Didn't think so.

1. I'm not so sure anymore.
I think some would.

It's pathetic. Gerri Ferraro has crossed the line into senility. Someone should have her committed.

5. I wouldn't be surprised if Hillary supporters defended that.
Anything they can say against Obama, they will.

6. OzarkDem would be on board.
As long as it helps Hillary. Funny thing is, what a double-standard to set for yourself. Against sexism, supportive of racial remarks... Hmmm....

7. I think some of the Hillary supports would still see it as an attack
on Obama, but that would be what they wanted. So yes I think a few of the more extreme Hillary supports would defend it as a good thing.

11. I'm sure we are going to hear it over the summer
But I never thought that the first person I'd hear it from would be a Democrat. I'm *so* pissed off.

15. No, they'd be lapping it up and repeating it.
Even they get sick of their own talking points.
