More Big Losses For Obama In Kentucky and Arkansas
I have to wonder what's going on inside Barack Obama's arrogant, narcissistic head since he lost 41 percent of the West Virginia Democratic primary vote to Texas jailbird Keith Russell Judd, and now 40% of the vote in Arkansas to attorney John Wolfe, and 42 percent (and 67 out of 120 counties) in Kentucky to the "uncommitted" option, or in other words- no-one. The same thing happened in Oklahoma, he only won 57 percent and 21 percent of North Carolina voters also voted for the "uncommitted" option.
Naturally, there are those who are chalking it up to racism, the only reason liberals believe people don't like Obama, but these are fellow Democrats, so I guess that would just prove that some Democrats are as racist as some Republicans.
These losses are just going to prompt Obama to dig for dirt, and this election is going to get very nasty.

Biden Says West Virginians Who Voted For Convict "Frustrated" "Angry"
The best part of the last 4 years of the Obama/Biden tenure has been the amusement factor with the clueless, loose cannon Biden.
Apparently, Biden totally understands why West Virginian Democrats turned out in droves to vote for Texas convict, Keith Judd, who gave Obama a run for his money with a whopping 41 percent of the vote and a potential of at least one delegate (which he won't get, for various reasons.) He doesn't blame them at all, they're just angry and frustrated over the economy.
Darn right they're angry. They're angry because of Obama's job-killing war on coal, the main industry and employment opportunity for West Virginians. Of course, that stance is changing, and Biden can be seen flip-flopping on the issue in the amusing RNC produced video below.
As Biden and Obama are apt to do, he blames all the current economic recession problems on the previous administration, but believes that we will eventually wise-up and realize that Obama's 'approach' not Romney's will get us back on track with regards to 'employment and prosperity'. I guess he just needs another four years to do that.
All I know is that the past four years have been the worst, economically speaking, for me, and I know I won't be voting for him. Hopefully, those who voted for him last time around won't buy into Obama's spin and hype- again.

“Look, I come from a household where whenever there’s a recession, somebody around my grandpop or my dad’s table lost a job. A brother, a sister a friend, a neighbor," Biden said. "When you’re out of work, man, it’s a depression."
"And so I don’t blame people. They’re frustrated, they’re angry," Biden said.

Texas Convict Wins 40 Percent of West Virginia Democratic Vote Against Obama

This isn't the first time Judd has run for office, though. Apparently, he has had political aspirations since 1996, which was the first time he ran for POTUS, and he claims he has run every time since. He also supposedly ran for Governor of New Mexico, and mayor of Albuquerque. In 2008 he managed to get on the Idaho presidential primary ballot and received 1.7 percent of the vote, coming in 3rd. He received no delegates back then, and it's doubtful he will this time around either.
Attracting at least 15 per cent of the vote would normally qualify a candidate for a delegate to the Democratic National Convention. But state Democratic Party Executive Director Derek Scarbro said no one has filed to be a delegate for Judd. The state party also believes that Judd has failed to file paperwork required of presidential candidates, but officials continue to research the matter, Mr Scarbro said.
I'm sure W.V.Democratic Party officials are terribly embarrassed that a ponytailed, convict in Texas was able win 4 out of 10 votes in the primary against their beloved Barack, but they're not the only ones. Mike Stuart, Republican Chairman found it embarrasing too.
"Keith Judd's performance is embarrassing for Obama and our great state."But West Virginia was never an Obama state, Hillary Clinton was the preferred candidate in the 2008 elections.
"I voted against Obama," said Ronnie Brown, a 43-year-old electrician from Cross Lanes who called himself a conservative Democrat. "I don't like him. He didn't carry the state before and I'm not going to let him carry it again."Although Judd's is the highest percentage win, to date, of all Democratic candidates that are running against Obama, others have won quite a few votes; which just demonstrates how dissatisfied some voters are with Obama.
When asked which presidential candidate he voted for, Mr Brown said, "That guy out of Texas."
In Oklahoma, anti-abortion protester Randall Terry got 18 per cent of the primary vote. A lawyer from Tennessee, John Wolfe, pulled nearly 18,000 votes in the Louisiana primary. In Alabama, 18 per cent of Democratic voters chose "uncommitted" in the primary rather than vote for Obama. In Tuesday's North Carolina primary, 21 per cent of Democratic voters marked "no preference."Mitt Romney garnered 69 percent of the vote in the GOP primary. Since McCain won West Virginia in 2008, we can safely assume Romney will win it this year.
UPDATE: Looks like Judd received over 41% of the vote Obama 59%.
