President Barack Obama and Democratic gubernatorial candidate Mary Burke in the overflow room




Found on The Obama Diary http://theobamadiary.com/

I love you BOG! You are all so amazing! You have stood by this President and taken his back.

Guess who did it today, the woman that many here want to use to bash Obama. My Senator, Elizabeth Warren. Oh you have to watch the video at my link! She was on fire and she sure as hell wasn't bashing Obama.

never mind the link I left was correct, yet Elad said we had a glitch. All my links from last night are gone.

He explains it here

It is time to vote! Let's do it!

President Obama spoke at a campaign rally with Democrats running for office in Wisconsin, including gubernatorial candidate Mary Burke.

See that brisk jog up the steps!

Then he even gave her a kiss!

Mary Burke: Running From Obama, Wrong for Wisconsin

Published on Jan 30, 2014

By Wisconsin GOP!

While Governor Walker put the people of Wisconsin before politics and met with the President yesterday, millionaire Mary Burke was more than 200 miles away.

All the insults to Democrats and the President for being dumb with campaigns:

I just shudder to think what it'd be like under a second term of mccain/palin, or the first term of romney/ryan.

Dear God! I don't even wanna think about it!

We dodged a bullet both times. Yet for me, it was not even close. I read and I listened. You could feel the ground swell in 2008. I was not here then. Yet, I knew. Sure call me crazy, yet I knew he was going to win. Same for 2012 and I was here for that. Again I knew he was going to win. I always knew it calimary, never a doubt in my mind.

There was something happening here...I knew~

11. Yes, it's too bad there are Dems in States who think they have to run from the President to win,

MontyPow.. but, I'm thinking the President understands the dynamics and just wants them to win.

We definitely don't want to suppress the VOTE here in the Barack Obama Group.

The Middle East would be up in flames, and we'd have 20,000 cases of Ebola before McCain did anything about it.

Incredible!!
People will wait in line for hours to catch a glimpse of this president.

And to think, this is in Wisconsin! Where they have had to endure Scott Walker's bs for years!!
Gawd I hope the people of Wisconsin can throw out that bum!!!

Walker is a worse governor than Governor Rick Perry of Texas, who goes to court on Friday, by the way!!

The hell with those that say he has lost his base. Doubt they were his base to begin with.

Yup, I sure hope they kick Koch owned Scott Walker out of his job! Obama is taking this seriously to be there campaigning for Mary Burke. Kudos to Mary, kick Walker's ass to hell where he belongs.

I think we can make some real progress on Tuesday. We need to vote. I have been reminding everyone I know and a few that I don't. We have a Governor to elect here as well and I sure as hell do not want us to have a GOP Governor again! Yes, it's a tight race. Sadly the Boston Globe endorsed the COP candidate Baker.

Good to see you Major
