Obama is too Liebermanesque for me ...

The bottom line is that it is not acceptable to falsely accuse patriotic Americans who have fought very hard for minorities and African-Americans through their lives, of being racists. Moreover, when prominent people make false charges of racism, they severely undermine the civil rights movement and those who are fighting to reverse racism in American society.
Unlike Eriposte I am NOT convinced that Sen. Obama is NOT
a ... bigot, somewhat racist and someone who likes to repeatedly and falsely smear other people as being racists.
Obama is using Republican character assassination tactics within the Democratic Party. He's taking some of Hilary's strengths and twisting and lying in such a way to make the opposite seem the case. And he does not hold his people accountable for their actions and statements (where have we seen this management style before?).

I will NOT vote for Obama if he is the nominee no matter what unless he immediately changes this behavior. A Liebermanesque as president will not be an improvement. It will just succeed in bringing the Democrats down to the Republican level.

UPDATE: Obama, Clinton take a detour to the high road
OK, good, keep it up and really impress us!
