You need to pull your head out of your ass on a couple of things. Inflation is not "outrageously high"... compare to the mid-70's and early-80's before you go spouting that drivel. And you're actually going to liken the current situation to teetering on the brink of another Great Depression? Give me a break. Unemployment is still ~5%... it was > 25% then. Interest rates are still historically low. Taxes... low. Get a clue.
How is that not hating America, exactly? Oh wait... I suppose you have the same sort of 'pride' for your country as Michelle Obama's newly found 'pride' for hers... because her husband is filling you full of warm fuzzies and when elected will snap his fingers and fix all your problems... right? Get real.
Common sense begins at home, my friend. By all means you'd better board the next train outta here with your pal saxxa... and do let us know if the grass is really greener when you get to wherever you're going.
race
w/o coming in this thread I knew it would be a huge number of white people that would not vote for him
that's just the way it is when the board is only 15% black
just the thread alone screams racial
Isn't it just as racist to assume that the majority of those in a group of Anti-Obama white Democrats take their stance on a basis of race?

I don't see how someone could vote for Obama in the primary and not vote for Hillary in the general.
That's easy...it's a character issue. Or to use Obama's parlance, it's a matter of judgment.
Hillary has demonstrated many times, both during her Senate service and this campaign, that she a self-serving opportunist and a bald-faced liar. In terms of her leadership and judgment, she's cut from the same cloth as GWB. While they might wave (or hide behind) different standards, they graduated from the same marching school.
As a leader, she's an abominable prospect for this nation. If she somehow garnered the DEM nomination, I wouldn't vote for her.
No it's not
They have no support for their anti-Obama issues.
Is he campaigning negatively? no
Is he hurting the Democratic party? no
Does he share similar policies as Hillary? yes
So why be anti-Obama unless you Rep,racist,or just stupid?

McCain. Obama too Liberal for me.
So you'd rather vote for someone with good character who has pledged to keep us in Iraq, make no changes on economic policy, and nominate conservative judges over someone who already sees eye to eye with you on most issues but just doesn't exemplify good character? Doesn't add up to me, sorry.
It's only natural for the closed-minded to offer such a limited scope of possibilities, so I don't exactly blame you for your shortcoming. After all, it's your nature.
They have similar views on what needs to be done but not on how to do it. Last I checked, Obama isn't talking about obliterating Iran if they lash out against Israel. Granted, I don't support the idea of it either, but that's just one particular instance. The anti-Obama Democrats either don't like his approach to things or they find him to be a bit shady.
Personally, I'm an anti-Hillary Democrat (atleast this time around). Am I sexist? No, I just don't like Hillary. She's inconsistent in her campaigning, mudslinging within her own party, focused more on image than issues, and frankly I think she's batshit crazy. One day she's accusing Obama of being inexperienced and boasting of 35 years of experience (total bullshit), the next she's accusing him of being elitist. She goes straight from attacking him to acting like she's being victimized. She accuses him of being unworthy and unprepared to lead, despite the fact that he's shown more signs of preparation than she but that's beside the point. Then she turns around and suggests he concedes and signs on as her running mate, when he's winning. I'd like to see where Obama is acting the same way, because if he is, I guess that means I'm sexist.
On the opposite end, you've got anti-Obama Democrats who think he's untrustworthy because of his long past with that nutjob pastor and his Muslim extremist father. Personally, I think both of those are bullshit, but there are those who are able to validate that way of thinking and have other reasons not to like him.
That all being said though, I'd probably still pull for Hillary if she got the nod. She is still a better choice than McCain.... I think.
Obama and Clinton are far from being essentially the same candidate, even if they were both the same race and gender. Unfortunately, you only see these readily obvious anomalous traits and assume that that is all that sets them apart.
