The article linked below is designed to draw attention away from Obama's potentially campaign-ending comments about PA voters.

Remember that.

I am posting this article link only because most people will no doubt be exposed to it because the Internet is Obamanet. Rest assured this latest piece of vile propaganda (unvetted "story" that Gore/Carter are hatching to force Hillary "out") is a BLATANT & TRANSPARENT attempt to draw attention away from Obama's latest disaster. It's also a BLATANT & TRANSPARENT attempt to demoralize Clinton supporters into thinking the game is all but over and to just rally behind Obama in PA. Don't fall for this SH*T. It's complete B/S spread by Obama surrogates and supporters.

So if you must read this rubbish, you can do so here:

Well now. That's the very reason you all decided to start this website, and why we're all here. No?

We will stop this vile, elitist, left wing, good ol' boys club, right here, right now. The pressure is on and they're pitching a hissy fit. Well I think that's a good thing. Gosh, it's amazing what they will resort to when they don't get their way.

But, what can you expect from Carter, (history's worst president) and Mr. Gore, (the president who wasn't.) Sour Grapes I say. Sour Grapes!

My only reply is why isn't this on the mainstream internet? It's on some weird, non mainstream sites.

And who is the author? I did a google search of his name and nothing really stood out. You'd think if he had this information, he'd be a big wig in the journalism industry.

Gore just came out on tv and said he didn't want any part of it. Was he lying? I really respect Gore, I don't think he was lying, so I think it's hogwash.

Even if this crap is true, the boat has already sailed. How many Hill supporters do you know who would be good little democrats and vote for this buffoon? Enough said. Bring them on it will only lower their credibility and book sales. Besides would it really surprise anyone if these too supported Obama. These two lost even with my vote – like I saw someone say at the protest – voting for McCain (if Obama wins) is liking having two votes, one he does not get and another for McCain (and its legal).

Good grief! What a bogus bunch of unsubstantiated nonsense. At least if the writer is going to spin a good tale, make it if not credible, at least have some positive leverage for Obama. This kind of alliance for BO could spell trouble. Think about it....

Followed to a natural conclusion, this situation just opens the door to Hillary for a number of excellent rejoinders that make her look like a superior, sympathetic and patriotic candidate!!!

First:

In addition to the fact that Gore has already said he wants as much distance from this campaign snarl as he can get, he is famously bitter about the corrupt vote count in Florida that robbed him of the Presidency!!! I invite him to step in so Hillary has a chance to bring up the topic of disenfranchised voters in Florida. His loss of the election due to Florida is a conversation I want to have back on the table!!!

Second:

The idea of Carter, (to whom Obama is being compared in a negative way) currently making awful press for himself and America by cavorting with Hamas, thinking his entreaties would have any impact on a patriot like Senator Clinton, is laughable! I actually hope he tries to pull something like this so Hillary has an opportunity to denounce and reject his ill-advised gamesmanship in foreign affairs! As some have said here before, Carter needs to go home and tend to his peanut farm and let more capable people stand guard over our country's allies in the Middle East! What do we remember best about the Carter administration? Oh, yea. The Iran, the Ayatollah and the hostage crisis! He and BO make a good pair, tho.

Bring it on. More points for Hillary in my book!!!

Doesnt it seem written by the Obama campaign and planted in a far away news source hoping that it does the rounds. What are the Scots doing scooping MSNBC for this story any way. Im sure they have a guy following Gore 24/7 begging for him to endorse Obama. No way they would have been outscooped on this story.

So Obama can insult small town America, lie about his involvement with Rev. Wright and Hillary is the one they want to step down? All for the good of the party? This is pure rubbish? A deflection for Mr. Teflon Elitist after his huge blunder. As*clown politics:mad:

“They’re in discussions,” a source close to Carter reportedly told the newspaper. “Carter has been talking to Gore. They will act, possibly together, or in sequence.”

According to the report, the two party elders will either meet with Clinton privately to urge that she withdraw her candidacy or they will publicly endorse Obama in the hopes that more superdelegates will follow suit.

OMG! I hope this isn't true. I'm pissed off!!!:mad:

Let's take what this newspaper says with a grain of salt. Gore said No, he wasn't doing anything until Convention -- I hope that's the case. But, Murray, you're right -- it is a diversion. That's what they are the best at.

BTW-- they are already trashing Elizabeth Edwards as not having integrity because she believes that Hillary's Health Care Plan is the best. These people are ruthless. Don't forget it. We just had our Senatorial Convention 2 weeks ago in Texas, and they are ruthless!

I aggree. They are also using other stories too. In my posting 2 days ago i predicted that this would happen. The story was going to break the day after Obama made the comments but they managed to convince their corrupt friends in the MSM to break it late friday. I believe they already had plans to divert attention away from the comments .This included resurrecting the Bosnia story. I believe they are also trying to attack Bill with stories about Colombia and The Library. Other attempts include making stories about Obama PA newspaper endorsements major news. When last did a Clinton endorsement make it to the MSM.
I think we should actually encourage Carter to endorse Obama . At present Carter is a liability , he is having bad press of his own about Hamas , anti -semitism.
All this should remind us to continue to canvas for HRC and keep up with the ground work. We must continue to spread the good and positive news about HRCs message to voters . I expect even more attempts to kill the story by the Obama campaign in the next few days.

I read in a article just a few mintues ago when I googled Hillary Clinton, and low and behold that Al Gore and Jimmy Carter may team up to pressure Hillary to leave the race, and let Obama have the nomination for the good of the party, If this happens, and Hillary is pressured to leave this race, this Black AmericanI will be staying home on General Election Day, or in protest to block Obama Presidency, I may vote for Ralph Nader or McCain or Vote for Hillary as a "Write-In Presidenial Candidate", I will not unite behind Obama or this Party if Obama becomes the nominee, because I just don't trust this man, and he's too inxperienced and arrogant.

I may just leave the Democartic Party all together and go Independent if Hillary is directly or indirectly pressured or forced to quit her campaign, I still see that some men in this country still don't like the ideal of a woman President running this country, if another man was runing against Obama in this party for the nomination, Obama would have been toast a long time ago, but since Hillary is a woman candidate, they rather have an novice elitetis Senator be the Democratic Nominee over an experienced strong woman candidate like Hillary. Ladies and Gentleman, all fellow Hillary Supporters, the Glass Ceiling for women to obtain the highest government office in America is still present, but we must still keep in encouraging Hillary that she still has strong support and backing to finish this race until the end no matter what happens, we are not going to sit back quitely and let these people push this woman around and boot her out of this race, no way, no how, it's just not happening, Hillary's "In It, To Win It".

We must continue to aggressively encourage her to fight the good fight and continue to give Obama a run for his money, and if Hillary should lose the Nomination anyway, we must encourage her to run as an "Write-In" Independent Presidential Candidate, I still believe she could still win the Presidency this way as well, this would be payback for some of her fellow Democratic Leaders and Obama Supporters throwing her under the bus for a Johnny Come Lately Senator who do not know waht the heck he's doing, if Obama becomes President, I predict that the country would be in a worser shape than it is now, God Forbid, We need to stop Obama before this happens, by pressuring the Super-Delegates and all Party Leaders and Officals not to give Obama the nomination, but instead, give it to a more experienced candidate, Hillary who is better prepared to clean-up and fix the mess Bush will leave behind in 2009, if Obama becomes the nominee, our party may be doomed and shattered for many years to come.

Annie, both graphs have either 'with FL & MI' or 'without FL & MI' written on each of them :)

And what does it mean when the votes are officially certified by election officials? The votes of The People have been counted and certified by each Secretary of State. Though the media and pundits, plus the DNC, may want to spin it otherwise -- they can't get around the truth. The voters have spoken. The votes have been certified. Don't let anyone bluff you with nonsense.

From LaLaLand,
Los Angeles 14/04/2008 04:09:44
Great Scot!!! I'm sorry but this story sounds like an Obamabot plant! First of all, Jimmy Carter, not very well thought of here in America. A failed 1-term media created President who didn't accomplish much except to pave the way for the Reagan years. Gore would never ask Hillary to stop; he has been quoted as saying he believes it should go all the way to the convention and it will. Gore owes the DNC nothing as they did not have his back during the 2000 election debacle. They pressured him to stop the recount for the "good of the country." That was a huge concession for him. His own party didn't back him, so what does he owe them now? NOTHING. He's sitting back and laughing at the DNC and its leaders twisting in the wind while Clinton continues to march on. So why on earth would he ask Hillary to stop for the "good of the DNC???" Obama is clueless about who the voters are in middle America. After his recent elitist comments about small towns he's shown his true feelings. How many more lies, blunders, boneheaded moves and comments can Obama make before the DNC comes to their senses and asks HIM to bow out and let Hillary Clinton take the nomination and win this thing in November? Hillary Clinton is the best candidate and completely vetted. Obama would be a disaster and the Republicans are just salivating at all the stuff they can pull out of their war chest to use on him. He will be swift boated and Willie Browned to death!

I haven't read it yet but from the postings, it is hard to believe Gore would do anything. I will see what I can find. As far as Carter, he was on one of the Sunday morning news this morning...I will have to go back to the tape to review which one it was. They were discussing his meeting and why he would do it. ah..found it. The following are his comments on endorsements and why he is doing the meeting with Hamas.

ABC News' Mary Bruce Reports: Former President Jimmy Carter confirmed in an exclusive "This Week" interview with George Stephanopoulos that he will not be endorsing any time soon. "The only thing I know is that, I have not made an endorsement, and don't intend to, until the time of the convention."

On the state of the Democratic race, Carter said he agreed that superdelegates should not overturn the will of the people but that "any superdelegate who wishes to deviate from that opinion should be perfectly free to do so."

Just -- and I got permission, by the way, from my children and grandchildren, and their spouses, to reveal their intention. I haven't yet revealed what my intention is directly, or my wife.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Speaker Pelosi has said that the superdelegates should not overturn the will of the people, that that's not what they are supposed to do, and that they should basically vote for, or not overturn, the winner of the pledged delegates.

Do you agree with that standard?

CARTER: I basically agree with it. But I think that any superdelegate who wishes to deviate from that opinion should be perfectly free to do so.

As a matter of fact, some of the top superdelegates in Massachusetts, for instance, publicly endorsed Obama, and then their state went for Mrs. Clinton. My hometown, my county, my state went overwhelmingly for Obama. But if I decided later on to support Mrs. Clinton, I would feel free to do so."


-----
"It's very important that at least someone meet with the Hamas leaders to express their views, to ascertain what flexibility they have, to try to induce them to stop all attacks against innocent civilians in Israel and to cooperate with the Fatah as a group that unites the Palestinians," Carter said in an exclusive interview with George Stephanopoulos on ABC News' "This Week."

"There's no doubt in anyone's mind that if Israel is ever going to find peace with justice concerning the relationship with their next-door neighbors, the Palestinians, that Hamas will have to be included in the process," Carter added. "I think someone should be meeting with Hamas to see what we can do to encourage them to be cooperative and to find out what their attitude." However, the 39th president was also quick to point out that his trip is not an official visit, and comes out of the ongoing work of a Carter Center project to promote peace in the Middle East.

"I'm not going as a mediator or a negotiator," he explained. "My overwhelming commitment is to support fully the peace effort that has been supported and endorsed by President Bush and by Secretary Condoleezza Rice, and by the Israelis and the Palestinians."

I just read a front page article on foxnews website which states that J. Carter and Gore are trying to team up against hillary and urge her to quit, and if she doesn't they'll openly endorse obama. these guys are screwing us up. they really want to eliminate hillary at all cost.

The truth is both candidates are neck to neck close. I really mean that. There is so much coming out that DNP probably should be concerned about BO at this stage. He is fast unelectable, if not so already. More news is still to come.

Meanwhile you have seen Jayling's summary of statistics. It is ENTIRELY accurate. Hillary can win this in November. She has no new surprises to come in October.

So, stop listening to all this who wants her out of the race. first of all it may or may not be true. If it is, it is going to put some mud on their faces for coming out with such ridiculous statement. Most politicos know that.

What WE can do is make phonecalls. I think we are all committed individuals here. Making phonecalls is easy and the most effective way to get the voters. For the most part, they actually want us to reach out to them. Most of them are still not well informed. Undecided are ACTUALLY LISTENING!!! It is our time to reach them!

The DNC is ONLY worried about money. BO has all those millionaires contributing to him and I think it's slim pickins on the home front. They want this to end because of the money - plain and simple - and they want to ditch Hillary even though BO is fast living up to his initials.

I think everyone is a little edgy from the long, long, wait between primary's.
I do have to admit, and I am guilty myself, of trying to make myself feel better by posting negatives. It just does not work for me. Even if the msm is negative, it is something that we are all aware of, and nothing under the sun seems to help get the negative monkey's off our backs. Obama's crowd will forgive him till the cows come home. We, or most of us felt the same way about Bill Clinton after his escapade in the oval office. Although I hated what he did like the devil, I still tried to justify it as "What the hell, it was only sex". I feel that way about Hillary, she can do no wrong in my book. I don't enjoy going to various newspaper web sites and posting comments. I find most of them are pro Obama filled with the crudest form of hatred and misinformation, and after I post my comments, I don't really feel better, because I know I haven't changed any persons mind about who they will vote for. The only people who can change minds are the candidates themselves through negative misspeaks as we witnessed the past couple of days. I personally enjoy more positive stuff. You can't just post anything under the sun on the official Hillary site. Most people do comment about enjoying the uplifting benefits from the positive comments. This is one of the most personal elections for me in all my years. I want Hillary to win beyond most anything I've ever wanted. I think she will win. Whether we can get her all the way to the White House might be another story, but at least it will be the first step.

AND Carter is getting senile. The Israelis don't want too much to do with him since he's playing great statesman (who couldn't win a second term) with Hamas. I'm hoping Gore is too smart to get involved.

While we're at it, why didn't the powers that be put these primaries closer together so that a decision could be made by this time of year rather than get their shorts in a knot and deprive people of their right to vote.

He can hole up with his Hamas buddies and build them some houses.

I am tempted to quote way too many posts in this thread.

1. Gore always speaks out when people put words in his mouth. If he said he is staying out of this then he will reiterate that.

2. Carter is an earlier form of Obama. Little known, pushed through by media as likeable and disasterous 1 term president. Who cares who he endorses?

3. The Dem. party isn't DONE. Listen to the everyday people answering questions to reporters. They are excited. When in history has there been this much interest in PRIMARIES? Even if the media somehow ushers BO through as the nominee we can simply write in Hillary and move on. The DNC will learn a valuable lesson and hopefully learn from their horrid mistakes.

4. It is fine to keep bugging me about making phone calls. I know that those emails are sent in mass and you can't pick and choose who to delete. I am glad they are being sent as we are all adults and can click "delete" without getting our feathers ruffled. I get daily emails to contribute and I am equally glad they are being sent.

5. The harder they push Hillary to get out the deeper many people will dig their heels in to support her. I have friends that could have voted either way and chose Hillary mainly because the media was really pissing them off. Not the best reason but a vote is a vote.

There is room here for varying opinions. That is a difference we need to stress that sets us apart from the BO dominated sites.

HIGHEST INTEREST AND INFLATION RATES EVER POSTED IN THIS COUNTRY BY CARTER, AS WELL AS THE FIASCO IN IRAN, WHICH HE HAD TO DEPEND ON A REPUBLICAN TO BAIL HIM OUT ON, AS FOR GORE, WHAT DID HE DO TOWARDS HEALTH CARE, OR EDUCATION, HE WAS IN OFFICE FOR EIGHT YEARS, HE DID NOTHING, NOW HE TALKS ABOUT MELTING ICEBERGS, AND THE WORLD IS SUPPOSE TO COME TO A HALT, THAT IS IF HE KNOWS WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT AT ALL

TWO MORE LOSERS, IF GORE WANTED TO HELP THE PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY, THEN THROW YOUR HAT IN THE RING MR.GORE, AND WORK FOR THE PEOPLE, STOP ENDORSING THOSE WHO WILL LICK THE BOOTS OF ANY AND EVERYONE THAT THROWS A DOLLAR HIS WAY

YOU CARE ABOUT YOURSELF CARTER AND GORE, NOT THIS COUNTRY, BECAUSE I HAVE NOT SEEN IT FROM EITHER ONE OF YOU, SO STAY ON YOUR PEANUT FARM CARTER, AND GORE, GO FIND ANOTHER MELTING ICEBERG AND LEAVE THIS COUNTRY TO PEOPLE LIKE THE CLINTONS WHO HAVE HELPED MANY AND CONTINUE TO DO SO

It won't happen; this is total propaganda!!!

:eek: I will be SHOCKED into becoming a Republican if Gore were to suddenly come out and endorse that liar NObama! I have such respect for Gore. I met him and Tipper at a private event for her photos 2 years ago and got my pics taken with both of them. I told him he's been MY POTUS all this time despite what happened. I could never believe this man again if he turned to NObama. I would be hurt and betrayed at all he believes in.

That said, I firmly believe this is a planted story to once again deflect NOBama's foot-in-mouth disease over his bitter remark. Explanations aren't working so it's time to plant a lie and see if that will distract people. :rolleyes:

Way to make HRC's case for her. LOL Carter said to be one of the worst pres and Gore couldn't even take Clinton's endorsement and beat George W... uhhmmm.
