"Apparently the rule is that under no circumstance can Republicans make any allusion to the romantic/sexual activities of any Democrat without being guilty of some horrible "-ism":"

I really, really hope the producers of the Ford commercial can ridicule this attempt to find racism where no reasonable person would. I'm so sick of politicians, who, when they have no other way to combat the opposing side's point, scream and whine and moan that they've been vicimized because of their skin color, or their cultural background.

Yep....
Post Cynthia McKinney, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Jefferson - Democrat of New Orleans, Ray (Chocolate City) Nagin, Congressional Black Caucus, etc. etc......

I've decided that I will vote for NO minority that hasn't PROVED by word and deed they've overcome and gotten beyond their "victimization"...

CHARACTER and ABILITY should be the primary attributes, not skin color or family "connections".

The young Mr. Ford -- fails in every category as a worthy Senator. We already have enough assholes in the Senate. We don't need another.
