Here is a liberal BRAGGING that his little state was a slave state. Will his campaign literature feature racially derogatory cartoons of Secretary of State Rice? Is one of his staffers, as we speak, harvesting racial insults from the Arab press? Maybe one of his ancestors actually owned slaves. That would apparently catapult him ahead of Madame Hillary.

Let a Republican start bragging about how slavery was outlawed in the country because of the very first Republican president and you can bet your a$$ that the dems and the media would be screaming bloody murder.
