The backlash cometh

[Proud2BAmurkin]

Something happened to the Obama campaign beginning about a week ago.

Historians could probably study the Dean campaign just before it came crashing down to earth to get an idea. Dean's fall wasn't about the scream, the scream happened at the moment the bubble burst.

Bubbles burst with or without screams. Sometimes they burst when people see 24 hour coverage of a candidate on stage with famous movie stars and women's talk show hosts and MSM pundits making ridiculous comparisons between genuine cultural heroes and regular pandering inexperienced and probably slightly corrupt politicians that weren't war heroes or civil rights heroes.

4. Do you dream of wild hot sex with the married 60 year old Hillary?

Get a life seems appropriate here.

[LostinVA]

5. WTF does her age have to do with ANYTHING?

[DJ13]

7. P2B sounds like he's 18 to 25 years old

I bet you think 50 year old Bill's affair with an 18 year old was appropriate........

[npincus]

6. wishful thinking

on your part.

[faithfulcitizen]

15. exactly, wishful thinking. But, you can't blame them for daring to hope.

[Buzz Clik]

8. Predictions! Get yer predictions right here! One thin dime, and worth every penny!

Yesterday, somebody was suggesting Hillary was planning to drop out of the campaign by March 1.

Now this.

Yippee!!

:bounce: :woohoo:

[DemGa]

9. They lost CA, NJ, NY, MASS...

all the big blue states. It's all but over for ObamaNation.

[VolcanoJen]

22. Yes. The only Americans who count live in big states.

Clinton Supporters Say: Suck it, Idaho, Minnesota and Utah! We scoff at your record turnout!

33. Rightttt - what did Hil pick up in her "home state?" 60%?

What did Obama pick up in his - 80% I think. She didn't even have a huge win in her own state - I was part of that, I'm proud to say. I'm not impressed with her at all as my senator, I'd rate her average. Apparently, a lot of NY'ers agreed with me.

10. oh, muckymerk, you're so delusional it's getting to the point where

it's not even much fun to poke sticks at you.

[Unsane]

11. Backlash even though he's set to win the next 7 primaries?

Go crawl back into your hole.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

12. yup

[underpants]

13. The only people who didn't know Kerry was going to win Iowa

were Deaniacs and the press. Everyone else, all the seasoned Iowa politicos and the DC ones knew that Kerry was going to win. There was no burst it was a slow leak.

US News had a great long article on it in 2005 ( I think) I will try to find it.

[LittleClarkie]

14. Against you amongst Hillary supporters? I hope so

I've seen a couple tell you to knock it off already. I could have kissed them.

[VolcanoJen]

17. Our Cult is much more Culty than Dean's Cult was.

We're a far more organized Cult. We're a regular Jim Jones/Manson Freakin' Family out here. Dean was more Heaven's Gate. Part of our Magic Cult Powers is that you have NO IDEA what we're going to do next. }(

"Bubbles burst with or without screams." Are you sure you're even a Democrat?

[Proud2BAmurkin]

18. lol nt

[ShortnFiery]

19. Be careful of what you wish for ...

it just may figuratively "blow-up" in your pretty little faces. :evilgrin:

[Proud2BAmurkin]

20. blowing up in our faces would mean the backlash comes too late

after the nomination

[Adsos Letter]

21. ...you forgot to actually make a point in your OP...

or reach a fact-based conclusion...or even provide us with some kind of comprehensible thesis...

[frylock]

29. they get paid per volume, not substance

[dionysus]

25. you got a late start today trollie...

For shits and grins. :evilgrin:

28. Media are starting to question his 'fans' and his status

From coast to coast in the US to England and Germany, the media are starting to examine the Obamania movement more closely. The "C" word has been used in increasingly more stories about him. Not good for his campaign, IMO.

[nolabels]

30. Many saw them coming long before they ever got here

The cadre of corporate media will have to come up with many more new wrinkles that no one has been thinking about for them to be successful.

[Laurab]

35. What are they asking them?

I'd love to be questioned by the media - I have a feeling most Obama supporters would. His status? What type of status? I'm a supporter, not a fan. The fact that he's attracting more and more people to his campaign is BAD? Could you 'splain that one a little better - and the status one, too?

Welcome to DU, btw.

[BuyingThyme]

31. There's a backlash when your opponent runs out of money?

[Laurab]

32. AGAIN??? Didn't you just post he was toast the other day? n/t
