Folks that are so intellectually lacking that they base their choices on how much melanin is in someone's skin are in a panic. The forewarded crap I get is scary. This is so frightening to them, that many of them are willing to vote for a man who wants to continue sending sons and daughters to fight and die in a war based on a lie. They are willing to vote for a man who wants to continue the failed economic policies that have the middle and lower in such dire straits. In these circumstances, it is critically important that Hillary follow up on her strong endorsement. Those of us who understand the numbers know that the number is 7%. That is the percentage of the likely voters that will not vote for a person of color. If Obama has to overcome that, AND disaffection of anything more than a neglible amount of the Clinton supporters, and assuming the McCain people run a great campaign, we have a problem. I believe that as folks come to know Obama, he can counter a great deal of this, especially if he is smart in the issues he raises, and in who he lets it be known that will be in his administration.

"Zach", you are not anonymous as you think you are. And you are a low life. You have confirmed what I always thought about you.
