12. That would be mean.
you asked: am I still on a Democratic site?



I ask myself that everytime I read a post on here by an Obama supporter.

20. We could have Obama, Oprah, Teddy, Kerry, and Murdoch (O'Reilly?) on stage together
Murdoch endorsed Obama (NY Post - also owns Fox News) as being less of a worry to the right

Obama would bring us all together it seems

POST ENDORSES BARACK OBAMA


January 30, 2008 -- Democrats in 22 states across America go to the polls next Tuesday to pick between two presidential prospects: Sens. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

We urge them to choose Obama - an untried candidate, to be sure, but preferable to the junior senator from New York.<snip>

For all his charisma and his eloquence, the rookie senator sorely lacks seasoning: Regarding national security, his worldview is beyond naive; America must defend itself against those sworn to destroy the nation.

His all-things-to-all-people approach to complicated domestic issues also arouses scant confidence. "Change!" for the sake of change does not a credible campaign platform make. But he remains a highly intelligent man, with a strong record as a conciliator.<snip>

Finally, Sen. Clinton stands philosophically far to the left of her husband, and is much more disciplined in pursuit of her agenda.<snip>

3. Dude, nobody hates Teddy anymore. Other than a few DLC'ers like you.
It's only gonna help Obama. People who hate Teddy aren't going to vote for us anyway. And we know they wouldn't vote for HRC.

19. Well, you're also wrong to assume that being seen with Teddy is the kiss of death
He used to stump for Bill, back in the day. Even took him out on his boat.
Face it, people aren't obssesively anti-Kennedy anymore.

26. Not necessarily. It's best of the future joined with the best of the tradition.
And it gets Obama past the "he's ditching the boomers" slur.

4. That'll be a picture featured in GOP ads if Obama's nominated.
Ted's not very well liked outside of our party.

7. Maybe he's ready to jettison the "new" from his rhetoric.

23. Yet you insinuated that Kennedy introducing Obama is a bad thing.
Please explain, if you don't mind.

15. No disrespect---It depends on which states. As John Grishom
noted it can hurt in many states.
