well duh?!

Everyone knows this...it's just no one wants to say many whites will vote for Hillary because of race.

I think those who are against Obama get more fun out of saying blacks will vote for Obama because he's black.

Anyone who truly knows West Virginia is very aware that it is the most racist state in the United States. Obama doesn't and never did stand a chance here. True hillbilly ignorance. They would vote for a snake before they would vote for a black man. Oh yeah I forgot they are voting for a snake.

I think this is one of the states Hillary would define as full of her "less educated whites" base.

When Hillary says "Whites will support me" she means states like West Va.

If Obama does better than a 3-1 loss, he should count that as success in West Virginia.

While Obama is winning Oregon, Hillary will win West Virginia, and that will allow her to end the campaign on a high note. Cause mathematically it's over.

Get off the "Vote for Obama or you are a racist" nonsense.
The fact that Hillary can still win at this stage indicates that Obama has a lot of work to do just to get blue-collar Democrats to vote for him. How is he ever going to get blue-collar Republicans to vote for him?
I have been to West Virginia several times. My late father was born there. These are the same people who put Byrd (an ultra-liberal) in the Senate and a Rockefeller in the govenor's mansion. How racist could they be?
The fact is simple: very few blacks actually live there. The state is probably more white than any other state. That does not mean it is racist in itself. The fact that Obama can't communicate with whites is HIS problem and not theirs.

I believe there should be a poll on just Hillary voters. Would voters for Hillary vote for her if they knew about her Superior Court Case no BC 304174 in the County of Los Angeles, California. The information would surely come alive during the presidential campaign. Hillary is accused of fraud, deceit, etc. The judge ruled, April 25, 2008, that the case will be delayed until after the November election. There is an interesting article written about her in The Wall Street Journal Sept 14, 2007 by J. Emshwiller, if it has not been removed from their archives. The public should have heard this information as well.

So, Obama piles it up in NC, and it is a great victory, but Clinton does the same in WV and it is racism?

Don't forget, WV became a state because they refused to stay with VIRGINIA and seceed from the UNION. Instead, they seceeded from Virginia, and fought with the United States against the turncoat confederacy.

I think the only stating folks to be racists is Hillary, now isn't she. You think she's saying less-educated whites will support her because of her thoughts on national health care?

Umm, the demographics between NC and W. Va. is dfferent. For every black person is North Carolina there is .0034 blacks in West Virgina.

I believe that Clinton is the one that started the race issue when she insinuated that the whites were in her corner meaning that the whites will not vote for Obama. No one said vote for Obama or you are a racist. Clinton said vote for me because you are white. Funny how Obama keeps getting the intelligent white vote. Now just what does that say for Clinton and West Virginia?

It says that Hillary is treating them like they were undereducated, hourly wage poor, racists. I find it really insulting that she thinks she will WIN votes by insulting folks in West by God Virginia.

They should leave her a bundle of sticks for talking down to them like that.

We shall see if the white people of West Virginia and Kentucky understand just how she insulted them by calling them uneducated and poor. These white people support me because I understand the low income poorly educated blue collar worker in West Virginia and Kentucky. Since she wants to just be one of the boys let her spend a day in one of the coal mines. If they fall for her hypocritical political agenda they deserve her.

Obama hurt by uneducated liberals or Obama hurt by uneducated Liberal Racist Elite's!
The Trojan Horses of Hate! The Cast of Liberal Elites! Dean, The Black Panthers, Farrakhan, Jackson, Nation of Islam, Sharpton, Soros, Wright, and a much longer list of rich Elite Liberal Geezers like Kennedy,( KKK card carrying member Democrapper Senator Byrd of West Virginia ), and Bitter-CommonSense Supporters of the Democrat Party for Obama.
They rant racial divisiveness, subversive agendas, and seek mind control of the weak and prey on the uneducated, to use you for your vote.
The Democrat Elites are the beneficiaries and Grand Old Gaffe Masters of in-slaving ignorant people (a new form of slavery), race baiting and teaching them to embellish the bitter hatred rants of their new KKK success.
Liberals have singlehandedly succeeded in dividing the country and their glorious party and cherish their commitment to cultural uneducated values and bitter aspirations of the Liberal Left, the Trojan Horses of Hate and Labels.
Democrats have succumbed to political racist cannibalism.
Be careful for what you wish for! An Obama nomination is a guaranteed Presidentential McCain win. The Liberal Elite's will regret the outcome of this election and they will not refund your donations for a job they poorly performed.
The Liberal Gafe Masters will blame you for loosing the election. Obama hurt by uneducated white liberals. A party of no responsibility for themselves and untouchable Racist Liberal Elitest's.
Many Thanks! for your vote. Go Go Obama! Yes We Can!! McCain and Hillary 2008!!! This is real change we can all believe in!
P.S. I would advise in the best interest to the future of African Americans, to oppose the democrats Pro-Abortion and platform, if numbers mean anything to them... You can not trust the Gaffe Masters.
Boy oh boy you are a dedicated Republican spammer. Same bla bla bla every thread.

Democrats are smarter than Republicans regarding your hateful rant areas. We are our brothers' keepers. That's why we had a woman, a black, and a hispanic candidate with our white male candidates --- when this race started.

Take all your hate spreading and fear mongering with you on your way out of town. Folks in W. Va. are way smarter than you seem to think.

All across America we have seen the DC insiders be all talk and no walk.

W. Va. voters can see that Obama is supported by little people, citizens, patriots and is winning in spite of fighting the party insiders of both R & D who sold out long ago.

You ask how racsist they could be by pointing out that these people put a card carrying member of the KKK in office? Well they could be racist enough to do that since, you know. they did.

Yep. More percentages of whites in NC supported Obama than will those in WV. Its due to their racist and backwater tendencies.

Rob Malley, a Middle East policy adviser to likely Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama, resigned after news surfaced that he had been meeting with Hamas -- something Obama pledged he himself would never do. Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt said Saturday Malley called the Obama campaign on Friday to sever ties with the candidate after learning the Times of London was publishing a story about his contacts with the terrorist group.

Robert Malley
Sen. Barack Obama quickly severed ties today with a Middle East policy adviser who acknowledged holding private meetings with the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas.

Robert Malley – as WND reported in January – advocated negotiations with Hamas and providing the group, which rules Gaza, with international assistance. The U.S. State Department regards Hamas as a terrorist organization.
