Out of desperation, the Clinton campaign is now stooping to extreme lows by having surrogate Geraldine Ferraro in the media making racist statements against Barack Obama. Also, it is a fact that even if Hillary wins Pennsylvania there is absolutely no way she can get enough delegate votes to defeat Obama. And her BIG ploy now is to have a ‘re-do’ in Michigan and Florida, despite the fact that this would be a changing of the rules in the middle of the game which should not be allowed.Her tactics will end up extremely detrimental to the Democratic Party. It is time to let the DNC know that if Hillary wins through ANY methods deemed trickery (which is the only way she can win) WE….THE PEOPLE WILL NOT SUPPORT HER IN THE GENERAL ELECTION ! National radio talk show host Warren Ballentine is asking EVERYONE to call the DNC at 202-863-8000 to let them know ‘We Will Not Support A Cheater !’We need 50 thousand people to FLOOD THE PHONES !!! So Call Today !!!! Say It Loud….WE WILL NOT SUPPORT A CHEATER !!! Tell everyone you know to make this call. The Time Is NOW….To Take Back OUR America !!!!

PASS THIS ON !!!

NOTE: Don’t Be Fooled….OBAMA WON TEXAS !!!!

And I LOOOOOVE this blog!

All true. But blacklisting underlings is a couple of steps beyond calling it out. You don’t know who on that list made these decisions. My guess is, nor do most of the people on that list.

The campaign they have participated in should (and will) fail on its own demerits. Obama has taken the high road, and the rewards of that path should be undiluted by stuff like blacklisting. The contrast between him and Clinton is now screamingly stark.

I love this blog!

Maybe it’s time for new blood after all. Those associated with Hillary’s campaign are not the only fish in the sea. I’m sure there are other Democrats who would help lead the country and help unite the country if they were only given a chance to step up.

What Hillary’s campaign is doing is going beyond ‘business, never personal’. This is not just politics, anymore (if it ever was, for them — see, again Geraldine’s quote about ‘they’re trying to hurt you through me’). The real cult is in the Hillary campaign. Outreach is possible, but pretending everything is okie doke and never happened ain’t the way.

I think it should be extended to Hillary supporters as well. That’s a long *ss list you provide, though, and I don’t know how many of them are actually elected and how many are appointed. How would censure work, since Hillary is not only not doing it, but is encouraging the madness done in her name against Obama and against the Democratic Party and against the American people throught this bs?

by the last couple minutes, KO sounds like a friend who’s desperately trying to intervene with a heroin addict before they OD. he’s giving Clinton every benefit of the doubt that she personally is not responsible for the ugliness……………. but he’s still damning her campaign.

And he’s doing it even knowing that he may be made to pay for saying it. He seems to be expecting something to come down on him for saying what he’s saying, but he’s going to say it anyway.

You gotta watch it. He really makes the case that Hillary is f*cking up and that it’s unnerving how her campaign is handling .. well, EVERYTHING.

Me personally, I strongly believe Hillary Clinton has a mental issue. It’s a mental issue shared by the women of her campaign (see Geraldine Ferraro’s ‘you go sister they’re trying to hurt you through me’ comment!)

Hillary needs professional help.

I canvassed, phone banked, and donated to the limit of my means for Obama in California.

I have one question to ask you: Would Dr. King want a blacklist? Would he approve the public listing and ostracization of every person, black, white, asian and latino, on that list?

I share your outrage. But this step you are taking is the one that takes a movement for hope and for good and cleanly removes its soul. I have no right to silence you and absolutely no power to stop you. I am asking you please not to take it in this direction.

Why do you have to be an “anon” to make your statements?
The only advantage that he has is that his African father earned his own doctorate from Harvard so obviously superior intelligence is in his genes.

Only someone who is not black and has never taken the time to read and understand ANY African American history/accomplishments would make the statements that you all have made. But you know what they say, “ignorance is bliss”.

If someone is brilliant and has a good philosophy and a plan i.e. policy, what is the litmus test of an “appropriate” resume.
The Senator has a doctorate in constitutional law and has an understanding and appreciation for the constitution on the level of a Supreme Court judge. He has a history of over two decades of practicing law, public service and teaching the constitution. To me those are pretty important qualification to have in a time where the constitution is being ignored daily.

If you cannot get sh*t done, what good would a 40 year resume do for anyone?

What IS important is whether or not the person in charge can get people to work with them on getting important legislations through the house and the senate. And just which candidate is more capable of making that happen?

Kiss My @SS!

Keith Olberman was counting on your reaction. He’s polishing his halo as we speak and getting pats on the back from all his elite white friends. Blacks are soooo lucky he came to their rescue.

He is a self-aggrandizing a** who is looking to make himself the story. His mock outrage is transparent and condescending.

What’s eating me is that serious discussion and debate on the benefits and pitfalls of the ‘double-edged sword’ of Affirmative Action would do far more to advance a discussion of racial equality than the self-serving rant of a second-rate talking head.

I watched and my mouth dropped!!

Dan Abrams is a tool. His attempt at being “provacative” is lame at best. I applaud the sista for not putting up with it and for Rachel for calling Pat out. Frankly he’s been getitng on my nerves all day with his “commentary” on Ferraro.

In addition, it’s highly unlikely that Obama’s trademark statements about coming together as a nation – the ones that drive the crowds wild — would have much resonance coming from him were it were not for his race. Obama is a left-wing Democrat with no special claim as a healer of “what divides us as a nation” other than his racial status. (For more about how that status, and Obama’s very clever use of it, has turned Obama into an icon, please consult Shelby Steele and his book on Obama, A Bound Man). The country is, indeed, “caught up in the concept.”

Obama has understood from the beginning the opportunities that his race confers on him. Freshly minted lawyers don’t usually write their autobiography, even if they have been president of the Harvard Law Review. But as the first African-American to hold that post, Obama was in a position to publish an autobiography – one in which he talks incessantly about his race. Of course, Obama had to obtain the top law review position and then crank out a quality autobiography. But there’s a new Harvard Law Review president every year and most of them can write. Without the racial piece, no one would have been interested in Obama’s autobiography, no matter how well-executed, at that early point in his life.

Similarly, Obama could not have risen to the top of the Democratic heap this year without his strong intellect and considerable political and oratorical skills. But without the racial piece, Obama is just another smart, talented, flashy politician who over-promises. How many white politicians have ever come so far on this thin a resume? I can’t think of any.

Obama obviously is not to blame for gaining advantage due to his race. Clinton, after all, almost certainly got as far as she did because she was marred to a popular former president. Few politicians make it all the way to the top without some sort of advantage they didn’t earn. It just seems unfortunate that, in Obama’s case, there’s a stiff penalty for pointing to his unearned advantage.

You are not a unique snowflake, and sometimes someone really is more qualified than you.
