Ah, the "N" word gambit. It doesn't matter if FDR freely used the "N" word and appointed a (former) KKK member to the S.C. and it doesn't matter if LBJ freely used the "N" word and it doesn't matter if democrat senator Robert Byrd was a former KKK member and used the "N" word up until the day he retired from the senate just a few years ago because the gambit only works on republicans.
