Judy, Have you posted anything about what you think the swiftboaters are going to do to Obama that will so besmirch him that he'd lose -- to of all people -- McCain? I'm not talking about anything new, just what they'll do with what they've uncovered about Obama so far.
With 70 percent of America consistently in the polls wanting out of Iraq -- NOW -- I'm wondering what you think the swiftboaters are going to be able to do to get the masses to take the War off the front burner. It seems you're saying that Americans are so racist (I'm nodding my head here) that they'll kill another 4,000 G.I.'s and another million Arabs rather than have a black man for president? I totter that way, but I can't get to the tipping point. I think the Iraq war has taken a bigass toll, and Obama is "white enough," and the recession is definitely a case of the Mexican invasion, the trillions spent on war, outsourced jobs, and the civil rights abuses coming home to roost. Obama also is someone smart enough to take an attack and make lemonade out of it. If they come at him for Wright's stuff again, he'll just do the same thing and get all that free advertising on national TV again. I'm agreeing that politics are dirty and that Obama's dirty too. I don't know if Hillary or Obama is more sinful in this regard, but with Hillary's "false baggage" that has been created by Fox Noise etc., I'm claiming victimhood and sincerely questioning if I can ever see her truly -- if I ever did. The biggest bestest mostest nicest thing about her is her herness. A woman in the White House could snap the heads of states' heads around in just such a way as to lessen what American men have done to our nation's image and give the world some hope. And a woman's insight, pardon my sexism, is sooooo much deeper than a man's, that that would be another chunk of new too. Her election could certainly make the world pause and rethink us over here. But her old man let half a million be murdered by "Chinese hired thugs" in Africa, and I just have the hardest time thinking that he didn't tar her -- like himself -- with the same brush. Silence during that era condemns her -- YMMV. Add to that all the lies told about the Clintons that somehow got under my radar and wasn't noticed as lies, and I'm just not getting anywhere near to liking Hillary. It would take me, say, 50 hours of reading HER promotional materials just to balance me out. Ain't gunna happen. I think I'm going to have to vote for her if she gets the nom -- rather than Nader or whomever, but it's going to be hard. So, I got sidetracked on Hillary there. I'm mostly interested in your predictions about Obama. Do you think that racism is the only "big hammer" they've got in store for him? Barring a love child or an ecstasy addiction surfacing, race seems to be the only card that can be played against him by the haters. His connections to BigOil etc. are all too common to single out. I'm listening. I know you're out of posts here shortly, so if you want to write to me offline -- great.
