    So, Ferraro has a history of saying "if he weren't black he wouldn't be in this position" ...

    Shrug that one off, Hil.

    And singing "Solidarity forever" ain't cuttin' it.

    And you can take the victim card, and shove it.

    Ferraro knows something about being a token.


    I'm actually feeling pretty good about the Dems. A painfull, slow death to the Clinton Era (From "Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow to "Yesterday, Once More." will break the party free from its traditional power dynamic, in much the same way the GOP is seeing the break-up of its dynamic. Had to laugh though seeing Romney running for VP. Sure the Wall Street crowd would like Romney, but he didn't really play in the South. McCain doesn't need Romney in those states Romney would help in.

    I read it as a figure of speech . . . but you could have made a wiser, more careful, choice.

    A lot of figures of speech exist that perfectly describe what Ferraro should do without introducing something like that into discussion of a campaign that so clearly has had race and gender as major issues for many voters.

    Racist POS.

    She hasn't known what hell is -- until now.

    If it makes you feel better, I considered "Gerry Ferraro should die in a fire," but rejected it.

    I'll open it to the floor. What should Gerry Ferraro do?

    I'll settle for STFU and GTFO, Zeke.

    Gerry ferraro should . . .

    - Eat poison.

    - Go back to the nursing home.

    - just shut up, because we all thought she was already dead anyway.

    ... remind me who she was, again?

    And then GTFA.
