Finger-stabbing Endorsement

"I want all of you who supported her to vote for Barack Obama in November."

-- Bill Clinton, endorsing Obama while jabbing a finger at the liberal Democrat convention delegates at the Pepsi Center earlier tonight.

The last time Bill Clinton jabbed a finger, he was telling the nation he "did not have sexual relations with that woman, Ms. Lewinsky."

Rewind to last fall, when Bubba said:

"I mean, when is the last time we elected a president based on one year of service in the Senate before he started running?"

Dems choose Obama in thunderous acclamation
Aug 27, 7:18 PM (ET)
By DAVID ESPO

DENVER (AP) - Barack Obama, claiming a prize never held by a black American, swept to the Democratic presidential nomination on Wednesday as thousands of national convention delegates stood and cheered his improbable triumph.

Former rival Hillary Rodham Clinton asked the convention delegates to make it unanimous "in the spirit of unity, with the goal of victory." And they did, with a roar.

Competing chants of "Obama" and "Yes we can" floated up from the convention floor as Obama's victory was sealed.

Obama was across town as the delegates he won in the primaries of winter and spring cast their votes. Aides left open the possibility that he would briefly visit the Pepsi Center to thank his supporters, a routine event at recent national conventions. His formal acceptance speech Thursday night was expected to draw a crowd of 75,000 at a nearby football stadium where an elaborate backdrop was under construction.

Clinton's call for Obama to be approved by acclamation - midway through the traditional roll call of the states - was the culmination of a painstaking agreement worked out between the two camps to present a unified front.

Theatrics, that's all. Hillary is allowed to save face and pretend to be the power broker. What a childish display. Obama and Hillary aren't fooling anyone, not even their own blind followers.

Obama "X"

"Suppose, for example, you're a voter, and you've got candidate X and candidate Y. Candidate X agrees with you on everything, but you don't think that person can deliver on anything. Candidate Y disagrees with you on half the issues, but you believe that on the other half the candidate will be able to deliver. For whom will you vote?"

-- Bill Clinton in Denver posing a hypothetical question, which he immediately said "has nothing to do with what's going on now."

Watch the video here.

Bill Clinton, Freudian to the bitter end.

"Unity" at ANY Cost

"He's sort of like us. He comes from a middle-class background, went to school on scholarships. He and his wife had to figure out child care and how to start a college fund for their kids.'"

- Barack Obama describing himself as he tries to woo blue-collar, read "White," voters.



Obama aims convention at blue-collar voters

By DAVID ESPO, AP Special Correspondent

DENVER - On the eve of the Democratic National Convention, Barack Obama said Sunday he hoped a week of political speechmaking would persuade reluctant middle-class voters to swing behind his bid for the White House, while Republicans sought to stir discontent among Hillary Rodham Clinton's supporters.

Clinton was having none of it. Obama's rival in a bruising battle for the nomination was expected to release her delegates at midweek in a unity gesture.

Obama, bidding to become the first black president, campaigned through swing-state Wisconsin, then flew home to Chicago to work on the acceptance speech he will deliver before 75,000 partisans on the convention's closing night.

Previewing the week ahead, he said he hoped convention viewers would conclude, "He's sort of like us. He comes from a middle-class background, went to school on scholarships. He and his wife had to figure out child care and how to start a college fund for their kids.'"

Clinton outpolled Obama among working-class voters in many states through the winter and spring, and Sen. John McCain and the Republicans have worked relentlessly in more recent weeks to depict the Illinois senator as an elitist who is out of touch with blue-collar concerns.

Obama is in trouble with White blue-collar voters and he knows it. Saying that he is "sort of like" middle class, blue-collar, Whites is beyond a Freudian slip. He has absolutely nothing in common with them.

Not many folk in Ohio and Pennsylvania were educated in private schools in Hawaii and Indonesia.

Or went to Harvard.

Or live in a $3 million + mansion.

Or have been friends with domestic terrorists and Black supremacists.

Or ridicule people's faith and gun possession.

Here's more hypocrisy from the left in the name of "unity."

Dems give Michigan and Florida full voting rights

By STEPHEN OHLEMACHER, Associated Press Writer

Sun Aug 24, 3:25 PM ET

DENVER - Democratic delegates from Michigan and Florida were awarded full voting rights at the national convention Sunday, despite holding early primaries against party rules.

The convention credentials committee voted unanimously to restore the voting privileges at the behest of Barack Obama, the party's presumptive nominee for president. The states were initially stripped of delegates for holding primaries before Feb. 5. The party's rules committee restored the delegates in May, but gave them only half votes.

Democrats hope the gesture will strengthen their standing in two important battleground states while ending a contentious chapter of the nominating process.

"The only way we will be successful is if we are unified as a party and all Democrats know we are full partners," said Chris Edley Jr., a committee member from California who introduced the resolution to restore Florida's votes.

The party's move raises questions about whether it will be able to control its primary calendar in the future. A commission will work on the issue over the next two years.

Representatives from Florida and Michigan said they were penalized enough. None of the major candidates campaigned in the states before the primaries, and the delegates' votes weren't restored until after the nomination was decided.

"We realize that mistakes have been made, but we're excited in Florida," said Scott Maddox, a former Florida Democratic chairman and a member of the credentials committee. "We have suffered enough."

Is anyone surprised? Rules mean nothing to Democrats.

Doom

Clinton delegates back Obama, but poll show concern
By John M. Broder and Dalia Sussman
Published: August 25, 2008

Delegates to the Democratic National Convention arrive in Denver having largely put aside the deep divisions of the primary fight between Senators Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton, although some hold lingering concerns about Obama's level of experience, according to a New York Times/CBS News poll.

More than half of the delegates that Clinton won in the primaries now say they are enthusiastic supporters of Obama, and they also believe he will win the presidential election in November, the poll found. Three in 10 say they support Obama but have reservations about him or they support him only because he is the party's nominee. Five percent say they do not support him yet.

The poll, which was taken before Obama selected Senator Joseph Biden Jr. of Delaware as his running mate, also suggests that Clinton's 1,640 pledged delegates are evenly split over whom they plan to vote for on the floor of the convention during the roll call vote on Wednesday evening.

There will be blood. The PUMAs are on the prowl, though. Obama didn't ingratiate himself any by dissing Hillary yet again when he picked Joe "The Mouth" Biden to be his running mate.

Hell than no fury, Barry.

Hillary's Supporters to Obama: "Party Unity My A**!"

“The chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Biden is one of the most influential foreign policy voices in Congress. An internationalist and strong supporter of the United Nations, he is a leading critic of what he sees as the vague, unilateralist approach of President Bush.

“Biden voted in 2002 to authorize the Iraq invasion, which Obama opposed from the start. Since then, he’s become a firm critic of the conflict and pushed through a resolution last year declaring that Bush’s troop increase—now considered a military success—was ‘not in the national interest.’”

Senator Biden brings to the table a wealth of foreign policy experience, knowledge and legislative ability. He is one of a few senators and representatives who have published well thought out plans for ending Bush’s fiasco in Iraq. Whether one agrees with the plan or not, it is a plan not a bumper sticker.

In contrast to Biden’s plan, John McCain wants to duke it out to the end with any Iraqi’s who want the American occupying army out.

Senator McCain, by the way, has not quite come to grips with the fact that even our friend Mr Maliki wants the US out within the time line suggested by Mr Obama. Mr McCain’s vision of indefinite occupation apparently does not sit well with the Iraqis.

Mr McCain’s chief foreign policy adviser is a dedicated neocon who was an early pusher for invading Iraq and, until recently, was a paid lobbyist for the government of Georgia, the country Russian just invaded. I wonder what the neocon adviser is not suggesting to Mr McCain?

Some kind, loving conservative patron, perhaps an oil company, might want to gift Mr McCain a course in memory development so that he can remember which countries no longer exist, who Sunni and Shittes are and how they interact in Iraq. And while I do not like to delve into personal information, I do think a presidential candidate should at least be able to remember how many houses he and his spouse own. I don’t care how many he owns, but it does bother me that McCain doesn’t know.

Obama’s choice of Biden for running mate is an admission of weakness. It’s like the Obamafraud’s campaign is telling the American electorate that it’s alright to vote for the inexperienced, clueless George Soros puppet Obama because the “seasoned” Biden has been a “fixture” in Washington for 30 years and wouldn’t let the Obamafraud screw up.

Don’t worry, America. Biden will hold Obama’s hand during the day and answer that 3:00 a.m. crisis phone call Hillary talked about during the Democratic primary after he tucks the Obamachild into bed at night.

I think a governor from the south or west such as Kathleen Sebelius from Kansas might have been a better choice.

Biden does bring foreign policy experience but Obama now has problems with the whole “Change” theme. Biden is a Washington and Democrat insider. In addition, Biden voted for the war in Iraq and against the surge. The problem with voting against the surge, is that most voters are feeling like it worked.

Biden also has a history of saying things that are not politically helpful. In particular, during the last parimary season and directed against Obama.

Finally is the “Clinton” factor. This choice really seems to cut the Clintons out of the Democrat power structure. In addition, if Obama is elected this year he will be the nominee in 2012. This will mean Hillary and her supporters will have to look forward to 2016 for her next chance to run and she would probably be to old. I really don’t think Bill and Hillary are ready to give up on her quest for the White House. Her best chance at the oval office is for McCain to be elected this year. I don’t think her efforts to support McCain and sabotage Obama will be obvious but It will be there. I suspect that it might have been better if the Obama people would have at least given the appearance that they were considering Hillary. I know they have said that they “vetted” her during the primary but that came out so late that now it sounds like an excuse to cover up the fact that they never did consider her.

Biden’s selection is actually an admission by the Obamessiah’s puppet masters that their political Buddha has no political experience whatsoever to justify a run for the presidency of the United States of America.

So the candidate of “change” is reduced to selecting a running mate who has been a “fixture” in Washington for 30 years.

“I think a governor from the south or west such as Kathleen Sebelius from Kansas might have been a better choice.”

I’m with you on this one, sbintn. As I chronicled early this morning at http://paleoconstrikes.blogspot.com/2008/08/christmas-in-august-msm-reporting-obama.html:

“A smart Democratic nominee-in-waiting would have picked Kansas Governor Kathleen Sibelius, a “moderate” by liberal standards, as his running mate. But then again, the Obamessiah may have figured he would alienate Saint Hillary’s supporters if he chose a female running mate other than the megalomaniacal former First Lady.”

Undermining Obama has become trickier for Hillary now that Biden is his running mate, however. She will need to be stealthier than ever to take over Jesse Jackson’s job of cutting Obama’s you-know-whats out.
You say,

“I suspect that it might have been better if the Obama people would have at least given the appearance that they were considering Hillary.”

Hillary, more than anyone in politics, understands the difference between symbolism and substance. I actually think that it would have been more offensive and more disrespectful to pretend to vet her while having no intention of picking her as running mate.

And I think that Obama’s puppet masters knew that vetting Hillary would “obligate” them to choose her in the eyes of the MSM and her fanatical supporters.

The selection of Senator Biden as his running mate just illustrates how desperate Obama is to find some foreign policy credibility for his ticket.

It is an interesting mix of “credibility”, however. Voting for the war in Iraq and then voting against the surge, which has proven to be the most successful strategy of the war, doesn’t do much to qualify you as a foreign policy expert.

I guess his years of sitting at Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearings and mugging for the cameras is enough to qualify you as a Democratic foreign policy expert.

You do have to give the guy credit for his honesty, however.

As Biden has noted: “I would say, quite frankly, its awfully hard not to be qualified on foreign policy and be president in this environment.”

Little wonder Biden found Obama unqualified to be president, at least until he scored the vice presidential nod.

The other interesting point about the Biden selection is the total lack of ideological diversity he brings to the ticket.

Both he and Obama cling to the extreme left of the political spectrum. He’ll appeal to exactly the same political demographic as Obama already does.

You can find evidence of that by which bloggers on this site are praising his selection. Their need for ideological purity has been satisfied.

Christmas in August: Obama Picks Biden for Running Mate

Not the Guy?

Biden speaks _ and speaks _ his own mind
Aug 23 12:51 AM US/Eastern
By CALVIN WOODWARD
Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) - Barack Obama told everyone he wanted a running mate who will challenge his thinking, and now he's got one. Joe Biden's tendency to speak his own mind—and speak and speak—is entwined in his DNA.

The loquacious Delaware senator brings more than verbiage to Obama's side. Biden is a foreign policy heavyweight with a decade longer in the Senate than the seasoned Republican presidential candidate, John McCain. That's almost three more decades of experience than his new boss.

In Washington, Biden, 65, is known as a collegial figure even when he's competitive—one who can spin flowery praise one moment and biting fulmination the next.

His second presidential campaign faltered early on, just one of the Democrats shunted to the sidelines as the bracing contest between Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton sucked the air out of the rest of the field.

The chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Biden is one of the most influential foreign policy voices in Congress. An internationalist and strong supporter of the United Nations, he is a leading critic of what he sees as the vague, unilateralist approach of President Bush.

Biden voted in 2002 to authorize the Iraq invasion, which Obama opposed from the start. Since then, he's become a firm critic of the conflict and pushed through a resolution last year declaring that Bush's troop increase—now considered a military success—was "not in the national interest."

Calling the Obamafraud "clean" and "articulate" must have done the trick.

Just on Tuesday this week, Biden told reporters "I'm not the guy" when reporters asked him if he would be Obama's running mate.

It will be interesting to see how the rabid liberal base of the Democratic Party reacts to an Obama running mate who has voted to authorize President George W. Bush to go to war with Iraq when it was politically convenient to do so and who now questions the unquestionable success of the troop surge in Iraq.

Biden is Hillary with hair plugs.

Biden is pompous and arrogant. It is a physics miracle that his ego and Obama's coexist in the same Universe.

And I can't wait to watch Biden's sure-to-come verbal diarrhea.

[Update] A smart Democratic nominee-in-waiting would have picked Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius, a "moderate" by liberal standards, as his running mate. But then again, the Obamessiah may have figured he would alienate Saint Hillary's supporters if he chose a female running mate other than the megalomaniacal former First Lady.

Hillary Gets Stiffed
by Mike Allen

There’s one Democrat who would seem to have little or no chance of being picked by Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill) to be his running mate – his former opponent,Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.).

But it’s not for the reason you think.

Obama has often said, most recently on NBC'S "Meet the Press” on July 27, that Clinton “would be on anybody’s short list.”

But apparently not his.

“She was never vetted,” a Democratic official reported. “She was not asked for a single piece of paper. She and Senator Obama have never had a single conversation about it. How would he know if she’d take it?”

The official also said Clinton never met with Obama’s vetting team of Eric Holder and Caroline Kennedy.

And the official said she was never asked for medical records or for any financial 2008 information about her or former President Bill Clinton. The last information the couple has disclosed about taxes and financial holdings was for 2007.

The Clintons also were not asked about donors to the William J. Clinton Presidential Library.

“This would be the biggest leap of faith ever,” the official said. “She’s waiting for the text message like everyone else.”

An Obama aide said "absolutely exhaustive research was done on her over the course of the 16 month primary. She was researched more closely than any candidate in history."

There will be blood.

Hillary is not going to take this lying down, baby. If the Obamafraud keeps dissing Hillary, the last thing he is going to have to worry about is a phone call at three o'clock in the morning.

The Obamafraud should have had the decency of at least letting Hillary know that she wasn't being considered and given her the reasons why. They are multiple.

Watch your back, Obamafraud!

Clinton creates 'whip team' to quell anti-Obama protests

In an unusual move, Hillary Clinton's staff is creating a 40-member "whip team" at the Denver Democratic convention to ensure that her supporters don't engage in embarrassing anti-Obama demonstrations during the floor vote on her nomination, according to people familiar with the planning.

The team, which is being organized by longtime Clinton staffer Craig Smith, is working in conjunction with Obama's floor organizers to help foster the image of a unified front during a roll-call process Clinton herself has described as an emotional
"catharsis" for her disappointed supporters.

"If people get down there on the floor and want to start blowing kazoos and making a scene we want to make sure we've got people who stand in front of them with Obama signs," said a person involved in the planning. (More)

Hillary and her minions have reached a new low. Now they are into suppressing the freedom of expression of their own supporters. I wonder if Hillary will follow through with her plan to throw her own worshippers under the bus now that it seems the Obamafraud has never even considered having her as his running mate.

Meanwhile, the Obamafraud vp choice bait-and-switch continues as a sycophantic "main stream" media drools in anticipation. The Obamafraud's vp pick has been "imminent" for a while.

I hope it's Joe Biden. It would be like Christmas and my birthday all wrapped up in one delightful package.

Clinton Rallies Planned for Convention
Tuesday, August 12, 2008 10:30 AM

Supporters of Hillary Clinton are planning a number of rallies at the Democratic national convention in Denver to express their disappointment with the party’s presidential primary process.

The Denver Group, formed by two Clinton backers, has filmed a TV commercial and scheduled a large reception in Denver for August 26.

Another pro-Clinton group, 18 Million Voices, is organizing a march on that day in Denver “and nationwide to support Sen. Clinton and advocate for women’s rights worldwide,” according to its Web site.

Some of the Denver Group’s goals are at odds with those of the Democratic Party, The Hill newspaper reports. It wants an open convention, with Hillary’s name placed in nomination, as well as a genuine roll call vote with Clinton as a legitimate candidate instead of what it calls a “coronation” of Barack Obama.

Clinton backers in Denver will hold signs reading, “Denounce Nobama’s Coronation,” according to the Denver Post. (More ...)

Hillary's backers are still enraged over her defeat to Lord Barack Obama the Divine during the primaries. The NY Senator's acolytes are ready for mischief at the liberal Democratic Convention in Denver and they won't be denied.

The Obamafraud's meager overtures toward Hillarites appear to have failed. Miserably. Maybe Hillary's people are immune to the Obamessiah's Jedi mind tricks.
