#7  "We don't wanna play into Republican hands by crippling either one of them, and making this race something it's not."" Clinton said, referring to Democratic frontrunners Illinois Sen. Barack Obama and New York Sen. Hillary Clinton

I don't ever hear Republican candidates talk about Democrats. Everytime I hear a Democrat candidate they have something to say about the Republicans. Just this morning I heard hillarity mention that 1'the democrats are just one big family' and 2'we dont treat each other like the republicans treat each other in their party'. This was about the time they showed a past horrible interview with romney. Wife fired hillarity after the crying game and just shook her head (she hates OB after his stupid Greensburg comments) and is considering voting Republican. I told her there is still a lot of time yet before the elections. Me, I'd like to see Thompson/Steele.

#5  Obama hasn't taken the bait and it's blown up in their faces.
Time to move onto Plan B, mysterious accidents...

...except when stereotyping, scapegoating, demonizing Republicans or anyone else who blocks our way to power.

Fixed it for you.

#3  Bill, Hillary and their advisor's have 'run' the numbers, and know thus: Race Baiting would divide the Black vote (ie: 1)Barak, 2)stay home [in protest], and 3)revenge by crossing over to the Republicans [the enemy of my enemy is my friend; thing]). This would cement Hillary's support with proud American Whites especially with women, and without crying again, and swoosh her straight to the 'Big House'! No wonder the 'race' card is the biggest black trump card in the deck; it wins over the 'gender' card and the 'class' card!! The Nation's only inward wars (civil, indian, etc) could not be cured of it's tantalizing effects to detriment. My recommendation to Mr. Obama is thus: should the gracious kind hearts of a majority of white and black Americans propel him to the Presidency; keep it by selecting a black Vice President, and 12 female Cabinet Secretarys!

#2  The real irony is President Johnson was indeed responsible for much of the progress made in the area of civil rights during his tenure. Unfortunately, he was motivated by power, simple greed, and voting-block factors not too much different from than the donk politicians of today.
