Mary Mitchell is an idiot. This is what Obama is going to be doing to Illinois for the next six years. Nobody cares a bit about what he believes. It's his color and his pleasant facial features that got him elected. And that Harvard degree.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

It was the image of the coffee complexioned, smartly dressed Michelle Obama on the platform, at his side waving at the crowd.

I don't care if she is married to a DemocRAT. Michelle Obama is a hottie! She certainly got my attention last night. I look forward to seeing more of her. I'll just turn down the sound on the telly.

This author is barking mad. Stark raving nutz. Gone fishing. Bats in her belfry.

Is she a regular columnist, or some random nutjob they pulled off the street?

[HenryLeeII]

Umm, can anyone of these lefty idiots stop slobbering on this guy's shoes long enough to tell me one thing he's done?

Our socialist rag, the Charleston Gazette, had an editorial this morning by Cynthia Tucker, praising Obama.

Since their hateful anti-Bush screed the past four years failed to influence anyone, they are now working on the next presidential election. Don't they want to see how the guy performs before they nominate him for president?

"That this Harvard-educated biracial man, who was raised in a white family, chose a brown sugar sister to marry gave black women all over this country a boost."

Can you imagine the *firestorm* stink that'd have been raised had a white person said that?

"The Obamas are now the African-American First Family."

HA!!
Yea maybe they are.

Still.

...Bill Clinton was the 1st black president. :o)

[Mike Bates]

Mary Mitchell is an idiot.

I think you're overestimating her intelligence.

As only the third African American to go to the U.S. Senate since Reconstruction,

The liberals' incessant black counting is so tiresome. Do you ever get the feeling that in 50 years they'll still be saying Mr. So and So, the 79th black to be elected ____(fill in the blank)?

[DMZFrank]

This hack is blinded by racial identity politics.

[Wolfstar]

I'm already sick of Obama, and he was just elected yesterday. Move over, John McCain, the media has a new darling.

[GNDan]

Obama just another step and fetch it liberal Democrat.

[mrsmith]

He'll prove an unliked and ineffectual Senator.

[Clump]

His name is only one letter away from being Osama. His positions are left of Kerry, and we must expose him and attack him early and often. We must make sure this guy never goes higher than senator. He is frightening.

Let Obama's shining light lead the way for us all

The only "light" coming from Obama is self generated methane that has reached it's combustion temp.

[Rollee]

Well, lets see. In Illinois, we have Dick Durbinladen, Babama Osama, Rod Bagoshi* and King Richie the Gunless. It's definitely time for a change here. We need to do something now for 2006 and 2008.
