Nighty,

So, one comment (made in a lousy interview with Philadelphia AM sports guys, I thought I’d add), disappears your stupid idea that you’d vote for a guy based on his race, and you imply I am a simple-minded bigot?

What nerve you have. Unlike you, I never once thought of voting for Obama based on race. A huge reason for me, actually, is his work with backbencher Dick Lugar on loose nukes.

And nice try flaunting the high-and-mighty “independent” line. My assumptions about you are based on the nature of this blog(led by a man, Roger Simon, who has at turns implied that Obama is a secret bin Ladenist and an anti-Semite) and its comments section which, by its tone, seems to lead to the domination of discussions, rather than the fostering of them.

John McCain is a good man whose 2000 candidacy electrified me, but he’s going to have to go a long way to recapture that fire. McCain Obama should be quite a thing to watch.
