McCain said:
"Barack Obama has played the race card, and he played it from the bottom of the deck. It's divisive, negative, shameful and wrong."
The aide was suggesting McCain had been wrongfully accused.
I say:
It was not so very long ago that Gov. George Wallace spoke of the "civil wrongs movement."
I call this "Liar's Poker" and I would rather see someone play the race card, than race to play cards.

Lets be honest. Many whites do not want a person of color. Many males do not want a woman in the white house. And many Christians are terrified of having a Mormon elected.
I sense a whiff of hypocrisy.
But suddenly, we abolish slavery, give women the vote, integrate the schools.. and now we feel we can stand upon high moral ground.
