Liberals, and those who don't bother to consider substance will probably flock to his banner.

it wont be pretty!
democrats= the party that snatches defeat from the jaws of victory more than any other, same thing this time i bet:aok

ugh.


Deja Vu.......same thing was said about a nobody from Arkansas. Nice guy. Good looks. People voted for him because he looked and sounded good on camera. Talked about change...no specifics...but he felt everybodies PAIN...along with thier daughters in the closet so the stories went.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

This is how I see the Dems. They have elitist who are followed by the ignorant. McCain caught onto this and it seems to work quite well.


Ooops, I guess that makes the Republicants very similar.

obama, "we are going to change this country and then we are going to change the world", but he never says exactly what changes are going to happen.

obama is all hat and no horse. But the DNC has put him on the fast track.

The blacks will vote for him because he is black, the young people will vote for him because it will be cool to vote for a black president, and the liberals will vote for him because they are liberals.

I liked JFK! The last half way good democrat. He was a social liberal but a fiscal conservative. He didn't want to got to Nam. It was Johnson who did that and then passed all those horrible entitlement programs in Kennedy's name. Shameless!!

Oh my God I thought I was watching a Tony Powers video for stupid people.

Saving the planet is a Marxist ideal? Are you sure you're making him less palatable?

Just out of curiosity, how old are you? Im not trying to insult you or anything, Im just wondering. It seems that past generations haven't gotten past the novelty stage (one reason so many women are voting for Hillary Clinton), but, out of all honesty, the majority of those in my peer group (that I know, obviously I cant speak for everyone) see the two candidates as, well, candidates, not as a woman candidate and a black candidate. Obviously the majority of the voters are older, and will based on race/sex, but I honestly dont think the younger generation(s) will.

i would vote for the best person for the job, doesnt matter if it's a woman, black, Hispanic, Mormon, Catholic, Evangelical, Italian or even (gasp) a democrat.

you however will play the race card or the gender card or the religion card and claim to be just voting for the person.

I never accused you voting based on race, but I doubt your opinion that young people will vote for Obama because voting for a black person is 'cool', for the reasons I outlined in my post.

I also pointed out that it is the older generations, statistically, that vote based on sex and race.
