Kansas Governor Joins The Race Baiters

Posted by Rick Barton on September 17, 2008

Things must not be looking good in Obama World.  Today’s dose of race baiting comes from Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius .  Speaking in Iowa yesterday the Governor made accusations that the Republicans were injecting race into the campaign and, and using code language.

“Have any of you noticed that Barack Obama is part African-American?” Sebelius asked with sarcasm. “(Republicans) are not going to go lightly into the darkness.”

Sebelius was responding to a question from the audience at the Iowa City Public Library about the tenacity of Democrats and whether they would fight for victory as hard as Republicans in the closing weeks of the election.

She did not elaborate on her comment.

And how is the press covering this accusation?  Ed Morrissey at Hot Air found that either AP or The Miami Herald had edited her statements in their online coverage.  

By the way, have any of you noticed that Barack Obama is part African American?’ I think that is for a number of people difficult,” Sebelius said. “I think we need to talk about the fact that that is a real issue.”

Fortunately, Ed saved a cached copy of the original column.  

We are now at a point in the presidential campaign where Obama is losing ground to McCain because people are not buying into his lack of experience, his questionable associations, his ultra far left agenda, and his inability to connect with flyover country.  The Democrat’s response it seems, will be play the race card and bet the house on “white guilt”.
