Senior Obama campaign adviser David Axelrod said Sunday that handing the vice presidential nomination to Cuban-American Sen. Marco Rubio (R., Fla.) would be an “insult to Hispanics.” What's wrong with this guy Axelrod? Everyone says he is supposed to be smart. Why should Rubio be an "insult" to Hispanics? Actually, it sounds sort of dumb. He probably thinks that since Republicans are "racist", they could only nominate Rubio for "racist" reasons - and therefore, the nomination is an insult. The guy forgets that not everyone shares his mechanical political assumptions - and ends up looking foolish.
