"What are the race-baiting, ignorant McCain/Palin mobs going to do now that its party is being headed up by a black man? Perhaps a better question is whether the Steele and the GOP will try to salvage this ignorant base of voters that they’ve depended on since the Southern Strategy of Nixon? GOP strategists are so used to using color-aroused campaign tactics that it’s second nature; will the party be able to cure its addiction to racism and xenophobia?," – Pam Spaulding, Pandagon.
