Posted at 10:20am on Jun. 14, 2008 Clintonista DNC Delegate for McCain
By Soren Dayton
This is making the Wisconsin Democratic Party very unhappy. They nominated someone that even their own hyper-activists can't support:
As an avid supporter of Hillary Rodham Clinton in the Democratic primaries, Debra Bartoshevich is not alone in her frustration over Clinton's defeat.
She’s not alone in refusing to support Barack Obama.
And she’s not entirely alone in saying she’ll vote this fall for Republican John McCain instead.
But what makes her unusual is that she holds these views as an elected delegate to the Democratic National Convention in Denver this summer.
Why? The biggest reason seems to be her sister, who served in Iraq and who wants a leader who she can believe in:
Encouraged by her sister, who has served in Iraq, Bartoshevich signed up as a supporter with “Citizens for McCain,” an arm of the campaign targeting Democrats and independents.
She just doesn't trust Barack Obama. Read on for why.

Posted at 5:15pm on Jun. 12, 2008 Iowa Students for Hillary Chair trashes Obama, endorses McCain, recommends McKinney as plan B
By Soren Dayton
This is so awesome. The Chairman of Iowa Students for Hillary endorses John McCain in a big ole letter to his organization. Needless to say, they don't like Barack Obama. Here's how much they don't like him:
We will put up someone who has been to Iraq once for a photo-op against someone who has a son serving in Iraq and has been there countless times, with Senator Clinton in some instances.
They don't think that Obama is qualified:
Senator Obama is unqualified for the job of Commander in Chief. He has said this himself at a press conference after the 2004 election after winning his Illinois seat. He has said he would invade Pakistan if necessary to attack al-Qaeda elements, which is a bad idea seeing how Pakistan has nuclear weapons and is unstable right now. His remarks on Pakistan sparked rioting there last year.
They point out that if you can't stomach John McCain, there is always Cynthia McKinney:
We think the endorsement will make more impact if it goes to John McCain, but we see Cynthia McKinney as a viable alternative and someone more qualified than Senator Obama to be President having served for longer in Congress.
