Geraldine Ferraro, calling Barack Obama "sexist," may not back him
Los Angeles Times Blogs ^ | May 19, 2008 | Don Frederick

Might fully one-third of the six surviving Democratic vice presidential nominees end up opposing their party's national ticket this November?

That possibility arose today based on comments Geraldine Ferraro, the 1984 Democratic veep candidate, made to The New York Times.

That's embarrassing.

Good. I hope the ‘rats wake up and realize the truth that Obama is a lightweight charlatan.

Geraldine Ferraro?

Who cares what that loser thinks? She was nothing more than an equal participant in the most lopsided electoral disaster of all time, 49 states for Ronald Reagan, and 1 state (Minnesota) for her partner Walter ‘On The Fritz’ Mondale.

Ferraro couldn’t even put her home state into play.

She is totally irrelevant, her opinion meaningless.

Ferraro, in the NYT story, terms Obama "terribly sexist."

Aw, c'mon sweetie; lighten up.

The most massive example EVER of “buyer’s remorse” must be going on among the diehard Democrat voters across this country. Probably a third or more must be clinching the butt-cheeks together so hard, that if there was a lump of coal in there, it would surely come out a diamond later on.

Yes totally irrelevant and her opinion meaningless. Much like McGovern and Dukakis yet they are attracting news print too.

So that is, totally irrelevant and meaningless until she refuses to back Obama once he wins the nomination.

After her earlier rascist comments, I am not surprised.

Ferraro’s failure to vote for Obama is clear evidence that she is a racist!

Exactly. If it’s sexism to criticize Hillary and not vote for her, isn’t it racism if you criticize Obama and decide not to vote for him????????

I went to that site you linked ... Wow! These democRATs really hate Obama! I like the following comment, mainly because it is good and one of the few without a curse word or two:

With all the money spent on his education, every time he opens his mouth he is a advertisement for home schooling.
