Who's afraid of an Obamanomination?

Not me.

And not some Democrat Union-shill that backs Hillary, either, except to the extent that he is afraid Obama will get wtfpwned in the general election.

Normally, I wouldn't quote some wanna-be Hoffa. But this excerpt was too good to skip.

But it was Obama supporters for whom Buffenbarger saved his most vitriolic contempt, and he proved that the Democratic Party’s coalition is nothing if not fragile. Channeling Howard Beale from the movie "Network," he yelled into the microphone, “Give me a break! I've got news for all the latte-drinking, Prius- driving, Birkenstock-wearing, trust fund babies crowding in to hear him speak! This guy won't last a round against the Republican attack machine. He's a poet, not a fighter.”

Savor the blue on blue, morons. Savor it.

I have to say that, for the most part, I agree with Buffenbarger's assessment of Senator Obama's cult like band of followers, as well as his assessment of what will happen to Obama in November.

And as any of you regular blog readers might suspect, I just have one problem with it.

What's the dude got against poets? Am I gonna have to smack-down some Union goon with dope rhymes and bustin' iambic pentameters to get a little respect for my peeps?

Also, I did intentionally connect the word "Obama" to "nomination" to form "obamanomination" in the title because: 1) it's fun to say (try it..."o-ba-ma-nom-i-na-tion"), 2) it sounds like "abomination" and 3)BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT POETS DO!
