Wolves in Democratic clothing

Karen Seifert, a volunteer from New York, was outside of the largest polling location in Lackawanna County , Pa., on primary day when she was pressed by a Clinton volunteer to explain her backing of Obama. "I trust him," Seifert replied. According to Seifert, the woman pointed to Obama's face on Seifert's T-shirt and said: "He's a half-breed and he's a Muslim. How can you trust that?"

There's bomb threats to three Obama campaign offices in Indiana.

At Scranton's annual Saint Patrick's Day parade, some of the green Obama signs distributed by staffers were burned along the parade route. That was the first signal that this wasn't exactly Obama country. There would be others. In a letter to the editor published in a local paper, Tunkhannock Borough Mayor Norm Ball explained his support of Hillary Clinton this way: "Barack Hussein Obama and all of his talk will do nothing for our country. There is so much that people don't know about his upbringing in the Muslim world. His stepfather was a radical Muslim and the ranting of his minister against the white America, you can't convince me that some of that didn't rub off on him.

On Election Day in Kokomo, Indiana, a group of black high school students were holding up Obama signs along U.S. 31, a major thoroughfare. As drivers cruised by, a number of them rolled down their windows and yelled out a common racial slur for African Americans, according to Obama campaign staffers.

And the worst part about all this is who's doing and saying these things...they're Democrats. I must, no, I am naive. I thought we (Democrats) just knew better. But I have to remember where this is coming from. It's coming from the Heartland, home of American values, and citizenship. I don't know why this is happening or why this issue have relevance in the 21st century. I guess I need to know what has happened to the Democrats? Have these fools been hiding among us all this time?

It's just disheartening to see and hear. People afraid of change, afraid of movement and diversity. This should be a wake up call to us and America. If these people think they're Americans then they need to take a new achievement test. They're are social terrorists and advocates of ignorance. But I still think they can be helped.

We need to have a dialogue about these racial fears and unwillingness to change. Also, I think Hillary should to talk to her people. These are her supporters, her fans. She should address these issues and possibly distance herself from that kind of support. It doesn't speak well of her campaign. This reminds me of some of our family structures. There's always a decent side, troubled side, maybe a bad side, and a forgotten side. But they are still family. I just hope in the end we (Democrats) can join together and focus on what's important...electing a president. Regardless of sex or race.
