I couldn't believe it, and I was there. But you should have seen the looks she got after she yelled that out. It wasn't more then 3 minutes when her friends grabbed her and took her out of there, knowing that she may have started a nasty scene for herself.

I didn't know if they took her out because they feared the media would make a mockery of her, like Ashley Todd and portray her as a racist and give her life grief, or they thought that one of the black people there at the rally would find her and beat the snot out of her.

This. I have a book in the works called "Count the brothers at GOP rallies." I had a friend that went to both conventions - and she said there were few blacks at the GOP one, and even fewer young ones.

It was for media reasons - but with Steven's conviction - Bachmann's gaffes and the misfortune of the party itself, even if O loses, it will be a veto proof majority in both houses and McCain won't get jack done anyhow.
