I am LOL. Sort of... This is why good people don't want to get involved in politics (esp. seeking out elective office). Anyone (unless they've lived in a bubble) can have oppo. generated on them.

So, are we going to argue that Obama is more electable by 200 pages??!!

But of course, its the content, its the content. Something tells me some pages are more densely populated with problems than others.

Interesting blog entry...of course I'm sure we'll be seeing the details over the next six months or so.

Paul F. Villarreal — Thu, 08 May 2008 22:27:36 GMT

Shuster's report is non-relevant, which I would imagine he knew when he filed it.

People often misunderstand the term "Clinton fatigue." The actual genesis of the term refers to the 'tuning out' by the general public of supposed 'scandals' regarding the Clintons. Thousands of pages of oppo research by the GOP against the Clintons are worthless due to this phenomenon: We've heard it all before, and tuned it out long ago.

Obama is the 'fresh meat' in the oppo wars, and thus a mere 10 pages of oppo on him are more relevant than an encyclopedia of similar material against the Clintons.

Obama, as I would imagine someone of Shuster's intellect knows, is simply not electable. Begala's Egghead/AA coalition is not viable. It isn't now, and won't be in November. Shuster, myself and the Democratic superdelegates all know this, and no amount of oppo research on any candidate will alter this reality.

Ok, turning to other, more relevant matters...

Here is an article detailing Clinton supporters' call to electoral arms from this moment until we have won the nomination in August. Obama has absolutely no place to hide now, and it is time to rhetorically take he and his uncritical supporters to the proverbial woodshed:

Clinton supporters and all those opposed to Obama, now is our time to, as the movie Gladiator so eloquently put it, “unleash (metaphorical) hell” against the fatally damaged and ready-to-be-put-out-of-its-misery Obama nomination campaign.

All hands on deck for the coming offensive.

With Obama cleared of any and all wrongdoing as regards Rezko, the 1000 pages are most likely sheer speculation. On the other hand, a government proceeding headed by Ken Starr, who so readily prosecuted Bill Clinton and led to his impeachment, is a far more serious skeleton to have in one's closet. Sitting first lady, lucky ducky is what I'd call HRC. Too bad for her she didn't stay wisely out of this race, and she would be well advised tphead for the nearest exit now. What a low-life she is.

The question is what could possibly fill his 1000 pages? Probably a lot since the media has totally failed to do their job about their darling candidate.

Here is some quick oppo research on McCain.

1. He will appoint judges to overturn a woman's right to choose.

2. He will continue the Bush tax cuts and the war in Iraq, prolonging deficits, increasing the number of wounded and killed American soldiers who are policing a civil war, and further deepening the recession.

3. He won't support a move to universal health care coverage.

People who allow themselves to be distracted from the things that really matter in their lives deserve the government they get.

If there is anything out there that is truly damaging to Obama it would have come out already. Dems are just as good at finding out dirt and Hilary would have used it. Obama knew that Iraq was a money/power scam and stated his views from the begining, against the popular wave.

MSNBC and Russert have shown a complete lack of professionalism. It is an embarrassment.
Obama's attitude that he is already the nominee is very dismissive to the other half of the Democratic party that voted for Senator Clinton. I guess he doesn't think he needs the votes of Clinton supporters. He has also blocked a re-vote in Fl. I guess he doesn't need the voters in FL either. We are pretty tired of Obama's efforts to end this primary prematurely. I think it is very shortsighted of Obama and superdelegates to not respect Senator Clinton and her extremely loyal supporters. They will need us if they expect to have a Democrat in the White house. We have already watched our candidate endure relentless media bias and vile behavior from Obama supporters. Most of are not in the mood to support Obama. He says he is confident he can win over Clinton supporters-not this one. Apparently I am not alone. Russert and MSNBC have so offended Clinton supporters, they are ruining Obama's chances for success in the general.

If the Repubs tell you, hey, we are not only going to put you in more financial trouble by not bailing you out from predatory lending, credit card rates that do not come close to matching the feds, reversing row v wade. They already reversed in escence brown v education. We are going to continue to lie about global warming, arms prolifiration in Russia, and China. And, the biggie, Osama Bin Laden is probably dead.

If you followed the link posted by Paul F. Villarreal above in an earlier post, you will see why this needs to end. The next three weeks will only serve to entrench the polarization of persons that WANT THE SAME THING. A Democratic President. The contest has taken place. The winner is close. This is the time to ralley together, not find more reasons to fracture. Why do you think Rush Limbaugh is so happy. He could cause this if he wanted to, but he sure enjoys it. Listen to what the Republicans are saying. Even Morning Joe is saying the Democrats find a way to ruin it when a vitory looks easy; Bush vs Kerry. If Clinton got the nod, I doubt Obama would act this way.

Forget the supports and what we say and do, we are arm chair quarterbacks. We are allowed to be emotional and half cocked. We're Americans Dang-it! But our leaders should lead, especially when the two should represent the same values if not the same plan. No, I don't think that she should quit. But, the continuing to tear down to build up, is only tearing down now.

It's like the quote "The beatings will continue until moral improves." Any good politician knows when to change tactics. I think it is time for Clinton to do the same. If she REALLY wants to continue and have a legitimate chance of stepping in if Obama is hit by a bus, figurative, not literal, she needs to play the role of a team player, and not the spoiled star that insists on taking the game winning shot.

Presumably Obama could have used the material in the 1200 pages on Hillary but chose not to,preferring to take the high road. The conservative talk show hosts will fire every possible salvo at Obama, but can they do it without appearing racist and ignorant and taking the low road? Perhaps they have learned in this new cable surfing climate that if they represent a range of intelligently presented views Obama supporters will frequently land on their shows and stay a while.
