To the victor goes the spoils, indeed...........

Hm. Harry Reid makes racist remarks. There is a love fest and everyone is forgiven.

What bullshit.

I have to say, Michael Steel is right: "There is this standard where the Democrats feel that they can say these things, and they can apologize when it comes from the mouths of their own. But if it comes from anyone else, it's racism. It's either racist or it's not. And it's inappropriate, absolutely."

Harry Reid is not resigning over it, of course. But maybe that's because he knows he's going to lose his re-election bid anyway.

This is a livid example of what Obama meant when he said, "Elections have consequences." Yes, they do. The minority party gets shut out, shut down, slapped around. And the winners can conduct themselves any way they please, with total impunity. Look who's running the plantation now.

Also, I'm really starting to wonder what exactly is the point, or the benefit, to Obama never reacting the racist behavior. This isn't the playground, and they are not going to go away if you ignore them. Too much more of it and he's going to start losing the black vote.
