A Racism Surge In America

You remember when Obama was way up in the polls? (Wasn't that like a week ago? - Yes it was [ed.]) Now that he is falling back in the polls Joe Biden knows why it is happening. Racism. It is like a disease. Once other people get infected it is only a matter of (not much) time until you get it too. And then the polls go down. Really. That is how it works. Vast swaths of America are just waking up and saying, "You know I just noticed Obama is black and I could never bring myself to vote for a black man, now that I have noticed."

ABC News' Matthew Jaffe Reports: As Election Day looms just over two weeks away, Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., said Saturday that with Republicans firing "vicious" and "dangerous" attacks at Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., voters are "having a difficult time" opting for the man who would become the nation's first African American president.

"Undecided people are having a difficult time just culturally making the change, making the move for the first African American president in the history of the United States of America," the Democratic vice-presidential nominee said at a San Francisco fundraiser Saturday evening. "So we need to respond. We need to respond at the moment, immediately, not wait, not hang around, not assume any of this won't stick."

I think what they fear most is attacks by the plumbers brigades. And they are vicious and totally unfair. One of the most vicious attacks is repeating what Obama said in response to Joe The Plumber:

When you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody.

Mr. Biden - it is not the racism you need to worry about it is

the socialism

I'd like to see an African-American as president--Thomas Sowell! With Tammy Bruce as his running-mate, to balance the ticket with a lipstrick Lesbian.

Do you think that it is possible that there is a small but non-trivial percentage of Americans that are, at best, hesitant to vote for Obama because of his skin color and/or funny name?

If Barack Obama was black, instead of just playing black, I'd think better of him.

What would Senator Obama have to do to actually *be* black, instead of just "playing" black?

"What would Senator Obama have to do to actually *be* black, instead of just "playing" black?"

No Bell,

Sure. And I'll bet there are people who won't vote for McCain because he is white or Palin because she is a woman or worse, a race mixer for marrying a guy who wasn't all white.

Now the question is: do those numbers change greatly from week to week.

I doubt it.

Have done significant prison time. With brother Rezko's help he may yet become authentically black.

I have little tolerance for "racism surges", and even less tolerance for socialism which will make the majority of us SLAVES to our government.

Socialism is color blind and gender neutral.

"Have done significant prison time."

I see.

No Bell,

Jus keepin it real. You are familiar with popular black culture and the Gs I'm sure. OTOH maybe not.

"Jus keepin it real."

You've certainly made yourself clear in this respect.

I don't know if you read Ace, but "socialist" is a racist code word.

The article he links to couldn't be any funnier if it was written by Iowahawk.
Well, maybe a little funnier, but that says more about Iowahawk than the article.
