Racism on the trail
The Washington Post explores racism encountered by Obama volunteers, something the campaign may have preferred kept quiet, while bloggers on the right see liberal media bias.

    The racial issue is going to be big and furthermore, McCain is going to benefit from it. He may even come out looking like a hero because he is going to tell all the racists where to go giving the impression that he's so nice. These Republicans are masters at this kind of a game. This is the game plan: Their core lobs their slurs and McCain will talk about how awful that kind of thing is. Blah, blah, blah. McCain will benefit from all the controversy by looking like he is a peace maker saving the country from a possible meltdown if the other candidate is elected.

    After Bush was elected a second time amidst all the Iraq turmoil, I began to realize that Americans can be totally self-destructive and incredibly gullible. Yeah, I'm negative about November...I think I have good reason to be.
