SHELBY STEELE PLAYS THE RACE CARD

The subtitle to his WSJ op-ed is "This presidency flatters America to a degree that no white Republican can hope to match." and here's his main claim:
The point is that anyone who runs against Mr. Obama will be seen through the filter of this racial impressionism, in which white skin is redundant and dark skin is fresh and exceptional. This is the new cultural charisma that the president has introduced into American politics.
In his last paragraph, Steele asks this question:
In other words, isn't there a fresh new social idealism implicit in conservative principles?
The answer is a resounding NO!

The answer,according to many Clear Channel Clown phonies, like Cunningham and the lawyer who has idolized him to growing fame, Eric Deters, is Herman Cain. Both clowns have claimed to be libertarian and against the Afghan and Iraq Wars (though both supported the wars until they went bad). So what better than to demonstrate white retreat and shallowness than to fall at the feet of Herman Cain?
