Oh dear god, I HOPE it's only one.

I never really understood the concept of, "My candidate lost, so I'm going to vote for the candidate that is completely opposite in his positions than one that is slightly different but almost exactly the same as my original candidate."

People are stupid. Anyhow who WOULD vote for ANYONE out of spite for someone else only reinforces that we need basic testing in order to get a voter registration card.

Hopefully she is a minority. Im not voting for Obama, but he needs stupid people to vote for him too.

From what I've seen on TV, the average Hillary supporter is a hateful middle aged woman with that annoying whiny high pitched voice that makes you want to yell "SHUT THE HELL UP ALREADY"

Reminds me of an exchange Adlai Stevenson supposedly had with an admirer.

Supporter: "Mr. Stevenson, you have the support of every thinking voter in America."
A. Stevenson: "Well that?s great, but what I need is a majority."

Saw that on the Daily Show last night. Pure lunacy.

As mentioned above, going with the candidate that is the polar opposite versus one that differs slightly from your candidate's position is pretty stupid. Hell, don't vote at all, but voting against what you believe in just to make a point is pretty stupid.

The "brown stuff" is about to hit the fan.
The press has been digging Hillary's grave since iOwa.
Once she is out, the press (to keep the tabloid conflict going) will keep
asking why Hillary was pushed out, as if they had nothing to do with it.
And just stir up more Harriet Christian's.

Face it, Hillary could either end her run "clean" or "dirty".
I think they have already chosen dirty.

Bill Clinton stating "this day could be my last political involvement"
tells me he has no plans going out on the stump for Obama.

Clinton's do not lose easily, and they already look to 2012.
That means, McCain must be in for their tactic to work.

How Hillary reacts in the next few weeks, months will be the clue.
I'd bet she turns a cold shoulder to stumping for Obama.
She may display a half hearted attempt for a few days, but that?s it.

And you can just feel how much Obama dislikes Clinton.
Obama will never pick Hillary as VP, and looking to 2012,
Hillary would never accept.

But despite all this, McCain and the republicans have absolutely no chance anyway.
Ending the war is the #1 issue. McCain, like Bush, will never face that.

If you would like to meet her cohorts, head over here.

But I believe that these folks will be in the a very small minority come November as their vocal presence will be completely undermined by Clinton's eventual endorsement of him.

You're dead wrong. The war is NOT the #1 issue. The slowing economy, gasoline/heating oil prices, home foreclosures, and healthcare concerns all trump the war. Economics and wallet issues are always #1.

Even then, McCain isn't going to win over independent/undecided voters by staying the course that Bush laid out. In a recent poll, it was determined that McCain's association to Bush bothers more voters than Obama's association to Rev Wright.

McCain loses on those issues too. Unless he tries to distance himself from GWB. But McCain has already come out and will support extending GWBs tax cuts. McCain is quite simply more of the same domestic policy, and more of the same foreign policy as GWB. And you see where that has taken us...

Did you see all the church goers hysterically laughing and clapping and cheering on the pathetic display Fra. Pfleger put on at Obama's church? How many Obama supporters are like them, thinking Hillary sat and reflected that she was entitled to the presidency because she was white?

There's assholes and idiots of every stripe that support every candidate. Ya just have to ignore them.

Yeah, but they were just laughin' it up. Black folks would STILL vote for Hillary if she won the nomination. No way in hell would they vote for McCain.

If you remember, Hillary had something like 80-90% of the black vote until Obama won Iowa. Then blacks folks realized, "Hey, he could possibly win", then the tide started shifting. After Super Tuesday, the rest of the black vote jumped ship from Hillary to Obama.

Black folks might be fair weather fans, but they won't step over to the "Dark Side".

Are you saying the war isn't playing a huge part in all this? We are paying less taxes now than before Bush, yet the gov't is spending more. What does that mean? Huge deficits which equate to 'free' money being dumped into the world economy.

Do you think a trillion dollars pulled out of nowhere isn't a major contributor to the falling dollar value (inflation)?

This forum consists of higher educated, college educated younger generation which can see right through the lies, etc. Like that women, older generation, they grew up disliking black people and all for women rights. Current new generation, doesn't think about much about women rights and even african-american rights, and are for people who look/sound right to them. That person like in the video, she will never change her mind and she hates obama because he's black. And the fact is that Obama is half black/half white, those people don't want to hear it, as long as the guy's skin color is dark, they don't care.

The truth is, those people think that 100% of all blacks are ghetto, haters, etc... it is true that the worst neighborhoods in US are where blacks live, however there are those few black people who don't attach them selves to that and come out, just like Obama did.

I'll give you an example. I used to have a black friend in College. This guy came from Harlem, NYC. His family poor couldn't support his tuition. He had to work almost 4 jobs to just to buy books, and support him self. He always studied and was commited, and GPA was almost 4.0, like 3.8~ or so. He had some negative traits, like he would run around halls and scream and bang every door, and make monkey sounds... (prob when he was drunk), but at the end he would study, and study and make it...

Now at the same time I had another black friend, he barely made it and finally changed school, he couldn't make it. He wasn't stupid or anything, he was just lazy. All he cared is about his music. He blasted rap all over the building, with his subwoofers and speakers he kept buying.. This guy spent all his money on sound system and speakers instead of books...

Obama will have his work cut out for him with Hispanics too, since many of them don't like blacks either given they associate them with crime, especially in the inner cities.

I agree with your observation of older generations vs. ours which is mostly color & gender blind the way it should be. However, the older generations vote in much greater numbers and with much greater consistency so "old" stereotypes are very much alive unfortunately.

I actually went to HS with more than 50% Hispanics, but mostly girls.. :), so I didn't have deal with a lot of guys, but the girls gave me their attitude ... hehe, but it was fine. I had other friends. I don't associate hispanics with crime actually, I associate them with lazyness and just don't care about education. The HS I went, the avergage student grades were not good at all...

WTF?

PS it's laziness.

I'm sorry but its a fact, I went to a hispanic school, the teachers were good and couldn't do anything, some even wanted to cry at the end.. that they try so hard but the students just don't their homework or study.... And most students just sat on the back.. I was one of the few who sat in the front. I am not saying all of them, but a lot...

What about white trash blue collar working Americans? Can't we slime them too, the stupid fucks? This would be a great country if we could just get rid of the Mexicans, old women, and the working class. And geez with half the Democratic party being insane enough to support Hillary, who wants to listen to the other half who could be only marginally better.

when hillary voters are blasted as retarded and racist across the board, it's a little hard not to start taking things personally.
