Obama's historic run heads south

Did his victory in Iowa and strong showing in New Hampshire really "put to rest the notion that a black candidate can't win in America"?

    So then, let's call it a truce. If Obama's dirty tricks are old news, then Hillary's dirty tricks should also be old news. Kapiche???

    So you won't vote for Hillary because she was pro-war. Hillary has said that she will have the troops home as soon as she is elected. She did say that in the debate.

    So people like you who will not vote for Hillary, should she be nominated, will most certainly ensure the election of John McCain, who is so pro-war that he publicly stated he could keep Iraq occupied for 100 years.

    Mind boggling!!!

    And I promise you, that much as I perceive Barak Obama as a modern day charlatan with his grandiose plan to unite Democrats, republicans and independents - should he win the Democratic nomination, I will be the first in line to cast a vote for him.
