It appears the Colorado simulated town hall was not so good for Obama.

MSNBC has a talking head (bad moustache man) who is saying the pelosi talking point of “we have not heard from ‘real america’ about this issue, only loud voices.”

Tommorrow Obama is at a VFW CONVENTION!!!!!!!!!!

Colorado damage control

HNN only had obama soundbites, no question clips of audience asking questions.

Notice, the difference.

Democrats show Obama goebeling in order to make their point of obama is correct.

when attacking republicans, CNN and HNN showed people yelling and incomplete.

MSNBC and CNBC (as in Haines in the am) cut away or simply cut the audio of people at the townhalls and spew DNC talking points.

Chuck Todd on pmsnbc calling “public option” wiggle room.

Translation Obama is conditioning the left to dump public option in order to save his viability.

I think Obama is losing ground fast.

Todd said only a “remaining few” republicans are trying to work on a bipartisan solution. Which republicans are this oblivious? Snow? McCain? Grahnesty?

‘Obama Calls “Kill Grandma” argument “imply dishonest” ‘ is the crawl, obviously Obama Deathcare has hit a nerve. Remember obama’s cronies are big advocates of DUTY to die. (from each accordign to their abilities to each according to their needs and all that...)

Sens. Kent Conrad, D-N.D., former Sen. Tom Daschle, D-S.D.; Rep. Charles Rangel, D-N.Y.; Sens. Arlen Specter, D-Pa.

Tax Cheats and Dead Man walking to speak in favor of health care reform. Nice.

The question is this. Will The Marxist Democrats be able to get 50 votes for socialized medicine? They will try. Our mission is to srike enough fear in to the Democrat Senators that they can not get 50. I just hope we can hold them until after the November elections in NJ and Va.

Thank you for the ping. Sure makes it easier to get on the thread.

One small thing not being mentioned is whether or not president zero will veto any bill that does not include the provisions he’s touting to everyone. He’s talking a good game but that does not mean the final bill will include what zero claims it will do. Since he does not know what’s really in any of the health care bills, I do believe he will sign whatever is put in front of him and make excuses for the things that are worst in it.

MSNBC is now spinning to save Obama via “if ANYTHING passes, just one tiny line passes, then it is a HUGE victory for Obama.”

(for those in rio linda, democrats are not saying ONE victory makes a victory streak)

I think this is now Obama telegraphing that public option is off the table and this “save Obama” tour is about his base not independents.

obama is read for a fork, he is done.

State-promoting media (and a lot of beltway ‘conservatives’) have declared Sarah Palin practically a dunce, but one week after she used the phrase “death panels” that part of the proposed Senate bill has been removed.

Who has the clout? Palin or Obama?

Judge Jeanine Pirro is on Fox&Friends.

She is complaining that she has been receiving the Axelrod emails from the White House.

She says she has never sent an email to the WH nor signed up to be on any WH related list.

[Will Gibbs try to spin this again?]
