  • Barrack Hussein and Ann Coulter

    [Read the article: How Hillary Clinton botched the black vote]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    The obvious point, or so I thought, is not whether or not we're all big enough to get past Obama's middle name (and arguably last) but whether or not it was a wise thing to do to put up a guy with two Muslim stepfathers and Hussein and an Osama sounding name in a post 9-11 global terrorist ridden America.

    This mind you in a pivotal election that WILL, make no mistake, be the end of the Democratic party if they lose again and the GOP takes Congress with it : which they will, and appoints 3 SCOTUS.

    Under those circumstances the "loyal opposition" of the left should be doing all they CAN to ENSURE victory, not all they can to ensure a loss raging from intraparty race-baiting and divisiveness to crippling a strong leading candidate who isn't named Hussein Obama.

    I had thought that the left had had enough of George W. Bush and the rightwing. Clearly I was wrong.

  • Those darned racists!

    [Read the article: First look at today's voting]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Well, you know, it's all those hilljacked, red-necked, corn-shucking whites in Indiana that are so racistly running for Hillary.

    Whereas those black, lock-step votin folk out in NOrth Carolina nutin wrong with dat there.

    Hypocrite thy name is Barrack Obama.

  • Spare me. Like Rush Limbaugh would publicly announce his strategy ahead of time

    [Read the article: Polls close in Indiana, no call yet]

    More like reverse psychology that only someone in possession of an iq on par with the average gorilla would believe.

    Obviously the Republicans want Obama who can't win anyone besides racist blacks and latte liberals.

    If the counties in Indiana tonight don't prove that than I don't know WHAT does. Note Obama is pulling closer in solidly Republican counties such as Johnson county, wheras Hillary is smoking him in solidly Dem counties in southern Indiana.

    In the end Obama will get of course Gary, Indianapolis center and Ft Wayne because of the black vote (nothing racists about blacks voting lockstep for their half-black guy, of course).

    The omen is clear: nominate Obama and lose in a landslide. The Dems need independents and rural voters to win and he can't get them beyond any shadow of doubt now.

  • Nauseating Network Bias

    [Read the article: Polls close in Indiana, no call yet]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    So before we even have 1% returns the networks are hailing a huge VICTORY for Obama in North Carolina which he was always projected to win because the only real Dem vote in NC is black.

    Meanwhile Clinton is SMOKING him in Indiana 53%, and killing him in the blue collar vote Dems lost for 30 years, and nothing newsworthy there.

    We'll lose again because for the GOP and their corporate press, it's like taking candy from a baby.

  • Learn your lesson or lose.

    In otherwords we can finally win back the working class if we nominate a candidate who is proven to give them an economy instead of the usual stuff-shirt social liberal.

  • Alecs mom.

    You're a race-baiting troll, whatever signon you use. And ignorant to boot.

    Southern Indiana has always been Democratic. It is not people who will vote for McCain typically, although you'll certainly be testing them if you shove Hussein-Obama who never even showed up for his Senate Committee's one single time down their throat. Blue collar workers are hurting and they want the Clinton's back because as with blacks, they did well under the Clinton Admin.

    They know Obama is a crook and routinely demonstates poor judgement. There's nothing "racist" about noting that. He's half white after all.

  • A real surprise! Blacks are voting lockstep for their half-black guy!

    Real news here!

  • That IS the war, Glenn.

    Wake up. I thought you were supposed to be a smart guy!

    As for Lieberman, I'm glad there is someone left in the party who doesn't pander to the nutjerk left and their nauseating sympathy for Muslims that they certainly don't extend to fellow Americans.

  • If Clinton is the nominee she doesn't NEED him.

    [Read the article: CBS calls Indiana for Clinton]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    The fact is Obama brings her nuthin. Tonight proves it. So Obama brings black voters and some latte liberals, both famously unreliable and fickle in that order.

    Better to focus on rural whites and growing hispanic bases.

    If Obama wins the primary we lose. As demonstrated tonight he can't get past people voting for him because of his skin color which limits him to nationalistic blacks and latte liberals.

    wouldn't do it for me, no way. No way would or should she take it.

    He's the one who can't win important Democratic states, independents and constituents outside of college towns and ghettos.

    Well, we win those every election and still lose. Tonight as with Super Tuesday, Texas, Pennsylvania and Ohio, etc proves that Clinton can get voters a liberal brand like Obama never ever will.

  • Disingenuous Obamateur's wrt Florida and Michgan.

    [Read the article: Race and the race]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Despite the fact that the Obamateur advertised nationally non-stop while disingenuously claiming not to be advertising, he lost Florida by BIG margins.

    As for the disgustingly unDemocratic Obamateur's faux claims that Florida went and did this and deserver to be disenfranchised, another total crockpot of baloney. Florida, controlled by a GOP governor and rightwing legislator DELIBERATELY did that, not the voters, and Howard Dean, the most incompetent DNC chair EVER who went along with it, is the same tired incompetent that LIBERAL's WHO PREDOMINANTLY support Obama shoved Dean down our throats as DNC Chair after the public solidly rejected him as presidential material (and rightfully so).

    It's high time to stop letting incompetent neo-lefties shove losers down our throats before it is TOO LATE. NO DEAN. and NOBAMA (McAin't)

  • yeah, six months of race baiting is real gracious.

    Apparently Barry's grandma never taught him any good manners.

    NOBAMA/McAin't 2008

  • Oh, I see. HRC has been saying this for eight weeks while Obama divided everyone

    [Read the article: In speech, Obama looks to be a uniter]

    But now he's the hero.

    Salon's coverage is so one-sided to this Empty Suit, it's ridiculous.

    He won the black vote in Indiana and North Carolina. Considering there is next to no white Democrats in North Carolina, it wouldn't take much to win 30% of them there - all six of them.

    Meanwhile Hillary swept everything Dems had lost since her husband ran for President and proved she can kill McCain in a general.

    But as usual Nobama getting more of the lockstep black vote is somehow newsworthy.
