The "fun part""?

From yesterday's Times of London:

Clinton’s camp has been circulating stories criticising the “cult” of Obama in the hope of portraying “Obamania” as a mass delusion. Media Matters, a watchdog organisation sympathetic to Clinton, compiled a report headlined, “Media figures call Obama supporters’ behaviour ‘creepy’, compare them to Hare Krishna and Charles Manson followers”.

It was forwarded by Sidney Blumenthal, a top Clinton adviser, to select reporters.

She does realize that she needs the votes of the people she's mocking in order to win in November, right? Right?

Apres elle, le deluge!

Wonderful Clinton GET-OUT-THE-VOTE slogan: vote for me, but you don't really count if you live in a caucus state, are African American, are educated, have complicated delegate rules, like to be inspired to better yourself... As McAuliffe pointed out on the plane between Iowa and NH - let's not forget who's going to get the nomination - we have the super-delegates!
My favorite quote from the Huckster: HRC's messageis falling flat, as the American electorat is not looking for someone who can fix the carburator - they want someone who can drive the car! Now Sen. CLinton wants to do to the country what she did to her campaign?!

Now did you read the story from Media Matters or are you too lazy to check it out? The story reports the MEDIA's obsession with the storyline that Obama's supporters are a "cult." You're as bad as the goddamned media.
