Barack Obama's Unfair Tactics!!
A caller to the Randi Rhodes show said he disapproved of Obama's tactics just like he did Clinton's. Randi asked him, "What are Obama's "tactics?"

Caller: "politeness"

16. Nail, meet head ...
we need to rise above the muck that the GOP will try to drag everyone down into.

Who knows, maybe Gramps will pick HRC as his VP.

3. That's a tough one
I thought politeness went out with the Civil Rights Act. What the hell is with people, being all 'polite'. Don't they know it's 2008?

5. Doing nothing while his supporters make up bullshit about the Clintons being racists
And claming, without any evidence, that the Clinton campaign was responsible for that photo of him in African garb.

21. Obama insisted that the fairy tale comment was some how racial. It wasn't.
It was clearly a comment about the Iraq war which had no racial overtones at all.

22. Not trying to flame, but can you provide a link?
I just don't recall having heard Sen Obama state it like that. I may well be wrong, and I know others framed it as such, but just wondering if the Senator himself actually said it.

23. That's the thing, Obama has his supporters say it for him
Axelrod and Plouffe forced this issue like crazy after New Hampshire. That wasn't a story that happenned on its own...it was pressed by the Obama camp. Looking at that comment through a racial lense was not a reasonable interpretation. It was the beginning of the racial flare up and laid the groundwork for what happened in South Carolina.

I appreciate your not flaming. I know, this board has gotten totally out of control lately.

He's got the perfect temperment for POTUS.
