How Does John McCain Run Against a Black Guy?
By getting Democrats to use sexist attacks against the chick, first.

When are you going to get it?

1. We don't need sexist attacks...
the record of her own actions will be enough.

(Kinda like Hillary's vote to go to war was enough)

5. I beg to differ...
he did win more votes. (yep, even the "popular vote")

So it was enough for most.

4. How does John McCain run against a Black guy? He plays the race card.
They already have Ben Stein out there doing that.

Don't be distracted by the faux cries of "sexism" and immediately blame discussion forums as if they somehow represent, speak for, or mirror the Obama organization. The comments from anonymous posters on a discussion board do not make or break a campaign.

6. Excuse Me
But when people start talking about women "voting with their vaginas" that's a sexist attack and there's plenty of it going around.

It worked against Hillary Clinton because she was forced to pull her punches. With Democrats making gender-based attacks on Palin, McCain is free to stoop as low as he wants.

8. Yes, only you get it. I can't imagine how Obama EVER got this far....
Let alone beat another woman.

Only you understand the TRUTH. Only you.

10. I Know Very Well That's Couched In Terms Offensive Here
And would ask people to put that offense on hold and think about strategy.
