Hillary Supporters: "Mad as Hell"

Two Noted Hillary-Haters, Nancy Pelosi and PA Congressman Patrick Murphy. There is a national effort underway by supporters of Sen. Hillary Clinton to target for defeat SuperDelegates like Murphy who support Obama in direct conflict with the wishes of their constituents.

Rep. Patrick Murphy (Bucks County, PA) getting the evil eye from his political mentor and fellow Hillary-Hater Nancy Pelosi. Murphy, a former Army lawyer, basically sold out his fellow soldiers (see below) for "considerations" by Speaker Pelosi. Patrick Murphy believes he has settled down in DC for a cushy political career of handing out favors and taking a "what, me worry?" attitude to national security. Don't get too settled, Patrick, because Tom Manion is gaining on you. Manion, an American hero whose son, Travis, died in Iraq deserves your support. If you've just received your stimulus check, please consider donating either one-third or one-half it to Manion at: http://votemanion.com/. Please send it in memory of Travis Manion.

Of course, if you're the rare breed that prefers political sleaze-bags, youl'll probably feel comfortable with Murphy. "Just say . . . enough is enough." National Hillary Supporters groups are targeting Obama-philes like Murphy, a SuperDelegate who supported the Illinois Senator, even though his district (and state) went overwhelmingly for Hillary Clinton.

ON MAD-AS-HELL HILLARY SUPPORTERS

Amazing isn't a big enough word for what follows . . . but as the husband of one wife and father of five daughters, most of whom supported Hillary Clinton, I'm not totally surprised.

"Go to the window and open it up, and shout out, 'I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore!'" (Peter Finch, in "Network")

Jean Avery of http://moms4mccain.blogspot.com sent me the following fascinating material from an angry Hillary Supporters thread. Fascinating isn't quite a big enough word. Stupefying?

-- Steve, I posted your HillarySupporters blog link in comments on this thread, will keep you posted!

These ladies are MAAAAADDD! ------------

Spokespersons for Just Say No Deal:
East Coast: Cristi Adkins, RN Cht
West Coast: Robin Carlson

An explosion of rogue grassroots organizations coalesced literally over night to form one united Mega-Coalition, Just Say No Deal -- www.justsaynodeal.com

Growing exponentially individually but infinitely together in one unifying mission, they are Obama’s worst nightmare.

The Just Say No Deal is made up of over 20 grassroots organizations and over 1 million subscribers thus far -- with one unifying mission: Operation Nobama.

Literally millions of frustrated, disenfranchised and gritty activists, to include Democrats, Independents as well as naughty Republicans have already come together for one common thing…”We Will Not Vote For Obama Period.”

[Question]: When asked, “Should Hillary become the nominee for VP, would you then cast your votes for Obama?”

Answer: One goal, one mission…NOBAMA -- Period.

Obama’s campaign got this one right…he has managed to bring people of all colors, genders, cultures and religions together for one unifying coalition: .Just Say No Deal.

By 5 PM tomorrow you can log onto the Just Say No Deal site and literally choose from a buffet of grass roots organizations such as the Clintons4mccain.com or thehireheels.com whose common goal will be to keep Obama out of the oval office.

The http://www.clintons4mccain.com/ group has also started making pledges of donations to send to John McCain after the DNC Convention when they are certain Hillary is OUT.

My comment: I support John McCain for President. I believe Hillary Clinton waged a tough (loved the shot-and-beer episode) campaign, and that she received a raw deal from the Obama group and the national media.

"Moms" Star Salutes Sarah Palin

Jean Avery, a Princeton grad and originator of the very popular Moms4McCain site on blogspot.com, wrote the following piece. In my view, Jean Avery is in many ways just as much a star as Sarah Palin. This column appeared on http://mccainnow.com (which I urge everyone to join) and on Jean's own site. Hillary Supporters (and others) who are "moms" should consider getting behind Sarah as a vice-presidential choice. The DailyKos and Moveon.org crowds fear Sarah, which speaks volumes about her strengths. This is the late Wednesday/Thursday column.

My VP week on Moms for McCain would not be complete without mention of fellow Mom and Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, another "rising star" in the GOP, who has a unique ability to appeal to several key constituencies.

This election has been about breaking barriers, shattering glass ceilings, and overcoming stereotypes - and that's a good thing. I have discussed before why I don't think merely being a woman or minority candidate is sufficient, in principle or in practice, to earn the votes of Americans and win an election.

However, as my friends on McCain Now pointed out, the strategic reality before John McCain is that millions of would-be Hillary voters are about to come "up for grabs", a significant number have shown consistently they are willing to vote McCain. Choosing a female VP would be a strategic move to show disenfranchised Hillary supporters that women have a prominent place in a McCain White House.

That issue aside, Palin would be an outstanding pick even if she were equipped with different body parts. Palin complements McCain's strengths and would, I believe, strengthen the Republican party's national image.

With unheard-of approval ratings near 85-90%, former beauty queen Palin was not an obvious choice to lead a state that many of us associate with igloos and parkas. Like Jindal, she ran for office to fight the notorious corruption in her state (remember the "bridge to nowhere"?) and like McCain, fighting for responsible spending and accountable government has been a hallmark of her leadership.

Palin walks the walk on conservative values, as a cautious spender, avid sportswoman, 2nd-amendment defender, and true example of pro-life values in action. Already a mother of four, Palin became pregnant at age 44 and learned early in her pregnancy that her child would, most likely, have Down's syndrome.

Palin showed courage and character, leading throughout her pregnancy and even posing for Vogue. She went into labor early (been there, done that!) during a Governors' conference -- at which she had the opportunity to informally 'remove herself' from VP consideration, and didn't take it.

To be clear, I don't think we should hand this woman the vice-presidency because she gave birth a lot and in brave ways (although I have to admit, as a Mom, this appeals to my head and my heart). I also don't think we should take lightly the responsibilities of raising a special-needs child - but other women in Washington have done it, and it would be sexist and presumptuous to make that decision for her.

As long as she keeps her hat in the ring, I think McCain should try it on for size. For LOTS more on Gov. Palin, see http://palinforvp.blogspot.com/

Steve Adds: Even if you're not a mom or even a female -- to both of which I plead guilty -- I urge you to visit Jean's Mom4McCain site. Mothers are a critical constituency in this year's election, as they are in most. As for Jean, she's as good as it gets on the blogosphere.
