Conservatives Attempt To Go (back to the future) Racist On Obama

Conservatives Attempt To Go (back to the future) Racist On Obama

A group of high-profile Republican strategists has put forward a plan that calls for running commercials linking Mr. Obama to incendiary comments by his former spiritual adviser, the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., whose race-related sermons made him a highly charged figure in the 2008 campaign. What follows is the full proposal.

“Not only was this plan merely a proposal — one of several submitted to the Ending Spending Action Fund by third-party vendors — but it reflects an approach to politics that Mr. Ricketts rejects, and it was never a plan to be accepted but only a suggestion for a direction to take,” Brian Baker, president of the fund, said in a statement.

YEAH RIGHT!!! READ THE DOCUMENT. THIS IS GOP CONSERVATIVE POLITICAL PLAY 101

THIS IS WHAT THE FORMER GOP CHAIRMAN TRIED TO PUT BEHIND. BUT CONSERVATIVE POLITICAL PLAYERS JUST CAN'T RESIST WHAT HAS WORKED IN THE PAST.

RNC Chief to Say It Was 'Wrong' to Exploit Racial Conflict for Votes

It was called "the southern strategy," started under Richard M. Nixon in 1968, and described Republican efforts to use race as a wedge issue -- on matters such as desegregation and busing -- to appeal to white southern voters.

Ken Mehlman, the Republican National Committee chairman, this morning will tell the NAACP national convention in Milwaukee that it was "wrong."

"By the '70s and into the '80s and '90s, the Democratic Party solidified its gains in the African American community, and we Republicans did not effectively reach out," Mehlman says in his prepared text. "Some Republicans gave up on winning the African American vote, looking the other way or trying to benefit politically from racial polarization. I am here today as the Republican chairman to tell you we were wrong."

Well according to many on the Right digging up stuff on Romney from the past was a sign of desperation, so recycling old material that didn't work the first time about Obama must mean something similar.
 
Who is Jeremiah Wright?

I think he designed

Rickets himself is trying very hard to distance himself from the Conservative Plan of Attack using the Southern Strategy, nationwide.

The group suggested hiring as a spokesman an “extremely literate conservative African-American” who can argue that Mr. Obama misled the nation by presenting himself as what the proposal calls a “metrosexual, black Abe Lincoln.”

A copy of a detailed advertising plan was obtained by The New York Times through a person not connected to the proposal who was alarmed by its tone. It is titled “The Defeat of Barack Hussein Obama: The Ricketts Plan to End His Spending for Good.”

The proposal was presented last week in Chicago to associates and family members of Mr. Ricketts, who is also the patriarch of the family that owns the Chicago Cubs.

Brian Baker, president and general counsel of a super PAC called the Ending Spending Action Fund, said Mr. Ricketts had studied several advertising proposals in recent months and had not signed off on a specific approach to taking on Mr. Obama.

Ricketts had not signed off on anything? yeah, just floating it by leaking it.
 
Romney is running from things too...

“I repudiate the effort by that PAC to promote an ad strategy of the nature they've described,” Romney told Townhall, a conservative website.

Biden says Rev. Wright ad planners 'act like it's 1942' - latimes.com

Conservatives will not get the GOP to use so transparent racial bait anymore. Shame on conservative players. :mad:

You mean like going back almost 50 years to find something in Romney's past? There was nothing relevant there but the left on here acted like there was.

nothing wrong with looking at candidates' pasts. what in the whacky wingnutty world are you talking-point about?

Using the old proven conservative racist strategy (no so old .. modern day GOP) not working out so well. We have crossed that bridge into the 21st century that Bill Clinton used to speak about.

This is and has already blown up in the GOP's face. It's going to be used over and over until November.

Thanks for the ammo, wingnuts!

A conservative SuperPac goes after Rev. Wright and his ties to Obama. No big smurf. It's fair game.

Pundits like Martin Bashir have been Mormon bashing on a regular basis.

Or are you suggesting that Romney backers just have to eat the shit the left dishes out like a battered wife and not strike back?
