The sad fact is no person, no matter how fantasic, who is not white will ever be able to win the presidency as a Democrat. It's a sad day for Nevada that the Clintons were able to play the race card so skilfully and get Latinos and Asians (and of course whites) to act on their hatred of blacks against a person who is really not all that black. But hey it worked, right, and that's all that matters.

As for the women's vote for the Clintons, Mrs. Clinton has always been amazingly subserviant to her Bubba and that will continue. Role model for young women: "Marry a politician and someday when he is barred by term limits you too can be elected to get him back into office!"

In November I can't imagine very many anti-war Clinton haters in the Democratic party switching and voting for the Clintons, and there is no way they can avoid a landslide against them in November. This is too much like the Walter Mondale/ Gary Hart Democratic nomination fight when Mondale won but then lost 49 out of 50 states in November.

Reform Democrats, including Obama, need to keep their distance from the Clintons as much as possible, and try to help other anti-war Democrats get elected in spite of the landslide obviously coming against the Clintons. A shame since this was going to be a Democratic year and many fine new Democrats will be defeated in November.

Shame on Latino and Asian Nevada Democrats for buying into the racism.

Congrats Clintons you've turned Brown against Black, union against union, and absolutely killed the Democratic party. Obama supporters will never vote for the Clintons now. I voted for the Clintons twice but Obama was the new intelligent face this year. The Clintons have sunk to being such slime. I'd vote for a dead dog before I'd vote for the Clintons a 3rd time.

Democratic party is dead, dead, dead for 08.

The next president will be McCain or (hopefully) Bloomberg.

Bloomberg/Obama 08 would be a landslide!

Well the Democrats are picking the only Democrat who can't win in November. Congrats Clintons on killing the Democratic party.

BLOOMBERG/OBAMA 08
