No skin off my back if a few thousand white people don't like him. I just think of Alan Keyes and how the Republicans decided McCain was a better conservative.
But Southern Democrat just posted proof that 20% of Democrat voters admitted to race playing a part. More than 8 in 10 who said it factored in their votes backed Mrs. Clinton, according to exit polls. He sure is useful, isn't he?
