1) He's black
2) They think Liberal is the same as niger.
There is no middle ground with them and the same mentality has pretty much overtaken the majority of right and it started well before the Tea P{arty with the Religious Right. It's just finally boiled over once they didn't have to hide it anymore.

I think you are wrong.
Listening to people discuss ideas leads me to believe that is the divide.
And once again...a white "liberal" brings up the race card.
Your argument is completely devoid of ideas.
You're saying that half of the voting electorate has no ideas and only see race. Meanwhile, none of them are discussing race. Only liberals are.
Did it ever occur in your narrow view of anybody who doesn't think exactly like you do...that some people might have very passionate opposing viewpoints?
Your argument has no intellectual basis whatsoever.
You call the people in the "Tea Party" 'racists" without even knowing what it is they stand for.
There isn't a single "racist" thing involved with wanting smaller govt.
I don't personally know anyone who is in the Tea Party (or at least has discussed it with me). So I would not presume to call any of them racists.
I do however know many Democrats. Hell, my whole family were Southern Democrats from the 1930's forward. And my great-grandparents and grandparents were 100% Dems...and they were also 100% racists.
Doesn't mean I'm going to stretch things and say that just because they were Democrats and racists, or George Wallace was Democrat and racist...or Democrat Robert Byrd was in the Klu Klux Klan and racist...that doesn't mean the ENTIRE Democrat party is racist.
See how silly that sounded? That's what it sounds like to people like me when we hear white liberals screaming about racists.
