"Can We Ask? Yes We Can"
The RNC launched a Web site today -- Can We Ask? -- aimed at providing voters with a forum to ask questions of Barack Obama. Lest you think the fire will be friendly, well, think again. Here are the party's samples inquiries:
Why, as an Illinois state Senator, did he vote “present” over 130 times instead of “yes” or “no” on difficult issues like abortion, crime, and guns?
On fiscal responsibility, how he intends to pay for over $660 billion in his new spending proposals and whether he can do it without raising taxes on families and small businesses?
Why he voted against funding for our troops after promising not to use them as pawns in a war funding debate?
Why did he tell donors in San Francisco that the economy has driven small town voters to “cling” to guns and religion?
And here's the accompanying project vid, a very creepy piece. The party turns "Yes We Can" -- Obama's mantra on the stump -- into a dark, dismal, zombie-like chant.

I don't think people who have suffered loss of jobs, jobs going overseas, a war that should never have been authorized, high gas prices, high food prices, loss of homes, company's going belly-up, bridges falling, higher and higher insurance premiums, etc. under Republican domination will allow themselves to be "fooled" again!

Obama and his supporters always say "ZOMG! Negative Ads!" on everyone else, yet his camp will throw low-balls at the other side.
Such hypocrisy!
Obama voted for gas-tax relief in his state senate and now he is against it when people need it the most? He says Hillary only has tricks and he is the only one with long-term plan.
Such lies, Hillery has better long-term energy plan than he does in addition to her short-term relief.
Obama is nothing but a lying politician who will saying anything to make himself look good, including calling his own grandmother a racist.

Clinton takes Indiana by a ‘razor’ and Obama wins North Carolina by a huge margin. Nevertheless, Kentucky, Montana and West Virginia are still to come.
The Democratic race for nomination is still very much alive – and most likely to be decided by superdelegates
If you’re tired of waiting around for those super delegates to make a decision already, go to LobbyDelegates.com and push them to support Clinton or Obama
If you haven't done so yet, please write a message to each of your state's superdelegates at http://www.lobbydelegates.com
Obama Supporters:
Sending a note to current Obama supporters lets them know it's appreciated, sending a note to current Clinton supporters can hopefully sway them to change their vote to Obama, and sending a note to the uncommitted folks will hopefully sway them to vote for Obama. It's that easy...
Clinton Supporters too …. !
It takes a moment, but what's a few minutes now worth to get Clinton in office?! Those are really worth !
