In their desperation to win the election, McCalin has now turned like dogs to their own vomit, not only attacking Obama themselves but also egging on their most rabid supporters to do the same.

In an earlier post, I addressed concerns that racism might effect the outcome of this election.  I am now more convinced than ever that it won’t.  The racists don’t need to pretend to vote for Obama, they have plenty of people giving voice to their hatred (repressed or otherwise).  Check out this video that I just watched on Kagro X’s Kos diary:

I predict this thing is going to explode in the national media over the next few days.  McCain and Palin will have to scramble to distance themselves from this type of supporter and the campaign will take aggressive steps to shut them up at rallies.  Meanwhile, the average American will react VERY negatively to the story and McCain’s numbers will drop further.   I think this will innoculate Obama from the Ayers attack and, on some level, limit Team McCalin from using similar advertising in the future.

However, if this vitriol can’t be contained, things could get really ugly.  These hatemongers aren’t used to losing (most of them are young enough to have never lost a presidential election– they believe it is their right).  I am not worried we will lose the election but I am beginning to worry about what might happen after we win.  Apparently, McCain is willing to lose a life (Obama’s) in order to win an election.
