Remember, McCain WOULD NOT criticize Obama for ANYTHING because they dropped the race card every time they did. It really freaked them out. The McCain campaign was really stumped every time they called him racist. Obama really rode the race card all the way to the White House. Those days are over. The race card has been so abused at this point that it has become meaningless. Without it, Obama is Screwed. McCain should have had the courage to muscle through that. He didn’t. Thinking back on it, he almost seemed to be playing the part of a candidate but never really fought for it. Pelosi was right, it didn’t matter WHO won the election, they were essentially the same. I worry that she will be right again.
I agree 100% regarding the race card. McCain was paralysed, believing that hitting Obama on anything that could remotely be (mis)represented as a race issue would rip his country apart.
