Racists in Howard Beach were never exactly a Democratic stronghold....

I was referring to the very first word in your post!

If I missed something that you said .. Well it's because I missed every word after the word racists!

Will you keep race baiting after Obama's defeat in 2012?

Well if you don't know the slightest thing about it then you shouldn't be commenting. I was talking about a specific neighborhood in Queens that has always been a GOP stronghold.
