269. For most of them, it's not race. It's because THEY LOST.
Their ideology was rejected by the majority of the electorate and it pisses them off. If Obama was a conservative Republican, they'd embrace him with open arms--and declare any criticism of him or his policies out of bounds because of his race. It's not about race as much as it is about simple politics, IMO. They lost, and they're pissed.
