This is the MSM’s attempt to explain away the beat down he received in PA, as well as what he will receive in WV and KY. Ya have to love it. They are so so predictable.

One caller, Switzer remembers, said he couldn't possibly vote for Obama and concluded: "Hang that darky from a tree!"

Is this for real? I'm skeptical.

BO was originally billed as a "black" candidate. Then was billed as "too black or too white". Etc. What he offers in the way of what he will do for America is fluff, outside of his handlers, minions, and the press who continue to bill him as a Black.

So, reactions against his "blackness" are billed now as "racism". Gee, whadda suprise, eh?

Ward Connerly championed CA's Prop 209's -- Repealing Preferential Quotas (Affirmative Action) involving state monies. The press beat the living snot out of him, and the black groups called him an Uncle Tom. Cartoonists portrayed him wearing a white KKK hood. Ya think the same squawking now about "racism" encountered against BO were fighting off the grotesque treatment of Ward Connerly? Eh?

Obama is billed and promoted as "black", and his supporters are shocked, I tell you *shocked* that people are responding DIRECTLY to EXACTLY the issue his handlers have promoted. And now wanna cry crocadile tears over "all that racism goin on..."

Fer cryin' out loud! BO hasn't really supplied anything of substance for people to respond to on ISSUES. They have been told repeatedly it's all about our "First Black President".

The BO Platform (of Race) is equivalent to a "When Did you Stop Beating Your Wife" set-up.

And this coverage of "reactions" to the "Blackness of Obama" campaign would be funny if it weren't so pathetically stupid and campaign serving.

For all the hope and excitement Obama's candidacy is generating,

Made as a statement of fact from the "objective" reporter.

"I guess they are not talking about “Reverend Wright’s” racism"

That is correct! Racism was never interjected into the campaign until BO's spiritual advisor Rev.Wright brought it in and BO didn't reject it outright. It festered into a 'blacks blame whitey' for everything bad that ever happened to themselves. The chickens have come home to roost and it's way past time.

Oh, so Democrats are racists, huh??

Exactly. They are phoning, canvassing PRIMARY voters.

His rantings are probably what caused her to quit going to that church. If the public found out, she would lose the ratings to the boatload of non-black viewers. She has been awfully silent lately, which makes me think she is second guessing her stumping for Obama with the Wright scandal.

Hillary’s people are still at it. It’s a “two-fer”: They sabotage Obama, and lay the blame on America being too racist to be ready for a black President yet

Way back when it was apparent that Obambi was a contender, I tried to get any lib that I knew to make this bet with me, even with odds.

If Obama is the nominee, the dhimmirats will run on the idea that anyone that doesn’t support him is a racist.

No takers. They know who they are.

And so it begins...the MSM effort to closet every living soul who refuses to admit the magificance of the false messiah as a racist.

Just mention the name "Clarence Thomas" to a leftist.

You'll not hear more disgust or contempt than you will from a leftist victim black person when you mention that you would vote for someone like Clarence Thomas for president.

Always a trusty left-wing Washington Post calling card - the dark fear of racists, Nazis, so-called extremist Christians, etc... just lurking around the corner to upset their Golden Boy Obama.

False claims of racism are more common than the real thing. Especially in a case like this where there is no way to verify.
