2. People...
People seem to love to overreact to statements like this. I guess it is actually a good sign that Biden must be gaining some traction.

3. I posted a response on msnbc.com because Sarah Taylor REALLY pissed
me off - called Biden a bigot. How can people be so BLIND?

On one hand I agree with you about Biden getting some traction, on the other people have always jumped in to point out the foibles of opposing candidates.

5. Just went back to see if my post has appeared, and there are quite a few pro-Biden
posts that weren't there before. I think most people realize this didn't mean what SOME would like us to believe.

6. What an arse!
I don't even know what Biden said that was wrong.

Statistics show that minorities score lower on test scores and graduation rates.

Is he trying to make something out of nothing because Obama can't seem to do anything right these days?
I actually pm-ed him with some hugs the other day when Obama was getting trashed around here.
Why do I bother to be nice?

7. My opinion
Is that people play the 'racist' card because it is so easy to play, and the subject is so sensitive that nobody wants to actually discuss what is going on. If a candidate mentions anything race-related they get their heads bit off for it, which doesn't make sense to me. I'd rather have someone who is willing to have the guts to discuss the issues.

12. That's a big part of why we're Biden supporters - he's got the guts to discuss
the issues.
