Obama's Campaign Manager Getting Cocky
Posted by: Mary Katharine Ham at 12:51 PM
Well, this is a change from Obama's "Remember New Hampshire" line of yesterday.

Today, his campaign manager is addressing their opponent's chances with considerably less grace:
"They said that they would have huge gains on March 4," Plouffe said. "They’re going to fail and fail miserably. "
Really, now? That doesn't sound like the politics of positive thinking. David Plouffe should remember New Hampsire, too, lest the campaign find itself with nothing but a lost opportunity and a pair of britches several sizes too big. As we've seen all year, voters don't take kindly to too much arrogance from the front-runner.

Didn't see
the Ingraham thing but I did see plenty of John McCain and Rev. Hagee. I am a practicing Catholic and John McCain lost my vote today. Same with Huckabee who expressed his dismay at not receiving Rev. Hagee's endorsement. Sad day for me, but it's good to know where the Republican party stands in terms of Catholicism. Catholics have been standing up for "right to life" issues and this is the thanks we get?

Creepy Howard Gutman
should remain behind the scenes. Laura Ingraham asked him direct questions tonight and he slithered around and never answered them. How long do they think they can fool the public on Barack HUSSIEN Obama's LIBERAL positions? He is the most liberal in the Senate. Howie wouldn't lisp a truthful reply to Laura on anything she asked.

Scared?
I would gather that you are. Senator Obama's time has come and it is quite clear that Senator Clinton is fading in the polls, so the Obama camp has some legitimacy in saying this.

Same with Senator McCain. Between his dalliance with a lobbyist, and granting favors for other lobbyists - against his own McCain-Feingold bill - and cozying up to Hagee, one of the most hateful, divisive religious leaders out there, his time is past as well. And that's after one figures that an old man with anger issues, riding the same tired mule as Bush has for the past seven years on everything from staying the course in Iraq to keeping the tax cuts for the wealthy (which Mccain was actually AGAINST once upon a time) is the best the GOP can do.
