It's the "white house" because of the color of the paint on the outside, not the people on the inside. If the person is qualified to be President, I don't care if he or she is purple with yellow polka-dots. I guess you're one of Hillary's racist supporters. Good luck with that. The rest of us will move on into the 21st century. What’s the problem with a black person in the white house?

But I don't care for politics. I care about what is right and what is wrong, what is true and what is false. I don't think you need a political science degree to be able to vote your conscience.

]]> Comment on Big night for Obama by ryptide http://www.ryptide.com/2008/05/07/big-night-for-obama/#comment-307 ryptide Wed, 07 May 2008 13:15:22 +0000 http://www.ryptide.com/2008/05/07/big-night-for-obama/#comment-307 I think we've crossed the threshold where Michigan and Florida can be seated without it affecting the outcome as well. The rules committee (a lot of whom support her) will be meeting soon to discuss that. I think Obama will be willing to deal because the delegate count will already be a majority for him. Her opportunities are limited and I really think she's just waiting for a misstep and may try to trip him up. I don't think she has any interest in being VP, so burning bridges isn't something she's concerned about. She acted all magnanimous last night with the "I will work for the nominee" bit, but I just don't see it. I hope I'm proved wrong today or tomorrow and she steps aside, but I just don't see it happening. I think she'll stay to the bitter end. As for moving the goal posts, it is a lot like Bush and Iraq in my opinion, and the administration's definition of success.

It was a great night for Obama. After last night (if it wasn't before) would be a gracious time for Clinton to exit. However, I don't think she will. She's willing to tear the Democrats apart for some slight chance (in the end, for nothing). Obama will win, the numbers don't lie. She needs over two thirds of the Superdelegates in order to bring the gap closer (which won't happen unless the Democrats want to alienate and outrage the voters). Her cash and time is running out. Every primary she moves the goal post. She's delaying the inevitable. She needs to be courteous and admit defeat. I know I will respect her more if she did. I completely agree.

But hey, they get him for things he *didn't* say, too. So what do you expect? I think it has a little bit to do with the different campaigns they are running, too. Obama has tried to remain above the fray, and defends himself when necessary. Clinton has been on the attack with negative ads for a long time. I have noticed.

I'm looking at Google and Yahoo now and nothing. In fact, first I heard of this was this blog post. Strange, huh?
