David Gergen just blew my mind!

[tjs_whatnot]

David Gergen just said that the elections aren't over, even though all the polls are saying it was a homerun...

"It's not over because Obama is Black."

When did pundents get so truthful and blunt?

It is possible that I've forgotten about the race issue?

You see, that's why I said Redneck rascists, not rednecks, not rascists, but a mixture of both. And I hate to tell you, but redneck rascists are not only in the south. I understand the touchy that southerners feel about "redneck" but Southerners do not have the market on it...and I'm speaking from someone who spent their first 28 years of my life in a 100 miles radius of the part of Idaho that is raft with Arian Nations and Nazi Youths of Tomorrow, the next two years were spent in Texas...

But you're right, I should have just said rascists...but sadly, I think with "Joe Six-Pack" and all, there is a specific rascist the Republicans are looking for...

Yes, I think Obama did much better at answering the questions and much better at answering them in a way that was specific to what exactly he was going to do...

*nods* I suppose that the Republican party really is counting on people voting according to race... which is sad. :s


I honestly still am unsure the way I'm going to vote. The economy right now is obviously a big deal, a problem the new president will have to fix immediately... but I don't know which of their methods is better, you know? I suppose I'm going to have to decide based upon a few other issues...

Watching the debate last night didn't help me at all, heh.

I love that I get to vote and that what I think matters, unfortunately with the electral college the way it is...people in our states are told from early on that our votes are going for either red or blue...but it would be sorta fun to live in those states that can change...I'd like the thought that my single vote swayed the country one way or the other...but I have no interest in living in Ohio or Florida, so oh well...

I think you might be my first undecided I've spoken to, wow! I can't even imagine what you guys are going through!
