As opposed to Liebermann, and Bloomy, ObAma was running against someone with welll below average intelligence. The fact that McCain got as far as he did is a true testament to the racism, stupidity, and paranoia of many in our country.

Michael, as a friend, maybe you can explain to me why Oboma received
nearly 97+ of the black vote? Neither Joe Lieberman
