Has the cock crowed twice?
Not every Democrat has found the Barack Obama nomination to their taste, according to Politico:
The presidential race may be topic A, B and C in Washington these days, but some people are just too busy to think about it ” particularly, it seems, centrist Democrats from conservative districts, who aren’t exactly eager to align themselves with Sen. Barack Obama.
Rep. Travis Childers, elected just weeks ago in a Mississippi special election, hasn’t endorsed anyone in the presidential race yet. “We have had our head down at work, trying to get our feet on the ground up here,” said Childers’ chief of staff, Brad Morris. “The presidential politics just has not been on our mind.”
Rep. Heath Shuler, a freshman Democrat from right-leaning North Carolina, has also been too busy to endorse. After Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton carried his district in the North Carolina primary, Shuler said he would cast his superdelegate vote for her at the Democratic convention.
Now that Clinton is out of the race? “We’ve gone back to his work up there in the House,” said Shuler spokesman Andrew Whalen. “We’re not really too focused on the presidential [race].”

NYD- Not that you have been accused of this, nor do you act in this manner, but your decision is not a racist one, it is a decision that you have come to based on research, personal needs etc. Basically, any of us that don’t support Obama are racists…That will be the battle cry of the summer.
You very well change your mind and support Obama, but I would bet, race isn’t a part of that decision..

Pam: I have said the cock crowed a long time ago, it’s not race, but it is about honesty, integrity and loyalty. Well enough said!!! The Demo-rats and the Obama’s are the least loyal bunch of cockamamie fools that would knife their own mother in the back or throw her from the train, or their grandmother under the bus and never look back. Heartless!
I’ve never seen such an evil display of hatred ever in this country before now, and three guesses who started it all! First two don’t count. Cock-a-doodle do!

I started out supporting Edwards after a speech he gave in NYC about combatting terrorism. I worked to get him on the ballot in NYC. After his campaign tanked, I begrudging started supporting Mrs. Clinton. Now Democrats are expected to head over to Obama country.
This will be one of the first elections that my vote will be the lessor of two bums.
