"... but even if racism does play a part in the seeming rejection of Obama among certain voters - a contention I thoroughly do not accept - I mean, what, you're telling me if Colin Powell was the nominee race would be much of an issue? - but, ok, even if we assume it is, do you really want to elect a guy to the most difficult job in the world as a way of countering such sentiments? You're telling me you wanna give this guy Obama, a person with little relevant experience and few if any outstanding credentials, you wanna give this guy that job just to make or prove some extremely dubious point? That, my friend, is nuts - and nuts is exactly what most Obama supporters seem to be, given the near juvenile emotionalism that support seems rooted in. I mean, hope? That's it? I understand all politicians need to pander to some degree when it comes to the psychic needs of the electorate - but this guy and his sycophants act like he's tapped into the very DNA of existence in what they like to see as the post modern world. Messianic doesn't even begin to describe it - hell, at least Christ had the decency to perform a few miracles. It's fucking insane."
