Exactly. I would go so far as to say that if a person is racist he may not rightly call him or herself a Republican. The Republican party and all its members who I know eschew such views. JLA

Is it just the "anecdotal" view of a Republican gubernatorial candidate or is it something more? (btw, just what was the stand that he took on this issue? Or are we just assuming what it was, because we all know what it would have been anyway? :-) )

The top Democratic leaders (Clinton, Gore, Gephardt et. al.) would have no problems coming out strongly in favor of such a legislation. In fact, they would have added that it is about time that South Carolina entered the 20th century!

But would the top Republican leaders (Lott, Gingrich, DeLay et. al) have the balls to come out openly and strongly in support of the legislation? I think not. And therein lies the rest of the story...

Dipy.
