It is so sad that knee-jerk reactions occur at every media report portraying Republicans as racists.
A week or so ago a letter from Bill Fanning spread his pro-Obama, anti-Republican fairy tale that at a Sarah Palin rally a member of the crowd yelled "Kill him," as one reporter told it, and was not immediately called to account by the governor. A later story revealed 20 Secret Service operatives attending the event investigated the threat, which was recorded on tape, and found the yell was "Tell him!"
Obviously, if Obama loses the election it will be blamed on racism, not on the fact that he is an inexpeienced far-left liberal Democrat bent on redistributing your federal tax dollars to the 40 million citizens who do not pay income taxes.
In one way I hope he is the next president of the United States so Democrats and minorities will get over whining about racism.
There are some very troubling unanswered questions in this election. Most importantly there is the inability of election officials to ensure that our elections are free of fraudulent registrations. If this election is a close call, watch out. If the Republicans lose it might be because of vote fraud. If the Democrats win it could be because of vote fraud.
Are we going to repeat the Bush-Gore fiasco?
