I'm sorry, but if this is true, then we stand no chance as a nation. One of the core themes of Obama's terrific speech on race is forgiveness. Frankly, I'm glad to see my candidate rise above the inevitable racist attacks. I wouldn't want him as my candidate if he couldn't. On the other hand, I'm saddened to see so many of his supporters succumb to the lure of cheaper instincts. For what its worth, I chose, instead, to follow the example of this man I so greatly admire.
