Do or die for Obama
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
It was do-or-die time for Barack Obama. If he hadn’t won South Carolina, as now projected, his momentum would have slowed to a crawl and he’d have been quite unlikely to win any other states.
Conversely, since he has won S.C., he has a few days to try to regain the trust of some white voters, who were either chased off in S.C. by Bill Clinton’s race talk or dispirited by the ugliness between Obama and Hillary Clinton and turned to Edwards.

Yes, and it’s die time for Ku Klux Klinton if she finishes third to Edwards.
Bwa.
There won’t be no recovering from that.

Whatever the black voting population is , is what he’ll receive.
Given the replacement rates for blacks vs. whites, in about 2 election cycles there will be enough blacks to elect their own candidate.
Get ready for a country run like Atlanta, DC and Detroit. For shizzle reparations beeeeeeeoooottttch!
Snoop Dogg 2012!

Good, and hopefully when Snoop Dogg gets elected in 2012 he will make the white man pay for his sins. Let’s not stop at reparations. Where’s the 40 acres and the mule. Where’s the compensation for Native Americans being exploited. Let’s make it happen.

OK here we go. Ray Goff speaks the truth. Obomba’s main goal will be to stick it to whitey and those like Cynthia Tucker will happily support the agenda.

It’s a real shame that we live next door and work with a lot of these racists on these blogs. By the way they falsely conduct themselves in daily life, one would never know that they could make such ignorant and racist statements such as Ray Goff’s comments. The Ray Goffs of the world will NEVER reveal their real names…they simply like to release their racist fury in these blogs and hide. NEVER will such racist comments as made on this blog be made to an African American’s face. Such cowards….and yes Obama or Hillary will have my vote….believe that!

Sure would be nice to see Her Majesty,the Hilderbeast, lose big in s.c. Maybe she could cry again. I hear she has moved on to Tenn. tonight knowing that Obama has cleaned her clock.

At least blacks can no longer say they do not judge by the color of one’s skin. They are every bit as rednecked as any whites who won’t vote for people of color.
We are no further along in race relations today than the day MLK was shot. Whether black or white we still judge by skin color, and that includes Jay Bookman and Cynthia Tucker.

Well Ray Goff, if blacks populate to elect a black president; he could not do worse than the white ones that have been running the country, governments, and charities.
US government = white man (George Bush) Enron scandal= white man California government financial disaster = white man (Pete Wilson) High gas prices = oil companies (Exxon, BP, Chevron) = (white man) Cigarettes = cancer = high medical cost = white man All bank scandals = white man Every major war = white man Adjustable mortgage loan crises = white man Stock market crash 1987 = white man

Ray Goff is a Ku Klux Klinton supporter, he obviously took the wrong turn to the white power rally.
Ever wonder why democrats are the ones that impose their politically correct rules of conduct on everyone else? It’s because they need them, they fully understand how many bigots there are in their party and are trying to keep them quite.
But when heap big Chief Billy starts spewing that old Ku Klux Klown talk, then the cat is definitely out of the “bag.”
Watch as they try to “heal” the wounds that they inflicted.
On themselves.

Surely, the Clinton’s feel jilted by black voters in SC. But, they undoubtedly thought they had the black vote all but captured on the basis of Bill’s “Black President” tag. Just goes to show that blacks vote black when they have a choice. Too bad for Obama that blacks still only account for about 14% of the total US population. He’s gonna need lots of white support to make it to the White House.

By the way, I wonder how Cynthia will vote? Gotta be a terrible conflict between a woman and a black. What say Cynthia? You still with Hillary? Or, will you tell us?
