re: #8 Targetpractice, Worst of Both Worlds

Birtherism isn’t going anywhere, it just lost its megaphone for awhile. None of the GOP candidates will openly pimp it, but don’t be surprised to see plenty of “Where’s The Birth Certificate?” t-shirts and banners at GOP rallies from here to Election Day.

I slightly disagree. You’ll see it in subterranean form, yes, but the t-shirts are likely gone, if only because Obama did indeed release the birth certificate. After that, open birtherism has become a lot more crazy-seeming. So while birtherism may remain on the blogosphere, it’s gone from Fox News and public rallies.
