Three years ago, through pure stupidity (George Bush), Republican Administration handed the Democratic Party the 2008 election. Democratic Party leaders are determined to give it back by pussy-footing around with Hillary Clinton. Our esteemed Senator Clinton could care less about the people she is courting. Her veiled disparagement of the African American community is shameful. All she cares about is the office she believes is hers by Divine Right. Her campaign spurs the worst kind of racism. Her speeches are filled with fantastic claims of electability and the "people's will." Electabiity is code for "no intelligent person will ever vote for an African-American." And as for the people's will, they have spoken. Now she wants (elected officials) super-delegates to overturn the people's will. The nominations is Senator Obama's, not by Divine Right, but by the votes of the people (the only thing that is supposed to matter). Senator Obama, the nomination is yours. If the Democratic Party sees fit to steal it from you, I implore you to run as an Independent. The whole country needs a change for the bettter. That change is
Senator Obama

......I said that yesterday - after the WV results and her somewhat smug (that was my perception - someone else may perceive it different) speech. Why is she being treated with kidgloves? She has, by her own repeated proclamations, experience with Washington and has been around the political block many times - she should know there are winners and losers. She happens to be the loser - deal with it. Just like this spin about 'hardworking, white voters' walks the fine line of Racism - so could this 'voters without college degrees vote for Hillary' be spun in a less than desirable stereotype.
Oh, well - 3 more weeks and if I never see the mug of Terry McCauliffe again, it'll be too soon.

this primary season. Now, as New Yorker, I might even vote for her Republican opponent in the next election just because I believe Hillary does the party more harm than good.
