It would be great if they formed a third political party...

Racism in its purest form - they are voting for him because of his race, and will be upset if he doesn’t win because of his race. They are defining themselves by their race rather than as human beings, and sizing up Obama based on his race, not as a candidate. Absolutely disgusting.

So, what do they want, affirmative action at the ballot box? I wonder if they’ll demand each black vote count for 1.5 votes compared to everyone else.

Vote for Barack, the candidate of change, peace and post-partisanship. Oh, and if he loses, we’ll riot.
To: forkinsocket
Oh well, of course. It’s a perfectly normal, rational response to not winning all the marbles the very first time you play to go nuclear on the whole game...

No Obama, no peace.
I am skeptical, but also concerned.
The media has worked people up into a FRENZY that Obama WILL win. And if it doesn’t happen?
After all the years of Gore and Kerry-ites claiming they really won?
Folks, we need to fight for a large margin victory here.
Another slim victory? I have concerns.
The unhinged left knows no limits.
To: Tulane
Yes, please form your own party.

"African-Americans could be disappointed to the point of not engaging in the process anymore," or consider forming a third political partyFrom your lips to Gods ears.
Democrats have been selling black folks down the river for decades, it's about time they wised up.

Riots oh my. Make this a big story please. Let them threaten riots and McCain is sure to win by margins never before seen especially in the South.

You know, it’s pretty hard to see it any other way.

two points:
-”Some people said they would be so angry it would be reminiscent of the [1960s] riots” GROW UP! Those threats wont work.
-They are “worried and angry”- good- if current trends persist, the Dhims should become demoralized and may wring their hands and stay home on Election day.

Didn’t MLK say judge a man by the “CONTENT OF HIS CHARACTER, NOT THE COLOR OF HIS SKIN”?

You know if blacks voted for Lynn Swan or Ken Blackwell in 2006 (which they didn't, staying on the Democratic plantation) one of them might be on the ticket rather than Sarah.
But they chose to ally themselves with unreconstructed racist Democratic whites rather than issue-driven who-cares-about-color Republican whites and those Democratic whites are going to stab them in the back.

"My audience is upset," she said in an interview. "Some people said they would be so angry it would be reminiscent of the [1960s] riots -- that is how despondent they would be."
Threat noted.

The man will lose because he’s an empty suit, not because of his race.
To: conservativeinferno
Yes, please form your own party.
Might as well. They've chosen to segregate themselves on everything else.

I don’t remember being asked if I’m ‘fretting over Obama’.
