Deliverance

Sen. Barack Obama made ads endorsing Bill Foster for the Illinois Rep. position vacated by former House Speaker Dennis Hastert, and Foster beat his Republican opponent. Not only does this show that, as orrg1 puts it, "Clinton Talks, Obama Delivers", but this is Obama's first victory against McCain, who endorsed the GOP candidate.

Obama is once again up over Clinton in one of the usual polls. He campaign: squabblers.

Amazing article by ex-Clinton financial staffer who switched to Obama after the Clinton campaign tried to steal her money. She writes of Hillary's main line of offense:
I think Barack Obama can win the so called big states like Caliorfonia, NY and NJ during the general election. Dems will gladly vote for the affable uniter and fighter Obama...The Clinton argument that she won the big states and that is why she should be the corinated nominee is what I call in my line of work

-a false cause argument...

For the first time, in the south and west -so called small, medium, and big size states (and in every region of the country) are turning out an unprecedented number of Dem voters and a colorful future....In Wyoming a % of Rep and Indep could easily go for Obama in the general...More than Hillary will capture for sure.

Where the states have no names. In the context of the big picture and in the fullness of time: we are the United States of America.
And she notes, of Hillary and Bill saying all weekend that Obama would be a great VP:

For I believe the Clinton camp knows deep down (most definitely unconsciously) that Hillary on top is a TINDERBOX waiting to happen and during the entire course of the general election.

Barack Obama is not going to take the Clinton offer to be be Hillary's VP. -This good cop / bad cop baiting is insulting to the intelligence and sensitivities of the electorate and defies credulity.

Former Senator Tom Daschle said this morning on Meet The Press: "Until the Clinton's shouted out the Obama VP proposal, I, have never ever heard of in our entire history: the number two candidate running for President smugly offering the Vice Presidency to the clear front runner -Barack Obama!


Andrew Sullivan says to nervous Obama supporters, just chill out:

Obama has essentially won this thing already. He should use the next few weeks to demonstrate what a tough campaigner he can be; to broaden his appeal as he has done in every major primary as the campaign has gone on. The good news about the kitchen sink is that you can only throw it once. He just won Wyoming after being battered by a barrage of negativism and refusing to throw a much larger kitchen sink back. He should now focus on Mississippi. And on reality.

The Clintons just got into our heads. We need to get them out. Keep going; keep focused; remind people why only Obama can provide change in a way the Clintons never have and never will.


Don't be confused.

Thanks Nettertainment. Now I can breath a sigh of relief. As a non tv watcher who's been subjected to it lately, I was worried. Somehow all of those talking heads are making this seem like it's a close race and Hillary is doing that thing that the kids do now: act like you are it and you are! She's greazzzzyyy....
