IT'S TIME TO ROLL UP OUR SLEEVES AND HIRE THE BEST FOR THE CAMPAIGN AGAINST MCCAIN, WELCOME ABOARD, IT'S ON TO VICTORY!
Now, is this the same Linda Douglass whom television pundits have lead us to believe was an impartial observer on so many panels? Or sheer coincidence that she looks the same and has an identical name?

He sure needs a lot of heavy duty support to prop him up doesn't he. I wonder what will happen when he has to stand on his own two feet and speak for himself with his own words. Nah, I know what will happen, we've lived through it for 7 years already.
Hold our nose and vote for obama if we must (assuming Hillary doesn't win in Denver in August--I think she will, but...)
next time we'll have the instant run off 2nd choice ballots to build the green party.
Good god.
Hey Lynn--how about a story about the stalling of the Rezko jury?
this is huge. this is real cool.
BARACK OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT, GIVE CREDIT TO HILLARY CLINTON, BUT
BARACK OBAMA WILL BE THE NOMINEE, HE AND SHE HAVE RUN GOOD
CAMPAIGNS, BUT IT'S TIME FOR CLINTON SUPPORTERS TO USE YOUR ENERGY
AND TENACITY TO HELP THE DEMOCRATS GET BACK IN THE WHITE HOUSE,
PLEASE HELP BARACK OBAMA IN HIS QUEST TO DEFEAT JOHN MCCAIN!
THIS ISN'T ABOUT WHO HE KNOWS, THIS IS ABOUT AMERICA BECOMING A
BETTER NATION, HELPING OUR SENIOR CITIZENS, OUR VETERANS, LOWERING
GAS PRICES, THE ECONOMY GETTING BETTER, JOBS REMAINING IN THE U.S.
LET'S GIVE BARACK OBAMA OUR UNDIVIDED ATTENTION!
