This is so fun to watch, really. I am such a political nerd.

I agree with what Ferraro said and don't see it as racist, but a simple fact on the current attitude in the United States. But, to compare her to Rev. Wright? I think that was silly, at best.

I really am beginning to wonder what this election is going to do with racial tensions in the U.S. From the beginning I felt it was an amazing thing to watch both a white woman and black man running for president. And I still think it is. But starting to see the division and how racially it is becoming divided -- it is a little fearful as well. It will be interesting to see how it plays out.

So tell me! When do you think the Republicans will step up and add a little diversity?

Oh you guys I was joking! I've said a lot of stuff about George W. Bush but I have never said he was racist or sexist!
