Obama should not win - just more words and words are nothing without actions. It's time to take the racist rhetoric of his supporters out of this campaign before we all suffer.
I was stationed in Fallon Nevada when I was in the Navy and I loved it. The thing that gets me in the coverage of the caucus is that people in the rest of the country have a wrong impression of the state.
What I remember so clearly was the fierce independence of the people there. And to think that what we saw was a bunch of union bosses (probably implants) acting as though they owned the votes.
Super Tuesday - the day the SCAMOBAMA MUSIC DIES.
Tomato32,
I think you are right. But now, nationwide, this is being seen as being about race because of the polarity of the African American vote in this caucus (+80%). If they had split their vote up by the same margin as that of women or that of Latinos, it would not have looked so blatant. They, and the Culinary Union, did not do Obama any favors.
Add to that the fact and perception created by the actions and words in the African American community by people like Oprah, Michelle Obama, and the church the Obamas' attend have made it seem as though racism by their community is acceptable, while racism by other ethnic groups isn't. That too will hurt Obama in the primary. Now, because of their polarizing actions, the primary will be over after Super Tuesday. Obama will become a footnote for at least 8 more years.

The relationship between Hispanics and Whites generally is pretty tight probably because similarities between the two cultures is much closer than it is between Blacks and Hispanics.
In fact that tends to be the case between other cultures (races) and Whites. I am not sure why - seems to be Bliblical
