  1. I can’t join you for Democratic fun tonight, Jason. I burned the brownies. I am so ashamed. Must be my right-wing conspiracy kicking in again. I still dislike chimpy, though.

  2. jason330

    Now why does that come so easy for you, but is impossible for your party mates to admit?

  3. John Feroce

    I’m in.

    Why is Obama acting like he’s behind and coming out all defensive? I think he’s making a mistake.

    ooohhh…getting down and dirty very quickly!

  4. George

    what channel is the debate?

  5. jason330

    I have CNN.

  6. jason330

    I’m joining late and I don’t think I;m going to make it long tonoght.

    Q: is sub-prime mess racial

    A: yes

  7. jason330

    Edwards can’t understand why he is running third.

  8. jason330

    Greenspan says the bubble needs to pop naturally. I wonder why he thought it was such a good idea to pump the bubble up?

  9. jason330

    Obama: Banks have dominated policy in washington. Bancrupcy bill sucks. Clinton voted for it thinking it wouldn;t pass.

  10. John Feroce

    Count me in as one of those Republicans smiling ear to ear watching this slugfest.

  11. jason330

    I don’t blame you. Your guy is going to need a lot of help.

  12. cassandra m

    I had to switch to IE to see the CNN stream. Ick.

    Hillary is not especially good at the misinformation, is she? Her body language is pretty revealing.

    And none of them have voted on anything for months.

  13. John Feroce

    Edwards just punched Obama in the mouth.

    If you saw that exchange, the only honest assessment is Obama = pussy

    Voted PRESENT 100 times instead of yes or no?

  14. Obama, jab to the gut, I didn’t vote for the war.

    I haven’t followed I have led

  15. jason330

    here to. I catching a bit here and there.

  16. Hillary Lie, my health care will cover everyone…

  17. give comprehensive health care to everyone? Can I get that in writing?

    I believe Romeny before her.

    Get prices down and bargain with the health care companies? HELLO the lobbyist are giving her money

  18. jason330

    I just don;t get the Dems who like her.

  19. PUKE!!!! Don’t you love how they raise their tone to signal to the crowd. CLAP DOGGIES. so annoying.

    sound bite politicians

  20. why doesn’t your plan cover illegals?

    what the fuck kind of question is that?

  21. jason330

    Obama gets high marks on thise health care respnse from the wife. Very High.

  22. cassandra m

    I just don;t get the Dems who like her.

    John Kerry Syndrome, I think.

  23. uh oh, Obama jabbing on the “corportate bullies”….

    who’s looking out for who Obama? House insurance? interesting analogy.

    Why is blitzer asking if illegals are going to be covered? sounds kind of like Republican baiting to me

  24. why don’t people vote for fucking Edwards?

  25. John Feroce

    Does Edwards want to be VP again?

    what’s with the “I love Hill tonight”?

  26. Obama taking shots on specifics on Hillary’s plan.

    Lets see how she triangulates out of this one.

  27. jason330

    Hillary should know about failed health care. plans. Why does she think she is going to get it done this time?

  28. uh she said she is going to the matt? is that by herself or with Bill? an Evolution…uh oh, shot at Obama for changing his votes.

    She is hitting him low on his voting record.

    No band aids?

  29. Giovanni,

    I don’t think edwards is running for VP as much as he is trying to become part of the group and not the step brother

  30. This gang up could backfire on Clinton and help Obama alot.

  31. That was a Republican frame question. “win it” my ass.

  32. She sounds like McCain. I think Edwards and Obama should slam her.

  33. De ba’athification…big benchmark? what is this fucking guy talking about? The BA’athist disagreed with the laws that were supposed to get them back in….

    oh christ what is with these questions.

    NOW hillary is bringing them home in 6 months?

    Lets see if she talks about political? Yes, very good Billary.

    Slip, she is saying the Iraqi Govt is motivated? No, they aren’t. Mistake, she shouldn’t have alluded to iraq improving. Repubs are going to be all over that.

  34. John Feroce

    I’m glad Hillary thinks she’s responsible for the surge’s progress…what was that earlier..PUKE!

  35. Go Johnny!

    “If bush recognizes it. It really has to be out there”

    that will get some votes.

    Here he goes about what he will do. Force them Johnny! Force them

  36. Lots of military in SC. They have to like that Obama line. Careful vs careless.

  37. cassandra m

    She gave herself a big hedge with all of the yada yada about American citizens still there.

  38. John Feroce

    Your guys are not only scary, they’re dangerous.

  39. Obama is stammering on Iraq. Not good if indi’s are watching.

    Turned it around to slam a Republican FINALLY hit McCain on his 100 year plan. Finally talk about the $$$$ jesus christ what takes these guys so long to talk about the cost.

    Finally talking about AQ. Jesus how long does it take these guys to talk about the failures and make them sound different from the Republicans.

  40. ohhh…Giovanni wants us to be scared of Saddams WMDs.

    Go figure.

  41. cassandra m

    Haliburton and Blackwater are going to be sad sad sad to see Bush go.

    Unless Hillary wins, I think.

  42. is it me or have they forgotten how to talk about what is wrong with this country and then talk about how it needs to change.

    Wolf Shitzer is an idiot

  43. oh, a clean coal commercial. uh huh. Just don’t mind the fish with more mercury in them while we burn the stuff

  44. John Feroce

    Jason

    Your team sounds retarded. You can’t move troops and equipment in 60 days…you are ignoring their ignorance.

    Hate the GOP, but don’t fall in love with idiots,

  45. Chelsea. Poor thing. Snarter than the Bush girls though. Didn’t one of those Bush girls het knocled up?

    Your liberal media is all over that.

  46. I think the voters will differ, when the choice is 60 days vs. 100 years.

  47. start moving in 60 days paisona. can’t you hear? she didn’t say all out in 60days. come now, clean out your ears Rush

  48. Its funny to see so much of the public so concentrated on national elections..re-political junkies. I we had more or as much interest in local politics we,d probably solve a few more problems at home.

  49. so lets see during the break.

    Foreign car commercials

    Coal Commercials

    Drug Company commercials

  50. John Feroce

    Edwards was your only hope…you missed the boat.

    Far left pushed him to policies viewed as extreme in order to get a seat at the table with Obama and Hill over the last year. Media caught on and he was ignored.

    He would have been your best bet in the general.

    Hillary will pull it out.

  51. rob stick around this blog is pretty heavy into local politics.

  52. does Obama’s head always lean to his right?

  53. John Feroce

    previous format was better…what are we on Oprah now?

  54. John Feroce

    No he’s bi-racial

  55. “I have spoken with a lot of black people this week”

    what the fuck is that? What is a lot. 5, 10, 20. Your liberal Media people.

  56. Its funny to see so much of the public concentrated on national elections.(Political junkies) If we had more or as much interest in local politics we,d probably solve a few more problems at home.

  57. Should black people vote for a black guy because he is black?

    What a stupid question. Should a white person vote for a white person becuase he is white ?

  58. John Feroce

    will someone answer Rob please 🙂

  59. my name is John Edwards and I have black friends.

    My name is hillary and I’m married to a black man.

    my name is Obama and I’m black.

    You’re black who do you vote for?

    Christ. Why don’t they just give the black people buckets of fried chicken while they sit up there and pander to them and make it out right obvious.

    Hillary referencing her husband….priceless

  60. John Feroce

    I think Obama should just answer the next question by saying “Present”

  61. My name is Huckabee and I don’t care about your flag. State Rights people.

  62. you must be new here to make a comment about local politics. jason has been eating, sleeping and breathing local stuff for the past week.

  63. John Feroce

    I’m going to lead the homeless military and storm the palace!

    200k living under bridges…are you F!@#$ serious.

  64. john edwards just told a great story.

    The right however thinks that people should live like that. So how do you combat that thinking.

  65. cassandra m

    Oh no. Not the Toni Morrison quote. This is my biggest Clinton pet peeve.

  66. ok, what kind of question is this? Did I not just say 5 minutes ago the same thing? Christ! your biased liberal media

  67. What a great response by Obama to a stuoid question.

    Home run.

  68. John Feroce

    Where’s the punchline?

  69. cassandra m

    People always misuse that damn quote. I saw Toni Morrison in Philly on her last book tour and she was asked about it and she was Annoyed.

  70. John Feroce

    Great response…I need to study moreto see if Bill Clinton’s a brother?

  71. Clinton: “One of my heros…Fredrick Douglas…”

    Oh jeez.

  72. cassandra m

    Obama did great. Respect to Bill, dis the question.

  73. cassandra m

    Ah. A Talented Tenth fan.

  74. cassandra m

    That was for the Donviti @89.

  75. Personally I was looking for a juneteenth reference!

    Hillary should just say she is willing to adobt a negro baby and be done with it

  76. Clinton is good at this. Move onto going after the Republicans.

    Obama needs to learn that.

  77. John Feroce

    I stopped at a rest stop once in South Carolina, should I run for President?

  78. you are a carpetbagger giovanni is that a rhetorical question?

  79. John Feroce

    “Hillary should just say she is willing to adobt a negro baby and be done with it”

    too late, Bill has his eyes/heart set on a 16 year old Korean girl….relax, anybody see Tom Hanks, Bachelor Party, when he was asked about children

  80. this campaign is not about our spouses. Mine just happens to be a brother, that was president and everyone loves that SOB so suck this nipple bitches!

  81. John Feroce

    Dv

    Leave it up to you to hit below the belt all the time

  82. when is this shit over? I can’t take much more of these people

  83. um it’s true paisano. If you are going to call him out you better think twice chump.

    if speaking the truth is considered below the belt to you then I suggest you think before you speak.

  84. John Feroce // Jan 21, 2008 at 9:39 pm

    I stopped at a rest stop once in South Carolina, should I run for President
    Rob says, No I saw your videos

  85. John Feroce

    Your a fucking loser DV…that’s the truth. Happy?

  86. cassandra m

    Go Obama!

  87. DV – he was talking about the carpet bagger stuff.

  88. you called him a carpet bagger

    and you my friend are one

    so shut the fuck up hypocrite if you don’t want to hear it, then keep your gun totting, RI mouth shut about someone else’s residential issues

  89. I guess I don’t understand how it is below the belt

  90. I’m out

    Thanks for the comments John, Cassandra, Rob, DV.

    Peace!

  91. John Feroce

    DV

    What are you talking about? I was goofing on him pushing I was born in SC, grew up here…blah blah blah..it was a joke, the rest stops in SC are the worst in the country.

    Typical of you to take it into another direction.

  92. John Feroce

    Later Jason, Thanks.

  93. my apologies, the power of the internet.

    I wasn’t aware their rest rooms are the worst

  94. John Feroce

    Thanks DV…no harm, no foul.

    I’ll try to be easier on the trigger back too.

    Peace

  95. edwards slamming lobbyists and clinton fighting back.

    but she won’t say no of course.

  96. he isn’t letting go and she isn’t either. interesting though she isn’t backing off and christ almighty this is horrible.

  97. man none of these guys can talk about lobbyists and Obama knows it. He moved away smartly should be interesting to read about tomorrow.

  98. cassandra m

    Entrenched interests are hard to dis when you are part of the entrenchment.

    But I am all for getting rid of the politics of fear.

  99. boy he moved away from that lobbyist thing. pathetic. Wouldn’t it have been nice if they had ALL agreed to not have any lobbyist associated At ALL with their campaigns?

    so sad, so sad.

  100. cassandra m

    Going to have to turn in now. See you guys!

  101. Von Cracker

    Have to say that the Dems put up 3 really good candidates, even Hillary!! – Though she’s still the 3rd choice.

    Though Edwards did the best and it was good to see Obama fight back against the conservative DLC.

    Many moderate-to-conservative voters forgot that they were on the boat to the far right during the Reagan years…it must have been that bait and switch tactic which worked so well, which was a authoritarian populist view (Morning in America tripe). For if you think that the Dems positions are far left, you truly don’t know about leftist politics.

  102. anon

    Dems abandoning Edwards are no smarter than Dems who abandoned Dean in 2004.

  103. Barack and Pastor Wright may be closer than we originally thought….be carefull

  104. Oh My Freakin’ God.

    Rob, this thread is dead. It died on January 22 at 11:05AM. What the hell are you doing? If you want to comment, please, please, please try to do it on something that is an active discussion, make sure it’s on-topic and try to do it sober.

    I’m starting to feel bad about hatin’ on you. It’s like booing at the Special Olympics.

  105. liberalgeek, I saw your pic….thought you were a little more intellegent than you write….

  106. “5000 of our children in the city of Wilmington live in poverty” Lets do the math…at 3 children per family this comes to over 1600 families living below poverty.

    Terry Schooley, Project Director for KIDS COUNT Delaware, and member of the State House of Representatives, released the 5th Edition of the Wilmington KIDS COUNT Fact Book.

    Schooley says the numbers show there’s still a way to go to give the city’s kids what they need, but a lot has been accomplished.

    Schooley says while infant mortality stabilizes, the percentage of low birth weight babies remains on the rise, and 34% of the city’s 20,000 children live in poverty…Something that just starts the ball rolling

  107. Rob, please get a clue. First, I am certain that you have not seen my picture. Second, this particular conversation is dead…still. Your inability to grasp these things are the reason that you are a joke.

    You are acting like an old man that randomly shouts something like “Nixon Lied!” in a nursing home. We get it, but you are not speaking in context.
