Remember the Obama fan club members said in Pa that Nobama had no chance of winning and spent 11 million to buy votes and still got creamed, but then come out and said, but he was behind by 25 and closed it to 10.
Well in NC he was suppose to win by 20 and only won by what a slim margin.
A win is a win right, but he still cannot carry the important states to beat McCain. He only wins the populist black states and the black of course are 90% of them voting for him because he is black. Shows this country is still divided and racist when people vote only base on color.
Do not count Hillary out people, she still has the lead.

I'd hardly call 14 points a "slim margin". Come on, get real

And how is that different from most women voting for another woman? People will TEND to vote for the person they can most identify with and who best understands them and understands their point of view. How exactly is that racist (or sexist for that matter)? That's part of the reason that white males have SO FAR always been President. If Hillary can overcome that trend and go on to win, then it's possible that Obama can as well.
Yes, SOME people will always vote against a candidate either because he (the candidate) is black or because she (the candidate) is a woman. That's a sad fact of life - but it is NO reason to give in to such people and not support that person because he is black or she is a woman. To follow that logic is become racist or sexist YOURSELF. It would be like not giving a person a sales job because "No one will buy from a black or a woman". Such action is clearly illegal and just plain wrong - and yet you are pushing the same logic for the selection of the most important job in the country.

How exactly is that?
Obama leads in number of states, in total delegates and in popular vote (even IF Hillary were to be given Florida AND Michigan).

Again with THE BLACK - do people not realize that is highly offensive? I guess not since the statement following that the blacks only vote for him because he's one of the black. I guess that's probably why the blacks only eat chocolate ice cream and only watch BET too. It's shows how this country is still divided and racist when people make comments like this.

Reason: Had to erase some very racist comments
I hear you friend. I actually can be a bit of a pompous azzhole. I admit my faults. I can't bring myself to vote for the best of the worst. if I vote in the general election, it will be for bob barr, or ron paul. the libertarain candidate has not been crowned yet. I want the best for the country, however we haven't had a good president in almost 100 years. calvin coolidge was my last favorite.
it's hard being a libertarian deist. I am hated by each of the parties!
And, believe me, I hear you! I wish there had been more candidates to choose from or who could have gained more support (Ron Paul or especially Dennis..... Kunich? Can't remember how to spell his name.
