Members Jess Posted May 26, 2008 Members Share Posted May 26, 2008 Hi Jay. It's fun to agree with you again! Hope everything is well with you. That is a good question. I guess the fact a bunch of us, who are anything but red necks are talking about assassination says how great the potential is for some type of tragedy this year. That is why I really wish the RFK tragedy had not been brought up as topic in the campaign. The Huckabee thing too, it was like Obama wants to take you guns away, that's a shootin offense boys. Of course, it didn't take Hillary to make people talk about it. I know people who support Obama who have said that he is such an electrifying political figure that he could be shot.

Members Wales2004 Posted May 26, 2008 Members Share Posted May 26, 2008 The tone of this thread is really disturbing, I am not from NJ but the characterization of it as a pathetic state is offensive to me. I know people who have lived through assassinations of leaders and the thought of it happening again is disturbing and they are not fanatics either. I think the broad strokes with which some of you choose to label people that are not of your opinion really says a lot. I think it's ridiculous to suggest that a fanatical Obama supporter would try to kill HC but not that a fanatical HC supporter would try to kill Obama. How can someone know what's in the minds of every HC supporter in the nation? And furthermore, how does someone know with certainty that HC does not have any racist supporters as well? Why is it that Obama has racist supporters but HC does not have any? Who does the most name calling in this thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Roman Posted May 26, 2008 Members Share Posted May 26, 2008 Question. What is BC talking about now? From CNN: Bill Clinton says wife is victim of a ‘cover up’ Posted: 10:55 AM ET From CNN Associate Political Editor Rebecca Sinderbrand CNN Watch Bill Clinton's remarks about the state of the race. (CNN) — Former President Bill Clinton said that Democrats were more likely to lose in November if his wife Hillary Clinton is not the party’s presidential nominee, and suggested some people were trying to “cover this up” and “push and pressure and bully” superdelegates to make up their minds prematurely. "I can’t believe it. It is just frantic the way they are trying to push and pressure and bully all these superdelegates to come out,” he said at a South Dakota campaign stop Sunday, in remarks first reported by ABC News. “'Oh, this is so terrible: The people they want her. Oh, this is so terrible: She is winning the general election, and he is not. Oh my goodness, we have to cover this up.'" The former president added that his wife had not been given the respect she deserved as a legitimate presidential candidate. "She is winning the general election today and he is not, according to all the evidence,” he said. “And I have never seen anything like it. I have never seen a candidate treated so disrespectfully just for running.” “Her only position was, ‘Look, if I lose I'll be a good team player. We will all try to win — but let's let everybody vote, and count every vote,’" he said. The former president suggested that if the New York senator ended the primary season with an edge in the popular vote, it would be a significant development. "If you vote for her and she does well in Montana and she does well in Puerto Rico, when this is over she will be ahead in the popular vote,” said Clinton. “And they're trying to get her to cry uncle before the Democratic Party has to decide what to do in Florida and Michigan” – which the party would need to do “unless we want to lose the election. " The current requirement to claim the Democratic presidential nomination is 2,026 delegates, a formula that does not take into account delegates from Florida and Michigan, whose contests were not sanctioned by the party – although if those votes were to be counted as cast, Hillary Clinton would still currently trail rival Barack Obama in the overall delegate count. The former president said Sunday that the media had unfairly attacked his wife since the Iowa caucuses, repeating an often-used charge that press coverage had made him feel as though he were living in a “fun house.” "If you notice, there hasn't been a lot of publicity on these polls I just told you about,” he said. “It is the first time you've heard it? Why do you think that is? Why do you think? Don't you think if the polls were the reverse and he was winning the Electoral College against Senator McCain and Hillary was losing it, it would be blasted on every television station?” He added, “You would know it wouldn't you? It wouldn't be a little secret. And there is another Electoral College poll that I saw yesterday had her over 300 electoral votes…. She will win the general election if you nominate her. They're just trying to make sure you don't." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ryan Posted May 26, 2008 Members Share Posted May 26, 2008 As someone who is from NJ, I disagree with your overall assessment of my state. You're more than entitled to your opinion though. If someone begins bashing your state, don't say a damn things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
