My apologies to the world..Fast Eddie Rendell was right...
too many people in this state cannot vote for a black man. They love their Pittsburgh Steelers bashing their heads together, but god forbid that a brilliant black man run for office. Anyone want to adopt a well educated couple? We're looking to relocate out of redneck heaven.

5. You know, I never have been mean on here...
Hillary and Bill have run such a positive race, you have every right to bash me. Shame, shame, shame on me.

7. My day started out with the 25 Obama signs I put out being
stolen last night. The few Hillary signs were left there. Excuse me for being a little bitter.

3. Well, if they're that ignorant, they'll probably believe hate radio
and Fox "News" and vote for McCain in November too. So this bodes very badly for us this election. There won't be any coat tails either :-(

4. You did your job and that's what's important, we will never
be able to appease and excuse those who can't extend out of their racist, bigoted comfort zone.

Obama knew the reality and he succeeded in what he set out to do. He is waking up the youth, he is snapping back to reality those Republicans who have been in a fog, so don't despair my friend.

8. Why do you think her campaign was playing to the racist redneck card so hard...
Edited on Tue Apr-22-08 10:16 PM by Robeson
...in your state? Her last hope was playing to that demographic. Her whole campaign in Pennsylvania was divide and conquer. Classic southern racial politics, played to a tee. Hell, she was even going to obliterate brown people towards the end.

9. There are many ignorant people in the state.
But you have that everywhere. What confounds me is the overwhelming union support for Mrs. NAFTA. THAT is where Obama lost, not due to racist idiots.

10. I am frankly surprised that the good folk of Pennsylvania
apparently approved of Sen. Clinton after that embarrassing lie about Bosnia.

I guess I was wrong that that would do her in.

14. uhhh, Pennsylvania is racially progressive
You think they won't vote for a black man in Pennsylvania? Just wait til we see the racial voting breakdown in Indiana, the Mississippi of the North. That state is still full of Klan strongholds; I noticed Clinton made a point of stopping of in Valparaiso, whose only claim to fame was as a mob town and sundown town hostile to blacks. Obama is going to get clobbered in Indiana.

15. The irony of playing this card each time Obama loses a DEM PRIMARY is lost on Obamites...
Even if we accept the BS excuse that California, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Hampshire, etc. are more racist than Wyoming, Maine, Wisconsin, and Alaska what does it say about Obama if he can't win Democratic primaries in these states? If he can't win Dem primaries how much red stuff are you drinking to think he can win the general election in these states where there will be more racists as a share of the electorate? Get real. He got beat fair and square. If you accept the lame excuse then you should be asking for him to withdraw for the good of the party and defeating McSame.

16. Freedomofspeech, come to California
Even though Hillary won, this isn't a redneck state. She won based mainly on name recognition, b/c people didn't know Obama that well when the primary was held. He'd win if the primary were held today.

17. Move east, to one of the non-redneck counties
that went for Obama. Chester comes to mind. (that's my home county)

But I moved overseas a couple years ago, it's highly recommended. :hi:
