Obama Manager Accuses Clintons of Widespread Dirty Politics (Fraud by Hillary's Campaign)
The Atlantic ^ | 1/20/08

Posted on 01/19/2008 6:27:28 PM PST by nj26

David Plouffe, in a succinct statement appended to a released quotation from his boss, Barack Obama, said the Obama campaign was investigating more than 200 reporters of irregularities in Nevada.

“We currently have reports of over 200 separate incidents of trouble at caucus sites, including doors being closed up to thirty minutes early, registration forms running out so people were turned away, and ID being requested and checked in a non-uniform fashion. This is in addition to the Clinton campaign’s efforts to confuse voters and call into question the at-large caucus sites which clearly had an affect on turnout at these locations. These kinds of Clinton campaign tactics were part of an entire week’s worth of false, divisive, attacks designed to mislead caucus-goers and discredit the caucus itself."Plouffe asks Nevadans to call a toll-free number, (866) 675-2008, and report any other problems.

Obama, for his part, said he "ran an honest, uplifting campaign in Nevada that focused on the real problems Americans are facing, a campaign that appealed to people’s hopes instead of their fears."

"No harder than it will be our side to unite behind McPain or Romney or Huck."

We have the great uniter on our side: Hillary Clinton. Maybe you don't see it that way, I don't know, but she will do more to unite the Republican Party in November than anyone else could do.

So...America has passed the point at which the clintonesque cheating needs to be clandestine.

God, give us the strength to do what we must to save This Nation for our children.

It is absolutely appalling that you had to go through this.I would have been in tears.
When the country finds out that the out-of-staters stopped Barak’s momentum in N.H., I hope that Hill will be forced to leave the race.
Our Republic can not endure this kind of underhanded electioneering.
And if Hillary wins the nomination, I would hope that Dems of good will will not vote these crooks back into office.
And I believe that they will lose the AA vote and they should.

"since his dutiful wife won?"

This is definitely not the "inevitable" walkover she was supposed to have going for her. She is spending a lot of money she was going to use in the general election.

Maybe she will run out of money for her flying monkeys in the general election.

I’d rather ingest Drano; however I fear you are correct, unless the GOP gets their house in order. I certainly won’t practice saying “president clinton” but will disdainfully refer to her as Ms.Clinton much in the same way the lame stream media refers to President Bush as Mr. Bush.

Sorry, I did not go through this....I was quoting an entry from the Daily Kos where a person who did wrote down their experiences. I would never attend a democratic causcu, but it is funny how when others complain of Democrat dirty cheating tactics, it is blown off, but now the Dems are accusing each other of it.

I have no doubt that Hillary is spending more money than what she had planned on up to this point. Billy’s not going to be happy. His vacations are going to have to be curtailed. Soros will ante up some more though. He’ll make sure she stays in this thing. Nothing like supporting a loser.

“...in the same way the lame stream media refers to president bush as mr. bush.”

the lamestream media-an extension of the democrat party, or vice-versa. either arrangement is just as obnoxious and dangerous.

As a woman, I will vote for anyone but THAT woman because it is an INSULT to have someone like her to achieve “the first woman president” symbol when we know she will cheat in order to gain that title!
