Jeb Bush, younger moron: 63 percent said there was no way he would get their vote.

Obama crushed a black republican, Alan Keyes, so what?
Stop with the racist shit...
Stop with the racist shit...
Quote from Pabst:
Sharpton was hardly a serios candidate. Nor was Jesse. Obams was a state Senator. Look how Obama fared when he went one on one with fellow black Rep. Bobby Rush in a Congressional primary.
Quote from ZZZzzzzzzz:
Presidential race in 2004 primary was multi-field, and race was not an issue, nor a benefit to Rev Al.
More racist ignorant BS from Pabst...
South Carolina: Sharpton received more votes than Dean, Lieberman and Kucinich combined. Of course race wasn't responsible. It was Al's tremendous record of accomplishment.
Edwards 131,174 45%
Kerry 88,508 30%
Sharpton 28,201 10%
Clark 21,011 7%
Dean 13,815 5%
Lieberman 7,147 2%
Kucinich 1,319 1%

This is what I do if I am a democrat strategist.
Hillary is unelectable in the red states as it stands now.
I push hard for Hillary knowing that she is unelectable. I make Barak Obama her running mate, further sealing the deal...red states are in no way going to vote in a Hillary and a black VP. Sorry, it is the truth.
What does this accomplish?
It ends the book on Bill and Hillary.
It puts Obama in the spotlight, which he needs, and the loss will not be blamed on him.
It puts some idiot republican in the white house for the next 4 years, inheriting the mess that GW leaves, further angering both conservatives and liberals.
Barring a miracle, the president that follow Bush will be a one termer, and the dems need new blood. The only way to kill the Clintons politically, is to have them destroyed in an election.
The only issue that I have with all of this, is the court will then probably get another white male on the bench, which is going to throw us further to the right.
However, Hillary could be elected if, just like in 92, there is a strong 3rd party candidate, from the south, who is a rednecked conservative running against say, Rudy and Hillary...which could give just enough of a pull to Hillary.
I think you're too pessimistic. She has two years to turn those negatives around. That's a long time in politics. Also, I think she has at least as good a chance in the Red states as any other Dem who is likely to be nominated.
I'd be worrying about how to keep Bill out of sight during the campaign.

of course she can gain the white house - the american public's reelection of bush/cheney/iraq has to remind us that ignorance has no bounds.
disagree about Bill - politically, they should focus on him exclusively. she should stay out of it as much as possible - try to get people to forget she's there. the whole thing has been reduced to tv charisma and superficial marketing, and there's nobody better at that than Bill. put him front and center in the ads, write only "clinton" on the campaign signs, etc. it took the majority 4 years to figure out iraq wasn't such a good idea, tricking them into voting for Bill again would be easy.
