If I hear the line "under the bus" one more time, I'm going to jump in front of a moving one.

Give more to Obama, even if you think he's hiding huge numbers from June.
I think investing in the prevention of McSame FUBAR'n the whole planet is a wise choice.

I was about to give them some cash, but they're not going to run TV ads?
Sorry, but a website that is only read by us, the choir, is nothing.

So. Damn. Perfect.
This is effective in its simplicity, and using his own, short, statements against him, is the best value for time.
The feel-good approach to a lot of Obama's ads, doesn't really create the utter shock generated by hard hitting spots like this. Especially the ones centered around "entitlement" programs - which are generally ones appreciated and used by the very voters who cry foul at them.
Great job, DNC!

From the COLUMNA de AZTLAN:
"So, as he tried to win over the conservative base by shifting his immigration stance, he hurt himself with Latinos who have been stung by the toxic environment created by Republicans’ unbridled anger over immigration.
The candidate who is benefiting from McCain’s Latino dilemma is Obama"

Gallup:
Hispanic registered voters' support for Barack Obama for president remained consistent and strong in June, with Obama leading John McCain by 59% to 29% among this group.

So, if my employer tells me to rape someone, I wouldn't be held accountable?
Sounds weird to me.

People are always itching to smear Ralph no matter what he says or does. All because they still cling to the false notion that Nader got Bush elected.
First, your flat f**king wrong. Second, you are projecting your hatred and ignorance.
If you took even one moment to understand what Nader was talking about, is that he is pushing Barack to be more forceful. More in your face about reality. Less "old white politician". And Ralph hit the nail on the head.
Barack has been too ready to throw gays "under the bus" because of what? His religion!
He does play things safe, and by the old-school white guy playbook, when he thinks he needs to, as to not alienate blocks of voters. But the thing we all love about him is when he *doesnt* play by the old-white guy rules and shoves reality in your face.
This is what Nader is trying to get out of Barack. But you people would rather tear him to shreds than listen to what he's trying to say.
Oh well, your loss. Nader's been a champion for you whether you want it or not.

Actually, I think "cultist" is spot-on.
Nader has a very good point here, and as much as I like Barack, he's a backroom dealer just like the rest of em. And I'm not talking Rezko or other nonsense. But I am talking about same-sex marriage, NSA/FISA, and his other capitulations that have left a lot of us wanting.
Nader, for all his flaws, has just as much a right to run for POTUS as anyone else, and if you think he's the (boring and redundant) reason Gore didn't win, that's your problem.
btw: we're dealing with a 911-troof-mover here. This woman thinks the WTC7 was demolished from timed explosives. Nuff said.
