One-Fourth of Democrat Party Used to Being Ignored by Maintream Media

PUMAs: Been There, Done That
These days, the most energetic investigations, the loudest warnings and the people most experienced with unpleasant Obama campaign tactics come not from the Republican Party, but from a segment of the Democrat Party: the PUMAs.
They represent a significant proportion of the Democratic Party–a portion the Mainstream Media is loathe to acknowledge, let alone report.
Some became PUMAs after what they felt was unfair treatment of Hillary Clinton. Some because of the unfair treatment in the media of Sarah Palin. Some because they cannot support a candidate who Joe Biden said “wasn’t ready” just months ago–before Biden became Barack Obama’s running mate.
Party Unity My Ass (PUMA)
PUMA is a movement born shortly after Hillary Clinton conceded the Democrat nomination to Barack Obama. PUMA blogs and websites almost immediately popped up on the Internet.
* P.U.M.A.
* The Real Barack Obama
* Democrats For McCain
* PUMA
* PUMApac
* The Confluence
* PUMA Women
* Hillbuzz
The above websites are only the tip of the PUMA iceberg.
A sizable portion of Democrats say they will not support Barack Obama. Seems like that would be quite a story for some enterprising Big Media reporter, doesn’t it?
Perhaps the organization the Obama campaign has set up apart from local Democrats–Obama’s Campaign for Change offices number in the hundreds nationwide–would be a story.
The answer: no.
From Obama Campaign’s National Network Separate from the Democratic Party:
An AP-Yahoo News poll claims that Democrats who backed Hillary Clinton in the primaries are still not warming up to Barack Obama. Fifty-eight percent of Clinton supporters now back Obama.
That was the same percentage who said they backed Obama in a June, when Clinton called it quits and the PUMA (Party Unity My Ass) movement was born.
The poll shows that while Obama has gained ground among Clinton’s supporters — 69 percent view him favorably now, up 9 percentage points from June — this has yet to translate into more of their support.
In part, this is because their positive views of Republican presidential nominee John McCain have also improved during this period. Those supporting McCain have also edged up from 21 percent to 28 percent, with the number of undecided staying constant, the survey showed.
That was last month. Have things changed since then?
Hillary Clinton has been campaigning for Obama–and there are plenty of stories that report that the PUMAs practically don’t exist.
But is that true–or wishful thinking?

Are you people INSANE?
Dear PUMA’s,
You really are the best-kept secret! I didn’t know about this phenomenon until now. I just voted for McCain and I saw three signs “Another Democrat for McCain.” Must have been put there by PUMA’s.
I’m glad we can vote together on this. I am an Independent. Obama really scares me because of his radical leftist ideology. Not to mention how he broke his promise about using only federal funds for his campaign, and proceeded to break the bank in his efforts to buy the presidency.
Thank you for all you are doing for our country. The media pundits are in for a shock tonight, largely thanks to you!
I am a proud PUMA!!!! I was a Hillary supporter who became totally disgusted at how the MSM and the Obama campaign and its supporters treated her. They all have the “sexism” written all over their faces. Now they are doing the same thing to Palin.
Obama has ZERO executive experience. I simply can not believe how Obama and his supporters call on Palin’s “lack of experience.” WHAT ABOUT OBAMA????? HE HAS ZERO!!!! GOVERNOR Palin is running for VP, while Junior senator Obama is running for the highest office in the land.
Well then, some of you say, McCain is just too old. Yes, McCain is 72 years old, but he has proven he is strong by the way he has kept going and going throughout this campaign. McCain’s mother is STILL ALIVE. That should tell you something about his strong genes.
I am so sick of the word “change” coming from Obama’s lips. Change????? Gimme a break!!!! Obama, with his lack of experience, his terrorists ties with Ayers, his long and close relationship with radical and America-hating pastor Wright.and his shady past, will, if elected, definitely “change” this country’s situation from bad to worse.
For those of you that love to associate McCain with Bush: McCain is his own man and he has proven this over and over again throughout his successful political career. What about phony Obama??? Let’s associate him with Reverend Wright then. If you still disagree: I rather have 4 more years of Bush than 4 more years of TOTAL DISASTER from Obama.
MCCAIN PALIN ALL THE WAY!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAH!
Yall can come home anytime. We’re waiting.
