before that	44	48	50	0

And BTW how does someone who has started to pull this kind of crap have the nerve to talk about plagarizing? Her entire campaign has become triangulation aimed at Obama. A lot like him but just a little different. What a joke.

She's so proud of herself when she pulls that one out. So clever.

I don't see a single category she won. Although today was her best day she still lost that. Or am I misreading this thing? Perhaps my sarcasm detection is slightly off?

Was she also "Fired up, ready to go"?I think she'll wait a week and say Obama stole all her slogans.

 

[Homer J Simpson]

Is Obama giving up on Ohio? Speaking in Texas and Clinton in Ohio, it seems to me that he's giving up on ohio...

Of course. Is Ohio supposed to be important or something?

Just something to ponder about the Ohio ballot:

Dropout Giuliani still on ballot -- but spelled wrongTuesday, February 19, 2008 8:02 PMBy Barbara CarmenThe Columbus DispatchThe former mayor of New York City had wanted to spell his name “p-r-e-s-i-d-e-n-t,” but it won't even be spelled “Giuliani” on Franklin County's March 4 ballot.Someone at the Board of Elections noticed that Rudy Giuliani's last name is misspelled as “ Guiliani” on 290,000 paper ballots ordered two weeks ago. Reprinting them would have cost $81,200.“Since he pulled out of the election in time so that his votes won't be counted anyway, the Secretary of State told us basically, ‘No harm, no foul,'” said Ben Piscitelli, a spokesman for the Board of Elections.The board voted today not to spend the money for the corrections. Giuliani quit the national race Jan. 30, in time for a state deadline that pulled him out of the Ohio contest but too late to be pulled off the final ballot.

You should see and hear the way my last name gets butchered 'round these parts. Columbus and Cincy are extremely ungood at the Italian thing.Plus, nary a decent slice of pizza to be found in either place.

 

[urbanhack]

Wow. Dems outvoted the Repubs by 2-1 in Wisco tonight.

 

[My Hope Street Alias]

I just noticed that Al Green is one of Obama's superdelegates from Texas. Do you think he'll sing at one of the Inaugural Balls?

 

[Clayton Gray]

Really not feeling good about tonight.Have I mentioned that yet?

Whatever, dude. You're an idiot.

:whew:

 

[NCCommish]

Wow. Dems outvoted the Repubs by 2-1 in Wisco tonight.

Well at this point those numbers are expected. Lots of energy still in the Dem primaries the GOP side is over.

 

[Kilgore Trout]

I don't see a single category she won. Although today was her best day she still lost that. Or am I misreading this thing? Perhaps my sarcasm detection is slightly off?

Yeah, my bad. But she did do better amongst those that decided in the last few days than those who decided earlier, suggesting that either the negative attacks, the plagiarism angle, or Michelle Obama's gaff may have had an effect.

 

[skol asylum]

Sorry if already posted, but this further take from the Clinton campaign on the so called "plagerism" charges is worth the read.

Man she really boils my blood.

 

[timschochet]

Obama's speech tonight touched on his proposal to spend money on alternative energy sources: he mentioned wind, solar, bio-degradable fuels.

But there was one energy source he never mentions, and that is nuclear energy. One of the decisive reasons I am for McCain over Obama is the refusal by the "green" elements in this country to consider nuclear energy as a viable alternative energy source even though (1) we are much farther developed in the science of this than the others (2) as France has shown, it is safer and cheaper than nearly anything else. And if we ever develop the secret of nuclear fusion, all of our energy concerns will be forever eliminated, or so I understand (I'm no expert on this.)

It seems to me that the progressives in this country, so forward thinking in many ways, are backwards thinking when it comes to this issue. They think about Three Mile Island, and Chernobyl, the China Syndrome, etc. But all that was decades ago, apparently new technology makes this safer. Shouldn't we at least explore it? Seems to me we should, and its vital.
