In the West Virginia Democrat primary, Obama was challenged by a prisoner from Texas and managed a significant victory of 20 points. Democratic strategists see these results as proof that Obama is regaining the momentum of 2008. Like the reports on the economy and jobs, news that can be spun with a positive view is vital to the Obama campaign.
Obama’s latest challenger, inmate Keith Judd, put up a valiant effort from the Federal Correctional Institution in Texas for the Democrat Presidential bid. Unfortunately, Judd has been serving time since 1999 for making threats at the University of New Mexico, but despite his apparent disadvantage, he managed to control 40% of votes cast and Obama tallied less than 60% for his first major victory of the 2012 campaign.
Judd ran with a skeleton campaign group, actually it is questionable whether he had any support; he managed to get on the ballot with a $2500 filing fee, a form known as a notarized certification of announcement. State Democratic Party Executive Director Derek Scarboro said no one has filed to be a delegate for Judd, but he only needed 15% of the vote to qualify for a delegate at the national convention. Sadly, this political miscarriage only serves to prove the Elitist nature of federal politics, without funding, the little man doesn’t stand a chance against those with backers like George Soros.
Even though some West Virginians were reluctant to vote for a federal inmate incarcerated in Texas, it is obvious that Obama controls a percentage of loyalists within the Democrat Party.
Hopefully, Judd will command a greater percentage of the Democrat Party upon his release.

We should all pitch in and send that man some hair care products.
Do you think he will get a speaking position at the convention?
Even more telling, this Fox News report goes on to tell about 18% in OK voted for Randall Terry, 18% in AL voted ‘uncommitted’ than vote for Dear Leader, and 21% in NC voted “no preference”. Even in his own party, the NObama vote seems high.
Having a pony tail doesn’t make you a pony’s ass but One could definately be a horse’s ass without one.
I think it is fascinating.
Especially the part about how, “Judd ran with a skeleton campaign group….”
In Wisconsin a few Republicans did the same thing on the Democrat ballot.
They simply got their names on the ballots and never spent a penny.
So….
How’d they do?
Fake Democrat Gary Ellerman of Lake Mills in the 13th Senate District garnered 28% of all of the Democrat votes.
Fake Democrat Tamra Varebrook of Union Grove in the 21st Senate District got 32% of them in that district.
Fake Democrat James Engel of Fall Creek in the 23rd Senate District got 36% of the Democrats’ votes!
Just imagine how well these ”fakes” might have done had they campaigned!

I sure hope they are well checked this time, this is a criminal action,
how come they are not in prison, instead of in the WHITE HOUSE?
THEY ARE CHANGING THE NAME OF THE WHITE HOUSE INTO
THE….. AND THE….. AND THE….
Maybe the new White House strategy will be to campaign from prison. There may be many in this administration who could end up in prison if anyone has the guts to prosecute.

yes, it make me think of the one in the MAFIA, HOW SCARE THEY ARE OF THE HEAD PERSON
THE GODFATHER MOVIE TELL US THE STORY, WELL IT GIVE THE FEELING OF THAT SAME FEAR
IN THE GOVERNMENT
Judd might have received more votes with a regulation haircut and a dress shirt, but he did all right.
This is incredible news because it means that Illinois’ Governors who are in prison still have a chance to remain in politics!!
His first campaign ad comes out. A third party candidate perhaps?

Another Vet: This is outrageous and a lot of fun, who knows, he may just gather up enough support to be a real contender. Go Keith!
SKOOKUM
HI,
HE MIGHT SCREW UP THE ELECTION BETWEEN HIM AND RON PAUL,
THE TWO MIGHT JUST TAKE TOO MUCH OF ROMNEY
DO YOU THINK?
BYE
I wouldn’t count this as a victory for Obama, Democrats. Amost 40 percent of the voting base of Democrats went for this guy over Obama and there is no unity or love in Virgina over what Obama is doing to their businesses by Executive orders, mainly what’s happened to Coal business.
If anything, this is should be an alert that Democrats need to spend a lot of energy and time in West Virgina to change the negative attitudes the State’s Citizens are expressing. If this 40 percent of the voting block of Demcorats do not back Obama in the Nov and go with the opposition, is it still a victory for Obama?
West Virginia is COAL COUNTRY.
So, Obama loses 40 points worth of Democrat votes to a nobody in West Virginia.
How does he deal with that?
Simple.
He changed two words.*
As if words are actions.
Compare the BEFORE and AFTER screen captures of Obama’s campaign site:

Yes, Obama added the words: CLEAN COAL.
That is probably all he will do.
I mean the guy forgets about the recession for periods of time!

KILLING A NATION
After President Obama’s humiliating showing against a West Virginia prison inmate earlier this month, a more serious humiliation could be in making after the May 22 Arkansas primary.
According to a new poll of Arkansas Democrats taken by Talk Business-Hendrix College, Obama is only seven points ahead (45-38) of his challenger, a relatively unknown attorney by the name of John Wolfe.
According to The Weekly Standard, Wolfe hasn’t done a single radio or television ad.
The media is trying to keep all this quiet, of course.
I know next to nothing about this guy.
Is he for real?
