7. Agreed this does not help HRC
AT ALL

Neither did the wonderful demonstration of ahem support at the Saturday meeting

Thankfully most folks were outside in the sun, and not like us, political junkies watching a rules meeting in our jammies

2. I gave up on Randi ages ago
She jumped the shark long before this primary season began, and has been swimming in the tank ever since.

That will bring Harriet to her 20 minutes... well over her quota!

If he ran the toothless racists from West Virginia, he'll definitely have Harriet.

Can't wait to hear Mike Malloy's take on it as well.

37. Let's be honest, how many people do you think
actually saw the proceedings? And how many folks actually are paying attention right now?

Chances are most folks she is close to, don't know about it, and if they do... she showed it to them.

And her age bracket is afraid, really afraid, and that is what she is letting you see... FEAR.

30. Friday night I had dinner with 3 women in their 70s and 80s
(I love having dinner with them, because it makes me the "kid" in the group) who would - to a point - agree with Harriett except they all plan to bite the bullet and vote for Obama - they're even less happy about voting for him than I am. They have all be active in the party for years, (one goes back to 1948) and all of them feel like Clinton was robbed. Don't discount the women who feel this way, Obama and his supporters need to find a way to bring them back into the fold or we will get stuck with McCain.

35. Part of the problem, not that many will openly say it,
is actually fear of having a black president.

I've talked with people of that demographic... and once you press it... that is partly the issue

I also expect the following to happen

Obama will win, but not by the numbers he should

Why?

There will be many folks who will tell you they voted for Obama, but in reality voted for anybody but Obama,

I don't discount that either.

And what Harriet said, a less than adequate black man, is exactly THAT speaking

On the bright side, he brought in many younger folks who may see skin color, but it is not that critical for them

Oh and expect the RNC to push the black fear in ways we have not seen in years, probably decades.

43. And that's it in a nutshell
Never mind that Obama was raised by a single white woman -

talk about cognitive dissonance!

44. It is the color of the skin... yes, sadly, it is that simple
and to a point I feel sorry for these folks, but their world is about to crash and burn

The order they are used to is gone

48. With 2 of these women I'd drop over dead if race was an issue for them
Edited on Mon Jun-02-08 03:15 PM by dflprincess
the third one - it would surprise me - but I don't know her as well. One of these women's mother was a sufferagette and I do believe that they just want to see a woman president. I'm sure race is an issue with some, but remember, these 3 are going to vote for Obama. He just doesn't make their toes tingle.

55. No, that's not true
Edited on Mon Jun-02-08 04:15 PM by OzarkDem
Women who have been active Dems since the 1950's and 1960's also were on the front lines of the civil rights battles when few were willing to do so. They withstood criticism then for trying to end racism.

To accuse them of racism when many worked hard for civil rights is not just wrong, its an insult to the Democratic Party.

The only two ways I can make sense of it are to either believe that she was entitled or that she was undone by conspiracy, but I don't see a case for either.
