NY Magazine's Heilemann: McCain Plans to 'Viciously' Stir Up Racism

The more black militants the dems put out in the media the less votes they will get as they turn off guilt ridden white people.

[Fundamentally Fair]

And somewhere, in places like New Jersey, Ohio and Pennsylvania, 10 or 12 percent of the vote said race that was an important factor and voted for Hillary Clinton.

Never mind the 99.9% of black that voted/will vote for Obama. No that's not racism.

OK...99.9% may be an exaggeration...;)

I am pleased that he has said this. This is a point in McCain’s favor.

My own political views have reached a point that I won’t vote for a politician who has not been called “racist,” “sexist,” or “homophobic.”

If a politician has not made enemies among the race pimps, the feminists, or the homosexuals, he has no principles or guts and is not worthy of his office.

[Bahbah]

LOL :)

The New York magazine is not the New Yorker magazine.

[counterpunch]

I am aware of that. However, it is a) liberal, and b) supposedly trying to make the same heavy-handed point as NY Magazine.

[flowerplough]

Actually, it’s the coastal, liberal, media elites like this Heilemann that plan to ‘viciously’ stir up racism, so that they can try to blame it on McCain and his people.

**The New York magazine is not the New Yorker magazine.**

to paraphrase ...

Manure of a different color ...

[BooksForTheRight.com]

They can’t hold themselves back from calling us racist. They can’t help it, they’re liberal and demented.

[toddlintown]

“Manure of a different color ...”

The New Yorker is much richer and denser in bovine droppings. The New York is a wannabee.

[Bob J]

He said conservatives were more racist than the population at large. In effect he called the population of America racist, but there are more racists among conservatives than liberals.

Probably a true statement, but that doesn’t make YOU a racist.

[Beckwith]

Obama will get 90% of the black vote.

It is as evil to vote FOR someone because of their skin color, as it is to vote AGAINST someone because of their skin color.

[Dr.Deth]

Boy, wait until the rubes find out BHO is black... he’ll really be in trouble then!

[palomonte]

amen - but that apparently only applies to white folks.

[Liberty Valance]

So, when 95% of black people polled state that they are going to vote for Obama, that is considered what ... enlightenment? Surely no one would consider that racism.

[Clemenza]

Well, most of the white racists I meet here in the northeast are usually downmarket independents or “Reagan Democrats” (the few that are left), rather than movement conservatives.

[1Old Pro]

I’d vote for a Black man for President if he possessed even the minimal amount of experience and wasn’t a Left-Wing American hating radical.

But they blame everything and everything EXCEPT the fact that their candidates are extremist liberasl which most people detest if it’s understood.

So, we’ll blame election machines, swiftboaters, and this time racism.

[Irish Eyes]

As I see it McCain is the only one not bringing up race.. The dems, the MSM and the pollsters and Obama are the ones bring up the race issue.

[ru4liberty]

He’s full of $#!+! The clip you showed was edited. Did Kiran ask him to provide examples of his accusations? Or has she completely sold out since she left FNC?
