So long, white boy

Could 2008 be the year that Democrats finally admit an old sweetheart is never coming back, and stop pandering to the white male voter?

    Painfully Dumb

    What a stupid article. We should all pander to common sense, and realize that there are a lot of white guys who have common sense along with black guys, asian guys hispanic guys and a boat load of women of all types.

    The writer is clearly not color blind. There is a political party that is having a rough go of it lately, they are a bit lost too - maybe they need some help Tom.
