per LizzyPop:

"...that McCain can refer to himself as President, hold weekly radio addresses like a President, and talk about what the world will think after his first-term, and no one calls him presumptuous or arrogant. Yet Obama does far less than that, and he gets called those things. She said there's obviously a lot of underlying racism to it.

She also said that Dana Milbank's quote has been debunked.

Pat Buchanan argued with her, and she said then said "if you see all of those things and don't call McCain presumptuous, yet you say that about Obama, that says more about you than it does about Obama.""
