Senator Casey: Clinton Arguments Against Obama Getting “Really Ridiculous”

Florida and Michigan — That is the big deal!
That is why the status quo isn’t bad for Clinton. If it goes to the convention and Obama and the DNC block Michigan and Florida delegations from counting, then the DNC will have a problem in the fall.
You cannot snub two big states like that — no matter what the DNC ‘rules’ are.
Obama’s campaign is going to implode — due to Pastor Wright, Rezko, Ayers, Israel-Palestine, reverse racism, Obama’s cockiness, Michelle’s anger and more. Let’s just hope it happens before August so the superdelegates can do what they’re supposed to do — nominate the strongest candidate to beat McCain in November.

Bob Casey, well spoken, sir. Would be nice to have some of your decency, intelligence and dedication to the Democratic agenda for America and the world in these blogs.
And please be assured that Barack Obama will ensure in the GE that we no longer have a GOP administration in the next 8 years. And let’s wave Pelosi and let Hillary take over her position.

What a comeback. Casey has gotta be kidding me.

Also I think its hillarious that a campaign thats main argument has been that their candidate is more electable is now saying that they should compete on the ideas.Great.
I think that is simply dumb. I guess Casey is proving that their side is losing the argument.

Bob Casey Jr – US Senate candidate Bob Casey Jr., who had run against Randell for the Democratic nomination for Governor in 2002 and lost. Just a little payback on the Obama thing.

for Hillary – Wright, you hate us. What’s new?

Carolina
You are right you just cant win 2 states down at the start in the GE by not allowing MI & FL votes matter. I have a feeling Casey is still not over what the Clintons did to his father that he would back an inferior nominee as spite.

What is “ridiculous” is the fact that we are edging so close to nominating a candidate with virtually no national experience who has run a campaign striclty based on marketing, rhetoric, and under the radar dirty tricks. Americans simply do not know enough about this man, and the press for some reason is doing their best to keep it that way. Why no coverage on the Bill Ayres story, you have to tune in to Fox to see that rather important piece of information. Just because Obama says something,his followers believe it, yet they accuse Clinton supporters of the very same thing. Obama is already waffling on his campaign finance pledge and Iraq plan, and he hasn’t even gotten the nomination yet. Gov. Rendell is absolutely right about the vetting, I want to really know where he stands regarding this pastor thing. Contrary to what he, his campaign, and his followers say, this has not gone away in people’s minds. He never answered it satisfactorily, he just evades and obfuscates every time he is pressed on a real question.

Casey will be a 1 term Senator. Enough said.

Why is it so difficult for Hillary supporters to admit that Hillary as an individual is simply too impopular with a majority of Americans to be an ‘electable’ candidate in the GE?
Rasmussen reports today: McCain is viewed favorably by 52% and unfavorably by 45%. Obama’s reviews are also 52% favorable and 45% unfavorable. For Clinton, those numbers are 45% favorable, 53% unfavorable.
And Rasmussen’s numbers are very mild on this. But it’s really this simply: if a clear majority of people have such a long-standing distrust in Hillary, consider her to be untrustworthy, unlikeable etc., for whatever reason, there’s simply NO chance she could ever win a General Election.
Because her supporters like her, and like her a lot, this no doubt is hard to accept. Maybe she should have run another campaign, not following the ‘hard line’ as favored by Penn; now her popularity numbers have only dropped further during this campaign. In some polls the ‘untrustworthy’ numbers are very high.
People who want Democrats to run this country really should be glad that Hillary did NOT win the nomination; she’d never get a majority to vote for her in the GE. And the superdelegates are aware of this all too well.
Let’s back up the winner to put the disastrous GOP rule of our country to an end.

3 Superdelegates endorsed Hillary Clinton in the last 36 hours. More on the way after she wins PA.

Really ridiculous to me blocking the counting of 2.3 million democrats votes, 8% of the electorate to win a nomination so you can lose the White House.
Because you dont win the white house by writing off 8% of the electoral college.
That’s pretty ridiculous to me. Coming from a man who talks about the people deciding its downright disingenuous.

Casey’s a smart guy. He lost to Rendell because Rendell won the black vote big, and those white liberals in Philly and Pittsburgh. After the nomination is over, Rendell will be toast because his base is Obama’s base. The black vote will swing Casey’s way because he already has the Casey Democrats locked up in his pocket. Casey will be the next Governor of Pennsylvania. Book it. And if Obama wins and becomes President, you know he’ll come to town and back Casey over Rendell. Rendell is the one that’s toast. He just spat in the face of his base. Now Casey’s appeal has broadened beyond his white, blue-colar base. The man is smart. He is no idiot. It’s a win-win endorsement for him. Even if Obama loses, the blacks in Philly will remember that Casey stood tall for them. You folks really don’t know politics.

WestCoast Messenger. What are we, seven months before the election ? These national polls have been fluctuating like crazy. When Obama gets the nomination, it will be a huge bounce for him. And don’t think McCain isn’t going to make mistakes ! The race is just beginning

This argument that Obama is unelectible is total fiction. Prove it with facts, not soem BS you pull out of your ass. Despite the fact that 33% of Hillary suporters say they will not vote for him, he still leads McCain in the polls. When he locks up the nomination, he will pick a nice, Jewish guy to be his VP and all this black radical BS will go away. The Democratic party will rally behind him and that alone will be a 20-point boost in the polls. Also, currently he is doing better than Hillary in head to head match-ups against Mccain (except in the AP-IPOS poll released today). he is doing better in the Rasmussen polls, gallup polls, and every other bloody poll. Can somebody please give me a basis for this idiotic claim that Hillary is the stronger candidate against McCain?

Hilalry people keep beating on this Wright issue, but the polls clearly show that nobody in America give a crap about this issue. Maybe some do, but not enough to keep Obama from whooping Hillary in the polls. Please guys, prove that this Wright issue is an issue that Americans care about. Obama is expanding his national lead on Hillary everyday, everyday.

As soon as this Hillary distraction is finally put to bed and Obama and McCain start debating, it will become pretty apparent that Obama’s the only one that can lead us out of the misery of the Bush years! A vote for John McCain is essentially a vote for a third term for Bush.

Whomever thinks Obama is electable has never been thru an election process before.
What you guys read in the media today has nothing to do with a Mc Cain Obama matchup.
And all you do is read the corrupt Liberal media that beholds Obama no matter what he does.
He only leads in certain ‘polls’ -and furthermore you are insane to believe any corrupt ‘poll’ . They are taken to give propoganda to whatever candidate they want to promote.
The general election will come down to trust and strength. Obama hasnt earned any of it. The Clintons ran a horrible campaign .

“Really ridiculous to me blocking the counting of 2.3 million democrats votes, 8% of the electorate to win a nomination so you can lose the White House.”
I agree but they were written off when Hillary said they didn’t count…and the nails were driven in the coffin when she started using the situation to her own ends…playing like she cared about the voters. Now it is so twisted that with her riding in on her presentation of a white horse the day after the mock election (you know the one that took place before the voters knew anyone besides the woman who was their first lady for 8 years…kind of like every other state that started with her with a 20 point margin that almost always either closed to a margin under 5 or with Obama winning)…
Who do you think cares less about the voters…the candidate who stayed with the agreement they all made, or the one who decided to vote for them only when it helped her personally? Sounds like she proved they were just numbers to her.

Has Senator Casey figured out that not only is Senator Obama pro-abortion, but that by supporting partial birth abortion and stating that parents don’t need to be informed about their 12 or 13 year old’s decision to seek an abortion, is probably the most left on this subject? Isn’t Casey right-to-life? Okay … I’m really just so confused.

Dogsoldier
Obama cannot win the election outright so that is reason to insult him in these blogs daily? Okay, what then do you say about Hillary who is trailing him by 150 delegates? She is the establishment candidate and cannot even beat a rookie politician. If Obama is pathetic, what word best describes the incumbent that cannot even catch him? She then is beyond pathetic. It is a thing of great accomplishment that Obama, a bloody rookie, has stood up to the Clinton dynasty and battled them to this point. Obama is David and Clinton is Goliath. Don’t let your bias completely deny you the ability to reason and to put things in proper perspective. The fact that Hillary is where she is speaks loudly to the flaw in the candidate. She had all the advantage at the beginning, not Obama. She had the party leaders, the name recognition, $109 million in her bank account, a 100 superdelegate lead, a 20-point national lead, and an ex-President spouse and first-daughter campaigning all over the country for her. Imagine if she was in Obama’s shoes to begin with? Imagine if she didn’t have $5 million to lend her campaign? It’s shame on Hillary for not bull-dozing her way to this nomination by february 5th. She is imcompetent at the very least.

Dogsoldier…
I say I would vote for McCain because I think he is a good man…and I don’t put Roe vs. wade that high on my priority list. I also have a very safe job to be able ride through a steep economic downturn for the first time in my life.
Hillary is untrustworthy at this point in my opinion…and if “change” is between McCain and Clinton (Bushclintonbushclin…)…it will be McCain.
I do not think most Hillary supporters are going to make the choice of McCain.
Hillary’s supporters are far corner democrats of the old party. Obama’s are the new democrats and independents.
Even if half of Hillary supporters vote for McCain with the numbers of people turning out democrat Obama has a much better chance in the general.
Hillary’s likeability numbers were low (so low she had a very small window to stay able to win) to begin with now she has pissed off half of the democratic electorate…how many does she need to lose to become unelectable…a lot less than she has already lost.

Jan:
You should never assume you know about other people’s past.
Having said that, I can tell you that no 12 year old should walk into an abortion clinic alone. If you believe that, then YOU have no idea what you are talking about.

Dogsoldier
Let me use an analogy to describe your argument. Mike Tyson in his prime gets in the ring with a rookie light-weight fighter. The rookie light-weight fighter boxes him to a victory by decision, then Tyson comes up to the fighter and says “what kind of fighter are you? You couldn’t even knock me out. I have held you in check, so imagine what Mohammed Ali would have done to you.” It’s such a stupid argument, you should be ashamed of yourself for even making it.

Sad for Hillary, but maybe decisive in the GE:
the DNC is wild about Obama, the GOP is full of bad blood against McCain.
Ant it will show.

BeeBop
I never said I would let a 14 year old go on her own!!! but You should never Judge people about what they do with their body and their future.
Now back to politics
OBAMA ’08
Chelsea ’24

@Dogsoldier
“this has to be a MAJOR headache for democrats whatever side you happen to be on today.”
might be true or not, but that’s how things stand today. One thing however is for sure: if the SD’s would all decide to go for Hillary, the disaster would be even more complete. Obama still represents the majority of the Dem voters in the primaries, remember?

Dogsoldier
You say now that if Obama wins, you will not vote for him. I assure you, if you are a true Democrat, you will feel differently when this race is over. Right now you are just pissed because your candidate is losing. But if the Democrats steal this nomination from Obama, then the party is toast. If Hillary wants to win this thing, she has to find a way to win it fair and square. No backroom deals. The Obama supporters are not mad right now because we are ahead and chilling. But if we smell any shenanigans, even a toad running on the Republican platform will beat Hillary in November. The nominee has to EARN the nomination. Plain and simple. Not steal it.

dl – Who’s chances are better in the general? Heck, PA is still a lifetime away and the general looks like eternity from here. Furthermore, the world refuses to stand still and wait for this thing to play itself out so who knows what tomorrow or next day will bring? Let alone months from now.

I will support whomever earns the nomination. I will support whomever finishes the Primary with the pledged delegate lead. If the pubas decide this thing in Hillary’s favor if she ends up trailing by 120 delegates, what do you think will happen? Hillary supporters will not be too mad when Obama wins because deep in their hearts, they will know that he EARNED it. When Bush beat Kerry, i was disappointed but not mad because unlike 2000, he EARNED it.

William Ayers, people…William Ayers!
Someone aspiring to the Presidency of the United States does not nurture an ongoing personal and professional relationship with a known and unrepentant domestic terrorist. Let alone sit in that church listening to that garbage for 20 years. He’s unfit to command and will bring ruin to our party in November.

You gotta’ love how Clinton’s endorser gets 0 scrutiny & the first thing out the gate they paint Casey (Obama’s endorser) as deceptive (who had said he’d remain neutral). When will the MSM come out & ask the Clinton campaign for a response on the fact that Wright was invited to the Whitehouse to help absolve Billy boy on the Lewinsky affair??? Why is it that not one of the Clinton supporters will even address that issue??? Wright was just fine to support Bill but once he’s found to be supporting Obama he is all of a sudden the anti-Christ??? Come on people get a clue… Do we really have to ignore the fact that the Clinton campaign has imploded multiple times while we wait for & assist in the implosion of Obama’s campaign???
Obama has answered & continues to answer every question asked on the subject (which he should).
He really deserves credit for handling an explosive issue with poise & grace & honesty.

Jan…
Oh Yes I Do!
You don’t have to be black to find yourself in that predicament!
And that’s just one of the reasons I favor Hillary. Her goal is to provide better schooling for the 14 year old, and health care and pre-school for the baby.
She has already gotten health care for 6,000,000 children ….. and is fighting for everyone to be covered!
What has Obama really accomplished?
He is so focused on himself, he could not even take the time off from campaining to show up at the recent memorial ceremonies for Martin Luther King!
Don’t vote for or against him because of his color… but don’t expect to get anything out of him just because you’re black.
Ask the Chicagoans who froze in Rezko’s tenements during Obama’s watch because the money for heat was instead handed over to him.
Ask his polical contenders in Chicago who were eliminated from the slate by his shady, underhanded maneuvers.
The only thing that’s changed here is the size of the arena. Obama has not changed!!
You know what happens to teflon when it begins to peel….? The cracks and the crud are beginning to come through!
Vote for whom you want, but Barfy will NEVER get my vote!!!!
GIVE ‘EM HELL, HILLARY!!!

MY WIFEY WAS JUST TRYING TO SAY, SHE WOULD ONLY BE PROUD OF AMERICA IF GOOD OLE BUCKY WAS ELECTED PREZ. NOW DON’T BOTHER ME ASKING ABOUT ISSUES ANYMORE. (yes but mister president, it’s time for the State of the Union Address). WELL, JUST RUN THAT HOPE AND CHANGE CAMPAIGN SPEECH BY THOSE SUCKERS AGAIN.

WOW – I stumbled into the uneducated, blue collar PA/OH bunch. How do you people live with the hatred of Blacks. I really feel sorry for you. I hope you get some education soon. If I were you I too would be afraid of a Brillant, Charismatic, Charming Black guy when you look at the alternatives we have to vote for. A lunatic lying woman or an old fool who had 20 hours of combat and calls himself a “war hero” lol lol

PUTIN IS ON THE PHONE? TELL THAT BRO TO WAIT A MINUTE, UNTIL I CAN STOP STUTTERING. WHAT? NUCLEAR MISSLES HEADED THIS WAY? TELL HIM I HAVE A PLAN FOR HOPE AND CHANGE, AND I’LL GET BACK TO HIM AS SOON AS I FIGURE IT OUT!

In three months Barrack’s campaign has gone from describing the U.S. presidential hopeful as never having been a Muslim and never having been raised as a Muslim to now having never having been a practicing Muslim.

I turned on MSNBC regarding the questioning of General Petraeus and the analysts seemed to agree that Hillary Clinton was the best of the three senators running for president in her questioning of Petraeus.
Hillary took command of the issues and came across most effectively. I think Chris Matthews may have even got an “Obama tingling up his leg.” Something rubbed me wrong the way Obama cross-examined the general. The general is not our enemy and the questions that Hillary asked were on the mark and could possibly lead to reconciliation to the point we would get the hell out of Iraq.
Obama may be aces at being a prosecutor but he just doesn’t have what it takes to be a commander in chief. The commander in chief should be selected — not as in a popularity contest or a reality show!
Hillary 2008!

“Muslim Americans for Obama 08″ features the masthead comment, “DONATE TODAY: One $1 DOLLAR for ONE NATION UNDER GOD”
In case there is any doubt as to which “God” these folks are speaking of, the first two paragraphs make it abundantly clear.
With God’s Name ~ Quran 49:13 Oh Mankind! We have created you male and female, and have made you nations and tribes that you may know one another. The best of you, in the sight of God, is the best in conduct. Allah is the best knower, aware.
As Salaam Alaikum, (The Peace of God Be Upon You) and welcome to Muslim Americans for Obama’08.
“Muslim Americans for Obama ’08,” proposes installing Muslim prayer areas in public places and giving Muslims time off for prayer and has denounced Obama’s colleagues in the U.S. Senate who happen to be Jewish.

AMERICAN PIE!
Michelle Obama said: “Most Americans don’t want much. Folks don’t want the whole pie. Someone is going to have to give up a piece of the pie so someone else can have more!”
Is she totally nuts? She is a socialist! I’ve given enough to the government. I don’t want to give any more. I want my slice of the pie!
VOTE HILLARY 2008!

@AMERICANPIE
“I want my slice of the pie!”
So do your fellow Americans. That was the whole point, you silly.

HILLARY’s LATEST FOREIGN POLICY NEWS!
A deeply embarrassed Prime Minister Gordon Brown today found himself being wrongly lauded by Hillary Clinton for “boycotting” the Beijing Olympics.
To the fury of the British PM his decision to miss the rituals that will start the 2008 Games was being reported around the world as a snub to China.
Downing Street desperately tried to douse the story by pointing out that it had been saying for months that the Prime Minister would only attend the closing ceremony, where the torch will be symbolically passed from Beijing to London 2012.
See, Hillary has been going around praising Brown for his decision to skip the opening ceremonies, and the media has been all “Oooh, Hillary’s pal Gordon is totally giving China the proverbial finger here, just like she wanted him to,” and now the British government is trying to explain that really, Brown never intended to go to the ceremonies, but it was just some kind of scheduling issue, not a self-aggrandizing symbolic statement.

Casey’s real reason for endorsing Barack Obama:
“Also, his kids were on his case, his four daughters. Not that they dictate to him, but he was paying attention. He was wondering, why are these kids, who aren’t very political, so interested?”
NYT, March 28, 2008
Nice going Sen. Casey! Kids who aren’t political now essentially endorsing.

Eyes Open:
I also was thinking the exact same thing. Much has been written on the amount Obama is pissing away in PA. It is historic, never seen by any other candidate in that state’s history. It dwarfs that spent by Hillary Clinton. The gist of one particular article was whether or not the nomination was up for sale in PA.
There should be a law to control this. Like campaign pledge Obama once agreed to with McCain and now reneges on.
All that money could have bailed out a lot of homeowners; could have paid for a lot of free medical care; could have supported low income kids in after school day care; could have funded drug rehabs, and on and on and on.
Hillary Clinton is the first candidate to whom I have contributed. I feel very strongly about her candidacy and so I do what I can. But, at the same time I do agree that sooooo much money coudl have been spent elsewhere.

Hillary just today undid her support among the US military…
Military advice doesn’t count for her! I think that is pretty shocking news…
At a news conference today, Hillary was asked if she would keep to her promises on withdrawing troops, even if she is advised differently by military leaders on the ground.
Her answer:
“Well, let me just describe to you
the way our system works,” Mrs. Clinton said. “Policy is set by the civilian leadership. The president of the United States sets the policy. Our military, and thankfully so, carries out the policy that is set.”
Isn’t that amazing? She’ll no longer have my vote. I’m from a military family and everyone here is furious about these remarks. And rightly so guess, for the security of American soldiers is at stake, among many other things.
“Let me just describe to you the way our system works”… that is ice cold arrogance. I’m for Obama now.

Clinton supporters say they give all they can to their candidate and at the same time condemn Obama supporters for doing the same. They say all that money could be spent on . . . list your cause. They miss the point. I axed my grocery money lots of times to donate to Obama. It’s my money and my choice if I want to eat cheap to help to take my country back from the fat cats. Mrs. Clinton’s campaign was strongly funded from the top down with wealthy people. Obama’s is mostly from the grass roots up and we aren’t done yet. Not by a long shot. If you want to cut your grocery money to the bone to support a cause of your choice, please do. Organize a million people who agree with you and get it done. But don’t say that the 1,300,000 of us who have already done it,don’t have the right. This isn’t public money that’s being spent. This is money that we earned by our own hard work. It’s money that we made sacrifices for. We stood together and we effected a change in the way that political campaigns will be funded in this country in the future. Nobody who donates $10.00 thinks that they have the right to try to threaten or intimidate The Speaker of the House of the United States of America. That distinction went to twenty of Hillary Clinton’s wealthy supporters. If we don’t want all the laws made for the benefit of fat cats, lobbyists, PAC’s and special interests, then we have to take financial responsibility for our own elections. Obama supporters did that. If you really believe that democracy should support the people, you should be happy about that. It is a huge step forward for government for and by the people.

countallthevotes: The Casey kids remind me of the other big name endorsements that were influenced by the strong urging of their children — Shriver, Caroline Kennedy, and my favorite, Claire McCaskill. I’ll never understand why she went on program after program so proud of her teenage daughter that screamed at her, called her a slug and said she’d be ashamed of her if she didn’t support Obama. Oh, man….

One can understand all these frustrated hillary supporters and their whining and crying. Its not easy when all these folks hoped to see was Americans just closing thier eyes and voting for that lying woman and her cheating husband Bill. They did not expect that Americans have become smarter not to fall for the same old lies of the Clintons.
Hillary is not only phony, she is totally inefficient. She can’t even run a smooth campaign, all the time, some problem or the other, her campaign is in deep sh*t. How on earth she is going to straighten the economy when her own economy is now in crisis. All these 35 yrs of cooked up experience is no use folks. She is no leader, only a liar! She is a good for nothing, but a whining and complaining woman. She brings shame to all good women. I would never allow her to run even the Dunkin Donuts around the street corner.

Now, what I see as really ridiculous is when politicians like Casey come out with all these touchy feely intangible descriptors when explaining why they’ve decided to endorse Senator Obama.
For instance:
“Best to unite the country,” well how is he going to do that when he can’t even unite the Democratic Party? Oh, and as for uniting the world, I have been wondering exactly how Muslim fundamentalists will view a president who was born to a Muslim father and decided to become a Christian (I’m not an expert, but I thought that was frowned upon by fundamentalists, and one would think his constant claims about not being a Muslim might just be a tad insulting).
“Uncommon leadership” with respect to his speech on race? Hmmm … I saw his speech as a diversion, I expected him to explain why he sat in the pews for 20 years, and he attempted to burden me with a whole lot of guilt (while throwing grandma under the bus, ouch!). And, I think people who say Rev. Wright won’t matter are fooling themselves.

This just shows you that everyone has a right to their opinion. The current results do show that more people prefer Obama, otherwise can someone explain why he is winning?!! – and don’t tell me its the media – that’s jus a lame excuse.

Jacksmith, it’s so laughable that you’re always posting the same post on every site, saying “She’s a woman and a mother.” LOL, since when was that a presidential quality? 50% of the adult population on Earth are women, and most of them are or will be mothers- should we all become president? I wish you’d stop copy/pasting your lame post everywhere and actually say something logical.

Time to face the music.
Obama will be the nominee and McCain is a weak candidate. Obama knows you can’t snub Florida so the delegates will be seated. The only reason Gore hasn’t openly endorsed Obama now is that he knows he can wield more effect by holding back and dropping hints.
The only reason Hillary has so many pledged superdelegates left is that they endorsed her early on, when she was ‘inevitable.’ They are with her now out of loyalty only; that is, out of fear that if they jump ship they will face her wrath later when she is still the senatior from NY. They even say so!
Wake up democrats. Our infighting is like Lord of the Flies all over again. That you demonize Obama is natural and human nature – Politics is gang warfare our human minds do this to the opponents of our favorite candidate.
Try to rise above it and save your hate for the republicans. If some new scandal sinks Obama, I will vote Clinton.

What is really ridiculous is that Casey admitted his minor CHILDREN were the reason he endorsed Obama. I guess he wanted to be a “cool” dad. I guess that sums up America these days, huh? It’s more important to look “cool” than to make sense. Being older and wise is now a NEGATIVE and earns you slander and disapproval in the press, while kids with no life experiences are driving our nominee. God Help Us All. And I wonder if that Casey dude will win a second term from PA? Seems folks up there are pretty sensible and I am not sure they’ll appreciate their senator taking cues from his kids. What else is the kid dictating?

Does everyone have to argue absurdly like a lawyer today? You’re not getting 3 mill to represent that serial killer as their defense attorney. If you are a supporter of candidate X it is alright to admit they made mistakes.
1) Stop with the Barrack Hussein Obama racist garbage
2) McCain couldn’t possibly use public financing while others used the old financing methods.
3) Its ok to admit that Hillary is pretty good at the game of politics. Its her profession. You’re not potentially voting for her to be your Mom.
Accept the various backgrounds that people come from and leave it at that.

Casey is an idiot.
Hillary Clinton cannot unload on Obama the way the Repubs are going to do, because the media will savage her if she does. That is why the Rev Wright scandal (which contrary to the media IS really hurting Obama) didn’t come out until the end of the Primary and not the beginning.
If Hillary was as nasty as Obama supporters say she is, she would have came out with the Rev Wright stuff before Iowa and Obama would have been the first Dem candidate to leave the race.
Casey said his daughters pushed him to vote for Obama. How lame is that? A parent letting his kids push him around.
Casey is also an idiot for holding a grudge against the Clintons, when it was his father’s refusal to endorse Bill Clinton, which was the reason why his father didn’t speak at the convention.
Casey also harbors resentment to Ed Rendell because he lost the election for state Governor to Rendell.
I supported Casey when he ran for Senator simply because he was a Dem. But now that I have been getting to know more about what kind of vain and petty person he is, He’s lost my support forever. Screw him.
I’ll work to defeat him when the next election comes up.

Casey is an insult to his father. His father stood for life, not for abortion. His father was one of the most outspoken government officials against abortion. He was totally Pro-Life.
Then her comes his idiot son, whom endorses the worst candidate ever on the issues of aboriton. Mr. Obama has the worst record in the senate on abortion issues. In fact he is the only one that tried to overturn the 2002 Bill that was signed to save late-term abroted babies from being murdered.
Obama and his wife Michelle (she threw a 140.00 plate luncheon) to help her husband here in Illinois to overtrhrow that signed Bill.
Even the real Liberals in the senate such as :Ted Kennedy, Barabar Boxer and even Hillary Clinton voted for the Bill to pass.
Obama is the closest to infanticide of all the candidates.
Casey should be ashamed of himself (especially him being a Catholic and his dad for pro-life) to endorse some one as evil as Obama.

The Washington Post today 4-11-08 –”But those with wealth and power also have played a critical role in creating Obama’s record-breaking fundraising machine, and their generosity has earned them a prominent voice in shaping his campaign. Seventy-nine “bundlers,” five of them billionaires, have tapped their personal networks to raise at least $200,000 each. They have helped the campaign recruit more than 27,000 donors to write checks for $2,300, the maximum allowed. Donors who have given more than $200 account for about half of Obama’s total haul, which stands at nearly $240 million. HASN’T ANYONE NOTICED—REZKO TRIAL HAS ALREADY POINTED OUT THAT REZKO GAVE MONEY TO DONORS TO GIVE TO THE OBAMA CAMPAIGN IN 2003 AND THEN PAID THEM BACK BREAKING FEDERAL LAWS. HE IS DOING IT AGAIN AND EVERYONE IS JUST SITTING BACK AND LETTING HIM DO IT??????

Casey isn’t the only politician relying on their children to make their decision about whom to support. Remember Maria Shriver showing up at an Obama rally with Caroline Kennedy and Oprah?
Obama lost in California – despite these “star” endorsements. and relying on your children? – so, I guess Casey and Shriver are the kind of parents who think parenting is giving their children anything they want!
