Obama and black voters will never accept such "sophistry." They will blame the result on racism since most of the super delegates are white.

I have always wanted Hillary to be the Dim nominee. However, I never expected her to gain the nomination because of her negatives with many Rats. I would have bet on Obama to gain the nomination, until the "Reverend" Wright issue broke. And even as Juan Williams observed this morning on FNS, Barry skirted the the basic issue in a speech that would have made Joe Isuzu proud.

Now, America's very own incarnation of Lucrezia Borgia may be back in the game. I am pleased with this latest development. The Dims currently have two potential candidates with serious flaws that are visible to the great mass of the electorate-- who rely on a TV playing in the background during dinner to provide political insight.

As you suggest, a Hilary nomination could split the Dims quite nicely. Sadly, for me, this would still be a bittersweet prospect given the GOP's choice of a nominee who's not worth a pint of spit.

oh I have no doubt that the blacks will take it personally but I still say it won't matter since they have no where to go. The translation will be that only half of them vote instead of 95%.

This isn't just about this election. And what will the Black Caucus do? If Hillary "steals" the nomination, it will have a long term impact on the Dem party.

I call you/me a victim of Liberal brainwashing in the schools and media. The only way to overcome it is to read unwashed books or now the new media. We didn’t realize the bilge we were being fed and ate it by the plate full.

We didn’t know about the communist roots and funding that most of the liberal organizations had. We were just trying to make a difference which led to most of todays problems.

Your daughter sounds like she has found the right track and has thrown off the shackles of atheism. Keep praying for her and your grandaughter.

Pray for W and Our Freedom Fighters

For those who missed it, here’s the heartwarming
saga of the Iraq dog, Nubs, and his master,
Maj. Brian Dennis, and what it took for Nubs
to come to the USA. They were meant to be
together, for sure.

And a Happy, Blessed Easter to you, as well. Just got back from a very cooooold and very lovely sunrise service, followed by pancake breakfast. Will spend the rest of the morning getting warm again.

I was a lefty in my 1970s youth too but think of how different that was then.

Being a lefty back then for me was pot, long hair, stoned idealism and partying....maybe a bit greener, pro-civil rights but now being a liberal is so full of crazy crap we never envisioned:

50 million aborted babies...something undreamed of in 1972...a big one for me.

the rise of homosexuality

the fanaticism of the women's movement

gun control beyond restricting machine guns...

no new oil drilling or refineries.

passivity in the face of militant Islam

race lunacy and all the horrible crap that has come forth from the Great Society.....we did not know yet what fruits that would bear.

rampant anti-Christian values

rampant anti-family sentiments

support of illegitimacy

universal healthcare....unheard of.

Political correctness and the demonization of Western culture and the vicious onslaught towards equating my own Southern heritage with Nazis.

It goes on and on. Being a liberal is much different now than when we were kids.......much much different.

Average liberal today is worse than a Yippie was almost.

I think there may be a larger reverberation in the national consciousness as well.

Mainstream America basically puts up with a lot of what it considers to be silly and unfair diversity stuff because they don’t want to be small-minded, and they want to be charitable to the obviously at least culturally struggling black community.

But here’s a window in to the grievance-perpetuating black madrassa community that they can see as having philosophically drawn in and ruined a bright, educated bi-racial candidate they’d like to have been able to elect.

As with the fight against radical Islam, I think people are going to ask whether as a country we can afford to overlook the BLT sort of teachings as antithetical to the racial healing that they want—and have been generously funding.

Couldn’t agree more about Ms. Noonan being full of herself.
It does seem she practices the very soft speaking voice which I think she thinks comes across as so very thoughtful and deep. It bores me and she sounds like she should be writing romance novels. On another topic, isn’t it curious that since Rev.Wrights comments we haven’t heard one word from Michelle Obama? I bet she is furious about the negative reaction to them.

You must have been among the very prescient few. Most people, myself included, believed that Hillary was a sure bet to be the nominee. I never expected that the junior senator from Illinois, the token black candidate, would pose a challenge to the Clinton machine.

How about another take and here I could be veering on fantasy or wishful thinking territory they in a way it could be even worse for McCain.

Neither get the nomination, Obama pulls out due to being thought of as non electable due to Rev Wright etc. He would say he has learned his lesson on who you assort/support etc and is will say he is much more humble for the experience and will be back in a few years a wiser and older man.

Hilliary pulls out due to well lots of reason even could be ill health of husband etc.

This then leaves the dem to nominate someone else though no one actually springs to mind so most likely scenario is Obama withdrawing still to me.

You know they are much better totally stale?

This is because they're designed to outlast the nuclear winter.

Hunter and Thompson could not sell their vision and record to very many people. Romney almost did it. “i believe” that Romney is more conservative in his core values than what he had to sell to the Massachusetts voters. I also believe that he would have surrounded himself with good people in the White House, and would have represented the US very well on the world stage.

I wonder if the Republican party had not gone the route of open primaries in so many states, what the results would have been.

'right wing blamed 9/11 on gays and feminists??? '

I think Falwell, or another televangelist, did make a statement similar to that.

Is Richardson in a Mookie Al Sadr look-a-like contest?

He's trying to look like Pancho Villa in order to lure the Hispanic vote.

Obama not the post-racial candidate he seemed to be.

@@@@@

On graduation from Harvard, his resume could have taken him anywhere in major law firms in the US. He CHOSE a career in street level politics in black communities in Chicago. Everyone is supposed to choose their own career path. Let us remind everyone that a law career in ‘civil rights’ and ‘discrimination’ cases is what he chose. So, yes, he has been accepting the message of Rev Wright as “necessary words” all these years.

Wow. I respect both of your assessment of Noonan this morning. and I did kind of see it out of the corner of my eye.

I always had such respect for her. And yet...there’s something about Peggy N that would not surprise me if she started to be charmed by Obama.

See, political elites, they have no common sense. Cause common sense would tell you that if nothing else Obama exposed his young precious daughters to that Revrun Wright and that’s enough to question this guy’s fatherhood talents, not to mention his ascendency to the presidency.

We understand this stuff out here in la-la land where we carry this country on our backs whilst raising the citizens and solders of tomorrow.

By way...I put on a pair of cropped pants from last year.

So okay I had to lay down on the bed to zip them and then I had to say three Hail Marys to get the button to reach the buttonhole.

I told myself that these pants tended to shrink when washed so I should not give up with the button.

Finally, right before I almost passed out from the struggle, I got them zipped and buttoned.

Heh.

Now I got to pee. What do I do?
