you don't see any difference between a comment on the electability of a black candidate and someone suggesting the u.s. would have been better off electing an avowed segregationist president?

i think one reason republican's are so lost when it comes to race is because they might sincerely believe this. reid's comment was stupid. lott's betrayed a lot more than mere stupidity.
