128. The irony is thick
"To me, the election of Barack Obama will not represent a sign of progress. It will show the immaturity of a nation that wants a feel good candidate instead of one of maturity."

Gee, is that what you said about the candidacy of JFK, RFK, and Bill Clinton? Hell, Clinton was the same age as Obama when he took the office of President, JFK was younger. Are you saying that they were immature also?

And your implication that the only reason Hillary is being defeated is because the country is sexist is, well, a sexist notion in and of itself. After all, there are plenty of reasons other than her sex not to like Hillary. Some big ones are her IWR vote, her funding of the war, and her Kyle Lieberman signature. But no, it must all be because America is sexist:eyes: Way to smear your fellow Democrats and liberals.

The Hillaryites are now becoming desperate and whiny. It is poetic justice to watch them fall, since initially in this campaign, they were the most belligerent and bellacose, demanding peoples' votes rather than trying to persuade people. Hmmm, maybe that's part of the problem also.
