Title: Howard Dean on Barack Obama
Post by: Hoss on September 15, 2008, 03:28:27 PM
Best quote I've ever seen from him.

"What Barack is trying to accomplish is something Bush willfully chose not to do. Barack wants to be president of all America, not just the half that agrees with him."

Is that why he has such an astounding record of bipartisanship in the Senate?  Kinda hard to represent all of America when your record shows you voted with your party 97% of the time (//%22http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/la-oe-goldberg9-2008sep09,0,695687.column%22).

Maybe B.O. doesn't consider Republicans to be Americans.  The half that disagrees with him are Hilliary supporters.

Yes, Guido,... it's not about policies, it's about sound bites... [B)]

IMO, Howard Dean would have made a much much better president than George W. Bush... he unfortunately let a buncha first-timer neophytes volunteer for him in Iowa... I could explain what happened... but then again...

But hey, soundbites rule... you're a tool.... don't be a fool.... watch Howard Dean drool....

Geez.

Half? Not according to polls. Closer to 30%!

That is a powerful statement no matter who uses it. I hope it gets picked up and promoted. Only I would include "...and what McCain will continue not to do".

Its a stinger.

Especially if you don't care to dig into the facts.  Perception is reality eh?

This is salesman puffing. Allowed.

Facts, perception and reality all merge into one big hazy refinery emission during political cycles. Hence the most meaningful bumper sticker ever made, "Onward, thru the fog" [;)]

Actually, research shows that McCain is more bipartisan than Obama.  

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2008/sep/15/records-show-mccain-more-bipartisan/

A look at Congressional Quarterly shows
Mr. McCain has voted with the majority of Senate Republicans about 85 percent of the time, while in his three years in the Senate Mr. Obama has voted with his party 97 percent of the time.

Waahhhaaa!!!!!!!!!!

Depends, RM.  What DOES he need to disagree with to get elected?
