Vice Presidential candiate Joe Biden makes a comment about "accents" at a 7-11 and that is OK...
But a former governor said that Obama came across as lazy during a debate where he seemed...well...lazy....and THAT is a racist comment?
That was the best Powell can come up with to PROVE there was a "dark vein" of racism in the party?
