MYDD has become almost intolerable. I will disclose up front that I am an Obama supporter - but if Clinton wins the nomination I will slap a Clinton bumper sticker over my Obama one and work like hell to get her into the White House. I truly think the majority of Clinton and Obama suppor ters feel the same way. The finger pointing - which I think flows from the very top of MYDD - is totally crazy. If Obam.a is the nominee I'm sure they will appreciate that they have to look no farther than this site to do opposition research
That being said I really don't get the bitterness about the Obama campaign? Why the hell is it such a big deal to Jerome and others that people worship Obama? How does it help our party to put so much effort in "debunking" Obama supporters. You know what? people were "frenzied" in their following of Hitler because he was so charismatic - but one could make the same arguments about Martin Luther King Jr., Cesar Chavez, JFK, FDR etc.
How does it help our party to claim that Obama has no ideas of his own, that he is basically a robot for his campaign manager?
According to Mexican Newspaper Universal with 80% of the votes recounted AMLO (Lopez Obrador) now leads Calderon 36.69% to 34.67%
I am afraid I can't read Spanish very well so I won't know much else until my Mexican husband gets home- but since this is getting no press as far as I can tell in the American press I thought people might want to know this exciting news!
