Stuart O’Neill:
You’re right, I’m a DFH who was against this damned war from the beginning. Oh, I forgot, being right means a person is not serious. Thank you for sharing.

cold, be specific — what “error” are you talking about? Sending out a press release without clearing it past the other office?

Regards Scaife, I’m not badmouthing Obama for wanting to talk to anyone. I’m saying that Obama supporters who deride her desicion to sit down with the guy and talk, and then turn around and support Obama’s plan to talk to damned near anyone are being hypocritical.

Cold says:

Sen. Clinton & Sen. Obama are the people’s enemy,

Ok, that’s enough info for me to stop listening to that source as a serious analyst.

Janis: Loved your first post above with a PR/media view. Absolutely dead on. You do not treat the senior member of a relationship which in terms of Senate power and seniority, (a serious matter in the Senate), as if they didn’t exist. Hell, you don’t do that in any relationship.

That doesn’t mean McCain is any better for America, it means that the alliance must be treated as such. Hell, Obama choose McCain #1 visceral issue then started acting like he, Obama, was in charge. Bad move.

As usual, you two are making a lot of assumptions. Sen. Clinton & Sen. Obama are the people’s enemy, as long as they continue along the corporate political road. It’s interesting how you two justify Sen. Clinton’s errors by claiming Obama made the same error. What’s up with that? My dear, departed Mother used to say two wrongs never make a right. It must be different these days. & yes, they are ReThugs – must I draw you a picture? (Apologies to Billy Bragg, now there would be a good President, so would Pink.)

Also cold, what we need is to make sure that no one but no one gets in office AGAIN by exclusding any single states’ results. When Bush rigged florida and then Ohio, it was a travesty. Now, the Dems plan to do the same? WTF’s the difference at that point?

Pamela, also interesting reflection coming from someone whose candidacy has been a rosy picture of bipartisan reaching across the aisle with people now called “Thugs.”

If they’re thugs, what the hell is your guy supporting bipartisanship with them for? And if they aren’t, they why are you trying to paint Clinton as evil because she’s supposedly so much like them?

[...] The Democratic Daily wrote an interesting post today onHere’s a quick excerpt Today in the Washington Post in a front page story they recount the disaster that was a less than one week alliance between John McCain and Barrack Obama in his first year in office. Here’s the first three paragraphs: Obama, McCain Forged Fleeting Alliance Efforts to Collaborate on Ethics Reform Fell Apart Within a Week A year into his tenure on Capitol Hill, Barack Obama (D-Ill.) approached John McCain on the Senate floor to propose the two work together on a lobbying and ethics reform bill [...]

“I thought the ReThugs are our enemy, not each other.”

Interesting reflection from someone who tends to treat Hillary Clinton as the enemy here.

Let’s see, Democratic Daily folks, Janis says McCain is better for America than Obama, in fact she “can’t stand Obama”; an earlier post uses the low-life, but wealthy, Scaife as a new supporter of Sen. Clinton, & over at Talk Left, they approve of Karl Rove’s words regarding Sen. Clinton. What the heck is going on here? I thought the ReThugs are our enemy, not each other. I sure hope this doesn’t end bad. McCain is a dangerous person, but…, but…, he’s a maverick & knows all about the inner workings of the Senate. Frankly, who cares. We needed that when LBJ got all of that great stuff through, but right now, we don’t. We need to make sure no ReThug sits in the White House for a long time.
