I doubt Obama is electable in the fall, but I KNOW Hillary isn't.

I didn't get the impression there was a big surge for Obama when I was in the southeast part of the state around Easter. It was non-stop MSM politics. People are sick of it.

I think there's a lot of misunderestimation going on about Obama.

Rendell & Hillary are right. He can't win a national. There simply aren't enough guilt laden whites out here.......thank god.

"Rendell & Hillary are right. He can't win a national. There simply aren't enough guilt laden whites out here.......thank god."

Fortunately you don't have to be a "guilt laden White" to know he is the best candidate of the three the system offers. I could of re-registered as a Democrat to vote for him in the primary, but I didn't. I am a Green, not a Democrat. I ultimately want someone fare better then Obama to be POTUS; someone who doesn't belong to either half of the current one party running things.

The system is co-opted and broken. It does not run as the founders intended and has become owned by too few of the wrong people. But I will vote for the least objectionable candidate and keep hoping that martial law and a war against "American insurgents" doesn't develop.

I vote for the candidate I feel is the most vulnerable to pressure from dissidents to make right choices. I got over thinking I would see a competent POTUS that is the true choice of the American people in an unmanipulated election long ago.

I put my choice out here mostly in response to bullying of people supporting Obama and ad hominem attacks against them instead of people arguing in good faith without the character assassination.

As far as race goes, it's importance has always been over exaggerated. When I look at any person I see a human being first and foremost. Race is only as important as bigotry drives it to be, nothing more.

I am glad he is doing so well in Pennsylvania, but I don't trust the system and won't believe it until I see the tallies come in. I believe McCain will get the same manipulate the vote attempt at a win Bush got twice and which was used to marginalized and neutralize Ron Paul whom I would very much support over Obama despite strong ideological differences I have with him.

If those in power could no longer twist the result of the election, then Bush would keep it from happening, they do not intend on giving up power without a fight. And if Obama gets in and shows the same fierce independence and unwillingness to accede to the desires of this shadow government group running things, they would shoot him just as brutally and quickly as they did John Kennedy.

I know how unstable and volatile the situation is. But I am going to stay in there nominally supporting the process going on, because when and if the facade comes off and martial law is declared I want to survive the first round-ups of people to the FEMA camps. And I want to make sure I do because my core notion is the Constitution and the ideas behind it should not ever go quietly.

I am prepared to survive, and to fight for what I believe. But I am not going to belittle and browbeat people still trying to make the system work. Working through problems and bringing elections back to the people for them to make the choice is preferable to seeing martial law and an insurgency develop with people dying and imprisoned as they try to keep the revolution of 1776 alive.

That is why I take the stance I do. It isn't because Obama has African heritage to him. Race and gender should never keep someone from being president, conversely they should never be elected solely to put someone of a different race and gender then has been in that office either.

What separates Obama from the others? This is the argument we've been having since RP did his duck and cover.

very nicely expressed, Mike (your entire post but that in particular)

That's why I hope he picks a good running mate. Jim Webb is my choice.
