“Part of the issue with West Virginia was, we just didn’t have a lot of time to get there” to campaign, he said. “I’m not well-known there.”
This is the biggest BS lie I’ve ever heard this clown utter. Who in America doesn’t know this bonehead? My 70 year old mother who despises politics knows of Obama, and she told me she’s going to be the first one in line to vote for McCain in November. As to the Repub defeats in Illinois, Louisianna and Mississippi:
Illinois - Oberweis was a terrible candidate for our side, he is our perenial loser in that State, plus that district had Hastert burnout.
Louisianna - Another horrible candidate for our side, he ran one of the worst non-existent media campaigns I’ve ever seen. The dem ran as a pro-life, pro-gun right wing conservative, and he did all he could to distance himself from Obama and Pelosi, he convinced the locals he was not a left wing idealogue in the mold of the aforementioned, and it worked.
Mississippi - We had a great candidate in Mississippi in Davis, but he emerged bloodied after a bitter primary contest. His dem opponent, Childers, ran as far away from Obama and Pelosi as he could, in addition to being as pro-life and pro-gun as Davis. But, in Mississippi Childers was better able to connect with Bubba because after he successfully distanced himself from the lefties we tried to wrap around his neck, he talked about jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. It worked well.
We need to go forward nationally connecting all dem candidates to Obama and his radical policies and friends, but we also need to talk about the economy and jobs and how we’re going to fix it, because if we don’t we’re up sh*t creek without a paddle.
You would think Oberweiss would realize by now that he doesn't have the temperament or personality for politics. He comes across as arrogant and condescending and manages to make enemies by mistake.
