Too Funny! Bloggers form theory that New Hampshire vote was rigged Dallas Morning News ^ \| 01.10.08 \| KAREN BROOKS ...bloggers across the nation keyed into the fact that 81 percent of New Hampshire votes were being counted on machines that an HBO documentary alleged are easily hacked........ . AUSTIN – The results weren't even in when the blogosphere started to hum with a theory that sharply divided Democrats online: Barack Obama lost to Hillary Rodham Clinton in New Hampshire because the vote was rigged. From Americablog.com to Crooks and Liars to several news blogs, readers posted their concerns – drawing the gleeful eye of conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh on Wednesday morning, who pointed to a debate raging on Democratic Underground. That site, which has more than 100,000 registered users, was alive with debate throughout the day – mainly between Obama supporters and Clinton fans. "Please come back to your senses," one commenter wrote. "What is most disturbing is the fact some people are accusing the fellow Democrats of fraud. Please, dear reasonable Obama supporter, tell those people to stop." (Excerpt) Read more at dallasnews.com ...

Was Carville trying to transfer that canine abusing football player's negative PR to Obama??...Clintons have pulled all their moth-eaten "gofers" from the closet: >What if a top GOP consultant compared Barack Obama to a "dog"? James Carville, who acknowledged he was serving as an unpaid consultant to the Clinton campaign, used the metaphor on tonight's Larry King. LARRY KING: What is your role, Jim? Are you involved in this campaign? JAMES CARVILLE: I am friendly with the campaign. I give them advice, like today, I'd be glad to share the advice I gave. I said look, Senator Obama is coming after y'all, he was bragging today he comes from the rough and tumble of Chicago politics. And I said "be ready, he put you on notice. This hope stuff, forget about that, he's coming after it. I understand he's been hit. He's like any politician that's been hit, you know, it's a hit dog that barks, and we're going to see a lot of barking from Senator Obama." And the Clinton people better batten down, because David [Axelrod, chief Obama strategist] and people like that who grew up in Chicago politics, they know the rough and tumble of Chicago politics, and they know how to do this, and Senator Obama today put them on notice and I hope they take that notice seriously. KING: Are you therefore a non-paid consultant? CARVILLE: Yes, I don't make it. I haven't taken a nickel in any domestic political consulting since 1994. But I'm friendly with them, but I'm friendly with David too, but -- KING: Is James Carville right? Is your candidate now slugging? DAVID AXELROD: Of course not. If there was barking dogs in New Hampshire, Larry, they were barking over in the Clinton camp. I mean, President Clinton and others were out there pounding away. Look, I understand that that's a tactic, and James is the best in the business. I feel like we must be making progress if they drag the Hall of Famers out to talk for them on the air. Comment by newsbusters.com--So, will we be seeing outraged cries in the MSM about the mean-spirited, and who knows what else, nature of Carville's canine analogy? Why do I have a funny feeling the liberal media won't bark?< newsbusters.com
