Obama Supporters Driving Whites To McCain

Tonight's West Virginia Democrat presidential primary results are now finally making one thing clear.
Since the supporters of Sen. Barack can not beat opponents on real issues, they are putting up the race card in an attempt to win not only the Democrat presidential nod, but driving moderate whites right into the hands of the presumptive Republican nominee, Sen. John "F--- You" McCain.
And, it may make the difference in this election for Sen. "F--- You" McCain becoming the 44th president.
Sen. Hillary Clinton won an astounding 67% of West Virginia Democrat votes compared with Sen. Barack's pathetic 27%. Amazingly, former Sen. John Pretty Boy Edwards, long gone from the race, managed 6%.
West Virginia is a state that the Democrats have to win in November.
An amazing statistic is that no Democrat has won the White House without winning West Virginia since 1916.
And, judging from Sen. Barack's vote total, that is a bad sign for the Sen. Barack steamroller.
And, look at the states that Sen. Barack has lost.
California, New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and yes, Florida and Michigan.
Massachusetts has to hurt because much of the state Democrat establishment, led by the drunken sailor, Sen. Ted Kennedy, backed Sen. Barack.
All those states HAVE to go Democrat for Sen. Barack to win in November.
And, that may not be easy now that Sen. Barack and supporters have decided, that post-racial politics has not worked and will not work. Now, they are just openly pouring on the race issue in an attempt to drive white guilt.
It may work for Sen. "F--- You" McCain to say that he will run a "respectful" campaign and won't go down the race route. But, it will not work for the Sen. Barack gang. No, now that they have all but called those who vote against their guy racist, it will be very hard to bring them back in November.
And, maybe the message that they are really sending is that while Sen. Clinton may be as much of a socialist as Sen. Barack, at least she does not insult potential voters as Sen. Barack did in the infamous "bitter" comments at the San Francisco fundraiser.
At least Sen. Clinton did not and would not insult their religion, their right to bear arms (even though she would find a way to eventually put restrictions on gun ownership), and was a pretty good Boilermaker drinker.
No, these voters are going to remember how the Sen. Barack victory train derailed and how he really feels about this block of Democrat voters.
And, Sen. Barack is not going to make them up with historically low-turnout young voters and blacks. He needs them and is very dismissive of them all at once.
Since it is apparent that Sen. Clinton will not be the Democrat nominee, nor the vice-presidential nominee, she has no real interest in seeing Sen. Barack win the election. She will not go into the badlands of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Texas and try to woo the "bitter" voters to Sen. Barack's corner.
And, Sen. "F--- You" McCain can make a play for these voters without addressing the real reason that they will vote for him in the first place. That he does not insult them. That he really wants their vote.
And, in a strange way, the Democrats may lose these voters for quite a while unless they move away from outright socialism to the center.

Clinton won't seek the VP because when Obama loses, that would derail the Clinton train permanently. And, however ugly the mess will be, she will still try to pick up the pieces. When you want power that bad, you don't give up.

well i saw a pretty staggering number come out of the polling in w.va 64. i think 25% percent said that if hillbilly wasn't the nominee they would stay home in november. quite high i thought, because i was under the impression only conservatives would not be voting, but maybe the left could have this problem.....

If Obama is elected, there is a chance that he may be last African American elected President for a long time to come, especially once his far left views get turned into policy.

A former boss once told me that when someone has nothing else going for them, play the victim card.
