Borganomic politics from The Politico
Barack Obama’s stop at Cape Fear BBQ and Chicken in Fayetteville, N.C., this afternoon underscored the continued resistance of some voters to his candidacy — and his identity. The trip, according to a pool report, offered “some powerful and at times ugly interaction.â€
Resistance? Why do I get flashbacks to Star Trek?
Betty Waylett, 76, told Obama, “You’re doing a great job.†She told your pooler that she is a Republican but that she will vote for Obama because she likes the way he speaks and his manner. Waylett, who is white, said Obama’s race is not a factor. “I never thought about it one way or the other.â€
A good, another of those “Republicans” voting for the most far left Democrat to ever run for president, and, damn, those are some good reasons to vote for someone. Maybe for elementary school president.
