Maybe It's Just Me

But race is something that never occurred to me regarding Obama's campaign, except in a very abstract way as I noted that the top Democratic contenders were a woman, a black man, and a southern white man (and that the field also included a Latino candidate with solid foreign policy experience). Apparently, I'm a little out of it.

Of course, now that I think of it, if Obama wins the nomination, watch for the "jokes." I'm sure Ann Coulter is stocking up on red meat.
