Obama, Clinton To Campaign Together Friday In New Hampshire

By: Brian Montopoli
Topics: Democrats

Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton plan to campaign together at a "Unite For Change" rally on Friday in the town of Unity, New Hampshire. (Now how's that for a symbolic location?)

As the Obama campaign's brief press release notes, "Both candidates received exactly 107 votes in the western New Hampshire town in the primary."

It will be the first joint appearance for the former rivals since Clinton suspended her campaign for the Democratic nomination. The Obama campaign has yet to release further details about the event.

by jack3213 June 24, 2008 4:01 PM EDT: Yet my sense is something fundamental is changing in how we view Obama; he is losing what made him seem special and inspiring. He is nothing but a FRAUD. A silly black man who does not know what he stands for. An inexperianced politician who is hypocritical and seeking nothing but selfish celebritory fame. ABSURD to elect such a liberal liar. Bill Clinton ruined it for Hillary- he will ruin it for Obama, Watch and see.; Reply to this comment


by jack3213 June 24, 2008 2:50 PM EDT: Obama is doing it again. Look at his new commercial introducing himself to the American People and listen to what he is saying at his fundraisers. In his new Commercial introducing himself Obama puts pictures of himself, his mother and Grandparents. He tells us he was raised with Kansas values. The point was to reassure white ethnic middle class voters that he is one of them. Then in his fundraiser, to explain why he is not accepting public financing for the General Election he is telling his African American and Liberal base it is because they will use his Race, African American, against him.in the General Election. Who are the they Obama%u2019s is referring to? The White Rebublican Establishment that runs this country. Those comments were made explicitly for his African American and Liberal base to energize them to register and vote in November. Obama fails to mention the Hate Sites of the Daily Kos and MoveOn.org and other Radical Far Left Wing 527s that are trashing John McCain every day. To Obama they are O.K.; Reply to this comment

"If at 20, you''re not a liberal, you have no heart. And by the time you reach 40, if you''re not a conservative, you have no brain."; Reply to this comment

OUR dream is to remove the disgusting Billary dog and pony show from the American political scene.

Enough - of that krappola - is enough.

Count the caucus states you''ve got to be kidding a caucus that not even an election how can you compare that to a popular vote.
As far as Michigan goes if Obama was on the ticket he would do about the same as he did in Ohio and that would be lose which would give Hillary a bigger share of the popular vote.. I don''t know what my fellow Democrats are going to do but I can''t vote for someone who stabbed our first chance as women to be elected President. Obama you KILLED our dream...; Reply to this comment

lmao!!! Where do you people come up with this stuff????

Let see they (Obama''s staff)called the former President a racist (Obama can''t stand the fact that Bill was called the first Black President) and he accused Hillary of being racist before she even got to Iowa. Obama''s staff put a lot pressure on the super delegates to drop Hillary before the race was even decided remember Hillary beat Obama in the popular vote. Obama plotted against Hillary to cancel the vote in Florida and if you notice now he won''t even campaign in Florida for the general election, since he doesn''t care about all those old people in Florida who''s 401K''s he want to tax to pay for reparation.; Reply to this comment
