The real question should be....if Kerry was black....SHOULD he have one just because he was black?

I believe Kerry and Obama, even Bush and Cheney are all 9th cousins, twice removed. Makes sense the Democrats are sleeping with the Republicans.

I'm saying anyone has to like it but I think we would be incredibly naive if we thought this is not going to be a factor in this election.
It's sad that this issue is too non-politically correct to be discussed by the media really. I suppose the only question is: will the election energize more black racists or white racists? What a terrible thing for it to come down to. Although it looks right now that Obama has enough of a lead anyways.

Oh right, I suppose the corrupt worldly Republicans have so many lessons to learn from the spotless left. I really hope Obama isn't playing by the "queen's rules"-not even the U.K. goes by the queen's rules anymore. (sorry, little attempt at humor)

No one's "guna" do anything again, there was nothing sketchy the first time. Politics come in cycles, Obama is virtually guaranteed to win because people are tired of the current administration.

Sigh. Rolling stone is a left end of the Democratic Party editorial and full of poo. Dems lost 2004. Get over it already. They whine about polls being wrong in OH and conspiracies in one breath then talk about the Bradley Affect and how polls are wrong now.

You are probably going to win next Tuesday. Shut up and be a gracious winner for crying out loud. And, no, I am not moving to Europe if the cult leader wins. Unlike some idiot Hollywood freaks ca 2000.

Nah, if he was black he wouldn'ta been there.
Barak on the other hand is only there because he calls himself black. I say calls himself black because he is as white as he is black. It simply helps him more to play the race card. Thats one of many reasons he wont get my vote.
