Buying into the GOP's cynicism
Just saw Wellington Webb, former candidate for DNC chair, on C-SPAN. He has bought the Republican race-card gambit of not being able to legitimately criticize loser-minority appointees trotted out by the administration.
This is not an exact quote, but is as close to it as I can get. The context is Webb talking about "critcizing minority candidates." Wellington is black.
Too bad for Bush: He could have rounded up some homeless minorities and placed them all throughout the government. This guy would give 'em all a pass.

"I think we have to be careful not to create a dilemma for ourselves,"he said. "Because we're in danger of losing our base."
