White Women Take the Gloves Off
real clear politics ^

Posted on 06/02/2008 10:42:20 PM PDT by wsjreader

The woman who shouted "McCain in '08" at the Democratic rules committee was speaking for a multitude. After mounting for months, female anger over the choreographed dumping on Hillary Clinton and her supporters has exploded -- and party loyalty be damned. That the women are beginning to have a good time is an especially bad sign for Barack Obama's campaign. "Obama will NOT get my vote, and one step more," Ellen Thorp, a 59-year-old flight attendant from Houston told me. "I have been a Democrat for 38 years. As of today, I am registering as an independent. Yee Haw!" A new Pew Research Center poll points to a surging tide of fury, especially among white women. As recently as April, this group preferred Obama over the presumptive Republican John McCain by three percentage points. By May, McCain enjoyed an eight-point lead among white women. .

Great news for McCain.. Barry must be crying. This would be the perfect time for John to pick a woman VP. So when Obama takes Richardson the woman go crazy

Oh how I wish Hillary would take both states in a great big landslide vote. LOL That would be soooo funny. Imagine egg running all down the face's of pelosi and reed and dean and they'd be stuck with their hand picked illegitimate candidate Obama while Hillary raked in all the votes LOL

chaos

I don’t like Mccain but I will vote for him over any dem. Not that he’s all that different then a dem. But their are two reasons for me that set him apart from them. First he’s pro life and that means everything to me.

Second, I like security. With Mccain at the helm, I know he will do his level best to keep this country safe, even though I don’t like him.

This anger will by and large evaporate when Obama does (what I think he will do) and puts her on the ticket.

It will literally vanish overnight.

I think this was the big gamble with Rush's Operation Chaos. Let us just hope Obama chooses not Hillary, but someone else and someone who will really piss off the Angry White (Lesbian-type Overentitled Pushy, Nobody In Their Right MIND Would Want Them For Wives or Girlfriends) Women of America.

I think his better political instincts dictate that he cuts the deal.

That is a no brainer. Where it gets difficult is with Hillary. Would she EVER settle for second fiddle, and be so close to the top action to just smell it for eight (maybe four) years.

Only a suicidal fool would allow Hillary in a position where their death puts her in the White House.

These women are delusional as far as claimed differences in the intelligence and qualifications of the two contenders in the Democrat Party. Aside from being in the Senate one term less than the Wicked Witch of the East, Urkel has about the same mediocre record of legislative accomplishment that she has. He HAS voted to her left, but Hillary as a centrist is merely Lenin doing ‘two steps forward, one step back’. They're both Marxists.

As for intellect, I've never seen ANY indication Hillary Clinton is particularly intelligent. Educated? Yes. A grind? Most likely. But never confuse intelligence with education.

As to her accomplishments, they arise from sleeping with a guy on the way up, and at the top of his game. And they are FEW in number. Janet Reno. Donna Shalayla come to mind. Clinton Care was hardly a success. Her biggest accomplishments? The ‘War Room’ and ‘so-called ‘Bimbo’ control.

When push gets to shove, this is all about Democrat ‘Identity politics’. And her group of victims isn't happy that his group of victims came out ahead.

The nature of the democrats today elevated this
flop of a man in the presidential race.

The MSM has given the empty suit Obama a pass on his racist marxist church and “religion”

Real Christians need not apply.

True, but I’m hoping McCain holds some appeal for the unhappy Dems with his “maverick” image and his (unpleasant) stands on some issues (immigration, Guantanamo. . .)

I think Obama is demonstrably worse than Kerry or Gore.

I guess he hasn’t held a press conference to accuse our soldiers of despicable crimes.

Can't blame them. Obumster is nothing more than an empty suit slick dick, foisted upon the Democrap Party by its aristocracy ( Kennedys and the Shrivers), in order to satisfy their Utopian ponderings about poetic historic justice ( America's first black president ...stars in their idiot eyes.).

Obumster as president would be an unmitigated disaster.And white women who are democraps are smart enough to know it, but they also have their alternative femino-nazi Utopian wet dreams. Hillery would bean equal disaster as president, but in a different way.

So its a fight to the death bbetween two competing Utoppias, the culture war has divided the Dems, and with any luck, it will invest the Denver convention and result in riots in the streets.

Now as conservatives we have had to swallow our pride and wait for another day to have a truly conservative president who operates from a foundation of traditional American values.

John McCain better get on his gamme, or we will indeed have Obama as president. McPain needs to destroy Obama in this campaign. Perhaps the best approach Mccain can have is to inflict the political death on Obama from a thousand small cuts, rather than decapitation. Thats already started,

But in the end Johno will need to take the gloves off and duke it out with the slickster Obumster. Johno may not have the stamina necessary, so his choice of a running mate is crucial.

McPain needs someone like Tom DeLay, the scourge of the Democrats, as a running mate.

So were kerry and Gore. Democrats are incredible stupid and are of the herd mentality.

So were Bush I and Dole. Republicans are incredibly stupid and are of the herd mentality. Unfortunately it works for us too.
