Yeah, Obama busses his crowds all over the country. Those darkies do that; they have a thing about busses: back, front, driver, thrown under, all of that shit your racist pals fixate upon. What Obama has done, like it or not, has been to out-lead a woman who practically had the damned nomination handed to her by the party insiders and the media whores. But Obama- maybe it was the white half- out-organized, out-planned, out fundraised, and out maneuvered the Big billary machine, every which way but loose. Originally an Edwards supporter, I gauged the choices left. I've read every Clinton book- they sit on the shelves in the room where I type- and I read Obama's books. His are vastly superior in language, clarity, passion, and vision. HIllary is a hack; a very bright hack, but at her best with her butt in a chair going over papers. She might make an excellent appellate judge, or a Secretary of Education. She's not an executive; She's not a leader. She rode her philandering husband's pickup to where she is; this makes her a feminist icon? IN what world? bill was a sellout. his record is her record. and she's 190 delegates down, with Obama about 50 to 60 away from sealing the deal. If he has a brain in his head- and I would think the editor of the Harvard Law Review might have a brain- he won't touch her as veepee with a ten foot version of Big Bill's Big One. Now, go graze with the rest of the mindless masses, yearning to be shorn. Baaaaaa.
Sod off. Obama received numerous credible death threats, and started having heavy secret service security because of that lamentable fact. you, on the other hand, are a jerk, and grasping at straws to explain away the plain fact that it doesn't take a free concert for Obama to draw huge crowds, or an uncatchable lead in delegates. Sit on that and spin. Please note neither race nor gender played any role in my advising you to insert your pustules of opinion in the orifice of your choice. you think assassination is a game? That it can't happen again? What a sad deluded tiny minded sheep.
Here's your barometer: in any state where Bushit has an approval rating much above 40 percent. McCain will win, or come close. In the states where Bush is under thirty, they're done. There's your electoral map: fascists and fools will vote republican, and the reincarnation of FDR couldn't change that. But run fifty states; makes the bastards spend money they will have in scant supply by the fall. Spread the fascists thin and then cut 'em to ribbons. I think 56 seats in the senate and 260 in the house sounds about right. Then watch attorney general Edwards start grilling the sons of bitches. Orange jump suits for everybody.
most of the racists changed parties after the civil rights revolution in sixties. thus, the solid waste south. the closet klansmen and women will hurt some, sure, but will be more than offset by energized democrats, a surge in new voters, and especially young voters. Sam Cooke said it: it's been a long time comin', but a change is gonna come. It's at the doorstep. Answer the door. Let it in.
nice revisionist history, soviet style. billary and all the other candidates agreed that those front loaded attempts at primaries would not count. Now, since the shrew will do what she has to do, she wants to count the distorted results as is. Kiss my ass.
I knew she had big family (brewing company, liquor distributor- I'm not sure), but I wonder how substantive her "chair" of the board really is. She seems as deep as a parking lot puddle. At least Nancy Reagan's perma smile was real. Or, maybe she's a shooting star in the business world. I really don't know, and it's not that relevant, except insofar as the fact she bankrolled his political start after he jettisoned wife number one after she waited for him all those years. Helluva guy. Standup fella. Utter jerk.
Obama received secret service protection earlier in the primary process than any candidate in history precisely because there have been so many death threats against him. Laugh it off, bigbutted billarybots, but first Huckabee's NRA convention remark about pointing a gun at Obama, and now Hillary's braindead reference to the RFK assassination show an astounding insensitivity, at best, and a veiled threat, at worst. I think she was trying to invoke RFK to claim his mantle, which is utter horseshit to begin with, but this allegedly brilliant policy wonkette blurts out reference to an event that still haunts those of us who lived through it. I was a senior in college, working on the RFK campaign at the time he was murdered. billary isn't worth a pimple on Robert's ass.
bigotry knows no bounds, state or religious. billary's victory margins in Penn and WV were largely provided by whites with little education and, um, interesting views of black and muslim people, in particular. Many of the toothless fools think Obama is a Muslim. I saw an interview with a voter who said "we just got rid of a Hussein; I ain't votin' for no Hussein." Real bright. Another interview with a whitey who said "I just cain't vote for them other ones. You never know what them other un's 'll do." In private, "other one's" becomes niggers. Feel free to support this core of billary's base. they can all piss off.
what did she do to earn six million? clip coupons? go to the mailbox and get the dividend checks? and did she write off cosmetic surgery as a business expense? The Stepford Wife if there ever was one. Johnny gave her a test drive or twenty while he was still married to wife number one, the one that had waited six years for him to be released. Family values.
