I've read a few reports around the blogosphere about Obama's "race baiting". It's fairly obvious at this point that that's what his campaign is doing. I think it will backfire eventually. Why? Because many white older liberals that did fight during the main Civil Rights Era will be offended. There are unsung heroes in that group that gave their lives. They're not in the history books either.
Obama needs to stop circulating the notion, through surrogates, that the Clinton's are card-carrying racists. He's implying that white Democrats in that age demographic are also racists. That demographic won't vote for McCain. They just might stay home on election day, though. That would be a disaster for this country. I disagree with those who say they simply cannot vote for Obama now. What they're threatening to do is give us eight more years of Bush through McCain. These are the same folks that trashed Nader for the same reason.
Getting a Democrat in the White House is imperative for the survival of this country. It's not about hurt feelings, it's about all of us. Suck it up and vote for the Democratic nominee.
It's the patriotic thing to do.
