66. Well I don't agree with that last assertion you've heard.
I don't think it sets anything back to run. I don't think Jackson, Braun, or Sharpton running in the primaries has done anything remotely negative for black politicians. I think it's been very good and healthy. In all actuality, I think Obama running, even without really being qualified, will be a good experience for him and will set up future runs. I do think he needs to be paying more attention to his current duties in the meantime, however.

I hadn't seen that seen that said around here, but I certainly don't doubt it's happened. Just remember that a few people saying such things on DU aren't representative of the whole community - they don't even make up a whole percentage point of our 90,000+ membership. Also, not all DUers are exactly Democrats for that matter.
