The PLEOs are starting to move. In the past two weeks two dozen have
endorsed
Barack Obama. After the Texas and Ohio primaries on March 4, no doubt large numbers
of PLEOs will begin to take sides, depending on the results.
They could go either way. Many in the party just want a nominee and consider both
candidates quite acceptable.
The McCain-Iseman story is
continuing
but with a focus on whether McCain met with one of Iseman's clients, Bud Paxson, before writing letters
to the FCC urging action Paxson wanted. Paxson says he met McCain to
discuss the matter. McCain has denied the meeting occurred. If Paxson is telling the truth,
this could be more damaging than rumors of a romantic involvement. After all, McCain's
appeal is his anticorruption honest-John image. He hasn't campaigned on family values and his
messy divorce is already well known.
On Thursday, I mentioned that a smear campaign against Barack Obama is already in full swing.
Multiple readers, from different parts of the country, sent copies of the e-mail they had
received about him being a Moslem. It is reproduced below verbatim.
Who is Barack Obama?
Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein Obama was born in
Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black MUSLIM from
Nyangoma-Kogel, Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white ATHIEST from Wichita, Kansas.
Obama's parents met at the University of Hawaii . When Obama was two
years old, his parents divorced. His father returned to Kenya. His
mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a RADICAL Muslim from Indonesia. When
Obama was 6 years old, the family relocated to Indonesia. Obama
attended a MUSLIM school in Jakarta. He also spent two years in a
Catholic school.
Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a Muslim. He is
quick to point out that, "He was once a Muslim, but that he also
attended Catholic school."
Obama's political handlers are attempting to make it appear that Obama's
introduction to Islam came via his father, and that this influence was
temporary at best. In reality, the senior Obama returned to Kenya soon
after the divorce, and never again had any direct influence over his
son's education.
Lolo Soetoro, the second husband of Obama's mother, Ann Dunham,
introduced his stepson to Islam. Obama was enrolled in a Wahabi school
in Jakarta . Wahabism is the RADICAL teaching that is followed by the
Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad against the western world.
Since it is politically expedient to be a CHRISTIAN when seeking Major
public office in the United States, Barack Hussein Obama hasm joined
the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim
background.
ALSO, keep in mind that when he was sworn into office he DID NOT use the
Holy Bible, but instead the Kuran (Their equivalency to our Bible, but
very different beliefs)
Let us all remain alert concerning Obama's expected presidential
candidacy. The Muslims have said they plan on destroying the US from the
inside out, what better way to start than at the highest level - through
the President of the United States, one of their own!!!!
Please forward to everyone you know. Would you want this man leading our
country?...... NOT ME!!
If you do not ever forward anything else, please forward this to all
your contacts.........this is very scary to think of what lies ahead of
us here in our own United States ........ better heed this and pray
about it and share it.
THIS DEFINITELY WARRANTS LOOKING INTO. THIS COUNTRY WAS FOUNDED, "ONE
NATION UNDER GOD". ALMIGHTY GOD, NOT THE GOD OF THE KORAN.
Here are the delegate totals from various news sources.
They differ because in most caucus states, no delegates to the national conventions have
been chosen yet, just delegates to the district, county, or state convention. Also, some
sources try to count the PLEOs (Party Leaders and Elected Officials) and unpledged delegates, who also get to vote
at the convention.
When different reporters call a PLEO and hear "Well, I like Hillary,
but Barack has his charms too" they may score it differently.
