Texas GOP Delegate: McCain Will Need Racism To Beat Obama
By: Blue Texan Monday June 16, 2008 10:02 am

Texas Republicans got together for their annual book burning convention over the weekend, and appear to be in a very bitchy mood about November, no doubt a serious problem for McSame.

"I don't think anybody is all that enthusiastic" about McCain's candidacy. "McCain is not a very enthusiastic type of guy."

Insert cottage cheese-lime jello joke here.

Tarrant County delegate Tony Martinez, a contractor, called McCain too old and too moderate to snag his vote..."I resent the fact that we were forced into him to represent us," Martinez said, a reference to the GOP nomination contest all but ending before Texas voted. "I had nothing to do with his picking."

.............................

But here's the goodie:

"I don't see how he has a chance at all unless people vote only because they don't like black people."

................

Awesome. I can see the bumper-stickers. "Vote White. Vote McCain."

1. Exactly

No one likes McCain, not even his own party. He can only win with racism.

2. They will use this.

Some of it won't even be subtle. There are so many code words for 'Black" coming out of this campaign. Muslim worked for a while. Then they questioned his birth cettificate implying that he really isn't like the rest of us regular folks.

The rw emails are full of militant references that are supposed to scare voters. It won't get any better.

4. Don't forget these little Gems

"Exotic"
"Different"
"Not well known"
"Not like us"

question his patriotism

Attack his wife as unpatriotic

3. Make certain the "W" looks like the 2004 stickers, too. nt
