Reply #45: Willie Horton times 10

[Hawkowl]

The despicable shit that the republicans will throw at Obama would make this the dirtiest campaign in modern history. Perhaps you are too young to remember the Willie Horton ads that sunk Dukakis. Or do you remember the disgusting push poll against McCain in the 2000 primary calling his adopted Bangladeshi daughter an illegitimate black daughter? I think Obama would lose the entire south, Indiana, Missouri, and quite a few border states just on this country's vicious racism alone. He will have an uphill battle indeed. A true test of character.

I think Obama is the rethuglicans second choice for dem nominee. Doesn't mean we should give a rat's ass who THEY want at all. The whole question in the OP is stupid. Dems can't win by doing what rethuglicans think. Period.

Vote your conscience and let the chips fall where they may.
