re: #182 Perplexed

What white guilt? My last name is Ukrainian and my relatives escaped from Tsarist Russia between pogroms.

And if your family came here and made it on their own they probably aren’t Democrats.

I know many “Centrist” Democrats who are white and can’t help but mention Obama’s race when describing the job he is doing. As if “first black president” has anything to do with job performance.

So many of them put aside their misgivings because of his skin color. They will now come to realize that they, for having supported a guy largely because of his race, will pay the price for their racism.
