The truth is there remains voter resistance to Obama that to some degree is based on race.

I don't like statements like the above. How about using a statement like: 'some degree of inexperience' instead?

What a classy photo.

Or that he is to the left of almost anybody in U.S. politics EVER?

I would gladly support a candidate of any race that I thought was qualified and whose policies agreed with my own Constitutional outlook.

The DBM’s just cannot help but try to call anyone who resists the Obamassiah a racist.

funny but his own words should be enough to throw himself under the bus.

I hear you. I thought to myself that if Powell or Rice ran, I would probably vote for them (although to be honest, I do not know their position on all the issues). In any case, it has nothing to do with the color of skin and all to do with where a person stands.

What about those who vote for Obama because of his race, e.g., Obama pulled more than 90% of the black vote against Hillary. Equating opposition ["resistance"] to Obama because of race is a canard. Novak is up to his old tricks.
