22. I'm of the fairer sex, and voted for Obama.
My mom, on the other hand, voted for Hillary and said the only reason she was voting for her was because we wouldn't get a chance for another woman to be Pres. for probably 20 years.

That is the pussy vote.

If folks want to be ugly and talk about Obama "only getting the black vote", I wanna be ugly right back. I can't help myself. :evilgrin:

6. Just because they are black doesn't mean they will vote for Obama.
See I hate the double standards that Women should vote for HRC but blacks voting for Barack is bad.

17. Rachel pointed out tonight that Kerry did 1 point better in your
lovely state than Barack did. Some people can't win for losing, can they? :)

27. good try
Virgin Island caucus was in April in 2004. About 2 months after Kerry had pretty much won it.

10 days after the Virgin islands, Pennsylvania went for Kerry by 64 points to tell you how much the race had ended.

28. I was talking about LA.
Kerry did one point better in Louisiana so there is no need to insult the voters of that state or Senator Obama with stupidity.

29. once again, good try
Louisiana in 2004 was on March 9th. John Edwards dropped out on March 3rd.

Are you saying Kerry's victory in LA against nobody was the same as Obama's victory against Hillary?

32. I am not speaking about Clinton at all but of the black vote.
Christ on a crutch. Please attempt to read the posts you think you disagree with.

9. You seem to be implying Hillary can't win the black vote.
You might as well be saying, "well, of course she lost since they're all black!"

31. Yes, red states that no Dem can win in the general, so it doesn't matter.
Edited on Sun Feb-10-08 01:48 AM by Carrieyazel
With the sole exception of Iowa. And an Iowa general is a totally different thing than a Dem caucus.

I like how all of a sudden it's ok to be dismissive of the black vote. Not.

12. Black people don't count?
Interesting.

Also, I'm not sure if they're considered African American, but I don't think so.

20. Whoa, that's lopsided
And to think I thought Clinton would win there. I don't know much about the Virgin Islands. Anyone know why such a lopsided result?
