30. I think they'll concentrate on his "inexperience"
and if they do play the race card, I'd bet it will be on a subliminal level because if blatant, it would backfire big time. Sure, it might work in the South to an extent but not with younger voters, nor many of the older Democratic voters either. They've been doing that with HRC still in the campaign but when she's out, they are on their own and Obama's supposed inexperience will be their target. That is one of the reasons that HRC would kill that op by being the VP choice since no other VP candidates have her experience,nor are they as fully vetted as she is.

Still, we will need to resist the temptation to just sit back and watch the ballgame as I am so concerned that Republicans will play the "darkhorse" game to simply lull Democrats into thinking that Bush years have been so horrid, we can't help but win. That would be the mistake of the century and one that I can only imagine Karl relishing as he plans the next moves for their empire to continue their grasp on power.
