Reverse racism? How about those Regan Dems in Kentucky and WV

who said outright that the reason they were not voting for BO was

because of race (how stupid they are), can she explain that one too? She

is such a sore loser and is bent on destroying BO's chances, how can

people become so bitter?

This lady gives me nausea.

lol….she loosing it ya think!!!

GERALDINE JUST NEED A MAN AFTER HE HAS HAD 5 POUNDS OF VIAGRA. SHE NEEDS A LIL' BIT.

She's wrong. She's not a racist, or divisive, or an idiot. She just happens to be incorrect.

Hillary was beaten, fair and square. Sour grapes will do nothing to change that.

Peter Paul vs Clinton in LA Supreme Court-Court date 02/09

As a republican, I will not vote for Obama because of his liberal tax and spend policies. Evidently the race and gender bigots are all democrats!!

This is what happens when you become a political contributor on FOX Noise.

I'm white,over 50 and proud to vote for Obama.Hillary is a crybaby and setting a bad example for all us women.Because of her every man that sees this is going to start rethinking women in politics.She's ruined it for all of us.

Obama never used the race card. It is Clintons and Ferraro who use it to turn off white voters. Recently this lady attended Fox news program and said she prefers McCain, a republican, over Obama who is a fellow democrat, this behavior shows the depth of her stupidity and selfishness.

Ferraro is not the only one playing the race card. CNN is guilty for publishing this crap.

I have a question for all the women who feel that Clinton deserves to be president because she's a woman. What would you do if two qualified women were running against each other? I'd think you'd probably vote for the most qualified. But, when only one woman is running we seem to need to vote for her or be labeled misogynistic. I don't get it. Just like I wouldn't vote for a black man just for the sake of getting the first black president, i wouldn't vote for a woman just for the sake of getting the first woman president. if there was a qualified woman running, i'd probably vote for her. But i will not vote for a divisive, polarizing, vindictive, deceitful woman, just for the sake of getting a woman president.

What a nut job!! She reminds me of my 94 year old grandma who I love dearly but who has some old time jaded views on race and sexism. Ferraro is not doing the party or Sen. Clinton any favors by opening her mouth. I guess in this election of hypersensitivity that anyone can get on CNN. What is Geraldine's role in the Democratic Party anyway? I don't honestly know. Ferraro, is the one driving the hate and sexism and racism as she brings it up everytime a microphone is her face. Goodness. Please just be quiet and let Sen. Clinton and her campaign speak for themselves. If I remember right you are no longer part of the campaign. Therefore, please just shut-up. You are not doing us women any favors.

Look who is talking again. Your 15 minutes were done when you lost with Mondale. Thanks for playing!

CNN! Why do you give this giant skank any play? It really just makes your network look bad.

If white racist democrats won't vote for Obama, then we don't want them anyways.

I'd like for Ms. Ferraro to actually point out just one incident of the Obama campaign playing the race card during this election season. Certainly there are plenty of cable TV shills bringing it up but give me some solid proof of Obama employing it, Geraldine, because we sure do have the goods on you and your racists ways.

Do I hear noise from the hollow pot again?

These kind of talk in fact harms the true feminism and real women, who are strong and struggling everyday to support their families.

Mrs. Clinton does not behave like a true democrat or a true real woman. She somehow made herself and her supporters believe that she is entitled to become the president. And she is trying to justify it with any argument, be it NAFTA, bitter comments, sexism, racism..

Mrs. Clinton lost a lot of credit in this race, and in fact lost long ago. President Clinton I believe lost as much credit as Mrs. Clinton lost.

Last year when I first heard about the candidates, I was first exited, who knows maybe it's Hillary, first female president of US ! But very fast she changed my mind that she is not the one.

I congratulate Barack Obama for his calm, gentilmanly attitude. I also like him that he resist to use cheap tactics like gas tax holiday. I believe he is not going to be the first black president only, but also he will become one of the very best presidents of US.

Very kind regards,
Melody

Whether Geraldine Ferraro is a racist or not it is impossible to deny that she is using that as a tool for political ends. The fact that she is attempting to smear Obama shows that Hillary intends to weaken his canidacy so that he looses in Nov. Hillary I will never support you–ever! You are vile.

oh please, I wish Ferraro would either say something constructive or look for some way to reconcile or just hold her mouth. What does she want, the Obama half of the party to just go away? Get real. This is some of the most divisive stuff I've heard since Rev. Wright.

The problem is, Ferraro is dreadfully unaware of what she is saying and how she is saying it. She seems to be the one making divisive moves here, playing all the various cards, etc… It is not the 80s anymore! (Thank goodness!)

Obama and Clinton are two very different people, with very different personalities. Both are privileged educationally and economically (Clinton much more so economically). Beyond that, Obama has written extensively about his upbringing, yet has never played that card. Clinton seems to, continually, portray herself as a victim. Maybe she has been so deeply victimized, over the years, by her husband, that she cannot see herself in any other light. Tragic, because it makes her look profoundly unaware.

What about you and the Clinton campaign palying the gender card repeatedly.

Have you ever thought about why the Obama supporters are fuming mad at Hillary?

First, her sense of entitlement.
Second, her "I don't have to play by the rules attitude".
Third, her ability to flat out LIE. Without blinking.
Fourth,the fact that she says something and all of her supporters immediatedly believe it and regurgitate it. For example, "I am winning the popular vote".

Hillary and her supporters are the ones to blame. Not Obama. Maybe if this woman didn't lie, and manipulate facts. Didn't whine "why do I always get called on first", cry (NH)., we would all be better off!!

Do not try to turn this around on Obama and his supporters. This has nothing to do with women. It has to do with Hillary Clinton. Unless, Ms. Ferraro, you believe all woman lie, whine, manipulate facts and have this sense of entitlement.

No offense to Ferraro but she's sounding like my dad!! No offense to that woman but maybe she should check what country we live in……

Geraldine need to go somewhere with all these accusation I think she is a racism person and Hillary know Geraldine is a a racism they are trying they best for Obama not to be elected, this is disgrace to America Hillary and Geraldine acting like men's

Is this woman still talking? Someone please put her out of her misery.

FERRARO IS USING THIS OPPORTUNITY TO VENT HER RAGE AGAINST DEMOCRATS WHO DIDN'T SUPPORT HER WHEN SHE RAN. FERRARO DON'T TAKE IT OUT ON US BECAUSE YOU'RE THE LOSER, TAKE IT OUT ON HILLARY BECAUSE SHE STOLE YOUR THUNDER THAT YOU THOUGHT YOU ONCE HAD. SO JUST CRAWL BACK UNDER THAT OLD ROCK OF YOURS.

So let me get this straight.

Geraldine Ferraro accuses Obama of playing the "Race card"?? Even though he is "Bi-racial" (not just black). Not once has he made allegations of "racism" during his campaign. In fact, it's funny how the only time race seems to surface, is when the Clinton campaign brings it up.

And I guess, it's ok for her and Hillary to play the "Gender card" as well huh. Go figure.

what does she actually wants?????? Would it had been fair if obama supporters had said sen.Clinton was in de race because she is married to an ex-president? If she cannot add, then please dont subtract!!! find smoething worthwhile to do!

This woman is as sick as her counterpart Hillary. They are both delusional…They are desperate and clearly clawing on to every last thing left to make sure they get in. They have no shame….the WH is no one's heritage and should not be treated as such. How can they say Obama has played the race card all along when they were the ones who kept talking about black and white…..

Shame on you Geraldine and shame on your candidate Hillary!

You know there is an old saying, if you can’t say anything intelligent then don’t say anything at all. I am sick of small minded people who have nothing better to do than focus on the color of someone’s skin. She wants to whine and cry because of alleged mistreatment of Hillary Clinton of which there is no proof. It is amazing to me what people will say, it is amazing what people choose to believe about someone and the most amazing thing is they will not go in and check the facts. This race has turned into a joke and I fear it will only get worse because of people like Ferraro.

what do you really want? Aren't you the same person who said you might not be vote for Obama if he is the nominee? If that is the case, why do you evern care to speak up at all?
Let it go!!!!!!

So Gerry, when exactly did you join the Republican party? Question, are all the women that support Obama sexist also? Stop it! These false claims of sexism do nothing to help fight the real sexism that exsist in this country.

FYI: You and HILLARY DONT SPEAK FOR THIS WOMAN!!!!!!!!!!

Spread the blame all you want (and get nowhere). The fact is that regardless of who the first woman candidate is, or who the first black candidate is, we would be having this very same argument. You can make the sexist argument day and night, but if you're blind to the reality that the Clinton campaign has benefited from race in many of the same ways then you're argument comes off as completely unhelpful, and as completely biased and self-motivated.

I wish Geraldine would shut up and join the Republican Party!

This lady is crazy. What she is really trying to do is finish what Hilary started and trying to alert everyone that this guy is black. Can you see that people. I think she was going to be Hilary's running mate and they were going too take over the world. I don't think she will vote for him niether will Hilary. Bill will because he understands politics. And as soon as Hilary gets out of the race Bill will campaign with him and for him. Because he likes winners. He cannot wait to get out there with Obama. But not Hilary. I am beginning to understand why we have never had a female President. These two historical figures Ferraro and Hilary are acting like two spoil brats that can't have their way. The only reason Obama is winning is because people voted for him. That is the part they don't understand. He got out their and met the people and the people liked what they heard and voted for him. The same thing with Hilary. She got out there and met with the people and they liked what she said and voted for her. The only thing is more people voted for him. So ladies get over it and move on.

Obama has been playing the race card the entire campaign? When did that happen? I could have sworn we would have heard something about it after, oh, I don't know, WEST VIRGINIA and KENTUCKY, but no, all he did was congratulate her on her victory. IF anyone is guilty it's the voters and the media this stupid 'blame Obama for all of Hillary's woes' game needs to stop. What are they going to say next, that Monica Lewinsky was actually Obama in disguise?

Wow, this lady needs help. Why is she so devisive. And for all you Hillary supporters or feminist out there that doesn't see that should be ashamed of yourselves. Barack Obama has given nothing but praise to Hillary Clinton and was very careful not to disrespect her and so has Hillary Clinton. But when a surrogate like Ferraro comes out and says that, it's DIVISIVE!!! We need to unite in order to put this country back on track, we are all hurting. By the way, all of you who say that they would vote for John Mccain instead of Barack Obama because Hillary is not the nominee, means that at heart you were Republicans all along, and that you do not care about our country

So very, very sad…

What is wrong with Ms. Geraldine Ferraro? She made a mistake in the first place by telling that Mr. Obama is going forward because of his skin clor and she cannot stop making similar mistakes. If being a colored-skin could help someone to become the president, why we have not seen any colored-skin president yet?

I'm a yellow Dog Democrat, believe me when i say Obama will have some serious challenges in the General Election. It would help if his supporters would stop attacking everyone that attempts to criticize him. He will need a unified Democratic Party to win and his young and clueless supporters are driving many would be supporters away.

All of you harping on Obama supporters are in a state of denial. What she is saying partially true and also what the priest said is true. Both camps have had individuals to toss out crazy information. It is true!!! Hillary on the other hand, has basically set the standard for her "white" supporters!!!! You guys are full of bull! I will be so glad to see her go away and I hope those of you whosay you won't vote for him for whatever reason stay home!!!!!!

Reagan Democrats !? Reagan was over 20 years ago. Get over it and stop interfering.

What a bitter egotistical woman. She was a candidate for vise president only because she was a woman, and the democrats mistakenly believed. her name on the ticket would bring in a lot of women voters. They were wrong!!!
I believe she is still laboring under the ilusion that this whole thing revolves around sex and race.

I find your ideology frightening, AND divisive!

Why must I, as a woman, vote for Hillary? She is republican-lite, inside-the-beltway, and just more of the same. I am sick of people like Ms. Ferraro trying to scare people like me into voting for a candidate I do not agree with and do not and will not support.

This is how we know we've reached true equality - I can choose NOT to vote for a female candidate because I disagree with her policies and track record, just like I can apply the same logic to a male candidate.

Obama 08!

So much for uniting the Democratic party! She is trying to excuse her comments. I am a woman and I don't feel Clinton has been treated unfairly, no more than Obama. Big mouth Bill has caused more trouble than he's worth! If we were to measure racism against feminism, who do you think would win? The Clintons are desparate and will use any tactics they can to get back in the White House! If we women can't win HONESTLY, then at least behave like the Ladies you profess to be. I am behind OBAMA and have been from the beginning. I am not voting for a race or sex, but for a person who can heal this bleeding nation.

a nut job…. and so irrelevant… whats happening to CNN?

Hillary was treated unfairly?? Her campaign made critical mistakes early to even allow an opening that Obama walked through. They were arrogant and cocky and thought she had it all wrapped up. Simple fact is there are many of us that feel "blessed" by 8 years of the Clintons and don't feel 8 more would be a good thing.

Time for some youth, time for someone not entrenched and corrupted by years in Washington.

I have lost a ton of respect for Ferraro.

I love the way the Clinton team uses reverse Psychology. I can hear them now…Let's say he played the race card so all the white people will be offended and come over to our side. Let's say we've been sexually discriminated against so all the women will be angry and join us.

Somebody close the old hag cage at the Brooklyn zoo?

Shut the hell up! Loser!

Amazing!! Geraldine sounds very bitter………….

How is Ferraro any different then the catholic priest that spoke in Obama's church? Does it not seem that Ferraro feels that Hillary was to be President thru divine right and then this black upstart comes in with a muslim name and smoked her. There is nothing more bitter then a over 50 feminist who feels they didn't get their deserves.
As Clint Eastwood said in Unforgivin "Deserve got nothin to do with it".

Obama08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Only people who are trapped in "US' and "THEM" will fear being part of a greater WE. If you don't risk equality and you trap yourself in inferiority.

I believe HRC should stay in the race, if she had a chance of winning the nomination under the rules that all agreed to. Her camp has moved the goalpost so many times and it appears they are willing to continue moving the goal until it favovrs the Clintons. They don't care about what's good for the party. They say they do, but that's just doulbe talk. They care about the Clintons, period!! If HRC and Bill are handed this nomination, the Dems can forget about the WH for at least the next 8 years, if not longer. The Clintons are "despised!" In the general election, the flood gate of voters on the "RIGHT," will make the record turnouts of Dem voter in the primary look like childs play. Are Dems willing to risk lossing the WH for 8 more years? Folks need to think about what it really means to have a Clinton nomination

This woman here needs to get a real JOB!!! A year ago no one would have tought Obama would get this far. And now that he is close to the finish line; the enivetable clintonians are cought puzzling. Oh its sexist, and its the media. It's not Obama fault that he is genuine, and well like by everyone. It is Billary fault for being dishonnest with the American people. You cannot trust a word that comes out of her mouth.

Obama 08-12

What do you know, the crazy lady is back again and over what is she making new controversials now?! about the Reagan dems! Why, i just want to know, why? Is that all her worth? Dividing and whinning over everything and why is the media is paying her any attention. I mean, i don't see how important she is. She's a lunatic!

Oh dear God… SHUT UP ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ferraro: You made me SICK!

It continually amazes me how the team that had a 20 point lead and all the power of the democratic machine behind them, squandered it through laziness and arrogance AND NOW screams racism.

You're just mad because your Mom wanted a boy….that's why she named you "Gerald"-ine.

I THINK IT WOULD BE GREAT TO HAVE A FEMALE AS OUR PRESIDENT—BUT THANK GOD IT WILL NOT BE HILLARY CLINTON..SHE IS ONE OF THE MOST HATEFULL WOMEN TO EVER ENTER POLITICS.
OBAMA WILL BE OUR NEXT PRESIDENT.

Hey all of you Clinton supporters that are hoping for a breakthrough for Hillary! Your friend Geraldine just killed it! Obama has not used the race card! Its surrogates like Ferraro using the race card in the name of the candidates. Hillary has not receive sexually biased treatment! She was treated like anyone WITH MORE EXPERIENCE! The incumbents are always scrutinized more MAINLY because in their tenure they have more to scrutinize! Sounds to me you wanted Hillary to have SPECIAL treatment and that to me is sexism! DUH!!! By the way, isnt "Reagan Democrat" an oxymoron?

Obama you are dirt!

Why is it that she (Ferarro) and Bill are the only ones who ever seem to bring up race as an issue? Are they trying to do Hillary's work for her by making it an issue?

"The effects of racism and sexism on the campaign [which] have resulted in a split within the Democratic Party that will not be easy to heal before election day.”

Thank you, Geraldine, for fueling both, and widening the divide. Now please sit down and be quiet.

I am absolutely befuddled by this woman.

Geraldine Ferraro is turning out to be the Frankenstein's (Clinton's) monster of this campaign. She is taking every innuendo that Clinton has put out there to promote her candidacy–from Obama is the candidate of black people, to Obama and the media are against women–and is shouting it on public streets.

This is what happens when politicians like Hillary Clinton and her camp think it's fair game to say anything to score points on the Sunday morning talk shows–some people take those words as true, and act on them.

Geraldine Ferraro scares me. And it was Hillary Clinton who brought her to life.

This divisive angle that Hillary and her ardent supporters have taken is shameless. In essence they're accusing the Obama supporters (and the media) of the same bigotry that they're spewing. So, there is a double standard for racism, but not for sexism? Come on. Bitter, petty? Yes I agree with those… and the wedge that's being driven into the campaign is being created by these bitter women. The fact that they liken the current scenario in Florida and Michigan to disenfranchisement is beyond insulting. This is a primary, not a general election. The fact that she drags Reagan dems into it shows that she's intent to show she's not bitter. Sorry that Hillary and her supporters felt entitled to the nomination - since the same media handed it to her a year ago, but she's the most polarizing figure in politics and many people dislike her for her arrogance and selfishness. Some of what the republicans said about the Clintons is actually true.

Thank you Geraldine for speaking the truth! Too bad the obamanics are going to be disappoint call Nov.
NOBAMA!!!!!!!! IF NOT HILLARY THAN MCCAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm a registered Democrat and I think there's a lot of truth to what she is saying–A lot of people in Oklahoma find it taht way

Clinton/Ferraro 08

What a great Independent Campaign that would be!!!

Hilliary compaed herself to Rocky Balboa. At that time i asked myself what was wrong with Joan of Arc. Then an endorser who was male said she had testetcular fortitude and she was all smiles. I say she did this to herself. As for the race card I won't make a comment. this has been nothing but untruths and this woman won't stop until she destroy any chance for obama.

Hey, Ann Coulter….oops….I mean Geraldine, shup up. CNN, this bag of wind should be religated to Fox News. She no longer has any credibility and does not deserve your attention.

Reagan Democratics are really Conservative Republicans who can't read or write. So when they completed thier Voter registration card, they had checked off democrat instead of conservative. Mrs. Ferraro please tells the public when was the last time this voting bloc has voted for a democrat.

Now THIS is a better definition of BITTER…….she lost with Mondale and has always blamed SEXISM for it. Now this misconception has found a new home in Hillary's campaign.

FACE IT…….Ferraro, both Clintons, and people like them are the ones who KEEP BRINGING UP sexism and racism…NOT Obama.

What Obama supporters and the rest of the Democratic Party are missing is that the Party is really divided like it has never been. ALmos t half of the Party supports Hillary and what she stands for. The DNC leadership and the Obama supporters do not realize that without the other half of the Democratic voters we will not win.

however all these kids, african-americans and upscale democrats keep offending and spilling hate and venom from their mouth and leading the division among the Democrats to places that will be really hard to heal and reconcile again.

I see a clear path of defeat if we do not do something fast and it is not what the DNC is doping tomorrow as they are highly responsible of the whole mess we are in.

This old hag is out of her G-D mind!

Obama did not play race card…he just responded to attacks…..if he did so what. HRC has been playing gender card!

What is really sinister here is the implication that Affirmative Action is Barack Obama's only way to the White House. Basically, she's saying that he wouldn't have won (fair and square) on delegates if he were white. Ridiculous. Hillary lost because she ran a bad campaign up until six weeks ago. Ferraro is not a racist. But she gives all people out there who are "worried" about a black president a reason to keep worrying by implanting these ridiculous suggestions in their heads. This is EVERYONE's time to start over. If she's upset, it's because the coalition that Barack Obama has formed IS bigger and better than the Regan Democrats who vote primarily based on identity politics and social issues. Why is it that whites in America feel this entitled to the presidency, and why is it that no one is ready to give Barack Obama his due? He ran a good campaign and he won. To blame that on "reverse racism" which only exists in the minds of whites in America to dumb to recognize the inherent advantage of being white is irresposible, and it panders to those who just want a reason to hate Obama when he's done nothing wrong. Pure evil.

is she paying attention to anything? hillary as the victim and the fighter has not worked.

also, how can obama be seen as someone who divides? if you listen to him for more than three seconds you realize this is the opposite of his message. the division has been create by the other participants and their rovean campaign strategies. your time is up.

America is not mature enough to handle the 1st African American & the 1st Woman contending for Presidency at the same time.

When Hillary was the front runner and Barack was a "nobody", it was OK because no one thought the conflict between the two campaigns would arrise.

From very early on, Hillary made an outward appeal to women … "Let's make history" she said over and over to largely female audiences. These are her words, not an interpretation of the campaign slogans or her supporters like Ferrao.

Mr. Obama, never made a similar appeal to people under 50 years of age, African Americans, college & post graduate degree holders (or whoever the media seeks to align as his supporters).

Hillary tried to walk both sides of the line … that's why she's in trouble. You can't talk about being "Ready on Day 1 to be COMMANDER IN CHIEF" and then whine & cry. You can't have your husband talk about politics as a "Contact Sport" or say "if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen" and then complain when you get hit back after you've employed a "throw the kitchen sink" strategy.

Honorable Democrats … Honest Democrats … That's what America want. Blue means Trustworthy ….

American questions if Hillary deserves to wear the Blue.

Geraldine:

Now you have made it so clear another big reason why Walter Mondale (I will increase taxes when elected)

lost so big Ronald Reagon. Because he chose a big looser in you

as a vice presidential candidate. It's people like you that make me

wake up in the morning and feel worthy of having a little common

sense.

Please, find a rocker and read bead time storys to homeless kids in

New York at sunset years. You have a chance of salvaginf a little

tiny bit of whatever image you have.

image you have.

Why in the world would anyone listen to what she has to say and why is CNN reporting it?

What will it take to let Geraldine Ferraro know
that a badly needed vacation would help her attitude?

Just remember public, the old politicians are becoming
obsolete….so they need to have their last gasp of "opinion"

Welcome the 21st Century with fresher, more advanced,
mindful of America's dreams politicians…the new women
and men in politics are coming…In with the new, out
with the old………..

Are you frightened? Then slip back under your rock. No one wants to hear the mutterings of a crazy old woman.

PLEASE send this madwoman away with the other one. What a bad name both of these are giving to women all over. She is so bitter and the other is such a sore loser. Really great role models.

Where does she get the credibility to convince people that Obama is "frightening". Of course a lot of us do not frighten easily in response to inflammatory statements for which there is no basis, just opinion.

no more of her, please !!

Not her again. Oh is it her? Oh lord have mercy!

you call her a racist..and totally look the other way when the obama does it. why the double sided coin? another message of hate by the sad excuse for a catholic priest and the people in the back..not racist right?

michelle obama's thesis..not racist?
obama's comments..never racist right?

the democratic party is being hijacked by liberal loonies..wake up america and i wish that someone would stand up to them and bring them back to the real world….but no the democratic party keeps bowing down to them…just another loss in the fall..dukakis, kerry, obama

my vote has been solidified…if not hillary then mccain…

disenfranchised young democrat

Do i hear another DOG barking?

Geraldine,

I don't think you are helping Hillary's case. I am offended. I'm a 48 year old feminist that proudly supports Senator Obama, so you and Shrillary do not speak for all women.

OLDER WOMEN FOR OBAMA, 08

Is anything that she has to say really news? She has not power and one superdelegate vote. The media is making her feel like she is relevant and she was't relevant went they made the mistake of running her on that losing ticket as vp.

Even if Hillary runs as an independent she will LOSE. Where is she going to get the money. Her supporters get on very site talking about how great she is but they are not putting their money where their mouth is.

Yes he DID play the race card HOW DARE HE BE BLACK!!!! How dare a man of integrity, honor, strength and courage be BLACK and a MAN!!! Why just YESTERDAY a WHITE man made fun of a WHEITE WOMAN IN FAVOR OF A BLACK MAN how can we let this go unpunished. Send that BOY back to Chicago we cannot have him representing us!

and to quote another psoter send sarcasm

She has been treated badly since she showed herself for being a lying two faced loser and old bigots like oyu cannot get over the fact that your "ordained, predestined" leading liar was losing.

moronic clintonistas

Sen. Clinton is losing the Dem. Party's nomination fair and square — she has fewer delegates than Sen. Obama does. It has nothing to do with her gender, and she is in fact totally undermining feminist progress when she plays the victim of sexism as an explanation for her loss. Was there sexism in this race? Yes. Is the the reason, or has it even contributed slightly to her loss? Absolutely not.
Signed,
Feminist Woman for Obama

Obama's minister's comments show just how muchracism there is in america. Not only in the primary but it the country. I will vote for McCain not because Obama is black but because he does not offer
himself as Presidential material. He lacks experience in the senate.

I won't let this country be run by a junior senator who dupped this country with "change". Be realistic it ain't that easy. Hillary is the best
candidate but I will wait till 2012 . Hillary you were mistreated especially with the Pastor's remarks!!!

Does anyone honestly believe that it was easier for Barack Obama to get where he is right now than it was for Hillary Clinton?

Hillary and Geraldine are sisters in spirit and in politics—neither could win the nomination for president. The one who brings up the issue of racism constantly is Ferraro and that is because she is a racist. Wanna bet that she will never be reelected?

desperate

I think she's lost her bearings. She is pathetic. I'm a working white middle-aged woman who is sick and tired of the Clintonistas complaint of sexism. How on Earth can being a woman running for President be any more challenging than being African-American?

Go Obama '08

Obama was not the one that injected race into this campaign. Hillary is playing both the race and gender card. Last time I checked this isn't about electing someone that looks like you; it is about selecting an honest and responsible leader. Hillary doesn't know how to lose; may she burn in hell.

And by the way, the Clintons forced Obama to bring race in this campaign. He never once said anything about it until NC when Bill opened his mouth. He tries not to mention race but she continues to mention being a woman. Do you hear Obama telling voters to vote for him because he's black? NO! Do you hear Clinton telling people to vote for her because she is a woman? YES!

The exit polling reflects that of voters that gender mattered to they overwelmingly supported clinton. The exit polls say that of voters who said race mattered to them overwelmingly supported Clinton.

Her opinion is not supported by fact and is therefore the weaker of the "racism vs. sexism in '08″ debate.

Geraldine Ferraro, America's sweetheart…

Give it up, sister! As a woman who runs her own business, takes care of her home, her bills and generally has been Superwoman all her life, you disgust me. Is this how all older white people really think? And what about Black people? Why can't we express our pain without being accused of living in the past? Why don't the Reaganicans just admit that Black people had their own Holocaust, right here in America, and that the effects of 400 years CANNOT be erased in less than 70 years!!!!

I think Barack and Ferarro should have a sit down meeting. He needs to educate her as to who he is. I thought Ferarro had a college education already but it is not showing.

I applaud you Geraldine! Its about time we caled it what it is.
Women are too smart for the men. Thats the truth of it. And women are more capable of handling the affairs of the nation than what the men have been doing for the past 200 + years. You won't find the women sitting in their chairs asleep waiting for the bell to ring ( nap time over, let's golf or party) they will be going about getting the business of the nation done. That's what "wives, mother, managers, nurses, chauffers, chief cook and bottle washers" DO ! BIG Hurah for us ! Go Geraldine !

Amen not only Frightening, but Anti American!!!!!!

This woman is crazy… Is she still around… please go away

It is very important to be respectful in our disagreement with Geraldine Ferraro. But after she has voted for John McCain, she will look around and wonder why did all those other Reagan folks like Scott McClellan vote for Barack Obama.

SHE IS 100% CORRECT.

off her meds and her cage door is open. Gerry Ferraro always shows up just before a primary. Doing damage to the party.

Ms. Ferraro, I agree with you.

BO won't get my vote.

Oh, that poor rich white woman…
Reagan Democrats voted for Bush in the last election, anyway. Sorry Geraldine, you're behind the curve here…

Hillary was not treated unfairly, that is the game that Hillary is trying to shoot to make people feel sorry for her.. I am a woman and I know whats right and wrong… Hillary ran her campign like a fruit stand owner trying to sell soggy tomatoes… now if she did not have enough fertilizer to make them firm and ripe.. then thats her business.. It is she who is tearing the party apart…
Geraldine and the Clintons need to grow up and except the inevitable….SHE HAS LOST!

Stop trying to spin this… I think the batteries in the Clinton spin machine is just about to die!

ps.. I am a woman and I am voting for OBAMA….

Fade back into obscurity, you dried-up has been. You just want a cabinet position in a Clinton administration. Stand in line. You, Lanny Davis, Governor Rendell, etc.

This woman is crazy in love with Obama.
I guest so but she a hatefull woman, so hate and love don't go. She may have to need someone else to go to.
WHy calling OBAMA always while he never call her name??

THEY ALSO FIND YOUR NECKLINE 'frightening'. IT IS FUNNY HOW CARTER AND THIS FOSSEL ARE ALL CLIMING OUT OF THE WOODWORK TO BECOME MORE RELEVENT. SHE IS SO OUT OF TOUCH. HOW OLD IS THIS LADY? I THINK SHE WENT TO FIRT GRADE WITH MCCAIN.

As a woman Geraldine Ferraro does not speak for me. If she was really trying to help Hillary Clinton, she would not speak for her either. Ferraro is irrelevant, and her rants make her appear an extremist at best, and a racist at worst. if the real aim is equality,and it should be, then why keep throwing the word sexism in the mix, and instead talk about why she thinks Clinton is the stonger candidate, not just how she thinks it is unfair that Clinton is losing, and yes she is losing. Isn't this just the same thing people keep accusing the Obama camp of, saying that they keep bringing up race, and then if you say anything about it, you must be a racist. By the way if you are actually paying attention, the Obama campaign does not constantly bring up race, or bring it up pretty much at all. That would again be the Clinton camp, ala "hard working white people", etc, and Ferraro "He wouldn't be a viable candidate if he were not black"……….

Yet another interesting tactic?? Or just more Bull….?

Please do me a favor: DROP DEAD.

What's wrong with this lady? That is if she's a lady.

What a bitter old woman… …the kind that sits on the porch and yells at me if I accidentally walk to close to her dried up lawn.

And, Reagan Democrats were smart enough to independantly choose the better candidate. They dont just follow the crowd and vote republican because an old yenta like Ferraro says they are.

I personally think if Barack Hussein Obama gets the nominee, and goes up against McCain in November, he WILL LOSE!

I also agree with Ferraro in that the main stream media has been unfair to the Clinton campaign and gave Barack Hussein Obama way more positive media coverage than what they gave Hillary Clinton.

I cannot believe that the media thinks of Barack Hussein Obama as the up and coming "Golden Boy"? He is like any other politician, and after reading what he did in Chicago in his first run for State Senate, proves that he is like any other politician.

I believe that if Obama gets the nominee, then ALL of the Hillary Clinton's followers should tell her to become an Independent, and we ALL can vote for Hillary. If Obama gets the nominee, I plan on writing Hillary's name as a "write-in candidate". Or else, end up voting for McCain.

Hey Guys,

This is a sick aging lady who is a poor looser –i am so glad she never got the nod…..the worst of the liberal democratic tradition in the body of a female…

She is dead-on what's wrong with my generation…we are stuck in the mud.

Give the new gerations a chance…

Go Obama 08..

Can we say racist and hypocritical and full of bull. Lady get over it your fried has lost and you are angry because she is entitle to the White House. Ya Right.

People who are racist and live their lives hating another race should be placed on a plane and send to some other country for 2 years to live and work and eat besides the race they hate until they are no longer a racist.

Get a real life Ferraro and buck up like a true woman, that has some gumption left in your life.

Geraldine needs to reexamine her stance - Hillary has not been treated unfairly because she is a woman. Anything wrong with Hillary's campaign is not a result of sexism - Geraldine get a grip. The media has not played any more of a role in Hillary's campaign as it has in Obama's or McCain's - the truth speaks for itself. Hillary has run a mockery of a campaign, from Chelsea jogging near the towers, to her own brush with death and the sniper fire, to her husband's blunders and outbursts. And you speak of ethics - go away Geraldine - you have hit an all time low.

She may have resigned from the Clinton campaign but now she is the unofficial attack dog!! Hillary was treated unfairly? How? The poress downplayed the lies about Bosnia, Northern Ireland and NAFTA. they have not pressed any further for disclosure on donations to the Clinton library, they have not explored the multiple connections of people within her campaign and the Columbia Free Trade Agreement, or the involvement of lobbyists and lobby money in her campaign.

Frankly that yhave goven her a free ride there and allow her to continue to press her nonsensical "I am winning" statements by not calling them the bald faced lies that they are.

The pure fact is Clinton underestimated her opponent and ran a misguided and ismanaged campaign. She complains about Obama overspending her by 3 or 4 to 1 despite that she has raised almost as much money as he has. So why the difference in spending? Perhaps because he is a better executive. Perhaps that would make him a better steward of the national budget. Perhaps he is just a better candidate. Has that crossed Hillary or Geraldine's minds?

Reading some of the comments here, you Obamabots really make her point. Ferraro presents a well-thought argument and states it without malice. Your responses?

Rob - WA : OMG - Turkey necks unite!!! Ferraro you make me ill!!!!

Danny in Pittsburgh: So…Geraldine. You want the Dems to WIN this thing or not? If so, the STFU! If not, then go be a republican, you bitter, misguided, vindictive crone.

Dandelion. : I hate this woman almost as much as I hate Clinton! Hag doesn't know what she's talking about!

And I thought Clinton supporters were supposed to be uneducated.

I wish that mannish looking she-beast would just shut her trap and go away.

Ms. Ferraro's comments just add more fuel to the fire that John McCain is eager to see burning. PLEASE STOP WHINING about "sexism" and "racism" and get with the program. Does she want a Republican to continue the disaster that has been torturing this country for the last eight years or will she finally realize we need a CHANGE and renovation (if that's still possible) of the United States. The people have spoken for Senator Obama so lets give him the full support he needs to win the White House and STOP feeding McCain's propaganda machine.

I don't understand this woman's logic, nor do I understand why she thinks her stance would do her candidate any good at all. But given that she seems — at the very least — to be somewhat nuts and quite vindictive, I'm glad she's not in public office.

IF YOU DON,T THINK THE OBAMA FAMILY ARE NOT RACIST THEN READ WHAT HIS WIFE WROTE UPON GRADURTING FROM COLLAGE THE WAS SHOKING, HOW SHE HATED WHITE PEOPLE FOR WHAT THE DID TO THE BLACKS, SHE IS THE REAL RACIST HERE. AN YOU WANT HER TO BE FIRST LADY. THAT SHOULD BE A REAL BIG FAT NOOOOOO.

Geraldine Ferraro is pretty irrelevant. Did she ever matter? "Reverse racism"? What do white people have to be afraid of? She is the one injecting race in this. I think it would be awesome to have a black president. It might show the world we aren't just a country of rednecks and idiots. But that is substantial part of our country. How else could you explain the fact that Fox News exists?

It's easy to see why many Obama supporters are so easily swayed by rhetoric. They really don't see the big picture! They are naive and they are gullible. It is unfortunate that he has been able to mesmerize so many, but the truely sad issue is that so many Americans are so naive, and politically ignorant.

I would vote for Obama's ideals if he were White, Black, or a woman. This lady is clearly underestimating him, as Hillary's campaign did. That is why they are currently losing.

The irony is that all Hillary supporters talk about is sexism, and essentially they are the ones that bring up race as well.

Fluff only gets you so far. Obama talks issues. It is after all, an election for a President who works for us, not for their own legacy.

I am Hillary Clinton, and I approve this message????

Better call the funny farm and let them know that one of their patients escaped.

Seriously though, does this woman not know how to keep things to herself? I'm convinced that she just likes to hear herself speak.

SHOULD WE CALL WHITE WOMEN RACISTS TOO FOR GOING OVERWHELMINGLY FOR HILLARY. SINCE YOU ARE CALLING BLACK RACISTS .
BLACK PEOPLE HAVE BEEN VOTING FOR YOU PEOPLE ALL THERE LIVES. I DONT BLAME THEM

I think she has some hang up with black men. All women must support Hillary Clinton but if the majority of blacks support Obama that is reverse racism. No it ain't lady, it's pride.

I wish she would back up her rant with some facts. When exactly and what did he say that is sexist or racist other than when he is forced to respond to made up attacks on Cliinton. I read today this bizarre belief Obama gave her the finger. OMG, anyone watching has come to see Barack is a gentlemen and would not risk his own chances to win just to flip someone the bird? Total BS.

You, Ms. Ferraro, and your disgusting attitude are more frightening than anything in existence in politics today. Go climb under your rock and come out when you are ready to wear a pair of big girl underwear with an attitude adjustment from psychaitric treatment.

there is no one more racist than Ferraro her own comments said it. She is only promoting more racial divide by making these types of statements.

This woman is just as delusional as her candidate. Thank God for Obama, as we could have ended up with Her sorry candidate in the white house. I am so tired of these people and their manipulation, trying to sway voters, and cause an uproar, when we need to be uniting and getting behind our nominee.

Obama is our nominee. Democrats Unite

Will this lady please go away! I am a woman and I do not believe Clinton was treated any different than Obama! Clinton has been the divider of this party and she and her husband's nasty politics is what caused her to LOSE. Get over it! The Clintons are trying to cheat their way to the top by seating FL and MI delegates in full which is absolutely ridiculous. No one in her campaign said anything about these 2 states being penalized until she started losing. This is so desperate on her part. I do not get how she wants all the people’s votes to be heard while excluding the people that voted in caucuses. Wow! I am so tired of this campaign and the Clintons.

Come on Ferraro. We're sorry you didn't win anything and you're causing Hillary problems. No one wants to see a bunch of HENS clacking in the white house. All those raging washed up hormones. Oh yes, I am a female. That's why I know it would be a disaster. Get Real.

GET IT THROUGH YOUR HEAD! IT'S NOT BECAUSE SHE'S A WOMAN, IT'S BECAUSE SHE'S A LYING, DECEITFUL, NON-TRANSPARENT, SHRILL, SELF-ENTITLED INSIDER.

sorry for yelling, but this "sexism" thing pisses me off.

Please go away. You look at a frustrated 'L' know what I mean..

Of course Regan Democrats find Obama frightening. This is the first time that many racist will have to think of calling a Black man Commander in Chief.

This lady needs to get over herself. If people are being so sexist towards Clinton, then why are there more white Regan males voting for her. Sounds like it is more racism than sexism.

PLEASE POST MY COMMENTS. I SEE MUCH WORSE THAT GETS POSTED ON HERE!!!

Is Hillary using her to scare the white voters? How come Hillary does not distance herself from this CRAZY RACIST old woman? How come the press is not asking Hillary if she agrees with Ferraro's views? She is definetly out of line. The fact the Obama group ignored her is bothering her. The old lady is craving for attention…you won't get. Please put her back in secured mental hospital.

this women is a hypocrite. she says that “If you're white you can't open your mouth without being accused of being racist…”. but yet, she accuses anyone that is not a clinton supporter of being sexist anytime they open their mouth. if hillary is not the dems nominee, it wont be because of sexism, sweety.

She has hit the nail on the head. That's why Obama has lost half the Democratic party! Don't be intimidated by the Obama surrogates who will undoubtedly call you a racist. (See above, sigh…)

Keep telling the truth Ms. Ferraro!

She speaks the truth, and I honestly believe if we all just see things as they are instead of trying to put spin spin spin on it, we will then
be more united, the name calling and the bashing of a former First Lady has been despictable irrerguardless of who you support. I wouldnt bash any First Lady just because an election is at hand. I see
a very need for whites and blacks alike to look at themselves and their very hearts and souls and face the truth about themselves. On that note, I truly believe all other races that are American citizens that are neither black or white must wonder at times if they are invisible. Could it be that both whites and blacks just yell louder? I think this is the case.

Why is this lady still able to publish editorials? People still listen to her?

Sexism? It's amazing what comes out of peoples mouths when they lose….always trying to find someone or something to blame to ease the anger and hatred…

Ferraro is so hysterical. She is asking for research to prove a point that won't make a difference and won't elect her candidate.
For one thing, peoples' thoughts, feelings, attitudes are difficult to measure in a way that cause and effect can be proven. The reason people make choices is comprised of factors that defy measurement. Secondly, sexism and racism cannot be controlled by legislation.

Her words "but I know it will never happen again as long as women are willing to stand up and make sure that it is just a one-time bad experience" (in reference to Hillary's campaign being impacted by sexism). As a woman I never want to lose the right to vote my way,
and that could mean voting for a man.

Dream on Ferraro.

Obama supporters - please knock it off with the foul language and insults! Support your candidate without slamming anyone else. Ferraro's comments are unfortunate, but just let it go. It doesn't help Obama's cause by foaming at the mouth about it, or screaming at Hillary/Ferraro supporters. Just let it go, and let's work towards unity. Supporting Obama with dignity will help more than anything else.

Wow, the old racist rears it's ugly head again.

Please go and sitedown. I am very disappointed to Geraldine Ferraro. She should be the one making sure that the party are together and not divided. Please respect yourself.
At your age you should show good example to others.

Not as frightening as you were when you ran against Reagan. Remember you are one of the Democrats that forced your party members to the Republicans…thus creating the term "Reagan Democrats" What would you know about that ???

Geraldin, nobody cares what you think! Shut your ancient and stupid self the hell up and go back to the KKK meeting.

You and Bill and Hillary KKKlinton are the biggest jokes in politics right up there with Bush.

Before I blog - CNN probably won't post this. Obama is frightening. Cnn why are you not letting us discuss about the horrible "priest" in Obama's church? No we cannot hold Obama accountable for what others say but this is his background for the last 20 years. The hate in his church for white people is frightening and he was there. Wake up people!

Why don't you get off your rag and quite being so jealous of a biracial intelligent Presidential nominee. You and Billary could learn a lesson from him regarding respect. You are never going to amount to your full potential of Supreme "B", so let the people speak and elect a man who will be able to live up to his. I'm so sick of you, Hillary and Bill blaming everybody else for her loss! Grow up!

What's with this woman. People are forgetting or maybe they are just looking at the color of his skin but he is 50% black and the other 50% white - raised by white family no influence of black while growing up.
I hate it when people try to define situations using meaningless terminology.

The whole point is that Hilary is losing, and she is losing for many reasons (untrustworthiness, dishonesty and lies, lies and more lies). It has nothing to do with the fact that she is a woman as a woman it would be wonderful to have a woman in charge but she cannot even manage her campaign funds (20 million in the hole) how can she manage the countrys' financial issue. If she were more electable like what she is saying she would be very much ahead.

One more thing if the tables were turned would she have been this anxious for all the votes (Michigan and Florida) to be counted because I do recall in the beginning when she was in the lead and she said it does not matter those votes don't count but now that she is hanging by a thin thread they count not that it will make a difference.

Thank you for your clear and well-expressed analysis.

Most of us who don't have a crush on Obama are in fact having a hard time understanding those who do or understanding why their vision seems to become so clouded and why their thinking seems to have become so bizarrely twisted (surely, the thinking of anyone who calls him or herself a Democrat, pats Murdoch and McClellan on the back for nonsensical praise for Obama, and then turns to spit on Hillary has been bizarrely twisted).

Thank you.

HILLARY CLINTON '08

Regan Democrats is why Bush was elected not once, but twice. New people are being drawn to the political process who don't have your archaic ideas and understanding of politics coming down to polarization are entering the process so the "Reagan Democrats" can continue to vote against their best interests and whine about it later.

So kick rocks Geraldine!

McCain's (media ignored) Triple Play: Hagee, Parsley, and Falwell!

Racist white people come up with every excuse they can to deny, rationalize, or marginalize their bias. "Reverse racism?"

That's just another way to deflect responsibility. There are far more whites who wouldn't vote for a black man than there are blacks who wouldn't vote for a white woman. The percentages are greatly different, too. Saying "He doesn't understand us" doesn't cut it. YOU don't understand HIM. Try…try to get over your hatred and resentment, and try to understand him.

Clinton lost fewer votes for being a woman than Obama has lot for being black.

not again Mrs Geraldine.it is over.
get over it and move on with your life
Bruno Nana

Ferraro, trailblazer…HAHAHA. Everytime this woman shows up and speaks, it harkens back to 1984 when she was on the ticket with Kennedy and got crushed. She is probably the most divisive women in modern politics and Hillary sillary has been using this b!tches playbook. Bill is all for sex(ism), Geraldine and Hillary sillary=lovers?

Where is Huma Abedin?

Ms. Ferraro betrays her own fears here. This campaign has shown us how far we have to go as individuals and as a nation with regard to gender and race.

What is "frightening" is the anger and bitterness that supporters of both sides have demonstrated. Personally I believe that the Clintons are guilty of feeding this, which in turn has caused Obama supporters to bare their teeth. For his part, Senator bama has demostrated great poise and patience.

Ms. Ferraro should re-read Gloria Steinham's book, "Revolution from Within," which points out quite well the unrecognized prejudices that we all have to wrestle with.

As far as those "reagan democrats", well, isn't she really just saying that they won't vote for an African-American?

Geraldine Ferraro is insane, and clearly deaf and blind, too. I'd like to know an example of someone criticizing Obama and being called a racist because of it. Yet whenever anyone has criticized Clinton for just about any reason they've been accused, either subtlety or overtly, of being sexist. And for those who have said that the media is sexist, I have heard from those from other countries, namely the UK, that the way our media has covered this election would be considered incredibly racist in their country.

To say that Senator Obama has used the race card, is a blatant lie! In fact, he has done the opposite! I find it interesting that Ferraro never entertains the idea that the reason Senator Clinton has gotten where she is because she is flying on the coattails of her former husband and you can bet she uses his "wonderful Presidency" whenever she can. Does anyone really think that she would be where she is without him? I get furious with idiots like Ferraro who are so intent on hiring a woman that they are incapable of fairly evaluating
