Presidential Nominee Vows To Fight Back Against Character Attacks Better Than John Kerry Did In '04 MIDDLETOWN, N.J. (AP) ― Unlike his Republican opponent, Democrat Barack Obama is still raising money for his presidential campaign, and he turned Friday to rock legend Jon Bon Jovi for help.
Bon Jovi and his wife, Dorothea, hosted more than 100 people for dinner on their mansion lawn by the Navesink River in Middletown, N.J. The price was $30,800 a person, to be divided between the Obama campaign and the Democratic National Committee.

"We're not going to be bullied, we're not going to be smeared, we're not going to be lied about," Obama said. "I don't believe in coming in second."
Earlier in the evening, Obama attended a $2,300-per-person reception at the nearby home of veteran party fundraiser Phil Murphy. About 200 people, including the Bon Jovis and New Jersey Gov. Jon Corzine, attended.

“I don’t believe in coming in second.” - I just believe that I am the Second Coming!
Perhaps not, but there's an increasingly good chance that you're going to get your tail kicked.
Is the girl pikcing on Obama?
Oh, how charming.
Why is it that the Left always accuse you what they are doing?
That’s why I buy country music c/ds and attend country music concerts. Most of them either keep their mouths shut or support conservatives.
I’ll take John Rich and Grethen Wilson over the has-been rockers anyday. When I spend my hard earned money I want entertainment not a lecture on politics.
It could be genetic. Think of what happens in certain cultures when cartoons are drawn that mock the One!!!!!
Nope. I don't, even if that is what he is trying to sell the masses.
I think he has bought into the Rev. Wright's theology hook, line, and sinker. That mandates 'victimhood' and anger.
When the 'magic' is gone only the anger remains.
LOL!!! Nice one!
Spoken like a true victim... Obama is a pansie.
All-of the other Mus-lims
used to laugh and call him names,
They never let poor Bar-ry
join in any Jihad games!

That’s what I thought I said.
It’s pretty clear that the mockery gets to him, and that’s why McC continues to bait him. He’s dumb enough to take the bait.
Americans have many questions about BHO.
We don't want lies. We want the truth.
1) Establish your right under the constitution to be eligible to run for president. Big Birth and Citizenship questions.
2) We welcome all the truth about your efforts to promote abortion and deny failed-aborted babies their right to exist.
3) We welcome the truth about why you think you should be running for President. Who told you that you were so important. You jumped on this wagon awfully early and tacitly have been using race as a reason that people could or should not stand up to you.
I don't want an affirmative action president. I want the one most qualified.
You don't have to believe it, it just happens.
We’re not going to be bullied, we’re not going to be smeared, we’re not going to be lied about. We’re not going to resort to the same tactics, but we are going to confront them.”
The Obamaination has no idea what is going to hit him . The present attacks on his non-productive stint in the Senate and his political history have only been conventional . Wait till we go nuclear on him .
