    Hillary Clinton Mocks Barack Obama During Campaign Rally

    can you say d e s p e r a t e? Hillary manages to insult all of the people who support Barack Obama and believe in his message in 54 seconds. And she accuses him of running a negative campaign? Shame on you Hillary.

    if, and its a big IF, she somehow manages to win the party's nomination, how is she going to win back all the Obama supporters that she has insulted? she won't. they'll either go back to being disenchanted with politics or will vote for McCain.
    Obama has kept his positive hopeful message throughout his campaign. He has defended himself against her attacks but has not lowered himself to her tactics.

    florida and michigan

    Clinton wants the delegates she won from Michigan and Florida to count in her bid to become the Democrat party's nominee.

    Clinton has also been fighting for her delegates in Michigan and Florida. She won both states, but they were stripped of their delegates for scheduling their primaries too early.
    Clinton and other candidates had signed a pledge to not campaign in either state after the Democratic National Committee's decision.
    Last month, Clinton released a statement calling on her party to seat both states' delegates at the national convention this summer. advertisement
    Her campaign also launched a new site -- Delegatehub.com -- touted as "fact and myths about the race for delegates in the Democratic nomination."
    The site argues Florida and Michigan delegates should count. Clinton was the only top-tier candidate on the Michigan ballot.


    Yeah, that's really fair. Win two states in which one didn't even have Barack Obama on the ballot and in which neither state he campaigned. Nice to see shes willing to play fair.

    here it comes

    In order to drum up support for a Terrorist Surveillance bill, Dubya is warning the House that "At this moment, somewhere in the world, terrorists are planning new attacks on our country," the president said. "Their goal is to bring destruction to our shores that will make September the 11th pale by comparison."
    This is also pretty convenient for the republicans who are trying to get McCain into office this november. Scare the nation into thinking they need another republican as president, who are supposedly better at fighting terrorists than democrats. i wonder how many threats about terrorism we'll hear this election year...

    obamacans

    Barack Obama has been drawing votes from Republicans (though still a small number) and he coined the new term Obamacans last night in his speech in Wisconsin. I love the part where he talks about Republicans whispering to him about voting for him, very funny.

    He won Maryland, DC and Virginia by healthy margins. Hillary is in denial. Hey Wisconsin, Texas and Ohio, according to a poll by Time Magazine Obama would beat McCain 48% to 41%, with Hillary tieing with McCain. Vote for the candidate who can win and will be the best president, you can't lose!

    portfolio

    I've come to a place with my portfolio that I feel good about letting other people see it ;) the version i did for class was still a little rough so I wanted to clean it up before I linked to it here.

    he's got the momentum!

    Maine. Washington. Nebraska. Louisiana. Virgin Islands. Barack Obama swept the weekend's elections/caucuses. If you missed his speech Saturday night in Virginia, check it out on CNN.com If you have any doubt about his ability to inspire an electorate, watch the video.

    Hillary explains that she never expected to win those states because caucuses favor activists and that "they don't represent the electorate, we know that." Mmm hmm.. sounds like a case of soreloseritus
