TD full of BS
Josh, please pull <a href="http://talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/184931.php">TD's post </a> off your font page. On the front page of TPM, JMM posted TD's post. I find TD's post disingenuous at best
I got really emotional about it before I realized that I would vote McCain and a straight top to bottom GOP lineup if Hillary isn't the nominee and leave the party if Florida isn't counted.
This is not from a Democrat. This writer either has no convictions or is a GOP shill. Elections have rules, Michigan and Florida did not follow them, get over it. The elephant in the room is what will happen to the super delegates from Michigan and Florida? Those who sold us out? (I'm from Michigan).
Its not about winning anymore. Its about whether the Democratic party and its anti democracy is worth defending or if the most liberal GOP presidential candidate in decade is a better use of my vote.It is completly about winning, has DT not been paying attention for the last seven years? McCain is not liberal, that may be a matter of opinion. The top to bottom crap is not. The GOP has institutionalized corruption, they need to be taken out. We need two strong parties, today's GOP is not one of them, that is what is ailing the country. My old district is as red sa can be but <a href="http://www.house.gov/ehlers/">Vern Ehler</a> is a man of integrity illustrative of what the GOP needs more of to rebuild itself; the exception rather than the rule.
Obama has done the following
1) Sat idly by as Jessy Jackson Jr called Hillary a racist and Wright likened what Bill Clinton did to Monica to how he treated Black people.
Clinton and McCain have done no worse?
2) Acted to avoid democracy both in caucuses and in Florida and Michigan
Uh, no. He has followed the party rules. Why were Hillary and Kucinich the only names on the ballot in Michigan?
3) Threatened the party both in terms of his voters not voting and in terms of his supporters often threatened rioting in Colorado if the rules are followed where super delegates vote as they please or with the majority vote not as the pledged delegates which are mostly determined by caucuses.
Hillary has done the same, as well as attempting to poach Obama's pledged delegates.
4) Called anyone a racist who challenged his 2 years on the national scene as not being enough experience for commander in chief
Please provide citation.
5) Minimized the connections with Rezko while refusing to answer questions about what appears to be a $600,000 bribe that likely comes directly from a Saddam loyalist.
We've heard more than enough about the Clinton connections throughout the 90's. What about McCain's connection to Keating or Iseman. <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/02/21/AR2008022101131_pf.html">McCain's campaign is being run by Charlie Black.</a>. Please provide citation with regards to $600,000 fabricated bribe that the MSM is completely ignoring.
6) Claimed that his Independent and GOP voters are better than Hillary's Democrats.
Because they are; Democrates (unlike DT) will vote for whoever obtains the nomination. Obama wants to make the Democratic party a big tent party.
In a revolution words don't matter. Actions matter. I am at peace with my voting actions come general election.
Both matter, words lead to action. DT go shill for McCain on some right wing blog.
