Adam Serwer:

I’m actually more concerned about what the reaction will be if Obama wins without a majority of the white vote. How will the conservative movement, whose standard-bearer this year has relied explicitly on identity politics and an exclusive conception of "Americanness," react? Will they spend the next few years arguing that Obama isn’t "their president" and working to convince whites that they’ve been disenfranchised simply by virtue of a black man being in the White House?

Yes they will.

Because Barack Obama will be an affirmative action hire selected by 60 million people (who suffer from white guilt) over an obviously more qualified white man who deserves it more because he was a prisoner of war.

Remember: if John McCain/Sarah Palin lose, it will be because America is racist, ageist, anti-veteran, and sexist and not because the Republican nominees. you know, suck.
