Obama's coalition IS larger in the Party, but is a minority in the general.

They can get away with murder now, but come Nov. they will need us.
I don't plan on being available. I'm done with this election completely.

True, and I was referring to the population of this board. Here Mr. Obama's supporters, fair and reasonable as well as rabid haters of his opponent, are in the majority.

So we shouldn't expect to hear any more comments from you till after Nov? Seriously, some of you guys really need to take a long hard look at your motivations for not voting for Obama. I really get the feeling that alot of people are actually relieved to have any excuse not to vote for the black guy, even tho "His supporters called me names" is pretty lame.

I'm sick of race being brought up by some of you guys as a way to say WE (the Hillary supporters) are the racists.

Some of Hillary's supporters are, and I'm sure there are some Obama supporters who are, too.

Blanket statements either way don't fly with me.

Doc, Cosmic, and anyone else who cares to listen: We know it's not all of you. Anyone who says it is is not being truthful.

Then stop with the, "I wont vote for Obama because his supporters were meant to me and called me names" it just makes you look ignorant. You are either gonna vote for him in Nov because you think he is the best candidate of the two or you are not. Don't whine and act like a baby because someone who supports Obama over Clinton called you a name.

This excellent site has an excellent Search engine.

RK77 was not the only poster outraged by jdanton's comparison of Barack Obama to Adolph Hitler. At least five or six other posters, maybe more, were equally outraged.

Hillary Clinton's own actions have made her fair game for unflattering satire.

It certainly would.......if I thought or even implied that. Sure I get sick of being called names and yes I have mentioned it, but you go way to far by blatantly lying to get a thumbs up from your race baiting friends.

Right....so I guess that makes it OK for you to do so now. Uh huh, right.
