How many southern states will Obama win when the 527's
run these videos of his pastor 24/7?

I know many of you will say that you agree with what he says, I am not asking if you agree or

if you think that to disagree with what he is saying makes someone a racist.

I am asking how many southern states will vote for him over McCain after this is wrapped around his neck.

1. More than Hillary.
Just the mention of her name raises the blood pressure of the average redneck by 20 points.

8. Virginia, Missouri, Florida, ..
Maybe Arkansas? Texas would be asking for a lot. This is going to be a year in the crapper for the Republican Party.

14. You're deluding yourself.
Case in point: The Dean "Scream."

The Dukakis "helmet" photo. The Dukakis debate response.

Nahhhhh. It won't stick. Nobody will pay any attention to it. None at all. No sireeeeeeee.

5. Brilliant.
I can see this happening. Guilt by association has been used against Hill.

10. We haven't even seen the half of it yet
Guilt by association has been the way the R's slime the D's for decades and it freaking works.

This guy is an albatross around Obama's neck.

7. Have been trying to get that message across since the getgo
Guess there is something liking in my effectiveness. I drop by the Legion Halls and the VFW Halls, here in TampaBay, and have yet to find an Obama vote.

9. He's not going to win even one southern state
And that's why we're going to lose the general. He's also going to lose Ohio, PA and Fl

Hell, at least Clinton can win Arkansas! And she's got a fighting chance in Ohio, PA but probably not Fl.

This should be the easiest presidential race in the past 50 years for us to win. Instead, we're stuck with choosing between one unelectable candidate (Obama) and one who if, she can win, is going to be in a bitter fight for her life.

This election should have been a cakewalk and I'm so frigging pissed that it's even going to be close!

13. His non-denunciation of McClurkin was an attempt to
inoculate himself, and in his mind embrace more "traditional" churches. (in my view)

He may try more of that.

15. Nothing. It's too late.
He could have walked away from Wright, loudly and visibly, years ago. THAT would have inoculated him from the issue. If he does it now, it's way too little, way too late.

17. South votes republican, question is how many swing and blue states will he lose
when the videos run 24/7

Florida will go red for sure

The more I see this going into the MSM the more likely the map is going to look like a Reagan win
