Subject: RE: BS: Will Obama Win???
One distinction comes to mind. In the 60's, racism was entrenched - insidious - mainstream. There was power and inertia behind it.
Now, those people in the video are weak and marginalized. They may have believed they had a little celebration in 2004, but we're trew wit doze guys.
The Republicans need to compose an entirely new song to re-capture the independents and the mainstream. That's how it feels to me, anyway.
