I did not think this was as big as "they" claim.

Then again, telling a bunch of southern Christians that they are holding onto their religion becasue they are bitter never does sit well.

None of the three will adequately represent the interests of middle-america, but then even middle-class americans vote against their own best interests.

Fact.

If we had any sense we'd still be looking at a John Edwards candidacy. He had everything right except his politics were supposedly too far to the left. And of course people had to whine about his being a lawyer and how all lawyers suck ass. It's strange that people should disqualify a man for being able to read and understand the legislation put in front of him or that he himself might propose. Fuck, they're all lawyers usually.

This country is insane and has its head so firmly planted up its own ass I doubt it will recover during the remainder of my lifetime.

It wasnt a slam on religion or guns.... I did not view it as a slam.  It was a slam on the outsource mentality- thats my opinion on it.

PaHunk, it has caused an uproar because Obama has basically called most of the people of this country "Rubes."

And no offense here kids but whenever the shit hits the fan in this country, not just PA, people reach for their guns & their bibles. So was it a gaff or just reality hitting too close for comfort?

I was for Obama until a week ago.  Hillary can take a punch, she could excel.   Obama  really should be around abit to know if we really want him in charge for 4 years.  He is a new-comer.  Tho- Obama is better the McCain.
