Good Grief! Two more hours of hearing idiocy about KY and WVA

Edited on Tue May-20-08 08:06 PM by book_worm

as if they are the only states that matter. Obama is going to win Oregon convincingly and win white voters, black voters, hispanic voters and Asian voters there. He will win college educated voters and blue collar voters. He will take men and probably even women. Will people like that Pat Buchanan pay any attention to those voters? Or is it more of the latte drinking variety who don't count while only the rural, "hard working white voters" of WVA and KY matter.

Oregon went to Kerry by only 4-pts that is a real swing state, not KY and not WVA. Iowa went to Bush by 1-pt--that is a swing state and one that Obama will turn.

4. It has an inbred, racist hick problem.

They still think they're fighting the Civil War in those shitholes.

2. he's got 30% of the vote with 85% reporting

That gives him enough delegates to clinch the lead right now.

5. Turn off the mediawhores and listen to Mike Malloy

At least until the "polls close" in Oregon (quotes used because it's all mail in ballots, and no actual polling places)
