CNN pwnzored by readers

[sigma7]

So CNN dedicated a bit of its lead package yesterday to the idea that black female voters face a unique quandary about whether to vote for the black candidate or the female candidate. Bad form. Five hundred points from Hufflepuff.

But then they posted a story about the resultant deserved backlash for being so superficial and condescending, including an e-mailer named Tiffany who puts it thusly: "Duh, I'm a black woman and here I am at the voting booth. Duh, since I'm illiterate I'll pull down the lever for someone. Hm... Well, he black so I may vote for him... oh wait she a woman I may vote for her... What Ise gon' do? Oh lordy!"

Okay, 200 points for posting that story, but you're still in the hole.

I'll toss 'em back another 50 for quoting the white male who said something like "Well, since Edwards is out, I'm also stuck between voting for my race with Clinton or my gender with Obama".
