Hillary will!








(kidding. I continue to think the odds are overwhelmingly in our favor to win this. but the rise in "it's Hillary's fault" posts as people get worried, is darn amusing.)

3. Can we blame the Log Cabiners for being so goddamned stupid?
A LGBT person voting for McCondo/Wolfslaughter makes about as much sense as an African American voting for David Duke.

4. I won't blame Hillary, gays, or Obama, I'll blame the real culprit.
The hopelessly ignorant and incurious electorate.

5. I'm with Hubbard
and add the sadsack media that starves the people dependent on them of knowledge.

The problem is the electorate and it's plain. Anything above about 30% indicates a dangerous level of stupidity in the electorate.

I think it's safe to say that he'll get more than 30%.

6. I think stupidity is too harsh...it's more ignorance and lack of curiosity.
Willful ignorance. It's infuriating, but it's part of America right now.
Dunno what we can do about it.

9. We are not going to lose, but that will be in spite of
the corporate media, the dumb as fuck electorate, and the nervous nellies.

11. Not only will we not be blamed, but we'll have a pretty good night.
I think we'll win in defeating Proposition 8 in California and I think we might even defeat the marriage amendment in Florida (that amendment will need 60% to pass. Right now, the polling is somewhere around 51% in favor. :-))

14. Actually, the rise in "we shoulda chosen Hillary" posts
is what's amusing, though I'm not laughing.

15. I am a recovered Hillary Hater, I believe posting negative things
about Sen. Hillary is counter productive and ignorant. and I believe for the most part we have moved on

Anyone still hanging on to Primary Bull Shit is an undercover Repuke trying to stir shit up
FAILED
