Wachin' Paula's CNN townhall meeting now
Anybody see that Black Dude from Racine?

I thought he was gonna bust out with a "George Bush can KISS my black ass" at any moment.

Crowd is BOOING the Republican moron defending Bush.

He said Bush was handed the WORst economy since the depression from Clinton...placed booed him bigtime.

This is great!

6. I can't begin to understand the undecideds.
The people they just showed in a clip are both black and live in Racine, Wisconsin and they don't have a clue who they will vote for.
WTF/

7. U missed it
The guy I was talking about was in the audience and got up to the mic and said Bush has done NOTHING for the unenployed blacks in Racine. Was not the clip you saw.

12. That is why CNN chose to show them..
They re trying to help out Bushie with the black vote.. They were probably the only two blacks that said they were undecided there.

29. "Bush inherited the worst economy since the Depression."
ummmm--the economy that Clinton inherited from Poppy wasn't all that great either... and going forward the 'inherited' economy is a mess

meanwhile - bush* inc have resurrected the "tax & spend liberal" phrase

how does "cut and waste conservative" sit with you?

17. Just had a question on No Child Left Behind.
Shrub's rep lied his way thru the answer... silence. Then Tad Devine said Kerry will fully fund it and talked about how many million $ that will mean to Wisconsin schools, plus three thousand more teachers. Crowd erupts in applause.

18. kind of surprising
I've been to Racine, my aging parents on there.

i think they bused these people in!

in general, it's a working class blue collar town and pretty Republican
really. Lots went to iraq to support the war and so on.

So, getting this group to swing left would be a coup.

PS. Racine is also one ground zero in terms of pollution, but racine
doesn't seem to really scream bloody murder about it.

22. I can't believe that someone actually said that about the economy that
Clinton handed Bush!!! Do they think people are that dumb?! These people lie at the drop of a hat. They are totally incapable of the truth. They don't care about truth as they fondle their crosses. They would rather kill the people they are talking to than have to appeal to them. They wish to god there was no such messy thing like democracy to stop their power. These people are evil to the bone.

23. Tad is doing great
Tad Devine is kicking a** and is hitting the right points quickly and with the right aggresion. If this is a preview of tomorrow, we are in good shape.

25. Does the audience get to make noise tomorrow?
I know they are allowed to ask fake questions, but is applause, laughter, catcalling, etc. allowed?
