I heard an Obama clip yesterday where he said that there are racists in this country who won't vote for a black man, but they probably wouldn't vote for me for political reasons either.

Neatly consigning all racists to the conservative side of the spectrum.

rendell said there were "some" whites who would not vote for a black person, hardly the same thing.

How is it if you think Obama loses 5% of the white for being black, it's racist, but if he gains 90% of the black vote for being black, it's not racist?

All I know is that the exit polls said that 13% said "race was a factor" and 3/4 of them voted for Clinton.
