Gotta love it when the Dems are imploding over race. :lol2:
I'll have to admit this is the first time I can ever recall agreeing with Geraldine Ferraro on anything. But what she says is true - the Dems have a novelty to toy around with and they're too stupid to look past his color and bullsht speeches.
There's no way in hell a white man with no experience could have risen to the top like Obama has. Such hypocrites. :x
=====================================
PHILADELPHIA — The Democratic presidential contest was jolted Tuesday by accusations surrounding race and sex, set off by remarks from Geraldine A. Ferraro that Senator Barack Obama had received preferential treatment because he is a black man.
Ms. Ferraro, the former congresswoman and vice-presidential candidate who backs Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, told The Daily Breeze, a newspaper in Torrance, Calif.: “If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position. And if he was a woman of any color, he would not be in this position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is caught up in the concept.”
She made the comments last week, but on Tuesday, the Obama camp latched on to them, calling them outrageous and demanding that Mrs. Clinton repudiate them....
