GE-DNC’s finest spokespersons in action:
On Martin Bashir’s television program this afternoon, Democratic strategist and MSNBC analyst Karen Finney said that Republicans are supporting Herman Cain because of his race:
“One of the things about Herman Cain is, I think that he makes that white Republican base of the party feel okay, feel like they are not racist because they can like this guy,” Finney said. “I think he giving that base a free pass. And I think they like him because they think he’s a black man who knows his place. I know that’s harsh, but that’s how it sure seems to me.”

Since the Tea Party consider Cain’s “place” to be ensconced inside 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. at the beginning of 2013, she may be onto something. Otherwise, I’d love to know how these sorts of moments are playing in GE and Comcast’s boardrooms.
Ms. Finney certainly “cleared up” any remaining doubts Martin Bashir might have had about how racist Republican voters are. However, the clip wasn’t long enough to determine whether she believes that we think Cain is clean and articulate enough, let alone qualified to bring the likes of Bill Clinton and Ted Kennedy their coffee.
I await your follow-up, in-depth analysis of this important subject, MSNBC, as I am unschooled in the art of “diversity” and clearly a racist by virtue of my politics. So, go ahead, lean forward and whisper it to me and all 19 of your regular viewers.
I am White, I am Female, I am a Conservative, I am over 50, and I am a Republican that supports Herman Cain. Has nothing to do with his race to be quite honest, if the man were Asian with his ideals I would be for him, if he were Latino with the same ideals I would be for him. He is a well educated, well spoken, down to earth man, that talks to me as his equal, not talk down to me like the democrats do, when they try to make us voters out to be mindless idiots that don’t understand how things work, and they know better than us, what we want and need. Cain has real world experience. I like his policies. When it comes to Mitt Romney and Rick Perry, all I see there now is two little boys on the school play ground, fighting over whose ball it is. They act like little children, Perry more than Romney, but Romney bit the hook. Although I like Gingrich and Bachmann, they aren’t going to make the final cut. So before you go supposing how I feel as a Republican, you should have asked me first and not assume. Because it makes you look like an uneducated babbling idiot.
Well, you gotta understand, “racism” is no longer about things like skin color, nationality or heritage. Today, the de facto definition of a “raaaaacist” amongst the political class is simply “one who does not vote Democrat.” Once you understand that, everything else becomes clear.
