19. When you're out of work,
even Republican operatives' money looks good -- they're paid protesters, I'd bank on it.

24. It certain doesn't hurt him.
Edited on Fri Sep-19-08 11:57 AM by Phx_Dem
It pisses off African Americans and whites are scratching their heads saying WTF? I don't understand how whomever organized this thought it would hurt Obama. Republicans have been trying to make him into a "scary Black man," and this just showed that he is the exact opposite of that. The so-called "scary Black men" just protested against Obama with KKK signs!

Weird and dumb, but Obama couldn't have handled it better, "Okay, see ya'll later." :hi: And the crowed cheers and waves bye bye.

Typical republican bullshit stunt. At least Obama lets ANYONE into his meet-ups - unlike McCain's carefully screened and choreographed audiences.

You'd have to be either an idiot or an asshole to buy what they're selling.
