Obama says Republicans will use race to stoke fear

By Caren Bohan Fri Jun 20, 7:19 PM ET

JACKSONVILLE, Florida (Reuters) - Democratic presidential contender Barack Obama said on Friday he expects Republicans to highlight the fact that he is black as part of an effort to make voters afraid of him.

"It is going to be very difficult for Republicans to run on their stewardship of the economy or their outstanding foreign policy," Obama told a fundraiser in Jacksonville, Florida. "We know what kind of campaign they're going to run. They're going to try to make you afraid.

"They're going to try to make you afraid of me. He's young and inexperienced and he's got a funny name. And did I mention he's black?"
Democrats think the glass is half full.
Republicans think the glass is theirs.
Libertarians want to break the glass, because they think a conspiracy created it.

And, he`s a Muslim who went to Harvard.  `nuff said.

"Wesley told the early Methodists to gain all they could and save all they could so that they could give all they could. It means that I consider my money to belong to God and I see myself as one of the hungry people who needs to get fed with God’s money. If I really have put all my trust in Jesus Christ as savior and Lord, then nothing I have is really my own anymore."

I guess I should have phrased it, "I don't think he'll LET them Swiftboat him."

I can't wait to see Obama and McCain standing side by side.

One tall and vivd--the other one almost not there.

Barack Obama and the people within his circle are a step ahead of the same O'l status quo dirty, criminal ,politics that have infected our halls of government for some time now.

The game they intend to play will not be as effective as it first was, back then. It is a brand new day, and for once we have an intelligent man that will be running our great country. Instead of the spoiled, brain dead rich punk, and his criminal junta,  that has set this great nation back into the era of depression, and hopelessness.

Barack Obama is too much man for their lame monkey butts!
