For instance, William Jacobson @ Legal Insurrection thinks there's "An Allergic

Reaction To The Race Card" coming right up:
The increasingly hysterical use of the the race card by liberal columnists, bloggers and politicians reflects the last gasps of people who, being unable to win an argument on the merits, seek to end the argument.

Perhaps, but the allergic reaction is taking place among Americans watching the Race Card being tossed, not among the tossers.
Until the suppurating buboes of their spiritual plague break out in their armpits, the Race Card players will keep on flinging.

The speak-softly-but-carry-a-sharp-stilletto neo-neocon in The racers may not win this race is pinning some hope on the people and the polls. Alas, you know what they say about holding hope in your hand:

So far, the American people don't seem to be buying the racers' arguments. Both writers cite this Rasmussen poll indicating that only 12% of Americans think opponents of Obamacare . . .

. . are racist, 67% say they’re not, and 21% don’t know.


[Does that 12% represent the hardcore of Obama support? And if so, can we have a demographic breakdown?]

Update: Answered Prayers: Powerline to the rescue! Americans Repudiate Democrats’ Hateful Strategy

In that 12 percent, we have identified the hard core of President Obama’s support–those who, if the Obama administration said the moon is made of green cheese, would believe it. Or pretend to, anyway. We can call these people the Andrew Sullivan wing of the Democratic Party. Fortunately, that group is very small. Watch for it to dwindle further as the months go by.

Finally, we have the tough-minded Jules Critten...

. . Somewhere in the vast unknown and unexplored and unrevealed continent of Obama’s mind he’s got to be thinking that when it comes to the Race Card: “I don’t feel no ways tired, I’ve come too far from where I started from.” After all, Hillary Clinton taught him the tune.

Liberals seems to believe their cries of "racism" age like the fine wine they're sipping on at a Harry Belafonte benefit concert for the Hillary Clinton Legal Defense Fund.

In a just world, saying you watch Keith Olderwomann should get the same reaction as if a person was attending the hateful organization that the Democrats created, the KKK.

Racist Democrats will always be projecting onto others their own bigotry. It's been their strategy for since God knows how long....

Exactly right, clip-on, they are absolutely bigots. Just like Charles Gibson looking over his glasses and down his nose at Sarah Palin asking questions that he didn't even know the answers to.

If one fails, it is always easier to blame it on racism than to blame it on yourself.

Wonder how many of the media elite fall into that 12%?

Seems quite a few of that 12% frequents Clipmarks as well.
