    rtf100: "Obama has just experienced his first "Macaca" moment. I have no idea what's going to happen. All I know is that McCain is looking better each day."

    Yeah, because Obama making choosing one or two words poorly while speaking sympathetically about an entire class of people is exactly like pointing to an individual and mocking him on the basis of his ethnicity.
