16. Speaking In Code...Blatant Racism
For months, Camp Gramps has been playing the "sinister black man" card...especially within his base. Hate radio has all but decided Obama is a Muslim and runs around with terrorists. There's nothing one can say or do that will change their minds...and it's red meat that Gramps needs to keep his flailing campaign from becoming irrelevant. While he can't come out and say the "n" word, the guilt and fear by association is the next best thing...a Rovian game that's worked to perfection with the hate radio crowd and wingnuts.

This was to be expected...almost every election the GOOP cries about Democrats loading the voter roles with "illegals"...and this ACORN card has long been in their deck. The game here is to demonize them and set a public meme before the truth comes out. It's more guilt by association with little but inuendo. It's to create a distraction and "uproar" that not only is designed to pump up the right wing and give them an excuse should Senator Obama go on to win...but also to scare voters who did register with ACORN to stay home.

And that gets to the core of the real voter games right now. The GOOP is caging across the country and ACORN will be their justification to challenge voters and results...try to make a mess out of the election. It's all they can do. They know that if all the newly registered Democrats show up, their corrupt party loses not just the White House, but a boatload of House and Senate seats.

Cheers...
