I hate when people try to make this into a race issue. The only party that's tried to make it a race issue is the democrats. Just because somebody doesn't like Obama doesn't mean we're not ready for a black president. (You're forgetting he's half white anyways, hell bill clinton was more black than Obama ) It means they aren't ready to have the most liberal senator in the country lead us. Has the McCain/Palin ticket bitched that the Obama supporters 'aren't ready for a female VP' and made it a sexism issue? No. While I'm at it, your point on 'why would they wait till now to push the issues of Obama's affiliations with ACORN and William Ayers' is not because they are flinging shit trying to get a few more votes to swing their way, it's like every other presidential election where parties sit on something until the last minute and then bring it out. THe reason is because the american people are a bunch of retards who can't remember anything. If they were to bring this issue up 6 months again it would have been a little bubble and then forgotten about by the american public. Doing it now keeps it in their mind while in the voting booths. THis is why women shouldn't be allowed to vote STOP WOMEN's SUFFRAGE!
