And now we truly do know, race trumps conviction. MLK is rolling over in his grave. Extremely disappointed in both Williams and Watts. From another article about the same thing: Michael Steele, the Republican former lieutenant governor of Maryland who lost a Senate race there in 2006, said he is proud of Obama as a black man, but that "come November, I will do everything in my power to defeat him." Electing Obama, he said, would not automatically solve the woes of the black community. "I think people who try to put this sort of messianic mantle on Barack's nomination are a little bit misguided," he said.
