VDH on Obama and the race card, starts out this way:
Obama's problems with race have nothing to do with his half -African ancestry or his own experience with racism and unfairness, but boil down to his deftly wanting it both ways: reminding the Germans he is a different sort of American from what they're used to (false, they knew Rice and Powell well enough), while preempting by suggesting others will evoke race, but in a negative context. But his polls, I wager, will begin to slip from all this, because all this sophisticated triangulation is about to blow up in the public mind.
This is really tedious of Barack--he must be getting desperate. The hate and hypocrisy he directly associates himself with is coming to the fore. And he's trying to blame the rest of us for it. People are not going to put up with that.
