169. Round Two: Mention that Obama was raised by whites
They'll play both ends against the middle. First race bait to white voters by mentioning Obama's blackness more often than Cheney's lesbian daughter was mentioned in the last election. Then when the whites are whippped into a frenzy, start talking about Obama's white mother and grandparents who raised him in Hawaii to try and alienate him from the black community.
Isn't that called reverse triangulation?
