1. Other variations, too.
Like alleged "Edwards supporters*" without a dog in the race constantly attacking only Obama.

*Not referring to all Edwards supporters, just a very small handful.*

7. I also love the "I don't have a candidate"
That gives their bullshit extra credence.

2. It's cool, Obama will probably lose a few voters but nothing too significant
it's bound to happen. However, not nearly enough to shift this race.

4. Noticed? Yea. It's called "Rove On the Brain" syndrome.
Callers to Ed Schultz show are sounding like this.

Huffington Post has excellent account on what Obama actually say (in context)

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/david-coleman/i-was-there-what-obama-re_b_96553.html.

and Josh Marshall has a good note on the Rove On the Brain thing.

6. I'm the biggest Obama supporter in the entire western hemisphere
but I'm not sure I can vote for him after the bitter comment. No one is bitter in this country because everything is swell. I know this because Mitt, John ,George and Hillary told me so. "Swell and Resilient" - that should be Hillary's new slogan. or maybe "I'm just like you, except that I'm also filthy rich" - that would work too.
