Hillary Clinton win's election for Obama

[Jhhnn]

Righties are in a state of denial about the whole thing- no surprise there.

Repubs have been good at winning elections and lousy at actually governing.

What they've delivered has been a trainwreck, something no amount of sloganeering, outrage mongering or knee-jerk emotional pitchmanship can hide.

Given a clear mandate in the wake of 9/11, they used it to facilitate an orgy of greed at the top. The reason that none of their campaign slime works is that they squandered their credibility in the process.

Hillary did facilitate the Obama campaign by mimicking repub tactics early on, destroying the timing and impact of the usual slime-slinging.

Thanks, Hillary, and thanks for your honest support of Obama and other Dems since then.

The McCain campaign is just a symptom of the general disarray in the repub machine- he's not the only one who's losing- far from it.

For years the Democrats tried to run as Republicans. This time McSenile tried to run as an agent of change.

The beauty of running against Government is that you become the Government and lose.

Obama is the hope we have been waiting for. The brain dead have no hope.

Had McCain run those Rev. Wright ads months ago it would have had a much more damaging effect. Hillary had nothing to do with McCain's own campaign incompetence.

If McCain had run those ads earlier it would have given Obama supporters time to point out that what Wright said was far less controversial than what Hagee, Robertson, and Falwell have said.

Yep. I don't understand why people think McCain's campaign would have been more effective if only it could have pulled out some new negative attack angle. What McCain needed to do all along was give people a reason to vote for him, and not just reasons why they shouldn't vote for the other guy.

There weren't any such reasons.
