White Women Take the Gloves Off

real clear politics ^

[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. .

First: destroy the enemy's ability to wage war, aka make sure the Liberal Democrat party falls apart -- permanently. Then re-construct the Conservative Republican party. Trying to do those two tasks in the reverse order is guaranteed defeat for conservatives because while we are re-grouping a unified Democrat party would destroy us. Actually it has been effectively doing that. Thus Operation Chaos is essential to make the enemy war on each other rather than on us while we re-group.

There is no way Hillary will take a back seat to Obamamama. Now should Hillary wrest the nomination for Barry, she may allow him the VP slot but I doubt it. Hillary wants to destroy him completly.

"There is no way Hillary will take a back seat to Obamamama."

I call BS. The Clintons are rational. Hillary will be the VP candidate.

Obama is going to be forced to give her the VP slot.

Mark my words.

Bob Beckel just told the Friends that he heard there is a BOMB DROPPING on Michelle tomorrow. The Friends turned white and asked what it might be...was it worse than a college thesis? Bob said—yes. He said that the Repubs were behind it and it was dumb because it meant that Mrs. Clinton would be the nominee. (yeah, sure Bob...blame us)

[AmericaUnited]

My guess is most of them will return to the Democratic fold

You do not understand "scorned women" at all. They never, ever, ever forget.

You series? Beckel was, per usual, shilling for the Dem nominee on the Sunday Fox show saying Obama would whip McCain in the fall.

[Miss Didi]

What was curious about the segment was that the Friends asked Bob who he was supporting. Bob said he couldn’t say, that he promised Fox he wouldn’t. Then he ended by hinting at the Michelle bomb dropping. It’s going to be a long day!

[Wyatt's Torch]

Wow...fascinating times...thanks.

If this is true, then now we know why McCain has turned his back to conservatives.

McCain could easily win this election just by pointing out all the revoulutionaries that are close to Obama. All the race and American haters.. Obama would lose big time.

Isn't it amazing? This guy really is a bumbling speaker, and a pretty bad liar. Where did he get the reputation as a brilliant orator? It reminds me of good actors who are idiots when they speak without a script.

Everything from that race speech in Philly to the press conference on Saturday night proves that Barry is way in over his head.

[kms61]

this is true. In fact, I don’t understand women, period.

[IrishBrigade]

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...

...in politics, you’ve got to piss somebody off...no other option, ever...and the Dems are playing it smart, pissing off a small group of unattractive, arrogant New York women, while keeping their monolithic black vote happy...no brainer, as they say...as for anyone predicting a 45 state blowout for McCain...please stop listening to maha rushie and start looking at the EV landscape...

The Democrat Party survived in a diminished state as a personality cult of Bill and Hillary Clinton. They will shed a still more of themselves as the transition into a personality cult of Barack Obama. But after these two tranformations, the notion that there could be such a thing as an ideological Democrat, who supports the party out of a sense of conviction over policy, is just laughable.

And when Obama is gone, what will be left for them?

It is the soft bigotry of low expectations.

[linn37]

If the republicans had a bomb to drop they would’nt drop it now. Beckel often has trouble with the truth.

[IrishBrigade]

It reminds me of good actors who are idiots when they speak without a script...

...which is precisely what you could say about 99% of politicians...

[ishabibble]

Maybe, but Barry is by far the most lost-looking and sounding candidate I've ever seen. He actually ran away from the press on Saturday night because even he knew that his bumbling and stammering was just awful.

AGAIN, how did this dope get so far?
