"President Barack Obama's 2012 re-election campaign will be the first in modern political history to abandon white working-class voters, strategists claim.For decades, Democrats have been losing more and more blue collar whites. Their alienation helped lead to the massive Republican wave in 2010, when the GOP wooed 30 percent more of them than the Democrats could.
Democratic strategists say President Obama is focusing his attention, instead, on poor black and Hispanic voters and educated white professionals."
Or in other words, Bobo can't win. But that doesn't mean they won't abandon whites anyway...
I couldn't believe that there are people who are unwilling to defend themselves. Criminals are learning that there are far too many people like Heather and our visitor - they have been destroyed inside by the overwhelming political correctness and self loathing by the left.

Amen
The very first day this came out I said lets just let the news media try people. Look at the money we would save by abolishing the court system.
I read a report that made sense early on. Zimmerman lost sight of Martin and was walking back to his vehicle. Martin then came up to him and said something like "you got a problem? you do now." Then he knocked Zimmerman down then got on top of him and pulled his shirt over his head thus revealing the pistol. They struggled over it and Zimmerman was able to fire it, however it was an automatic and Martin had his hand on the slide so only one round went off. The automatic mechanism did not operate meaning the spent bullet was still in the chamber.
This makes sense to me but I am NOT saying this is exactly what happened. I want people under oath when they give information. Being under oath won't stop people from lying, but it means that if they are caught in a lie they can face prosecution, unlike lying to the TV camera.
The scenario I just gave may be the reason they haven't charged Mr. Zimmerman. If it was cold bloodied shooting he would have been in jail when it occurred and would still be there without bond.
Now Jessie & Al say they want justice. No they want Zimmerman arrested and convicted and they will not be satisfied with anything less, regardless of the facts.
I still say lets get the facts in court, then we should know exactly what happened.
Unfortunately the well has been so poisoned that we may never get the facts. Remember the Rodney King riots? If Zimmerman is found to be not guilty I am afraid all hell will break loose and Al & Jessie should be held accountable.
Why manipulate the tragedy? Why not, say the untold numbers of vultures circling the body. Jackson and Sharpton are two scoundrels whose lives are built around exploiting tragedy. This is not the first time they’ve done it, and it sure won’t be the last.
And to think the community organizer-in-chief has done his part
The Obama lynch mob.
Zimmerman now fears for his life for ATWQOABMWWH. (asking the wrong question of a black man while white hispanic)
It’s an election year. Time to fire up the base.
This is the DEMOCRAT RE-ELECTION STRATEGY!
Nothing more.
This is how the coalition of commies and RINOs are going to destroy self-defense laws that have been built up over the last 20 years.
They will whip up the citiots, most of whom have never been in any kind of physical conflict in their entire lives, into believing that fists are not deadly.
This "grossly disproportionate" meme will grow and grow among the nancy-boys and fraidy-girls of the news media, who would not defend their own lives if they were raped within a millimeter of it.
Obama said he would persue gun control "under the radar". Through manipulation of the news media, he no longer has to. They will do his work for him.
But I will not lay down. I will be armed, and I will shoot any mutant zombie Trayvon who assaults me, with a fist or with a gun, or with anything.
Zimmerman couldn’t shoot more than once. Due to the back of the gun being right on Zimmerman’s body or a struggle for the gun, the second cartridge didn’t cycle into the chamber. The police reported that they recovered a fully loaded magazine from the gun.
This article is still full of bull, despite supposed statistics. It remains an isolated incident that appears to have escalated to shocking results.
In addition to the eyewitness, we have yet to learn if there were indeed a bag of candy, skittles, or an ice tea bottle on the scene. All the touting of the skittles and tea make me want to know if it was actually that, or drugs and pot. Saw a reference to the nearest store to buy these was 2 miles away and he would have had to walk in the rain. I am curious about a lot more than what Trayvon’s family and crew keep spouting off about.
As to the suggestion that the violence inflicted upon Zimmerman didn’t warrant a gun...isn’t that what the FL law is all about? It wasn’t Zimmerman’s responsibility to get himself out of that situation without defending himself. A head injury can be fatal, should he have waited till he was unconscious before he pulled the gun?
Another citified intellectual shows her fundamental revulsion towards the basic human concept of self-defense. How many people are killed each year by someone else's bare hands?
According to both his bother and his father, Martin was in the process of trying to take the gun. Martin spied the gun, and THAT preceded the death threat from Martin, against Zimmerman.
Why exploit Trayvon? Never let a good tragedy go to waste!
Amen. I'm tired of ceding my country to the Trayvons. I'VE HAD IT!
” unless new facts come to light — unjustified loss of an innocent life. “
I almost threw up after the first sentence.
Unreal and irresponsible.
