I agree with what you’re saying, but it’s a moot point. There is nothing that FReepers are going to be able to do or say to dampen the media frenzy at this point simply because we’re not the ones instigating it.

I mean, come on folks, this story has been out there for months now. Why all the sudden interest?

I’ve actually lost count of the number of stories about Wright that have popped up all the sudden. Too much, too fast, too widely spread to be coincidence.

It’s pretty obvious to me that Hillary and Bill are calling in a few media markers right now. This has their MO stamped all over it.

As you said: As General George S. Patton said: “Attack, attack, attack, quickly, decisively, shoot and keep on shooting”

I am with you. If we go easy on Obama now and he will be the Dem nominee, it will be hard to go back to this, and if we did, it would look political. We need to have the light of truth shine on Obama.

And the way this election is going, it's very hard to get the answer from a Crystal Ball to find out which Dem would be easier to beat. Obama’s hypocrisy reflects badly on the entire Democrat party.

He is a Trojan Horse — pretending to be a moderate and non-racist, when in fact he is an America-hater, wanting to destroy our country and way of life from within.

In my perspective, Obama and Clinton are political clones of each other in significant respects. In fact, I can substitute Clinton’s name for Obama’s in my anti-Obama posts concerning constitutionally unauthorized federal spending and homosexuality and repost them without compromising accuracy.

The itty bitty attack the New York Slimes put on John Insane (which he could only mouth was disappointing) was but a foretaste of the gorry future. The media will define McLaim in short order, leaving the public to see only an old man with a cancer history and an anti-Republican bent who favors amnesty and the ‘otherside of the isle’. The Keating Five will not even be needed to sink Johnny’s little boat. I fear for my nation!

I disagree ... when you are in a fight, you don’t stop when the other guy is stumbling, you keep hitting him until he cannot get up any longer....then you kick him one more time for good measure.

Right, I agree with you. Matter of fact just this weekend, we have had a number of threads posted by newbies, and I mean they signed on the day they posted the threads.

How many FReepers have you known that posted three threads on the day they signed up?

We are picking up the numerous stories, I suspect a number of the articles were written by Hillary supporters.

Obama is the easier one for McCain to beat. I don't care what polls say right now.

Those of us who have followed politics for a while know the danger of simply dismissing polls out of hand.

I disagree with the premise. It has been very difficlt to get the MSM to report negative stories on BHO. For whatever reason, the SNL skit maybe, this has become acceptable now. But it may again become “not the thing to do”. So this window of opportunity should be taken advantage of.

Further, we may even see the Raili Odinga, Kenya connection, be reported by the MSM.

The idea that we have any say about if and when this information comes out is pure fantasy. Some of this stuff was posted on this site early last year and it went NO WHERE. Hannity has been on this for months and it went NO WHERE. McCain and the GOP would not go near it with a 10 foot pole. The ONLY reason that it is coming out is that Hillary's people are pushing it. It either comes out now, or not at all.

It is possible that Obama is the easier candidate to beat NOW that this is out (along with other questionable stuff). Prior to this he appeared untouchable and even people not afraid of going after him realized that they would face a barrage of racist charges when they did. As it now stands, his halo has been tarnished and Bill and Hillary, along with much of the Dem establishment machinery are the ones facing the racist charges. Because of Obama's lead and proportional representation, it is highly unlikely that Hillary will catch him prior to the convention. That means she has to convince the super delegates to go against the majority of Democratic voters and coronate Hillary despite the wishes of the rank and file. This is a perfect recipe for a nuclear detonation in Denver that will be felt LONG after November.

In the meantime, despite the apparent destruction of Obama, he just picked up some of the delegates from Iowa that were pledged to Edwards and thus further increased his lead over Hillary. He is FAR from dead, so you will just have to excuse me if I am not so attentive to a call for laying off Obama.

Got news for you. This dump on Barack (Redacted) Obama is way bigger than FR, or even Rush Limbaugh could ever make it.

Hillary’s pulling out the big guns now, as everyone has been expecting. As damaging as this might be to Obama, it may not even be the grand finale.

You can’t stop it, best thing to do now is sit back and enjoy the show as this all plays out.

Popcorn, anyone?

It also helps to have one of your enemies do your dirty work for you. I have serious doubts that we could have made a scratch in Obama's teflon coating if Hillary had not went after him.

This stuff needs to be brought out early and often. Last minute gotcha stuff never works with democrats because they own the media.

I totally agree with you. Rush made a mistake. We want Obama to be the nominee. Not only do we get rid of the Clintons, he would be easier to beat.

I believe Clinton could take Ohio in the GE. She made a lot of impact with her rhetoric on “getting things done on the economy”. McCain is weak in that area and Ohio is undergoing a tremendous slowdown. Hillary would run strong with the working class. I don’t think they would go for Obama. Look at how poorly he did in the Ohio exit polls.

It boils down to Ohio, Ohio Ohio. Clinton could win it with Stricklands help. McCain would trounce Obama.
