    CNN online did the same thing — just switched over.

  2. when r u guys switching the photo on the comments section

  3. Ordinary people can do extraordinary things.

  4. he’s back to his old speech I think…

    sort of mixing it up though, no?

  5. cassandra m

    Oh no, he just said “Straight Talk” — more plagiarism accusations coming tomorrow!

  6. Yup, he’s using some of the boiler plate but I love to hear it.

  7. yeah i think so

    he is all about personal responsibility, that’s a republican thing i think

    Good Ghandi line, j, and true too.

    Funny though, I’ve seen that as a sig for a few wingnutters out there…..victims of the people keeping The Man down. 😉

  9. Yes, Democrats aren’t responsible… I heard Rush say it.

  10. Von Cracker

    Can’t believe he plagiarized ‘Si Se Puede’?!?

    😉

  11. I just heard him use THE and he didn’t credit anyone for it!

  12. I saw that somewhere recently. It is used a lot in the Open-source community to describe the M$ treatment of Linux and the like.

    I read Dave Burris’ post earlier and saw fear. I was reminded of the Ghandi quote and posted it.

  13. he’s going centrist on me…but…he just realled it back in.

    anyone hearing those guys coming over the mike?

  14. ok, he is giving specific income numbers. isn’t that a better way to get votes without targeting specific races?

    I’m guessing they have the numbers on who those numbers reach right

  15. I heard the voices on CNN. Open Mic. I wish I heard it better… I am certain that I heard the word “Jews.” I wish I was kidding.

  16. once again, obama is outpacing the republicans in total votes

  17. I can’t help but notice that Obama is the only one again whose whole speech is televised.

    I’m not complaining, I’m just noticing.

  18. lg, he was saying “did you” which sounds like “jew” — an old woody allen joke

  19. I’m telling u all right now, If I get burned by this guy when he becomes president, I’m going to be a pissed mother fucker for falling for his kool aid.

    I buy what he is selling man…but I still have to remember that he is a politician

  20. Early childhood education is the silver bullet! Go Barack!

  21. I agree, don. I do hope he’s for real.

  22. Nemski. That could very well be… It was hard to discern anything.

  23. jason330

    Oh the fear is spreading over on the wingnut multitude like the flu.

  24. I’m thinking back to McCain’s speech 30 mins ago… Obama is going to kick his ass.

  25. jason330

    DV –

    I felt burned by Bill’s first term. I’m an optimist about Obama – but what else would I be as an Obama supporter?

  26. seriously, what the fuck, why is he making sense? all I want is flowery words, not specifics

  27. lg, didn’t hear anything like that. sounded like it was 2 men talking about a trip. I thought I heard someone say 8 hours or something to that effect

  28. 3/4 OH, RI, TX, VT

    Umm . . . four wins for Obama.

  29. I saved it on the record button and will go back to it when he is done..

  30. i need some bumper stickers, anyone got any extras?

  31. jason330

    3 wins. OH is going to be tough.

  32. oh shit, he is doing what I feel they should always do, take the arrows out of the quill before the REP’s can use them.

    he really does have good people

  33. get ribbons daveski, they show your patriotism and that you support the troops and the war!

  34. jason330

    Maybe Obama should flub a speech to take the “he is a great speaker” card away from CLinton.

  35. jason, who would have though he even had a chance in Texas? White union men will vote for a black man before voting for a woman.

  36. ok, back to my point earlier. He sounds like a guy that is saying all the right things to everyone…

    damn man…I’m not getting sucked in! I’m going to do my best to be a Dave Burris and take all he says out of Context!

  37. I love the “boil all the hope out of him” line. Whoo Hoo!

  38. Nemski – I’m not sure that is right. They will vote for a black man before they will vote for that woman.

  39. ok, dude on the cell phone in the background needs to get off the fucking thing…GHETTO

  40. jason330

    Nemski – He has been behind everywhere until he campaigns there. So he could close it out.

  41. who is for anti-hope other than Dave Burris?

  42. I think it’s more general than that lg, I think it is any woman. look at the women in politics. Is hillary any different then Boxer or Pelosi?

  43. cassandra m

    I could not decide in this race for the longest time, but what I really like about watching Obama run his campaign is that he just hunkered down and worked at it. Even with all of the “inevitability”, he worked what he needed to and really has been pulling together a real governing coalition — not just a 50 1 coalition. He won’t be able to deliver on everything he says, but if his campaign is any indication, he will work damn hard at real governing and trying to do something.

    And after the last 7 years, that just might be more than enough.

  44. “The status quo serves many powerful people”

    very subtle!

  45. Yeah, but you could have done the same thing with a “black candidate” until Obama. Obama isn’t running as a black man. Hillary IS running as a woman.

  46. cas, i think it goes back to him having the right people. His organization is first class.

  47. boy, chris matthews is probably pretty pissed right now that he is not on tv

  48. LG, I think she started running as a woman, but then she changed over time and started running as the experienced candidate

  49. cassandra m

    His organization is first class — which is a reflection of the man setting the direction. These guys have not gotten caught up in the trivial BS that the Clinton’s seem to find so precious…..

  50. they are showing his entire speech. He has some new stuff in here man. the guy is good.

    ok jason, so tell me how is he different from Bill..

  51. No, she is still running as a woman/mother/wife. She plays the card regularly.

  52. good points too Lg. I guess that is what is killing her too. To chameleon like maybe…

  53. A-, due to length. I only asked for a 500-word essay.

  54. jason330

    It is the 50 state strategy. Trying to win over every voter. Not just every Democratic or every swing state voter.

  55. jason330

    A touch long.

  56. I thought you were going to rate it on a tissue count basis…

    I think 4 tissues.

    OHHHHH talking about Obama jumping on her. Maybe if she fucking congratulated him he wouldn’t have jumped her shit.

  57. clinton’s press secretary has a life jacket on.

  58. Lisa Caputo = Rachel Maddows with better hair and accesories

  59. jason330

    Cheers everyone. 3/4 it is wrapped up.

    ‘night all.

  60. cassandra m

    So do you think that Hillary told her Ohio audience that Wisconsin did not matter?

  61. is that some sort of a black joke? like “aren’t you all related?”

  62. cassandra m

    Good Night, Jason; Good Night Everybody! This was fun….

  63. I’m gonna hit it. Thanks for coming out all. Joe, I expect realtime updates all night on Hawaii…

    🙂

  64. Wow, Clinton is getting hit on not giving a concession speech. Fantastic.

  65. what am I fucking chopped liver! screw you all.

    you will rue the day that DV leaves!!!!!!

  66. ugh, she is so snide!

    She is not earning that confidence…

  67. I’m the fucking Ed McMahon of this site!

    YYYYYYES!

  68. Her voice is like an icepick through my ears

  69. she is so unauthentic.

    she got her ass kicked again, nothing. she hasn’t thanked him yet. she is so delusional. She is losing not only her voice but she is taking her husbands legacy down with her

  70. I notice the signs that say “We’ve got your back”

    Like her supporters know that she is now the underdog.

  71. I never liked her or him. I’ve been saying it for months.

    “we will bring home our troops” the ones you voted yes to send to war…

    whatever man….

  72. the longer the campaign goes on the more done she is. It is a slow climb for Obama. His momentum is slowly grabbing her candidates.

    maybe it’s because he’s a man, or that they believe him.

    i think part of it is that the people vote for a winner thing

  73. I swear, CNN has a farm where they grow these cute women

  74. joe scarborough: hillary is sounding like guiliani

  75. “i think part of it is that the people vote for a winner thing”

    agreed, but that can turn into a nice big snowball.

  76. I’m just so leary of falling victim to the bullshit.

    Politicians at this level man are still politicians you know

  77. just wait till CNN has Bagella talk. the guy is on Clinton’s pay roll and it is so freaking obvious. How CNN allows that is total bullshit.

    the women on CNN are older MILF’s though…

  78. buchanan: at least they got the leisure crowd out from behind mcclain

  79. I can relate. It’s what keeps me from taking a party line. Maybe again my better judgement, however, I think Obama is genuine in his thirst for change

  80. I like this guy Gene from Wapo. He is pretty good. needs to talk over Pat though…

  81. From the AP

    Barack Obama cruised past a fading Hillary Rodham Clinton in the Wisconsin primary Tuesday night, gaining the upper hand in a Democratic presidential race for the ages. It was Obama’s ninth straight victory over the past three weeks, and left the former first lady in desperate need of a comeback in a race she long commanded as front-runner.

    h/t to Olbermann

  82. Give us a scandal, Hilary! Burn out, don’t fade away!

  83. “so how pissed is hillary tonight?”

    Let’s just say I wouldn’t want to be her gimp tonight.

  84. i’m done watching matthews shit . . . night all

  85. ok, so matthews is trying to appear unbiased because….

  86. nite, nemski!

    I’ll be listening to the bands on your blog tomorrow 🙂

  87. DAMN olberman smacked the shit out of Matthews!!!!

  88. Oh that was sweet. Look for that on Crooks and liars my friends. Olberman handed tweety his ass!

  89. Olberman comes out with some good ones. I liked his “don’t speak after Obama” crack last week
