She just held an honorary post in Clinton's campaign to help with the fundraising, so her quitting can't really be considered on par with Obama's aide resigning. In a letter Ferraro wrote to Clinton, she said: Quote:"Dear Hillary, I am stepping down from your finance committee so I can speak for myself and you can continue to speak for yourself about what's at stake in this campaign. The Obama campaign is attacking me to hurt you. I won't let that happen. Thank you for everything you've done and continue to do to make this a better world for my children and grandchildren. You have my deep admiration and respect, Gerry." http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080312/ap_on_el_pr/obama_ferraro;_ylt=Ar4iJTbjFYi1tAWPyt8WG.Gs0NUE With the empty rhetoric coming out of Obama's mouth when it comes to finding answers for the real problems facing our country, I would tend to agree with Ferraro that any other type of candidate would be taken less seriously. After all, you can drop in on any discussion about who is going to vote for what candidate and you can find more than enough voters who are voting for Obama because he is black. Whether discussing it is taboo for whatever reason, an unbiased and unemotional observer of the hoopla surrounding the two Democratic candidates finds little substance and plenty of evidence to believe that many Clinton supporters are there because she possesses certain reproductive equipment and there are many Obama supporters who are there because he possesses a certain shade of skin color. I am an Independent, so I have even found plenty of evidence to suggest that McCain is a very poor choice for our country's highest office--evidence I hope finds its way to the voting public before November. ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING
