Junior To Obama: "You Have To Win Indiana"

Harold Ford, Jr. raises expectations for Barack Obama:

From that perspective, and in the wake of Hillary Clinton's win in the Pennsylvania primary, Ford just set a political bar for the black politician that surpassed him in prominence.

"You have to win Indiana," Ford told Barack Obama (via an interview on MSNBC). And, Ford added, Obama has to "steamroll" Clinton in the other state with a primary two Tuesdays from now, North Carolina.

The Obama camp will not publicly embrace that equation. But for him to truly regain the momentum he captured during his February surge, most party pros will see Ford's formulation as spot-on.

Your weblog happens to be not just informative but also very stimulating too. There are a limited number of people who are capable of writing articles with this creatively.
I am looking for information regarding this topic. I went through several websites and blogs to find knowledge for this but no luck.
I will keep coming back !!

Wow... Obama's brainwashed

Wow...

Obama's brainwashed hordes are starting to really scare me

I know people usually wax enthusiastic on their candidate but these people treat this guy like he's the coming of the Messiah

He says simple platitudes that are easy for the braindead and simple to absorb (4 legs good, 2 legs bad, anyone?)

God's speed, Senator Obama.

God's speed, Senator Obama. And watch your footing with all the slime being painted onto the field.
Fight on!

When asked who they would vote for in the general election for president of the United States, the natural pendulum swing in America is approximately 79% of Republicans named Hillary Clinton as their choice. Reasons for Obama's Campaign Crisis "GLORK" Campaign Crisis include:

Sen. Obama accepted more money from oil company executives last month than any other candidate, while he ran an ad saying he didn't take money from oil companies. Context of ad extends that oil money taken by IL Sen. Barrack Obama from BIG HALIBURTAN spells bad MO-Jo for Obama Campaign Crisis and RX U.S. stock x-change -- VX U.S. economy. Sen. Obama's giveaways to the oil industry are not limited to tax breaks. They also include provisions like royalty relief that are worth billions. And many of the tax "increases" are simply extensions of existing taxes that do not impose any additional burden on oil companies. Exactly half of giveaways were not tax provisions. For instance, the oil companies received billions in royalty waivers. Obama voted for Big Oil -- BIG HALLIBURTAN Dick Cheney's 2005 energy bill containing "billions in dollars in giveaways to the oil companies." For example:
Sections 344-345
Waives royalty payments for drilling for some natural gas in the Gulf of Mexico.

Section 346
Waives royalty payments for drilling in offshore Alaska.

Sections 353-4
Waives royalty payments for gas hydrate extraction on the Outer Continental Shelf and public land in Alaska.

Section 383
Allows oil companies drilling in federal land off the coast of a particular state to pay the state 44 cents of every dollar it would have paid to the federal government for the privilege of drilling on federal land.

"Sen. Barack Obama continued accepting donations from oil company executives and employees last month even as he aired ads in which he stated he took no oil company money, his campaign finance reports show. Obama has taken at least $263,000 from oil company executives, family members and employees since entering the presidential race last year, including $46,000 last month. At least $140,000 has come in chunks of between $1,000 and $2,300, the maximum permitted under federal law." [LA Times, 4/24/08]

"Obama has more holes in him than Swiss-Cheese." [CNN

Michelle Obama should be ashamed.

"GLORK" Michelle Obama should be ashamed of her separatist-racist connection to Farrakhan and Chicago's Trinity United Church trumpeting Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama as the second coming of the messiah. Beneath that Darth-Vader-Mace-Windu-Jedi-Me ssiah Helmet Hairdo of Michelle Obama lurks a Wildabeast. If Michelle Obama new what her husband -- the Hope-A-Dope, Fonster Monster -- Barack Obama AKA Barack Hussein Obama did in Harlem, she would wash her wide-open, Hus-suey loving MUSILM mouth out, with twenty-four (24) mule-team double-cross X-boX-BorraX. The Lexis-Nexis-Albatross-Abacus-Complex of Barack and Michelle's relationship with MUSLIM "PATWANG-FWEEE" Rev. Wright, Louis Farrakhan, and black demagoguery of Obama's Stump Lines Echo Malcolm X; is about as much of a Hoax as Oxfam volunteers believe in HIV-- AIDS Witch Doctors in Africa they feed.
"God damn America" - Jeremiah Wright and Barack Obama.
"God bless America" - Pope Benedict XVI and Hillary Clinton --
Michelle Obama AKA Wildabeast -- failed the Illinois Bar Exam. If Barack Obama had married Shaniqua instead of the leftist-separatist-racist-beast-'ist Michelle, his jackanapes' excitedly-fixed-elitism, Nemet-Oure-Saxas-Our-Father-Our-King-- black rage, and "GLORK" black demagoguery of Obama's Stump Lines Echo Malcolm X; would be taken a lot more expeditiously. Its expected that Obam will manage his explosive MUSLIM JIHADI -- FATIMA EXTREMISM obsession bitter. He is a MUSLIM "Glork" It

WoW J.R. good to hear from

WoW J.R. good to hear from you been wondering where you were hiding. Are you running for President?? Here is a quote from a story/link on Obama and lobbyist....
"Obama gets points for acknowledging that the line he is attempting to draw is a vague one, and that all presidential candidates are tainted by their frantic efforts to raise money. "The argument is not that I'm pristine, because I'm swimming in the same muddy water [as the other candidates]," he told reporters in Iowa, back in August. "The argument is that I know it's muddy and I want to clean it up.""

and another part
"neither Edwards nor Obama have knowingly accepted campaign contributions from federally registered lobbyists, so that claim is technically correct."
Personally I think is it bad to allow attacks on small issues when we have bigger issues to deal with.
Bloated unwatched Pentagon budget
Bridges callapsing
Water crisis
Nature crisis
Energy crisis
Inflation/recession/distrust/dislike of our Economy and Government
It really is the Economy 'Stupid' That is what we sends troops around the world for.
It is not Democracy it is Free markets, but the problem now is the rest of the world is adapting to us the U.S.A. but the U.S.A is lagging in adapting to the rest of the world. The new markets emerging from still Communist run countries or economies of dictator ruled countries are playing the market and it is the Americans who have always been there to help out (Mexico, Brazil) that are taking a beating. American stands for what it always has stood for.
Obama has never changed his message, he is true to himself, true to his country and true to his constituents. That is what I want in my President.

What needs to be done is for

What needs to be done is for America to focus on the issues and task that lay ahead. The fact is that this is America of Today, not yesterday, not years ago, not anything other than Today's America... We need to look forward at what needs to be accomplished and lay a plan to get there. This is exactly up Obama's "alley" this is what he is actually good at. He will be a uniter and a negotiator.. this is his resume...

Jimmy, Jr. ain't touchin' King Willie's throne. Oh, the Fords will have their man/woman in the ring next time, but like you sid, it would be a step down for the golden boy. I have no doubt they've mapped his future running through the mansion in Nashvagas. After all, everyone knows that Governors have a better track record for the White House in recent history.

I would have voted for Ford

I would have voted for Ford against Corker if it would not have been a proxy vote for the far-left Democratic party leadership to control congress.

I like the guy... he's sharp. I hope he shows up in a race I can support him in. I probably wouldn't mind him as Governor (TN) but I'd be wary of his lack of executive experience. Memphis needs a new mayor though and he'd be a huge improvement over that mess; though a step down from his current national posture.

And that was Maureen Dowd
