It's Not the Lie That'll Getcha; It's the Cover-Up

Barack is now being grilled by the likes of Meredith Vieria about his 100-year-war distortion thanks to a take-no-prisoners push-back from McCain, his communications people, and righty bloggers. Nicely done, guys.
Obama, work on your answer. This is not transcendent and uplifting. This is a lie:

It's not the lie that will get you elected it's the money.
McCain is going to get killed in the general election, far more embarrassed than Bob Dole. Yet, here you all are waxing as if there is an actual race on.
So, Mary, why aren't you all blogging about the money difference, eh? Is it because you might have to face reality? Remember Clinton had more votes on Super-Tuesday than all the Republicans combined. And Obama is beating Clinton in votes and Money. And to top it off, no poll predicted that Clinton would get more votes than all Republicans combined on Super-Tuesday.
If you all keep playing as if McCain is in some tight race, he'll get embarrassed at the poles, just like he's getting embarrassed now in fund raising.
--------------------------------
In March, the Obama campaign raised some $40 million, putting their overall total for the quarter in the range of $130 million. The Clinton campaign, which no longer has a particularly easy path to the nomination, raised $20 million in March, raising her total for the year to roughly $70 million. McCain, on the other hand, could only manage to bring in $15 million for the month -- including just $4 million from the grassroots -- moving his overall haul for 2008 to under $40 million. In other words, McCain couldn't raise in three months what Obama was able to raise just this past month alone (a fundraising month that actually represented a decline of more than a quarter from the previous month). Pitting McCain against Clinton, the Republican in three months took in just 70 percent of what the Democrat was able to bring in during just two months.

Yeah, come on Mary! Why aren't you posting more negative topics in your blog? Because it would be totally natural on a conservative blog site to post more negative stuff about conservatives. Disregarding the fact that McCain has sewn up the nomination for a couple months now, why would we send him money now? And is he really going to need that much money to beat whoever wins the democratic nomination? Neither one is qualified to be president. |
