That speech didn't help Obama one bit.

Your party is full of f.ucktards.

she did okay. i think she loses credibility with the lesbian wing if she comes out any stronger in his favor. she did what she had to for her 2012 or 2016 campaign. no more. no less.

i have to say the keynote put me to sleep other than a fascination with his teeth. they're huge.

i used to think mccain had a lot to overcome. but unless these guys learn to land a punch a republican could win in a year where they carry an unpopular war and bad economy on their back.

still think it's obama's to lose. but starting to have doubts.

she stepped on an applause line.

"my mother was born before a woman could vote for president...but my daughter was able to vote for her mother as president"

or something like that. i couldn't hear because she threw the end out into uproarious applause.

obama would know better.

she did have the one strong line where she talked about some fill in the blank working class folks and then asked her supporter's, "did you do this for me or for them?"

that will have some traction. and both she and obama will need that.

That's the line I was referring to...I found it remarkedly effective in addressing the division we hear about!

my issue with her is she comes across as so inauthentic. listening to her i don't think she cares any more about the working class than dick cheney. she'd say anything to get elected.

she needs to learn to give a speech the same way she talks in a one on one interview. she's pretty good one on one. people notice she sounds different.

obama sounds and looks the same in either format. even if he's a complete fraud he's consistent. and bush sounds like a ****** regardless. but you feel he's genuine.

she's a f'in robot in my mind until she learns to give a speech like she's talking to me and not speaking at me.

I hope not! I have grand kids and I really want to see them live in a better world, I'm cynical at times but still believe we can make that happen...

If you mean economically, I'd agree(somewhat) with your statement. However, this election is very important as far as who gets to be on the Supreme Court. That might be the most important thing a President gets to do. I don't think over 4k Americans would have gotten killed in Iraq (if a Democrat had been in office.) I think our dollar would be worth more than 55% (or whatever it is right now) the value of a Euro(this is a national embarassment.) I think gas prices would be going up as we approach the election(as oil companies lower prices as the election approaches /when a Rep. is in office, and raise them if a Dem. is in office.) You will see gas prices come down steadily as this election approaches( Even if the price of crude doesn't come down)

excuse me! ahem.. as a fellow "les" I will be the first to say this bitch lost all credibility with me in the 90's. If someone told me I could fucl< Scarlett Johannson if I voted for Hillary I still dont know if I could. Well scrap that yes then I'd vote for her. But that is the ONLY way.

I feel Obama is a much better person than Hillary and Obama would make a much better president than her... but I ain't voting for him either! I dont like the repub's but I dislike the dem's even more.
