cutthroat, fraudulent politics that lie at the foundation of Obama's supposedly uplifting campaign
This is from an original post from Mar 02, 2008. The link to the post is below.

How Barack Obama played the race card and blamed Hillary Clinton.

It may strike some as ironic that the racializing should be coming from a black candidate's campaign and its supporters. But this is an American presidential campaign--and there is a long history of candidates who are willing to inflame the most deadly passions in our national life in order to get elected. Sadly, it is what Barack Obama and his campaign gurus have been doing for months--with the aid of their media helpers on the news and op-ed pages and on cable television, mocked by "SNL" as in the tank for Obama. They promise to continue until they win the nomination, by any means necessary.

2. Anything that comes from The New Republic I would
take with a huge grain of salt.

Wasn't the editor or publisher on the committee that was raising funds for Scooter Libby's defense. TNR is a DLC mouthpiece.
