All the high flying racial rhetoric in the world can't gloss over the fact that
28% of Hillary Clinton supporters plan to vote for McCain against Obama. There's an
online grassroots movement to get Hillary supporters to vote for McCain now that Obama is the official Democratic candidate.
As much as I want to see Obama defeated and as much as I'm going to begrudgingly vote for the liberal Republican McCain, I can't help but have a sour taste in my mouth over the Democrat swing voters who will help swing the election in the Republican's favor.
McCain may be liberal by any objective measure, but when you throw Obama and Hillary into the mix he comes out looking like a shining bastion of Conservative values by comparison. From issues like Abortion and Intelligent Design to religious freedom McCain can't be more opposed to Clinton. They fall on completely opposite ends of their narrow political spectrum.
Obama is a near perfect match for Hillary's policies. Aside from being Muslim and even MORE eager to abandon Iraq than Clinton, he's pretty much a black male version of Hillary.
The Liberals who've been supporting Clinton have been the same people demanding we clog our court system with trials for Iraq enemy combatants. They're the same morons who want to open diplomatic discussions with terrorist states like Iran and refer to Islam as the "religion of peace." Their overtly pro-Muslim stance makes it impossible to think Obama's murky religious credentials are the reason they refuse to back him.
Why are so many Liberals refusing to back Obama when they were backing Hillary?
It's not politics, there's little difference between them.
It's not religion, they're so pro-Muslim some of them would give up their daughters to be an oil baron's third wife.
Can it be gender? Nope, because McCain, the person they say they'll vote for, is a man.
That only leaves one thing. Race.
28% of Hillary supporters refuse to vote for a black man. They consider race more important than their alleged value of "Abortion rights" or even the war in Iraq. In 2008, 28% of LIBERALS are still so mired in racial hatred that they'll let it act as a trump card to literally every other issue they consider important.
Before he turned against the party, I would have voted for Powell. There are plenty of black men who, if they ran, I would vote for them. Clinton supporters are a different story. If Hillary put on black face, you'd be hard pressed to tell her and Obama apart. It's clear that "Keeping darkie down" is the single most important issue to a large percentage of Hillary supporters.
I wonder if we'll see any dippy hippies at KKK rallies? They clearly have comparable views on race relations.
