So far, since the end of the primaries, his votes and his words have only moved me farther away.  

He could have voted as Clinton did on FISA.

He could have spoken out as Clinton did on Bush's outrageous further inroads on women's reproductive rights.

But instead, I found out that my daughter is supposed to consult her husband and minister on such matters.  My daughter isn't married.  But her minister is very cool.  Still, I would rather that my daughter and her doctor decide on her health.

Now, they're not for him anymore.  Can you argue that Clinton wooed them away from him?  At the very time that she, alone of any of the other candidates, has been out there working hard for him?

Unless Hillary comes out and speaks directly to those angry supporters who simply can't stand the thought of voting for Obama.

I see this as another Hillary is not doing enough...talking point.

Hillary is not on the ticket--Barack is.

If he wants to be president, no one is going to be able to hold his hand to win those voters over but him...

Clinton supporters (at least those that I know) don't think that Clinton was "passed over" because she "told the truth."   They think its because Obama doesn't want to share the spotlight with her.  

To me, what is most interesting about this ad is that it makes no sense in terms of the Biden "not ready" ad.  (Biden was picked despite the fact that he 'told the truth').  Team McCain is throwing the kitchen sink at Obama -- Obama was on the ropes, and the Biden pick was a desperate attempt to change the narrative, and convince voters that his hubris and inexperience would not lead to disaster... that Obama will listen to "his elders" rather than drive us off a cliff because he's arrogant and doesn't know anything.

Bashing that constantly distracts from the campaign, creates mutual distrust, keeps animosities alive, and is MUCH more harmful to Obama than any one ad.

Obama supporters keep getting rolled by this GOP tactic again and again and again.

If this list came from a recent Obama criticism of McCain -- rather than your own analysis (or Team Obama's gambit to whip "Clinton supporters" in line) -- why has Obama spent months shamelessly sucking up to the very anti- human rights faction that has advanced this odious agenda the hardest?

I'm not talking about a RW spinbot working the latest media spin cycle here but fanatics working for DECADES to persecute extra-judicially people who access their inalienable constitutional rights.

And why did Obama himself, and his insiders, deride, trivialize and dismiss people who have historically opposed the very agenda you listed as unnecessary for his GE win (as voters) and his platform?

It does Obama no good when he or his supporters go after McCain for positions that Obama actually endorsed for the short-term gain of presenting himself as the post-partisan Uniter we've been waiting for.

Well, we never included me or millions of other diehard opponents of that agenda, of course.

But actually, in your comment, you are perpetuating sexist stereotypes:  "trying to get them to vote based on their emotions (anger), rather than their rational selves(policies)."

Do you really see us wimmins as so easy to manipulate?  McCain is doing the same tricks Repubs have always done, to both genders.  So much of voting is emotional for everyone.  And Lord knows we've heard the wonderful gushing stories of Obama conversions from men and women who support Obama.  Isn't that emotional?

didn't bother to address the fact that the SC ruled that BC pills don't need to be carried on formularies.

helped create the loophole that caused BC pills costs to rise on campuses.

You better play a better game then the one you're playing.

But we were Clinton voters, so we understand you guys very well, too.  Not to worry.  If McCain wins, it won't be with voters who were for Clinton.

But if Obama loses, it will be without voters who were for Clinton but just don't vote at all.

But he hasn't.  He's made almost no inroads since the primary ended.

From the ticker:

Hillary Clinton will meet with her primary delegates Wednesday - and will likely release them to Barack Obama at the event, CNN confirms.

This is me doing micro work for Obama.

McCain agents like you are not welcome in my threads.

I am serious. You are banned from my threads.

Why? because I say so.

I admit they are quick to respond.  Obama's Celebrity ad was certainly timely enough.  The only thing they needed to finish it was the crowds in Germany footage.

Heck, this may be an adaptation of the ad that was going to go if Clinton had been the VP pick.

If I were Kaine, Bayh, Sibelius, et al., I would be very worried come re-election time.  Their state GOPS already got faxed the oppo research on them by the McCain camp, you can bet.  And the ads.  Easily adapted with a tweak of the script and a new voiceover.  It takes only minutes to do -- and minutes to transmit to those state GOPs.
