Why is the Obama campaign being so negative and nasty about Gov. Palin?



When Obama announced Biden as his VP pick, Sen. McCain called Biden and congratulated him. BUT when McCain announced her as his VP pick, the Obama campaign dismissed her as the “former may of a town of 9000.”
Obama compared his running his campaign (as if he and not his campaign manager actually runs it) to Gov. Palin running Wasilla.
Obama won’t even acknowldege Palin is a GOVERNOR.
Now they’re spreading a nasty email saying Palin tried to ban books in ‘96, and some of the books on the list weren’t even published in’96!!

How low has the Obama campaign sunk? What happened to a “different kind of politics?”
Please answer before the Obamaphiles get this questioned banned!

    Because she’s a vulgar, evil little beast!

  6. D M Says:

    Because Obama is running scared… Palin will take all of the Hillary supporters he was counting on.

  7. Robel G Says:

    why is palin so negative to obama vise versa

  8. Vegan Says:

    The game changed and they don’t understand the new rules. The more people are talking about Palin, the less they’re talking about Obama and the issues.

  9. Marii ? Says:

    Obama actually congratulated her.
    Negative and nasty? Sweetie that’s politics.
    Did you not see the RNC where all people did was diss Obama?
    Don’t be double-standarded.

    Fear of losing

    How do you know it’s his campaign sending the e mails.. The truth is out about Palin. Typical politician.

    Why are butterflies so pretty?

  13. dpsimswm Says:

    She is unqualified. And by the way, she did inquire into the process of how to ban books. That means she intended to have them banned.

    Her Church believes in the End Times.

    Read Isaiah 21 which speaks of the End Times prophecy. In this context, Elam is Persia. Persia is now modern day Iran.

    This passage is also linked to Revelation 14:8;

    These passages call for the fall of Babylon. Is the USA not a modern day Babylon?

    “Pray for our military men and women who are striving to do what is right. Also, for this country, that our leaders, our national leaders, are sending [U.S. soldiers] out on a task that is from God,” she exhorted the congregants. “That’s what we have to make sure that we’re praying for, that there is a plan and that that plan is God’s plan.”

  14. EVE Says:

    The book thing is not true, but there are many secrets that are coming to light that one cannot dismiss lightly.

    CNN touched on many of those tonight, most of which were tossed around in here earlier today.

    I’m more concerned that she’s just another Pentecostal and we already know that these people are very ELITE and extreme in their beliefs.

    Frankly have you ever watched anyone talk in tongues? It’s kind of like watching someone have an epileptic attack but worse.

    VP of the USA??? Get real.

    With Russia moving in (worried no doubt the USA is losing it’s mind!) there is no room for errors in judgement as to who best to lead this country.

    We know that same old has BROKEN this country to pieces. Just listen to the news each night as more and more facts are revealed.

  15. Agent 99 Says:

    Very simple. When you can´t attack on substance, you go for personal attacks.

  16. pablo_asawa Says:

    every knock for Sarah Palin is another vote for John McCain

  17. Who Says:

    Obama is staining his panties from fright.

  18. Progressive Says:

    Well if Palin wants to play with the big boys; she’ll have to leave the skirt at home with her emotional feelings. No good VP Nominee will mustard the task of VP, if they carry their emotions on their shoulders.

  19. Casey B Says:

    I don’t think they’re sinking low at all. Palin is unqualified and overrated.

  20. alladrm Says:

    I was all set to vote for McCain until he tapped this piece of white trash.

  21. Bob Says:

    i’m pretty sure both sides are trying as hard they can to win

  22. TRUTHâ„¢ Says:

    Well first I think everyone in the Obama campaign was just a little shocked considering SENATOR MCCAIN would always preach to everyone that Obama “doesn’t have enough experience” to run the country .. but then he turns around and picks Sarah Palin - Not many people even knew who she was .. and she certainly isn’t experienced either .. ANOTHER THING is all the scandal behind that women ..

  23. dianaparisian Says:

    Just a small sample of the proposed “change” obahminuques are bringing. Called flip flops which are better used as feet apparel versus walking all over the American citizens.

  24. SugarMagnolia Says:

    Nothing has been said that hasnt been common sense…or deserved. Id say that Palins speech was much more nasty than Obamas campaign announcements, which have been nothing but facts.

  25. Smiley Virus Says:

    have you never followed an election before? this is par for the course

  26. lucy lu Says:

    You know, it’s a campaign. They’re all politicians, and it’s like choosing the lesser of two evils. The Repbulicans have attacked Obama for being “too nice” in the past, so now he’s stooping pretty dirty himself. It makes me sad. But, I don’t like Sarah Palin. That lady gives me weird vibes, and I’m a woman and would love to see a woman President or V.P.!
    I think you have to look at how both sides attack each other, they’re just different blows in different styles.

  27. mommyto2girls Says:

    she is clearly a threat. that is why.

    mccain/palin ‘08

  28. Republicans are cowards Says:

    He is talking in Republican’s language now.

  29. Media Control Says:

    She has attracted far more votes than anyone anticipated. They must take her out or lose. She must be very, very careful. They must cancel her influence out by any means necessary.

  30. see me Says:

    Palin threw the first blow, and now she has blows coming her way. Are you saying SHE CANT HANDLE IT.

  31. Matt J Says:

    Oh, they’re a different kind of politics alright. Barack is gonna scratch his way to the top, and damn anyone else who gets in his way.
    …Of course, maybe I’m wrong. Isn’t that how politics usually works? Haha. It’s really a dog-eat-dog campaign this year, because look who’s running, for God’s sake! The black ex-Muslim against whitey Repub.
    It doesn’t get any crazier than that.
    Just let politics be politics, I guess, and hope for the best.

  32. amalone Says:

    I guess he got his talent from being around friends like J. Wrights and Tony Rezko.

    Let them do it and we just vote!

  33. ate8 Says:

    It’s the Change he has been preaching, along with Rev. Wright.
    Point fingers, blame everyone else, and be very, very good and defending yourself.
    This is the theme of the Democratic Party.

  34. rocio Says:

    Obama is a very respectful man. He is making questions and i do not hear answer. There is no answer?

  35. Louisiana Hot Boy Says:

    So the Reps. haven’t been nasty calling Obama a Muslim, a terrorist, oh, and constantly bringing up his race?

  36. Wena Wena Says:

    this question goes both ways. Obama went thru a lot worse. they can give it, but can’t take it.

  37. osamaforobama Says:

    It’s fear!

  38. Jake M Says:

    Because Mccain is a complete hypocrite. Everything he said about obamas lack of experience is completely gone as an argument towards him now because its very likely hell die in office and shell be president. Id take obama over her any day.

  39. fattpill Says:

    for the EXACT same reason you discredited what OBAMA has done. to further your version of propaganda. I have accuall heard Obama call GOV Palin by her correct title. so I will answer your question with LIES LIES LIES

  40. Toni Says:

    Has anyone realized that everytime they bash Sarah Palin, they score another vote for McCain. So let them rave on and we will see McCain/Palin waltz right into the White House.

    Go McCain/Palin

  41. arklatexrat Says:

    He is kicking himself for not capitulating and nominating Hilary. He left himself open for this brilliant campaign move by McCain that will completely turn the tide on this election.

    I think he was headed for defeat anyway because he is an empty suit, but this just hastened it and he knows it and it is killing him.

    You live by the sword, you die by the sword.

    His campaign was launched by a woman (Oprah),to beat out a woman (Hilary), but wait, not so fast, there’s Sarahcuda!

    I think his misogyny as well as his racism is beginning to show. Didn’t he kind of trash his mom in his books, and act all ashamed because she was white?

  42. outragedwomaninflorida Says:

    OMG I am so sick of people crying over damn Palin.
    My God, I don’t care about her knocked up kid, baby on the hip,
    what she hunts or what damn plane she sold.

    If the Republicans can’t handle their person being called out then they shouldn’t have chosen her.

    They are handling her with kid gloves if you ask me.
    Let her out to answer questions.
    They won’t do that because they have her under lock and key
    because she is like monkey doing tricks.
    She is only there for the show.
    When it is over…they put her right back in the cage.

  43. SMARTY Says:

    One reason is she started at the convention with that old Republican tactic lie about you opponent and repeat it enough until people who don’t bother to check facts believe the lies.
    The list of all the lies are too numerous to mention. Plus she is lying about here accomplishments because she has a very thin resume.
    All this is upsetting to hear her lie on a daily basis and sling mud to cover up that fact she is an emptie pants siut.

  44. FAshionPassion Says:

    watch CNN, also did you not see the commercials that McCain approved of attacking Obama during his night. You didn’t see that ont he Republican debates. Also i just saw an attack ad on the “Support Your troops” from McCain. I mean come on GIVE IT A REST for a night. he did those attack campaigns during the Olympics to. Being perfectly honest the whole attack campaign was about how obama had no experience, yet this lady came out of nowhere, NO ONE KNEW WHO SHE WAS. Let’s be honest so…

    watch CNN it’s enlightening, well read anything but i doubt you will be/c your question was already loaded. Doesn’t seem like you’re into learning the truth. when both sides come together maybe finally we can get together to really make the government and every other corrup t thing stop taking our money!!!! Politicians period fly in private planes stay at expensive hotels, etc on our money. If we knew the stuff they did, we’d be more closer together as a society to fight against us losing taxpayer dollars!!!! I mean come on, politicians flying their family FIRST CLASS to play golf or go to Disney World!!!!

  45. Jupiter Ceasar Leprechaun II Says:

    why wont the grand oil party stop smearin Obama. Do u whine when he is called racist,muslim,inexp etc or are u in the chotus

  46. Mike2K8 Says:

    If Gov. Palin were a man you wouldn’t have said a word you sexist a-hole.

  47. Xavier M Says:

    lets not over do it…

    Biden has been in the press for years and we all knew who he was 20 years ago…McCain to

    Obama has had his feet shoved in the fire for over a year now…nobody had any problem with that.

    The dug into every inch of his past, and family life and made 1000 of lies up about it…that was OK to.

    Now that the shoe is on the other foot….you cry “unfair”?

    please….your unknown will go through the same stuff their unknown did

  48. joey1305 Says:

    Palin accepting the nomination to be Vice President was the nail in the coffin of Obama’s campaign. Obama is attacking her, because he is trying to take the wind out of the McCain/Palin sail. Obama originally thought that by comparing McCain to Bush, he could easily waltz into the White House. McCain’s record in the Senate easily diffused those attacks. Obama must now resort to the only tactic left in his arsenal. Coincidentally, it’s the only tactic that has a history of working for him…beating up on women. The negative campaign he ran against Hillary won him the nomination…I guess he thinks that an negative campaign against a Vice Presidential candidate will win him the general election.

    Memo to Obama: Actions speak louder than words…If you are going to parade around the country for 3 years preaching “change”, don’t nominate a 30+ year Washington insider (with more experience than you) to be your V.P.

    Truthfully, the obamabots are pissed because only demoncraps are allowed to pander to minorities for votes. McCain broke the unwritten rule. By their rationale it is perfectly acceptable to vote for Barrack because of his skin color…but it is unacceptable to vote for McCain for any reason…sounds a little discriminatory to me(ageism and sexism…not to mention racism against whitey)…but that’s liberals for you…

  49. Ghost of Tom Joad Says:

    First off, didn’t Palin start this in the first place by mocking Obama’s public service? And secondly, Obama has been rather cautious to avoid attacking Palin directly, such that he has even said he would fire any staff member who talked about her familiy.

    Palin did want to ban books, but never it never got enacted.

    But can you actually tie this internet rumor to the Obama campaign specifically? If not, then it is not evidence that Obama is being so negative. And again, McCain has been going negative and nasty from the beginning, so as long as Obama remains truthful about the subject, I don’t see the problem.
