I voted for Hillary because I think she is the person for the job. Obama is just an "empty suit". Exactly what are his plans? Oh, wait, I know---"Change". That's all he says blah blah blah. Unfortunately, Obama will probably get the nomination. So we know what that means---Hello President McCain! I never voted for George Bush. I realized the country must be full of idiots to elect him twice! Those same idiots will be voting for McCain. All of the bitter people who are clinging to their guns and their religions will be voting for McCain. Yes, some people will vote against Obama because he is black. Yes, some people will vote against him because his name is Barack Hussein Obama. Others will vote against him because of things his acquaintences said/done. Even his wife has said some things that show she would not be a good first lady. I think the only reason that Obama has won so many primaries is this: McCain supporters are voting for the weaker democratic candidate. Obamabots are going to be *shocked* when McCain slaughters him in the general election! I am a college educated, white woman in her 30's.

I’ve made statements which generalize a group of people that were unfair, ignorant, false, and couldn’t be further from the truth once I paused and remembered my own experience completing my studies in the Midwest of the U.S. There I met many good people who welcomed me into their places of business, their community activities, and even their homes because of a mutual trust that we in fact shared many of the same core values in our lives and for our loved ones; even though we weren’t of the same race and our biographies and histories were very different – people who couldn’t be closer to Hillary Clinton’s voter base of working Americans. I speak to the other Barack Obama supporters who are quick and vocal in their disdain yet quiet in their desire for meaningful dialogue with supporters of Hillary Clinton. Please think before you post, as I wish that I did because the true battle will be for the White House next November, and neither Barack Obama nor Hillary Clinton will win if Democratic voters aren’t united whet it comes time to cast their vote.

The black community supports Obama by over 90%. Do you think they are voting on his credentials? Do you think they would be voting for him if he were white? Please, don’t talk to us of racism. Obama would not be where he is if he weren’t black and everyone with half a brain knows it. JB Cal : We can talk about racism all you want and I agree, take a look at the polls and it becomes clear.

Do you not look at the polls? Are you riding on what HIllary spews about winning the states that "matter" like PA and CA? If you would just take a few minutes to look at RealClearPolitics you would quickly notice that Barack wins those states also AS WELL AS many others that McCain smashes Hillary in. Barack clearly has the edge vs McCain. Then in states where he's ahead of both Barack and Hillary, Barack often is much closer to McCain (ie. McCain +2 as opposed to McCain +12 for Hillary). The only states where Hillary is closer to McCain are... you guessed it... racist, backwoods places like WV, NC and KY. They'd vote for Hitler before they'd put a black man in office. I shouldn't summarize the whole state like that because obviously it does not apply to all, but the fact is that those states are largely made up of individuals with very outdated views on society and people. The ignorance is pretty aggravating around here. What is with all you fools saying that Barack is unelectable? Do you not look at the polls?
