A black dem by the name of Barrack Hussein Obama? Its a huge accomplishment.

I agree though. The dems win with just regular John Smith running. They get style points with Obama.

I really think the fact that he is young and half black played a huge role. I can't think of too many older white career democrats that wouldn't have found someway to screw it up.

It has absolutely everything to do with Bush. To think otherwise is retarded.

Eggplant in Italian...you know something Pants..

"In standard Italian the word for eggplant is melanzana, a word also used disparagingly to denote a black person, and in Italian-American slang derived from the southern dialects, the disparagement is often abbreviated to "mulie."

DaHoss, aren't you afraid of the African-American community celebrating this victory tonight by rioting in the streets?

I know I'm bringing in my children's bikes, and all my rakes from the back of the house

It won't be safe out there tonight. I think I just heard a Colt .45 malt liquor bottle smash out in the street
