My producing teacher did the same thing... except she referred to Obama as "Osama bin Laden". She was embarassed when she realized what she'd done. And she is neither conservative nor running for president. Ah phooey.

I don't think it's a big deal. "Apparently" Osama... I mean Obama, will have some prejudices if he runs for president based on his name and race. Not that it is right, it just will happen. I think Hillary will get the Dem. nomination and face off against Giuliani. Which is a win-win for Democrats... Giuliani is far from the traditional conservative Republican. Being a Republican that's what I see happening... The outcome either way will be in favor of the Democrats this time. The first thing I ever thought about when I saw Obama... was Osama...
