An observation
I have no way of knowing this, but it makes a sort of sense to me at the moment.
I betcha there are people- older whites living near big cities, or in small, American Taliban enclaves, who have an Obama sign or bumper sticker hidden away in the garage. And I betcha, if the sun sets November 4th with a black man about to become president, they will be out in front of the house at dark-thirty, hammering those fuckers into the ground, to ward off what they fear to be a raging, pistol firing, car burning BET marathon of crazy black people in the streets, torching anything with the word “McCain” or an American flag on it. At this precise moment, they don’t care about John McCain- hell, at this point, nobody seems to care about his old skeleton- but they are positively terrified of an OBAMANATION.
Heh.
