They may as well commence to eviscerating themselves right now.

He can’t win without a majority of the white vote…so think again.

Right now he exists in a Democrat/media bubble.

He has a true ‘race gap’ among white Dems.

Memo to anon:

That certain White people don’t care for Obama isn’t his problem. It’s those certain White people’s problem.

Begging for White acceptance is about as fashionable as powdered wigs.

You didn’t know?

Rikyah,

Don’t be too confident in Obama’s wide spread ‘white adulation.’

Right now he exists in a Democrat/media bubble.

He has a true ‘race gap’ among white Dems.

Not to mention an ‘experience gap,’ and a ‘patriotism gap’(Hanoi Jane just endorsed Obama)and a ‘message gap’ (his narrative does not fit his actions)not yet exploited by Republicans.

The vast majority of this country still resides within the center of the political spectrum and to dismiss legitimate concerns and lines of attack against Obama may play well on this blog, it does not advance Obama’s candidacy.

Overconfidence has killed many a Dem dream.

My thoughts on Steele:

Shelby Steele is going insane.

I don’t mean figuratively.

I mean literally.

Why else would a man turn his back on his previous 15 years’ worths of writings…

to write what he has about Barack Obama?

One has to wonder.

Steele has been grasping for White adulation and approval, well, for forever.

That Barack Obama has achieved it..

By…

And this is the key, folks…

DOING THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT STEELE DID…

is what’s driving Steele insane.

Barack Obama:
1. CHOSE to work with poor Black folk.
2. CHOSE to marry a Black woman, and a VISIBLY Black woman at that.
3. CHOSE to join a Black activist church.
4. CHOSE to anchor himself in the Black community

And, is on the cusp of winning the Democratic Nomination for President of the United States.

Do you understand that Shelby Steele has been trying to turn in his ‘ Black Card’ for the last 20 years…yet, he wouldn’t get paid by his White overlords without it (the Black Card)…thus another reason why he’s going insane.

The problem for Obama is that he cannot move toward the center. The base of his support is very liberal and very hard-line.

His Senate voting record is very far left, and this will make it difficult for him to make any tack to the center without it looking like a purely calculated political move.

‘What does he really believe?’ Is the biggest question surrounding Obama.

The biggest problem black conservatives have with Obama has nothing to do with race…he’s just ‘too liberal.’
