Honestly, I enjoy this story and the comments that come with it.
In short, some peckerwood posted a racist statement on some Young Republican up-and-comer's Facebook page and she gave it an attaboy until she went into full delete and damage control mode. Nothing like showing your stripes to get a good impression on who you are on the inside.
A couple observations. One, yes, the odds of a racist being a Republican and much, much more high than that same redneck being a Democrat. (Though I guarantee that damn near ALL of the latter voted for Hillary Clinton in any primary/caucus they might have attended last year).
Two, why the hell is a 38-year old running for head of the YOUNG Republicans? Oh wait, this is the party that runs John McCain and Bob Dole when trying to challenge youth. And who turns to Dick Cheney for good advice when he's on his porch. Never mind.
Three, yes, racism is racism. Covering it up doesn't make it go away in this day and age. Even for the GOP.
