NE Super D For Obama
Audra Ostergard, associate chair of the Nebraska Democratic Party and a member of the Democratic National Committee, announced her support today for Barack Obama.
“I have carefully weighed input from Democrats across Nebraska and closely watched results from primaries and caucuses across the country,” Ostergard said in a statement released by Obama's campaign. “There are compelling arguments for supporting both candidates, but my decision came down to what’s best for our country and for Nebraska. In that regard, I am confident in my decision to endorse Senator Obama. He has a proven ability to activate Democrats in Nebraska.”

The Two-headed Giant that Barack is battling — the Clintons and the Republican Machine are very good, I would say excellent at re-labelling a person and re-characterizing them by use of the Media brought and paid for by the Republican Party mostly to shape, mold, distort, lie, carricaturize a person so the very thing they are is not seen and what they are not is seen! Barack's achievement in Pa --to close the enormous gap between him and Clinton was a monumentual success and not given credit. It is a fact that the Clintons' have an army of political hacks all over the country that owe them and they call in favors which skewes the odds in favor of the Clintons' -- Barack does not have that long coatail to depend on. But, what he does have are political people who are tired of the spin and dishonesty and loyalty to the corporations and who want change so they forge alliances with Obama whom they know incorporates the best hope for unity, and inspiration which can bring about real change. Obama does not have to tear down his oppnents or speak with a Loud Voice for the masses to hear him. However, he is up against a Mighty Giant in the Clintons and the Republicans: Joe Scarborough, Pat Buchanan, Wolf Blitzer, and Fox News TV which berate and belittle Barack daily, 24 hours a day, and yet he is the one that is still standing and still winning, although bloodied and bruised, as Rush Limbaugh asked his loyalists to do. The very Republicans that are helping Hillary now will turn on her like a mighty sword come Fall if she becomes the nominee! They must know some things that they are holding back on because they are trying their darndest to get her to become the Democratic nominee, that is who they want to run against and so she has a stallworth ally in the Republicans for now. I don't think she is going to make it over the goalpost, no matter what. As Michael Moore so ably pointed out in his recent endorsement of Barack, Hillary Clinton chides Barack for his Pastor, Rev. Wright, yet who did they turn to when Bill was facing Impeachment due to the Monical Lewinsky scandal, who did they call -- yes, the very Rev. Wright himself, such hypocrisy! However, we, the people do have a say in this process, although that too can be suspect with some of the "voting machines" still in process. Yed, despite the odds, we will continue to battle on for indepedence and a true democratic say in this process of ours!
