Oh what a tangled web Dems weave when they practice to deceive...
Obama: Well, first of all, Judy, thank you for the question, and thanks for the great work you do on behalf of the culinary workers, a great union here.
George joins our team from Douglas, Arizona, having earned his associate’s degree in administration of justice from Cochise College in 2000. He obtained his bachelor’s degree in political science and criminal justice from Western New Mexico University. He is currently completing a master’s degree in ethics and policy studies at UNLV. He plans to pursue doctorate and law degrees, practice corporate law, and become active in politics.
I notice Hillary’s flying monkeys repeat the charge that Russert attacked her personally. Russert asked a policy question. There was nothing personal about it at all.
Oh what a tangled web Dems weave when they practice to deceive...
In addition to being totally devoid of content and meaning, these debates have now become out-and-out scams. All credibility is being taken out of the electoral process. Not that politicians were ever all that credible.
A Harry Reid Staffer?
and this: George Ambriz is an Executive Director of the ¡Sí Se Puede! Foundation and is a recruiter at UNLV.
Unforgivable. There’s not much going on in this election that is above board.
The under- (or un-) reported aspect of this is the light it casts on the Democrats’ refusal to participate in a debate moderated by Fox News. The logical explanation is that all of the Dem candidates and CNN are in on the staging of MULTIPLE events. Despite the contrived intra-party dust-ups, they collectively are conspiring to make Dems appear more favorable than Repubs.
Fox apparently doesn’t let the DNC control the agenda for the events, and the candidates might actually have to answer some REAL questions. Couldn’t have that, could we?
Stunning. Good thing Al Gore invented the internet.
BIG BAD BUMP !
Or you'd need a scanning electron proctoscope to find them.
I didn’t see these particular “undecided voters” on TV, but it has always been my impression that these “undecided” people are used by the lamestream networks to promote the Democratic candidate. We on FR were not fooled, but many people are fooled by these kinds of tricks. I’m so glad some of the truth is coming out about this practice.
CNN called them “undecided voters” because CNN was undecided about which questions CNN would have the plants, uh, I mean voters, ask.
You FReepers are paranoid.
CNN is too intelligent to be hoodwinked like this ;)
Somehow, CNN thinks we do NOT have the internet at our disposal. Amazing.

Younger Blacks Tell Democrats To Take Notice
By LYNETTE CLEMETSON
Published: August 8, 2003
The debate had become a familiar one for LaShannon Spencer. As director of political affairs for the Democratic Party of Arkansas, Ms. Spencer, 30, is charged with taking the pulse of voters and keeping them connected to the party.
But at Cajun’s Wharf, a restaurant and bar on the banks of the Arkansas River that is popular with young professionals, Ms. Spencer’s political pitch was met with skepticism.
‘’Democrats just assume my political affiliation, based on my ZIP code or voting precinct,’’ said Khayyam Eddings, a 31-year-old labor lawyer, referring to his predominantly black neighborhood. He was one of three African-American men engaged with Ms. Spencer in an animated discussion. ‘’I don’t cast my ballot based on learned behavior.’’
Mr. Eddings’s comments were emblematic of what some Democratic strategists fear may be a growing problem: The party is perilously out of touch with a large swath of black voters — those 18 to 35 years old who grew up after the groundbreaking years of the civil rights movement. It is a group too important and complex to ignore, many strategists caution, when analysts are predicting another close election.
Democrats have traditionally counted on more than 90 percent of the black vote. Blacks 18 to 35 make up about 40 percent of the black voting-age population, but turnout among young blacks was so low in the 2000 elections that they made up only 2 percent of the entire vote.
Democratic leaders are expressing concern about the disengagement. Young blacks are responding by warning the party not to take their votes for granted.
‘’Not only do I not see myself as part of the base,’’ Nnamdi Thompson, a 30-year-old investment banker, told Ms. Spencer at the restaurant, ‘’I wish the Democratic Party would stop seeing me as part of its base. We have more power as voters if they have to come and court us.’’
A 32-year-old lawyer, a friend of the other two who did not want his name used because he is in state politics, said: ‘’I question whether the party sees us at all. First they calculate who they do not want’’ to alienate. ‘’Then they decide on acceptable losses. We seem to fall into the acceptable losses.’’
Ms. Spencer, who is also African-American, said their frustrations were not unusual. ‘’These are the concerns I hear over and over,’’ she said. ‘’These are people who care, people the party needs. If we could only convince them of that.’’

Former Topeka Mayor James McClinton is no longer a candidate for the city manager’s job in Arkadelphia, Ark., that city’s mayor said Friday.
Interviews for the three finalists were scheduled for Thursday, but McClinton had called and written a letter requesting his interview be rescheduled, Arkadelphia Mayor Chuck Hollingshead said.
The other two candidates were interviewed Thursday. They are Jimmy Bolt, Arkadelphia public works director and interim city manager; and LaShannon Spencer, of Little Rock, Ark., political director of the Democratic Party of Arkansas.

This needs to be heard and spread. BUMP
bttt
The problem is that the sheeple cannot understand this. They don’t watch CNN, and they don’t know what an “operative” is. All they know is that Bill and HRC are there to “hep” them.
Absolutely no surprise here. I’ve been saying for years that the MSM would pull out all the stops and launch the biggest propaganda campaign in the history of the planet in an attempt to elect Hillary.
This election will be a barometer of how much power the MSM still has. If they still have the power to swing a presidential election, Hillary wins.

This is the same DBM that pays for the polls that tell us what candidates are supposedly in the lead.
Puuuush...
This needs to get national media attention. Of course if this was Republicans it already would be national media talk.
