Gergen is admitting that democrats are racists. Certainly he doesn't expect Republicans to vote for a liberal dem, so for us it's a party/ideology thing. Democrats, OTOH, should be true to their party but they won't because they cannot vote for the black guy.

It's about time somebody in the MSM called democrats on their racism.

[Right Wing Assault]

No, I blame racism for Obama even being in the race. If black folks didn’t automatically vote for him at a 90+% rate, he would be a footnote in history.

Only two times politicians get that high a vote: dictators with no opponent in the election and Republicans in Utah.

[mylife]

Gergen is the biggest hand wringing closet democrap on the planet! The guy is left of Dicky Morris

[mylife]

And NEVER forget...Its OK to call GWB “chimpy” because racism is a one way street. ;)

[cookcounty]

With a 100% ADA rating, only an ignorant Republican would think of voting for him if he was white, so whatever racism there is, is in the Democrat Party, -—especially among its Liberals.

[cpdiii]

Forget Gergen. He's the cheapest political whore in Washington. He'll say anything for the highest bidder, who appears to be the leftwing a-hole this time

The comparison of Gergen to working ladies has caused much angst and offense to the ladies. They do have standards, Gergen has none.

[Continental Soldier]

In my dream, I see some youthful demonstrator walking up to Gergen and slamming him in the face with a pie just as he is about to make another of his absurd, self-ingratiating statements. Then I wake up and wonder if that demonstrator took the time to kick Cafferty in the balls on the way out. Such is the nature of dreams, I guess... :)

How about ‘patriotism’ AND economics as an issue. . .are Marxists patriotic?

[cricket]

Hard to figure how someone can be 'so close' to the idiological lines; yet never cross any of them. Gergen is like 'vanilla' and worse; without the 'vanilla'. . .

[IndianPrincessOK]

“Race is arguably the biggest issue in this election, and it’s one that nobody’s talking about... Yet the polls remain close. Doesn’t make sense...unless it’s race.”

How about blaming it on the “smart” voters that are leary of a radical, white hating wife, Michelle, junior Senator, with Jeremiah Wright, Farrakhan, Father Phleger, Ayers....he calls friends. Yeah....it;s race....race to see Obama done for and no more!!!

[ladyvet]

Good Lord! I am so sick of hearing about how us redneck whites won’t vote for a black guy or gal. It’s total B.S. Give me Michele Steele and I would crawl over broken glass to support him!

[mabelkitty]

Then I guess our new mantra will be:

“If people don’t vote for McCain/Palin, then they are clearly sexist.”

[cricket]

“Race ... is, the big gorilla in the room...”/ROFL! Did Gergen just call Obama a big MONKEY? Didn’t Howard Cosell get fired for a similar offense?/

lol. . .and Howard just said 'little monkey'. That said; it has always been 'clear'; but never moreso; that 'the racist log is in the eye of the beholder - observer. . .commenter; and we know who they are.

[PaleoBob]

This whole racism thing has gotten incredibly boring. I mean, it’s cause to YOL (yawn out loud). Aaaahhhhhhh...

[Finalapproach29er]

is, the big gorilla in the room
*********

An unfortunate choice of words by David.

David should be charged by the race police for that one.

shame

[uncbob]

Race will be an issue for democrats

Trust me —the non college elite —working blue collar types that live in the crime ridden big cities are not the knee jerk democrats that can be counted on this election

hell here in a Phila burb the local democrat committeeman does NOT have his usual sign on his lawn

[kilowhskey]

Gergen is simply setting the table for November 4th when 0bama is defeated. He wants Americans to believe that race and not socialism was the cause.

[mrsmel]

You know what? I’m not voting for Obama, I wouldn’t vote for Obama if he was the only one running, and if the left wants to call it racism, then whatever. Some of them may really believe it, some of them may just be being cynical, but all them say if Obama doesn’t get elected, it’s because of racism. I’ve had conservative values all my life, and now all of a sudden I’m a racist for not voting for a white-hating Marxist. OK, I’m a racist. I’m a racist. I’ll say it every day, and if I ever get the chance to be asked by the media why I wouldn’t vote for Obama, I’m going to tell them that despite a record of years of voting for conservatives, it’s because I’m a racist. Next issue!

[mrsmel]

Liberals are apparently trying to come up with yet another conspiracy theory to explain a potential Obama loss.

Yep, they know it's coming, they smell it, they sense it-and it's coming. Obama is going to lose. And all we're going to hear for weeks is "racism!",and I'm going to shrug my shoulders and say, "Yep, you're probably right", because no amount of reasoning will make these people admit that it was because Americans didn't want a Marxist white-hating LOSER in the White House "changing" this country into his, Louis Farrakhan's, Sharpton's, and Wright's personal playground for wreaking their vengeance on white folks and rich folks (all the same to them. They themselves don't count, just like in those African Marxist nations where it's always "for the people" but the latest dictator always gets rich out of it. I won't be surprised to see all of them wearing some silly newly-designed uniforms with lots of shiny gold epaulettes, and more medals than Michael Phelps).

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Republicans voting for the R candidate are obviously racist because they simply won’t put Race ahead of Party Affiliation. What a distorted view of reality.
