IT"S A BIRD!.... IT'S A PLANE!.... NO!...... IT'S"SUPER DELEGATE"!

Submitted by Jeff Morris Sau... on Wed, 02/13/2008 - 9:08pm.
We've heard a lot lately about how significant the super delegates might be in determining the Democratic Pres nominee. A super delegates vote on the average, is the equivalent of 9,538 voters. Many of the super delegates are veterans of the "old school" wing of the Democratic party. The longer you have been an established figure in your party, the better for where you stand with these super delegates. Advantage...Sen Clinton. Hillary is the longer standing established figure.

Helping the Presidential Nominee

Federal Election

We don't often do this at ActBlue, but we're writing today to ask you to take up one cause in particular: the fight for the White House.

http://www.actblue.com/page/startfightingnow

We're writing to you because you're one of the several thousand people who have already recognized the power of an ActBlue fundraising page. We'd like you to add the Presumptive Nominee Draft Fund to your page.

The Republicans have their nominee. Time and time again, this is where Democrats are most vulnerable: we take months to select a nominee, and we fight divided against a unified Republican voice.

The hardest, the biggest, the most important fight right now is the fight for the White House.

Now more than ever, we don't just need people to send checks. We need everyone to start working on building a war chest for the Democratic Nominee, by building pages and asking their friends for help and by starting to fight today for victory in November.

http://www.actblue.com/page/startfightingnow

We've created a way for you to help our nominee even before he or she is chosen. Help our candidate hit the ground running.

ActBlue fights for the Democratic Party in its most vulnerable places. Will you join us?

BREAK OUT THE BIG GUN....ENTER "BUBBA!"

Submitted by Jeff Morris Sau... on Sun, 01/27/2008 - 10:31am. Democratic Party
All the bickering between the Clinton and Obama camps could wind up hurting the nominee in the general election. Regardless of which one of them ends up being the nominee. Not that I'm writing off John Edwards yet. By staying out of the squabble he seems to be picking up a little steam in the polls lately.< > There's a chunk of the voting populace that just doesn't like Sen. Clinton. This goes back to the days of her husbands Presidency. Many feel she has an image problem of appearing cold and witchy at times. Her attacking Obama doesn't help that image problem. Bubba's recent antics are starting to remind even long standing Bill Clinton supporters like myself of how "Team Clinton" will do whatever it takes to win the nomination. Even attack a fellow Democrat who just happens to be a rising star in the Democratic party.< >

Good Luck Rep Kucinich,We'll Miss You

Submitted by Jeff Morris Sau... on Sun, 01/27/2008 - 10:19am. Dennis Kucinich
GOOD LUCK REP KUCINICH, WE'LL MISS YOU Rep. Kucinich was the most courageous and honest of all the candidates in the race. He had the guts to call the Bush administration on all of it's law breaking, and to actually take a stand AGAINST them. His introduction of HR # 333 and HR # 799 to impeach VP Cheney showed real leadership. It's too bad the MSM never gave him the equal air time for his campaign to gain traction.< >

Democrats Support Republicans in Declaring Iran A Terrorist Nation

Submitted by arnie98683 on Mon, 10/01/2007 - 5:55pm. Iraq
Senate Roll Call to Practically Give Bush Authority To Attack Iran By Calling Them a Terrorist Nation and Imposing Sanctions - The First Step Towards Another Bush War!!!!!!!! That dimwit Democratic leader of the Senate Harry Reid voted to give Bush the authority to attack Iran!!!! And, worst of all, frontrunner for the Democratic Presidential nomination Hillary Clinton voted for it!!!!!!! She obviously didn't learn from her first mistake in voting to give Bush authority to attack Iraq.
