Barack is setting back black people at least 20 years. It truly is sad.

Only LIBERAL black politicans.

Nothing to be sad about.

Conservative blacks will continue to make gains.

I agree. Even a moderate like Ford of Tennessee would have probably done well. I think it’s because of the people Obama has associated himself with as long as his liberal politics. I think the number of people who wouldn’t vote for him because of his race is offset by the number of people who would because of his race.

For example, Michael Steele would be an excellent running mate in 16.

Agreed they are Americans!
