			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>I, for one, am seriously sick of the Clinton campaign playing the race card but acting like they aren&#8217;t.</p>
<p>Since they can&#8217;t get anything to stick to Obama, they&#8217;re now attacking his electability.  Specious arguments that she&#8217;s won the big critical states make absolutely no sense.  They must think we&#8217;re all idiots.</p>
<p>And because Clinton has won West Virginia, we&#8217;re led to believe that Obama can&#8217;t win the &#8220;white vote?&#8221;  This isn&#8217;t about winning the &#8220;white vote.&#8221;  (Sorry, I have to keep putting it in quotes because it is so ridiculous.)  Ever hear of UTAH?  Well, Obama won Utah.  And I can tell you this:  there aren&#8217;t a whole <a href="http://www.census.gov/population/estimates/county/crh/crhut98.txt">helluva lot of African Americans in Utah</a>.  African Americans make up 0.8% of the entire Utah population.</p>
<p>Clearly, this is an issue of intelligence, not race.  West Virginia is the most poorly educated state in the country.  They&#8217;re dumb enough to vote for someone completely disconnected from their plight. What&#8217;s more, to vote against someone because of the color of their skin?  Lovely.</p>

This from the blog byline:

AM I BEING “AGE-IST”? PROBABLY. BUT THE WORLD IS A PRETTY COMPLICATED PLACE RIGHT NOW AND I’M THINKING THAT IT’S NOT SUCH A GREAT TIME TO ELECT OUR OLDEST PRESIDENT EVER. SO SUE ME.
