no love in the air (not even sex!)
So this little gem came to my in-box yesterday from Air Obama’s, er, I mean, Air America’s Thom Hartmann:
“The issue at hand for the Democratic Party for winning in ‘08 is not losing to McCain but losing to a divided Democratic party. The first thing Obama should do if nominated is put Hillary on the ticket. Will the Republicans have a field day with her on the ticket? Yes! Is their some bad blood in the water due to some negative campaign strategies on the part of the Clintons? Probably. Can Hillary be a tough fighter able to play tough allowing Obama to stay higher above the fray? Yes!”
Thom, we know that you want us, but your pick up lines just aren’t working. (What is it with Obambots and early eruptions?) This primary is still “active,” your candidate has not climaxed, and no amount of premature ejaculation will change that!
If you’re going to try to bed us, do NOT insult our intelligence. The Republicans had their way with Hillary for fifteen years, and they’ve only made her “sexier.” Not only does she know how to canoodle with the GOP, but she can also perform the necessary S&M when they’re playin’ naughty. Whatever baggage she supposedly has was thoroughly picked through years ago, and she’s still hot. So, is that the best you’ve got? (If so, pass the remote!)
Now Obama’s Louis Vuitton trunk is still new and exciting for the Rethugs. They’ve just begun to rummage through his nefarious connections with the likes of Auchi, Rezko, Ayers, and Wright. Will Rezko flip if he’s convicted? Will Wright have another outburst? And what of those rumored videos of Michelle in the Trinity pulpit? Sounds delish! Karl Rove must be salivating.
Oh, and Thommy, propagating the meme that ‘the Clintons’ have run a negative campaign is such a turn off. They say politics ain’t beanbag. Telling voters Obama is less-than-endowd in matters of (well, everything) is not campaigning negatively. However, accusing our gal of doing “anything to win”, calling her ‘Bush/Cheney-lite”, trashing her husband’s legacy, repeatedly playing the race/class card, adopting Republican scare tactics like “Harry and Louise”, having members of your campaign question the validity of her tears and remaining silent while surrogates try to force her from the race is…well, let’s just say it won’t get you laid!
Finally Thom, why should we allow you to seduce us when it’s clear that we’d be doing all of the work? Having Hillary fight Obama’s battles while he remains “above the fray” is hardly an enticement to hook up with you, and will probably leave us blue (if you know what I mean). In a presidential race, you don’t get to lay back and enjoy it.
So Thom, we decline your offer to canoodle. But don’t despair. Maybe all of those younger, educated voters that Donna Brazile keeps touting will keep you from being lonely at night. Just don’t expect them to return your calls in November.

Great post and great site! The presumptive nominee must be in lots of trouble (and no wonder) if his pack is trying to win over HRC’s supporters. The “progressives” supporting Obama have actually resurrected McCarthyism as a political strategy. According to cable news, anyone who supports Clinton is ’suspect’ and must be ‘denounced’ loudly, blaringly and at all times…Obama’s change platform is negative change - it’s regressive.
Now, they’re trying to win us over? Amazing. They’ve managed to make McCain look less noxious by comparison.

Here is the comment I posted on Thom Hartman’s blog, following the receipt of his email entitled “Obama-Ask Hillary First”:
Thom,
I think Senator Hillary Clinton should tell Barack Obama to take a hike. She wins, when matched up against McCain, in most states and has won a majority of the popular vote. You are most presumptive in saying Obama should ask her; remember Obama doesn’t have the nomination yet. I would never vote for Obama. In my opinion he is a skinny coke smoker, who thinks there are 57 states in the USA. He is an empty suit backed up by Wolf Blitzer and the CNN boys, who got us pumped up for the Iraq war. He is also fronting for the Chicago mob and the Chicago mercantile and stock market boys, who engineered the mortgage meltdown and speculated up artificially high gas prices. I used to respect you Thom, but no more; through your contacts and probably huge financial rewards from the Teamsters Union, you are just another paid hack for Obama.

thanks all. sexual innuendo aside, the continued push to get her out of the race is appalling. if they are so sure that he has the nom, why do they keep it up? simple, it’s because they’re worried. he outspent her and got glorious press and he still can’t keep her down. now they are trying to demoralize us, tell us Florida and Michigan shouldn’t be counted, and supress the votes in the remaining contests. this so-called “new type of politics” sounds very oppressive and undemocratic to me.

Poor Thom Hartmann ain’t too spiffy with that grammar stuff either. Thom’s not getting lucky tonight.

What is it with Obambots and early eruptions?
Oh that’s easy. They’re mostly first time voters. They VIRGINS.

“Not only does she know how to canoodle with the GOP”
Not only that, but she knows how to canoodle with Dominionist groups that would eviscerate the First Amendment religious protection so many non Christian are thankful for.
Not my candidate.
