…why several reporters who were previously invited to attend a taping of The View today, which was to feature a Barbara Walters interview with Sen. Barack Obama, were suddenly dis-invited from the event? Is an announcement going to made during the taping that producers hope to keep secret until Friday when the taped program is expected to air? Several of The View ladies, including Whoopi Goldberg, have already endorsed Sen. Hillary Clinton for president.

Ann Althouse, the conservative law professor and legal blogger, has published photos of mailings sent by the Texas Obama campaign to her son. Althouse’s son is a Texas Democratic pledged delegate to the Hillary Clinton campaign and the mailings encourage delegates to “support Barack Obama at the county convention.” The letter is shown here via Chris Cohen’s Flickr Photrostream.

“It’s a tad hypocritical for Obama to encourage delegates to change sides, since he is the one who is trying to make a big principle out of binding the superdelegates at the national convention to the will of the voter,” writes Althouse.

On March 15, seven Iowa delegates pledged to John Edwards “switched” to Obama.

Kwame Kilpatrick, the recently indicted mayor of Detroit charged with perjury and obstruction of justice in a sex scandal, is a DNC superdelegate who is “uncommitted”, but reportedly leaning toward Barack Obama. Does the Obama campaign still desire his endorsement?

From a blog posting made by Larry Sinclair today:

Lately it seems that people have wanted to focus on my past as if I had been hiding something.  Even though I have always stated I do not run from, nor hide from my past actions at any point in my life. Remember, I am not the one running for President.  But Obama and I have something in common because HE sold cocaine as well.  While attacking my decisions in the past, these same people want myself and others to allow Barack Obama to receive votes without being looked at, questioned, or investigated in any matter that David Axelrod does not submit as allowable to the media.  Are Barack Obama’s past decisions not important here? 

Now would someone explain to me, your neighbors and the media in general, why is it that I am placed under this microscope by Obama supporters, and Obama surrogates yet we, as a nation , refuse to question the past of a man asking to be President of the United States.

Why is it “a smear campaign” when Obama is asked a direct question regarding his past, yet to question any other candidates past it is called the political process?  Why does Obama refuse to answer questions unless they are presented by the campaign’s hand picked media outlets? Why has Barack Obama and David Axelrod refused to turn over records, requested in writing, that are supposed to be open to the public?

Barack Obama IS a liar and Barack Obama DID use crack cocaine in November of 1999, and Barack Obama did SALE COCAINE in November 1999, to me, because I gave the money for the cocaine to BARACK OBAMA, and Barack Obama handed the cocaine to me.  That is the transaction, and that constitutes Barack Obama selling me cocaine.
