The only thing more disgusting than that--is the pathetic and insulting defense (by Obama) that Obama was 'only eight years old' when his current friend engaged in terrorist bombings.
That is an absolutely unbelievable, outrageous,pathetic and insulting defense of Obama's adult friendship with a terrorist.
Does that mean that someone who was under 8 years of age on 9/11--could then develop a friendship with Osama bin Laden, and that would be ok???
Yet there are some people (most notably in the MSM) that will into that blatant, BS, bogus logic as a defense.
Unbelievable. Absolutely unbelievable!!!
But bomb-throwing criminal terrorist friends aside, Obama's people have, in effect, been telling all and sundry that anyone taking a position opposed to him are racists. The African-American primary electorate and younger left-leaning Democrats have certainly bought this line of reasoning. Neither do they seem to care about Obama's friends and associates. The problem for the Democrats is that if Obama is not the nominee, their most devoted voting bloc might very well stay home, or worse, perhaps even riot during the convention or in some extreme cases,during the election. The Democrats probably do not want Obama as the nominee, yet they have to keep him and his constituency under control to win the big states.
IMHO, Mrs. Clinton may also be unelectable. So I believe the Democrat ticket is going to be Gore/Obama. Ostensibly, the idea might even come from Obama, in the name of party unity. It might even be presented as a "co-presidency." Al might even promise to bow out after one term to clear the way for the by-then "experienced" Obama. By then, all will be forgotten and forgiven about Obama's unfortunate youthful friendships. What to do with Mrs. Clinton? Senate. Cabinet. UN Ambassador, Supreme Court? Who knows?
I think this ticket would be very tough for McCain to beat.
