one thing I can't understand:
how ANYBODY could vote for Clinton over Obama.
Well, I can think of one reason why, but I seriously doubt there are that many racists voting in the Democratic primaries.
I know we have at least one pro-Clinton commenter. Please explain why the uncharismatic, unengaging, severely divisive senator (from a state she had never previously lived in), who has done nothing especially notable in her seven years in office (other than voting for the resolution that led to the war), should win the nomination over her dynamic and exciting opponent.
Compare Clinton's speech last night to Barack Obama's. One is lifeless and a bit smug, and would seem robotic even without the feedback from the PA. The other is passionate and genuinely moving.
So, why should anybody vote for Clinton? They don't seem too far off on the issues, and Obama destroys her when it comes to likability. Unless you're afraid America is still too racist to vote for a black candidate, why would you think Clinton has a better shot of beating McCain (or whoever)?
