It makes me uneasy.

1. on C-span this morning a Repub Strategist said that in open Primary states Repubs will be voting for

Obama...how many states have open Primaries 9?

it shouuld make EVERYONE uneasy....this has been the RW plan from the get go. Make Dems think they are in control feed them candy laced with toxins.

why do you think the MSM is making love to Obama....and so many Dems don't GET IT....so sad

[Renew Deal]

5. My boss is a repub and he says he'll vote for Obama over McCain.

I cannot understand it, but I'll take it.

[tyne]

2. Lot's of repubs

will vote for Obama. Why does that make you "uneasy"?

[DURHAM D]

9. Only in the primary - switch back for general.

They are fucking with the Dems. Some of my family members are doing this in Kansas tomorrow.
They are quite amused with themselves.

They would never, ever vote for a Dem in the general election.

[calico1]

3. A lot of them here in Ct voted for Lieberman.

Yes, it makes me uneasy too.

[grantcart]

4. and people cheering and people laughing it is shocking

[Cant trust em]

6. makes me feel great

He gets people to agree with us when they might not with someone else. The door to the democratic party is wide open. You've heard of come to Jesus meetings, this is like a come to Dem meeting.

17. You might want to take your screen name to heart.....n/t

[Cant trust em]

21. Trust republican politicians? no

trust republican people? sometimes. I've met a lot of people who are registered republicans who are totally liberal on certain issues. My aunt for example who is pretty fiscally conservative, but socially liberal. She's a doctor that is always talking about health care reform and making it more affordable for average citizens. Those are the kinds of people that we can bring into a coalition.

7. k/r

[splat]

8. They'd rather run against Obama, call him Hussein and win

Beware what you wish for.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

10. the RW Pnac and Turdblossom machine have had this planned since...

the Dem Convention...and you nailed it on the head

[Thrill]

18. They no doubt want Hillary....Don't fool yourself

their strategy vs. Hillary has been in the works for 10+ yrs

[DiamondJay]

20. Barack Hussein...i like the sound of that

and so will the republicans. they will get 527s against him on that. he will be another george mcgovern, or even al smith

[Bostonglobechicka]

11. this is a good thing isnt it? people naturally like obama, whats wrong with that?

[Clarkansas]

12. Go over to FR to see then Ann Coulter inspired "conservatives for Hillary" movement

and tell me how it makes you feel.

[tyne]

14. All I know is....

I belong to a LARGE bi-partisan board and there are lots of repubs/cons who are voting for Obama...especially if McCain wins. Many of them say that they respect him. I've known many of these people for years and they're not "pulling my leg". *shrug*

[Bostonglobechicka]

16. ive heard that aswell, they do respect him alot

[LiberalHeart]

13. Oh, swell. Just what we need: A Democratic prez elected by the GOP.

[tyne]

15. Just what we need.

A united United States of America.

[Thrill]

19. You're right its exactly what we need

And I'll take it. Obama and big majority in Congress. Thank you very much

[stillcool]

22. I'm sure it does...

everything about him seems to make you uneasy according to all your previous posts. But I agree with you. That whole idea of "unity" is preposterous!! Who would dare think that whites vs. blacks, left vs right, Christian vs Jewish vs Arab, rich vs poor, could possibly work together for the common good?

"What we need in the United States is not division. What we need in the United States is not hatred. What we need in the United States is not violence or lawlessness, but love and wisdom and compassion toward one another, and a feeling of justice toward those who still suffer within our country whether they be white or they be black."
Robert F. Kennedy, 1925-1968

"Whoever seeks to set one nationality against another, seeks to degrade all nationalities...Whoever seeks to set one religion against another, seeks to destroy all religion...Whoever seeks to set one race against another seeks to enslave all races....We are a nation of many nationalities, many races, many religions, bound together by a single unity..
Franklin Delano Roosevelt, 1882-1945
