Geithner Says Obama Policies 'Incredibly Effective,' Calls Romney Claims 'Ridiculous'

A long-form meditation on what to expect:
Look for accusations of racism every time someone opposes them, and earnest navel-gazing searches for the wretched lint of racism when their polling numbers inevitably drop. It's sad, but I highly doubt the election of the first black president has actually put us in the post-racial era. The campaign sure didn't, with rampant Democratic and media race-baiting every time the GOP attempted to raise a legitimate concern about the preparedness of the candidate, the importance of his associations and the wisdom of his policy proposals.
Worth reading the whole thing.

Rubbish.
From the beginning it was a tactic of Republican operative to portray Obama and the Democrats as though they were making race an issue.
Nothing, of course, is further from the truth. Obama knew he HAD to avoid the race issue as much as possible. His strategy was to carry the white vote and not create an assemblage of aggrieved minority support.
It seems to have worked. For those of you who can only see the color of his skin, there's probably nothing I could say that could change your mind. But I suspect there are many more who are willing to judge him by his policies and his performance.
The rest will murmur while history passes them quickly by, without regret.

I read your posts, Tom, and I honestly can't tell if you're just stupid or an asshole who knows better.

Waiting for your more intelligent rebuttal, Trurl.
