Apparently Obama does better than Hillary amongst educated whites with greater than $50,000/year income.  Who'da thunk?  Fargin idiots.

Pretty much urban social liberals voting with emotion and not their intellect. You would think that with all that education a few would have set emotion aside and took a look at his real record in Illinois; his rise to power as an insider in the corrupt cook county/Illinois Democratic machine (his established mentors and endorsements and support local party machine hacks like Daley, Stroger and Tillman); all the sources of the soft money he is receiving from the usual industries and a few unusual ones even (Wall Street);his endorsement by consummate insider Ted Kennedy and established party leaders like Soros and the Hollywood set. Yeah, a real outsider ready to change politics and reunite America

But then, Obama is an elitist and it's natural that the urbanized educated progressive Democrats (not Republicans, remember) would share his elite vision for how the big government can re-engineer and control a "proper" society along the lines of New York City, Mass., or Chicago. Equally not surprising that more rural democrats who think, for example, that something like Sex and the City is a bunch of silly NY BS with no connection to their lives would possibly not find Barry the best candidate from the party :) Poor, simple folk clinging to their guns and religion...

The funny thing is that this general election was the dems to lose.  It seems that it's more important to them to nominate a minority than to win the election...

He might improve his chances if he selects Hilary as his VP.  She seems to be open to it..

Sure she would be. Then when he if he gets elected he ends up having one of those strange accidents or ends up commiting suicide.

Another option would be to simply set him up for an impeachable situation and simply take over. That's another "dirty trick" to fit the mold.

What the hell is Dubya still doing in office, then?

Well, you'd think with as much hatred as there was towards Dubya, if the Dems had a leg to stand on other than rhetoric he'd be out.

That says something in itself.

Nothing clever here.  Please, move along.

Unfortunately the best opportunity anyone had to get rid of him--Violation of Constitutional authority via separation of powers (the precedent was set during LBJ's administration, I believe) by illegally bypassing the courts with the unilateral ordering of warrantless wire-tapping--there was a Republican majority in Congress.

Funny how life works out, isn't it?

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Perhaps all the BS about impeaching Bush for war crimes really was BS  :confused:

We all thought he would when Kerry was the opposition. That was a no-brainer....either vote for Dumb, or Dumber...

Cant argue that. And here we are in 08...no choice again.

Let the games begin.
Democracy is two wolves deciding on what to eat. Freedom is a well armed sheep protesting the vote.
