Don't forget the racial attacks Clinton made concerning Obama about South Carolina. There is reason to bitter about this.

Well that's only because he's a Democrat. Frankly I'd rather campaign for Mccain. He's the better candidate, but he's goins to shoot taxes up even more, so... Eh.

You have a vivid imagination and you can type, too!

Congratulations. Now why don't you do something about your utter and complete ignorance?

July 15, 2008 - Women, Blacks Give Obama 9 - Point Lead Over McCain, Quinnipiac University National Poll Finds

With commanding leads among women and young voters and near unanimous support from black voters, Illinois Sen. Barack Obama has a 50 - 41 percent lead over Arizona Sen. John McCain, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll of likely voters released today.

Independent voters split 44 - 44 percent, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University poll finds....

But black voters back Sen. Obama 94 - 1 percent, while women support him 55 - 36 percent. Obama leads 63 - 31 percent among voters 18 to 34 years old and 48 - 44 percent among voters 35 to 54, while voters over 55 split with 45 percent for McCain and 44 percent for Obama.

The Democrat gets 44 percent to the Republican's 47 percent in red states, which went Republican by more than 5 percent in 2004, and leads 50 - 39 percent in purple or swing states...."
http://www.quinnipiac.edu/x1284.xml...

"women support him [Obama] 55 - 36 percent"

And that's not likely to change given McCain's recent vote against equal pay for women, his recent flip flop on the GOP's Rapist Bill of Rights(overturn R v.W, no exceptions for rape, incest or life of the mother), and his shameful record on domestic violence and children's issues. This won't help either:

White House Defines Contraception as Abortion
http://www.womensenews.org/article.cfm/dyn/ai...

And in response to the inevitable whining about "racist" black people, check out McCain's racist voting record:

After Voting For Education Cuts, McCain Touts Education Reform At NAACP
http://thinkprogress.org/2008/07/16/mccain-vo...

I will always be amazed that the GOP propaganda machine attempts to label the self made man who worked his way up from nothing as "elitist" while trying to sell the man who has never held a job outside of government and dumped his first wife and family to marry a rich heiress with political connections as a "common man".

The American people are to smart to fall for it this time. Not this time. Not this year.

Apparently the Clintons have decided to earn back their reputations.

Now that the Clintons have belatedly accepted that race and gender baiting will not pressure Obama to make her VP, they have decided to play ball.

Your "Crazies for Hillary" movement will dissolve. Allow me to extend my sympathies on the loss of your delusions.

Obama won the vote. And he has the overwhelming support of women.

Obama used lies and underhanded tactics throughout the primaries to discredit Hillary. He used his internet blogging team to attack her from every angle while playing the "nice" guy. He's a snake and does not deserve Bill Clinton's support.

However, if he did give a speech at the convention he should take the opportunity to bash Obama for his dirty campaign.

What lies? What underhanded tactics? Obama refused to return the Clinton smears:

Clinton "Kitchen Sink" strategy and Dirty Tricks
http://www.youtube.com/watch...

The Clintons have decided to seek redemption for their reputations in Democratic circles by returning to the fold and contributing. Good for them.

The GOP may be hoping that Americans are stupid enough to forget recent political history. They will lose. Only their supporters are dumb enough to believe these lies.

Obama doesn't have a "blogging" team. The GOP has an online echo chamber which is noted for it's hysteria, lies and general stupidity (i.e. Human Events, World Nut Daily, NRO, etc.)

The main difference is independence for Left Blogistan and the Left's traditional reliance on proven fact.

1) I've seen your posts. Well done! Keep up the good work and never hesitate to speak up.

2) The less time and energy you give the racist fools on these boards the better. Reasoning with them is casting your pearls before swine. I smack them some myself, but they really aren't worth the effort or energy.

3) The twerp you replied to here has used abusive language toward women about half a dozen times today on assorted threads. Just shows he's not much of a man. Deep in his heart he knows it too.

Thank you strutke! I enjoy the intellectual challenge.

jj has been insulting me for months. Non response seems to bring more viscous attacks. I really don't expect to influence the racists on these boards. I'm posting for the lurkers and the sane people while working on my writing skills. I'm also disrupting the echo chamber effect which reinforces propaganda.
