Who do you think won the Ferraro-Obama dust up?

Poll question: Who do you think won the Ferraro-Obama dust up?

I should thank both of these fine Democrats for helping us all take our minds off of Elliot Spitzer for a day. But after it's all counted up, who do you think most benefited from the duelling soundbytes between Barack Obama & Geraldine Ferraro?

[SoFlaJet]

1. We DEMOCRATS are the ones who lost

to see this kind of racist divisive bullshit from one of our own-a VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIATE no less-makes it a sad day in the history of our party-welcome back to 1965

2. You are so on target. K&R your response because we all lost today.

[MannyGoldstein]

3. No Real Winners

Ferraro/Clinton kinda lost - although I suspect what Feracist said may resonate with the same class of faux-realpolitik folks that still back Clinton.

4. What dust up?

She made a stupid comment, then defended it with another stupid comment. Obama should have ignored her.

[Kittycat]

5. I can't even beleive people are supporting her.

Jesus Christ! WTF? Are we democrats or republicans? FFS People. It doesn't matter WHO you support, just don't support that!

[OzarkDem]

6. Democrats everywhere lost

we are disgraced by such disgusting, GOP-like swiftboat tactics employed by Obama and his campaign.

Maybe its a good thing. Maybe enough Dem women will get so disgusted with the sexist assholes in the Dem party they will start a third party or force the Dem men into one.

9. The Ferraro flap is now chalked up to OBAMA's swiftboat tactics?

Seems like ol' Geraldine is the one going Rovian on this one.

15. Well 5 racists voted "Ignored" is one of them

[Swamp Rat]

7. Ferraro lost her dignity

10. What's with the hamster, Swampy?

If you ask me, the only good hamster is a dead hamster. Richard Gere is our savior!

[Swamp Rat]

14. That's me!

Ain't I cute! :D

[4_Legs_Good]

11. Amen!

this is a sad, sad day for me. One of my kinda heroes down in smoke.

13. I agree. And she only compounded it with the defensive, shitty comment that...

...she's only being criticized because she's white.

Come on, Ferrarro. :eyes:

[Swamp Rat]

16. Wait, is that something new? Did she continue the BS today?!?

:wow: I just got back from school a few minutes ago.

[Shakespeare]

18. Yup.

She was asked about her initial comment on Fox, and said something to the effect of "well, how about if I say the criticism is only because I'm white?"

Dug her hole a little deeper.

8. Your gunna want some money some day!!

[frazzled]

12. Nobody wins when ugliness like this is put out into the air

It's the old politics of divisiveness ... but it works.

17. in defense of Ms Ferraro on Hardball just now

Andrea Mitchell said she's on a lot od medication right now from having cancer...maybe we should all pray for her instead
