The Return Of Obama's Chicago-Style Destruction-Based Politics!

The sudden polling surge, representing as much as a 17 point bump, for John McCain has exposed the shady underbelly of the Obama Campaign. Senator Obama did not rise to power as a change candidate; he has never won an election in which his opponent has not suffered being personally destroyed and forced from the race; and it seems in the past two weeks that Obama is returning to his Chicago Political Machine roots.

Let me take you back to Senator Obama's first campaign, for the State Senate in Illinois. Obama was approached by ...

I have always been concerned about ‘Arkancide’. Maybe we need to worry about Chicagocide. Someone has always seen to it that the opponents are gone.

McCain is a nsty muslim sexist - he’s losing soooo badly that he is going negative BIG time.

Resume of: B HUSSEIN OBAMA

1.) COLB
Proven fake by more than one source
2.) Sketchy childhood
We know some details - Lots of gaps - muslim?
3.) College thesis has vanished
Was it anything like Michele’s?
4.) Overseas travel
Pakistan? Why? On what passport?
5.) Law records
What cases did he represent?
6.) Senate records disappeared
What was he trying to hide?
7.) Associations
Rev Wright, Ayers, Rezko, Michele etc.
8.) Senate voting record
That speaks for itself
9.) SCOTUS
Who would his choices be?
10.) Proven Liar
11.) Inexperience
12.) Racist, Sexist, Radical, Marxist views

His judgement in the people he associates with and his radical/marxist views scare the hell out of me.

Obama now leads in Rasmussen's and WSJ's polls. I don't think his tactics are necessarily backfiring. If anything, it seems to have stopped the movement to McCain camp. Expect more of same or worse.

Wow, I lived in Chicago during this Senate race and wondered how in the world he won that. The unknown but I forgot about the dirty politics. This is a good read and the difference is now he has met a REAL candidate without a lot of baggage for Obama to try and destroy...McCains record is already out there. By going after Gov. Palin he is really losing it. She’s tough and will handle it but Obama’s day will come soon. And I will look forward to seeing him slither back to Chicago with his RAT tail between his legs with his RAT wife Michelle.

I think you mean Obama....

Good article. But I would add one thing. Obama took no chances when Keyes entered the race. Shortly before the election, personal info about Keyes’ daughter was released to the press. No matter how poorly he ran his campaign, he and his family didn’t deserve what Team Obama did. Neither did Jack Ryan (who I supported) or Blair Hull.

He went against Bobby Rush for his House seat - his only defeat as he snaked up the electoral ladder in IL.

I was born and raised in Chicago, moved to Dupage County in my late twenties until my move to TN. Chicago politics is dragging the whole state down.

This is a surprise? Obama started as a Daley Thug Machine head-breaker. One rumor has it he is an unindicted co-conspirator in several cases. His license to practice law in IL has been “inactivated.”

YEP, READ TWO POSTS FROM THAT ONE FOR THE CORRECTION

Good article and info on how Obama got as far as he has. The dem. bloggers threw everything, including the kitchen sink, the first week of the Palin pick. Her speech at the convention blew it all off the table. Using the lipstick on a pig comment will only be more fodder for the McCain/Palin’s next stop.

Great summary of Obama’s political past. I used to get so upset with President Bush 41 when Clinton would call him “Mr. Bush” and there was no response. I kept saying it looks like President Bush is tired and hoping to lose. I made that same comment about McCain in mid-August, but now they have Youtube rebuttals within hours of an Obama gaffe, jab, etc. and all the news outlets are playing their online ads for “free air time”. This is truly masterful. The only concern is they have to be careful not to cry foul over every little thing. In early October (after the VP debate) I hope they have a strong lead and begin to pay less attention to Obama and start helping us gain seats in Congress. If I am interpreting the rules correctly... Obama is raising money mostly for Obama. McCain is raising money for the RNC which can be used to help him and other RNC candidates.
