That's interesting you say that b/c I actually have very close and personal black friends (life-long dems) that tell me they'll vote for McCain if the other choice is Obama -- which just goes to show you how divided the nation is right now with this decision.



Well, one of those black friends I was telling you about...happens to be a former country judge who has been very involved in the ground work in my "swing-state's" dem primary election. He insists that Obama and his crew of "rich-yuppie" white kids are the dirtiest players he's ever seen.



That's an interesting idea. I don't necessarily disagree with you, but what makes you say that?



I know lots of ppl who are "losing their marbles" but they're still capable as serving as valuable and active members of their society. And I heard that interview you're referring to, and in my opinion, it seemed that the reporter took Clinton's answer out of context and thus Clinton "denied" the reporter's version of the comment.



I'm not sure what you mean by a "real" debate, and when did CLINTON go from being associated as one of the greatest presidents ever, to then not even being capable of carrying out a "real" debate??? And McCain??? Surely you don't think he could "duke it out" with Bill. Granted, it's Hillary in the race and not Bill, but that's why you and others refer to her (not so affectionately) as "Billary."



I don't follow the election that closely and thus I'm not sure what you're talking about, chalk it up to my naiveness on the happenings in this race. But you and I both know that those pictures were probably put out by the Obama ppl to try and make Hillary look like a "swash-buckler."
