5. He didn't attack her. He called her comments out of line
but to Hillary supporters that's an "attack"

8. She kept saying Obama attacked her like it was a script whether he did or not.
Like the Hillary mud slinging attack she said Obama started, but when you looked back at the debate it was actually Edwards who drew first blood with the mud slinging attack on Hillary. AAnd it wasn't even mud slinging to top it off.

7. Her words would mean more if she wasn't attached to the Hillary campaign
and to say that a candidate is the affirmative action candidate is to say that he's fulfilling some sort of quota. As if he has no merit being where he is except that the powers that be thought it was time for a black dude to run for prez.

10. What is it about the whole "pity party" mentality from Hillary and her surrogates that is pathetic?
It's a common pattern.

After they get busted for saying crap that either focuses on Obama's alleged Muslim roots or that race SHOULD be an issue (as speculated by Ferraro), they have to resort to the "pity party" mentality that is actually even mmore pathetic than their original intentions.

As for Ferraro, she simply doesn't know when to shut her piehole.

17. "attacked her because she is white, and a woman" Get the image she is promoting?
Edited on Wed Mar-12-08 09:12 PM by jmg257
And that without Obama attacking her AT ALL.

In a round of interviews with Pennsylvania reporters on Tuesday, Mr. Obama was asked about Ms. Ferraro’s coments.
“I don’t think Geraldine Ferraro’s comments have any place in our politics or in the Democratic Party. They are divisive. I think anybody who understands the history of this country knows they are patently absurd,” Mr. Obama told the Allentown Morning Call. “And I would expect that the same way those comments don’t have a place in my campaign they shouldn’t have a place in Senator Clinton’s either.”


Ferocious, isn't he??
