Clinton creates ‘whip team’ to quell anti-Obama protests ( Via Politico.com)
In an unusual move, Hillary Clinton’s staff is creating a 40-member “whip team” at the Denver Democratic convention to ensure that her supporters don’t engage in embarrassing anti-Obama demonstrations during the floor vote on her nomination, according to people familiar with the planning.
The team, which is being organized by longtime Clinton staffer Craig Smith, is working in conjunction with Obama’s floor organizers to help foster the image of a unified front during a roll-call process Clinton herself has described as an emotional “catharsis” for her disappointed supporters.
“If people get down there on the floor and want to start blowing kazoos and making a scene we want to make sure we’ve got people who stand in front of them with Obama signs,” said a person involved in the planning.
“Is it typical for a losing candidate to have their own whip team? No. But it’s also not usual for a losing candidate to get 18 million votes either,” said the person.
Clinton spokesperson Kathleen Strand emphasized the team would not seek to convince delegates to vote for the former first lady, but would hand out Clinton signs to supporters who requested them.
“We have been and are working closely with the Obama campaign to make sure we have an exciting and unified convention,” Strand said. “Our delegate whips, along with the Obama delegate whips, are a part of a team that will be on the floor of the convention to make sure delegates have everything they need, whether that’s answering questions or passing out signs during Hillary’s speech. The whips are a traditional part of every convention’s floor operations.”
Plans for the squad were finalized last weekend. Although some former Clinton staffers balked at policing their own supporters, its ranks were filled by people itching for a floor pass — not an easy get for Clinton’s troops at the Obama-run convention.
Typical Liberal fascism, quell all dissent. She must have taken her lessons from the Bush Administration. (What? I don’t have a script!)
The Puma’s are not going to be happy about this one.

In this audio Obama coldly claims two doctors helping a baby born alive after a botched abortion would be a burden for the aborting mother when he is arguing against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act at the Illinois state legislature April 2002
This proves to me. That B. Hussein Obama is nothing more than a Lying Liberal.

I have never really formally wrote this before. But Here goes:
If you have a mainstream or a “Not so mainstream” website, blog or whatever else and you’re interested in reading the dark ramblings of Libertarian leaning, Paleo-Conservative on your website. E-mail me and let me know. I will add your address to the list of people that I will be sending my articles to.
I figure if I am going to get my name out there and get people to reading my stuff, I am going to have to sell myself to the masses.
So, there it is, all in it’s media whoring greatness.
Update on this sad story:
She is not dead. But the prognoses is quite grim.

News is Via CNN:
Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones of Ohio, a Democratic superdelegate and one of Hillary Clinton’s most ardent supporters, was hospitalized in critical condition Wednesday after suffering an aneurysm, the hospital said.
< Dr. Gus Kious, chief of staff at Huron Hospital in East Cleveland, Ohio, said that Tubbs Jones had “very limited brain function” and that the aneurysm is in “an inaccessible part of her brain.”
“She remains in critical condition at present in our intensive care unit. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family at this very difficult time,” Kious said.
Earlier reports had said Tubbs Jones had died.
This statement from Senator Clinton is in response to the news of Congresswoman Stephanie Tubbs Jones’s aneurysm and hospitalization. We are all praying for Stephanie and her family during this difficult time.
“Stephanie is a strong, remarkable woman with an incredible fighting spirit. My thoughts and prayers are with my dear friend Stephanie and her family at this difficult time,” said Senator Hillary Clinton.
Senator Barack Obama made the following statement regarding today’s news about Congresswoman Stephanie Tubbs Jones:
“Michelle and I are saddened to hear today’s news about Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones. She is a passionate and tireless advocate for the people of Cleveland and a devoted public servant for all Americans. We send our heartfelt prayers to Stephanie and her family at this very difficult time.”
This is a very sad story. What makes it worse, is the fact that some News agencies and yes, even some bloggers totally screwed the news up and reported her as dead. What makes it even worse is some idiotic Hillary supporters are going around saying that Obama had her killed. This is totally asinine. They should be ashamed of themselves for disrespecting the family like that.
As I wrote before, my thoughts and prayers are with the family on this truly sad day.
Update: Rep. Jones has died. RIP

September 4, 2008 at Cleveland State University. Congresswoman Tubbs Jones was scheduled to travel to Denver on August 24, 2008 to attend the Democratic National Convention as a superdelegate
You know Politics is one thing, but real life is another. This woman is/was a fighter, a real fighter. She would get on MSNBC and go toe to toe with Tucker Carlson. She once told Tucker Carlson to “Get a life”, live on the air. Which I thought was absolutely hilarious. It is a sad day in politics and in the black Community.
There is a good possibility that she might not be dead. Someone blew it somewhere…

Looks like people are waking up from the Obamassiah stupor and seeing the Marxist magic negro for what he really is. Which is a very good thing for America.
Via Zogby International.
As Russian tanks rolled into the Republic of Georgia and the presidential candidates met over the weekend in the first joint issues forum of the fall campaign, the latest polling includes drama almost as compelling – Republican John McCain has taken a five-point lead over Democrat Barack Obama in the race for President, the latest Reuters/Zogby telephone survey shows.
McCain leads Obama by a 46% to 41% margin.
And McCain not only enjoys a five-point edge in a two-way race against Obama, but also in a four-way contest including liberal independent candidate Ralph Nader and Libertarian Bob Barr, the poll reveals. In the four-way contest, McCain wins 44% support, Obama 39%, Barr 3% and Nader 2%.
This latest Reuters/Zogby poll is a dramatic reversal from the identical survey taken last month – in the July 9-13 Reuters/Zogby survey, Obama led McCain, 47% to 40%. In the four-way race last month, Obama held a 10-point lead over McCain.

McCain 46% 40%
Obama 41% 47%

Here’s hoping that the rookie from Chicago gets his proper place in this election, at the BACK of the bus, where he belongs.

It was another sleepless night for me. When I finally did crash it was at 6:30 a.m. this morning. So, I am most likely not going to be writing novels today. It will be short postings with quotes, mostly…
