FaxMeBeer:"I'll be honest, if Obama had lost, I'd be whining about racism (and I'd have a fair gripe)"
Thanks for the honesty, but that is some seriously twisted logic. Knowing now that a black man can win the nomination of a major Party, you still feel that you'd have a fair gripe on race? How could that gripe possibly be fair? It's just a charge, it's not a critique.
But, you are the problem that we'll face in November. Obama will, very likely, lose. He'll lose because his only professional experience is as a law clerk who never once argued a case himself. He's a failed community organizer and an unaccomplished legislator. He has chose bad friends, and bad advisers. But, people like yourself will say that he lost because he was black.
It's just sad, really, that you look at black people in this country and see someone who will not be allowed to succeed at the highest levels simply because of their race.
I'm curious, what is the difference between one saying he lost because he's black and one saying she lost because she's a woman. You seem to have very negative opinions on the one, but not the other. Hmmm....
"I'm the problem" we'll face in November? Because I am going to vote my interests, while the irrationally bitter go off and vote for McCain. Uhh...Really?
And to the jackass who likes to scream in caps, I didn't say there was NO sexism in the media. There is. It seems like your the one saying there's no RACISM in the media, which is wrong. I'm not saying that if Obama lost it would only be because of his race. Just as Hillary didn't lose only because of her sexism. My opinion, and maybe you can't deal with this, but she ran an awful campaign at every turn. McCain would have exposed her faulty blue collar background faster than you can say "wind surfing." She would have alienated Obama's support from the black community with the Mark Penn tactics. Then where would she be?
About to fail miserably, as she did with Health Care, her major issue. That's like saying the makers of Airborne are good on cold remedies.
