<description><![CDATA[<p>I suspect Obama's election would result in a short-term spike in Klan membership.  The long-term result will be further declines in Klan membership and credibility.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>This is kinda weird and cool and funny and we should welcome (but not welcome their support... BUT...</p>

<p>HILLARY HAS DESTROYED THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY!</p>

<p>So, it don't really matter.  It's only several months until the election so there's not enough time to put the party back together or for Obama to get any kind of name recognition or...  Damn you Hillary!</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>My parents have misgivings about voting for Obama, and I think quite honestly that their misgivings include feelings about race.

Maybe their fears are unfounded. </p>]]></description>
