Beyond me? Why McCain didn’t say BTW, “Umm, not only was Wallace a racist but as most segregationists, a Democrat to boot!”
Time for McCain and Palin to use the race card, I would say. Time for them to start telling the Dems and the media “stop saying anyone who opposes 0bama is racist.” This is the real divisiveness. Republicans have always stood for equal rights for all with special rights for none. For Democrat agitators and left wing columnists and “journalists” to smear McCain supporters and 0bama opponents as racist is evil and counterproductive. They are the ones who foster racial divisions.
The outcry from the media elites would be deafening but this kind of message might just further galvanize McCain’s conservative support. And it might sway a few of those wavering voters.
