You discount how close the primary race has been between Hillary and Obama.

And I firmly believe Hillary would have the slight upper hand if she wasn't so disowned and vilified by liberal elites in the party and the media since February. They gave a free pass to Obama, even as they kicked Hillary down.

I don't have a problem with the fact that Obama is black. I do have a problem with the fact that Obama's ideology is rooted in the worst hatreds of white America and paranoid conspiracy theories that the black community holds. And his muslim connections. And his ultraliberalism. If it were Colin Powell or J.C. Watts, I'd be cheering a black candidate, qwho is aligned with the rest of America, not harboring clear resentment for it.
