Obama has a 13-point NH Lead. Its great to see so many believers flock to see Obama in the flesh I'm glad to see Obama ahead of Clinton in New Hampshire Primary with so many Americans finding a new champion in Obama including Bill Bradley and John Anderson backing Obama how can anyone stop him? It seems that the endorsements for Obama just keep on coming in. Barack Obama has won the backing from Will Smith Even as Clinton's emotions flow
I guess its true, as the Washington post points out, Obama's rise has sidelined left wing bloggers. And the whitosphere is pissed. Check this out, the Washington Post article notes that: Last week, Markos Moulitsas, founder of the popular liberal blog Daily Kos, accused Obama of embracing a "right-wing talking point" as he campaigned and said, "I don't want to go into the next election starting off with half the country already not wanting to vote for Democrats. We've done that in 2004, 2000." In a blog post headlined "Obama slams Gore," Moulitsas wrote: "Psst, Barack, slamming John Kerry and Al Gore is what Republicans do. Last time I checked, Gore won his election. And really, is Obama going to argue now that the nation was divided because of the Democrats' fault? Is that the latest right-wing talking point he wants to peddle?"
The Washington Post also reports: "his relationships with big-name bloggers, such as Jerome Amstrong of MyDD, Jame Hamsher of Firedoglake and Matt Stoller of OpenLeft, has been strained. "What Obama did in Iowa, getting all those young people to vote, was really inspirational. It was a miraculous achievement," Hamsher said. "But the idea that you can reach out to Republicans and they'll work with you isn't so convincing to people who have watched the Republicans in Congress. There are those who are worried that it's a false hope he's giving. More HERE
PS: Lets not forget My Left Wing who says: The Irony in '08: John Edwards, White Man, Is the Best Candidate.

The bloggers you mentioned have made some good points, kind of.
Yes, it is time to move beyond mere rhetoric and partisan squabbling. The bloggers you quoted, however, are not quite ready for that. They expect Republicans to move in lock-step and so they want someone in the presidency who won't cave, who won't give in, who won't compromise.
Clinton will compromise, Edwards won't. Obama...in remains to be seen. Some say he will, some say he won't. What say you?
I say this: If you think Daily Kos is "hatin'" wait till you read this

Yes, they're baaaacccckkkk! The return of the Swift Boaters! . If Obama thinks the lefty bloggies are bad, wait till the Willie Horton ads, the Hussein ads, the Madrassa ads start rollin'.
You know Kos is CIA and My Left Wing is part of the Kos network. Don't forget the supposedly liberal blog Talkingpointsmemo by Josh Micah. His headline for the win in Iowa was Huckabee, Obama Win or something to that affect. He highlights the Republican first WTF!!!
kos said tonight he's voting for Obama.
