I'll ignore J. Spencer's still-tired slogging (sorry if you can't keep up!) and address this — Michigan.

Yes, it is very swing-y here, and: note that the Big Three, pressing Washington more than ever now for a bailout, know that they have leverage in the form of Michigan Electoral Votes.

What is odd is that even after Gratz, many universities and even public schools still have separate and unequal admission.

However, in the end, the pandering that the Democrats do toward non-whites and the desire of non-whites to be pander to, means that in the long run, the Democratic Party will be the only relevant political party. There is no way that the Republicans or any other conservative party will ever be able to appeal to the urban Democratic voters.

How did sorting out applications to the UC-Berkley medical school by race and ethnicity grapple with the problem of slavery. How did having a white wait list, an Asian wait list, and a black wait list differ from having a white water fountain and a black water fountain?

If the Democratic Party in its heyday has decided to stop discrimination, the U.S. would have been much better off than continuing governmetn sponsored bigotry and discrimination.

Also, the the top of the Democratic Party would have shown some leadership instead of sending their kids off to lilly white private schools and living in very expensive, all white neighborhoods, then the Democrats would have some credibility when discussing diversity.

If is hard to argue that the Democrats do not pander to minorities when they just passed a meaningless apology for slavery so that a white jew could win relection in the only district where a white represents a majority black district.

Democrats have supported forced busing, separate and unequal hiring standards, separate and unequal college admission standards, and have even gone to the point of putting quotas for elementary school magnet programs. If you add in 8a set asides and racial gerrymandering compliance with the voting rights act, the Democrats always pander to minorities.

Black voters are not even concerened about open borders and unlimited immigration because they know that the Democrats in the federal government will make put the difference with more pandering.

Wait for the polls later this week with the Macomb County numbers. You’ll know how they turned out by the shortness of breath in the Obama camp.

SD, Michigan had a republican governor (John Engler) for 12 long years until 2003 at which time our current governor inherited a huge mess. Also the VERY partisan MI legislature has been republican. Also John McCain won the 2000 R primary here. The state is considered to be up for grabs, although I have faith reason will prevail.

As far as “pandering to non-whites” goes, that's nonsense. The democrats have more appeal to diverse groups going back to the civil rights era. And all those southern democrats from the 60s? They changed into republicans when they realized their dreams of segregation were collapsing.

Yes, yes, the 93% white delegate count at last week's RNC… a myth…..
