Obama’s Racism-Obsessed Surrogate




Virginia state senator: 'I absolutely believe it's all about race'



The Obama surrogate who blamed the president’s falling poll numbers in Virginia on racist tactics by Republicans has a history of claiming racism.
State Sen. Louise Lucas (D., Portsmouth), told a radio host that Republican candidate Mitt Romney is “speaking to that fringe out there who do not want to see anybody other than a white person in a leadership position.”
“I absolutely believe it’s all about race and for the first time I’ve convinced my children finally that racism is alive and well,” she said.
Lucas appeared on the WHKT talk show in her official capacity as an Obama surrogate. The president’s reelection campaign refused to respond to media requests about the comment.
