George Will is so full of it.
That's nothing new--I can't even stand to read his columns--but he confirmed my statement just now on "Nightline." He was one of the analysts, and when he was asked about Obama winning and people saying that a black candidate can't win he said 'It's over with.' (I'm using only single quotation marks because I'm not sure that I'm remembering the exact words.) He continued saying that all these people voted for Obama as just a person they liked, no regard for his race at all. It seemed that he was saying that people making decisions based on race is "over with," which IMHO implies that racism is "over with."

Then when asked about the republicans, that Huckabee won even though the republican establishment is against him, he said 'there is no republican establishment,' there hasn't been one since 1964. Huh? The republicans act in lockstep all the time, not including in campaigns of course. No republican establishment?? He is full of it.
