Holly, you should see the accompanying picture in the print version. A room full of staffers and all of them young and white. I guess Senator Obama's commitment to diversity stops when it might affect him instead of having a negative impact of everyone else. Senator obama is smart enough to know to get the rich white kids from UChicago,Northwestern, and the Ivy League and to not let the HBCU students anywhere near his campaign.

What is odd is that the civil service and th executive branch has a higher percetnage of black workers versus the private sector. I wonder how Senator Obama reconciles is views.

Holly's tirades on the evil of Obama are really getting tiresome.

Obama has alot of women in powerful positions and has from the start. The problem is that some reporters seem upset ever since Obama went on his tour. They went along hoping for a Dukakis in a Tank moment(s) and the 'rookie' fooled them. He came away presidential and successful.
They had to scrap the 'in over his head' line and took up the arrogant and presumptuous one.
Ever since the tour ended they have been trashing him and spinning things negative.
What was once said that he had an amazingly disciplined and well run campaign is now secretive and controlliing. blah blah blah.
I guess that study is correct. He may get alot of coverage but, 75% of it is negative.

I forgot, is Susan Rice a woman? I mean, she's only the top foreign policy adviser to Barack Obama and did more than anybody else to organize the trip abroad.

Oh, and Samantha Power is a woman, though she did call Hillary a monster. I guess she's not a real woman then.

I wonder who these "some Democrats on Capitol Hill."
