Obama Camp Complains to Nevada Dems (Clintons violated rules - shocker)
AP via Breitbart ^ | Jan 23 01:19 PM | JIM KUHNHENN

Barack Obama's presidential campaign complained in a letter to the Nevada Democratic Party Wednesday that rival Hillary Rodham Clinton benefited from numerous violations of party rules during the state's caucuses on Saturday.

Obama aides said the campaign has received more than 1,600 complaints, including 300 that came in to a hotline at the time of the caucuses.

Attached to the Obama complaint was an instruction sheet that Bauer's letter attributed to the Clinton campaign. The sheet offers guidance on how to persuade caucus goers to caucus for Clinton.

One line states: "It's not illegal unless they tell you so."

"This certainly suggests that, for the Clinton campaign, the operative standard was, simply and only, what it could get away with," Bauer wrote.

The letter complained that the Clinton camp distributed a caucus guide to supporters that said caucus site doors would close at 11:30 a.m. The party's rules stated that caucuses would be called to order at 11:30 a.m. but said attendees had to be signed in by noon.

It’s really hilarious to watch the hate-filled moonbats on the leftist websites stutter and spew as they begin to realize just how rigged the Democrat System really is.

They have been utterly ignorant and useful idiots for a Machine with far, far diffent agendas than they have, and it’s just now dawning on them.

Ain’t Karma a biatch?

“exposing these lying cheating scoundrels.”

They’ve been exposed for the last 20 years and they still get elected. Obama’s doing the right thing in a way-but still beating a dead horse. I hope I’m wrong.

““It’s not illegal unless they tell you so.”

GREAT QUOTE!!!! Hmmm,, “It is not...” doesn’t that depend on the definition of “is”.

AKA: “There was no controlling legal authority,” al la AlGore.

On the other hand, if she should put Obama on the ticket as a running mate, I suspect she would be the one to die an untimely death - not because of Obama or his camp but because some nutcase would decide that getting rid of her would be the quickest way to getting a black President. We have way too many extremist nut-cases who will do anything to see to their own ends.

Perhaps Obama will be a worthy adversary, if he can expose the Clinton’s unethical strategies.

PThe worst outcome is if she wins the Dem nomination, and Huckabee wins the GOP nomination (doubtful). She'll squash him like a bug - the Clintons and their cronies from Arkansas know where all of Huckabees skeletons are buried..."

Could be what the plan was from the biginning. If they are that familiar with Hucky there's always the possibility that they've had some 'joint ventures' in the past. Which points to another possibility. Could it be that the Clinton's decided to run Huckabee to knock Fred threat out of the race and to dilute the Republican vote, paving the way for an EZ Clinton win? Ending up as top pubbie would have been a bonus.

What I'm saying is that he was already p3wned by the Clinton Cartel as governor?

The Clinton's motto: If you don't get caught anything you do is legal.

Perhaps some Dems will wake up

The key word there is “some”.

Unfortunately BDS will ensure this will be overlooked for the most part, much like the drive-by media overlooks the shortcomings of the hypocrat party, which are LEGION!

You are so right, the American people believe in Clinton and always will to vindicate their mistaken votes of 1992 and 1996.

“It’s not illegal unless they tell you so.”

Hmmm, that sounds similar to an excuse made by a certain Nobel Peace Prize (now known as the Booby Prize) winner:

“There is no controlling legal authority”

"It's not illegal until they tell you so"

It all depends on what the meaning of the word "is" is.

How funny that Obama is surprised by the tactics of Clinton inc. Repubs have been saying this stuff for years.

Obama needs to understand that the Clintons aren't out to win an election against him- they are out to "destroy" him any way they can.

It sure will be interesting to see if he “falls into line” if she wins the nomination.

A real man wouldn’t, we’ll see what Obama does.

He will no doubt about it or he will never get another chance at the white house and he will be wanting another shot in 2016.

I don’t know about this. I think that Huckster was in way before Fred announced.

I think you’re right. For some reason I thought Huck was a late entry.
