Campaigns that counted on uncommitted taking the youth vote are baffled by this year's race.

BleepBot, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:59 (eighteen years ago)

have you seen uncommitted's attack ads? BRUTAL

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:00 (eighteen years ago)

if she only got 55% and she was the only real choice, that don't look so good to me

akm, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:02 (eighteen years ago)

Sadly, I don't think we're ready to have an uncommitted candidate become president yet. Maybe it's a generational thing. Personally, I'd be elated at the opportunity to cast my vote for a incorporeal, notional non-entity to the highest elected office in the country.

suzy, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:14 (eighteen years ago)

y'know if uncommitted were a woman - of any race - he would not gotten to where he is

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:16 (eighteen years ago)

Neither Hillary or Barack could stand up to McCain/God, of that I am certain.

The Reverend, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:27 (eighteen years ago)

I'm not sure God would get business conservatives into McCain's corner, though. What are God's economic credentials?

The Reverend, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 19:29 (eighteen years ago)

lengthy experience serving as invisible hand in free markets

LOL at NO black folks appearing in crowd - except for a secret service guy - during telecast of HRC's rally at some high school in Scranton, PA last night

I live not far away from there and I know we're a SERIOUS minority in these parts, but, you know, LOLOLOLOL

McCain gets pregnant by Hillary through some sort of magical mumbo jumbo.

Nicole, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 20:18 (eighteen years ago)

McCain decides to raise the baby with the assistance of Kelly Kapoor.

deej, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:10 (eighteen years ago)

clinton voters seem like assholes

deej, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:11 (eighteen years ago)

Wow, that's a marked shift from the conventional wisdom, though, which is that Obama voters hate Hillary but that Hillary voters could live with Obama. Then again, this is Mississippi we're talking about, so I'm wondering if some of the antipathy toward Obama among Hillary voters can be chalked up to racism.

jaymc, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:13 (eighteen years ago)

Mississippi is special in that regards and not at all like the rest of the country. (wtf)

HI DERE, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:14 (eighteen years ago)

its a well known fact that hillary voters are horrible racists and cannibals

jhøshea, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:18 (eighteen years ago)

Geraldine Ferraro is getting righteously butchered by CNN analysts right now:

"She should know better, she owes Barack Obama an apology, she used to have class."

Le Bateau Ivre, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:38 (eighteen years ago)

Oh c'mon Dan, I know there are racists everywhere, but I'd think there'd be proportionally more of them in the Old South -- especially in the state where Medgar Evers and Emmett Till were killed.

jhøshea, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:55 (eighteen years ago)

Yr behind the times, jaymc, polls have been clearly trending towards hil voters purporting to be more dissatisfied with the alternative than Obama voters

gabbneb, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 22:57 (eighteen years ago)

ferraro: "Any time anybody does anything that in any way pulls this campaign down and says let's address reality and the problems we're facing in this world, you're accused of being racist, so you have to shut up," Ferraro said. "Racism works in two different directions. I really think they're attacking me because I'm white. How's that?"
