McCain Camp Response to Obama’s Ad “Pocket”
ARLINGTON, VA – Today, McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds issued the following statement on Barack Obama’s latest ad – “Pocket”:
“Barack Obama’s latest negative attack ad shows his celebrity is matched only by his hypocrisy, after all it was Senator Obama, not John McCain, who voted for the Bush-Cheney energy bill that was a sweetheart deal for oil companies. Also not mentioned is the $400,000 from big oil contributors that Barack Obama has already pocketed in this election.”
I have called Hillary’s campaign office. I also faxed. I also sent a letter snail mail to Bill Clinton. I called and wrote Evan Bayh, letting him know, if he accepts VP for obie, I as and Indiana resident will not vote for him in the election in November, if in fact Hillary does not get the nom.

TIPS for writing ‘LETTERS TO THE EDITOR’ in newspapers
How to write & edit effective letters that will get published
———————————-
• Be Concise, brief. Avoid rambling sentences & big words.
• State Your Point or argument early, clearly & succinctly; in letter’s intro.
Start with– and maintain focus on– your most important point.
• Stick to a single subject & stay on it. One issue per letter.
• Limit the number of points. Don’t rehash points.
• Be logically organized.
• Limit it to 2 to 5 paragraphs; each one 2 to 3 sentences.
• 200 words is usual limit. Keep to it! The more they have to edit, the less control you have of what gets printed.
• Let your personality show.
• No personal attacks!
• A hint of restrained anger or humor or irony can be effective sometimes.
• Know your subject; do research. Use facts, figures and expert testimony when you can. Readers respect the opinions of those w/special knowledge & expertise.
• Explain how the issue will affect your subject (ie: voters, the country, our future, a certain group of people, etc, etc).
• Identify the responsible person (the decision maker, elected official, etc).
• Offer a solution (RE: your criticism, argument, etc).
• Include phone numbers or address of who to contact (for action, etc… if relevant).
• See it from reader’s perspective. Will it all make sense to someone without your knowledge & background.
• Close with a short restatement of your position or a pithy comment.
• Read letter to a friend, for objective input.
Don’t mail it the same day you write it.
Write and edit it; then put it aside until next day.
Reread it in a fresh light & you’ll spot things you didn’t see before.
• Know that your letter may be edited for length, content & readability.
• Hone your opinion-letter writing style.
Learn the newspaper’s style and audience.
Read other ‘Letters to the Editor’ in different papers to learn.

Definitely gotta give Murphy credit for commitment and perseverance! I’ll stick with it until I absolutely know that Hillary is not our candidate for POTUS. But I do not and cannot and will not support BO’s proposals and platform, for the Democrat Party, and I will never vote for him under ANY circumstances.
Got left downstairs with the answer to :
#625 mzebest, #626 mimi1020
As much as I despise BO, in the interest of truth, I offer the following :
His statement is referring to the 50 states and six U.S. Territories and Outlying Areas as seen on the following government site. So it’s not clear due to his poor use of the English language, however it does seem to refer to both states and territories. That does not, however, explain why he has previously referred to the 57 states in speeches with no mention whatsoever to territories etc.
U.S. Territories and Outlying Areas
http://www.usa.gov/Agencies/State_and_Territories.shtml
* American Samoa
* Federated States of Micronesia
* Guam
* Midway Islands
* Puerto Rico
* U.S. Virgin Islands
Great WORK Puma commenters! Keep them coming. Apparently a lot of Jennifer’s readers are moderate Republicans, so the comments over there arent as over-the-top ugly as you find on the Obama Movement sites. iow, commenting there wont give you a headache and an upset stomach.

I’m sticking with Hillary in November if we are so lucky, but I’m sticking with the PAC into the next 2 decades if it takes that long to accomplish our goals
I had saved this article regarding delegates from WaPo, no addresses or contact info.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/interactives/campaign08/primaries/2008_superdelegates.html
well, maybe just a little — depending on your intestinal fortitude.

Just a note that I worked on your letter to Superdelegates last night, as promised, and I will probably be finished with it tonight.
So I should have it ready by tomorrow….. keep tuned.

* TOPIC: MICHIGAN & FLORIDA! *
A little bird whispered I should look at Hillary’s web page today. Did you guys see this letter from Obama to the Credentials Committee?? Posted on HRC’s site?
I can’t blog right now, but will BBL!
Please read & comment!!! Wow I think this is Great News!!!
~~~
Letter from Senator Obama to the Chairs of the Committee
Hon. Alexis Herman
1333 H Street, NW
Washington, DC 20005
James Roosevelt, Jr.
14 Meadow Way
Cambridge, MA 02138
Eliseo Roques-Arroyo
PO Box 190998
San Juan, PR 00919
Dear Credentials Committee Chairs:
In just a few weeks, our Party will convene in Denver for our National Convention. This will be an historic event that will showcase our vision for changing the direction of our country.
The delegates and alternates who gather on Monday, August 25 will reflect the talent, energy and rich diversity of our Democratic Party. The delegates will come from all 56 states and territories. As these delegates go about the important business of the Convention, I believe Party unity calls for the delegates from Florida and Michigan to be able to participate fully alongside the delegates from the other states and territories. Accordingly, I ask that the Credentials Committee, when it meets on August 24 to approve the delegates for the National Convention, pass a resolution that would entitle each delegate from Florida and Michigan to cast a full vote.
As a candidate for the nomination, I supported the DNC’s efforts to establish and enforce a schedule for primaries and caucuses that would broaden the opportunity for Democrats from all regions of the country and all backgrounds and walks of life to have a meaningful voice. An unprecedented number of voters participated in our Democratic nominating process. We all owe a debt of gratitude to Governor Dean for his principled leadership during this long and challenging process.
As we prepare to come together in Denver, however, we must be – and will be – united in our determination to change the course of our nation. To that end, Democrats in Florida and Michigan must know that they are full partners and colleagues in our historic mission to reshape Washington and lead our country in a new direction.
With warmest personal regards,
Barack Obama
19 TrishfromCanada ~~~Once again……the goals are?
lol
luggage and gift this is too funny, Bo’s boxers up for auction
They said the birthday present was valuable…maybe it was the other half of Florida and Michegan.
Mountain Song
http://blog.pumapac.org/pac-goals/
#31 HillstheOne What a crok! He never supported anything, he is such a liar. And Dean better watch out, he’s complimenting him now but if he secures the nomination, Dean will be the next to be thrown under the bus!
32 MountainSong
I’m sorry…I know you are trying to get back to the business at hand…I’ll try to refrain, but maybe if I turn the TV off that would be better.
Trish had a good idea today, but can’t remember what it was..something about finding out more info on the delegates.
I so want Hillary to be the Dem nominee. If she was, I would have no doubt that she would be Pres.
However, I am also pragmatic. I have called, emailed, faxed, registered voters, canvassed etc. all in the name of Hillary Clinton. But if her run for 2008 ends in Denver, I will continue on. As I know she will, in her own way.
For me, saying this movement is mainly for getting Hillary on the ballot is not enough. At this point, that’s like saying the civil rights movement was only about Rosa Parks.
There is so much more. And Hillary can only do so much. I will still push for a reform of the DNC. That means an end to caucuses. I will still protest mysogyny wherever I experience it, but particularly within the public sector including the political process and MSM. And I will still work for the truly democratic principle of one person/one vote.
And after defeating Obama, I will vote for Hillary in 2012.
ladyhawkee:
yes but who cares what he tries to do or cover up, point being if each delegate gets a full vote that is huge!!
Also, Hillary posted this on her site under News Releases & it came out yesterday.
OK I’ve got to run, but PUMAS please read & comment!
I just think this is some of the news we’ve been waiting for!!
Fans realize Obama is not divine

#37 1gypsy4mc
Just sent you an e-mail
And yes about finding out which of the Black Supers Bill Clinton promoted.
If he had not won just small half of the pie, it would be much natural for him to say our party… The party majority is ours, ours is ours, ours is not yours. If he’d like to do what majority people wanted, he’d have quit. Still DEAN, and all BO backers – where is the surge???
MURPHY… i put three comments on that blog… hey you guys get busy…LOL… I know you are
Back from Monday Fliers Part I. I’m enlarging my catchment area and discovered that car washes (not the self clean, but the one’s where you wait for 20 minutes for the machine and others to dry your car) are great spots for drop off. Everyone’s just hanging around looking bored waiting for their car to be finished.
#35 TrishfromCanada~~~mmmk, and if Obama IS elected, what’s left of the Democratic Party?

I’m sorry I got carried away..please repeat where you want us to go. Thanks
Just got this in my email.
*********Press Release*********
F.Y.I. — Here’s something different. TheCityEdition.com has just
published an “Election ’08 Rogues Gallery of American Journalism”, a
Who’s Who of bad boys and bad girls at the top (and bottom) of the
media food chain.
The gallery features mug shots and cheap shots from some of the
country’s top newscasters, along with a series of thumbnail sketches
that suggest evidence of a conspiracy to sabotage Sen. Hillary
Clinton’s presidential campaign.
According to the Gallery introduction, “The journalists helped to
perpetrate a fraud, betraying the public trust and depriving the
nation of one of its most competent leaders since F.D.R. Here’s a list
of some you can thank for keeping her name off the November ballot.”
Not surprisingly, NBC/MSNBC dominates the list of Rogues Gallery
inductees. Chris Matthews and David Shuster are cited for making
controversial, at times misogynist remarks about Clinton. (Matthews
referred to her as a “she-devil”.) Nightly News Anchor Brian Williams
is accused of faking a “spiritual epiphany” in his coverage of the
Obama campaign on the eve before the New Hampshire primary. During
the same broadcast, reporter Andrea Mitchell claimed that Clinton’s
campaign was collapsing. She repeated the allegation on the eve of
several subsequent primaries. Yet Clinton won New Hampshire by three
points and went on to compete in all the subsequent contests, winning
big on Super Tuesday and carrying 9 of the last 13 primaries.
Other networks honored with inclusion in the gallery are CBS (Katie
Couric, Steve Kroft), ABC (Jake Tapper, Barbara Walters and the other
ladies of The View) CNN (Anderson Cooper, Jack Cafferty, John King and
Jessica Yellin) and Fox (Bill O’Reilly and Major Garrett). Print
reporters represented are the New York Times editorial board, Time
Magazine’s Mark Halperin, and Newsweek’s Eleanor Clift and Joe Klein.
According to the website, Klein remarked to CNN’s Campbell Brown last
spring that the only way Clinton would drop out of the race would be
if someone “exploded an IED under her car”.
Even Ms. Magazine failed the fair and balanced test,
TheCityEdition.com alleges. The feminist publication did not a run a
single story about Clinton’s historic candidacy for president,
although it did find room for two articles by Donna Brazile, the
Democratic Party official accused of manipulating the primary schedule
to deprive Clinton of delegates in Florida and Michigan.
Rogues Gallery web page
http://www.thecityedition.com/Pages/Archive/Summer08/RoguesGallery.html
TheCityEdition.com is based in San Francisco. In April, it launched a
public pressure campaign to get the Senate Commerce Committee to
investigate major broadcast and print media outlets for violations of
their F.C.C. licensing agreements and/or anti-trust laws in connection
to their election coverage. The inititative is ongoing.

Left this comment on Washington Independent article:
I knew he wasn’t divine a LONG TIME ago… I must admit that I was not a Hillary Clinton supporter from the start… seems that I was influenced by the press and their dirty dealings in the beginning… I was not an Obama supporter either… John Edwards was my choice. Well the field was cleared and Hillary and Obama were the choices. I found myself in a quandry and wondered which o ne? I started doing my research and found that the press was so gung ho on Obama that the hairs on my neck stood up as a warning… hmmmmmmm … every time I did not listen to that little voice I got in trouble… so, wow…. YouTube became such a big deal that the press had to report the Rev. Wright issue… oh boy, now I knew why I had the hair on the back of my head stood up. I knew that I was listening to a politician who had learned over 20 years how to sway people to his point of view. I was right… a politician with emotional appeal and nothing else… Change… what change? Never any substance to his speeches. No knowledge of how to make the changes. I cannot and will not support Obama…
I am proud to a PUMA and I am proud of Hillary Clinton and her courage in the face of the sexist and biased Main Stream Media. I have stopped watching CNN as a result of Wolfe Blitzer and Donna Brazile, esp. her race baiting ways and their calling for her to leave the race before all the votes were counted. I deplore MSNBC and their sexist and mysogenist commentators.
When will this country come to its senses and see what is really happening… probably when enough of us PUMA’s point it out to them. They will never silence the voices of the people… we are the backbone of America.
As one eloquent black woman wrote on one of the other blogs (she is a disinfranchised voter from Michigan): My roots are not in Africa, my ancestors were, my neighbors roots are not in Europe, their ancestors where, my roots are in America. I am a person of color, but I am a American I am not an African and make no mistake my loyalties lie with America Rev. Wright. I do not wish to separate myself nor my family from America I do not wish to see a black America and white America and yellow America and brown America.
I AM AN AMERICAN!!!! I am a PUMA!!!! and I am proud to scream both those phrases
Clinton campaign pays rest of its IU bill
http://www.usatoday.com/news/politics/election2008/2008-08-02-Clinton_N.htm
CHALLENGE:
I challenge myself and anyone else between now and the convention to:
1. Remain focused solely on activities that are directly related to the convention.
2. Refrain from getting distracted by posts unrelated to actions pertaining to the convention.
3. Remain positive and focused on our efforts.
If I can do it, anyone can because I am an eternally pessimistic, anxiety-ridden, fearful, worry wart who sometimes thinks that if I stay positive I’m just setting myself up for a crash and/or am just being pollyanna.
BUT, when atheletes and artists train, the psychological training is powerful. You focus only, only, only on your performance, be it shooting the ball into the basket, playing the cello piece perfectly, etc, and nothing else. You block out all else from your mind. This is a proven strategy that maximizes performance outcomes. It doesn’t mean that we can WILL what we want to happen at the convention to happen, but it means we can train ourselves to remain singularly focused and will not be distracted.
At top #46……. the information from Murphy at the top … article about PUMA Pac
mlhath#38 — you said it sister!

______________________________________
i AM PLANNING ON ATTENDING
Because of Pelosi’s bullheaded action to adjourn the House of Reps without doing a damn thing about the energy relief we need I shall, then, relieve myself (uh, right) with these money saving ideas:
1. Stop payments on my car insurance
2. Park the van as an unregistered vehicle and shift to my museum beauty of only 30,000 miles with roll-down windows– a 1998 Ford Escort . Impliment fake stickers to save more money (I used to do that for years when I was young and poor and daring. I may be 54 and retired now… but still find excitement in life by daring it). Van used as a back-up. Will dare to use it if necessary.
3. Eat beans, rice and chicken livers more often and less sirloin and salmon. No more brand names either like Fruity Pebbles and Starkist; generic products instead. Definitely no more wine.
3. An occasional meal at a fine restaurant is still okay, but without a beverage. Free water, please. That’s better.
5. Go back to the good old days by hand washing my clothes and hanging them out to dry on a clothes line in the back yard. That’s going to be soooooo cool again. Get to meet the neighbors that way.
6. No I won’t get rid of the cat
7. Will withdraw my marriage proposal to a beautiful young woman I met recently.
8. Buy toilet paper in bulk. Have added a Sears catalogue to my bathroom cabinet for emergencies.
9. No more donations to Hillary Clinton’s party (wait I’ve already done that one). Umm, make that… will demand my money back with a bow and arrow, OR ELSE.
10. Window shop for kicks. Go malling only with coupons.
11. Don’t tell cashier she gave me the wrong amount of change in my favor.
There. It’s a start.
Just goes to show you… who needs government when you’ve got a mind like mine.
Goodbye, Ms. Pelosi. And don’t bother coming back. I don’t need good for nothings like you.

For a quick preview – the original COLB used to create the KOS COLB image belongs to a female and does not belong to Obama. Another follow up report will reveal exactly who the original underlying COLB did belong to. Trust me when I tell you it is going to be one hell of a major twist that no one would have seen coming. I had to quadruple check my results because I did not even believe it and I currently have a few other people double and triple checking my results as well just to be 100% sure.
That said, and in the interest of fairness, if the people responsible for forging the COLB come forward and admit their liability the name of the original COLB owner will not be released publicly. It is only fair to give the guilty parties a chance to take responsibility for their actions before it embarrasses a lot of people and ruins some people’s reputations.
As a heads up to the guilty parties – the names and dates have already been restored – as has the fact the owner is a female born in the 70’s. That is all that will be revealed publicly for now.

If anyone still believes the KOS COLB is legitimate after reading this article they should seriously think about seeking professional help.

I’m not sure what the intent of your question is, but my answer is we will determine what is left of the Dem Party after the GE. If Bo wins in August, what each person does with their vote is up to them. Regardless of that, the Delegaes, SD’s and elected officials must be held accountable for everything we see today, sexism, reverse racism, bribary and more.

If you find that when you hit the submit botton and it gives you that error page type page – try copying what you wrote before hitting that submit button. That way if you get the error page you can just go back and repost it again.
I think most of us are getting that off and on, maybe because the site has so much traffic it is losing its mind a little bit
.
bmw60 I saw you posted on another site. Are you Barbara from Mississippi?
Let us know about the radio exchange.
By the way, I LOVE you!!!
Lady~ I am no geek, fer sure.What if you closed down and then came back to us through justsaynodeal? Maybe that would unblock something
NO……… Barb from PA
if bmw’s not african american i think making the case for why many african americans think he is a fraud could be tricky. one thought that comes to mind: bmw gets asked if he’s african american. if he’s not and then says, “no”, he could be challenged as to how he is some kind of expert on this issue. (i may be projecting after having a somewhat confrontational experience when i called into a show and got on the air. you have to be ready to think on your feet and be prepared for anything – having your comment relatively ignored or having it really explored).
just my two cents, or as dances would say, 7 cents after being adjusted for inflation!
bmw – i really hope they take your call. getting this kind of exposure is fantastic! there are so many listeners!
i posted several days ago that i think this is a good thing to do – getting your call on a show because of the amount of exposure (but you really have to have your act together since you have precious few seconds to make you case). but you’d be amazed how well you can find subject matter that’s not directly about the election but that you can link to it. health care, for example, is talked about a lot on npr and other shows where folks can call in. it’s a perfect example of how, if your call is taken, you can squeeze in the point of why and how clinton’s plan is so needed, etc.
Dean is probably on break with everyone else for the month of Aug.
Answering machine for Howie. Did send my daily letter earlier
Called Dr. Demento’s office and left a voice message, including a line that the “current DNC strong-arm tactics — awarding one contender the nomination in a primary process that was essentially tied, are not worthy of any political party in The United States of America.”
No I am not african American, but respect the thoughts of honest humans who happen to have different colored skin than myself. I have blog comments that mean very much to me that speak to the thoughts of Americans who happen to have darker skin…. They are Americans as I am!!!

let us know how it goes bmw
Prowled…..called and got a real person……Made a cordial hello and started where she stopped me in mid stream and said “Hillary’s names will be on the roll call…” I didn’t get the opportunity to go much further as to how about the nomination. I was expecting an answering machine and was caught off guard.
Maybe I need to call back and first ask, well what about her name into nomination.

Palestinians donate $29,500 to Obama
August 4, 2008
By Aaron Klein
WND – Palestinian brothers inside the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip are listed in government election filings as having donated $29,521.54 to Sen. Barack Obama’s campaign.
The donations would violate election laws, including prohibitions on receiving donations from foreigners and guidelines against accepting more than $2,300 from one individual during a single election, Bob Biersack, a spokesman for the Federal Election Commission, told WND in response to a query.
The contributions also raise numerous questions about the Obama campaign’s lax online donation form, which apparently allows for the possibility of foreign contributions.
Last week, the Atlas Shrugs blog outlined a series of donations in 2007 made to Obama’s campaign from two individuals, Monir Edwan and Hosam Edwan, totaling $29,521.54.
In an online form on Obama’s campaign site, the Edwans listed their street as “Tal Esaltan,” which they wrote was located in “Rafah, GA.”
Rafah is not a city in Georgia. The Atlas blog immediately raised concerns that the money may have been donated from the Gaza Strip town of Rafah.
The Edwans’ donations are listed in both FEC filings and other election filing sites, such as CampaignMoney and donordata.org.
Monir made 20 donations ranging from $717 to $2017.50 from October through November 2007. His donations totaled $24321.41. Hosam made seven donations ranging from $508.63 to $1725.96, totaling $5,200.13, all in October 2007.
A WND investigation tracked down the Edwans, who are brothers living in the Tal Esaltan neighborhood of Rafah, a large refugee camp in the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip.
The Edwans are a large clan that include top Hamas supporters.
Speaking to WND, the two brothers praised Obama and admitted giving the money online to his campaign. They said they are not U.S. citizens or green card holders but are citizens of “Palestine.”
The Edwans denied they are affiliated with Hamas. Palestinian sources in Gaza confirmed the Edwans in question are secular, but could not say whether they supported Hamas.
Monir and Hasam Edwan denied their financial transactions online – listed as donations in U.S. government election filings – were actual donations to Obama’s campaign. Instead they claimed they purchased about $30,000 in Obama T-shirts from the presidential candidate’s online store – a contention that did not hold up during a WND interview, when they changed their story several times.
“My brother Hosam and I knew that Obama will be a big hit even before he became a candidate. We knew the guy would be a celebrity in Gaza so we decided to invest the amount of $29,000 to buy Obama T-shirts from his website and sell them in Gaza,” Monir Edwan told WND, speaking by cell phone from Gaza.
“I know on the back of this story Obama rivals will present our business as a donation and they will try to use this story to let Obama fall, but I’m telling you, we bought T-shirts,” Edwan maintained.
Edwan said any profit made from purportedly selling the Obama T-shirts was not returned to the Obama campaign.
“We have nothing to do with the Obama campaign. We just like Obama and believe he will be the best for the Palestinians and for the world.”
At first Monir Edwan claimed he sold the T-shirts in Gaza for around $9 and that a profit was made.
“Some young men even bought the T-shirts for 60 shekel ($17.29), which is a lot to spend in Gaza on a T-shirt, but that is how much Gazans like Obama,” Edwan claimed.
But it was pointed out to Edwan the T-shirts for sale on Obama’s website are listed as $20.08 and that selling the merchandise for less would not yield a profit.
“Maybe we sold the shirts for a lot more. I can’t remember now,” said Edwan.
Asked why he would purchase T-shirts at such a high rate and pay the cost of shipping when he could pay a company to produce T-shirts for less, Edwan replied, “We wanted the shirts to come from the campaign.”
But Edwan could not explain how he managed to get shipments of T-shirts into the Gaza Strip during the months he claimed to have purchased the merchandise, since Israel imposed a tight closure of the Gaza Strip starting in June 2007 that lasted until June 2008, when the Israeli government agreed to a cease-fire with Hamas in Gaza.
“We don’t want to cause any damage to Obama’s campaign,” was Edwan’s reply.
Edwan said he wants Obama to be president.
“Not just the people in Gaza but people from all over the world are rooting for this great man,” he told WND.
FEC spokesman Biersack told WND contributions from overseas are allowed if the donations are coming from U.S. citizens or green card carriers. But he said accepting money from foreigners would violate election provisions.
He said there are strict guidelines against accepting more than $2,300 from one individual during a single election.
“I am not familiar with the particulars of the case, so I am commenting in general. The FEC will have to examine all the circumstances before determining any wrongdoing,” Biersack clarified.
Obama’s campaign did not return WND phone calls or e-mail queries.
That the Edwans were able to contribute any money to Obama’s campaign from Gaza opens questions into the methods used by the presidential candidate’s website to accept online donations.
The website donation form asks each donor to affirm he or she is a U.S. citizen and is above the age of 16 but doesn’t require donors to prove their citizenship status, such as providing a social security number. The form further requires the donor to affirm the contribution is not coming from a corporation, political action committee or lobby group.

By right, the DNC should place into nomination the name of any candidate who brings delegates to the Democratic National Convention. However, we have come to realize that the DNC has taken on an anti-democratic identity, to its disgrace, so supporters of Senator Clinton are forced to become supplicants.
OK. If that’s how ‘they’ want it…they’ll get it, along with the resolve of the Clinton delegates to see her nominated as the only electable Democrat. For many this is no pro forma.
And we are reminding the Super Delegates that we are holding them responsible for nominating the only electable Democrat, Hillary Clinton.

Prowl completed:
Called Deans office,talked with a nice man.Asked him to ask dean to put Hillary’s name in nomination .He stated that Dean has nothing to do with this and he didn’t know what puma was telling me but it was wrong.That it has always been done by the Delegates putting someone in nomination.So I asked him if this ment that we ,18 million supporters,would have a voice at the convention?He said, absolutely yes.
test
OH NO! Murphy went in after her!!!
Did we get 2 prowls today?
PROWL – NASTY, NASTY, NASTY
Just completed today’s prowl. The woman who answered the phone professionally enough – “Chairman Dean’s Office – but discovering the purpose of my call, interrupted. ‘Her name will be on the roll call, just like other conventions!’ I corrected her. ‘But I want her name allowed into nomination.’ She sounded nasty. ‘It’s the same thing.’ ‘No,’ I corrected her, politely. ‘I am a lawyer and I have read the DNC Call; I know that when a candidate whose name has not been accepted into nomination on the ballot, receives roll call votes, these votes are recorded as “Present.” Please tell people this.’ Then she said HRC would be on the ballot (whatever this means to her).

Proud DaySunday, August 3, 2008 6:17 PM
From: “Karen L. Thurman”
Dear Susan,
Today is a proud day for all of us who fought so hard to ensure Floridians votes are fully counted.
Just minutes ago, Sen. Barack Obama sent a letter to the DNC credentials committee urging them to restore the full vote of the Michigan and Florida Delegations, proving his commitment to uniting the party and ending the uncertainty surrounding the process.
With Florida’s economy in recession for the first time in 16 years, our state leading the nation in job loss, and we are number two in foreclosures, Floridians in every corner of our state are excited to elect Barack Obama and other Democrats this fall to bring change to Washington and Florida. The people of Florida know Barack Obama and other Democrats will rebuild our economy, create good jobs, and lower gas prices and homeowners insurance rates.
I want to thank Barack Obama, the Florida Congressional Delegation, the Democrats in our Legislature, and voters across Florida for fighting to have our votes count. This is a proud day for all of us.
Sincerely,
Karen Thurman
Congresswoman Karen L. Thurman
Chair, Florida Democratic Party
——————————————————————————–
Paid for and authorized by the Florida Democratic Party, http://www.fladems.com.
I think it’s a little to late for obama to being doing this now to get votes. When we wanted our votes to count here in Florida for Hillary he said no and fought it now that he THINKS he has all the votes we get a full vote! This has just made us more angery and we want to do something about it!
I usually do not post much but read lots…..I am not going to post anymore. I have tried 3X on a very important phone call I made to day and it was a little to long to re post again…3 X’s enough.
It has happened before also after doing multiple emails am getting to much “junk” emails and it is not my system just had everything checked out and also use my disposable email acct.
So I will continue to do what I can in my area, state and contacts but I have basically given up on the other stuff.

“Obama Shifts Stance on Oil Reserves”
I like the way the MSM calls an Obama Flip Flop.
He “shifts his stance” what a crock of bull!
MSNBC sucks!
lol…..if you can hear me knock three times
Ladyhawke………send Murphy an email..it could be something on your keyboard…….
“We need a hot air balloon and a very long rope to pull them out of there. Right, Sky?”
“Right, Penny! You go get the ballon, and I’ll go get Barack Obama.”
Okay, so I just called Dean’s office and the little dweeb on the phone said as long as she has the signatures and she signs the petition then her name will be put into nomination. So I said I certainly expect the delegates from Florida and MI to be able to vote for her and he says “if they want”. I asked about the woman from WI and he didn’t seem to know anything about that. I then said “you know Obama has no chance of winning”. He got all flustered and said “oh no I don’t” and then he hung up on me.
lmao……dances
Ah the new Sky King

At least this site works better than hillaryclinton.com Never, but NEVER could I post my braindroppings over there.
Speaking of that site, I sure miss poochgirl.
I bow to the master dances……..your good!!!!
I for one am very sick of these jerks that come out and speak for Hillary and say she doesn’t wish her name to be placed in nomination. It would seem, by now, she is most aware of the existence of us and other groups whicxh support her and if she truly didn’t wish not to be placed in nomination, she would just hold a pre-convention news conference and say so. Am I wrong about this?

Maybe he will never endorse Obama!!
Maybe he won’t ever have to endorse O’blahblah when he and Hillary are back sleeping in the Whitehouse.
The big dog can send a spokesman out to say, I was going to endorse you but I didn’t like the dirty tricks you pulled on my woman! You can kneel down and kiss her ring and get back to the senate and do your job, Jr. Senator with no experience!
Did anyone here already contact delegates? I can’t find phone #’s however seems you can email right from page Murphy gave us. Am I right or wrong? HELP
if she didn’t want it …..she would have had the perfect timing at the san fran fundraiser, she would have had time to explain it too…….imho

Trust me. Sky King came from the deepest recesses of memory! Thanks.
Okay, I have to get back to work. Lurking on and off. You’re all doing great work today!!
Maybe the site has been invaded by a worm, or a bug. Maybe we should all debug our computers. Dunno. It is frustrating. I’ve been able to get on today, but have had to repost up to 3 times each time.
Posted once at #189 — but am reposting… since I feel it’s a worthwhile read. Has everyone seen this?

yes — it must be that links are being cut out — I’ll double-check our settings.
#212 DancesWithPumas ~~~LOL @ “deepest recesses of memory” Sky King goes way back to my early childhood. LOL
How are we going to explain this to the press…….”well Lady fell in….and Murphy went in after her….then they just dissappeared…….come on you two if you are going to dissappear can you at least take BO with ya?????……………..You got to admit it would certainly solve a lot of problems all at once

and that doesnt happen very often I can tell you!
oh my goodness, invalidresponse you have me crying with laughter.
I wore a wig to disguise myself and posted flyers all over the County and city Hall bldgs, and hit every bathroom stall.
oh Murphy and Lady went into a room together and only Murphy came out???? LMAO……sorry I’ll stop…..
I called Chairman Dean… the guy who answered seemed non-plussed and bored. Because of that, I did not follow the script, I stated my name, I am Massachusetts Democratic voter, and I am asking that Dr. Dean place Hillary Clintons name in Nomination…
I felt that the guy answering the phone was coming from a place of arrogance almost, it was like, “yeah I know why you are calling, tough cookies lady…”
Oh Well, lets keep calling. If they do not get the message now, they will definitely get the message in November. Dean will be HISTORY, and the DNC will move back to D.C. where it belongs.
Remember Remember the 4th of November
This is a test!
any boston area PUMAS who are planning to protest BO in our fair city today, PLEASE email me asap!

Well if ninty % left the party after they cheated are nominee of her rightful place in History just how many is in the number of 83% hmmm
Just thought we needed to laugh sometimes…..
Finally, I’m back. However, apparently it wasn’t my computer and I closed down at least 15 pages I was working on, it was too much to try and save them. What I was trying to post was Ricki Lieberman’s Electibility Watch (EW). Don’t know if Murphy posted it for me or not.
1. YES! A PETITION BY HILLARY’S DELEGATES TO PUT HER NAME INTO NOMINATION
By right, the DNC should place into nomination the name of any candidate who brings delegates to the Democratic National Convention. However, we have come to realize that the DNC has taken on an anti-democratic identity, to its disgrace, so supporters of Senator Clinton are forced to become supplicants.
OK. If that’s how ‘they’ want it…they’ll get it, along with the resolve of the Clinton delegates to see her nominated as the only electable Democrat. For many this is no pro forma.
And we are reminding the Super Delegates that we are holding them responsible for nominating the only electable Democrat, Hillary Clinton.

From: Karen L. Thurman
Subject: Proud Day
To:
Date: Sunday, August 3, 2008, 6:17 PM
Dear S—–,
Today is a proud day for all of us who fought so hard to ensure Floridians votes are fully counted. Just minutes ago, Sen. Barack Obama sent a letter to the DNC credentials committee urging them to restore the full vote of the Michigan and Florida Delegations, proving his commitment to uniting the party and ending the uncertainty surrounding the process.
With Florida’s economy in recession for the first time in 16 years, our state leading the nation in job loss, and we are number two in foreclosures, Floridians in every corner of our state are excited to elect Barack Obama and other Democrats this fall to bring change to Washington and Florida. The people of Florida know Barack Obama and other Democrats will rebuild our economy, create good jobs, and lower gas prices and homeowners insurance rates. I want to thank Barack Obama, the Florida Congressional Delegation, the Democrats in our Legislature, and voters across Florida for fighting to have our votes count.
This is a proud day for all of us.
Sincerely,
Karen Thurman
Congresswoman Karen L. Thurman

Hello all-
just got in, left message at the DNC.
I called the Daily News earlier today after reading Marc’s blog @ Tom in Paine. Both reporters on that story, Michael Saul and Tom DeFort are on vacation this week, convenient, isn’t it?
Anyway, I left a VM for DeFort saying I couldn’t believe he would write such a fabricated story w/ no evidence, I left my cell #, which unbelievable he called back w/in 30 minutes but I missed the call! He told me in his VM that I didn’t know what I was talking about, that he stands by his story and he has evidence.
Oy vey!

I think it may be a printer head cleaning issue. Try going through your printer properties and clean the heads a few times.
This is done by a couple clicks of the mouse.
Hope that helps.

I sure would not mind giving Congresswoman Karen L. Thurman a piece of my mind. Pretending Obama was such a nice guy to give FL full voting rights. What a crock.
It was Hillary that wanted it and fought for it and it was Obama who declined every offer Hillary made during the primaries.
I detect a prowl in this but not sure if it is priority right now
.
So now we have to await for a ‘gift’ from the Jester to allow all our votes to count? The letter from the Florida Chair implies that Floridians are getting the votes counted because Obama is giving them that right!
This is not what true leaders in a democracy do, this is what dictators and cult leaders do!

I’ll try this one more time..
THEY JUST DON’T GET IT!! My husband was watching the “Situation Room” while I was fixing dinner. They showed a poll that said bo had the best chance of winning if Hillary was his V.P.
Then they said that would be the only way to appease her women supporters. I was screaming, “No, you idiots. We do not want her to be his V.P. We want her to be our President”..
Do they think all men are as stupid as they are? There are many men that also want Hillary as President..
Our e-mails have fallen on deaf ears..
Why not discuss all of the different stances that bo has taken since becoming the “selected” one? He fiip flops more than Flipper..
I will try one more e-mail to Lou Dobbs. He is the only one who has any sense on that network.

Let’s keep in mind, at this point Bo is nothing more than a Senator when it comes to standing, that’s how it should be but unfortunately those excuses for leaders in the DNC has given him power above a senator.
This truly sickens me. A flake who couldn’t vote more than present is now practically Acting Preseident, and it ticks me off that Bush allows this tripe to continue.
And it should not be up to Bo about Florida & Michigan, it should be up to the DNC, but as usual they are kneeling at his feet bowing repeatedly as they exclaim “Yes Master” we’ll do your bidding.

Problems Mount for Obama as Democratic Convention Nears
Excerpt: Clinton spokeswoman Kathleen Strand said in a statement Friday that Clinton was “100 percent committed to helping Barack Obama become the next president of the United States and realizes there are passionate feelings that remain among many of her supporters.” Strand said that no decisions have been made (about whether Sen. Clinton’s name should be placed in nomination) but, when they are, “they will be made collaboratively with Senator Clinton and her staff, the DNC and Senator Obama’s campaign.”
Ultimately, the candidate and his top aides get to decide who speaks and when. The Obama campaign has to weigh the potential disturbances Clinton supporters might stage if he denies her a roll-call vote. There are Internet rumblings about a march on or during the convention by disaffected Clinton Democrats.

We can also try to call-in on Larry King Live. We might get cut off because it will be off topic, but it could be a start.
What other shows have a call-in number?

which article? there were so many today..October surprise? Is he leaving?
Hey Snowtiger
“Just minutes ago, Sen. Barack Obama sent a letter to the DNC credentials committee urging them to restore the full vote of the Michigan and Florida Delegations, proving his commitment to uniting the party and ending the uncertainty surrounding the process.”
“Generous” of Obama, but wasn’t it a given when, in mid-June they (you know, them) said the half votes would be restored to full votes for the Convention?

Sent the following message to the florida dems website abou their glee over getting their votes back”
‘Just read your website where you rejoice about getting your votes back from the BO machine. Reminds me of an abused wife. BO operatives led by Donna B. took your votes away, then gave 1/2 back when it would handicap Hillary Clinton, and now that they have muzzled her, BO magnanimously gives them back. His arrogance is absurd and your glee over being used once again to influence the outcome of an election is disgusting, especially since it’s your own party this time. You know there’s counseling for this kind of victim mindset.’
~~~~~~~Fist in air~~~~~ ooooow oooooow
For people interested in writing to the Super Delegates and are new to this:
There are two good sites to use;
http://politicallydrunk.blogspot.com/2008/07/last-stand-email-initiative-for-puma.html This is a quick and easy way to write to the Super Delegates, just a couple forms to fill out and you are done. They reload the data base every few days so check back. They up to date data base.
The second site – which I just got done using for the third time since June;
http://www.lobbydelegates.com/ this site can be time consuming. It takes me about 90 minutes to go through every state listed and selecting for: “Obama’s Super Delegates” and the “Uncommitted Super Delegates”. Though you don’t have to do all the states all at the same time. I believe the data base on this is older and you get a lot of rejected e-mails back.
Good luck to all.
McCain handed out tire gages to reporters. On the side it says” Obama’s Energy Plan”

#360 DWP I saw that on the news this morning where he wants Florida and Michigan delegates seated and I called him a SOB my husband called me by my first and middle name ( that’s his way of correcting me) and I said I just meant Sweet old boy. LOL
How many of you are angry at the DNC because of how Hillary has to get permission to do anything regarding this election, but yet Bo is calling all the shots. When they both should be going into this convention on equal ground.
I see many here say Clinton should speak up, be stronger. My response is no, the DNC should be called to task more often by Americans for allowing this fiasco to continue. Pelosi, Dean, Brazile are not so hidden that we can’t reach them.
Please everyone go beyond the growl. Do not become complacent. E-mail them and let them know how you feel.
I am really ticked over this entire florida michigan farce, as you can see.
Oh great, when I hit F5 / refresh… it takes me to the Silence is not an Option blog.

Hey, regarding the Texas Darlin article about COLB? Do you think this techdude really has proof that it belongs to female born in the 70′s?
I crave some news to come out that will stick to the butter boy before the DNC.

I just got a weird message when I said you’ve got mail:
Duplicate message – you have just said that…I think you have a sneaky hacker on the site….
I think that when it comes to October suprprises the American People do not grasp long winded story lines. Short and not so sweet sticks with the “typical” American public. here are examples of headlines:
OBAMA LOVE CHILD, Prostitution, drugs, murder, CHild Abuse, and dog fighting. I guess maybe I have A.D.D. but, When I have to read an article two pages long on a candidate…. that maybe got funds from Gaza…. I am lost. Not undereducated…. maybe just bored. ( I am sure that many Puma’s are not )

I thought that you guys will enjoy this cartoon.
http://politicalhumor.about.com/od/barackobama/ig/Barack-Obama-Cartoons/Obama-and-Dictators.-1Np.-1Np.htm
Hi joanna0902,
Welcome — the person behind the notfallinginline and antipuma propaganda is also known here as Knoxville. He is determined to undermine the Puma PAC efforts by doing everything he can to smear me personally all over the internet. I’m sorry if you were confused or upset by what you read.
He is NOT a Puma. He has tried in every way to disrupt and discourage our members. He is not welcome here because of his lies and his outrageous behavior in our forums toward other members.
All of Puma PAC’s financial records are public documents. We file a detailed form with the FEC every month, detailing all of our income and expenditures. In June we received just over $22,000 in donations. In July we received just under. Our July filing will be sent to the FEC by August 14th.
All of my efforts are 100% volunteer. I take no salary, stipend, or any other kind of payments from Puma PAC. Our office is rent-free. Our computers and fax machines and cell phones are borrowed. No one else at Puma PAC receives any sort of salary or stipend either.
Recurring expenses for Puma PAC, which are paid for by the PAC, include legal representation, some web development services, and web hosting. We have also paid to have t-shirts printed, some bracelets made up, and some printing costs. Travel and production costs for our film and promotional video have also been paid for from PAC funds. More than 10,000 people have viewed the promo since we posted it Saturday night. More than 1.2 million visits to our site have been logged in our first 9 weeks, so I believe in terms of advertising, we have been quite successful in our efforts so far. Puma PAC’s budget is lean, mean, and effective.
We will be spending PAC money to help Puma members get to Denver, and will also spend money while we are there to protest, live blog, and host delegate and media events.
A full page ad in the New York Times and other big daily newspapers, including the Chicago Tribune costs between $75,000 and $100,000. Half page ads cost between $40 and $50,000. Television and radio advertising is even more expensive.
Since our budget is relatively small, we must be cautious and frugal in our expenditures.
I do not take accusations of criminal activity against me lightly. Breaking FEC finance laws is a federal crime for which only I would face liability. That being said, I know that I am an honorable and law-abiding person. I also know that I cannot control all the hateful and divisive people out there who would love nothing more than to see Puma PAC fail. For that reason, I try not to pay too much attention to obvious stalkers and kooks.
On the other hand, your question is a fair and reasonable one and it deserves an open and detailed answer.
If you have any other questions, please email me at murphy@pumapac.org
Thanks!
#414 TrishfromCanada
Agreed. He was caught deceiving this group and his reasons for being here. Not to mention he was caught calling another puma a b&tch. Of course his web site only tells his side, a lop-sided view point.
He is a trouble maker and will do anything to try and distract the goals of puma pac. I think he is also very jealous of Murphy and how successful she has taken our group forward. Best to ignore such people, just trolls.
sunnyPA — you are the best. I do hope everyone reads my response however. Assuming joanna’s question was sincere, and have no reason to doubt that it was.
Here’s new info on Hillary’s visit to Pittsburgh:;;;
Freedom of Pittsburgh ballroom
3rd Floor
David L Lawrence Convention Center
9 am Saturday Aug 9th
Organizers are working on housing – some of the housers during the primary offered again and one of the downtown hotels will give HRC supporters the same discounted rate they extended during the primary too.
More details forthcoming.
I think we should all say a prayer or something today in your own way for the safety of all Olypians in China.
There are many protests going on in China. Protect them with all your powers. Hope for their safe return to their countries. Do a PUMA thing for them.
Thanks.

Heyyyyyyyyyyy, I have not trouble linking and clicking from my home computers! The IT people at wrok probably blocked me today… my boss was on vacation last week and I had a bit too much freedom at wack.
#420 Murphy
Wow! Knoxville threatened you? Man! I could never imagine that. He was a regular on Hillary’s blog. WOW! It’s scary.
ok……… well, I just spent precious minutes reading the article from notfallinginline. Murphy~ sorry if he is hurting you… I do not have any answers.
ONE THING:
I do not really care that he is not a woman, I can not even comment on that response.
I am a lesbian that knows men are important too. BAH -HUMBUG. I feel like I need to go have a beer. Maybe three.
Onto better things and better goals
. Any advice for people who want to write a letter to the super delegates but don’t know where to start?
I have been writing themn constantly but I don’t consider myself much at these formal type letters. Mybe some of the writing people might have some ideas for the new comers.
oh I dont care that he is not a woman either — of course not. That fact is either irrelevant or it is not — way beyond me to figure that one out.
And honestly, liberty, it’s not me he is trying to hurt — it’s all of us. I’m just an effective target.
So by all means have a beer (have one for me too!) but dont be discouraged lassie (as my Buppa would say)
Well, I do not have to work tomorrow so I am going to do a shot for Hill our Madam President. PUMA”S We really do need ot be kind to each other.
landipuma has super advice for letter-writing Bill — let me copy and paste it.
thanks!
Oy- Knoxville needs a meeting or a chill pill. I don’t believe a word of it Murphy and if you weren’t effective, he wouldn’t be using all of his time to write War and Peace about you. Just shows you how pissed he is that you are successful!
( little lassie have a beer for Murph )
My husband lost it after watching Donna B on CNN supporting Obama’s request to fully seat Florida and Michigan. Then why was she so opposed at the May/June meeting?? What happened to her sacred rules??
They really do think we are stupid.
#428 LibertyPuma
My joke was obviously taken the wrong way, I was referring to Hillary supporters being referred to as bitter women. Brian is a bitter man. No ill intent meant towards men at all. I appreciate every Puma who is honest and has integrity regardless of gender.
Forget the money.
Murphy’s efforts are a tremendous undertaking. She has put herself in the direct line of fire for threats, physical harm to her and her family, insults and scandals.
And, for a new group, we are hugely successful … there’s no price on that.
Besides, if you don’t have the money … don’t donate.
I tried to post my comment again but it says it is a duplicate. I don’t see it here. Will try again.
1. YES! A PETITION BY HILLARY’S DELEGATES TO PUT HER NAME INTO NOMINATION
By right, the DNC should place into nomination the name of any candidate who brings delegates to the Democratic National Convention. However, we have come to realize that the DNC has taken on an anti-democratic identity, to its disgrace, so supporters of Senator Clinton are forced to become supplicants.
OK. If that’s how ‘they’ want it…they’ll get it, along with the resolve of the Clinton delegates to see her nominated as the only electable Democrat. For many this is no pro forma.
And we are reminding the Super Delegates that we are holding them responsible for nominating the only electable Democrat, Hillary Clinton.
If you are a HRC delegate, or if you know HRC delegates, please contact hrc300delegates@yahoo.com, ASAP! For more information, please contact Sue Castner 503-203-1027 womenvote2008@gmail.com, or John West 312-399-4458 jwlandscapesllc@gmail.com
2. PLEASE TAKE ACTION: sign these petitions

Now about the October Surprise thing. Other countries have attacked us before when we’ve been the most vulnerable and divided. As we become more and more dependent on foreign powers, we lessen the respectability from these nations. All of the theories are in that document. What is happening though, is the voter is becoming more educated and more aware of things happening on a daily basis. Look how much we learn from each other.
We have the strength and knowledge to start turning this country back to what it used to be. We need to get rid of corrupt government, get back to what the United States used to be, and return to democracy. We need to fight for every constitutional right we have left – you’ve already started that process here.
That October Surprise is an eye opener. But remember what others have said here: BO wants us to be afraid!! The DNC wants us to be afraid!! It is a very underhanded practice to instill fear in everyone.
#420 Murphy
I could not finish reading all of the rantings by Knoxville.
I hope you know we support you, trust you, admire you, respect you and are so thankful for all you do.
I honestly think I was going crazy until I found PUMApac, the primaries were so devastating.
I needed a place to go where I could take positive action and get good information.
THANK YOU!

here’s landipuma’s AWESOME tips for letter-writing. Also, the link for contacting newspapers is in our lovely new ACTION CENTER:
http://www.pumapac.org/action_center.html
TIPS for writing ‘LETTERS TO THE EDITOR’ in newspapers
How to write & edit effective letters that will get published
———————————-
• Be Concise, brief. Avoid rambling sentences & big words.
• State Your Point or argument early, clearly & succinctly; in letter’s intro.
Start with– and maintain focus on– your most important point.
• Stick to a single subject & stay on it. One issue per letter.
• Limit the number of points. Don’t rehash points.
• Be logically organized.
• Limit it to 2 to 5 paragraphs; each one 2 to 3 sentences.
• 200 words is usual limit. Keep to it! The more they have to edit, the less control you have of what gets printed.
• Let your personality show.
• No personal attacks!
• A hint of restrained anger or humor or irony can be effective sometimes.
• Know your subject; do research. Use facts, figures and expert testimony when you can. Readers respect the opinions of those w/special knowledge & expertise.
• Explain how the issue will affect your subject (ie: voters, the country, our future, a certain group of people, etc, etc).
• Identify the responsible person (the decision maker, elected official, etc).
• Offer a solution (RE: your criticism, argument, etc).
• Include phone numbers or address of who to contact (for action, etc… if relevant).
• See it from reader’s perspective. Will it all make sense to someone without your knowledge & background.
• Close with a short restatement of your position or a pithy comment.
• Read letter to a friend, for objective input.
Don’t mail it the same day you write it.
Write and edit it; then put it aside until next day.
Reread it in a fresh light & you’ll spot things you didn’t see before.
• Know that your letter may be edited for length, content & readability.
• Hone your opinion-letter writing style.
Learn the newspaper’s style and audience.
Read other ‘Letters to the Editor’ in different papers to learn.

That would be great – the advice for writing letters. Maybe even put it on the action page. I will copy it and be using the advice. Thanks much
I’m off to get more info regarding the meeting this weekend.
Stay focused and strong.
1- Foe faux-puma is running around the blogosphere under various names, trying to drag people to his site and into his mix and mindset. Pfffft.
2-Truth be known, even if Murphy was spending my contributions on her mortgage, her children’s college education fund, vacations… whatever, it wouldn’t bother me in the least. What I have gained at puma pac and what we are doing as a group is priceless.
3-I’m fiercely loyal, although not blindly so, to people I perceive as altruistic, ethical, honest, responsible, and fun! Murphy meets those criteria… that’s all I have to know.
anyone have momma e’s link I lost it again:(

Murphy #419,
Thank you for your informative answer. Prowl on!
If you are a NYC PUMA and leave for the DC conference on Thursday and seek a ride, e-mail me at Notyoursweetie0@gmail.com
#419 Murphy
For what you are doing here, you deserve the best. I would actually like to see you get very rich over all this. I remember finding your blog as Clinton’s was shutting down and I was in dispair about what was going to happen to my country. People there were talking about PUMA. You gave us a home when we needed one. And Mr. Knoxville better mind his manners or he is going to have alot of mad bloggers on his hands.
Murphy! Did you deleted me? I had to sign back up. I have nothing to do with NFIL.org. I’m in New Jersey and never talked to the guy. I didn’t even like his site.
I can’t believe what a low-life Knoxville turned out to be. Murphy will surely go down in the Herstory books as one of the true heroines of our time, perhaps not perfect, but still a selfless, dedicated, caring and wonderful woman who loves the party, justice and equality for everyone. Knoxville, just tuck your tail between your legs and slink off into the night…or wherever you came from.
Murphy, I have a confession to make…
I responded to Knoxville…
This is really unfortunate, but I’ll be honest. I think (and I may be wrong) that I remember you, Knoxville, from the HRC site. There was something about you that bothered me then and I couldn’t put my finger on it. Some kind of whiny, little brother, always looking to be the bigshot in someone else’s game sort of thing. I’m not a big contributor or blogger, so I didn’t really pay much attention to you. I read something recently that said it’s amazing what you can accomplish when you no longer worry about who gets the credit. I think this is part of the problem here, you do care and it’s a team game.
I don’t know any of the PUMA folks in the flesh, but my gut feeling is always spot on. I have never interacted with a more compassionate, caring, task oriented team. If you pay attention, a person’s written words will tell you all you need to know. Though they are a diverse lot with opinions that run the board on certain things, we are united in cause and that is all that matters.
I respect your decision to take your ball and run to Mommy. I wish you well in your future endeavors. I choose Murphy and PUMA and have no issues with the way our site is handled by the group leaders.
Goodbye Brian.
Re: the stupid rumors on Murphy – I am reminded of an entry Riverdaughter had a few weeks ago in which she said “we got their attention – they’ll try to divide us, stay close together”

The Race Card Returns
by Harry R. Jackson, Jr.
Calls/emails to Deano from Heidi Li
For those of you that did not catch Heidi Li last night (I think) on blogtalkadio, she said we have to remind Dean HE is the one who is head of the DNC, HE is the one who is getting paid to do this job and HE is the one that controls the decisions of the DNC, NOT *61.
HE also has the say whether or not Senator Clinton’s name is put into nomination without requiring anything else be done. HE can also request a signed petition for *61 as he is also just a candidate and NOT a nominee.
If Deano has made the decision to turn everything over to a non-nominee, then he needs to immediately give up his position and step down so WE are not paying him for a job he is NOT doing. He MUST be made accountable for doing his job and being fair at the convention.
My comment—all DNC members should be held accountable or asked to step down and quit getting paid by us. I would think *61 has no rights to the convention decisions as he is NOT in any high level DNC position. The delegate petition guarantees Senator Clinton’s name is on the ballot as a nominee if she signs it, but ultimately has the ability and authority to automatically put her name into nomination without any other conditions, as he has done with *61.
If I misspoke on what she said, please correct me but I think that was basically it and a VERY important point according to her.

Just Last Month, Obama Opposed Tapping The Reserve, Arguing That It Should Be Used For Genuine Emergencies Like A Terrorist Attack On Oil Supplies :
Obama: “I do not believe that we should use the strategic oil reserves at this point. I have said and, in fact, supported a congressional resolution that said that we should suspend putting more oil into the strategic oil reserve, but the strategic oil reserve, I think, has to be reserved for a genuine emergency. You have a situation, let’s say, where there was a major oil facility in Saudi Arabia that was destroyed as a consequence of terrorist acts, and you suddenly had huge amounts of oil taken out of the world market, we wouldn’t just be seeing $4-a-gallon oil. We could see a situation where entire sectors of the country had no oil to function at all. And that’s what the strategic oil reserve has to be for.” (Sen. Barack Obama, Remarks At Media Availability, St. Louis, MO, 7/7/08)

Murphy,
I haven’t gotten to the part about what Knoxville said about you, just your response. I want you to know how sorry I am that you have been “attacked” verbally and physically. I have the ultimate respect and admiration for you. Please take care and know we have your back and will be there for you.

Just fired off an e-mail the the chair of the fla dem party. Not one of my better pieces of writing, but here it is:
Dear Chairman Thurman:
Your effusive letter about Senator Obama’s urge to seat all of Florida delegates struck me as quite disingenuous. If you recall, it was not, nor has it been, Senator Obama who advocated for and fought for seating all of Florida’s delegates. It was Senator Clinton. In fact, while she was on the right side of the issue in terms of the basic democratic promise of one person, one vote, Senator Obama was busy touting the importance of “rules” and showed no sign whatsoever that he had even the slightest interest in making sure every vote counted (as a whole vote, by the way). Only now that he feels assured of being the Democratic nominee, has he come out in favor of seating all of Florida’s delegates with full votes. Your letter is re-writing history and it has the old familiar ring of the not-so-distant past when casting Senator’s Clinton aside in favor of promoting Senator Obama at any cost became the law of the land in the Democratic Party.
I was a Democrat my entire life and proud to be one, but no longer. The party seems to have morphed into an unrecognizable creature with a rather Stalanesque character at the helm.
You should all be ashamed.
From RICKI LIEBERMAN, Electability Watch (EW)
1. YES! A PETITION BY HILLARY’S DELEGATES TO PUT HER NAME INTO NOMINATION
By right, the DNC should place into nomination the name of any candidate who brings delegates to the Democratic National Convention. However, we have come to realize that the DNC has taken on an anti-democratic identity, to its disgrace, so supporters of Senator Clinton are forced to become supplicants.
OK. If that’s how ‘they’ want it…they’ll get it, along with the resolve of the Clinton delegates to see her nominated as the only electable Democrat. For many this is no pro forma.
And we are reminding the Super Delegates that we are holding them responsible for nominating the only electable Democrat, Hillary Clinton.
If you are a HRC delegate, or if you know HRC delegates, please contact hrc300delegates@yahoo.com, ASAP! For more information, please contact Sue Castner 503-203-1027 womenvote2008@gmail.com, or John West 312-399-4458 jwlandscapesllc@gmail.com

Obama’s not doing good in Florida. McCain+6.
OMG, this problem ladyhawkke is having is so wierd. Don’t mean to be laughing at your expense, ladyhawkke cause it must be ssooooo frustrating not to post. However, it has surely inspired some hysterical posts from a lot of folks and given much needed laughter. But, I really hope you can rejoin the conversation soon. It’s so sad to see your little empty blank grey boxes come up. Hang in there…
I just got back. Not sure what Knoxville said. Murphy you are the best and I can’t imagine how anyone could say any different. I am sorry if someone offended you.
Shame on them!!!!!
Well my mail just arrived and my copy of Obama Nation is here.
Seems to be some negative press out about Obama. I am interested in what comes of the illegal donations he received from overseas. If it is true how could they cover that up.
Let’s stay focused and on track.
link for momma E maybe that will help get ladys voice
goandersen;
CLASSIC!
tears are literally flying out of my eyes. poor poor ladyhawke.
i spoke with her on the phone a little while back, and she feels terrible that her comment about what the guy at hillary headquarters said. She never meant to get people down. Her voice in person is quite bird-like and pleasant — she is definitely well-named.
I think the problem is that her post contains a lot of links.
Ladyhawke, try posting a comment with no links in it.
I do hope you know that we are all laughing with you, not at you! At least I hope you are laughing, because it is just too darn funny.
murphy–stay true, do not fear the liars because that is what they do, and remember that your legion is behind you with wings (some angel some devil but all in support of the common cause–DEMOCRACY)…
Also, and this is a shout out to those who might try to intimidate PUMA, murphy, or anyone trying to fight the fight, we will PROTECT our own.
And I LOVE LOVE LOVE demockery…made me laugh
ladyhawke, I feel you honey. I had the same problem trying to post all day today from my office. I am wondering if it is something with IE. At home I use mozilla firefox. I was not putting any links in my posts. I don’t know what happened. I am sending a dive team for you!
Have you guys seen this beautiful Puma JSND video?

Murphy,
I sent you some important email, called “TELL THEM AGAIN”. Take a look and let me know what you think.
Because Riverdaughter says it so well. Read the whole thing here: http://riverdaughter.wordpress.com/2008/08/04/monday-obamas-gesture/
In response to Obama calling today for FL and MI delegates to be fully seated:
“Back when his “magnaminity” would have counted, he would have taken a small hit in his delegate lead and everyone would have been happy and impressed by his sense of fairness to the voters. But back then, no amount of pleading could convince him to ask for such fairness. He couldn’t even be moved to join in a revote effort. The reason is very clear. Without Florida and Michigan, Hillary’s other states lacked the critical mass of delegates that would have put her on an even footing with him. In fact, if FL and MI had been counted fully from the beginning, it would have been all over by February 5th. Her substantial and decisive wins in FL, MI, CA, NJ, NY, MA, and AZ would have dwarfed his insignificant wins in the western caucuses. The weightiness of all of those big D and swing states would have had him barely hanging in the race. OH and TX would have finished him off. We all know this. That’s why it was so important for him to screw FL and MI back in February. It doesn’t make them any less screwed now that he’s sent a letter.
No, instead, Hillary was forced to pole vault a 435ft bar all primary season while Obama was allowed to gently ease his way over a knee wall, assisted by a boost up from his friends in the media and the RBC committee. Obama successfully kept these two states out of the tallies until he could get the Rules and Bylaws committee to grudgingly give these two states half of their voting strength while at the same time awarding Obama uncommitted Michigan delegates that should have remained uncommitted. And he stole 4 of Clinton’s delegates.
He must think we are really stupid if he thinks we can’t see through this meaningless gesture:
* He still selfishly retains 4 of Hillary’s Michigan delegates. He doesn’t give up a single Michigan delegate that should have remained uncommitted.
* The number of delegates needed for nomination has now changed. It’s a higher threshold number now but there is no acknowledgment that this is the case. Does he even qualify as the “presumptive nominee”?
* Unless there is a nomination for Clinton at the convention, the restoration of Florida and Michigan to full voting strength doesn’t count. They can only vote for one person, Obama, or their votes will count as “present”.
* If the delegates can’t vote for Clinton for nomination, even if she doesn’t win it, there is no way for MY vote in NJ to count. I am officially a non-voting voter as far as the DNC is concerned. My delegate has about as much of a voting right as a Berliner.
* It does nothing to achieve party unity. In fact, there won’t be party unity until every delegate has the right to vote for the person he pledged to and have that vote count. Otherwise, the convention is nothing but a sham, a Potemkin election where everything is scripted and a facade is erected to make it look like we are all onboard when nothing could be further from the truth. But the degree of the disunity will be felt in November when Obama goes down to defeat behind the unpopular party’s nominee.
Why bother, Barack? Are the numbers starting to frighten you? Did you decide you needed Florida and Michigan after all, as if any voter from these two states can’t see through this? How about you give back your ill-gotten booty in Michigan and take off the sash that says “presumptive nominee”? Why not leave it up to the voters in Denver to decide if you deserve that title? It would be the sincere thing to do, the honest thing to do, the courageous and unselfish thing to do.
Yeah, right. Why don’t you just brush those inconvenient Hillary voters off of your shoulder?”

For days, ever since JMc’s commercial comparing BO to Paris Hilton began running, I had been citing this BO comment about Paris Hilton, which he made in 2004 as the senator-elect, on other blogs, responding to complaints JMc’s use of the comparison was racist. I was so happy to see your link to Ms. Sweet’s recent column, repeating BO’s prior quote. Leave it to her to print the real story. (The Sun-Times isn’t the only one in the know. Did you see Jeff Zeleny in the Tribune, quoting BO in 2005 saying if he wasn’t black, he would be just one of nine freshmen senators? It’s even on BO’s senate web site! Yet, incredibly, he disingenuously attacked GF for repeating the sentiment in regards to this presidential race.)

You’re right. We need to get Murphy, Will Bower and other folks to write a book about our fight for Hillary. That would be awesome. We WILL be a #1 on the BEST SELLER LIST! Go for it!
Murphy,
I just can’t stop laughing every time I come over for a quick visit and Demockery shows up at the top of this post.
Anyways, I can’t seem to stop writing today. Started thinking about Obama’s $1,000 per family energy rebate. Here you go:
http://politicallydrunk.blogspot.com/2008/08/do-math-cost-of-obamas-proposed-1000.html
SORRY, must repeat, in case anyone was starting to waver in their belief that this illegitimate candidate was selected, not elected:
?No, instead, Hillary was forced to pole vault a 435ft bar all primary season while Obama was allowed to gently ease his way over a knee wall, assisted by a boost up from his friends in the media and the RBC committee. Obama successfully kept these two states out of the tallies until he could get the Rules and Bylaws committee to grudgingly give these two states half of their voting strength while at the same time awarding Obama uncommitted Michigan delegates that should have remained uncommitted. And he stole 4 of Clinton’s delegates.”
Hi This is the first time I have posted. I made the phone call to Howard dean today. I am a democrate who will be voting republican if Hillary is not nomiated.
I did call on the prowl today.
#483 murphy
Yep it makes me sick. I think may are seeing it they way it is, flip-flopping Obama. I have seen a lot of traction on this story and it doesn’t look too good for obama.
Okay my wife got home from work now. Time to relax for awhile bit
.
MURPHY – Thanks for posting that Riverdaughter letter. It is FANTASTIC!!!!!
Unrelated to that, I’m reposting some sections of posts from yesterday, one for laughs the other for action.
The first is from bmw60 cause it’s so funny and the poor guy was on hold for 20 min this morning waiting to get on with Lou Dobbs and just as he was about to get on the air, he got disconnected. Haven’t heard from him since, went off feeling really bad. Hey, bmw60, if you’re out there, hope you’ve recovered from this morning’s disappointment. Maybe your own post from yesterday will life your spirits:
Just had to post this… cause I wanted to end my day on a “funny” — these were posted on a youtube for O and his energy solution of pumping up our tires…LOL>>>LOL>>>LOL
Just more proof that Obama is full of hot air. Most newer vehicles only require spark plugs to be changed every 100,000 miles. Most people don’t keep a car that long. Whats next-lower the antenna for less wind resistance? Maybe if we put more air in the rear wheels the car will tilt forward and roll under it’s own power-LOL. This man went to Harvard?

REALLY think about it…

This is Sen Obama’s Dukkakis Tank Moment.

This is the first part of a post was from Hillstheone:
~ ~ TOPIC: Sympathetic Media ~ ~
Here are a couple of journalists to share some PUMA love w/ this week in an email:
1) Today’s column by Washington Post Op-Ed columnist George Will on Obama:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/08/01/AR2008080102871.html
you can email Mr. Will here: georgewill@washpost.com
I e-mailed George to let him know about us. As Hillstheone noted, sounds like he may be sympathetic and supportive.

Hello everyone, sorry I haven’t been on a lot lately (if anyone noticed lol) been dealing with personal things but anyway, I read what’s been going on last couple of days (whoa about Knoxville) anyways sorry Murphy I missed the prowl today should I still do it tomorrow morning (if it’s not to late to do it).
Prowls for the day
-completed Dean prowl
-called 6 CA superdelegates (had a long chat with one staffer and he wanted to know more about Puma Pac/why we were not supporting *61)
Murphy – excellent benchmarks for all of us to achieve.
There is so much Puma activity that sometimes it is hard to remember our mission. However, I always liked this statement – Thank you Hillary but we will take it from here –
At this time, the DP belongs to *61. Yet, every prowl moves us closer to our goal. It is going to be a long and difficult slog to reach our main goal and that is to defeat *61. We will prevail.
Need to sign off for a couple of hours.
Go Pumas!!!!
#467 Ladyhawkke – I am so sorry for you
Okay, I am A PROUD PUMA even though I don’t blog often, however I do read your posts everyday. I know there’s bickering here at times, but then again families are not perfect! I don’t like to get involved but I need to here. Knoxville… you OWE MURPHY AN APOLOGY! When Hillary suspended her campaign, I was devastated! I immediately unsubscribed from Hillary’s site because I wanted to make sure Obama did not get my e-mail address. Thankfully, I believe it was Karlaforhillary that mentioned PUMA. Many of us felt HELPLESS after Hillary Suspended and wanted to do something but didn’t know what to do or how to get started. Murphy did the hard work for all of us! (A SPECIAL THANK YOU TO ALL THE OTHER PUMAS WHO HELP OUT) She gave us a place to call home and I am so grateful for that! I AM JEALOUS OF MURPHY! Only because I have a husband and 4 kids and it’s A LOT of work. Muphy has three kids! How does she handle home, kids and this blog? I need to know her secret! My favorite line this campaign season comes from my FAVORITE PRESIDENT, BILL CLINTON. “WHEN THEY TELL YOU, YOU CAN’T WIN….IT’S BECAUSE THEY KNOW YOU CAN!” You are a WINNER MURPHY!!!

I am glad to hear that McCain is ahead in the polls.
Fox News ran an article that according to Gallup released today BHO is 3% ahead of McCain.
P.S. How do I make a scared face? Anybody?
RE: 34 OMG TOO FUNNY !!!!!!!!!!
IM JUST READING BUT HAD TO COME DOWN AND POST
YOU GUYS ARE FUNNY
BO’S BOXERS UP FOR AUCTION
AND MAYBE HIS PRESENT WAS THE OTHER HALF OF FL. AND MICH. OMG TO FUNNY
MAYBE HE HAD HIS VP LIST IN HIS SUITCASES AND ALL HIS SECRETS!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT A LOSER
I can’t wait to go upstairs so we can have a new image to look at. This one is killing me.
There’s a reason that I don’t listen to the news or watch any televised program that might be interrupted with BO ads.
It is definitely inappropriate for me to comment any further on the image – I would probably be banned from the blog.
Eward and Anna you are always so focusing and uplifting — thank you!
great to see you kai,
and slyt2 — or slypuma as I like to call you — yes most definitely do the PROWL tomorrow. It is NEVER to late to stand up for democracy. I mean that sincerely.
Hi TLCPUMA also known as luckytlc from the old Hillary’s site, right?
TY Anna7000… I am out here…. and I am laughing again… aren’t there a wonderfully funny bunch of people out there… Anna………. You are special…
jbjd…Thank you for your response to my post last Tuesday. I asked for advice about talking to a pledged delegate. You advised me not to overwhelm them with information. It was very helpful. She signed the petition and passed the info on to others who also signed . I read above that you are an attorney. That was my first guess. My second was therapist.
OFF TOPIC:
Goin’ now for my nutrisystem dessert and decaf…… Lost 21.5 pounds in the last 6 weeks… aM A PROUD PUMA
Ladyhawkke – we want you to find your voice
BMW60,
are you still here?
BMW60 – congrats way to go
Maryland Puma – Murphy – Trish – I have a history question for you -
Which President served the longest time in office and who served the shortest time in office -
HEADS UP
I am watching FOX. I think O’Reilly might play the comments BO made 4 years ago comparing himself to Paris Hilton…
FDR and Calvin Coolidge?
quick guess — going to check now. . .
Sorry for the question above – but needed some time away from looking up superdelegates contact info
Wow – that was quick Murphy – I have the answer so no need to look it up – in fact I have thanks to AARP – 50 of these type of questions – some very very interesting ones too – YOU GOT ONE RIGHT
PUMAS,
Did anyone see the piece about Bill Clinton on the AOL homepage? It’s interesting if you read between the lines. Here is an interesting excerpt:
“I never was mad at Sen. Obama,” the former president said. “I think everybody’s got a right to run for president who qualifies under the Constitution. And I’d be the last person to begrudge anybody their ambition.”
bmw60 – I’m so glad you posted. I’ve really been thinking about you today and felt so bad that you were so psyched, then got disconnected, then disappeared from the blog for the better part of the day. I’m ssoooo glad you’re here and laughing. Truly, that post of yours is a keeper. Cut, pasted and in my word file folders for all of eternity! (Maybe I should put it in a bottle and bury it for future civilations to find. It would be a head scratcher for sure! OR, maybe by then, it will be proven that lowering the antenae does decrease wind resistance and finding your post will be a huge breakthrough – finally the discovery of who had the seed of that idea!)
And, thanks for the compliment (thanks Murhpy, as well). I truly think every single person here is special in their own way. I love how we each have our own kind of voice and somehow manage to navigate this hectic, fast paced blog, for the most part, with a lot of grace, giving each other space, speaking up when we need to, connecting more with some than with others, but always coming back to remembering why we’re all here.

[[I can’t wait to go upstairs so we can have a new image to look at. This one is killing me.]]
I’m with you. I dislike seeing Obama’s image on our blog. I have to look away from the computer when the screen refreshes.
Anna7000,
I was also referring to him saying everyone has a right to run if they are qualified under the constitution. I think that’s an odd thing to say.
I have been reading your blogs. You all are so funny.
Good luck to all pumas.
sheila7 – oh yeah, i missed that. that is verrrrrrrry interesting.
Hi jojobean!
Anna7000, Isn’t it though?
sheila – you know, the more i read that quote you posted, the more i think it’s a real gem with possibilities. not sure what they are yet, but it encapsulates a lot in very few words.
ok. i’m hoggin the bloggin and gotta go feed my cat and take a walk anyway — later all –
THANKS AGAIN ANNA7000… I ECHO YOUR SENTIMENTS ABOUT THIS BLOG
I wrote the FL dems this:
I am shocked that the Florida delegation is jumping with glee now that Obama has magnanimously said he wanted the full delegations to count at the convention… how about that change????… so, effectively he silenced Hillary Clinton who more Floridians voted for and effectively said they only counted for 1/2 votes through the DNC… he opposed and dragged his feet about the revote… so You guys are just hunky dory with him HUH????
Well, I am shocked that you think this is so wonderful… I am shocked that you like being kicked and punched so much…. There are classes you can take and interventions you can join for the “Battered Democratic Politician Syndrom”…
Try PUMAPac or Just Say No Deal for healing from this syndrom.

My guess is that after George Washington, FDR served the longest time–I think 16 years??? I believe that after his death, the term of President was shortened to two terms. (I didn’t do very well in U.S. History class in High School.)
I don’t remember who said it earlier but if you hit submit several times fast after you post it will go through. At least it does for me. Thank you whoever gave the advice.
I just read an article on Greta’s blog that said Larry Sinclair was found dead yesterday. Does anyone know about this?

I know, hard to believe he did but I’m glad he did. If he said it then you know it’s true. LOL.
It was so ridiculous anyway to ever call Bill Clinton a racist. He is my favorite president but lord knows he had a few issues. However, racism or sexism is not one of them.
Hannity said BO became Hillary……..

Partisan Trends
Number of Democrats in US Declines in July
Saturday, August 02, 2008
During July, the number of Americans who consider themselves to be Democrats fell two percentage points to 39.2%. That’s the first time since January that the number of Democrats has fallen below 41% (see history from January 2004 to present).

NOT SURPRISED!
Is it this post Murphy?
311 antifish on 08.02.08 at 11:47 pm Hummmm!
Overall, there are twice as many uncommitted voters at this point in Election 2008 as there were four years ago. An analysis released yesterday showed that there are more Democrats than Republicans in the uncommitted category, but that they are leaning more towards McCain than Obama.

Take it upstairs!
Hi everyone i have been here a few times clicking on links and reading and did some blogging lol in the news papers.
and notfollowing too!
Kudo’s to Lanny Davis. He said he is not happy that Dean the the Rules committee are NOW willing to seat all of the delegates now that Hillary is out of the race.
Just heard the whole Bill Clinton interview..my mother and I cried a whole half box of kleenex. HOW DARE THEY call that man a racist….I cannot contain my disgust and ANGER. I am angry. How can this happen in THIS COUNTRY?
Is this what happens when good countries go bad? The CLINTONS are the FINEST people in this country–they rank right up there, and they have been denigrated, denied, and debased by lowlifes not worth the time of day. HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN?
One other thing, I will NOT be okay if Hillary does not get the nod. I realized this today. I will NEVER be okay. As woman, as a Clinton lover, and as a MAJOR Hillary fan I will never be okay. So I guess I better get to work because I have three weeks left…
She won people, and they yanked it right back. She won, and if they women and men of this country do not stand up now and DEMAND that she be given her just due, well then I don’t know how we can call ourselves a free democratic equality based nation. In fact, I don’t think we can.
She won, gosh darn it, the girl won. And they stole it from her. This is not fair. And that video about PUMA has just about done me in for tears tonight. I WANT MY HILLARY!! I want her and I am not settling for the boy this time…I want my Hillary
Hey all. What’s this I hear about Knoxville Puma? He was a regualr here…I don’t get it. I searched that name as well as notfallinginline and didn’t get any hits, so I guess the posts were scrubbed? I don’t have any idea what they said, yet am interested because I recognize the handle.
Anyway, I’m looking for a PUMA who wants to ride into the city with me tomorrow for the 6:30 get out the truth event in Manhattan. If you’re east of the city, get at me.
Also, it’s time for my monthly letter to the delgates and super delegates…I’ll check the action center, but if email addy’s aren’t prominently displayed there I’ma ask for a good list from the fellow pac’ers. That which I got from Ricki’s EW is horrible. Thanks guys.
PUMA: Vigiglant, Fearless, Potent!
