    If it works Gwool

    why is Hillary not still in the race?

    The whole idea that Obama is a muslim, socialist, arrogant, frency elitist is laced with racist overtones. None of these charges have an ounce of credibility. They are simply trying to paint him as the other and scare enough Americans into not voting for him. Its typical Republican style politics, run to the lowest common denominator and stay there.
