US Election Coverage 2008

[JokaKuu]

OBAMA:
..hivi mbona Obama pia amesema Hillary alikuwa ni 1st lady tu, na hana hiyo experience ya kutosha? au kosa ni Hillary kuongezea kwamba McCain ana experience?

..Obama pia amesema Hillary atakata mishahara ya wananchi ili kulipia bima za afya.

..Obama vilevile amesema Democrats wakimchagua Hillary basi USA itarudi kwenye divisive politics of the past.

....

HILLARY:

..kwa upande mwingine Hillary amesema Obama ni mtu wa maneno matamu lakini vitendo hakuna.

..Hillary amedai mpango wa afya wa Obama utawaacha mamilioni ya Wamarekani wakiwa hawana health insurance.

..Hillary amedai Obama amekuwa akipata ushindi kwenye majimbo madogo madogo ambayo hayawezi kuwasaidia Democrats ktk uchaguzi mkuu.

....

NB:

..Nafikiri kila mgombea anajaribu kujitofautisha na mwenzake.

..kwasababu wengine hapa tumejipachika ukereketwa, na kuchukua upande, basi kila mgombea wetu anapokosolewa tunapata mshituko.

Hakuna mtu anayetaka Obama apendelewe lakini kuna tofauti kati kampeni ndani ya chama zile za nje . Kitendo cha Hilary kusema kuwa yeye na Mccain wana experience , wakati Obama ana speech aliyosoma mwaka 2002 is below the belt. Nakubalina na wewe ya kuwa ni lazima Hilary amattack obama kwa sasa , lakini wakati huo huo ni lazima awe makini asisababishe mgawanyiko ndani ya chama.

Vile vile ni mihimu kujua ya kuwa wamarekani wanakuwa turned off na negative campaign kwa hiyo ni muhimu kuangalia hiyo message yako itakuwa perceived vipi na voters.

Sio kweli!! Wangekuwa wanakuwa turned off na negative campaign basi leo hii Bush wala asingekuwa raisi. Unakumbuka yaliyomkuta McCain mwaka 2000? Unakumbuka swift boat veterans? Negative campaigns ni sehemu ya siasa. Na kusema eti aliyosema Clinton kuhusu speech ya Obama ni below the belt huo ni umayai na ulegevu. If you can't take that what can you take? Geeez!!!!

Joka Kuu:
I do not accept the premise that Hillary Clinton has more experience that Obama, nor does anyone I know around here. If the experince is being living in the WH for 8 years..then she has one, Obviously, she's married to it, But did not earned it herself and simply demands that we morph her husband's resume onto hers. And here is the kicker..if she wants credits for her husbands tenure as a President she should also accepts the failures of his administrations policies. Its a double edge swords it cut both ways. However, as far as the experience thing go I cannot thinkthrough why anyone accepts such an absurd demand.

There you are, na ndivyo kampeni zilivyo duniani kote ila wenzetu wanataka special treatment kwa Obama, the untouchable almighty. Obama akimshambulia Hillary, haiharibu odds za Democrats kwenye uchaguzi mkuu, ila Hillary akimshambulia inawaharibia Democrats, ebo!. Kweli ukipenda kitu....

Says Clinton communications director Howard Wolfson: "We do not believe that Sen. Obama has passed the commander in chief test. But there is a long way between now and Denver."


"if someone is not ready on day one, how are they ready to be your VP"

"We are in a tough battle, .....she is working very hard and is tenacious, but I want to make it very clear, I am running for President of the United States, .....commander In Chief....but what kind of judgment when you answer that phone ringing at 3 am...[she has gone along with George Bush]

Barack Obama, in Mississippi

Candy Crowley, "this is a way for the Clinton campaign to have it both ways.....very strong push back...etc" Good stuff catch replays......

Jamani leo Jaluo ame-kick butts ile mbaya!
Sijui kama mmepata hii nyepesi kwamba surrogate wa Clinton alileta analogy moja mbovu ya kusema that Obama recognizes the cow but can't milk it (yaani Iraq war is the cow)

Speaking on a conference call with reporters, Lt. Gen. Joe Ballard, a Clinton supporter, compared Obama's stance on Iraq to a person who could "recognize a cow" (ostensibly, the perils of the war) but not milk it (get the troops out? has conflict-management experience?).

"Just because you recognize the cow doesn't mean you know how to milk it," said Ballard, who was playing off his time among cows in Louisiana. "I think body of experience, learning what you have to do and how to do it, is very important... No one can tell you how to milk a cow; you have to do that yourself."

That wasn't all.

"No doubt in my mind he can probably milk a cow but his body of experience means he probably doesn't know how to milk one," continued Ballard, before getting a bit more specific. "When I look across the aisle at Sen. Obama, other than a great speech, I really do not see the same body of experience to deal with that issue. I see a statement that says I have a great staff that can advise me. I think you need a great body of experience to deal with the recommendations your staff is bringing to you."

Campaign spokesman Howard Wolfson called into question Obama's capacity to be the vice president, claiming "We do not believe that Senator Obama has passed the commander-in-chief test. But there is a long way between now and Denver."

In addition to Ballard, the conference call included Gen. Wesley Clark, and Lee Feinstein, the Clinton Campaign's National Security Director, all of whom attacked Obama for not being entirely committed to a troop withdrawal. As evidence they cited recent remarks by former Obama aide Samantha Power which suggested that the Illinois Democrat would reconsider troop withdrawal once elected, given the account of conditions on the ground.

"[Sen. Clinton] has been unwavering in her commitment to support withdrawal," said Ballard. "People know when they vote what they are exactly going to get. And in the case of Sen. Obama I don't think we are quite that clear."

Moooo.

Leo Jaluo was on the roll! ka-slam dunk Clinton camp nadhani inabidi waende wakaji reorganize upya maana wameleta kituko.
Hii ishu ya VP imebackfire vibaya.
Leo baada ya kuulizwa na waandishi inakuwaje kwamba Clinton anamtaka kama VP wakati alisema Obama is not ready to commander in chief? Wolfson alijibu

"We do not believe that Senator Obama has passed the commander-in-chief test. But there is a long way between now and Denver."...

"Senator Clinton will not choose any candidate who has not at the time of choosing passed the national security threshold. But we have a long way to go until Denver, and it's not something she's prepared to rule out at this point."

This means, Obama is not ready now but will be ready in summer?
Obama kauliza:

Obama also pointed out the tension between suggestions of a joint ticket on the one hand, and Sen. Clinton's suggestions in Texas (notably, the "3AM ad") that Obama is not ready to be commander-in-chief on the other. After pointing out that a similar commander-in-chief litmus test was Bill Clinton's top priority in selecting a Vice President in '92, Obama feigned ignorance:

"I don't understand. If I am not ready, why do you think I would be such a great vice president? I don't understand. You can't say he is not ready on day one, then you want him to be your vice president."

Katika hili wamechemka na Jaluo ame-hammer the point home:

He also addressed what some have suggested is the motive underlying the discussion; namely, that Clinton is seeking to convince voters to support her as a means to secure both Dems on a general election ticket.

"So I don't want anybody here thinking that somehow, 'Maybe I can get both.' Don't think that way. You have to make a choice in this election."

He followed up by questioning why Sen. Clinton would suggest a joint ticket while she is currently in second place in pledged delegates and popular vote:

"I won twice as many states as Sen. Clinton. I won more of the popular vote than Sen. Clinton. I have more delegates than Sen. Clinton. So I don't know how someone in second place can offer the vice presidency to someone in first place. If I was in second place I could understand but I am in first place right now."

NImejaribu kucheki katika ma-blogs hata Hillary supporters wamekiri hii ilikuwa ni gaffe ambayo imewaonyesha as flip-flopping oh oh familiar terminology?
Leo Jaluo kumbe alikuwa anasubiri apumzike vyema nyumbani na mama na watoto wake karudi kwa nguvu! Let the contest continue.
