Let's what to get a few more polls out of this state similar things before we dissolve into fits of joys.

That said, this is excellent news indeed.

fair enough. but he never said that the north was free of racism. he just said that there were many, older, racist voters in the south. the NYT article never mentioned the phenomenon of northern racism---only southern.

you are right---there are northerns who won't vote for a black guy. but the NYT article wasn't about them---it was about the south. when the NYT writes an article about northern racism there will be plenty to say about that as well.

people need to calm down. instead of taking every opportunity to tout your outrage hard-on, take a step back and dial down the tension. it's worth doing.

um, what are you talking about? he said many older voters in the south will not vote for obama because he is black, and that this phenomenon is racism.

how is this wrong?

Because Obama doesn't need to give her this to win over her supporters.

I think Hillary's main problem is that she's fresh out of leverage. Her supporters are flocking to Obama in the latest polls---two of which have him up by double-digits.

I'll bet she gets some of her demands, but not most. She'll get that primetime speaking slot, but I doubt any amount of pleading by Obama will encourage his donors to pony up for her debt---if only because his donors want to use that dough to take on McCain and help downticket Dems get elected. Hillary's debt is simply not a priority right---the election is. At the end of the day, she'll prolly have to take 10M of her 130M fortune and payoff the vendors she's stiffed. Cry me a river.

Hillary is done. MJ, stop posting about her.

Moving along...

I agree with Greg. I these operative turn out to be backstabbers, their reputations will be destroyed.

It's Obama's party now and everybody knows it. Even the Clintons.

i don't believe it.

obviously i think obama should play hard in GA--and everywhere--but i've got to think this poll is an anomaly of some sort.

if we get a few more polls saying this i'll begin to believe.

Will Dodd filibuster? Highly doubtful.

Though I may weep for joy if he did so.

We've fallen on black days.
