Joan I think you are way off base on this remark in your post: "that despite his impressive showing so far in the 2008 primary season, he's still mostly the candidate of coastal liberals, lefty intellectuals, Ivy League check-writers and African-Americans, and he isn't doing enough to reach the white working-class voters that a Democrat will need to beat John McCain in November"
What Planet are you on. I am a 51 year old white blue collar 33 year Democrat and can see through the Hillary mirrors and smoke screen. Bill Clinton pretty much said the same thing about white people with not the same words that Barack used but the exact same meaning. Now how do you explain all the people in the western most United States that have overwhelmingly gone for Obama. I do not think this fits your description of Barack Obama's base as quoted above. I know you are a Clinton supporter but please wake up and see the writing on the wall. Check out the Peter Paul Law Suit comming up in your home state that was reported on CNN tonight. It said the court date will be set April 25th. How much trust do you have in someone who lies about campaign money and lies about Bosnia sniper fire. Call it what you want but Barack did misspeak on the cling and bitter comment but did not lie. My wife is white, 46 years old and she thinks Hillary is really not helping the womens cause at all in fact she is taking the Democrats down with her Tanya Harding moves.
