How many more Obama Voters will sit out the Presidential race entirely or vote for John McCain if Hillary steals the nomination from Obama? And, yes, even if she wins Ohio tonight mathematically the only way she could win is by stealing the nomination on the convention floor.

I know personally I won't bother to vote in the General Election if that Shrew commits grand theft on the Democratic Party. Most everyone I know says the same, or says that they will vote for John McCain.

The fact of the matter is that this campaign should've ended after Wisconsin and Hillary should've stepped aside graciously. If that had happened she would've been a lock for 2012 or 2015. Instead she is going to most likely destroy the Party and put a Republican in office for four years

Four years of war, death, destruction, and economic disaster. Blood is on her hands and every hand of every Democratic voter that votes for her from this day onward.

Ohio: The State That Couldn't Vote Straight...

Seriously, I am beginning to wonder if we need to send U.N. Election monitors to Ohio and Florida until they can get it right.

All this proves...

... is that if White, Middle Class Parents bellow long enough and hard enough about whatever affliction their precious seed has they'll be able to extract money out of any drug company or doctor for anything. And also manage to set back medicine hundreds of years.

Maybe he hired a 22 year old Prostitute...

... because she was 22 and a prostitute?

News flash for Dr. Laura. Guys will always try or at least want to have sex with younger, hotter, sluttier versions of whoever they are married to or dating. You can be married to a Saint who cooks, cleans, and loves sex four times a week. But your always going to be looking (maybe not doing and hope to god not paying) at something else.

Men are dogs. I know I am one. Women at aren't the problem, men aren't the problem. The real problem is a system of morals, imposed by people like Dr. Laura, that is contradictory to our biological needs and wants.

So sleeping your way to the top is Feminism?

Because that is all Hillary Clinton represents.

The only reason she is running for President now, and the only reason she is a Senator from New York, is because she she slept with (okay, married, make it sound less trashy) Bill Clinton... Seriously is any Hillary Supporter deluded enough to think she would be running for President if it wasn't for a well-planned, political marriage to Bill?

I resent the notion of sexism being the only reason for Hillary's treatment by the media and her lack of support in the Democratic Primary process; her perceived slights are well-earned and deserved. Frankly she gets too much of a free pass. She's allowed to claim experience from the Clinton years once more when the role she played in the Clinton Administration was largely ceremonial. Her one big policy "accomplishment" was coming up with a boondoggle of a health care proposal that set back the cause of Universal Health Care Fifteen years.

Oh, and when she was a Senator her big accomplishment was voting for a morally bankrupt war that has destroyed one nation and is playing a part in bankrupting ours both morally and fiscally.

I refuse to vote for Hillary Clinton because of her politics, not because of her sex. Politics that trumpet win at all cost, race bait and 3am-bait your way to Victory. And when that doesn't work fall on the ground and cry and play the "Unfair Because I Have a Vagina" Card. And when that doesn't work threaten to blow up your own political party and seize power in a Convention Coup that would cripple any chance at meaningful change for a country and instead condemn us all to economic depression and endless war.

Original article: Obama's speech on race

Historic

That was simply amazing.

He didn't do the easy thing, the Clintonian thing, and throw his Friend and Mentor under a bus and then Patriotically strut about for 15 minutes. Honestly that was what I expected of him. I mean, that's what any politician would do, right?

Instead he used the words of Jeremiah Wright to spring board past this faux controversy and talk about the reality of race and religion in America today. The true genius here is that Senator Obama was able to open up those long standing grievances of both White America and Black America, and discuss them openly, honestly, painfully, and then lead everyone past that to address the hope for something better from everyone.

I'm in awe and I find my faith reaffirmed that an Obama Presidency can be one on par with FDR. (As long as we can get him elected and get Hillary out of the way.)

For a political sex that is pretty hot.
