We had such high hopes for you Barack. Sure, we wanted you to lose. We won't pretend otherwise. However, many of us were looking forward to a spirited campaign, based on hope and change and renewal and all that good stuff.It would have been a welcome respite from all the venom, vitriol and race baiting that so typifies your party. Ah, but it was not to be, was it Barack?
Everyone knows about the hate spewed by your preacher, we see no need to recount it again.
We also (h/t to Robert) know that you were right there, nodding in agreement.
The Democratic party may be going through the first stages of an exorcism. The class warfare, divide and conquer politics of personal destruction, created by LBJ and perfected by Bill and Hillary Clinton, are now starting to become visible to all.
Though this campaign has had more twists and turns than any in recent memory, It is difficult to see Obama surviving this. The Convention will decide the nominee and the convention is months away. There will be a lot of bleeding between now and then. So, unless something really amazing happens, the Democrats will either nominate a black man, whose mentor is a pathological racist, or a woman who will be the first challenger in the history of polling with an unfavorable number over 50%
The Democratic Generic advantage has vanished and the RNC is cleaning the DNC's clock in fundraising. I'd say the Dems are toast.
