Obama can bury his head in the sand and trot out Superdelegates before and after Hillary's win in West Virginia and it still won't change the facts: He has a BIG weakness...winning in swing states among working class, (yes) white voters, women, the elderly, etc.
He can toss these voters aside, claiming he can win without them but I doubt that he can win with Blacks and the youth vote and intellectuals. Hasn't anybody ever told him that older voters are more reliable voters? Does he really think he can carry all those Republican States?
I suspect the reason he's built this "new" coalition is because he knows "older" people are not buying the bull he's selling. I knew sooner or later the halo was going to dim.
Maybe it's too late for Hillary to get the nomination, I don't know, but I want her and the campaign to know that her supporters love and respect her and her husband. I think it is appalling that her former supporters have turned on her. I was so disgusted by this that I switched to Independent. I now have a sense that the fix is in: It has already been "decided" that Obama is the nominee, unless he collapses. How else would you describe the flooding of superdelegates to him even after what we have learened? It almost as if they have said: "We don't care." Any one who believes his explanations is an idiot. So, since I'm not, I don't plan on supporting him. I no longer will vote based on a "D" beside someon'e name. And by the way, the bad times won't sway me either as his surrogates is quick to counter. What is more important is voting my conscience and belief...and I believe Obama shares Wright's views.
