Nia-Malika Henderson accuses Herman Cain of wanting to live in a post-racial world while playing the "race card." Unreal.
"Well, I think, if we could focus a little bit on Herman Cain. I think Herman Cain is on one hand saying we're in a post-racial country, but at the same time he seems to play the race card when it comes to talking about African-Americans. Talking about in the ways in which they vote for Democrats. It's not something that he would, for instance, say about white evangelicals who vote in overwhelming numbers for Bush. Something like 75 or 80%. And for McCain, something like 73%," Nia-Malika Henderson told Chris Matthews on MSNBC's "Hardball."
"So, I think there is still a grappling this country still has to do with race, but again we'll see obviously on Sunday -- this really moving event with the dedication of the Martin Luther King Jr. memorial and President Obama there as this dream from kind of a book end to Martin Luther King's dream," she added.
Using Henderson's logic, Obama is a chapter in Martin Luther King Jr's dream while Herman Cain is just a race baiter.

vs.
OBAMA
IIRC, the claim to fame for ChocoLite was that it was lighter because it was "Whipped." :-)
By the way, can anyone photoshop that top one to read "9-9-9% CAIN"...? Cheers!
IOW, Obama did what this partisan media shill describes, and the writer misattributes this to Herman Cain. Thanks i88schwartz.
