Watched live coverage of the final debate. Made plain the genius of McCain's handlers: The only reason anyone would choose their cranky, Reaganomics-spewing conservative candidate over a vibrant, down-to-earth visionary is to portray that visionary as scary, dark, different -- a threat.
Because no one who's watched Obama and McCain go head-to-head can argue McCain's a better candidate. You'd simply have to be uncomfortable voting for a person of color for president. End of story.
