Heisenberg Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 Simple question . . . Has Hillary recaptured the momentum? Is Obama in trouble now? I would prefer the usual Obama haters to skip this thread and get some opinions not based on negative opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heisenberg Posted March 5, 2008 Author Share Posted March 5, 2008 Little premature to think that way don't you think? I don't really think so. Not only do I think the potential results tonight raise question to him gaining the nomination . . . I think this hurts in the long run simply because it will cause more bitterness within the party and less time to mend it . . . regardless of who ultimately wins the nomination. If that makes sense.

skinsfan07 Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 no. It looks like they might split. With Obama winning Texas and Vermont and Hilary winning Rhode Island and Ohio. That would be solid for Obama and solid for Hilary. I don't see him losing any momentum or Hilary gaining much. Both won big states. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paredskinsfan Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 If you would prefer the "Obama haters" as you call them to skip this thread then why ask for anyones opinion at all? Yes, in the past 2 or 3 days he has definetly lost some momentum to Hillary. If she takes Texas and Ohio there may still be a chance we could have 2 qualified canidates running for president of the united states in Mccain and Clinton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
expensivegift Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 He's definitely in more trouble then he was during the period of 'Obamamentum' The big issues now are that the media may start to become critical of Obama after granting him a free pass the past year. He's also lost a lot of credibility flip flopping on NAFTA by talking to Canada saying we really won't pull out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was basically referring to 1 or 2 people. Who would post something similar to this: "Yes, Obama has finally been exposed as a socialist muslim terrorist that says a lot of words with no meaning and people are no longer being hypnotized. He travels to Africa and loves Muslims. Besides the fact that he is Muslim his middle name is also "Hussein". Doesn't this raise questions?"

Duncan Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 Yeah, her hate-mongering is working apparently. It's amazing how far the bar has been shifted on the definition of hate.

He's also lost a lot of credibility flip flopping on NAFTA by talking to Canada saying we really won't pull out. i thought that was proven to be false, by the Canadian government themselves. Canada defended Democratic front-runner Barack Obama Monday over accusations from rival Hillary Clinton that he is secretly at ease with a hemispheric trade accord which he publicly blames for losing U.S. jobs. .... But the Canadian Embassy in Washington released a statement essentially backing up the Obama camp's version of the meeting between adviser Austan Goolsbee and officials at the Canadian consulate in Chicago.

DjTj Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 Not only do I think the potential results tonight raise question to him gaining the nomination . . . I think this hurts in the long run simply because it will cause more bitterness within the party and less time to mend it . . . regardless of who ultimately wins the nomination.I really don't buy the "bitterness" theory. Are people seriously going to vote Republican because of something that Hillary said about Obama?If people are being convinced by Hillary's argument about experience and her scare tactics about the War on Terror, then McCain could have made the same arguments while wielding a bigger resume. Hillary will mend any fences by naming Obama her VP. But as to your original question, I think this is just a bump in the road for Obama. I think it's good that he is being challenged right now, especially on the experience and security issues. He is probably going to win Wyoming and Mississippi, and there will be a month off to work with superdelegates, maybe have a debate, and to develop a strategy to counter this attack. If he can successfully repel Hillary's attacks, then he will have found a winning message against McCain. If he can't ... well maybe he wouldn't have had a chance against McCain anyways.

Politics is a dirty business and if your guy can't weather a little scrutiny than he doesn't deserve the nomination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though I have stated numerous times that I wouldn't hesitate to consider voting for McCain. But in the end his great promises of hope and change will with out a doubt sway your vote. Listen to Obama when he is talking "off the cuff", without his writers he has no idea what's going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
