Obama: "...young...inexperienced ...he’s got a funny name. And did I mention he’s black?"

By GottaLaff

Those words in the title are from Obama quoting an imaginary Republican:

At a fund-raiser in Jacksonville, Fl., presumptive Democratic nominee Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) said he expects Republicans to inject race into the campaign. Pool report from John Broder, New York Times:

Obama “The choice is clear. Most of all we can choose between hope and fear. It is going to be very difficult for Republicans to run on their stewardship of the economy or their outstanding foreign policy. We know what kind of campaign they’re going to run. They’re going to try to make you afraid. They’re going to try to make you afraid of me. He’s young and inexperienced and he’s got a funny name. And did I mention he’s black? He’s got a feisty wife.”"

They already have done that. But I love how he gets right back in their faces without missing a beat. It doesn't make up for this, yet, but it reminds me of why he's such a good candidate.
