    Here is one example (I have more) of the liberal media playing the race card on Barry's behalf


    ABC's Cuomo Again Frets About Racist American Voters
    By Scott Whitlock | January 2, 2008 - 13:15 ET

    For the second time in less than a month, "Good Morning America" co-host Chris Cuomo asked a Democratic presidential candidate to speculate about the inherent racism of American voters. Talking with John Edwards on Wednesday's edition of the program, the ABC journalist wondered about Thursday's Iowa caucus. He inquired, "When you think people get into the room, do you think race or gender may play an unspoken role in the caucus voting?"

    Clearly, this is a topic that weighs heavily on Cuomo. On December 20, he spoke to Senator Barack Obama and asked, "What do you think the bigger obstacle is for you in becoming president, the Clinton campaign machine or America's inherent racists, racism?" In fact, GMA has a long history of harping on how bigoted America is. Since November 13, 2006, "Good Morning America" has featured the question, in some form or another, a total of five times.
    On November 13 of '06, co-host Diane Sawyer asked Obama if America is "secretly...more racist or more sexist?" She repeated the question a day later, this time to liberal New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd. On February 16, 2007, the ABC anchor introduced a report on the same subject by darkly speculating on "what Americans really feel inside."

    I find it quite refreshing, actually, that people are finally talking openly about race. For so long whites at least were supposed to pretend there IS no such thing as race, and never mention it.

    It's a good idea, what Cuomo is doing, I think --- openly say it's a factor.

    Because it is, on both sides, and there are reasons for that which ought to be discussed.

    Actually I think this article says it all.


    http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/22/us...gewanted=print

    In a campaign where demographics seem to be destiny, one of the most striking factors is the segregation of voters by age. In state after state, older voters have formed a core constituency for Mrs. Clinton, who is 60, while younger voters have coalesced around Mr. Obama, who is 46. Age has been one of the most consistent indicators of how someone might vote — more than sex, more than income, more than education. Only race is a stronger predictor of voting than age, and then only if a voter is black, not if he or she is white.
    Racism?? You betcha, but not from whites.

    And just think, after Barry comes stumbling and bumbling out of the convention the deflated nominee, all those elderly votes Hillary has will flock to McCain.

    Exit polling in PA shows 92% of blacks voted for Obama. Among whites, 60% voted for Hillary. Yup: blacks are racist.
