It Won't Be "White Racism"
[Read the article: How much will white racism hurt Obama?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]That will lose Obama and the Democrats the November election, but the divisive race-baiting politics of the Obama campaign toward Clinton and her supporters.
The nasty and venomous arrogance towards Clinton, the lies that have been told about her and petty, hateful and toxic attacks by Obama supporters on Clinton supporters will divide this election like no other.
In addition, the sheer lack of restraint and of journalistic ethics of the MSM, including Salon, to even begin to report on this election either responsibly or fairly with even a sense of decency.
The willful ignorance to report on the real Clinton as person and as a human being and as a leader and with respect, the nauseating vilification of her, the willful ignorance to report on the sheer scope of her support and therefore disenfranchisement her supporters and their concerns, considering they equal at least a substantial quarter of the electorate will leave an indelible mark when those voters, feeling marginalized, vote Republican or do not vote at all November.
The sexism that has invaded and wrecked this campaign is a travesty that will leave its legacy for years to come. The women who have fought so hard for, not just feminism, but progressive politics and been shoved out in the cold by the blind and hateful treatment by Obama supporters will NOT forget and not forgive all that easily.
And you all can pretend all that means nothing, put your head in sand like good Obama Ostriches babbling your book and verse that those people don't count, but the votes of those Clinton supporters WILL mean something come November. And you better damn well hope that there is enough of them willing to "hold their nose and vote" Democrat, because if there isn't, there WILL be a price to pay for all this and it will be on the backs of the American people.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]Considering the way RFK remark was wilfully misinterpreted is a prime example of the bullshit "baiting" and totally represents the travesty of this presidential campaign at it's worst.
Considering Obama's "being born" because of the march in Selma, Alabama was a downright lie, not an exaggeration as in Clinton's, hey, let's not even start with the not so truthful statements of Obama...
Considering your "vagina" remark is another prime example of the misogynistic crap that's been thrown by assholes like you as some sort of "argument" against voting for a woman...
And are we nasty or what?
I believe you prove my points.
So, hey! My pleasure! Anytime!
Oh, and by the way, you might not need Clinton in the White House but you do need us...all those white feminists. Sorry, there is no White House without us. And you can take that to bank.

Who'd of Thought

[Read more letters about this article: Here]Michelle Obama is the next Hillary Clinton. Oh, my god, a "scary woman" as the first lady.
Why, except for their skin color, they're almost identical.
Now that's a hoot!

[Read more letters about this article: Here]Feckless? Oh, please. The feckless nature of Obama supporters to not realize the cost of their divisiveness is beyond irresponsibility. That "fecklessness" will cost the election in November. Play your little game with someone else.

[Read the article: How much will white racism hurt Obama?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Oh, that's right! All of us white feminists that support Clinton are somehow McCain trolls.
Ah, yes, Obama supporter tactics in argument #3 (of maybe 5 total) in the Obama supporter argument tactic book, "if you can't insult them enough, or call them enough names to prove your point, say that their really trolls for the other side!" Yes, very impressive argument.
Sorry, squalorholla, you wouldn't know a feminist if you saw one because you're not, never have been and never will be. Because that you would consider not calling yourself one because of all this, tells me you don't know even know what it means. So, please, by all means DO NOT call yourself one. You don't deserve it.

OH MY GOD!
[Read the article: How much will white racism hurt Obama?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]This is so hysterical.
I just realized I'm dealing with complete idiots.
That's okay, you all go back to playing in your little Obama pretend land with your little Obama pretend dolls and your little Obama pretend election and your little Obama pretend presidency. I believe it's called "play therapy". Come November, if you don't get what this is all about and the part that your hatred and animosity is playing in it, you're all going to need it. Because that's all we're going to get. A fantasy.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]Don't bother mjwycha. No one here is going to really get this (except for a few of us). The low brow "elitism" here winces the imagination.
Although, I think you are correct. But they'll damn you because I said that.
