Subject: Obama can't win
The FACT is that Obama will have a much harder
time winning than Hillary or Edwards
because all the Repubs have to do to win is bring
up issues that polarize the races in the US.
If I was running the Repub campaign, I'd wait
till about mid September, and plant about twenty
or thirty dark skinned men with BIG voices in
an Obama speech audience. When the introductions
were over, and Obama was about to speak, I'd
have the one closest to the podium yell
"What about our slave reparation money?".
Then all twenty of them start chanting
"REPARATIONS, REPARATIONS, REPARATIONS, REPARATIONS"
over and over.
A large part of the crowd won't join in - it's
a sucker bet, some of them will.
Then the talking heads at FUX start blathering,
then NewsMax reports on the "secret deal"
to give five trillion dollars to anyone with
even a single slave ancestor, then ..... oh, hell,
anyone can write the rest of it. There
are dozens of issues like that, slave reparations are just
the nastiest one and the one that they'll use
just before the election.
Hillary has done the party no favor by NOT bringing
up this kind of extreme baggage,
she's handled Obama like a baby in diapers, and
that's why she's behind. That baby
better grow up fast, he's about to walk into
a boxing ring while he's still in diapers.
As for the whole Wright mess, man, I've lived
in the Deep South for a long time, and I've
known and worked for and with a number of very
well educated Blacks, and I've had them
argue the same things Wright was saying.
It would not surprise me a bit if Obama believed
quite a lot of it. it is VERY common.
Well, hope for a lotta wins in November, the
Repubs have
certainly poisoned their own well, that's a fact!
Better days,
MadSatyrist
