So today, at politico.com, some blogger named Roger Simon, posted that Clinton is going after Obama's pledged delegates. Later on, he said that Obama's people were probably doing the same thing. But here's the thing: Clinton is NOT poaching Obama's delegates! This just makes me nuts. Grrr. Anyway, here is what I posted in response to his entry:
This is the precisely the problem with TOO many Obama supporters - THEY DON'T DO THEIR HOMEWORK!!! Just because this guy is SAYING Clinton is doing this does NOT Mean she is doing it! Here is what her campaign site says:
"Hillary Clinton Campaign Position On Pledged Delegates:
There are inaccurate reports today about how the Hillary Clinton campaign intends to pursue the nomination. Here is our official position:
We have not, are not and will not pursue the pledged delegates of Barack Obama. It's now time for the Obama campaign to be clear about their intentions."
SO DO YOUR HOMEWORK!! It is important to CHECK THE FACTS FIRST before you attack Clinton!
And frankly, I am sick and tired of how the media is CONSTANTLY attacking her, and giving Obama free pass after free pass. He can make sexist comments (and has), he can lie about her positions, like NAFTA, and does (ignoring the fact that HE spoke in favor of NAFTA in 2004!!!), he can steal her Economic speech (and did), and HE started saying negative things about HER in his speeches FIRST, all with a free pass.
That is all to say: Look before you leap onto that bandwagon, folks.
Holy cow, HOW is she supposed to compete against these fallacious attacks?!! Sheesh!
Today is a big primary day in Wisconsin and Hawaii - if you have time to make some calls, that would be great!
