Hillary's racial insult
 

"In a fierce counterattack, Ms. Clinton has tried to prick the
ballooning support for Mr. Obama, conceding he is "a truly
inspirational speaker" but adding he has "not done the kind of spade
work" to back up the promises."

Spade work?

Tsk.

Even funnier - Andrew "Bozo" Cuomo:

”It’s not a TV crazed race. Frankly you can’t buy your way into it,”
Cuomo said. “You can’t shuck and jive at a press conference,” he
added."

Shuck and jive?

I still say the "N" word will be out there soon if Obama keeps beating
her.

Nah - but if I were Obama, I'd make a wooden stake and buy a truckload
of garlic. Also if I were Obama, I'd check the bus brakes every time I
got on, not eat anything from sources I couldn't vouch for, avoid
balconies and buy a bomb sniffing dog.

I would also watch the movie "The Omen" for other ways that I might
come to grief.

That's what I would do if I were Obama. :)

Well, he's the one comparing himself to Martin Luther King. When I heard
that, your ideas were the first thing that hit my mind. The Secret Service
must have had a fit when he did that.

Obama is one of the few candidates I have seen in awhile who actually
appears to be intelligent and with definite charisma. I did not read
the speech you are talking about, but from what I have seen, not matter
what happens during this election, he will be around for awhile.

He seems to me to be a politician running for the presidency, who
happens to be black, instead of a black politician running for the
presidency.

Agreed. He's got some weird ideas, but he seems, to me, to be much more
trustworthy than Hillary.

I find it truly unfortunate and a sad commentary on our society that
he'd have to be concerned with that scenario. Not that I don't agree
with you to a degree, but haven't we evolved any?

I had noticed and then thought during his very first election speech,
"hey, this guy is different than the rest". The color of his skin means
nothing to his qualifications, but I'm thinking the majority of the USA
is not quite ready for him. I am more concerned with what I had been
reading relating to his Muslim background than the color of his skin.

Obama's rather loose "connection" to his Muslim background is a hell of
a lot less scary than Huckleberry's connections to fundie Christianity.

I was joking - I don't actually think that.

I do understand your larger point though and you're right.

nothing to his qualifications, but I'm thinking the majority of the USA

I'm concerned about the whole Democratic field actually. The only one
who had what I would consider "experience" was Bill Richardson and now
that he's out, there really isn't anybody I could vote for. I'm very
afraid of a class warfare scenario if either Hillary or Obama is
selected for the national campaign.

On the other hand, there's only one Republican that I consider
Presidential and he doens't have a prayer unfortunetely - well maybe a
prayer, but it doesn't seem likely.

Speaking strictly from the perspective of an observer, he hasn't got a
prayer if he gets the nomination.

This is based on comments of my Democrat friends.

Oddly, neither does Hillary.

Obama may look new, but he has nothing to back it up. Oddly, neither
does Hillary - you would have thought that she would have spent more
time developing cogent and complete arguments for her proposals and
policies, but she spent the time contemplating how she was going to
run and the sense that she was the inevitable choice.

Both of them have squandered their opportunities.

I also think the American electorate is sick and tired of politics and
they are going to be even more sick and tired by the time November
comes around - it's just going to be noise in the background.

Which does not make me hopeful that we're going to make a wise choice
for President if this is the best we can do on either side.
