Very good news for Republicans, politically.
This is probably not going to be a definitive campaign-killer, but at least it is likely to be effective in achieving dirt-parity when it comes down to McCain vs Obama. McCain has a long and vulnerable track record otherwise vis-a-vis Obama, which was one of my major worries with respect to this match-up.
McCain has no worries vs Clinton of course. Any dirt on McCain could have been called and raised anytime.
Barack Hussein Obama is a very dangerous charlatan. He was elected to the US Senate under dubious means that involved the release to the MSM of previously sequestered divorce records that undermined his opponent. This left-wing radical is not what the guilt-ridden white liberals think he is. His election would drive the US into the ground economically and make it open season on Americans everywhere for the islamic jihadis. It is the duty of all people who care for the US to drive this message home to folks considering voting for this fraud.
Did Saddam Figure's Millions Influence Obama? (There's more to Rezko than just slumlording...)
“Obama has indicated willingness to end federal oversight of the Teamsters [& gets Hoffa endorsement]” ~ Robert Novak 2/23/08 [Crumbling Ohio Firewall]

The television above the bar at Chris’ Place was filled with the talking heads of various politicians who hope they will one day soon be anointed to carry their party’s standard in November.
Phil the Teamster, who is scrupulous about having a cold one only after all his deliveries have been made and his rig safely back in the yard, held up some exotic brew to eye level and gazed at one of the heads though a reddish haze.
“I have never voted for a Republican in my life,” said Phil. “But if Barack Obama wins the Democratic nomination, I am voting for John McCain.”
The bar, never a particularly noisy place, went as silent as death.
We knew Phil was a Hillary Clinton sort of fellow, but we never dreamed he would ever think of pulling the GOP lever under any circumstances. He is strictly an unreconstructed union man.
He’s also no racist. He lives in an integrated neighborhood and judges each person on merit, not pigmentation. So The Senator, whose idea of exotic beer is Old Style in a Miller Lite glass, asked him why.
“He’s a Crook County politician, that’s why,” Phil said. Stan the Bartender mouthed the word “Cook” from behind his unlit cigar.
“I said Crook, and I meant Crook,” Phil said. “This guy is from Chicago. He sounds smooth, and he might have the rest of the country fooled, but he doesn’t fool me. You don’t come from Chicago and go that far that fast without owing somebody something.”
Well, he has been seen palling around with indicted businessman and influence peddler Tony Rezko, who also is a buddy of Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich. But does that make Obama the third person of the Unholy Trinity?
“I’ll tell you another thing,” said Mark the Cop, who was on his usual seat by the door. “If Obama or Hillary get in, that’s the end of any kind of federal investigation into corruption in Northwest Indiana.”
It is local lore that Republican-named U.S. attorneys go after corruption in this county in which Democrats have held every countywide office since 1931 and Democrat-named U.S. attorneys have other priorities, let us say.
No one denies this. The Republicans say they come in to clean house. The Democrats say the Republicans come in to impose a political agenda.
Phil judges McCain the way he does other people, on merit. A Vietnam vet, Phil has a soft spot for a guy who spent years as a North Vietnamese POW, even if he is a Republican.
His heart says McCain. His loyalty says Clinton. But his gut says not Obama.

Anglo Arab Organisation President: UK-EU Parliamentary delegation to Lebanon, Syria a success
The UK press will be the hole in the caliph’s ratmedia shield. The British press hates all politicians, especially American.They will cut him into little pieces with no fingerprints of our’s on it.

The spotlight fell on Mr Rezko's ties to Mr Auchi last month when the Chicago businessman was thrown in jail for violating his bail terms by failing to declare a different $3.5 million loan from the British billionaire, made in April 2007. Prosecutors feared Mr Rezko, who travels widely in the Middle East, might flee to a country without an extradition treaty such as his birthplace of Syria.

So Obama has a figure much like Clinton's HSU>>>>
I’ll bet Obama and the Toons have a lot in common. Maybe even some of the exact same people in common.
See #31....
Now that is some good stuff to know...also see #31....
See #31...very interesting....
That'll depend on whether it's his day to be a Democrat or a Republican, doesn't it?
(Oops! Stupid me. He's always a RINO)

He has been on this subject big time on his Sunday evening radio talk show.
