Obama Manager Accuses Clintons of Widespread Dirty Politics (Fraud by Hillary's Campaign)
The Atlantic ^ | 1/20/08

Posted on 01/19/2008 6:27:28 PM PST by nj26

David Plouffe, in a succinct statement appended to a released quotation from his boss, Barack Obama, said the Obama campaign was investigating more than 200 reporters of irregularities in Nevada.

“We currently have reports of over 200 separate incidents of trouble at caucus sites, including doors being closed up to thirty minutes early, registration forms running out so people were turned away, and ID being requested and checked in a non-uniform fashion. This is in addition to the Clinton campaign’s efforts to confuse voters and call into question the at-large caucus sites which clearly had an affect on turnout at these locations. These kinds of Clinton campaign tactics were part of an entire week’s worth of false, divisive, attacks designed to mislead caucus-goers and discredit the caucus itself."Plouffe asks Nevadans to call a toll-free number, (866) 675-2008, and report any other problems.

Obama, for his part, said he "ran an honest, uplifting campaign in Nevada that focused on the real problems Americans are facing, a campaign that appealed to people’s hopes instead of their fears."

Bill and Hillary will be the death of the Democratic party. No, I will not be attending the funeral.

But will you be visiting its grave for purposes we need not mention...???

Can’t you just see this...a first for the Jackass party..a woman for pres and the half black half white Obama for VP..or maybe the other way round...either which way they may think a ticket like this would woo nearly all the nation.

Well, with what the gOP is coming up with, that ticket may have a lot of switchover protest voters, Yech!

But the conservative Republicans are NOT happy.

As a matter of fact, I have never seen such silence on FR.

People are REALLY angry.

That may create the conditions for the Dem Unreality ticket to win.

Whoa! 4 years of living hell! I did 8 with BJ, I can do 4 more!

If it weren’t censorship, I would call for the implementation of a filter that replaced any quote from the Obama campaign with a “Waaaaaaaaaahhh!”

Buck up, O. There's more to come. The Clinton attack machine isn't even warmed up yet.

Yep. They've been doing this for a long time.

Is this what Hilary meant by "spadework"?

“bite your tongue.”

rational, reasonable human beings say bite your tongue. but, the irrational among us will vote hillary! into the whitehouse. they see her as a fighter for humanity.

get ready for really creepy, disgusting, adolescent stuff when hillary! gets elected. the russian revolution will be nothing compared to the brilliant coup of her handlers and her.

America is no longer a sweet land. it is a bitter battleground between the macho socialists and the people who are running out of patience. (one would hope for the macho socialists to grow up, but immaturity is easier than adulthood.) heaven help us.

During Hillary’s press conference she had the worst answers to explain for these accusations and the press just moved along.

This could get VERY interesting, with Hillary pulling all the classic FBD (Fraud by Democrats) against a fellow Democrat, ESPECIALLY a black Democrat. We’re always hearing the Dems whine and moan about disenfranchising blacks; now they’re doing it themselves. Priceless.

The Left screams “fraud” anytime they lose an election.

It’s in the handbook.
