PORTLAND, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - In a telephone interview with NEWS CENTER on Thursday, Maine Republican Chairman Charlie Webster, wanted to clarify comments from his interview with NEWS CENTER on Tuesday.
Charlie Webster says he is not a racist, and that he regrets using the words "black people", but he says he feels his comments are being taken out of context. He says his point was that voter fraud occurs in Maine.
"I still believe there are people who vote in Maine who are not residents in some of the towns and that was my point. It wasn't that they were black or chinese or they were obese, it wasnt like that it's that if you live in a small town and someone comes in and weighs 400 lbs, you usually know who that person is."

These idiots are so friggin' clueless.

(14,691 posts)Any prospective voter who isn't white and normal weight, who Charlie doesn't know, is suspect. Any normal weight white person is automatically presumed innocent. The rest of us not so much. Now the Repugs know how to throw an election in Maine and we know what they're up to. Hoist on yer own petard, buddy.
