Looking from the outside, it looks like the Democrats are beating

chuckling at the ineptitude. The single biggest thing that is being
demonstrated in primary after primary is that America is still
fundamentally racist, blacks vote for blacks, whites vote for whites,
and there are a lot of white Dems who think that's not the case, enough
that Obama is likely to be running against McCain. Anyone care to
speculate if the US is ready to elect a black president?

Sure, especially a black president with a white mother. Naturally the
US remains filled with ignorant hicks who, even after getting punched
in the face again and again, still claim to be proud of their vote for
Bush. What can you do with such people? They still think republicans
are conservative!
As for the Democrats, they're not doing any damage. It's one of the
kindest battles ever and it will soon be over. The public has the
attention span and memory retention of a Mayfly, so little matters
until the presidential race itself winds down to the final weeks.
Few people know or care to ponder what "Public Servant" once meant.
