Strategic voting part duex!

Heres to the previous poster about the republican voting for Hillary! This says more and is more believable!

Get a grip.

February is a tough month for Clinton. I warned you that the calendar favored Obama. He's having a remarkable string of wins and deserves credit for it. But how many large states has he won? Illinois. It's not enough. We're not going to win South Carolina in November, nor Nebraska; but maybe Missouri, which Obama won by a very narrow margin. Clinton has won New York, California, Massachusetts against the entire Kennedy clan, plus quite a few very red states. Texas and Ohio are coming up and that's where she's focused right now, doing satellite interviews all day why many of you, let's see how to put this... ... whine.

Quit channeling Eugene Robinson. You're falling into the trap they hope you stay in, especially with the polling coming out today showing Obama ahead nationally. Don't trust polls.

If you listen to some Republicans, you'll see that this Obamamania has got them licking their chops. Pat Buchanan on "Morning Joe" made the point of all points yesterday. Obama has made a huge mistake in this campaign. He has not defined himself. That makes him incredibly vulnerable as a general election candidate. Never mind I don't see a national strategy for him to win. Again, Idaho won't do it, even as impressive as his rallies have been. He deserves a lot of credit for the inspiration he's delivering, but there is no beef. In a general election, it simply will not be enough.

One Republican showed himself today, which I think is instructive to everyone. Robert Bluey voted for Obama. Bluey director of the Center for Media & Public Policy at The Heritage Foundation in Washington, D.C.

It's partly for this reason that I decided to cast my vote for Barack Obama today. Although national polls give Obama a small advantage over John McCain in the general election, I firmly believe that McCain would handily defeat the inexperienced Obama. Secondly, I fear what the Clinton attack machine would do to McCain. Their ferocity would be worse than George W. Bush's ugly attacks in 2000. Anyone who reads this blog regularly knows how much I dislike negative campaigning, and a Clinton-McCain matchup would be just that.

Because my vote for Obama will likely be ridiculed by many friends on the right, I want to explain exactly why I chose to cross party lines to back the Democrat senator from Illinois.

1) Electability. According to Real Clear Politics, McCain would beat Clinton by 1.2 percentage points. McCain, however, loses to Obama by 3.7 percentage points using the same polling average. Despite what these polls indicate today, I predict the numbers would flip once Democrats pick a nominee.

As Clinton pollster Mark Penn told Chris Cillizza, "The Republican attack machine redefines the Democratic candidate." Fortunately (or unfortunately) for Clinton, there's nothing left to define. But in the case of Obama, there are millions of Americans who know little about him or his far-left views. His lack of experience makes him even more vulnerable. It is for this reason that I would give McCain the edge in a head-to-head matchup with Obama. I'm not so sure the same is true against Hillary. ... ..

The wingnuts are floating trial attack balloons aimed at Obama. So far they're pitiful. But since Obama hasn't defined himself, you can bet they'll get busy doing it for him. They're saving their big guns in case Democrats make the mistake and give him the nod.

OBAMA: You Can Be A Democrat For One Day

Seems there's a New Political Party: the Obamacrats

In Nevada Barack Obama has put out a flyer reading, in part, "You Can Be A Democrat for A Day." It's a plea to caucus for Obama, even if you just become a Democrat for one day.

A copy of the flyer can be see here:

You can be a Democrat for one day.

Vote for Obama and then return to your voting status as you chose

Everyone regardless of party is welcome to be a Democrat for one day and vote.

Republicans, Independents, Everyone, you can make THE difference.

If you think a Democrat will win in November and you don't want Hillary you can come to the Democratic Caucus and vote for Obama.

Jauaury 19. 11 to 1 p.m

What can ya say? My God, each day brings more shocks that show just how Obama's campaign is willing to do ANYTHING to win.  Even destroy the entire meaning of our Party's caucuses and Primary system.  My God.

Obama=Hillary

Reading the blogosphere today, especially among righties, I was struck by the gleeful, sophomoric attitude that the witch was vanquished.  Even Andrew Sullivan had the temerity to criticize her when she invoked a Brit (Thatcher) when it should have been point of pride for him.  I have found the coverage of Hillary grossly unfair; and I do consider her to have marginally better qualifications than Obama; but by and large, Hillary's and Obama's policy differences hover on nuance.  If anything, a strong democrat may be able to marshall more resources to the upcoming liberalization (pun intended) of America. From universal health care, withdrawal from Iraq, sane Supreme Court nominees, government oversight and efficiency, tax modifications, environmental safeguards and protecting SSA; President Hillary or President Obama do not differ much.  And though some of us may be temporarily peeved on some issue statements or remarks, the liberal blogosphere overwhelmingly wants solutions.  So let the petty partisans toast the demise of Hillary.  We don't care. We never cared about whether Hillary represented a dynasty or we never obsessed personally about Bush (we do obssess about his insane policies). What we always wanted was a liberal Congress and president (thank goodness the Boren's and Kerry's of the world are no longer in government) and we are very close in accomplishing such.  You see, it is not personal, it is a business. If I could have somehow planned what will happen November 2008 the way it has transcurred so far, I would not believe I could have pulled it off.  Let's just say that Hillary has served as a diversion and now the time is too late to demonize Obama.
