WV being bashed on CNN.com by Obama fans (Charleston: home, to buy)

[scorpy01]

I just blogged about the WV bashing and why I think WV is leaning toward Hillary. (just my opinion, of course. No scientific evidence. )

I think Obama got to the lead because the Power People in the Democratic party don't want more scandal, which seems to follow the Clintons. They saw Obama as safer.

Lord let us pray!!! Obama prayed so hard, his preacher is working feverishly throwing the match for him!
Obama can't do anything too overt like smack barbara bush in the butt at a nascar rally, or start breakdancing on a stage, but he can use the wrong fork and order the wrong wine. That won't stigmatize too long. The average joe forgets those. The sins of reverse racism the pastor can carry alone when obama eyerolls years from now.

Since when has anyone ever heard of a relatively young politician saying- vote for me now, you only get one chance, or I'm outta here?????

We've already voted here in Virginia (I wasn't pleased with the results) but I saw this and just had to vent.

Feel free to add to this post because I am somewhat confused over the constant Hillary/Obama race/sex card battle...

I was having this conversation at the office with some co-workers the other day but we basically had to stop because it was about to turn into a shouting match. My question is this..

Why is it when somebody supports Hillary for a variety of different reasons they are "racist" and "uneducated" yet I hear certain people all the time say in one way or another they are going to vote for Obama because "we need a brother in the white house not a white woman." How is that not racist or sexist on their part?

I just don't get it, I am about the most non-racist person one can find and I don't see how my support for Hillary makes me an evil person. Just because I personally can see through Obama's promises of change and realize he has nothing to back it up doesn't mean I am racist and heading to the next available white supremacist meeting.

I just don't know why O'Bama threw in the towel in West Virginia. That's not the fighting Irish spirit.

The idea about this being a trial run for Obama has legs...but remember this children....Mr. MoJo will be running too in 2012...as the junior senator from Wv.

Remember where you heard it...ties to the Kennedy machine and everything...

Because to debate the issue intelligently requires thought and effort while calling each other names is easy and puts the other person on the defensive. It's a tactic that children use frequently.

Usually, children use this banter on the playground.

Wondering what would make MOJO aim beyond if he's so thoroughly mired in nepotism scandal at this juncture in his career. Keep it up, he'll have to worry about the chair he's got, not having to be politely escorted out from behind the desk.

Mojo comes through on his promises, that will be quite a resume to post. Reversing 100 yr trends is nothing short of miraculous.
