Comments on: Electability Question A Hard One To Answer

CBS' Kathy Frankovic: Obama's Claim Of A November Edge Is Based On Shaky Numbers

[denn034]

Slick Hilly is disliked by 50% of Americans so, even if the super delegates come to her rescue it won''t help her in the general election. Obama doesn''t have that dislike problem. McCain is unquestionably more electable than Huckabee or Paul combined. Period!

"NOTICE TO THE DEMOCRATIC SUPER DELEGATES".

Many of the "Super Delegate" votes are in the hands of women who feel an obligation to vote for Hillary for the simple fact that she is a woman. How ludicrous if it weren''''t so important.

My concern now is the course the "Super Delegates" will take. They had best honor our votes and give their "Super Electoral Votes" to the popular vote of the people. Our voices, our votes, had better be taken seriously or I see a rise in revolt against, the Democratic Party, the electoral system, and the politicians that used their votes against our choice.
Should Obama NOT receive the Super Delegates vote if he wins by plurality, I will vote for the Green Party candidate and protest loudly against the obvious lack of honesty with the electoral process.
I suggest that we begin a groundswell against the use of "Super Delegate" votes and return to the popular vote only. Makes sense, doesn''''t it?

WV4Huckabee posts "Make sure you are voting for GOOD change, not just any change."

Have you looked around lately, Dude? At the current state of the nation, ANY change is a "good" change! The only "good" thing extant today is Halliburton''s P&L statement.

Name something "good" for us. Economy? This farce of a "war"? Health care? Education? Immigration? Constitutional checks and balances? Torture condoned by the executive branch?

The Cheney/Bush neocon cabal has trashed EVERYTHING that was ever "good" about America.

So at this point, sadly, ANY change is a GOOD change!

The rest of his comment BTW is one of those "repetitive-for-effect" posts that adds nothing to the dialogue but just takes up space.

"Oh, no. Trust me. We despise so-called "conservatives". We really do. And we''''re going to prove it to you. --The Rest of America"

There ya go folks, the REST OF AMERICA has spoken.

So, CONservatives, please collect your pink slips at the door...no I''m sorry, your health care only goes for a month, you''ll have to apply for unemployment benefits to extend. Oh, you didn''t vote for unemployment extensions? well then you F**KED aren''t you.

I wonder how many voters realize that Obama is rated the most liberal senator in the Senate? How many are aware of his habit of voting "present" on important issues. A "present" vote is generally used to provide political cover for legislators who don''''t want to be on the record.
As an Illinois state legislator, Obama voted "present" (on a bill that would have that would have prohibited a procedure often referred to as partial birth abortion.
Obama voted "present" a bill that required mandatory adult prosecution for firing a gun on or near school grounds. The bill passed the state Senate 52-1.
Obama voted "present" on HB 854 that protected the privacy of ***-abuse victims by allowing petitions to have the trial records sealed. He was the only member to not support the bill.
Obama voted "present" on two parental notification abortion bills and he voted "present" on a series of bills that sought to protect a child if it survived a failed abortion. The Federal version of this bill passed the US Senate 100-0.
Obama voted "present" a bill prohibiting strip clubs and other adult establishments from being within 1,000 feet of schools, churches, and daycares.
Is this the kind of person we want to be President? Is the Senator willing to take a stand on anything? Sure he makes a good speech, but what does he stand for?? Make sure you are voting for GOOD change, not just any change!
