CNN interviews Democrat Michael Bennet and wants to know why Obama, who supported Michael Bennet in the primary and stumped for him a few months ago hasn't been back to campaign for Bennet who is in a tight race with Ken Buck. BENNET: "The personal reaction from Independent voters...might not make it helpful" (Video)

Where's that hope and change that gave Obama an 9 point edge in Colorado in 2008?

Obama will turn out to be the straw that broke the Camels back...for the Crats. Alinski never told them what to do once they slimed their way in to power.

You know, that video you “borrowed” and used as bait to get blog hits?

Yeah, that one.

CNN Infobabe: Keep in mind that President Obama was here to help Michael Bennet during the primary campaign, and he did a telephone call right before the primary election, but he has not been back. I asked bennet why that's the case, he said, you know, right now he's trying to focus on the "disinformation" that's out there; he's trying to target independents, and that's part of the reason. Listen to this:

Michael Bennet: The personal reaction by the independent voters that you've described based on a lot of the political rhetoric that's (unintelligible) might not make it helpful and I think the President should be in places around the country where it will be helpful, and we are running this race on facts on the ground in Colorado, what people really are interested in working on.

(soundbyte ends)

(here they insert what sounds like a muscle car flying down the road, almost a "breaking wind" kind of sound)

CNN IB: Translation: President Obama's not so popular among independents in this state; that is the key swing block that Bennet has to win if he's going to retain his seat, so he's doing this one on his own.

You know, it's kind of interesting, that sound they insert just after Congressman Bennet's sound byte. It actually sounds kind of like "blowing a raspberry," but it's not exactly that. There's no doubt it's been added in post-production. I wonder what that means? Is CNN giving Bennet a raspberry?

I’ll say it once again: We hate RINOs but imagine how livid all the SDS Weatherman radical types must be. They work and struggle all these years to make it possible to get a Marxist implanted in the White House and in their moment of triumph....he proves so incompetent that he scuppers the whole plan.

It would break their harts. If they had any.

They will scurry for cover once the subpoenas fly.

Here’s the direct link to the video... You know, that video you “borrowed” and used as bait to get blog hits? Yeah, that one.

I thought only the Left was offended by the profit motive, and am surprised to see a Freeper resent patronizing a blogger who provides a service (i.e.: a link to a video that I would not otherwise have seen). I don't know hap, but I was not injured by my visit to his blog and I appreciate his bringing the clip to my attention.
