It couldn't have had anything to do with he's a flaming liberal empty suite with zero experience running anything other than his perpetual campaign of self promotion.
“And when The One goes down in flames November 4th it is going to be said that he lost because he’s black and that American is racist.”
When are they going to take the measure of the candidate? Will they be as judgmental about Obama as they are about the American public, who they don’t know and conjecture about?
There may well be a sizeable chunk of voters that may vote solely on the basis of the color of a candidates skin.
I am not one of them.
But I am hearing more and more from white, Union member, lifelong democrats that that is precisely what they intend to do, or sit this one out.
Of course, on the other hand, a lot of black people I spoke politics with over the past 18 months are thrilled for the chance to vote for the black man.
The numbers, based solely on my own intuition, should be a wash. 15-17% for NObama because he is black, somewhere between 10-20% against NObama for the same reason.
The only good news in this is that all of those votes are for or from the Dem side.
And before anyone paints me as racist, I was thinking about sitting this one out, because I cared nothing for either candidate, and I am of the mind that the president can do little without the House and Senate. But, I intend to vote for McCain, now, because he has shown the very good sense to choose Sarah Palin (R) AK and because after the Heller decision it will be vital to maintain or increase the number of constitutionalist justices on the Supreme Court.
Yep, the whole country will be defined as racist. And just how can we prove not so, why only by electing a DEMOCRAT/COMMUNIST/SOCIALIST black man as POTUS. Nothing else will do. It means nothing that people of all sexes and races, including black, have been assigned prominent positions in the Bush Presidency and the Republican party. No, those are the WRONG minorities, it just doesn’t count unless it’s a DEMOCRAT/COMMUNIST/SOCIALIST.
