[history]
It's a contender, anyway: the Associated Press claims that Sarah Palin's criticism of Barack Obama's relationship with Bill Ayers was racist!
By claiming that Democrat Barack Obama is "palling around with terrorists" and doesn't see the U.S. like other Americans, vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin targeted key goals for a faltering campaign. And though she may have scored a political hit each time, her attack was unsubstantiated and carried a racially tinged subtext that John McCain himself may come to regret. ...

It’s way too early to see where all this is going. If enough people buy into the Obama fiction we are being fed, I will become convinced that we really have become a nation of groupies.

When the McCain campaign ran an ad that had a white woman in it, it was denounced as racist. When it ran an ad that had an African-American man (Franklin Raines) in it, it was denounced as racist. Now the McCain campaign links Obama to a white man, the former terrorist, and still anti-American, Bill Ayers. That's racist too. I think we've exhausted just about all the possibilities. The only non-racist thing McCain can do, apparently, is concede the election.
I think McCain, by Demo-finition is a racist, due to the sheer fact he opposes THE ONE. If by some miracle concrete evidence shows up to prove Obama not being a natural born citizen, be ready for civil unrest, or even rioting, and it will be called a "just rebellon".
What would be the tipping point for the wishy-washy unwashed "center" to awaken? Who knows?? But that isn't happening as of now.

You’re a racist for mentioning his very name in an unreverential fashion.

I wonder if McCain has finally figured out that all those media types that worshipped him when he rebelled against his own party aren’t so adoring when he pushes back on a liberal.

They know that obamas relationship with ayres is indefensible and they are desperate. They know that there are two more after ayres that will doom obama and this is a hail mary to try to stop this tactic.

If Hillary was the nominee then the AP would be whining about sexism.
It is always about ideology.
The Olde Media rips on Palin because of her ideology and nobody on the right is stupid enough to claim sexism is the reason.
The left wing media is a waste of time.
To: SeekAndFind
And its sexist to accuse Palin of racism.

Brit Hume thinks it all is fair game....
So do most of the American voters.
Nobama hasn’t told us nearly enough about who and what he is.
He is pandering to the financial divides in this country, and he refuses to admit how much of his rhetoric is totally fairy tale.
Please, we must do all we can to erase this man from the oval office.

Racist??? Ayers looks white to me.
