| | | It's Time for Obama to Bow Out of Race! The nation is talking greatly now and has decided that Obama, who is left of Hillary Clinton on most things important to Americans, is simply unelectable. After her victorious win in Pennsylvania, Hillary has apparently more than convinced people across the nation that she would make a better president than Obama and the nation is now agreeing with her! In fact, she is now even beating McCain! If Obama truly wants to get a Democrat as president in the Oval Office by next January, he should gracefully bow out of the race now and save the party from further struggles! This trend can only continue with Hillary winning more and more support and even the superdelegates who are now seriously looking at her!

| In the US Obama and the Democrat nomination pretty much dominates "current events" . The fact is that there was a news story out yesterday that sky linked to . Bobby effectively countered his point with a counterpoint with a supporting link .
The Rev Wright is "current events " again because he has been all over the media in a pre- book tour and because he is not about to blow his 15 minutes of fame.
The article I linked to involving Obama's questionable hiding of income during his days a an Ill. Senator was reported by the LA Times Sunday ....again "current events" .
I will remind everyone that we are pretty much prohibited from posting these on the "Politics" board because we do not end our posting with a ? . So where else should these discussions be posted ? |

| Tom,
It's the sheer number I guess. Perhaps it could all be merged into one thread. |

| The buzz is what is created by people who don't care about the issues. The reverend and the grandma are red herrings. Apparently Obama is untouchable on the issues. Kudos to him. |

Kudos to him. | Considering the thousands of times I've read and heard the complaints that "Bush lied," the 2006 Democratic campaign against the alleged "Republican culture of corruption," the endless congressional investigations of the Bush administration since the Dems gained the majority in Congress, and that Obama himself said he would " immediately review the information" of possible crimes in the Bush administration should he get elected - I thought character and manufactured 'buzz' were important to the left. |

| Tom- you flip-flop or triangulate as often as the Republicans and Democrats. You went after Obama for not dissociating himself with Rev Wright, now say he through him under the bus. |

| well tell me Bobby ....was he just doing what a politician does today when he flip flopped on the Right rev ? or when was he telling the truth ? When he said that he had not heard the controverial things the rev said ;or when he said he could no longer disassociate himself from the rev than he could from the black race ? or today when for political expediency he ripped the rev a new one ?
The whole point is that his early claim to the campaign ;that he was somehow above the fray has been totally exposed as a fiction in the last month.
Now that we know that he is not this transformational superman ;but instead just another Dem with positions not much different than his other Dem opponent ;the final issue for the Dem campaign is electability . |
