- sworn affidavits she received from Hillary supporters who witnessed first-hand the thuggish tactics employed by Obama campaign operatives in Iowa and elsewhere.
Jeff, a precinct captain for Clinton from Davenport, Iowa, thought his caucus was in the bag for his candidate, until just minutes before the voting actually began.
%u201CFrom 6-6:30 p.m., it appeared as I had expected. Young, old males, females, Hispanics, whites, gay and lesbian friends arriving. Very heavily for Ms. Clinton, a fair amount for Edwards and some stragglers for Obama,%u201D he said.
That makeup corresponded to what he had witnessed from many precinct walks he had made through local neighborhoods.
%u201CMy mind began to feel victory for my lady,%u2019 he said. %u201CTHEN: at 6:50 p.m., over 75 people of African-American descent came walking in, passed the tables and sat in the Obama section. I knew one of them from my canvassing. I knew another one who did not live in this precinct. And aside from four or five families that live on Hillandale Road, there are no other black people in this unusually white precinct. And one of those black couples were in my Hillary section,%u201D he said.
Thanks to the last-minute influx of unknown Obama supporters, Obama won twice the number of delegates from the precinct as Hillary Clinton.
After it was over, %u201Ca very large bus was seen in the parking lot afterwards carrying these folks back%u201D to Illinois, Jeff said. - Reply to this comment
- The Obama campaign recently admitted that it paid an affiliate of ACORN, the controversial community organizer that Obama represented in Chicago, more than $832,000 for %u201Cvoter turnout%u201D work during the primaries. The campaign initially claimed the money had been spent on %u201Cstaging, sound and light%u201D and %u201Cadvance work.%u201D
State and federal law enforcement in 11 states are investigating allegations of voter registration fraud against the Obama campaign. ACORN workers repeatedly registered voters in the name of %u201CMickey Mouse,%u201D and registered the entire starting lineup of the Dallas Cowboys twice: once in Nevada, and again in Minnesota.
A group that has worked with ACORN in the past registered a dead goldfish under the name %u201CPrincess Nudelman%u201D in Illinois. When reporters informed Beth Nudelman, a Democrat, that her former pet was a registered voter, she said, %u201CThis person is a dead fish."
ACORN was known for its %u201Cintimidation tactics,%u201D said independent scholar Stanley Kurtz, a senior fellow with the Ethics and Public Policy Center in Washington, D.C., who has researched Obama%u2019s long-standing ties to the group.

- In caucus after caucus, Obama bused in supporters from out of state, intimidated elderly voters and women, and stole election packets so Hillary supporters couldn%u2019t vote. Thanks to these and other strong-arm tactics, Obama won victories in all but one of the caucuses, even in states such as Maine where Hillary had been leading by double digits in the polls.
Obama%u2019s win in the caucuses, which were smaller events than the primaries and were run by the party, not the states, gave him the margin of victory he needed to win a razor-thin majority in the delegate count going into the Democratic National Convention. - Reply to this comment

- Christians never fail to embarrass me. I''m a Christian and I''m so very tired of the xenophobia and hate that spews out of our "Christian" mouths. It''s time to turn the page on this type of divisive and hatefulness. Obama is a Christian. Since when did Christians develop a litmus test for the faithful? Is there some Christian criteria examination I missed? People need to read the bible and stop listening to James Dobson and Rush Limbaugh for "the word". Do you really think there people running around the Middle East during biblical times named "Matthew, Luke, John, and Paul"? If you believe that, then you''ll believe anything.

"If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved."
It doesn''t matter if who your father on earth is, in Romans if you confess your belief in Christ, you can and will be saved. Remember that Jesus was not a Christian, Muhammad was not a Muslim, and Buddha was not a Buddhist. Before you get stuck on stupid, remember even the holiest of the holy had to receive their anointing from a higher power than themselves. - Reply to this comment

You''re grasping for straws, dude. Let it rest. In the next few years Obama will solve our national problems one by one. It''ll be quite a sight. I hope you''ll enjoy it as much as the rest of the country. - Reply to this comment
