Obviously Duke likes Scalise but that doesn't mean they are buddies. Perhaps Scalise is opposed to AA. I'm sure that would make Duke want him to be elected but it doesn't automatically make Scalise a racist. It would be nice if we looked at his record before we tar and feather him. If he has ties to him and it can be verified, then sure, he's a liability and the GOP should kick him to the curb. But let's look at the hypocrisy of the left. Take Obama, for example. He definitely has ties to a racist, many of them. One of the more well known has made over 70 visits to the WH and is one of Obama's advisers but I don't see Democrats or the media shunning him for it, only defending. A glaring double standard. No one accepts racial hatred from the right, so why do we accept hate from our president and his racist friends, is it because it's hatred against whites?
