There are voters like us, though, who are coming forward to be counted. In spite of the media onslaught and delight in demeaning her....my own Arkansas newspaper prints most of the same negative editorials that are posted her....she has won some big important states.

I marvel at that. All the polls that she can't be trusted, is divisive and unelectible, but folks keep trudging to the polls and voting for her. I keep wondering why is that...why aren't they being swept up in the adulation.

A friend of one of my children works at IBM. She said that one day she announced in the break room that she had decided she preferred Hillary and all the men broke out in laughter and start swapping all the mean stereotype comments with each other and just whooping it up like they were so clever.

She said it made her feel like an idiot.

For several days she came to work and found copies of internet Hillary attack cartoons on her desk. It was weird and totally unexpected she said as these were co-workers she'd known for years and otherwise acted like plain average people.

Mary;

but also from the elite white community

Your logic escapes me. Why in the world would the white elite want a black man to be president? Why does there have to be some hidden agenda - might it just be that Obama has a message that is resonating with people?

During the debate last night the announcers gave the candidates turds to throw and Hillary stepped up to the plate. The American public is sick of this crap and want real issues discussed. If you think I am wrong, go the the ABC debate blog and read what people are saying.
