Another black who hates America and hates white people. He was supposedly at one time a stand up guy.
He gets no respect because he has earned none....
And this is why Republicans have trouble with minorities.....

I would be curious to see how your resume stacks up against his [on serving America]. I'm pretty sure his wouldn't point towards hating America. Especially with his record of service in the military and presidential cabinet. And there's no need for Internet tough talk. Don't say things online that you won't say in real life...

Trouble infers one losing but battling well. That is not the case. Outside of Lindsey Graham's declining whiote male pop, the GOP for POTUS and the Senate is getting shellacked.
Both Powell and you are all wet on this. There is no dark vein of bigotry in the Republican Party,. If you look for bigots or people who say stupid things, you will find them in all walks of life. It's dishonest to pick out a couple anecdotal examples of perceived racism and then smear half of the country with them.
Oh ~ there's a dark vein of racism within the Republican party and it has never been more evident than during the last four years and especially during the election.
Newsflash - the rest of the world is not laughing WITH you.
When the campaign chair of Mitt's poorly run campaign - said on national television that Colin Powell only endorsed Obama because they were both black - you could hear a pin drop in the lunchroom. When the face of the Republican party is the likes of Hannity, Rush, and O'Reilly - all of whom are insinuating that everyone who voted for is a minority AND on welfare . . . . . you've got yourself a little problem.
You've now alienated 51% of the country. And still ~ your eyes refuse to see the racist cancer amongst you.
Your party is in the process of imploding while the world watches.
If it is so offensive, how does he endorse twice and vote for twice a prez who would tolerate such language? How does OP tolerate it, for that matter. Waiting for outrage in 3...2....1. Anytime now OP jump right in with righteous indignation over Jay Carney's language. After all this is a communications specialist and expert, and ignorance is not a viable excuse. Unless perhaps Dem's have a 'get out of jail free' card when it comes to racism. Is that how it works OP?

Correct. A 126 electoral vote shellacking when the nation had 7.9% unemployed, 14.7% U6., 1.5 trill deficits, 2% GDP. an undeniable statement.
In short, the GOP was given the 400 plus yards rushing/passing the 49er QB got, and lost the game by 3 touchdowns.
We need to ask the $64,000 question: If we cannot even keep close under such stats, when could we win with the present platform? To shift just 2 states b/w 2008 and 2012, and the 2 most conserv at that..is abominable.
The core belief of conservatism is exclusion of outside groups. Intolerance and exclusion go hand and hand.
All one has to do is listen to or read conservatives to get their overwhelming disgust with millions and millions of their fellow Americans.
Conservatives absolutely believe that they are the real Americans and the real patriots. They absolutely believe that the nation should only address and serve the needs of certain deserving Americans and ignore those others.

Until Republican leaders like Powell emerge things will continue to go downhill for the GOP.
