Quo Bono
When Cicero defended, I believe, Sextus Roscius he asked the question quo bono, who benefits.
In this case, who benefits in the races to come; who benefits from Senator Obama's race becoming an issue?
Senator Obama already receives maximum support from the black vote.
In order to prevail in the primaries AND the GE he needs to gain in the white vote. So, why would the Obama campaign, a campaign that up until now ran circles around the Clinton campaign, bring the issue of race to the fore?
The logic remains to this day, when one discovers who benefits from an action, most likely you have found the cause.
