RESPONSE:
I agree with you wholeheartedly. I don’t believe that Republicans or non-affiliated voters should be allowed to choose the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate. Unaffiliated voters have chosen not to join an organized political party, so they should vote, as they please, in a general election only.

don’t know too much of delegates how they’re divided but heard on radio that a Hispanic group by the name L.U.L.A.C. (Latin American) was suing the state over how delegates were divided….
I believe they are H.R.C. supporters….

Lets not forget the Obama campaign’s “Democrat for a day” where they urged Republican and Independent voters to vote against Hillary by voting for Obama. In many states they even urged Republicans and Independents to violate state laws to vote in the Democratic primaries and caucuses to do that! The Obama campaign started that program back in the spring of 2007 long before the Rush effect that they whine about was even thought of. Just how many of Obama’s caucus votes were actually Hillary hating Republicans voting for the unelectable Obama so their candidate would get an easy win in Nov?

Excellent post, Truthteller. Very important information that I wish every SuperD would take a long, hard look at.

And, I venture to hope that if Clinton won the party’s nomination that she and Bill would be able to better present the valid case as to why she does deserve AA support. Their civil rights record is rock solid, starting when they were both young, and that they have been maligned regarding race is so unfair.

[...] that has all the hallmarks of an irrational cult of personality and who refuse to acknowledge that he’s not only unelectable, but that he shouldn’t be [...]

Great post!

Also, I wish they would do a tally on asians and latinos/latinas.

In california they are in large enough numbers to affect the outcome. ALL non-AA minorities are in overwhelming numbers for Hillary, and they WILL switch to Mccain if Obama is the nom in august.

And mind you, this is even before the republican attack machine has started on Obama. Mark my words… Mccain will be able to beat Obama in CA, and unlike the dem. primary, the margin won’t matter, even if its close, its winner take ALL in the electoral college system.

Already, Obama and Mccain are even in MA (MA??? the bluest of blue states!!!), and Mccain is w/n the margin or error of Obama in CA.

BTW.. this not some hunch.. I heard larry on a talk radio show, saying the the dem nominee will win against mccain b/c the repubs are in such a disarray.

NOT TRUE!!!!!!!!!!

THE ONLY DEM THAT CAN WIN AGAINST MCCAIN IS HILLARY!!! Obama will LOSE and LOSE BIG!

Larry, you need to start interviewing repubs, even if they don’t like mccain, THEY HATE OBAMA with all his terrorist ties, I CAN GURANTEE YOU the repubs will vote in droves for Mccain to keep Obama out.

And also, know that most people, hillary supporters will go to mccain also, me, I’ve already registered on mccain;s site. I love this country over a political party. AND Obama with this close friendship with racist Wright, and terrorist Ayers, will drive many to a patriot like Mccain.

Larry, mccain will easily win against Obama. The repubs will fall in line, and the hillary supporter and many indepedents will vote for mccain.

Hillary delegates still represent more voters than those of Obama. Her delegates also represent voters in regions of the country who will determine the outcome of the November election.

Jay Cost’s graphs illustrate how Obama’s coalition is a losing coalition, and for this I am very thankful.

As was rightly pointed out over at myDD, the last graph on “voters per pledged delegate” looks a little different when put on a scale that includes 0-10,000 and does not give the impression of Clinton advantage that this picture does. This should not however hide the excellent work done by Jay Cost and summarized in this post – and represents the sort of “fact-based” disclosure that appears to be beyond most of the “highly-educated uppity members of the creative class” that Obama has set such store by. Excellent contribution to the conversation!

Given the increase of Anti-Semiticism world wide and the sway of Public Opinion towards belief in much Pro-Palestinian propaganda…not to mention recruiting efforts for the Jihad of choice…I’d be jittery if I were a Jew….I’m just sayn’

Their concerns are definitely not overblown. His dealings are well documented by many Jewish sites and they are entirely right for being highly alarmed by his many obviously anti-semetic associations. If it was only Wright-Farrakhan perhaps it could be explained away but even then, with only that as his close and long time core is highly damaging of itself, but the enormous weight of his years of supporting and being supported by many other anti-israel factions and individuals are entirely cause for major RED ALERT status in regards to Israel.

His audacity is in pretending otherwise and dismissing his own history as not evidential when it clearly is. This site has covered it but there are many “Never Forget” Israeli sites that link to dozens of facts which show his untrustworthyness.
