So you saying that Obama won't win?

No, I'm not necessarily saying that.  I'm saying that it's a political strategy the Clintons are using, but not how everybody is seeing it.  Bill and Hillary are leaking these things in no uncertain terms, to scare democrats into thinking that Barack CANNOT win.  If the race card gets played now, it will plant seeds of doubt in people's minds, because they'll think "oh, the republicans are racist bigots who would never vote for a black guy"... therefore in the primaries, dems will vote for Hillary because she in their mind would have a better chance of beating the republican nominee than a black guy that paranoid dems think no republican would vote for.  The reason they are doing this is to remove the ominous assumption that Hillary is very polarizing and no republican alive would ever vote for her... so in kind they're sneakily showing by playing the race card that no republican would vote for a black guy.

Of course it's all bullshit.  Obama is much more electable than Hillary.

I started the blog saying that Obama introducing actual numbers, something Hillary accuses Obama of NOT doing, and her campaign pushed that out the news on going the racial route.

this is why racism/prejudice will never end...fucking people mainly government and media, seperate people into groups and shit. i understand demographics but MLK dream was to move to a color-blind society...race and gender should never be an issue that is relavant. People who vote for obama just cuz he's black are idiots, same with hillary and women
