First and foremost- we would like to thank Ben Smith from Politico for mentioning yestodemocracy.org today, here. Ben, you're great man!

I just got a tip on this great article about stop-obama.org. Seems like the GOP did their part on stop-obama.org and have stopped blogging. Yeah, spread the lies and then leave the scene. Way to go Republicans! Yeah, these aren't stock photos:
Jamal McCoy
Juanita Gonzales
Gregory Chang
Jeff Gold
From our friends over at PUMAcentral:
Fellow Travellers
Jamal McCoy tried to drum up some traffic for stop-obama.org by posting at Free Republic. For those who don't know, Free Republic is a rabidly right wing web site that came to prominence during Bill Clinton's impeachment. You'll occasionally see its mostly middle-aged and overweight members (known as "Freepers") protesting in small numbers in support of various right-wing causes.
Timing
The stop-obama.org domain name was first registered on February 11, 2008, shortly after the Super Tuesday primaries and caucuses on February 5. Super Tuesday is when McCain pretty much locked up the Republican nomination and Barack Obama was starting to seriously threaten Hillary's chances at the nomination. This would have been an auspicious time for a Republican ratfucking operation to start targeting Obama.
Hey, guess what other domain was registered in February? http://clintonformccain.com
Wow, it's all just adding up piece by piece.
Reality is a bitter pill to swallow.

The first comment shows the essential irrationality of those people so caught up in the emotion of the campaign that they can't accept that they lost without conspiracy theories, anger, and a belief they are victims. I can't get angry at them, I feel sorry for them. They aren't letting themselves enjoy an historic campaign, they can't let go of their bitterness. However, maybe if they read this site they'll realize they are being used by people they normally would see as their opponents.

Scotterb- what a wonderfully eloquent, charming, and intelligent response.

Thanks for the hat-tip, Christina.
You know what else is funny about those 4 blogger photos? Three of 'em look like stock photos, but poor Gregory Chang's photo looks like it came out of a high school yearbook. It seems like they should've been able to find one decent glossy of an Asian man.
There's something so comical about the contrived diversity too. An African American man, a Latina woman, an Asian American man, and a Jewish man. It's just so blatantly transparent.

I know lol! That is what I mentioned in the post. They are COMPLETELY stock photos hahaha. I love that. It's like sesame street, or an old 80's sitcom- one of everyone!

Numbers do not lie, 46% of Hillary dems WIL NOT be voting for Obama. Check it out for yourself.

we already know what PUMA is all about.
It's a swift-boat organization and you've fallen for the Republican lies.
Show us a recent poll that backs up your claim. 46%... yeah right.

"Numbers do not lie, 46% of Hillary dems WIL NOT be voting for Obama. Check it out for yourself."
Pity you wrote this before the PEW research study on 10 July that showed 69% of Clinton supporters ALREADY were supporting Obama. 17% supported McCain, 12% were "undecided" And that remaining 2%? Would not vote for Obama period.
So of the 31% not yet behind Obama, 17% are GOP members and only 2% PUMA die-hards. And 12% still on the fence.
A bit of difference from your 46% claim, eh?

NoQuarter is a better example of batshit insanity

I have to say, I just love this site. An ENTIRE SITE DEDICATED TO ALL THINGS ANTI-PUMA. I mean it doesn't get any better than this. It's like Christmas every day.
This whole PUMA thing is absolutely mind-boggling really. It's sort of surreal right? They think they are NOT selling themselves down the river, when in actual fact, they are doing just that.
It shows the power of the human mind. We can convince ourselves to believe anything.
And by the way, the PUMAs love me about as much as they love you.
And Christina, because of your tireless efforts for sanity, I thought you might appreciate this as well:
