Well, some little kid “working” for the Gap made it, but I colored it in.
Yeah.
In an article oh so cleverly titled “Oh, Yes She Can”, Hillary stalker Kristen Breitweister threatens reminds us that Hillary could still, in theory, lose this election for the Democrats:
The Superdelegates have not yet voted. They cast their vote at the Convention in August which means Hillary Clinton’s “suspended” campaign could be reinstated. (Because, Oh, Yes She Can!)
Of course, this reality is probably why the Republicans have remained mostly silent against Obama since they’d rather run against Obama than Hillary. The Republicans know that a small window remains open for Hillary to get the nomination. And a coup at the Convention is not entirely out of the question– particularly in light of Obama’s recent behavior in thumbing his nose at the Progressive base. Yes folks, it’s not too late.
It’s July 9, 2008. There are 6 weeks left until the convention in Denver. And I think all Americans should be paying close attention to see what Barack Obama does. Does he continue to flounder and move to the center compromising important Progressive principles? Or does he correct his wayward ways?
Firstly, I wasn’t aware that there’s an official group of (capital P) progressives out there, making decisions for all of us starry eyed socialist types. Secondly, she’s implying that the progressive left should push to replace the current candidate (the one who, ya know, got elected) with a former Wal-Mart board member who voted for the Iraq War, loves lobbyists like family members, and takes shitloads of cash from health insurance and mortgage companies.
Yeah, let’s get right on that.
UPDATE
Jesus fucking christ people, I get it, you feel burnt, but diluting the base like this only contributes to a fucking right wing Republican in the White House.
I’d start defending Obama’s consistency on these issues (except for FISA but what the fuck, can’t win ‘em all), except that this is all bullshit concern trolling from sore losers and people who refuse to accept the reality on the ground. Obama is the only left leaning (as much as you can in this stupid shitty country) candidate, McCain may actually be WORSE than fucking George fucking W. fucking Bush, and those are your fucking choices. Clinton LOST the election, and all of this hand wringing over Obama’s Liberal Street Cred is just chipping away at the base, which is already more cynical than the opposition by virtue of being far more intelligent.
So for fuck’s sake people, get a grip.

Plus I forgot how much Jim Baker sounds like he should be fixin’ him some vittles long ’bout now.

Nicole Belle wonders why Obama is so full of awful ideas
As opposed to, say, the guy he is running against.
Way to be, Crooks and Liars. Keep fighting that good fight. She only SUSPENDED her campaign! She could still win!!!
When will a new Dethklok album be released?
Okay, so Nader’s being a real racist doofus, Obama’s totally trying to make it with the Bible, Chris Dodd got sweatheart loans from Countrywide, Jim Webb is hot for off-shore drilling, Lieberman is totally convinced that he’ll at least get to speak at the RNC if not get to run for VP, Hillary’s taking a nap somewhere or something, and nobody fucking cares that Charlie Black is the goddamned devil.
Oh well, I guess, oh well.
