Obama is wrong here, so you attack the messenger.

These Obama fanatics want all of us to take those childish bait. Forget about it.

When I refused to take their bait, refused to answer their dumb question, they got hysterically upset. SWEET.

Remember, Obama also likes to use this sort of 'bully' tactics to bully people within democratic party. They thought they had money now, so they could bully.

Don't be so short-sighted, just imagine what will happen in a few months when he loses badly.

He is your typical empty suit with no substance. A media creation.

You know I have seen some front page post about Clinton from other posters I didn't like but I will not post this kind of diary , its ridiculous.

" Much more on the flip "  then there wasn't .

After discussing with about all of the campaigns, I told them all I wasn't interested in working a presidential campaign at this time. Instead, I've focused on other projects.

So did Jerome or any group or company that he is involved in apply for any type of contract or position with Obama's campaign? No.

But I heard that individuals, one in particular from Blue State Digital, were spreading such rumors lies.

And if he doesn't answer the question I guess that the rumor is true. Oh my, how clever.

This Obama is completely insane. If democratic party happens to nominate him, it's probably going to be a rout... Just a thought. He'll be trounced by the worst GOP candidate.

Typical "shooting the messenger" crapola again.   Something unhinged about these obsessive diaries.  

that the diarist asked Jerome for a job and was rebuffed and now writes stupid diaries spreading false rumors about Jerome.

Look- I disagree with him on this topic today- but  this is stupid. Can't people simply disagree without resorting to attack them?

Asshole.

If any candidate starts making noises that make you think they are going to wreck the country (and, of course, the party), then, when enough of these noises get made, you are going to get critical of that candidate. Obama has been shooting what some of us see as some very inaccurate shots from the hip, lately. I don't blame Jerome at all for getting tired of Obama's mistakes. Bush has made us all tired of dumb mistakes, and presidential stupidity is much out of favor currently. Maybe it will go into fashion again someday.

I used to think the Edwards boosters were too agressive but this is looking bad for Obama. Just so people will know, you can't make your favorite candidate look any better by attacking people who do not look to support your candidate. They all have flaws, and we have to argue about those flaws, but we should try very hard to avoid being rude.

Then there's this:

something is up here, I may get banned for saying this but the anti-Obama spin on everything by Jerome does seem to be a personal vandetta of some sort, if Obama takes a "netroots" friendly position he attacks it, if he has a more hawksih position that's bad too, what disturbs me is not the fact that he's anti-Obama it's that he doesn't want to admit it and simply be regarded as for another candidate. Instead Jerome pretends to be some sort of portrayer of conventional wisdom of the blogesphere calling out Obama time after time with hit pieces camaflauged as anylasis.

the only thing that troubles me is if he's seen as some kind of non biased observer, if Jerome want's to turn this site into a cesspool of anti-Obama diatribe it's his right, but other media sources who look for quotes and backround about what the blogosphere thinks about the dem candidates need to know where people are coming from and why.

Of course, if anyone criticizes Obama and doesn't praise him to the skies, there has to be some other agenda other than they simply don't agree with him because to "know" Obama is to "love" him.
