SHOCKING!!! A black man paid to shout "take the gloves off" at McCain rallies....
.... Thom Hartmann was just reading a blog post identifying the man as James Harris, a conservative blogger or talk show host or something. Appears that he's a paid concern troll.

7. So you know for sure that he was PAID? They really gave him money to ask his question?
We don't need to exaggerate about this so just say what you know for sure. If this guy is really a talk show host (hell, we are ALL bloggers, so that one isn't much damning evidence of much), then it was likely a set-up, but I don't want to go off on a wild tangent without knowing the facts.

And shocking? Naw, now it makes perfect sense. He was the only person of color I saw in that pasty sea yesterday. I wondered what the hell was up with that.

9. I would call him
A true believer or a kool-aid drinker before I called him a concern troll. Check out his website - the guy is a real piece of work. He hates black people, for one. He hates just about everybody, it seems like, but especially black people.
