126. my second post to you
I am sorry that you have been called a troll. Denial is at hand here. I have already stated my opinion here. One cannot say word against Obama on Daily Kos, and funny because I feel the same as Kos. and it is his website!
Race is going to be the only game in town, not military service. Race ... Black and White. In my opinion it does not matter who Obama picked, it will all boil down to voting for a black man, which I did in February and will do so in November.
And when one goes into that lonely booth, it matters and and I dont know how my age group will vote I am almost 71. My fear is that this large voting block will stay at home or crossover, and girlfriend and husband are staunch democrats, but their eyes glazed over today at our annual American Legion picnic. I mentioned Caroline Kennedy because they are also catholics and I brought up Biden (Clark my choice)... I am scared now, neither one said they would vote for Obama, she is a naturalized US citizen from Ireland and hubby her of 53 years is from New York and over the years they vote in every election, like myself. We can only hope that the age block from 18-25 will turn out in November because this election to my mind will depend on the younger generation who do not see color and will vote for the person they want to be in charge of America, and the elderly will be stuck in a time warp because Obama is black.
End of story.
