DB you keep giving me more and more information to digest about the candidates in the up coming election. Thank you so much for all your efforts.

So John Kerry's wife has virtually no interest in HJ Heinz and its operations and Treehouse is a subsidiary of Dean Foods.

I like to check things out when I have questions. It's just a thang I do :)

Virtually. But...... I am sure there are a few folks around there that know her. Perhaps a few old friends in high places with influence. Both Obama's attended Harvard in Mass.

Kerry, Kennedy, = Massachusettes.

All the stuff I have been posting all week long has been Republican type spin. I'm looking for things that can potentially be blown out of proportion and turned into Willie Horton's for Barack. I've been playing the seven degrees of Kevin Bacon using Barack Obama instead of Bacon to see how easy it will be for them to find things that look like they might smell funny. I am not very happy with what I have found. I'm looking for things that they will use as potential "candidate death". One of Hillary's biggest draws in this case is that the skeletons are out of the closet so to speak. His are just starting to come out. The Treasurer of Illinois, Rezko. There are two things Chicago is known for.

The Bears and Corrupt Politicians. I am trying to show everybody how easy it is to find stuff that smells bad because they are far outdoing me as we speak. But they won't come up with empty maybes. I'm looking for things that may or may not be real. Remember when John McCain lost South Carolina because Karl Rove spread the rumor that he impregnated a black prostitute and had a baby? He lost that Primary and therefore the Nomination. I have great fear that is going to happen to Barack. I am firing friendly bullets over his head. I will back him 100 percent if he gets the nomination. I will take my Hillary signs down and put his up. Unless he handles himself the way I have been seeing. The other night I posted a spin about him being a sexist. Only one or two people even noticed that I said "I am going to spin something".

So Hillary just got 100,000 more votes than the Republican candidate in Florida but the news guys, who favor Barack strongly keep saying it doesn't count so why bother. It was a Republican Primary. No delegates, but I think the people who voted think their votes actually do count. Barack says it doesn't count but he got 200,000 less votes than she did. That's with only half the precincts in.

I can certainly appreciate that you are 'working the crowd' like a Ratpublican. But you are a truthful and honest person so reading these without a big disclaimer up top can lead people in certain directions (just like those slimeballs who do this for a living). You ain't a slimeball! But sometimes people don't take the time to think which is how we end up with Shrubs all over the place.

bleh.
Oooh! Did you hear that guy on Diane Rehm Show a few days ago? I don't know his name - probably should look it up - but he is one of those politico slimeball "hitmen" - the ones who research and dig up dirt for "the party." Oh. my. god. That man was a complete jackass with the ethics of a measle. His reasoning was that he just found the information and turned it over and it wasn't his responsibility at all about what happened after that.

Sleaze. grrrr...
CC- this was purely hypothetical and from a dirty point of view. I am trying to see how Barack will pass the smell test. Read what snoringKatZ wrote and read the links. There isn't really a connection. But I am sure they will imply it and once it's out it's hard to reel back in. That is my problem with Barack. Too much risk. Hillary just beat him by 200,00 votes in Florida and his supporters are already e-mailing me telling me it doesn't count. Her vote alone were more than South Carolina and she beat the Republican by 100,000 votes so far. So, she is electable and can beat the Republican. They still try to beat her down and say Florida doesn't count but it decided the last elections. She beat everybody and I'm happy for her. I am going to watch how he handles this and see how ugly he makes it. How he handles it will directly impact my feelings about him. Politics are tough and i just think she can take the heat better. They are pretty similar in what they believe though so both are great people and great representatives of all of us.

They use half their campaign contributions doing this stuff. I'm playing devil's advocate and I keep telling people that and that I would vote for him if he's nominated. I prefer her but they're pretty close in what they believe. I just think she can take it better. It hurts his feelings and you can't let that happen and be President.

I saw another guy like that on another show and he described actual stuff he uncovered and how they spun it into defeat for several different candidates. Don't hate me but that's where I got the idea to do this. I try to make it unbelievable and correct people who do believe it. I try to keep reminding everybody that I would vote for him also. I have so much more on the other side. I'm not going to do much more of it though because I think a few of my friends are taking it harder than I mean it. Tongue in cheek is being taken as knife in back. I just get so pissed at the coverage.

I just get so pissed at the coverage.

I totally understand. Everything is filtered and repackaged and it gives such a skewed picture. One thing I would love to see is a ban of voting results reporting until all polls are closed. That includes national elections. People in California shouldn't be affected by how people in Maine voted, you know? It used to take months to get election results spread. I'm not so sure that was a bad thing.

Keep fighting the fight for open eyes! Yer awesome!!!
[this is good]
Sounds sorta like the Haliburtion crowd.
